Chapter 52 Borrowing Books
"Do you really need to know the reason for being rejected?" The family member seemed somewhat puzzled.
Gu Fuqiao nodded, "Yes, you must find out, otherwise how will you know why you couldn’t make it this time?"
The military wife thought for a moment, feeling there was some sense to it, and nodded, "You’re quite right. If I have any questions, can I come and ask you?" Her expression was somewhat hesitant, probably fearing rejection from Gu Fuqiao. Before Gu Fuqiao could answer, she added, "I live right next door to you, asking questions won’t take much time."
Gu Fuqiao knew that this was likely because the original owner’s high-cold impression was too distinct, so most people probably still felt...
She naturally wouldn’t tread the original owner’s aloof path, so she nodded and said, "No problem, if there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me directly. If I know, I’ll definitely tell you."
Upon hearing Gu Fuqiao’s words, the family member smiled, showing a row of neat teeth, "Alright, I live next door in 302, my name is Chen Bajin."
Bajin? That’s quite an interesting name, Gu Fuqiao smiled and nodded, then picked up her letters and headed out.
Not far from the military compound was a street. After buying stamps and sending her letters, Gu Fuqiao suddenly remembered that the original owner’s journals weren’t quite to her taste, so she decided to go out and buy a couple of books.
In this era without computers and smartphones, people’s knowledge and news sources mainly came from books, making bookstores particularly popular. Gu Fuqiao quickly found three or four bookstores on the street, but she was dissatisfied because they rarely had the books she wanted, mostly agriculture and industrial science texts or quotes from various leaders.
