My readers are all over the world

Chapter 252 What is this chapter about?

Three or four people entered the store first. Instead of seeing the expected delicious food, they saw a room full of books.

"What is this? It's not a restaurant. It's not a restaurant. The name of the restaurant is something like sweet and sour spare ribs. I waited for nothing."

"I hate reading books the most. How dare you trick me into coming here and kill me."

"No one? I need to talk to someone about why they chose such a misleading name for the store."

"That's right, I don't even want the book for free."

The young man in black knocked on the sign outside the door. "It says on it that these are free books, not food. Lan Ling, you are blind, so find a doctor to treat you."

Lan Ling snorted disdainfully, "I'm a reckless man, I can't read, you're so powerful, why didn't you stop us at the beginning?"

"Just waiting for us to make a fool of ourselves so you can show off your power."

A little fat boy held his stomach with a bitter look on his face, "Stop arguing, stop arguing, let's find a place to eat. I'm really starving to death. I'm going to be as thin as a monkey. My mother will definitely be distressed when she sees me."

"Lose some weight, so you don't have to play truant and get out of school."

Before leaving, Lan Ling turned around and took two books with her.

His companion was puzzled, "Don't you dislike reading? Why do you bring it with you?"

Lan Ling said: "My sister likes to read this kind of miscellaneous books."

"Besides, if I don't take something that's free, I'll feel like I'm losing out."

"That makes sense." The companion nodded in agreement, turned around and went in to get two volumes.

When others saw it, they clamored to have it too.

Not long after, the few of them parted ways and went back to their respective homes.

Lan Ling is the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion in Donglin State. The Prime Minister's wife has three sons, so he has an older brother and a younger sister.

He only had a good relationship with his brothers and sisters who were born from the same mother, and he was not familiar with any of his concubines' children.

Mainly because there are too many of them and he is a little face-blind.

When Lan Ling returned home, he first went to visit his grandmother and mother, and presented them with some things he had brought back from his travels, making them smile before leaving.

Headed straight for his sister's yard.

"Miss, the second young master is here."

"Sister! Sister, your peerless second brother is back! Come out to greet me!"

Lan Ling jumped up and down, and his voice was so loud that it seemed to blow the roof off.

Lan Yunyu was startled and quickly put down her crossed legs. She picked up the half-finished mandarin duck embroidery by the maid next to her and tidied up her messy skirt.

She walked out the door in small steps, and said softly, "Second brother is back."

Lan Ling put a big package on the table and said, "Look what good things your second brother brought back for you."

He unpacked the package and introduced the rare things inside one by one.

"Oh, and here's one. Don't you like reading? I saw these two books in Beijing. The store owner said they were free, so I took two."

"You can take it if you want. You can read it when you are bored."

Lan Yunyu took the two books and glanced at the cover. "The eldest daughter is reborn?"

This name is quite different from some she had seen before.

Lan Yunyu curled her lips, but no matter where the book came from, the stories inside were basically the same.

It is nothing more than the daydreams of a poor scholar, such as rescuing a prostitute, eloping with a rich girl, and the bold fantasy of a beautiful love with a fairy in the sky.

It is inevitable to be attracted by these novel stories when watching them for the first time, but after watching them more and more, I gradually figured out that something was wrong.

Those storybooks were filled with foul and obscene fantasies about women.

Maybe it’s because the person who wrote this is not a serious man.

Lan Yunyu hasn't asked anyone to search for her storybooks from outside for a long time.

She put the two books aside and was soon attracted by other things Lan Ling took out.

After Lan Ling left, Lan Yunyu played with all the new toys he brought back one by one.

The people of Donglin are open-minded and there are no strict restrictions on women's clothing when going out. Women from ordinary families may be able to go out casually, but women from aristocratic families are not allowed to go out casually.

Especially since Lan Yunyu was about to reach the age of marriage, her mother was already looking for a family for her to marry into. She had to learn etiquette, housekeeping, embroidery and playing the piano in the boudoir...

I can’t leave here until the day I get married, but it’s just like moving from one cage to another.

All you can see in your entire life is this piece of sky above your head.

Lan Yunyu put away the slingshot and played with all those things in just one afternoon, but soon lost interest.

It would be nice if she had brought back these novelties herself.

Why can her second brother walk very far, but she can't even step out of the house?

She threw the slingshot onto the table and lay down on the couch, bored.

Her eyes fell on the two books. These were the only two books she had never opened.

Lan Yunyu likes to read storybooks. Not only is she attracted by interesting stories she has never seen before, but she also imagines the outside world through those words - the world outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, the world outside the capital, and even the world outside Donglin...

Those who write storybooks are all men. No matter how frivolous they are, their feet can travel to further places, their eyes can see more scenery, and their pens can write down what they see and hear.

And she can see further through those words.

Lan Yunyu didn't want to embroider the mandarin ducks and felt bored, so she got up and got the two books.

At least I haven't read it, maybe I can write something new.

Lan Yunyu opened it and saw the word "Introduction" written on the first page.

She was originally in a very casual posture, lying on the couch, with her legs crossed and her fingers casually resting on the book.

When she saw the first paragraph of text, her eyes widened instantly, her upper body straightened up, and she even put down her crossed legs.

This was a type she had never seen before.

She really likes it!

This female protagonist, this male protagonist, these male and female protagonists.

The introduction only takes a few words to outline the heroine's predicament and her love-hate relationship with the hero.

It also aroused her curiosity, just like an apple hung in front of a donkey's head to lure it.

She is now the seduced donkey.

"Miss, it's almost time for dinner. Let's go back and watch. The Second Young Master is coming back today, and it won't be good if we're late."

Lan Yunyu was reluctant to put down the book. Even when the maid was tidying up her messy hair and skirt, she was still reading the book.

Her personal maids Qingyun and Qingyu grew up with her, and the relationship between the three of them is closer than that of others.

Qingyun was busy while glancing at it, "Miss, this time the book is very good, it seems you have never put it down."

If Lan Yunyu wasn't doing her hair, she would have broken her head off.

Qing Yu asked, "What kind of story is this? Is it about a scholar and a young lady from an aristocratic family? Miss, you can read it, but don't take it seriously."

Lan Yunyu waved her hand, "Of course I won't take it seriously. I'm not stupid."

Marry her as wife and run away as concubine.

What girl from a rich family would give up her wealth and glory to suffer with others? That must be her brain in her mother's womb.

Before leaving, Lan Yunyu was reluctant to put down her novel.

Qingyu said, "Miss, if you don't go now, you will miss the time."

Qingyun said, "Let's come back and take a look. We can still see it when we come back."

Lan Yunyu held on tightly, her eyes wide open, "Let me read one more sentence, just one sentence, let me see what the heroine said."
