A Treasure-Filled Junkyard
Upon reflection, Su Xiaoxiao marveled at how remarkable Jiang Yexun was in setting and achieving his initial goals. This realization filled her with admiration, evident in the way she gazed at him.
Jiang Yexun, noticing Su Xiaoxiao's sudden admiring gaze but unsure of its cause, cleared his throat awkwardly and said, "I'll start looking for the books. Besides the science and math series you mentioned, is there anything else you're interested in?"
"Ancient books, nothing else," Su Xiaoxiao replied after careful thought.
During these times, many old books were classified under the "Four Olds," leading people to conceal them within piles of other books or newspapers rather than destroying them outright. This method allowed them to claim, with clear conscience, that the old books passed down through their families were not destroyed by their own hands. Instead, they were simply finding a place where the books could be preserved safely.
