Collection of the most beautiful compositions (past events)

Xinhua Bookstore is behind the sixth primary school, because you have to walk into the hutong in class and pass by every time.

The bookstore has two floors. My friends and I often go there after school every afternoon to enjoy the ocean of books. At that time, I was always fascinated by those thick dictionaries, and I also liked reading encyclopedias and literary books. There are many opportunities to enter and leave the bookstore. I found that there is always a counter on the east side of the hall with all kinds of small pictures on it. It's so interesting. What is this for? I often stop to watch and know the grandfather at the counter. I know from my grandfather that it's all stamps and credit. Some Datong universities and adults often come to buy them. I just looked at them.

It's the fourth grade. Because I attended the computer training class, my math is surprisingly good, and my parents love to give me more pocket money. I can finally buy some books I like. One day after school, I passed the bookstore with the book I just bought, and I was still looking at grandpa's colored stamps. Grandpa asked if he wanted to send me an acridine, and said to see what I like. I politely said no, grandpa was very enthusiastic, and finally gave me a book, which I was very happy to put in.

In the evening, under the warm yellow light, I leafed through the books and admired the little stamp. I am surprised that such a small place can be painted so beautifully. The picture clearly depicts a gray-brown mouse, which is lifelike on a golden background. It's really beautiful. Since then, I have loved stamps, frequented bookstores, looked at grandpa's stamps and bought some back. I found that he really has many kinds of stamps, big and small, and the prices are different. Some are very expensive. I remember tens of dollars. Some azaleas and Zhou Enlai are very expensive. Grandpa said that large stamp sheetlets are generally more expensive. He said those stamps were all early and very expensive, and told me not to buy such expensive ones. He recommended me a new sheetlet, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and only charged me 55 cents. See this 1995 Romance of the Three Kingdoms stamp, which is long and shows the burning of Chibi, with a face value of five yuan. I bought it happily ~ ~ I was attracted by these charming stamps and spent an unforgettable primary school year.

Entering junior high school, because of the long journey, I can only go to the bookstore occasionally to find Grandpa Zhao. It is said that Grandpa Zhao is a retired employee of the Municipal Education Bureau. After retirement, setting up a stall is just a hobby. His counter went to the mezzanine between the first floor and the second floor, and his legs and feet were not good, only occasionally two or three times a week. 1997, when I went to buy stamps, Grandpa Zhao happened to be there, where I met a middle-aged man. Grandpa introduced him as Uncle Kim. He said that this is a famous figure among our Langfang mail fans, and there is also a number one in Beijing! Uncle Kim is smiling. Later, I gradually got to know Uncle Jin. After learning that he didn't work, he sold stamps for a living, and I didn't ask him why he didn't work. Wow, Uncle Zhao, who just paid cash at that time, had too many stamps, which were several times more than those of Uncle Zhao in the bookstore. He always sells two bags of postal books outside the post office and only goes in when it is stormy. I often go to see him on weekends, and he is also happy to chat with me. What I didn't know at that time, I thought it was father and son, which shows how well we know each other. Once he invited me to his house. His family lives on the fourth floor of the top floor of a residential area. After entering, I saw a simple house with two bedrooms, simple but slightly dark. He served tea and water politely and brought snacks. He is very polite. I had a nice chat. He also showed me a lot of stamp albums in his home. There are many old and new stamps in it. I asked him, and he said that these were all from friends and he bought them in other places. Some of them are afraid to sell without knowing the price. If the price is too low, it will be bad for customers. I commend his opinion. I asked him if the big brother in the photo was in college, or did he say he should leave it to him? No, but he doesn't like it. I have much contact, and I often rely on Uncle Jin to go to the flea market to Taobao during holidays. He said that if you study well, you can play with me more in the summer vacation, but you can't start school.

During the unusually hot summer vacation that year, we shuttled between Langfang flea market and Beijing postal market. Brother Jin taught me a lot about stamp collecting appraisal, and I also made many friends of the same age, some of whom were members of stamp collecting associations since childhood. Lao Jin said that I can actually do it, but I'd better study first and don't compete with them. The first time I saw Mei Lanfang's stamp sheetlets and other exquisite sheetlets that day was in a book called Stamp Catalogue, with a total of 84 stamps. That was the year when I was born. Their artistic atmosphere fell deeply into my heart, and I vowed to collect all the stamps of 1984 and Mei Lanfang's sheetlet. At the same time, I also found many things I already have, such as the Year of the Rat, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Camellia, World Peace Year, Laoshan Taoist and so on. Since then, I have secretly saved money and worked hard for those stamps I like. At 97.98, the postal market soared, and the prices of various fine stamps rose wildly. The price of those stamps I like is even more incredible. I have no choice but to ask for money from home, but I dare not ask for it all the time, but my parents have always loved me so much that 1200 yuan has been sent to me.

At that time, I was so obsessed with collecting stamps that my grades dropped. Some smelly friends at my school always encourage me to look for stamps. Well, I'm in trouble. The news of the decline in academic performance was still known by parents. After the parent-teacher conference, my father scolded me, saying that if I did this again, it would be a disgrace to my family. I regret myself very much, but I still love collecting stamps. It's the third grade, and the grades continue to decline. Is it really a toy? But stamp collecting books, newspapers and periodicals will still come to my house to read. Some things can't be hidden from children. In constant contact with Lao Jin, he felt my situation and was very concerned. Ask me about my study every time. Now everyone regrets it. I should have listened to my parents and Lao Jin earlier. Finally, through the efforts of the last few months, I finally lived up to expectations and was admitted to a better high school. Finally, I have a good school, and my parents are very happy. I continued to find friends like Lao Jin to play with stamps in the summer vacation before my promotion. Of course I was happy that summer vacation, but Lao Jin didn't seem as enthusiastic as before. At the turn of the century, the postal market stirred up the last madness. So did I. I spent all my lucky money and pocket money on buying stamps and collecting stamps, but the money I saved was far from my dream stamps.

The study in senior high school is much deeper than that in junior high school. Mathematics is more difficult and difficult to understand. English is getting deeper and deeper, and I can't keep up soon. Seeing parents is more anxious, after all, it is high school! No matter how I explain, I can't do it. I have to attend make-up classes and extracurricular tutoring on Saturday and Sunday. My parents told me to stop fooling around with some classmates. In this way, the contact opportunities with Lao Jin gradually became less and less. I still spare no effort to find opportunities to look for him and visit the stamp market, but Lao Jin always deliberately avoids it and seems to be very busy. When I saw Lao Jin on Wednesday, I was informed that if I had time to visit him at the weekend, he helped me get the yearbook of 1984, and I was very happy. Of course I know, and I have to bring money. From Wednesday to Friday, from Saturday to Sunday afternoon, I finally got a chance to go to his house. Carefully put 1500 yuan in the envelope and go straight to Laojin's house.

I remember that day when the clouds were so white and I was in a particularly good mood. Press the doorbell of 40 1 tightly at the door of the unit, and Laojin kindly invited me up as usual. After greeting, I can't wait. Laojin finally took out a stamp album and a thin commemorative album from the back room. I stood up, my mouth full of thanks. He smiled and asked me to do it. He said and took out 1984 People's Republic of China (PRC) Stamp Yearbook for me to have a closer look. In the meantime, he kept telling me how to identify the stamps inside, such as paying attention to whether there are scratches, whether the adhesive is good, whether the gold powder is oxidized, and how to identify the perforations. I have benefited a lot. There are not only my first mouse 1984 in the yearbook, but also the pictures of ladies and the peony pavilion series stamps that I miss very much? This makes me very happy. When I took out a dozen dollars from the envelope and gave it to him, Lao Jin just counted it at random, and finally left 1000 yuan and returned the rest to me. No matter what kind words I said, he refused to accept them. I am really grateful. You know how low it was then. The whole set 1984 was almost 1200 yuan. He also prepared a big, tightly packed jacket box for me, put the two stamp albums in it, put them on my lap, and then sat down to have tea and chat with me. He is still very concerned about my study, and I find it difficult to change the subject. He always told me to study, saying that going to high school is very important, and choosing a university in the future should be professional and combine work and rest. Finally, he specially sent me downstairs and waved goodbye. Who knows this goodbye and never meet again?

It was two months before I learned the secret in the second postal book.

One night at the beginning of the second year of high school, when I looked through the stamp album of the year I was born again, I thought of Laojin, who had not seen me for more than a month. There is no one at home, and he can't be found in many places. Grandpa Zhao from the bookstore doesn't know where he went. When I came back to reality from thinking, my mobile phone accidentally turned to the album I got from his house, and I opened it. The thick booklet is a bit strange. There should be only one commemorative list, but what's behind it surprised me. In addition to the 1984 excellent stamp commemorative edition, there are 16 gold ordinary stamps. I leaned down and studied it carefully, only to know that this is Mei Lanfang's most famous commemorative stamp, but it is a big surprise at this moment. I was cheated at that time and was happy for a while, but I wondered if I had taken it by mistake, but I knew he wouldn't have this set of stamps either. I picked up the active email page, and suddenly several pages written on grid paper appeared behind it.

Yes, it's Lao Jin's handwriting. I read it carefully, okay? The words written on the stationery are for me.

He said: I'm glad to know you these years, an interesting child. It also brought a lot of happiness to my life. I'm sorry to learn about your study recently. I know you like collecting stamps now, but it's not something you should do at your age. I hope you study hard and have great ambitions in the future! In the future, you should have your own glory. Don't spend too much time on it now. Your future ideals and revenge should not be confined to square inches. I know you are an honest boy. This set of stamps should be worthy of you I will give it to you. I hope you can concentrate on your study! In fact, the ocean of stamps is deep, and you still have a long way to go, so I can't cheer for your college entrance examination. I will bless your old friend Kim in the distance.

When a few pages of stationery were removed, there was an Arami Lanfang sheetlet with a colorful sky blue background. I felt a heat flow from my heart, and then spread around, as if all my blood were boiling. A few pages of letters, between the lines, sincere, I didn't sleep that night ~

I haven't seen him or been to the stamp market in the past two years. Occasionally, when I see a stamp album, I will think of him and wait for no one. I was really nervous before the college entrance examination, and it was also under the urging of this force that I finally passed the college entrance examination and was admitted to the university.

College life can be said to be rich and colorful, and I have made many good friends. They love sports, music, literature, photography and, of course, stamp collecting. I found friends again, but I'm not as crazy as before. After graduation, I returned to my hometown, and I officially became a member of the best company in this city. I know there is old Kim's affection in this.

After returning to the city, I took a heavy commemorative album to visit Laojin's house. When the door of 40 1 was opened for me again, a strange face appeared inside, and I found that the philatelic booth of Xinhua Bookstore was missing. Later, I learned from an old stall owner in the deserted Triangle Post Market that Lao Zhao of Xinhua Bookstore died the year before last, and Laojin seems to have returned to his hometown in Shaanxi. He said that the postal market is depressed now, and he plans to stop doing it. I asked him about Laojin's details, only to know that Laojin's family was in Shaanxi. Later, his son got bone cancer. In order to treat his son, he sold many collections left by his father. So he moved here to treat his son? Later, my son left, he lost his job, and his wife left him two years later. He used the remaining stamp products to do some small business between Beijing and Langfang. He said that he didn't get married again when he met him two years ago.

It turns out that that set of Mei Lanfang stamps was collected by Laojin's father. Two generations of fathers love their sons.
