Chapter 207 Illiterate

"Didn't you travel from south to north and know where to buy illicit salt?" Murong Shuo asked quietly. After asking, he reached out and put his arm around Xiao Gong's shoulder, turned her around, and waited for her to answer.

"Illegal salt?" Xiao Luo guessed that Murong Shuo had something to ask her, but he didn't expect him to ask her about private salt. In fact, how can she know so much about private salt. What was not written in his book, she did not dare to say nonsense. After all, it was a world she wasn't familiar with. How the rules are played, she is still not sure. So as soon as Murong Shuo asked, she was stunned. She didn't even care about Murong Shuo's affectionate gesture of holding her shoulder.

Murong Shuo couldn't help but feel funny when he saw that Xiao Gong was stunned by his question. The hand holding her shoulder, wanting to let go, finally hesitated a few times, and then let go, waiting for Xiaogong's answer.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Xiao Gong come back to his soul, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

"Ah, nothing, why are you asking me, aren't you very smart?" Xiao Gong was asked by Murong Shuo, and then he returned to his soul and asked.

"Cleverness is relative, you can say whatever you know, and you can take it as a brick throw. Murong Shuo smiled and said patiently.

"Throwing bricks and leading jade? Look at it this way, you're really narcissistic. Xiao Gong stopped again and said dissatisfied.

"Narcissism?" Murong Shuo frowned, what are these words.

"You're so smart, do you still need me to explain? I've always said it literally, you're smart, you're smart, don't make such a detour. Xiao Gong shook his head, thinking about the matter of private salt. Then he thought of something and said, "I don't know where to buy and sell the illegal salt." Buying and selling this thing, though. The reason why it has always been banned is because it is profitable. The cost is cheap, of course, it is cheaper than the official salt. It's just that the people who make zuò are not very careful in smelting, so there will be poisoning incidents. ”

"Makes sense. It doesn't seem like you don't know anything. And listen to you, it's organized. You should have read the book. I didn't expect you to go north and south, and still have time to study. ”

Murong Shuo agreed with what Xiao Gong said, and also thought that her words were very reasonable. But such a reasonable statement is not something that ordinary people can understand after listening to the story. This is clearly her own conclusion. If you don't have a certain foundation, even a reader who has studied hard for more than ten years will not have such an opinion as her.

"Don't look down on people so much, okay. You're here to humiliate me. Or did you come to me for help?" Xiao Gong frowned. Now, she can also hear a lot of Murong Shuo's trap words. She's really been trained by him to be a lot smarter.

"Just ask, and you'll know I look down on you. But you've really read the book, and you'll admit it. Murong Shuo smiled, she has indeed grown a lot now.

"Confess what, I'm illiterate. The little gong shrugged. Killed and denied.

"You can't read?" Murong Shuo didn't believe it.

"yes, when did you see me reading. I'd say those. I just heard that the book and the lady said it. Xiao Gong laughed. She has studied, and she is still nine years of compulsory education to undergraduate, and she is still a year away from graduating. These things, how could she not have some opinions of her own. It's just that she is really illiterate in this world. Traditional Chinese characters, even guessing with meng, how can she recognize them all.

"That's not true. What do you see on that signboard?" Although Murong Shuo had never seen Xiao Gong reading, he still didn't believe it, and pointed to the signboard on the side of the road and asked.

"Well, you have to take the test to believe me, don't you? Which signboard?" Xiao Gong was helpless, Murong Shuo just put it down with a finger, there were so many signboards she didn't know, she really didn't know which one it was for a while.

"It's the signboard with the word 'Bao' (treasure). Murong Shuo saw Xiao Gong asking, but he still pointed at it casually and replied.

"Which one is the signboard with the word 'treasure'? It says I don't know how to read. There are so many signboards, I know a 'wine' and a 'ju' over there, but which is the word 'treasure' you said?"

Xiao Gong really couldn't recognize it, his eyes widened, and his eyes were about to pop out, but he still couldn't find the word Murong Shuo said. She can actually guess, and she also guesses that behind the word 'poly', it is very likely that the word 'Bao' is the word. But since they all said they didn't know each other, of course they had to stick to the end.

"You really can't read!" Murong Shuo saw that Xiao Gong was not lying, and he frowned even more and couldn't figure it out. Obviously, behind the 'ju' she knew, it was the word "bao" he asked her to find, but she just couldn't recognize it.

"I told you a long time ago, but you don't believe it. Why don't you teach me how to read? What is the word 'Bao', I learn things very quickly, you sue me, I'll know next time. Xiao Gong said obediently. She really loves to learn. I learned traditional Chinese characters, and sooner or later I will have to use them here. Otherwise, do you want her to write simplified characters to expose herself?

"Right next to the word 'Ju' you know, the whole signboard reads 'Ju Bao 斎'. "Murong Shuo really taught.

"'Jubao Zhai'? It looks like this, and the next time you see me, you'll know you." But whether I can write it, I don't know. Sir, will you continue to teach me?" said Xiao Gong, half jokingly and half seriously.

"There's a chance. Your young lady is so partial to you, didn't she teach you?" I didn't expect Murong Shuo to really agree, but he still asked puzzled.

"I don't think so. Besides, you are the first person in the house to know that I am illiterate. Anyway, I'm honest enough with you, I'm funny enough. "Xiao Gong doesn't care.

"yes, there's an extra burden to teach you to read. Murong Shuo shook his head, saying so, but he wasn't too bored. It seems that he is used to the small gong giving him trouble.

"Oh, those who can work harder. That's right, there are so many signboards on the road now, you can teach me to recognize these signboards first. Xiao Gong hurried to the point. During this time, she stayed honestly by the side of the crown princess, just because she didn't know anything, and she didn't know anyone who didn't smear her eyes, so she couldn't enjoy shopping.

"Teach you to recognize signboards...... You used to walk on the street a lot, don't you know each other?" Murong Shuo asked strangely. She wasn't a big lady who didn't leave the door before, and she didn't even know the signboards on the street, so how did she live before?

"I don't know words, but I know shapes. Moreover, each store has its goods on the outside, so I can tell what it is selling at a glance. In this world, you can live without knowing words. Xiao Gong was asked by Murong Shuo, and she almost showed her stuffing, but fortunately, she walked in front, and she was in a hurry, so she was prevaricating. (To be continued.) )
