Chapter Ninety-Nine: Borrowing Books

"Yo, the Xia family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIs your bun business not bad? It's all meat. A woman inquired vaguely.

The seven or eight people in the car also pricked up their ears to listen, for fear of missing the way to make money.

"Fat aunt, when will my family stop eating meat, as soon as my father goes into the mountains to hunt, I will have meat to eat." Xia Cao Tong said unscrupulously, choking back what the man said.

If you want to inquire about their steamed bun business, you can't care about it. Her family earns half a penny every day, and she still wants someone to cut off the paste, but Xia Cao is the first to quit.

Xia Cao said it well, although the crumbling thatched hut they lived in couldn't stand Xia Muhan's ability to hunt, and occasionally they still ate meat. This is a strange phenomenon in their Taoli Village in the past, the poorest in their village, but they can eat meat.

"Xia's family, your buns are sold out so quickly, I heard from relatives that they sometimes don't sell out until dark." The woman still didn't give up.

"Thanks to Li Yuanwai's care, they come to my house every day to ask for steamed buns." Xia Qiaomu said.

"Big brother, now my father is helping Li Yuanwai and the mayor of the town to do things and take care of our business, shouldn't it?" Xia Cao sang and drank with her eldest brother, and in order to protect their family's business, she did not hesitate to use the mayor's tiger skin to scare people who wanted to beat their family's steamed bun business.

Sure enough, when Xia Cao said this, the car quieted down, and no one dared to ask any more.

As soon as they got home, they had lunch, and when they woke up in the afternoon, they began to study the words they borrowed today.

Xia Cao is painful to the dense words on it, this ancient people are written vertically, looking from right to left, Xia Cao is still not used to reading like this, the habit of reading books in the previous life has been deeply rooted, and it is not easy to change.

The ancients wrote books in large paragraphs, and didn't they divide them into small paragraphs? There is no punctuation, and no illustrations. Xia Cao didn't know that paper was expensive in ancient times, and everyone wanted to reduce the blank space on the paper as much as possible to save costs.

Xia Cao watched it for an hour, dizzy, the storyline in it was too dull, there was no wonderful plot in it, she really couldn't stand it, she couldn't read the book at the beginning and knew the end.

"Big brother, second brother, go on! I went mowing the grass. Xia Cao said.

Xia Qiaomu and Xia Maihe hadn't seen any scripts, but they watched them with relish, and they just responded to what Xia Cao said, without raising their heads.

When the summer grass came back, the two of them still maintained their original movements, still sitting on the chairs and reading the book.

Xia Cao has a sense of superiority in front of her eldest brother for the first time, she has never seen the world, she can see such a little thing, and when I get a few good books out in the future, I will scare you to death. Xia Cao thought proudly.

"Big brother, big brother!" Xia Cao patted Xia Qiaomu on the shoulder and said.

"It's getting dark, it's time for you to cook. If you don't do it for my sister today, you can have a good rest today. Xia Cao said with a small abacus.

"No, I'll go cook." Xia Qiaomu put down his book and walked towards the kitchen.

Why didn't the eldest brother fall for it? It's also a nuisance to have too good self-control, Natsukusa thought.

Xia Cao picked up the book that the eldest brother had just put down, and turned a few pages, mainly telling the story of a generation of virtuous Liu Tong, of course, with a little mythology, such as when he was born, thunder and lightning, and the sky was strange.

Xia Cao couldn't read it after reading a few pages, which was too. The ancients were quite capable of bragging.

"Second brother, get up!" Xia Cao shouted loudly at Xia Maihe's ear.

"What's wrong!" Xia Maihe jumped up in fright, looked around in a panic, and only saw Xiaocao alone, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Second brother, we have to feed the chickens and rabbits." Natsukusa said.

If it weren't for the fact that she had to clean the nest after feeding, she could do it alone.

When Xia Muhan came back in the evening, he was still holding a lot of books, saying that they were lent by Li Tang, in addition to the books, there were a lot of others, and as soon as Xia Cao took it, it was actually a female ring, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and she quickly put it back, this Li Tang is too unreliable.

Xia Cao actually wronged Li Tang, Li Tang went to his brothers last night, and each borrowed a dozen or so books. At the end of today's practice, Li Tang remembered that the book he had deducted from his brother had not been borrowed yet, and it was so late, and Xia Cao and they were not in the town, so he could only ask Master to wait and help him bring it back to Xia Cao.

Several other teenagers saw this situation, thinking that it was no wonder that Li Tang had to be taken care of by Master Xia many times, it turned out that he was a bribe! I didn't expect him to have this kind of means when he looks like a tiger on weekdays!

On the spot, they told Xia Muhan that they also had free books at home, which they could lend to Xia Cao for them to study. Give and accept bribes, they will also, learn and sell now.

Li Tang regretted making such a group of fox friends more and more, and every time he wanted to pit him and pull him back. That boy didn't have any books, but when he saw that the number was not enough, he couldn't do it! I went to his mother to borrow a few books to make up the numbers, so there was a strange female ring.

There are a lot of books, so you have to classify them first, and Xia Muhan specially made a simple bookcase for these books to be placed at night.

Natsucao now has a rich collection of more than 100 books, but some of them are duplicates.

Xia Cao and the others discussed reading these scripts first, recording them, and discussing what they wanted to create.

However, Xia Maihe was not as happy as before, and after dinner, he walked out of the house sullenly and circled in the yard.

Xia Cao saw Ma Daha's second brother for the first time, he was actually troubled, what a surprise!

The moon hangs high in the sky like a jade plate, and the night sky is dotted with stars. Xia Maihe stood alone under the shadow of the moon, and his back looked a little lonely.

"Second brother, why are you here alone! Don't go back to the house to read? Xia Cao patted Xia Maihe on the back and said.

"No, I'm going to eat too much, so I'll come out to eat it." Xia Maihe denied it.

"Second brother, just like you! It's all written on my face, and I want to hide it from your cute and smart sister. Xia Cao said shamelessly.

"Sister, I just heard from my father that a few children followed him to learn archery, and I am my father's son, and they haven't learned yet. Is it because my basic skills are not solid, and my father won't let me learn them? Xia Maihe said.

It turns out that the second brother is jealous of those people who can learn archery from his father! After all, since childhood, the second brother's wish was to learn archery from his father.

"Second brother, you want to learn archery! It's not good to tell your dad directly. Dad told them to shoot arrows, after all, we are still living in the town, and the mayor of the town can't offend them. Xia Cao said.

"Then let's go in and find Dad, the first few times it was the wrong time. Now that there are such young children studying together, my father will definitely agree. (To be continued.) )
