Chapter Twenty-Six: Flickering
When Liu Fuzi announced the end of class, the rain had stopped, Yu Shu's shoes and socks were still tidal, and the podium was littered with the homework that was rejected by the master after yesterday's correction, and a group of people surrounded him, Yu Shu did not find Yu Xiaoxiu's, this discovery made her happy, bumped Yu Xiaoxiu's shoulder, and secretly gave him a thumbs up:
"Little repair, little repair, you're amazing."
Yu Xiaoxiu was embarrassed by her praise, pulled down her gesture, and whispered: "It's only right once, what's so powerful." ”
Yu Shu stuffed the rejected piece of homework paper into Xiaohua's bag, pushed Yu Xiaoxiu's shoulder and walked out:
"A penny is money, what do you know, go back and do your homework today, and strive to get in again next time."
In Yu Shu's opinion, the sons and ladies of those Yixue families inevitably have elders at home to open a small stove, and if there is anything they don't understand, the elders will teach it in private.
"Yu Shu, you stand still!"
The two walked outside the private school and were stopped by someone shouting, Yu Shu turned his head to look at the young man who was chasing him out of the pavilion, jumped in front of her in three steps and two steps, and asked angrily:
"Why are you scolding me in class?"
"Did I scold you?" Yu Shu took a step forward, raised his head, and said without showing weakness, "What did I scold you?" ”
"You say, I have long ears, and I belong to a donkey." Xue Wenzhe said angrily, he is the only son in the family, his father is from a scholarly family, and he is quite favored at home, and he has never heard such unpleasant words when he is so old.
"Are you a donkey?"
"Of course I'm not a donkey!"
Yu Shu spread his hands, "That's not it, I'm not scolding you, I'm asking you, you see-are you a donkey?" This is clearly a question, can't you even tell the difference between the question? ”
"Who, who said I couldn't tell the difference, of course I could tell."
"It's good to be clear," Yu Shu nodded, "Then are you okay?" ”
"I, I-" Xue Wenzhe's throat stuck, looking at Yu Shu with an innocent face, and suddenly forgot what he was trying to do when he stopped her.
"If there's nothing to do, then we'll go, see you tomorrow," Yu Shu pulled Yu Xiaoxiu, waved his hand at Xue Wenzhe and saw him again, and the sisters and brothers went out of the Sanjue Book House together.
When he went out, Yu Xiaoxiu sighed: "I originally thought Xue Wenzhe was very good, but now I say that he is so good." ”
"Ha Luha, what a fart, it's clear that your sister and I can fool." Yu Shu said proudly, I don't know what Lu Dao is for, there is always an inexplicable sense of accomplishment in bullying the little fart children in ancient times.
"Don't use foul language."
"Huh? Did I just say foul language? ”
"Less garlic, you said."
"What did I say?"
"Talking."
"Xiao Xiu, don't say foul language."
"You're fooling me."
***
Yu Shu had already told Yu Xiaoxiu last night that he was looking for something to do outside, and he didn't change into men's clothes when he went out today.
Yu Xiaoxiu saw her put on a shrunken robe, and finally knew who stole the clothes she lost.
"You dress up like this, be careful not to be bumped into by acquaintances, otherwise it will reach the ears of the third master, and if you discipline your aunt, you will inevitably be beaten."
"Don't worry, I'll pay attention," Yu Shu didn't worry about this, not to mention that the Changmen shop street is so big, it's not easy to bump into acquaintances, even if she is recognized, she is not afraid, her ability to pretend to be stupid is first-class.
"These are for you," Yu Xiaoxiu took a small bag of things and handed them to Yu Shu.
Yu Shu opened it and saw that it was the handful of change she gave Yu Xiaoxiu yesterday, and refused to ask for it, "What do you want for me, it's yours." ”
"You take it, since you are working in the paper and ink shop, say a few good words to the boss, buy some paper and ink cheaply, and save me another trip."
Yu Shu thought about it, so he picked up two dimes of silver and checked it, rewrapped the remaining half of the piece, and handed it to Yu Xiaoxiu: "That's enough, I have a good relationship with the shopkeeper, if you don't have so much money, you can keep it and spend it when it's useful." ”
Yu Xiaoxiu didn't doubt him, so he took it and wrapped the cloth again.
"I'm leaving, I'll come back for dinner in the evening," Yu Shu walked to the door, turned his head and glanced at the two packs of snacks on the top of the wardrobe that Yu Xiaoxiu cherished and put away, and teased:
"Don't be reluctant to eat those snacks, turn around and be gnawed by mice, you can cry."
Yu Xiaoxiu pursed his lips and said disapprerovingly: "Don't worry, our poor family won't even come to the door." ”
***
Yu Shu stood at the door of Mianzhai, looked at the door of the store that covered half of the door panel, and looked inside.
There were no customers in the store, and only Cao Zixin was sorting out the shelves.
Yu Shu walked in wonderingly, leaned on the counter and said:
"Shopkeeper? Not doing business today? ”
Cao Zixin turned his head when he heard this, and when he saw that it was Yu Shu, he said, "I'm going to go out later, and I won't do business in the afternoon." ”
"Huh?" I didn't say it early to rest, so she ran for nothing, "Then I'll go back." ”
"No, wait until you go with me."
"Where are you going?"
"Vientiane Street."
Yu Shu's understanding of Yiyang City is limited to the Ji family's mansion - Sanjue Book House - Changmenpu Street, and when he heard other place names, he was confused.
"What are you doing on Vientiane Street?"
"Business has been cold these days, so I'll ask a feng shui gentleman to come over and give me some advice."
Mr. Feng Shui? It seems that Vientiane Street is where Yi scholars do business.
Yu Shu came to God, she came to Da'an Dynasty for a while, although she learned Yi in Sanjue Study, but her understanding of this easy-to-learn rampant world is still only on the surface, and she is happy to have the opportunity to see the world.
"Then let's go."
"Don't worry, help me put these two boxes of brushes on the opposite shelf."
"Okay."
Yu Shu helped Cao Zixin finish the little work in his hands, and when he saw him go to the door shield, his mind moved, and he said:
"Shopkeeper, write something and stick it on the door."
"Huh?" Cao Zixin stopped his movements and turned his head to look at her in confusion.
"When you close the door during the day, and there are guests in the afternoon, you may misunderstand that you have to rest for a few days, so you go to someone else's house to buy something first. You write a notice and stick it on the door panel outside, telling the guests that the store is closed this afternoon, and will open as usual tomorrow. ”
Listening to her idea, Cao Zixin's eyes lit up, and he nodded: "This method is good, go and draw a piece of rattan paper." ”
"Okay."
Cao Zixin returned to the counter and studied the ink, flattened the paper, and wrote down two lines of large characters with a few strokes:
The shopkeeper is out, please be early tomorrow.
Cao Zixin dug up a little paste and smeared it on the back of the paper corner, gave it to Yu Shu, went out and closed the door, pasted it in the door panel, looked at the black paper and white characters, the more he looked, the more satisfied he became, and glanced at Yu Shu, who was clever with his eyebrows and eyes, and couldn't help but like:
This kid just has a lot of ideas.
