"It's okay, I'm just worried that my brother won't do well in the homework he left me, and I'm afraid that he will test me." didn't want Qingniang to worry, Miaomiao casually made an excuse.

Qing Niang nodded, looking convinced of Miaomiao's words. And comforted her.

"It's okay, take your time, it doesn't matter. How long is it? I won't just let your brother teach, don't worry. ”

"yes, I see." Miao Miao smiled and nodded, but absentmindedly remembered something else.

Thinking of the short meeting with Gu Nianyuan last time, until now, thinking of what Gu Nianyuan said about herself, Miaomiao was still angry in her heart. didn't have the heart to take the initiative to reconcile with him, but he had to pretend in front of Qingniang, so as not to make her sad.

Thinking of this, Miao Miao was so aggrieved that she couldn't do it, although she knew in her heart that she would definitely not be able to avoid a meeting with Gu Nianyuan, but she still prayed that it was best for him not to come back beforehand, and he could delay it for a while.

What Miaomiao didn't expect was that when it was almost noon, Gu Nianyuan really asked someone to come to the house and help tell Qingniang that he had some things to do and not come back for the time being, so that the family didn't have to wait for him.

Miao Miao was very happy to learn about this. However, seeing that Qingniang looked lost, it was not easy to show it too obviously.

It's just a little curious, what is Gu Nianyuan going to do.

…

After Gu Nianyuan came out of the academy, he said goodbye to his classmates and refused Xiao Yang's invitation to go to his house. After that, I went to ask someone to help bring a message to the family, and then I took my baggage and went to the bookstore.

In order to prevent the gentlemen and classmates in the academy from finding out, Gu Nianyuan deliberately found a bookstore far away from the academy. I don't know if it's because the rest days of the academy are all the same day, or for other reasons, there is no one in this bookstore that Gu Nianyuan chose.

There were only rows of bookshelves and books on them in the bookstore, and there was a little second sitting behind the counter in a daze.

Gu Nianyuan strode over and swept the bookshelves inside at the door. I found that there were a lot of scripts, so I walked in.

Seeing the guests, Xiao Er cheered up, but he didn't come out from behind the counter, but just asked lightly.

"What is Childe going to buy?"

Gu Nianyuan is not surprised, the bookstore is not like other shops, you must come here to buy books or pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Xiao Er will not sell as enthusiastically as selling clothes.

Gu Nianyuan said lightly, "If you don't buy anything, I want to ask you if you accept the script here." "Ask her to wait a moment, and go to the back to find the shopkeeper herself."

"Accept it, wait a minute, I'll call our shopkeeper." Xiao Er can't do this kind of thing, he nodded at Gu Nianyuan, and then turned his head to call someone inside.

Soon, a man with a long beard in a scholar's robe walked out, he looked about fifty, and his temperament was less like a boss than a scholar.

In fact, it is exactly like this, the shopkeeper is a scholar, and he is also famous for his children. It's just that I took the exam for many years, and I couldn't go any further. Fortunately, there is some property in the family, and he is not the kind of person who does not hit the south wall and does not look back, so he simply gave up the imperial examination and opened a bookstore.

However, although he gave up scientific research, he is also a person who really loves to learn. It's a good time to open a bookstore and read books all the time, and he is also a good-looking reader who likes to look good on weekdays.

He saw Gu Nianyuan's eyes light up first, and he couldn't help but praise,

"This boy looks really graceful and radiant."

"The shopkeeper has won the award, and the shopkeeper is also quite personable," Gu Nianyuan politely began to blow each other.

"Haha! I'm old, and I'm not as young as you. The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves! Alright, let's get down to business! The shopkeeper smiled heartily and did not drag the mud and water.

"Is Childe going to sell a script? But bring it to me. By the way, my surname is Wang, and I haven't asked what this son is called? ”

"Under the surname Gu, you can call me Xiao Gu, this is my script, you can take a look." Gu Nianyuan took out the script from the package and handed it to the shopkeeper Wang.

"Xiao Gu, are you good at writing? It's a face. This style really doesn't look like it was written by a young man, "Shopkeeper Wang has never given up practicing calligraphy, and he has been practicing for so many years, which can be regarded as a small achievement."

On weekdays, he has always been proud of his words, and there are scholars who copy books to make money on weekdays, but he is not very satisfied and feels too immature.

It was the first time he had seen a young man who could write such a good hand.

sighed at Gu Nianyuan's words, and looked forward to the content of the shopkeeper Wang's dialogue book even more. He couldn't wait to read the contents of the book, and he was so attracted by this look that he never lifted his head.

Seeing the shopkeeper like this, Xiao Er was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly greeted Gu Nianyuan.

"Gu Gongzi, I'm sorry, as soon as our shopkeeper reads the book, he can't remember anything." As he spoke, Xiao Er also moved a chair for him to sit down.

"It's okay." Gu Nianyuan didn't care, and sat down casually.

The words are not short, and the shopkeeper Wang has not read them for a long time. Gu Nianyuan sat on the chair, bored in a daze. Suddenly I thought of it, and I didn't know what Gu Miaomiao was doing now.

She knew that she would not go back for the time being, so she must be very happy in her heart. The last time I said that about her, she... Is she very aggrieved, very angry with herself, and doesn't want to pay attention to herself anymore.

I don't know why, thinking that Gu Miaomiao would no longer pay attention to herself and keep a distance from herself, Gu Nianyuan's heart was a little empty, and he didn't want to see this situation.

How could I have such an idea? She kept her distance from me, I should be happy, why am I so uncomfortable? Could it be that I...

By the way, I'm afraid of her... I'm afraid that she can't cooperate with her like this and deal with Lu Nanxi! Not because of anything else! Desperately suppressing the answer that was about to come out, Gu Nianyuan told himself that this was the truth.

Right! I have worked hard to write this book, and I have already helped her build momentum in advance! Gu Miaomiao has long been a pawn in my revenge plan, and it will be very troublesome if she suddenly stops!

I've done so much for her, isn't it a waste of time?! Absolutely not!

Gu Nianyuan tried his best to convince himself that this was what he really thought, just for revenge, nothing else!

"Gone? Little Gu Gongzi? What's next? The voice of the shopkeeper interrupted Gu Nianyuan's thoughts, and he asked Gu Nianyuan very urgently about the following content, and it seemed that he was very satisfied with this script.

"The back is still writing, I don't know if the shopkeeper Wang has taken a fancy to the book below?" Gu Nianyuan retracted his thoughts, and when he saw the shopkeeper's reaction, he already had confidence in his heart.

"Xiao Gu Gongzi's book is so well written, not only the subject matter is novel, but the structure is also as smooth as flowing water, such a good script, I would be too stupid if I didn't want it."

Shopkeeper Wang praised Gu Nianyuan's words, and said with some hesitation.

"I wonder what Gu Gongzi thinks about the price?"

Gu Nianyuan is also writing a script for the first time, and he doesn't know much and doesn't know what price to offer. But he didn't show it on his face, just replied lightly.

"If you believe in the shopkeeper, how much is the shopkeeper willing to pay?"

Shopkeeper Wang was originally a more kind person, and when he heard Gu Nianyuan believe in himself so much, his heart was even more appropriate. talked directly to Gu Nianyuan, two ways of pricing.

"Little Gu Gongzi, you trust the old man so much, the old man will definitely not deceive you. We usually collect the book here, and we usually buy it out directly for twenty taels or thirty silver. But Xiao Gu Gongzi, your book is really well written, if you sell it, I will give you eighty taels directly. ”

"There's another way, and that's sharing. This method is generally used by everyone, but Xiao Gu Gongzi can also use this if you want. I'll give you a deposit of thirty taels first, and I'll give you a share of one hundred wen for every one sold for the rest. Xiao Gu Gongzi, which one do you choose? ”

Gu Nianyuan listened to what the shopkeeper said sincerely, and he was quite confident in his words. So after a little thought, I chose the way to share.

The shopkeeper gave him a deposit of thirty taels very happily, Gu Nianyuan took the silver ticket, and greeted the shopkeeper for a while before leaving.

Coming out of the bookstore, Gu Nianyuan did not choose to go home, but took the silver and went to another relatively dilapidated alley.

Gu Nianyuan remembered that in his previous life, he heard that there was once a calligraphy and painting master living here. When he was young, he was also a jinshi, but when he was an official, he was inadvertently involved in a political dispute and was demoted to a concubine.

He himself was very talented, and his paintings were invaluable. However, because of his special status, no one dares to buy the goods. After he was rehabilitated, a painting in the back was directly sold for a high price of tens of thousands of taels.

However, because he lived too poor in the early years, his relatives died early, and he committed suicide shortly after being rehabilitated. After his death, the emperor also specially wrote a prayer for him, because in this way, his calligraphy and paintings were more valuable, and it can be said that it is difficult to buy a thousand gold.

When he was down, he made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings, but he couldn't sell them for a few dollars. There was a groom who bought a picture of his Spring Mountain for dozens of yuan, and in the end he actually sold it for 8,000 taels of silver, and he became rich all of a sudden.

The person who talked to Gu Nianyuan about this at that time regretted and envied him when he talked about it, and he always regretted that he had gone to that alley to buy a few paintings.

Gu Nianyuan didn't care about it at the time, and felt that there was no regret medicine in the world. The kind of good thing that makes you rich overnight is not so easy to encounter. At that time, he never expected that although there was no regret medicine in the world. But there are people like myself who have been gifted by God and have memories of past lives.

However, since God has arranged it like this, Gu Nianyuan is not the kind of person who will not be flexible. The opportunity to get rich in front of you should not be in vain.

So Gu Nianyuan earned the silver and came to this alley where the legendary calligrapher and painter lived. I'm going to try my luck and see if I can buy his paintings.

Gu Nianyuan's dress was very simple outside, but here he was so clean and clean, and he was wearing clothes without a single patch, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
