Chapter 64: New Books Launched
Li Jiangwei, who was haunted by nightmares, hadn't slept peacefully for a long time. But after seeing that apricot-colored figure in a dream yesterday, the unspeakable and terrible nightmare finally left her.
Li Jiangwei, who has returned to normal sleep, is getting better day by day.
On this day, pinching his nose and drinking the black decoction brought by Limo, he took advantage of the bitterness that did not completely occupy his mouth, and took the candied fruit sent by Liyue.
Then, after covering Li Jiangwei's forehead for a while, Li Yue nodded and smiled: "The girl's heat has finally receded." After two more days of medicine, the body should fully recover. ”
put away the medicine bowl and left the room without a sound.
"Rishin went to rest?"
Li Yue shook her head and said, "Li Xin has gone to practice calligraphy." It is said that there will be more posts to pray for blessings in the future, so as to make a wish with the gods. ”
"She's getting more and more obedient now?"
"Not all the maids in the courtyard can read and write. For those of us who are subordinates, it is a blessing to be able to read and write, and it is also a craft to be able to read and write. Even if you don't work in the girl's yard, the work you will take in the future will not be bad. Pear's nature is not bad, but it lacks teaching. ”
Li Jiangwei quipped: "How does it feel to be a gentleman?" ”
Li Yue smiled: "It's not easy to explain things thoroughly." I'd rather do some rough work for the girl than be someone else's husband anymore. ”
The two talked again, and whether it was reaction or answer, Li Jiangwei returned to her proper state. Li Yue was completely relieved and went outside to get a letter.
"Is it a letter from a big sister?"
"It's a post from the Wu family."
Li Jiangwei took the post and looked at the content in confusion. said in the post that Wu Shilu wanted to invite Li Jiangwei to Zhuyin Pavilion for a chat.
"I thought I would push this post for the girl later. Since the girl is awake, it's up to the girl to decide. ”
"The appointment is three days away. Now that I'm in good shape, let's go to the meeting. Also, send me all the things that I have accumulated before, and I'll deal with it. ”
At least deal with Lu Jiangxi's letter and the things sent by Wenjin Bookstore first.
I thought that the letter sent by Lu Jiangfeng this time was the same as before. Who knows the content of the letter, but it makes Li Jiangwei sit still......
After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't hold back the reply. So the reply was stranded and waited for two days.
It's been a while since autumn, but the summer heat hasn't dissipated, and the ferocious autumn tiger has arrived. If you want to leave your room and walk outside, you should also pay attention to the afternoon sun to avoid heat stroke.
On the appointed day, Li Yue followed Li Jiangwei out of the house. While it was still early, Li Jiangwei asked the sedan chair man to send her to Wenjin Bookstore.
There are a lot of women in the Wenjin bookstore. Some of them want to find the lady of the noble family in person, and some of them are maids who come to run errands for the master's family.
No matter how many women there are, there are no more men. Just after the township exam, many students gathered in the bookstore. After the township exam, I will continue to prepare for future exams, and at this time, I will come to the bookstore to find books for further study.
I heard that some poor students who have no money to continue to take the exam after failing the list will come to the bookstore to sell books to earn the money to go home. However, Shangjing is the capital after all, a prosperous place, and it has not yet reached the spring season, so I have never seen such a down-and-out book seller in Wenjin Bookstore.
"Shopkeeper! Is "Overseas Lost" still there? ”
Li Jiangwei, who was standing in front of the bookcase and was choosing a book, heard this shout and couldn't believe her ears.
"This book is so popular?"
Her muttering was heard by the girl next to her, and she smiled, "Isn't that right?" If it's late, you won't be able to buy a copy! ”
Driven by curiosity, Li Jiangwei came to the counter to ask for information about "Overseas Lost". The fat shopkeeper in the blue-gray robe wondered, "This book again?" It's sold out today, so if you want to buy it, you can only make a reservation. ”
"That's it?"
"I don't think this book is any good. But they couldn't help but want to know what was written in this book. There are many people who admire it, and this product will not be available. ”
Li Jiangwei was surprised, a little crying and laughing.
"Shopkeeper, do you know when this book will be available?"
The shopkeeper grinned, held his round belly and said, "It's almost there." If Miss is looking for a book right now, I have another book to recommend you. ”
"Shopkeeper, please."
The fat shopkeeper held his belt with one hand and pointed to the bookcase not far away with the other. There were a lot of people around the bookcase, both men and women.
"The book on that cabinet, Mademoiselle may like it."
Li Jiangwei squeezed into the crowd with doubts, and finally came to the bookcase. The shelves are mostly empty, but there are still a few that have not been sold. Li Jiangwei hurriedly pulled out a book, squeezed out the crowd, and looked at the title of the book in her hand.
On the cover, the words "Bai Wat Ji" are written!
The fat shopkeeper saw that Li Jiangwei successfully got this book, and smiled: "It seems that Miss grabbed it." This is Chengwei's new book, and there is not much left in the store. ”
The letter sent by Wenjin Bookstore to Xiaoxiang Academy before was the news that Li Jiangwei's "The Legend of Bai Wat" was on sale.
When I saw it today, it really sold.
Sending the silver, Li Jiangwei returned to the sedan chair with the new book. Turning over the cover of "The Legend of Bai Wat", the words "Wenjin Bookstore Printing" and "Chengwei Writing" came into view. Flip back and you'll see the text. The clear and upright text is very comfortable to read.
At least it's more comfortable than looking at your own handwriting.
Li Jiangwei is very self-aware, her words can be read at best, far from being good-looking. Resisting the curiosity in his heart, he closed the book and put it away. Reading a book now will make me dizzy.
The soft sedan chair of the Wu family fell in front of the door of the Zhuyin Pavilion, and the corner of the curtain was lifted, and a glimpse of the colorful butterfly white Luo skirt was glimpsed.
"This is the Takeyin Pavilion?" The subordinate who followed the sedan asked.
Seeing that there were distinguished guests, the guys in the Zhuyin Hall hurriedly ran to the sedan chair to greet them.
"Exactly. Do you want to listen to a book in the lobby, or go up to the second floor wing? ”
The owner of the colorful butterfly white skirt completely lifted the sedan curtain and jumped directly from the sedan chair. It turned out to be a bright and delicate woman with a fan!
"Can Uncle An Yuanfu book a room?"
"It's ordered, it's booked."
"Take me there."
The guy didn't dare to slack off, and he was busy leading the way. As soon as he entered the Zhuyin Pavilion, Wu Shilu heard someone talking. Talking about the five girls of Anyuanbo's Mansion going to Huanyue Study.
It was not only Li Fanxi who rushed out of the city early that day, but also the car of Huanyue School was naturally seen by others. As soon as someone inquired, they should know that the car of Huanyue School had been parked in front of Uncle Anyuan's mansion.
The guy listened to the discussion in the lobby and couldn't help but say, "Now everyone is talking about Huanyue Shushu and Miss Li Jiawu. The appearance of Huanyue's carriage in Beijing was enough to make everyone curious, but they didn't expect the five girls from Anyuanbo's Mansion to get into Huanyue's car. Who in Beijing doesn't know that these five young ladies have a marriage contract with General Feng's second son, and now they are in the car of other foreign men......"
"Shut up!" Wu Shilu drank, "What is called a foreign man's car." That was the fifth lady who passed Huanyue's assessment and went up the mountain to study. ”
The man wanted to laugh at the young lady's whimsy. The name of Huanyue Shoku, even a young man like him has heard of it. How can a girl's family casually pass the assessment of Huanyue School?
But when I thought of it, this young lady was here to find An Yuanbo's mansion.....
The guy said, "That fifth young lady actually entered Huanyue?" ”
"Yes." Wu Shilu and Yourong smiled brightly.
After the guy who got the first-hand information sent Wu Shilu into the wing, he ran to find someone else to break the news. In less than a quarter of an hour, the people of the entire Zhuyin Pavilion knew that the fifth lady of the Anyuan Bofu family had become a student of Huanyue Study.
"Obviously you asked me over, why is it so late? I also want to book a room myself. Li Jiangwei pretended to blame.
Wu Shilu stood up and covered the corners of his upturned mouth, "I'm here to trick you, who told you not to reveal any news before?" Yun'er is going to Huanyue, I have to guess for myself. ”
"Didn't you decide before? I'm afraid that if I don't make it later, how embarrassing is that? Now that my sister has got what she wants, you want to trick me. I'm happy! ”
"I want a copy of the osmanthus cake, lotus cake, and barley cake in this Zhuyin Pavilion."
Li Jiangwei covered her mouth and smiled, "I knew you wanted to eat these, so I ordered them a long time ago." ”
