Chapter 114: Buying Books

Shen Zhilei left the ox cart at the door of Shen Sanlang's grocery store, and then left with Wu and the four children.

"Uncle, is that a bookstore?" Shen Mengxi pointed to a shop in front of him called Zhiyuanzhai.

"That's right, this bookstore is very famous, our Zhiyuanzhai here is just a branch, I heard that Zhiyuanzhai in Bianjing City often invites the great Confucians to give public lectures, and will also regularly invite literati and ink writers to talk about learning in the bookstore, legend has it that the official family has also been to Zhiyuanzhai in micro-service, and the owner of Zhiyuanzhai still has a painting treasure of the official family!" Shen Zhilei spoke with great interest, his eyes shining brightly.

Shen Mengxi didn't expect that his uncle was also a gossip lord, and he complained very much in his heart, in this ancient time when information was blocked, there were probably only those high-ranking families, and the affairs of the royal clan were worthy of some boring topics for the people!

"Uncle! Let's go in and buy some books for my brother! Shen Mengxi proposed.

Shen Mengzhuo's three brothers' eyes lit up immediately when they heard this, especially Shen Menghan, who looked at his father with a pair of phoenix eyes, for fear that he would say something of refusal.

Shen Zhilei glanced at Wu, saw her smile and nodded, and said, "Okay!" Each of the four of you can pick a book! ”

"Thank you uncle (father)! Thank you Auntie (mother)! ”

The four children happily joined hands and entered Zhiyuan Zhai together, most of the men in Zhiyuan Zhai were inside, Wu was inconvenient to enter, so he stood at the door and waited, Shen Zhilei told Wu not to go far and followed the children in.

At this time, there were not many guests in Zhiyuanzhai, only two or three people dressed as scholars stood in front of the bookshelf and read books seriously. Xiao Er greeted them with a smile when he saw them, welcomed them in, let them take a look at them at random, and then walked away to go about his own business.

Shen Mengxi picked up a book from the bookshelf and opened it, the paper used for this book was very ordinary, and the ink was not very even, but the font size was the same, the layout was neat, and it was obviously printed, not copied with a pen. Shen Mengxi thought that there should have been movable type printing in this era, so it was not uncommon for this kind of printed books to appear here.

This book is not thick, Shen Mengxi has finished reading it after a while, and she found that she not only has the same ability to remember as in her previous life, but also has the speed of memory several times higher than in her previous life! In the time that Shen Mengzhuo's three brothers were choosing books, Shen Mengxi had already finished reading three books.

"Sister, haven't you chosen which one you want?" Shen Mengzhu walked over and asked.

Shen Mengxi thought for a while and said, "Big brother, I don't want it, just show me after you finish reading!" ”

Shen Menghan pulled Shen Mengxu over at this time, and when he heard Shen Mengxi say that he didn't want it, he hurriedly said: "Sister, my father has said that he has allowed each of us to pick one, how can I leave you out?" ”

"Creek! You can pick one, not to be short of your money! Shen Zhilei also persuaded in a low voice.

"That's it, that's it! Sister doesn't want it, then I don't want it either! Shen Mengxu pouted and pulled Shen Mengxi's hand and shook it.

Shen Mengxi saw that they mistakenly thought that she refused to ask for books in order to save money, so she explained: "No! I don't think there's any need to buy books! Shen Mengxi looked left and right and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he whispered: "I can never forget, I read three books just now, all of them are in my mind, I can write them down for you when I go back!" ”

Shen Mengzhu knew that Shen Mengxi had the ability to never forget, but they didn't expect that she would be so rebellious, and she would be able to memorize the contents of the three books with just such a pillar of incense!
