Chapter 80: The Far Mountain Book House
Because there are many seed varieties, Shopkeeper Li delayed for a while.
In his hand, he carried a small cloth bag containing some seeds. It doesn't seem like much, but it's enough to plant it.
Fauber only had one look at it and knew how many seeds there were.
When Su Wanniang saw Shopkeeper Li coming out, she immediately asked, "How much are these seeds in total?" ”
After Shopkeeper Li looked at Su Wanniang, he glanced at Fu Bo again, and then he weighed and said, "Although this lady doesn't want many seeds, there are many scarce seeds. These, charge Mrs. two dollars! In the future, if the lady thinks it is good, she will patronize it more. ”
Speaking of which, he only collected a capital for the sake of Fauber's face.
When Su Wanniang heard this, she knew that the shopkeeper Li looked at Fu Bo with deep meaning just now, and it seemed that this person was not screaming.
took out a broken silver from her purse, and Su Wanniang gave the silver to Shopkeeper Li before Fu Bo wanted to give the money: "Give!" ”
Seeing this, Fu Bo immediately stopped: "Madam, slow down! The old slave carries the silver, and the lady just chooses it. ”
Su Wanniang knew Fu Bo's kindness, shook her head and said, "Fu Bo is polite, I originally wanted to thank Miss Shang." Now, how can I always be cheeky and take advantage of Miss Shang, I should still give the money to buy vegetables. ”
Listening to what Su Wanniang said, Fu Bo hesitated and didn't force it.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Li dared to accept Su Wanniang's broken silver and go for change.
went out with the seeds, Su Wanniang thought that she was going back, and it was not good to go back to her parents' house empty-handed. Then I remembered that it was time to buy some gifts for my family.
"Fu Bo, I don't know how far Jiangling County is from Sanbao Town? If you take a horse-drawn carriage, how long will it take? ”
Su Wanniang didn't know the distance, she wanted to buy something, if she couldn't put it in this weather, she wouldn't be able to bring the broken ones back. That's why I asked!
When Fu Bo saw Su Wanniang staring at the pastry shop, he immediately understood, and explained: "If Madame takes a carriage to Jiangling County, it will be half a day as fast as it is and a day as slow as it is slow. ”
It depends on whether it's fast or slow.
Su Wanniang understood, nodded and said, "I see!" Fubo, I'm going to buy some gifts and bring them to my parents, sister-in-law, and children. I'm afraid it's going to be delayed for a while. ”
Fu Bo naturally understood, and his mind turned to a teahouse not far away and said: "It just so happens that the old slave has something to go to the teahouse, and the lady will go to buy gifts, and the old lady will meet in the teahouse if she buys good things!" ”
Su Wanniang glanced at the teahouse that Fu Bo pointed to, Sulu Teahouse!
"Okay, I'll go around first, and then I'll be in the teahouse!" Su Wanniang blessed her body, turned around and began to look for a shop suitable for buying gifts.
Thinking that her father and sister-in-law also had a child, she probably calculated the child's age according to her memory. Also, if you think about it, you have a plan.
There are many bookstores and bookstores in Sanbao Town, and there is one every few meters.
Su Wanniang's family looked over, although it was only at the door, but they also saw the same.
Subsequently, Su Wanniang chose a small shop.
Because of him, the shopkeeper of this shop is not the kind of person who judges people by their appearance, nor is he the kind of person who cares about weight.
Because, Su Wanniang passed by other shops and saw some children standing in front of the store, and they would be driven away by some guys. Yes, the shopkeeper has a look of eyes above the top and high.
Su Wanniang knew that at this time, those who read by themselves felt that 'everything is inferior, only reading is high!' ’。
Therefore, after looking at a few houses, Su Wanniang chose to enter this 'Far Mountain Book House'.
This book house is different from other houses, and other houses are named after what Moxiangyuan, what Juxian Zhai and so on. Only this bookstore only takes the word "distant mountain"!
It's simple, but it feels very different.
Su Wanniang approached the bookstore and glanced at the small shop of about ten square meters.
The books in this shop are all on the shelves on both sides, and there are no men to take care of them or take care of them. The so-called shopkeeper was even more nestled behind the counter, staring down at the book and reading.
Even when Su Wanniang went in, he didn't look up.
Su Wanniang didn't mind, and walked to the bookshelf to read. According to the age of Su Mingzhe's son, it is estimated that he has finished college. After all, the conditions of the Su family are there, and it is completely enough to support a child to study.
Now, then, that kid should be learning etiquette and arithmetic.
In addition, the information in her memory Su Wanniang learned that by this time, the child should be learning the right pair or something.
Thinking of this, Su Wanniang took a closer look, and when she saw a suitable one, she wrote it down first, and then continued to choose.
In the end, Su Wanniang chose a copy of "Tianchu Sutra", a copy of "Chu Li", and a copy of "Qiao to the Whole Book". One counts, one etiquette, and one pair.
After choosing this, Su Wanniang put it on the counter.
"Shopkeeper, please look at the price?"
Su Wanniang's gentle voice came, and the voice was not big or small in the quiet study room.
The person who was immersed in reading didn't look up at Su Wanniang, but glanced at the three books on the counter. Then, hold out three fingers.
Su Wanniang was stunned and then immediately understood, took out three taels from her purse and put them on the counter.
"Three taels, you put it away!"
After speaking, Su Wanniang saw that the man directly took the silver to the counter, and then threw it into the money box with a click. Just as she was about to take the book and leave, Su Wanniang saw some pen, ink, paper and inkstones behind the counter.
Wouldn't it be better to buy some of these and give them to your children?
Su Wanniang made up her mind and didn't leave, she stood there and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, how do you sell those pen, ink, paper and inkstones behind you?" ”
After thinking about it, Su Wanniang added: "Is there anything suitable for nine- and ten-year-old children?" ”
The shopkeeper was disturbed when he was reading a book, and he was immediately a little annoyed, turned his head to look at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then immediately took out some suitable ones from them, and put them on the cabinet with a snap.
Su Wanniang looked at the things that had fallen a little dust, but she didn't dislike them.
She knew from the memories of her predecessor that these pen, ink, paper, and inkstones were very expensive. Let's just say that the three books just now, each of which is one or two pieces of silver, are already cheap. In my memory, Su Wanniang's father-in-law once bought a book for a few taels of silver, and it was not a unique book or a famous one.
Come to think of it, that's why those people think that reading people are superior! After all, those who can afford to read are rich people.
It is very difficult for an ordinary farmer family to provide for a child's education.
Su Wan Niangzai carefully selected, she did not choose the best. As long as it looks good and looks like the right ink, I chose two pieces. In addition, the pen chose five, after all, it is a consumable. In addition, she took a knife for paper.
There is no good place of origin for pen, ink, paper and inkstone in Jiangling County, so those good ones are all imported from other places. Su Wanniang doesn't want to be too good, as long as it's easy to use. In addition, the child is not very old, and it is enough to use these.
After choosing, Su Wanniang asked for it herself and put it in a pile.
"Shopkeeper, how many of these are there?" Su Wanniang guessed that these must not be cheap.
