"Okay, good, little lady, please."

Tan Cheng grabbed Tan Ran: "Sister, I want to take a look outside." ”

Tan Ran looked at the shelves full of books, took the scroll, and said, "Okay, don't run." ”

Tan Ran followed into the study last time, and took out one by one and showed them to the old shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at each one carefully, and praised one or two sentences from time to time.

Looking at the little girl sitting with the old god drinking tea, the shopkeeper thought about the 'nobleman's comment's 'depiction, leaping on the paper, a wonderful work', and couldn't help but ask again: "Is this really painted by the little lady?" ”

As soon as the words came out, the shopkeeper regretted it a little, and the literati were the most arrogant, and this remark was a clear contempt, and he suddenly became nervous.

Tan Ran was a little surprised, he didn't understand why the shopkeeper asked this question again, and when he found the imperceptible embarrassment on the shopkeeper's face, he pretended to be mischievous and said, "Uncle Ge, do you want me to draw one on the spot?" ”

The shopkeeper heard the ridicule in the girl's words, and couldn't help but smile and said, "No, no, the little lady is smiling." ”

This time, the paintings were still sold at the price of two or two per piece, and the shopkeepers of the ten paintings brought with them were all accepted.

Tan Ran put the silver two into his purse, thought for a while, and asked, "Shopkeeper, is there your store in Hejian Prefecture?" ”

The shopkeeper was surprised when he heard this, and said: "Of course there is, if the little lady's paintings are sold in Hejian Prefecture, the price must be higher than here, why does the little lady ask like this?" ”

Tan Ran put down the teacup and said: "It's not a secret, my brother wants to go to Songtan Academy in Hejian Prefecture to study, but Mr.'s restraint is too high, Ge Bo is well-informed, if the little girl takes the painting to Hejian Prefecture to sell, I don't know if there is a market?" ”

The shopkeeper looked out the door and asked, "Little lady's brother, is it the young man who accompanied you just now?" ”

"Exactly."

The shopkeeper asked with interest: "There are strict requirements for the enrollment of Songtan Academy, one of which is that non-children cannot be admitted to the hospital. ”

Tan Ran smiled proudly: "Not only was I admitted, but I was also the first in the government exam." ”

The shopkeeper's surprise: "It turned out to be him!" ”

The second test of the county government, the news that a twelve-year-old peasant boy won the first place has already spread throughout the county, the shopkeeper has heard of it, but he didn't expect that the deity turned out to be the boy just now, he looked at the little girl in front of him, and sighed in his heart, when his brother was admitted to the child at a young age, when his sister's young Danqing has aura, it should not be underestimated!

"Little lady, sit down for a while, I'll come when I go."

The shopkeeper said and walked to the courtyard at the back, and before he had a cup of tea, he came back with an envelope in his hand.

"Little lady, you can take this letter." The shopkeeper handed the letter to Tan Ran, and then said: "If the little lady goes to Hejian Prefecture, you can take this letter to Luyuanfang on Seventh Street to find the shopkeeper Li inside, I don't dare to say much, it's no problem to come out with the little lady's painting for a show." ”

Tan Ran was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you Ge Bo, Tan Ran will not forget this kindness." ”

"Tan Ran? Good name, good name. The shopkeeper said with a smile.

In the bookstore, Tan Chengzheng was carefully holding a book and flipping through it, and Tan Ran stood behind him for a while without noticing.

Tan Ran had no choice but to find a guy to buy the book, and the shopkeeper gave it a discount.
