Tan Ran pulled Tan Cheng to thank the shopkeeper, Tan Cheng was jumped when he heard that Tan Ran had bought the book, and he wanted to refuse, but he really couldn't let it go, so he could only thank him.

The shopkeeper said that he didn't care, watching the young girl walk away, and walked quickly to the backyard, he had to write another letter to Hejian Prefecture, young talent, the future is unpredictable, if one day can really be on the Tianzi Hall, Luyuanfang can also follow the fame, and that girl, sell paintings for my brother to study, find Mr. to write, it is a good excerpt.

……

……

"Cousin, this book cost a lot of money, right?"

The two of them sat on the donkey cart, looking at the cattle and sheep in the surrounding fields, Tan Cheng couldn't help but speak.

"Originally, it was one or two dollars of silver, but the shopkeeper gave a discount, and he got eight dollars of silver."

"Why is it so cheap?" Tan Cheng asked.

Tan Ran smiled: "It's not because of the name of the first place in the second test of your county government, the shopkeeper is so happy." ”

Tan Cheng smashed his tongue: "However, it's still so expensive." ”

Then the young man sighed again, pulled his gaze back from the book, looked into the distance and said, "Even a book is so expensive, it's so difficult to study." ”

Tan Ran laughed: "You can be regarded as a little prodigy in Yunxian Town now, you say that it is difficult to study, who is embarrassed to say that it is easy to read?" ”

"I didn't mean that." Tan Cheng smiled bitterly: "Children as old as me in the village have begun to learn crafts to make money to support their families, and I am the only one, and the family has to frown all day long for me." ”

"Since my uncle and aunt let you and your eldest cousin go to a private school from the beginning, I just hope that you are different from others, and now that you are so good at reading, it is too late for them to be happy, don't think about it."

"It's not my mom and dad who asked us to study."

"Huh?"

Tan Cheng glanced at Tan Ran and said in a low voice: "At the beginning, my uncle asked my father and mother to send us to study in a private school, and the money we used to study was also from my uncle. ”

Tan Ran took a while to understand who Tan Cheng's 'uncle' meant.

Tan Cheng glanced at her and continued: "A few years ago, although I didn't know why my father and uncle broke off contact, every year my uncle still wrote to ask me about my brother's study, and sometimes he brought a lot of books back. ”

"Ahh Tan Ran responded dryly, not knowing what to say, so he could only laugh dryly: "The hero sees the same thing, haha." ”

Tan Cheng fell on the donkey cart in dismay: "But, studying, it's too expensive." ”

Tan Ran kicked Tan Cheng's leg: "Since, dad and I think the same, don't think about the rest, go to study hard, everything is on me." ”

Tan Cheng's eyes widened and reminded Tan Ran: "You are my sister, sister!" ”

So, don't always put on an adult look, okay?

Tan Ran didn't bother to pay attention to him, closed his eyes and recuperated.

The business of the dart bureau was not very good this month, Uncle Tan stayed at home for the past two days, and when the family had dinner at the dinner table in the evening, Tan Ran said the idea of the family going to Hejian Prefecture.

Tan's sister-in-law was the first to object, only as a child who was not sensible, and said: "Sister Ran, things are not as simple as you think, we at least have land in Tanjia Village, we don't spend any money on eating and drinking, and the money we earn is saved. ”
