"Eldest sister, I .......".

"Seventh brother, the eldest sister understands, you are very sensible and well-behaved, our family is looking at it in our eyes and remembering it in our hearts? You can rest assured, since our family is bent on providing for you, we can't save anything here."

After Liu Yiyang heard his eldest sister's words, his eyes were red, and he couldn't express his emotion in words.

"You study hard, you will have a future in the future, what are you looking forward to? Waiting for your blessings". Liu Yiyang smiled and touched the head of the seventh brother and said.

"Well, eldest sister, I will definitely study hard and be out of the head, eldest sister, you will wait to enjoy the blessings of the seventh brother." Liu Yiyang clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and he said to Liu Yiyu as if he was vowing.

After the second day, Liu Yiyu said to Liu Li that he would go to the town to sell pen, ink, paper, and inkstones to the seventh brother, and then took the second sister to the town with a bamboo basket of eggs on their backs.

Now the number of hens in the Liujia chicken coop has surged to twenty-five, and there are five roosters, and twenty-five hens can lay eggs.

Rao is the Liu family can eat eggs every day, but the Liu family still saves a lot of eggs, this summer, after the eggs are not long in the future, they are easy to spoil, Liu Li took advantage of the Liu Yiyu sisters to go to the town, and asked the Liu Yiyu sisters to take these eggs to the town and sell them.

Originally, paper, ink, pen, inkstone, and these things had to be prepared for the seventh brother a long time ago, but at the beginning of the year, he was busy all the way, and when he had free time, he remembered that he hadn't prepared these things for the seventh brother, and Liu Yiyu told the seventh brother about it.

The seventh brother said that he would practice in the sand table first, and then practice with paper after the words were almost done.

Until yesterday, Liu Yiyu saw that the words practiced by the seventh brother had already looked a little bit, and he was afraid that he would not be able to make progress in practicing the words from the sand table, which had to be practiced from the pen, ink and paper.

After the Liu Yiyu sisters came to the town, they first went to Xiangmanlou to sell the eggs carried by the two sisters to Xiangmanlou.

Zhang Xinda hasn't seen Liu Yisa a few times since the New Year, Liu Yisa is either busy with the family's fields, or going up the mountain to pick honeysuckle, and he won't go to the town if he has nothing to do, Zhang Xin is busy with his father in the restaurant.

After Zhang Xin saw the person he wanted coming to the restaurant, he hurriedly put down what he was doing and ran towards the two sisters Liu Yiyu, his eyes lit up, and he looked at the second sister brightly.

The second sister was slightly red by Zhang Xin's straightforward gaze.

"Sister Liu, haven't you seen you for a long time? How can I have time to come to the building today?"

"What's the matter, you're not welcome? If you're not welcome, I'll go? ”。 Liu Yiyu joked about Zhang Xin.

"No, no, no, how could it be? What about drinking? ”。

"Second sister, you and Zhang Xin are counting eggs here, and the eldest sister will go to the bookstore to have a look, and then go home together later." Liu Yiyu's heart moved.

"Well, big sister". After the second sister's lips moved, she said.

The second sister naturally knows that the eldest sister has found a good reason to let herself and Zhang Xin talk together in an upright manner.

Liu Yiyu out of the fragrant building, at the end of this bustling street, opened a bookstore, and wrote a couplet on the left and right, the left couplet: splendid text, the original did not have it, the right couplet: a variety of shelves, but to be begged, horizontal criticism: Zhuzi 100 stores.

This store is opened at the end of the busy street, and the pedestrians passing by the door of the bookstore are not noisy or noisy, and the steps under their feet are lightened, all of them are literati who are afraid of noisy bookstores, which is in stark contrast to the lively scene of the bustling street in the previous section.

The people who entered the hundreds of stores of Zhuzi were all literati and artists, each choosing what they needed in the bookshelf.

There were also two men cleaning inside, one was about twenty-seven or eighteen, a white-faced, beardless, well-mannered young man sitting at the front desk holding a book, reading with relish.

"Shopkeeper, excuse me, how much is your coarse paper worth?" After Liu Yiyu entered the Zhuzi Baijia store, after looking around, he saw several blank papers, all placed on the counter behind the front desk, and there were pen holders on the counters, and there were different styles of brushes and inkstones hanging on the pen holders.

After Xu Feng heard someone asking, he put down the book in his hand and looked up to see a girl who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, the corner of the girl's mouth was smiling, and her eyebrows revealed a faint strong and heroic color, not like the squeamishness of other women in the boudoir, nor like the vulgarity and timidity of rural women.

Xu Feng was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said, "This paper is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the cheapest coarse paper is a copper plate, three fine paper copper plates, five copper plates of inferior rice paper, eight copper plates of high-grade rice paper, and the price and quality of the paper do not need to be said, I am afraid that the girl also knows."

No wonder it is said that the reader is burning money, not the children of poor families to read, the cheapest coarse paper has a copper plate, and the expensive high-grade rice paper requires eight copper plates, this price, you can buy two catties of black noodles, two catties of black noodles to save a little food, you can provide a family of five to eat for five days.

Moreover, a piece of paper is only about half a foot long and wide, and practicing words on it will take less than a few minutes for two catties of black noodles to fall into the stomach.

As for the price and quality of paper, Liu Yiyu also understands that there are many fine fluffs on coarse paper, which is not conducive to writing.

The thin paper has a little less fluff on it, which is suitable for scholars who can already write properly.

As for the difference between inferior rice paper and superior rice paper, it is that the inferior rice paper is somewhat yellowed, while the superior rice paper is white and flawless, and the paper is delicate and supple.

"Shopkeeper, then get me two hundred pieces of coarse paper." Liu Yiyu thought about it and said.

"The girl asked for coarse paper, but she still needed pen and ink." After Xu Feng wrapped two hundred pieces of coarse paper, after seeing the girl in front of him staring at the brush and inkstone on the pen stand, Xu Feng asked.

"The shopkeeper, the younger brother is practicing calligraphy for the first time, what kind of brush is applicable".

"A wool pen is ready, suitable for beginners".

In the end, Liu Yiyu bought two wool pens and an inkstone, and after learning about Liu Yiyang's beginners, he asked Liu Yiyu to buy a book of poetry and go back.

After buying these things and going home, after Liu Yiyu handed them over to the seventh brother, the seventh brother seemed to be a baby, holding these things in his arms, grinning happily.

The seventh brother seemed to think of something, his lips moved, of course Liu Yiyu knew what the seventh brother wanted to say and said, "Don't think about what you have and don't have, you read the book, it's better than anything?" ”。

"Well, big sister, I will".
