Chapter 39: Where Did the Book Come From?
"Ah Wan is bored, it's better for the fourth brother to find some books for Ah Wan to read." The fourth elder of the Shao family pulled Ah Wan to another room.
"Ah Wan, look at it, these are the books of the fourth and fifth brothers, you can read them to pass the boring time." The fourth child of the Shao family took a book from the dilapidated bookshelf and handed it to Ah Wan.
"Oh." Ah Wan took it and flipped it over, with a little depression on his face.
"This book tells the story of a prime minister who taught the little emperor how to become a Ming Jun, Ah Wan can take a look. There is also this book, which is about how to know various herbs, this book teaches people how to embroider, and the fourth brother learned embroidery from this book. The fourth child of the Shao family took out the few books he treasured and shared them with Ah Wan.
"Fourth brother, Ah Wan doesn't like these." Ah Wan looked at the books in his hand and was helpless.
"Don't like it? Is Ah Wan illiterate? The fourth thought of the Shao family was that Ah Wan might not be literate.
"Well, Ah Wan doesn't know." Ah Wan shook her head, she couldn't remember whether she could read or not.
"So, what is this word?" The fourth child of the Shao family took a book at random and pointed to the title of the book.
"Well, a thousand-word set." Ah Wan pressed the words on it, read it, and then looked at the fourth child of the Shao family suspiciously.
"Where's this one?" The fourth child of the Shao family took another book and pointed to the title.
"A hundred ancient poems."
"Where's this one?"
"Phantom Walk."
"Where's this one?"
"Recipe one hundred and eighty."
"Ah, you are literate." The fourth child of the Shao family can be sure that Ah Wan can recognize words.
"However, Ah Wan doesn't want to read this, it's all words, and it doesn't mean anything at all." Ah Wan pouted and explained.
"Then Ah Wan look at this, a small collection of characters, and the stories in it are all drawn." The fourth child of the Shao family took out a worn-out book from the bottom of the cabinet, and then smelled a trace of mushy in the air: "Ah Wan, look first, if there is anything, look for the fourth brother, the fourth brother will go cook first." ”
"Ao, I know, fourth brother." Ah Wan took the book in his hand and flipped through it, sure enough, it was all pictures, it looked good, and he went back to the next room with the book.
Ah Wan lay on the kang, reading and reading fascinated, laughing non-stop.
The fourth child of the Shao family looked at the rice cooked in the pot, so he had to remake it.
When Ah Wan finished reading the book, he went to the next room to find another book to read.
She squatted down, flipped through the many books one by one, put all the pictures on the floor, and then selected a few interesting books from the books on the floor, and went back to the room.
The fourth child of the Shao family concentrated on cooking, and didn't notice Ah Wan tossing in the two rooms.
Ah Wan kicked off his shoes, climbed onto the kang, lay on the kang, opened a book intently, and read it patiently.
The fourth child of the Shao family cooked the meal, brought it in, and saw Ah Wan who was still reading seriously, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and he didn't disturb Ah Wan to read, and turned around and walked out of the room.
He took the dishes and chopsticks out of the kitchen, warmed the only water left in the water tank, blew out the light in the kitchen, half-closed the door, and walked into the house.
"Ah Wan, it's time to eat, don't look at it." Seeing that Ah Wan was still reading on the kang, he put the dishes and chopsticks away and walked over.
"Fourth brother, wait a minute, I'll finish reading." Ah Wan shouted and continued to read.
"What kind of book, so interesting, so that Ah Wan, a little fat pig, forgot to sleep and eat, and stopped eating?" The fourth child of the Shao family came over and sat on the edge of the kang.
"It's beautiful, I'll eat later." Ah Wan didn't raise his head and continued to read.
The fourth child of the Shao family was very curious, what kind of book made Ah Wan read so energetically, and he also leaned down and watched, and when he saw the content clearly, his face turned red, and he scolded Ah Wan loudly: "Where did the book come from!" ”
Ah Wan was frightened and stammered: "I took it under the bookshelf." ”
