Chapter 13 Zhiyuan Bookstore

Gu Qin said that the auspicious day of the zodiac when he went to the city to find a fortune teller to get married, it must be to block the mouths of those gossip aunts and maintain her face, it must be so!

In fact, since Gu Qin's words were spoken, those aunts did not talk about hitting the wall anymore, and all that was left for her was congratulations.

After Lu Manman figured out this key, his heart relaxed a lot, and he had a smile on his face again.

Gu Qin's family didn't know what Lu Manman was thinking, she had been looking for the medicine hall since she got off the ox cart, and seeing that the medicine hall she was looking for was in front of her, she quickly grabbed Lu Manman's hand and walked in directly with her.

Maybe it's because it's almost noon, but there aren't many people in the medicine hall.

Lu Manman stood in the center of the medicine hall and looked around, the antique Chinese medicine cabinets occupied the walls, and the medicine boy said that he was very familiar with medicine.

"Come over here, let the doctor look at your forehead."

Lu Manman heard Gu Qin's shout, she walked to Gu Qin's and sat opposite the doctor, letting the doctor check her pulse and hurt her.

"The recovery from this forehead injury is not bad, take some soothing ointment and rub it back, it shouldn't leave a scar."

Lu Manman's eyes lit up when she heard this, if she could be beautiful without leaving a scar, she would naturally be happy.

"Doctor, how much silver is a box of this soothing ointment?"

"Three taels of silver for a box."

"Three-two?" Gu Qin felt that her voice was louder, she glanced at the doctor, and quickly calculated the price in her heart, three taels of silver, if she saved some, her family's living expenses would be almost a year. She looked at Lu Manman, and when she saw that Lu Manman was also looking at her, she gritted her teeth! Lu Manman's face is related to Lu Manman's life, and it will also affect Gu Heng, so she must help Lu Manman, as for the silver, it's a big deal to save more in the future, as long as he doesn't starve to death, he should still be able to continue to live, and Gu Heng can continue to study: "Okay, I want a box." ”

Gu Heng glanced at Gu Qin's family, his eyes were dark, his mother really loved Lu Manman, and now his family was poor, three taels of silver was a huge amount of money, and she was willing to give it up. It's a pity...... No, now that he is back in this life, it is absolutely impossible for him to make Lu Manman angry with his mother again.

Lu Manman felt a sharp gaze, she subconsciously looked at Gu Heng, although it was only for a moment, but she still saw dissatisfaction and hatred in Gu Heng's eyes. A box of three taels of silver is indeed a bit expensive. Although she didn't have any concept of money, from the memory of the original owner, she learned that one tael of silver was a thousand copper plates, that is, a thousand eggs or a thousand vegetarian buns or five hundred meat buns, and three taels of silver was indeed a lot. And the Gu Heng family is reluctant to even eat meat...... It's no wonder that Gu Heng's eyes were not good when she looked at her just now, if it was her, she would be unhappy if she spent such a huge sum of money on someone she didn't like.

Thinking like this, Lu Manman didn't blame Gu Heng: "Auntie, I will definitely return this money to you." ”

"What's more, it's all family." Gu Qin's mouth endured the pain, and when she saw that the medicine boy brought the soothing ointment, she carefully asked how to use it, and then turned to look at Gu Heng and Lu Manman: "Let's go, we have to find a fortune teller to ask for an auspicious day." ”

"Ask the fortune teller?" Lu Manman looked at Gu Qin's in surprise, wasn't it used to block the mouths of those gossip aunts?

The darkness in Gu Heng's eyes flashed, and when he looked at Gu Qin's family, his face was as usual: "I still have to go to the bookstore." ”

"Auntie, I'm going to the bookstore too." How could he really let Gu Qin's family go to the fortune teller, Lu Manman hurriedly spoke, only looked at Gu Qin's and said, "You know, I can't do without Gu Heng." ”

Gu Heng glanced at Lu Manman, and when he looked around, he saw that the medicine boy and the doctor were looking at them, he coughed, this Lu Manman is really a person with no mouth to cover, and he said this regardless of the occasion and place...... Explicit words.

Gu Qinshi shook Lu Manman's hand: "But I said that just now." ”

"I just said that I would ask the fortune teller on an auspicious day, but I didn't say that I must have found a fortune teller who suits my heart today." Lu Manman accentuated the three words of agreement, and took the initiative to hold Gu Qin's arm: "Auntie, you can go to the bookstore with us." ”

After speaking, Lu Manman glanced at Gu Heng quickly, then leaned closer to Gu Qin's family, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "You go with us, Gu Heng won't dare to bully me." ”

Gu Qin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lu Manman deeply, and seeing Lu Manman nodding and her little face full of expectation, she glared at Gu Heng angrily: "Okay, then let's go to the bookstore first." ”

Gu Heng was inexplicably stunned by Gu Qin's family, and he didn't know what Lu Manman had said to Gu Qin's family. But instead of going to the fortune teller, go directly to the bookstore, which is also in line with his heart.

Zhiyuan Bookstore.

Lu Manman stood at the door of the bookstore, this name is interesting, is it taken from the tranquility to the far-reaching? She followed Gu Heng into the bookstore, and saw that Gu Heng directly found the shopkeeper, listening to them exchanging greetings with each other, it seemed that Gu Heng did not want to lead her to sell pictures and texts. Thinking of Gu Heng saying before, he only helped with the introduction, didn't this recommendation mean that he introduced her to the shopkeeper, but only brought her to the bookstore?

Lu Manman took a deep look at Gu Heng, and saw that he didn't give her a corner of his eye, I was afraid that it was really as she thought, even so, she didn't have to just wait for him to speak. She rolled her gaze, she had better take a good look at the bookstore first.

Gu Heng didn't wait for Lu Manman to open his mouth for a long time, and couldn't help but look at Lu Amanman, seeing that she was actually looking around, and there was no anxiety on her face, was she really calm, or did she have another plan?

"What do you want to buy, girl?" The shopkeeper's inquiry Lu Manman also looked at Gu Heng's face, if it was another woman, he would not ask, because almost most of the women here were illiterate.

"Is there anything in "Strange Tales"?"

"Strange Tales?" She actually asked, but what kind of book is "Strange Tales from Liaozhai"? The shopkeeper looked at Gu Heng and saw that Gu Heng didn't say anything: "I don't have this book here." ”

"It's a shame that such a book full of mythological romanticism doesn't have it." Lu Manman looked at the shopkeeper: "What about "Dream of Red Mansions"?" ”

"Dream of Red Mansions?" The shopkeeper looked at Lu Manman, this girl shouldn't have come to smash the field: "Girl, what kind of book is this?" ”

"Taking the love tragedy of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu as the main clue, it focuses on describing the process of a big family from prosperity to decline, comprehensively exposing the absurdity and corruption of the ruling class, and of course reflecting various social contradictions, which is a book with profound ideological significance and high aesthetic value." Lu Manmandao.

The shopkeeper's suspicion that Lu Manman was using Gu Heng to come in to stir up trouble, but when he heard her open mouth and what she said, he was a little puzzled: "There is such a book?" ”

"The world is so big that there are no wonders. I thought your bookstore should have such books, but it seems that there are none? Ay! It's a shame. Lu Manman spoke, and turned to look at Gu Heng: "If the bookstore you want to introduce me to is this one, then I will be disappointed." ”
