115 Buy Pen and Paper

Gu Xiaowan looked left and right, hoping to find a place that could sell the four treasures of the study. It's just that when I look around this small street, I only see some items that are commonly used in daily life, and I don't see anyone selling pen and paper.

Xiao Shishi noticed that Gu Xiaowan was always looking around and asked, "Xiaowan, what are you looking for?"

"Brother Shitou, I want to buy some pen and paper for Ning'an and the others to practice calligraphy." Gu Xiaowan said, "It's just that this place doesn't seem to have it!"

"Sister!" Gu Ning'an stood aside, hearing that Gu Xiaowan was going to buy a pen and paper, her whole face burst into dazzling brilliance: "Sister, do you want to buy a pen and paper?"

"Well, both you and Ning Ping have learned to write, so I thought that it's not a problem to always write on the ground. It's better to buy some paper and pens to go back and practice calligraphy. I just don't know where they sell it. It seems that I will ask later. Ask someone else."

Shishi nodded, he had never seen that thing sold anywhere, he couldn't even eat enough to eat, where would he have spare money to buy those things.

"We'll buy a pair later, let's go buy pen and paper." Gu Xiaowan made up her mind and said.

"Girl Gu..."

Suddenly, a person emerged from the slanting thorns, screaming in surprise.

Gu Xiaowan looked forward, but it was Xiao Shengzi from the Jinfu Building last time. Gu Xiaowan smiled decently: "Brother Shengzi, I haven't seen you for a few days."

That little Shengzi smiled: "I've been watching it just now, and I thought I'd mistaken someone, it seems, I'm not mistaken!"

Gu Xiaowan said with a smile, without the slightest embarrassment, she said generously, "Last time I wore a shabby dress."

To tell the truth like this, I don't mind my previous clothes at all, and I have to be admired. A little girl, at the age of beauty, but so natural and unpretentious, is commendable.

Xiao Shengzi carefully observed that after the little girl changed into clean clothes, although she was still wearing coarse linen clothes, the air on her body was not that of an ordinary country girl.

Thinking that even the boss of his own family thinks highly of this little girl, Xiao Shengzi dare not look down on her. He nodded. The last time Shitou went to Jinfu Building to deliver winter bamboo shoots, he had seen it before. He nodded. Two of the other three children looked exactly the same, but looking at the look on their faces, a elf appeared. A little quirky, a little calmer. There was also a little girl who was held by Gu Xiaowan.

Seeing Xiao Shengzi looking at her younger brothers and sisters, Gu Xiaowan introduced it generously: "This is Xiao Shengzi's brother in Jinfu Building, these are my younger brothers and sisters."

After seeing each other, Xiao Shengzi was a little surprised, but these younger brothers and sisters behaved politely. However, in many towns, even the little girls and young masters in the county town are not comparable.

Xiao Shengzi admired Gu Xiaowan even more. I heard that this family has lost their parents. In the past few years, Gu Xiaowan has been taking care of these children as both a father and mother, and it is indeed not easy to educate these children so well.

"Miss Gu, what are you doing here?" Xiao Shengzi asked, "It's twenty-eight today, why are you still in town? Many shops in this town are almost closed."

"I think I haven't bought the pair and firecrackers at home. No, I followed Brother Stone to the town and bought the pair and firecrackers."

"That's right, every New Year's Eve has to post red pairs and set off firecrackers." Xiao Shengzi smiled and said, "Miss Gu, if you don't dislike it, I'll introduce you to a place to buy pairs."

"Where can I dislike it, the distinguished guest welcomes the door, my cousin must be too happy to be happy." What Xiao Shengzi said was indeed true. The day after Gu Xiaowan delivered the menu to Jinfulou, Xiaoshengzi's cousin took the whole family to Jinfulou for a meal. Xiao Shengzi specially ordered these two dishes, and the cousin and aunt's family ate it happily.

Of course, the boss has specially explained that he must not let others know that the newly added dishes in Jinfu Building are from the hand of this little girl, for fear that others will have some nasty thoughts that should not be raised, and then they will harm this girl. .

"Walk a little further ahead from here, and you will reach a bookstore in Yushulou, where there are pairs for sale."

bookstore? Do you sell books?

"Bookstore? Are there books for sale there?" Gu Xiaowan asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's the bookstore opened by my cousin. My eldest cousin is a scholar. When the Chinese New Year comes, I will write some pairs at home and put them in the bookstore, and people who buy books can get a pair as a gift. You Just go there and say that it was introduced by my little Shengzi, and my cousin will send you two pairs."

"I'm so sorry." Gu Xiaowan hurriedly refused: "Does your cousin sell pen and paper or something?"

"Yes, I have!"

"That's great. My brother has just learned to write a few words in the past few days. I want to buy him some pen and paper, but I'm worried that I can't find a place to buy it."

That Xiao Shengzi was a warmhearted person. When he heard that Gu Xiaowan wanted to buy pen and paper for his brother, he secretly admired the family. Although they were still poor at present, they were poor and ambitious. This family will definitely be extraordinary in the future.

"This is so busy." Seeing Gu Xiaowan's politeness, Xiao Shengzi scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Let's go, I just have nothing to do, I'll take you with me."

Under the guidance of Xiao Shengzi, several people arrived at the Yushulou library at once. This bookstore is located in a remote and quiet place, not as prosperous as the main street, but it is better than clean.

As soon as I walked into the Jade Book Building, the unique ink fragrance in the book room was absent. Besides the ink fragrance, there seemed to be some other incense burnt. The ancients liked to burn incense and read books, but Gu Xiaowan didn't know much about these things. Fortunately, she soon saw a small incense burner in one place, with wisps of cigarettes in it. walk into one

Point, the aroma is stronger, but it is not pungent, on the contrary, it is more pleasant to take advantage of the ink aroma.

The books in this library are neatly arranged on wooden shelves, filling one wall. On the opposite wall, there are still some paintings and calligraphy. Below is a huge desk, with some brushes hanging down, and an inkstone. It seems that people splash ink here from time to time.

Right in front, there is a table, just like a modern cash register, and there is a cabinet in the back with some paper and pens in it, which seems to be used for selling. There are also some red things that look like pairs stacked on the cashier.
