Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Bai Shanbao and Manbao are regulars at the bookstore. Once they enter the bookstore, they are familiar with the way they take Bai Erlang to find the copybook, and secretly urged, "Choose quickly, we'll go out to play after we've chosen."

Bai Erlang just wanted to pick up a copy, but Man Bao had already opened a copybook and asked, "What kind of font do you like? A little rounder, or a little longer? It can't be scribbled, right?"

Bai Shanbao had already selected two copies from a pile of copybooks and handed them to him, "These two are good, you can choose by yourself."

Bai Erlang opened the copybook like a duck on the shelf, and asked in a low voice, "When I get home, can you copy the copybook for me?"

"No, your father will be angry when he finds out," Man Bao said, "Do your own business, right?"

Bai Erlang pouted and said, "But I don't like writing."

Man Bao said: "I don't like to eat eggs either, and Da Tou and Da Ya don't like going to the fields to plant rice..."

Bai Erlang chose a copybook because of his grievance. Man Bao didn't understand why he was wronged. She was so grown up and didn't have a copybook of her own.

They are all copied by Bai Shanbao.

Bai Erlang dawdled here before he made up his mind. Over there, Master Bai had already picked out several books in the bookstore, and he was smiling and beckoning to the three children, "Come and see the books I chose for you, Erlang, you Do you still like it?"

When Bai Erlang saw the book in his father's hand, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide. He felt a little regretful, but the county town wasn't that fun.

However, Bai Shanbao and Manbao stepped forward, and they were not very interested when they stepped forward and turned around.

One said, "I have this book at home, and I don't want to buy it."

One said: "I have read this book, but I don't understand a lot of it. I think I have to read it for a long time."

Master Bai looked at the two children in astonishment. He was actually trying to frighten them. He chose this book for himself.

Master Bai was silent for a while, then turned to look at his son.

Bai Erlang was also flipping through the books selected by Master Bai, and found that he didn't know any of them, and he couldn't even understand the meaning of the book titles, so he couldn't help scratching his head.

Master Bai became more and more silent. Seeing that the two children were staring at the lively streets outside, he felt that they could not be allowed to grow up freely like this. Since they are so smart and eager to learn, they should be binding.

So Master Bai gave the two children a bright smile and said, "Do you have any books you want to buy? Choose them, and I will buy them for you."

Bai Shanbao shook his head first, "Uncle Tang, I have a lot of books at home, and my grandmother would buy some new books to go home every once in a while. My family is not short of books."

"Then there are always books that you want to read but don't have at home? It's rare to come to the county town once, and Uncle Tong will buy you a few books, but you have to promise me that you can read them when you buy them back. After reading them, I have to take an exam."

Man Bao felt that it was not good to accept such precious things, so he also refused.

Master Bai became more and more kind to her, and said softly: "This is the encouragement that my uncle gave you. It would be a pity for a child as good as you to read because you don't have enough books, so you just choose, and uncle invites you."

Man Bao still shook his head.

A book is not cheap.

And it's not just any ordinary book that can be liked by Man Bao.

She has the cheapest books like "Thousand Characters" and "The Analects of Confucius", as well as other common books, such as Mr. Bai and Bai Shanbao. Basically, she is allowed to read and copy.

So what Man Bao wants to buy are basically very expensive books.

My mother said that the pie will not fall from the sky. If it does, if you pick up the pie, you will have to give a chicken to God.

Dad said that people in the world are mixed, but those who seek profit must account for 90%. No one will dislike Li, if a person is nice to you for no reason, it is because you are cute; but the good of that person needs to spend a lot of money, it must be the other party's conspiracy.

The old man Zhou had set up rules for Man Bao long ago, saying: "You can accept any gift worth less than 500 wen. If it is more than 500 wen, you can't take it, and your parents can't afford it."

So Man Bao carefully glanced at the thick books on the bookshelf not far away, and firmly rejected Master Bai's kindness.

She felt a little regretful in her heart, it would be nice if Master Bai gave her those beautiful toys on the street, but she asked the price, and they were not very expensive.

Seeing that he couldn't send out a book, Master Bai felt a little regretful, and then turned to look at his son.

Bai Shanbao and Man Bao can refuse, but his son can't refuse, right?

So Master Bai squeezed a smile to his son and waved his hand generously: "Erlang, go see if you still have a book you like, bring it here, and Dad will buy it for you."

Bai Erlang was about to cry, he shook his head and said, "No, Dad, I think there are more books at home, I'll just use the old books from my eldest brother."

"No, I treat your brothers with a good bowl of water. What your elder brother has, you also have it."

Bai Erlang said weakly: "No, I, I think it's good to use the old book of my eldest brother."

Bai Shanbao and Man Bao probably understood his pain and gave him a sympathetic look.

In the end, Erlang Bai still couldn't fight against Master Bai, and under his pressure, he chose several books that he didn't like.

When he walked out of the bookstore, not only Bai Erlang felt the rest of his life, but Bai Shanbao and Manbao breathed a sigh of relief.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore smiled so much that his eyes almost narrowed, he diligently helped to deliver the books, ink, paper, inkstone, etc. bought by Master Bai to the carriage, and then stood at the door happily waving goodbye to Man Bao and others.

Man Bao and the others did not get on the carriage, but walked down the street.

The winter is long, and everyone is idle and bored, so there are more economic activities on the street. Although there is still a city fee to enter the city, everyone still likes to go shopping in the city.

Of course, most of them are unmarried, but it can be said that the big boys and big girls are close, and there are people from relatively wealthy families who don't pay a few cents to go to the city and drag their families to take care of them.

Therefore, most people sell food, accessories and toys on the street.

Many toys Bai Erlang and Bai Shanbao have played with, and even have them at home now, but they still can't help but want to buy them when they see them on the street.

The two of them are still like this, let alone full of treasures.

Her toys are all made by her family. The old Zhou family never buys toys for their children. Wouldn't it be better to have the money to buy food?

After all, the food can still enter the stomach, and I don't like it after playing for a while, thanks to it.

So Man Bao likes the windmill that turns against the wind, likes the little wooden horse, likes the wooden top...

Although Master Bai usually picks up a little, he is very generous with these little toys for children, mainly because these things are not expensive.

The cheap two or three cents can be bought for the expensive ten cents, so he generously told the three children that he would take whatever he likes, and he would pay!

Man Bao asked about the price and felt that it was within the rules given by her father, so she happily chose the toy she liked.

Bai Shanbao was even more rude.

After walking less than 200 meters, the three children were holding a lot of things in their arms.
