Chapter 151 Buying Books 1 update
"Hutian Village..." the proprietor of the grain store drawled, with a confused look on his face, "Why is it Hutian Village? The people in your village are not..."
People in Hutian Village know that they are not welcome, so they try not to walk outside. If they really need to go out, they will not report their home.
Therefore, there are almost no such thorny people as Xu Huaiyi, so the shopkeeper can't help but wonder if there is another village with the same name.
Xu Huaiyi looked blank and innocent, "What happened to Hutian Village?"
The shopkeeper looked at him, was he pretending to be crazy, "You don't know?"
Xu Huaiyi shook his head and said frankly, "We are victims who fled from Qingzhou. We were assigned to Hutian Village by the officials. We have just settled down. What do we know?"
The shopkeeper suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's how it is, then you guys are really..." It was so unlucky that I couldn't tell the difference and fell into the fire pit.
Meeting the shopkeeper's sympathetic gaze, Xu Huaiyi pretended not to understand what he meant, "Is there something wrong with this village? Please give me some advice from the shopkeeper."
Business people don’t want to stir up trouble, so even if the shopkeeper knew it, he wanted to share the gossip, but he restrained himself in the end. He smiled dryly and waved his hands, "There is nothing wrong with it. Let’s just make peace with it. Haha, what about that?" , I will ask the man to deliver the beans to you, don’t worry.”
"Thank you very much, shopkeeper."
After leaving the grain store, Gu Huanxi said thoughtfully, "The things about Hutian Village have been spread so widely. Not only the people in the countryside know about it, but even the people in the city have heard about it. However, although they seem a bit repulsive, But it’s not that taboo, and the result is better than I expected…”
She originally thought that Hutian Village was an ominous place that people kept secretive about and talked about in disgrace. It was the kind of place where anyone would be unlucky and people would not dare to step in. But now it seems that it is not that exaggerated and serious.
Xu Huaiyi said meaningfully, "After all, it has been five years."
Gu Huanxi thought for a while and then understood that whether he was afraid or panicked, all emotions had faded away after five years. Moreover, nothing happened in Hutian Village in the past five years. People were said to be cursed, ominous, or... Bad luck must have some basis, even if it is a rumor, there must be some clues, but in recent years, let alone causing trouble, the people of Hutian Village are so low-key that sometimes people forget their existence.
They bought five hundred kilograms of beans without spending much money. The couple took their children into the bookstore again, and this was where the money was spent.
The bookstore they entered was quite large, but its name was straightforward and simple. It was called Wenmo Pavilion. After entering, all they could see were rows of bookshelves, and even the scent of books and ink was wafting in the air. Gu Huan liked to smell it. The smell made me feel relaxed and happy, while Xu Huaiyi had a sad face and a heavy heart, as if he were visiting a grave.
"Think about what happened just now and be happy." Gu Huanxi suppressed a smile and reminded in a low voice, "What are you training for? Isn't it just to study."
So who should I show my grimace to now?
Xu Huaiyi rubbed his stiff face, forced out a smile, and walked towards the bookshelf as if he were dead, and began to look for the books he needed.
Gu Huanxi took her children to help her search, and she was not in a hurry. She stopped and browsed for a while when she saw something she was interested in. In her previous life, her favorite place to visit was the bookstore, which could make people peaceful.
When she was watching, Ah Li was also watching with wide eyes, as if he could understand.
Gu Xiaoyu followed Xu Huaiyi. He was the fastest in finding books. In a short while, he helped to collect all the seven books of the Martial Arts, namely "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Wu Zi's Art of War" and "Six Tao". , "Sima's Art of War", "Shi Gong's Three Strategies", "Wei Liao Zi", and "Li Weigong Questions and Answers", these seven books are must-learn textbooks for martial arts examinations and are of great significance.
Xu Huaiyi held this thick stack of books in his arms and felt that his waist could not be straightened. "Do I need to buy so many? I, I won't need it for a while, right? I heard that in the martial arts academy, you don't need to write No matter how strategic it is, you just need to know a little about the art of war and be able to read and write. The most important test item is martial arts, which is the key to victory or defeat..."
Gu Huanxi was unmoved, "Sooner or later, it will be used. I don't feel bad about spending money, so you are still gibbering? Besides, where are you now? It's only seven books. Look at those people who are busy taking the Jinshi exam. They are better educated than you." It won’t be more than five times more. Just be content. If you continue to gibberish, I will gather the Four Books and Five Classics for you, so that you can be both civil and military."
"Don't, don't, I was wrong. If you add the Four Books and Five Classics, you will die..."
"Humph, I don't know how blessed I am when I'm in the midst of blessings." She wanted to read it, but she didn't have the chance.
Xu Huaiyi touched his nose and did not dare to say anything. He carried the book and went to the counter to pay. The other party did not need to fiddle with the abacus and just opened his mouth and reported a number.
Twenty six taels!
It’s strange that studying in ancient times cost a lot of money. Ordinary families need the whole family to support their children in studying. Not to mention paper and pens, buying books alone is not affordable. Twenty-six taels is enough for a year’s living expenses.
Gu Huanxi's flesh ached, but it didn't show on his face.
As for Xu Huaiyi, he was only worried about reading so many books, and he didn't care about money, so he spent money happily.
The couple's reaction inevitably made the shopkeeper look at them a few more times. Originally, this family of four was a bit eye-catching when they appeared in a place like a bookstore. Judging from their clothes, they did not look like rich people or scholars, especially when they were wearing It was so rare that my daughter-in-law came, and many people looked at her curiously, but she didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and she just did what she wanted to do. Even now, she was paying the bill, her expression was calm and composed, and she didn't even frown for so much money.
Could it be that he was deliberately dressing low-key to hide his true identity?
After leaving the bookstore, Xu Huaiyi took a deep breath and said, "Daughter-in-law, I have a strong conflict with this kind of place. I will never come here again."
Gu Huanxi chuckled, "Why didn't you say you had a conflict with studying?"
Xu Huaiyi's face tightened and he quickly changed the subject, "What about that, wife, are you hungry? Let's find a place to eat. When we're full, we'll go to the ruined temple to invite the monks."
Gu Huanxi said "hmm", lowered his head and asked Gu Xiaoyu, "What do you want to eat?"
Gu Xiaoyu said, "Sons are fine, just listen to your mother."
Gu Huanxi thought for a while, "Then let's buy some steamed buns and eat them in the car. Wei Ci is still guarding the parking lot. I don't know if anyone is looking for trouble..."
They are unfamiliar with the place, and if someone does find trouble, they will only suffer.
Xu Huaiyi nodded in agreement, and hurriedly bought a dozen steamed buns that had just come out of the basket, with meat and vegetarian fillings. The family of four carried the other things they bought and walked to the parking area.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
But Wei Ci was a little girl after all. She was quite nervous looking at the car alone, facing such an 'important task'. When she saw them coming back, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The car slowly left the city.
