Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

"Sister, what have you been thinking about all day?"

"Really." Jiang Wei looked serious, pulled Jiang Huaixu to sit down by the fire, and whispered: "In the past, the children in Shili Village didn't play with you, and I was just as alienated from you as they were. But now and then you've always stood far away from me. Looking at me and others from a distance.

Later, you became smarter, but my sister was still as stupid as before. If something happened, you stood up for her. After you left for so long, I realized that you are a capable girl like my uncle said. From now on I'm afraid that if I have to go further and further away, I won't be able to catch up with you, so I'll wait for you at home and draw pictures for you to see. "

For the past two days, people in the village were saying that Yaomei would definitely leave with her biological father, and they were sighing, which made Jiang Wei feel bad.

Jiang Huaixu didn't expect Jiang Wei, who usually looked carefree, to have such delicate thoughts. She nodded seriously, "Sister, if you want to learn to draw, I can learn it, but do you know all the characters?"

Jiang Wei, who was brought to tears by what she said, held back her tears instantly when she heard Yaomei's last words. She held back her tears for a long time and asked, "Hua Hua, why do you need to read?"

"Not only do you need to be able to read but you also need to be able to write. Wouldn't it look good to have a good painting with words that look like ghosts crawling?"

“…not pretty”

"It's okay if it doesn't look good, sister. If you want to learn, then study hard. If you finish it, how about I open a unique bookstore for you?" Jiang Huaixu smiled with crooked eyebrows.

Jiang Wei seemed to have heard something extraordinary and pointed at herself in a daze, "I...open a bookstore?"

Did she hear it correctly? Just open a shop, why should it be a bookstore?

Jiang Huaixu was really not kidding. It was pure nonsense for her to say who was farther away than her. What she wanted to do was to move forward together.

Jiuxi Village was particularly lively on the second day. A group of county school students came to Jiang Huaixu's home.

Jiang Dalang saw four young men dressed as Confucian scholars knocking on his door and asked inexplicably: "Who are you looking for?"

Chen Xuanming took a step forward and bowed respectfully, "You are the brother of Jiang Xun and Mrs. Jiang, right? I, Chen Xuanming, brought my classmates here because..."

Yang Zheng interrupted him impatiently, "Let's come find Jiang Xun and Jiang Huaixu. Are they at home?"

Jiang Dalang glanced at Chen Xuanming, whose eyes were not very happy, "Ah, yes, come in!"

He opened the door and turned around to call his siblings.

In the past two days, it was easy to see the shadow of my second brother, and I was almost buried in the questions and articles of the Jiangnan Provincial Examination.

Jiang Huaixu and Jiang Erlang looked at the four people in front of them, looked at each other, and asked in unison: "Why are you here?"

"Of course I came to play with you!" Yang Zheng said first, "It's not easy to find you. This Jiuxi Village is too remote."

"If you have anything to say, come in and say something." Jiang Dalang saw them standing in the yard and opened the door of the main room. "There is a fire in the house, keep it warm."

Yang Zheng immediately walked into the room unceremoniously, "Thank you, brother!"

After a while, Jiang Erlang looked at the four people opposite and asked them why they came.

Several people looked at Chen Xuanming, and Chen Xuanming looked at Jiang Huaixu, "I wonder if Miss Jiang has Master Shen's pen and ink? I want to keep it for my collection..."

Why do you look so starstruck?

Jiang Huaixu frowned, "Do you know Lord Shen?"

"My father met Mr. Shen once at the inn."

"You know he is in Beichuan County and you know where he lives. Why don't you go and ask for it yourself?"

"He can't even meet him, so who can he ask for help?" Yang Zheng said gloatingly.

Bai Erlang looked at him with disgust and said, "When Xuan Ming was a child, he heard about the deeds of Lord Shen and admired him very much. He didn't dare to alarm the Lord. It was only after he heard that Miss Jiang had a good relationship with the Lord that he begged Miss Jiang. , please don’t blame me, Miss Jiang.”

Chen Xuanming nodded repeatedly, his eyes looking eager.

Hearing this, Jiang Huaixu raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that the relationship between her and her father had not spread yet.

Before she could answer, another voice suddenly came from outside.

Jiang Erlang stood up and went out and saw that he was an acquaintance.

His eyes turned cold, "Mr. Chen, is this person an acquaintance of yours?"

Chen Xuanming's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around to see Wu Sanjin holding something in his hand, but Jiang Dalang blocked the door.

"I'm an acquaintance..." Yang Zheng was suddenly stepped on by someone in the middle of his words. He looked towards the instigator. Bai Erlang was sitting seriously as if nothing had happened.

Chen Xuanming didn't know if he went out without reading the almanac, but he finally found time and ran into Wu Sanjin.

When Jiang Huaixu saw the person coming outside, the people in the room seemed to have fallen into a dye vat, with different expressions. He couldn't help but walk out of the room and asked Jiang Erlang: "Second brother, who is that person?"

"Wu Sanjin I told you about before."

Seeing that Wu Sanjin kept waving to him, Jiang Erlang walked to the door and asked Wu Sanjin: "Why did you come here this time?"

"I apologize," Wu Sanjin raised the gift in his hand and said with a grimace, "Little brother, I'm really sorry. I was not kind before. You have a lot of money, so please spare me this time. I will definitely learn from this pain in the future, remember this lesson, and never do it again!”

"Okay, okay, you can leave. If you don't leave, I will close the door." Jiang Dalang was impatient to waste words with him.

"You have to accept these things. If you don't accept them, it won't work." The things in his hands were like hot potatoes. Wu Sanjin, who was blocked by Jiang Dalang, kept stuffing them into the cracks.

"Brother, this shopkeeper Wu sincerely apologizes. Just accept it." Jiang Huaixu said loudly.

Jiang Dalang turned to look at Yaomei and accepted the gift.

Wu Sanjin was overjoyed. He bowed and retreated to the carriage. He climbed up without caring about his dignity. When he got on the carriage, he did not forget to apologize to the two people standing at the door until the carriage was gone.
