The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

Chapter 46 Buying Calligraphy Copybook

It would be better to ask him to help find it. If he comes a few days later to get it, it shouldn't affect Ni'er's study progress. She agreed to this suggestion immediately.

Seeing that her master had almost finished his work, Nier asked, "Do you have any calligraphy copybooks for the first step to enlightenment?"

The shopkeeper brought Ni'er to where the man had stood just now, "It's all here."

Then he winked at the waiter, asking him why he hadn't kicked the man out yet, as he didn't look like he had money to buy books.

The waiter looked helpless. He had already done everything you said, but he just wouldn't leave.

The shopkeeper sighed silently.

Nier picked up a book at random and asked, "How much is it?"

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up. "This little girl really knows what's good. It's the work of the famous calligrapher Wang Yan. It only costs 580 coins."

Ni'er suddenly felt that this copybook was a hot potato. A copybook for beginners was so expensive, so the expenses for future studies would be like running water.

I opened it and felt that it was not suitable for my brother, so I picked up another book to look at.

At this time, the shabby-looking customer finally chose the book. "How much is this one?"

The shopkeeper looked cold and glanced at the book in the man's hand. "It costs three hundred and fifty coins."

The man was a little embarrassed, and he touched his pocket awkwardly, and his voice became lower, "Can you give me a discount? I only have 330 coins."

His tone was already a little impatient, "I don't bargain here."

The man reluctantly put the book back to its place.

When the shopkeeper saw the two of them looking over there, he explained in a low voice, "He comes here almost every day and stays for half a day. He looks like he won't buy anything. It's been almost half a month, and it's really affecting business."

Nier thought this man was interesting. Even though the shopkeeper chased him away again and again, he still insisted on reading here. He walked forward a few steps and asked, "Are you a student?"

The man looked down at Ni'er and said, "Yes, I am a student of Jinshan Academy."

Jinshan Academy is the town's school, and all the students there are children who have passed the enlightenment stage. However, the families who can go to school are generally not too poor, and almost no one will wear clothes with so many patches. Looking at the crooked stitches, I'm afraid they were not patched by themselves.

Ni'er felt that this man didn't seem like a liar. He should be a poor student as he said. Seeing how studious he was, she felt that he was a bit like herself. If it weren't for the help of the system, she wouldn't be where she is now.

Thinking of this, I felt compassionate and said, "Since you are a student, you must know which calligraphy book is the best for beginners. Why don't you recommend one to me and I will help you pay the 20 cents for the book. How about that?"

The man immediately perked up when he heard this, and took out a copybook from among the pile of copybooks and handed it to Nier, "Although this is not a copybook by a famous master, it is more suitable for enlightenment. It contains the order of strokes, and it is very clear. Even without a teacher to explain, children can understand it."

She took the copybook and opened it. It was exactly what she was looking for, just as he said. Even if Niu Li studied by himself, he could understand it. The name of the author was written on the copybook. Ni'er read it out, "Hu Runsheng."

The man lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly. "It's me. This copybook was written by me. My classmate helped me put it here for consignment. If you hadn't mentioned it just now, I would have almost forgotten about it."

Nier held the calligraphy book and looked at the shopkeeper, "How much?"

The shopkeeper quickly changed his expression, "This copybook is the best-selling one here. It's the last one. It only costs one hundred coins."

Then he came to the man and said, "So you are Hu Runsheng. Can you write a few more calligraphy books? I can increase your share."

"The person who sent the book before was your classmate. I was wondering when he would come, but the real person showed up instead."

The man was overjoyed to hear such news and bowed to Ni'er, "This is the best news I have heard recently. Thank you, sister. I will not consign this calligraphy book to sell anymore. I will give it to you as a thank you gift."

Nier tried to evade the offer, "How can this be possible? You worked so hard to write this, so you should get the money you deserve."

If it's a hundred coins, I can still take it out today, but the tasks in the next few days have become heavier. However, if I take out that much money in front of everyone, I might be exposed. To be on the safe side, I'd better not take it. I'd better borrow it from my master and return it to him tomorrow.

"Master, lend me a hundred coins and I'll pay you back tomorrow."

Zhao Jincheng took out the money without saying a word and put it in Ni'er's hand, and Ni'er handed the money to the shopkeeper.

When Hu Runsheng saw the two were about to leave, he quickly bowed to their backs and said, "If you need me for anything in the future, feel free to come to the academy to find me."

Ni'er didn't look back, just waved.

Hu Runsheng used the money from selling a few calligraphy copies and finally collected 350 wen, and even had a surplus, which he never expected. He was very excited and felt that the little person brought him good luck. All of a sudden, his eyes became brighter and he had more hope for the future.

[Ding~ 60% of the progress of the task of getting rid of the unlucky guy title has been completed]

Nier was drowsy sitting in the carriage, but was startled by the sound and immediately woke up.

Zhao Jincheng glanced over here and thought that Ni'er might have had a nightmare while sleeping, so he didn't take it seriously.

Ni'er felt a little guilty. She glanced at her master several times and saw that he was no different from usual, so she felt relieved.

Finally we got home. The small yard was almost completely occupied by a donkey. The donkey felt very cramped, but knew this was the owner's house and it couldn't kick its legs around.

I didn't dare leave it outside the yard, in case someone took it away. I had to make do with it for the time being. It seemed I had to add another donkey shed to the new house.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw my brother staring at the donkey with shining eyes. Finally, he was not looking at the chicken. I don't know why I could see a hint of embarrassment and shyness in the donkey's eyes. It turned its face away from Niu Li. Its long eyelashes cast a shadow on its face, making it look more like a shy little girl.

Ni'er just thought it was funny and quickly invited Niu Li into the house to eat.

Yan Zi came out of the kitchen carrying the meal, with an unstoppable smile on her face. She glanced into the house and said, "When your father came back, he took a long detour on purpose."

Nier understood what he meant and couldn't help laughing.

The third child in the kitchen was so embarrassed that his face turned red.

I originally wanted to bring the meal to the kang, but now I was in a dilemma. I took a few deep breaths and waited until the heat on my face subsided a little before I pretended to be expressionless and went into the house.

Yan Zi's position was just right for looking outside. It was a real treat to eat and watch the donkeys at the same time. She was in a very good mood. "Our Ni Er is really capable."

The third brother swallowed the dry food in his mouth and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect there would be donkeys."

Somehow, my eyes suddenly turned red and I couldn't help shedding two tears, which I quickly wiped away with my hands.
