Chapter 357

Bai Shanbao and man Bao are regular visitors to the bookstore. As soon as they enter the bookstore, they are familiar with the way to take Bai Erlang to find the calligraphy, and secretly urge them, "hurry up and choose. Let's go out and play."

Bai Erlang wanted to take one with him. Man Bao had opened a calligraphy note and asked, "what kind of font do you like? Round or thin? It can't be scribbled, can it? "

Bai Shanbao had selected two copies from a pile of calligraphy and handed them to him, "these two are good. Choose them yourself."

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

"No, your father will be angry when he knows," man Bao said. "Do your own thing?"

Bai Erlang tooted his mouth and said, "but I don't like writing."

Man Bao said, "I don't like eggs, and big head and big ya don't like rice transplanting in the field..."

Bai Erlang asked Qu Baba to choose a calligraphy note. Man Bao didn't understand why she should be wronged. She was so big that she didn't have a calligraphy note of her own.

They were all copied by Bai Shanbao.

Bai Erlang hesitated here before he made up his mind. Master Bai over there had picked out several books in the bookstore and was waving to the three children with a smile, "come and see the books I chose for you, Erlang. Do you still like them?"

Bai Erlang couldn't help opening his mouth when he saw the book in his father's hand. He faintly regretted. In fact, the county was not so fun.

Bai Shanbao and man Bao came forward. They turned forward and were not very interested.

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

One said, "I've read this book. I can't understand many of them. I think I have to grow a little longer."

Master Bai looked at the two children in surprise. His words were actually frightening them. He chose this book for himself.

Master Bai was silent for a moment, and then turned to his son.

Bai Erlang was also looking through the books selected by master Bai. He found that he didn't know any of them, and even couldn't understand the meaning of the book name. He scratched his head.

Master Bai became more and more silent. He saw the two children flashing their eyes at the busy street outside. He felt that he could not allow the two children to grow up freely. Since they were so intelligent and eager to learn, they should be binding.

So master Bai squeezed out a bright smile on the two children and said, "do you have any books to buy? Pick it out and I'll buy it for you. "

Bai Shanbao shook his head first. "Cousin, there are a lot of books in my family. My grandmother will buy some new books home every once in a while. There is no shortage of books in my family."

"There are always books you want to read but don't have at home? It's rare to come to the county. My cousin bought you some books, but you have to promise me to read them when you buy them back. After reading them, I have to take the school examination. "

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

Master Bai was more and more kind to her and said softly, "this is your uncle's encouragement. It's a pity for a child as good as you to read. So you just choose, and uncle invites you."

Man Bao still shakes his head.

A book is not cheap.

And what manbao likes is not an ordinary book.

She has some thin books, such as the cheapest thousand word essay and the Analects of Confucius, as well as other common books, Mr. Bai and Bai Shanbao, which are basically left to her to read and copy.

So what manbao wants to buy is basically very expensive books.

My mother said, there will be no pie in the sky. If you drop it, you will have to give a chicken to God when you pick up the pie.

Dad said that people in the world are both good and bad, but those who seek profits must account for 90%. No one will not like Li. If a person treats you for no reason, it is because you are cute; But that person's good needs to spend a lot of money. It must be the other party's plot.

Old Zhou tou had made rules for man Bao long ago and said, "you can accept gifts worth less than 500 Wen. You can't take gifts worth more than 500 Wen. Your parents can't afford it."

So man Bao carefully glanced at the thick books on the shelf not far away and resolutely refused master Bai's kindness.

She felt a little sorry. If only master Bai gave her those beautiful toys on the street. She asked the price, but they were not very expensive.

Seeing that he could not send out a book, master Bai was a little sorry, and then turned to his son.

Bai Shanbao and man Bao can refuse, but his son can't refuse, can he?

So master Bai smiled at his son, waved generously and said, "Erlang, go and see if there are any books you like. Take them and dad will buy them 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 just use my brother's old books."

"No, I have a bowl of water for your brother. Your eldest brother has it, and so do you."

Bai Erlang said weakly, "no, I think it's good to use brother's old books."

Bai Shanbao and man Bao probably understood his pain and looked at him sympathetically.

Finally, Bai Erlang still failed to fight master Bai. Under his oppression, he chose several books he didn't like.

When he got out of the bookstore, not only did Bai Erlang feel like a survivor, but Bai Shanbao and man Bao were relieved.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore smiled so much that his eyes were almost narrowed. He kindly helped to send the books, pen, ink, paper and inkstone bought by master Bai to the carriage, and then stood at the door happily waving goodbye to man Bao and others.

Instead of getting into the carriage, man Bao 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 fee for entering the city, everyone still likes to visit the city.

Of course, most of them are unmarried guys and big girls who can talk about marriage, as well as those who are relatively rich and don't spend a few money to bring their families into the city.

Therefore, most of them sell food and various accessories and toys on the street.

Bai Erlang and Bai Shanbao have played with many toys, even at home, but they still want to buy them when they see them in the street.

Both of them are still so, let alone full of treasure.

Her toys are made by her family. The old Zhou family never buy toys for their children. They all think it's better to have that money to buy food?

After all, I can eat and eat. I don't like playing for a while. Thanks.

So man Bao likes windmills that turn against the wind, small Trojans and Mutuo snails

Although master Bai is usually a little stingy, he is still very generous with these small toys for children, mainly because these things are not expensive.

Cheap two or three Wen, expensive ten Wen or so can buy, so he was very generous and said to his three children that he would take whatever he liked and pay!

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

Bai Shanbao is even more impolite.

After walking less than 200 meters, the three children held a lot of things in their arms. All three were happy. Finally, they felt it was right to come to the county.
