118 Excited
But Xu Xianlin didn't listen to Gu Xiaowan's words, waved his hand, and said boldly, "That's it, don't say it."
Gu Xiaowan wanted to say something, and the little stone tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Okay, that's what my cousin is like."
Gu Xiaowan had no choice but to give up. The two sides agreed that they would come to class after the Lantern Festival. However, Xu Xianlin took the book and pen, ink, paper and inkstone that Gu Xiaowan had just selected and gave it to Gu Ning'an: "Keep it all, study at home, and come back to test you for the teacher."
As soon as this Gu Ning'an saw the book, his eyes were bright, and he was calm and generous. He would definitely be a promising person in the future.
After everyone had paid their respects, they followed Xiao Shengzi out of the Jade Book Building. Gu Xiaowan sighed to herself that this trip was really worth it, she bought everything she wanted, and in addition, she did what she wanted to do the most. Now, when Gu Ningan and Gu Ningping could go to the school to study after the Chinese New Year, Gu Xiaowan was elated.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaowan repeatedly thanked Xiao Shengzi: "Xiao Shengzi, I really thank you today. Thanks to your help today, I solved a big problem for me."
Xiao Shengzi naturally knew what Gu Xiaowan was talking about, so he quickly waved his hand: "What's this, just dozing off and hitting the pillow, I just took you to buy pen and paper, who would have thought that he would be a teacher. He could be my cousin. Students, this is all God's will. You may not know that my cousin was originally a man of honor. He had already been an official, but he didn't like the intrigue and intrigue in the officialdom, so he resigned and came back to open a home school. He specializes in teaching children. Let's read." After listening to this, Gu Xiaowan suddenly realized that this is the case, looking at the temperament of this uncle's body, it is different from ordinary people.
"And my cousin, my cousin got a son when he was in his thirties, and he was admitted to a scholar at the age of eleven. This is a strange thing in the whole town. Everyone says my cousin is Prodigy." Xiao Shengzi said proudly: "It's just a pity that I didn't see my cousin today. I don't know where I went to find books. My cousin is a bookworm, as long as he has books to read, he can do anything. Since I was admitted to the Xiucai, my cousin stopped taking the test, and taught at home with my cousin, he taught the younger children enlightenment." Gu Xiaowan felt a little pity, but everyone has their own aspirations.
"But no matter what, you're the one who helped with today's work." Gu Xiaowan is someone who repays her kindness. It was also because of Xiao Shengzi's recommendation that the two Gu Ning'an brothers were exempted from their bundle repairs, and they also gave away such a large amount of pen and paper for free, of course I would like to thank them.
"You still thank me, I haven't thanked you yet."
thank yourself? Gu Xiaowan listened, a little strange: "Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for the things you sent to the building last time!" Xiao Shengzi said: "You don't know how hot the business has been these days. The things you sent last time were all used up in two days. There are still a lot of guests coming to eat, but there are none. The shopkeeper will ask people to wait for the new year to come back. However, Miss Gu, you can go dig those bamboo shoots. The shopkeeper kept talking about it last time, saying that he wanted to Let you continue the delivery, but unfortunately I don't know where your home is, so I can only be in a hurry, just when we meet, I will tell you first."
"Okay, when the weather is a little warmer, we'll go digging." Gu Xiaowan thought that the business was coming to the door again, she quickly answered, and told the stone on the side: "Brother Stone, let's go dig together at that time."
"Well, good." Shishi was also eager to try when he thought that there was money to be made.
"Okay, then it's settled. When the bamboo shoots come out, you can send them to Jinfu Building as soon as possible." Xiao Shengzi laughed, then approached Gu Xiaowan, lowered his voice, and whispered. He said, "Last time you went to Jinfu Lou to deliver recipes, my shopkeeper praised me and secretly gave me a big red envelope at the end of the year."
Seeing that Xiao Shengzi was so happy, Gu Xiaowan was also happy, and the group said goodbye in laughter.
Then, Shito took him to buy some firecrackers. After seeing that it was getting late, he drove the ox cart back.
Stone first sent the four Gu Xiaowan siblings home, and then drove the ox cart back.
Gu Ning'an held the new book just sent by Mr. Xu in his hand, and the excitement in his heart has not calmed down, as if everything seemed to be a dream.
There is a new book.
There are also pen, ink, paper and inkstone. When practicing calligraphy, you will no longer have to squat on the ground and scratch with broken tiles.
What made Gu Ning'an even more excited was that after the Lantern Festival, he could go to the school to study. Today, he has already studied with a teacher.
Gu Ning'an's excited mood is hard to calm down, but Gu Ningping is much calmer.
After eating a bowl of gnocchi at random in the evening, Gu Xiaowan placed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, took out the paper, put it away, Gu Ning'an washed her hands and took a pen reverently, with a respectful appearance, as if It's like doing a sacred thing.
People who love books must cherish books, and this is certainly true.
Under the guidance of her grandfather in her previous life, Gu Xiaowan wrote quite well in traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. She used to scratch with broken tiles on the ground, but she couldn't see it. Gu word. Gu Xiaowan has studied the small script of hairpins for a long time before, and her style of writing belongs to Qingwan Xiurun. But this word is good for girls to write, if boys learn it, it is not a good match.
As a result, Gu Xiaowan's words are written in a graceful and graceful manner, which can be learned by both men and women.
Gu Ning'an looked at Gu Xiaowan with a bit of fascination as she wrote the word "Gu" one by one, and couldn't help saying, "Sister, your writing is so beautiful!"
"Practice more, and you can write it." Gu Xiaowan liked the calligraphy from a long time ago. It was written like a dog crawling. Later, my grandfather couldn't stand it anymore. Every day, he took Gu Xiaowan to learn calligraphy for an hour.
Under the guidance of my grandfather, Gu Xiaowan has been studying for more than ten years. Later, the writing became more and more beautiful. After tasting this sweetness, Gu Xiaowan couldn't stop writing at all.
When she has nothing to do, she likes to write calligraphy for half an hour to an hour. At that time, because of her good calligraphy, she represented the whole city in a national calligraphy competition, and she even moved back with a first prize.
I remember when my grandfather said that the reward was half of Gu Xiaowan and half of his old man, he just took the trophy and put it in his study.
