Chapter 212: Buying Good Things

Qiao Xiaoru was funny, so she had to change her words honestly, "Don't hide it from Fat, Sister Fat said, I'm going to send them to school in a few days, and I specially went into the city today to buy some things to use!" ”

Sister Fat said "oh", glanced at Xiao Dou Sprouts and Brother Bao, and said with a smile: "These two are your little brother-in-law?" ”

"This is a little uncle, this is a nephew!" Qiao Xiaoru said with a smile.

The fat sister showed a look of surprise, and smiled at her: "It's really rare for you to be a sister-in-law and an aunt!" ”

How big is it to send children to school? If you can, you will definitely do it yourself, and it is absolutely impossible to hand it over to such a young daughter-in-law.

Since it is such a young daughter-in-law who brought the two children into the city today, it means that she is in charge of this matter, and she attaches great importance to these two children from the bottom of her heart.

"These two children are quite clever and smart, it's a pity not to go to school!" Qiao Xiaoru smiled.

was about to take the opportunity to say goodbye again, but the fat sister patted her on the shoulder and gave her a thumbs up and said, "Okay!" Words, smiled and said: "I like people like my sister, I have to stay at our house for lunch today!" Well, isn't that just buying such a little thing? Spring flowers, you go! ”

The little woman who ** flower smiled, "Hey! With a sound, he turned around and ran outside, Qiao Xiaoru didn't even have a chance to speak!

The fat sister laughed, "Sister, come, sit, if you want to eat, let the two girls make it!" ”

Where can Qiao Xiaoru go? Only thanksgiving remained.

The two little ones soon played with Lu Jiuque, Lu Jiuque proudly led them to the backyard to play, Qiao Xiaoru was not at ease, and let the foolish man follow. Xia Hua Qiuhua went to buy vegetables and cook, and Sister Fat pulled Qiao Xiaoru to sit down and talk.

The fat sister is really broad-hearted and fat, speaks and acts quickly, has a hearty and heroic personality, and has excellent eloquence, after a few words, Qiao Xiaoru can't help but like her a little, but the more they talk, the more they fall in love.

Suddenly, footsteps came in from outside, and no one saw a man's rough voice coming in: "What's wrong?" Who bullied us? ”

Before the words fell, a man with a tiger's back and a beard appeared in his eyes, with rough facial features and blazing eyes, wearing a rather particular tolerance suit, and carrying a big knife at his waist, majestic.

Qiao Xiaoru was stunned.

The man was also stunned, then scratched his head and softened his voice and smiled: "Uh, there are guests here!" ”

The fat sister gave him a fierce look, and said angrily: "Thanks to my sister for saving Jiuqiao, otherwise Jiuqiao would be miserable!" Jiu Que suffered a big loss this time, with a lot of injuries on his body, and his foot was twisted! Su San, that little bastard, there will be a next time the old lady breaks his legs! ”

Qiao Xiaoru hurriedly smiled: "I also happened to pass by, just a gesture!" ”

The man waved his hand, hugged his fists and said, "In Xia Lu Qi, thank you sister-in-law for saving the child!" ”

Qiao Xiaoru hurriedly said politely.

The fat sister waved her hand and said with a smile: "Deserve it, you can afford it!" How else can it be fate? Coincidentally, it was my sister who saved Jiuque, and it happened that my sister and I fell in love so much! Sister is a happy person, I think my sister is also a happy person, let's just come and go politely, see more outside! ”

After speaking, he glared at the man again: "What little sister-in-law?" I'll call my sister, you should call my aunt! ”

A touch of helplessness flashed in Lu Qi's eyes, so he had no choice but to smile at Qiao Xiaoru: "Sister! ”

Qiao Xiaoru was also a little dizzy when she was a little short of oxygen in her head, and when she heard this, she subconsciously said, "Brother-in-law! ”

When I came back to my senses, my face was slightly hot, and I was suddenly a little embarrassed. The fat sister was very happy, laughed heartily, and laughed with great satisfaction: "Good, good! It's my sister! ”

Qiao Xiaoru smiled helplessly, and was a little embarrassed.

Lu Chunhua really helped buy back two sets of four treasures and several books, which made Qiao Xiaoru look at them the same, and Qiao Xiaoru saw that they were all explained by Li Zheng, and they were not bad.

Qiao Xiaoru breathed a sigh of relief, that's it, save yourself another trip! She didn't know how much silver she should have, so she didn't wait for Lu Chunhua to open her mouth and gave her a silver ticket of ten taels and two taels of broken silver and said with a smile: "I don't know if it's enough, if it's not enough, I'll make it up for you!" ”

In other words, Lu Chunhua is two or three years older than her, so it stands to reason that she should call Sister Chunhua, but she called someone else's mother to be her sister, and the three words Sister Chunhua can't be called anyway.

Lu Chunhua laughed, took the silver ticket and blocked the broken silver, and said with a smile: "Jiu Que doesn't care if you call your aunt, of course the three of us sisters have to follow suit!" Ten taels of silver is also a bit much, a total of nine taels were spent, aunt wait, I'll find you some extra money! ”

Qiao Xiaoru said with a smile: "Please run away, you don't have to look for it!" Besides, if we buy it ourselves, it will definitely be more than nine taels, and I am afraid that we will not be able to take ten taels! ”

In these years, papermaking was the most primitive kind, and the paper used by readers to write was more delicate than ordinary paper, and it was more troublesome to make, so the price was naturally higher.

There is also a pen and ink inkstone, which is slightly better, and it is not cheap, at least compared to other goods, the cost performance is low.

It's nothing, the most expensive is the books!

The historical limitations of papermaking and printing are here, and a thin copy of the "Three Character Classic" will be sold for a tael of silver! The Analects is the minimum of two taels of silver!

The cost is here, even Emperor Taizu has no problem, and he can't open a modern printing house!

Therefore, a family, especially a rural family, wants to send a child to school and provide for him until he has a profit, which is really a big expense, not just a bundle for the husband every year! It's more about the money to buy books.

And most importantly, no one can guarantee that they will come out after reading it. If you're just a showman, or even just a child, it's nothing at all! Then all the money invested is equivalent to meat buns beating dogs!

Few rural people are willing to bear this kind of consequences.

Because of this, Qiao Xiaoru agreed to send Brother Bao'er to school, and the Li family immediately made a 360-degree turn in attitude, and even did not hesitate to contradict his mother-in-law!

Lu Chunhua was also very happy when she heard this, thinking that she was not in vain, but she would not accept the silver, and smiled at Qiao Xiaoru: "Look at what my aunt said, I see the outside!" How precious my legs are, it's worth a tael of silver to run such a little way! ”

Qiao Xiaoru also laughed, and had to accept the one or two pieces of silver she found.
