Chapter 115: Buy paper and pen

Gu Xiaowan looked left and right, hoping to find a place where she could sell the four treasures of her study. It’s just that, from the perspective of this small street, I only saw the sale of some commonly used items, and did not see the sale of paper and pen.
Little Stone found that Gu Xiaowan was always looking around and asked, "Xiaowan, what are you looking for?"
"Brother Shitou, I want to buy some pen and paper for Ning'an and the others to go back to practice calligraphy." Gu Xiaowan said, "It's just that this place doesn't seem to exist!"
"Sister!" Gu Ning'an stood by, and heard that Gu Xiaowan was going to buy paper and pen, the whole person's face burst into dazzling brilliance: "Sister, are you going to buy paper and pen?"
"Well, you and Ning Ping have both learned to write. I thought it’s not a problem to always write on the ground. It’s better to buy some paper and pen to practice handwriting. I just don’t know where they are sold. Ask others."
Shitou nodded. He had never seen that item sold anywhere. He couldn't even eat enough to eat, and where there was spare money to buy those items.
"After we have bought the pair, let's buy paper and pen." Gu Xiaowan made up her mind and said.
"Girl Gu"
Suddenly, a person came out from the diagonal thorn and screamed in surprise.
Gu Xiaowan looked forward, but it was Xiao Shengzi in Jinfu Tower last time. Gu Xiaowan smiled decently: "Brother Shengzi, it has been gone for a few days."
The little Shengzi smiled: "I have been watching just now, and thought I had confessed to the wrong person. It seems that I did not admit it!"
Gu Xiaowan smiled and said without the slightest embarrassment, "I was a little shabby last time."
To be so honest, I didn't mind what I was wearing before, and I had to admire it. A little girl, at the age of loving beauty, is so natural and unpretentious, but it is commendable.
Xiao Shengzi carefully observed that after the little girl changed into clean clothes, although she was still in coarse linen clothes, her grace was not what an ordinary country girl had.
Thinking that even the boss of his own home would value this little girl with a three-pointer, Xiao Shengzi did not dare to underestimate it. I nodded. Last time I went to Jinfulou to send winter bamboo shoots, I had naturally seen it. I nodded. The other three children, two of them are exactly the same, except for the look on their faces. A little weird, a little calm. There was also a little girl who was held by Gu Xiaowan.
Seeing Xiao Shengzi looking at her younger brothers and sisters, Gu Xiaowan generously introduced: "This is Xiao Shengzi's brother in Jinfu Tower. These are my brothers and sisters."
After seeing each other, Xiao Shengzi was a little surprised, but these brothers and sisters were polite. But many towns, and even the little girls and little boys in the county can't compare.
Xiao Shengzi admired Gu Xiaowan even more. I heard that this family has no parents. In the past few years, Gu Xiaowan has been taking care of these children as father and mother. It is indeed not easy to educate these children so well.

"Miss Gu, what are you doing here?" Xiao Shengzi asked, "I'm 28 today, why are you still in town? Many shops in this town are almost closed."
"Thinking that the family's pair and firecrackers have not been bought yet. No, I followed Brother Stone to the town and bought the pair and firecrackers."
"That is, every household must post red pairs and set off firecrackers during the New Year." Xiao Shengzi smiled and said, "Miss Gu, if you don't dislike it, I will introduce you to a place to buy a pair."
"Where is it to be disgusted, the distinguished guest welcomes the door, my cousin must be too happy to be happy." Xiao Shengzi's words are indeed true. The day after Gu Xiaowan sent the menu to Jinfulou, Xiao Shengzi's cousin took the whole family to Jinfulou for a meal. Xiao Shengzi ordered these two dishes specially, and the cousin and the aunts and uncles ate them all.
Of course, the boss has specifically explained that he must not let others know that the new dishes in Jinfu Building were made by this little girl, and he is afraid that other people will have dirty thoughts that shouldn't be brought up, and it will actually harm the girl. .
"If you walk a little further from here, you will arrive at a bookstore in Yushulou, where there are pairs for sale."
Bookstore? Do you sell books?
"Bookstore? Are there any books for sale there?" Gu Xiaowan asked in surprise.
"Yes, that is the bookstore opened by my cousin. My eldest cousin is a scholar. When the Chinese New Year comes, he will write some pairs at home and put them in the bookstore. The person who buys the book can give a pair as a gift. You Just go there and say it was introduced by my little Shengzi, and my cousin will send you two pairs."
"I'm so sorry." Gu Xiaowan quickly refused: "Does your cousin sell pens and papers?"
"Yes!"
"That's great, my brother has just learned to write a few words these days, and wants to buy him some paper and pen to go back, but Zhengzhou can't find a place to buy it."
That little Shengzi was enthusiastic. When I heard that Gu Xiaowan wanted to buy pen and paper for her younger brother, she secretly admired the family. Although they are still poor at present, they are still very poor, and this family will definitely be extraordinary in the future.
"What a busy time." Seeing Gu Xiaowan's politeness, Xiao Shengzi scratched his head with embarrassment: "Let's go, it just happens that I'm fine, I'll take you with me."
Under the guidance of Xiao Shengzi, a few people arrived at the Yushulou Bookstore all at once. This bookstore is located in a remote and secluded place, not as prosperous as the main street, but it is better than clean.
As soon as I walked into the Yushulou, if the unique ink scent in that bookstore was absent, there seemed to be some other incense burned besides the ink scent. Ancient people like to burn incense and read books, but Gu Xiaowan didn't understand this very well. Fortunately, she soon saw a small incense burner in one place, with wisps of cigarettes in it. Stepping in, the scent is stronger, but it is not pungent. On the contrary, the ink scent is better.
The books in this book building are neatly arranged with wooden shelves, and they fill a wall. On the opposite wall, there are some calligraphy and paintings. Below is a huge desk with some writing brushes and an inkstone. It seems that people are splashing ink here from time to time.
Right in front, there is a counter, just like a modern cash register, and there is a cabinet in the back with some paper and pens inside, which seems to be used for selling. There are some red things that look like a pair on the cash register.
