Chapter 924 Who do you think
Yang Ruoqing protected the two of them and walked forward.
On the way, I discussed with them about buying pens, ink, paper and inkstones.
Da'an said: "Sister, did you really take us to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones? I was just joking with you before..."
Yang Ruoqing said: "You are joking, but I take it seriously."
"Since you are here, sister must give you two a gift."
"You are all scholars, so this gift is naturally a pen, ink, paper and inkstone," she said.
After hearing this, Daan and Dajie looked at each other, both of them looking moved.
"Sister, if you really want to buy it, just buy us two inkstones. We still have paper, pen and ink at home," Da'an said again.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Okay."
The three of them walked forward and passed by a grocery store that looked pretty good from the outside. Daan stopped.
"Sister, there should be someone selling inkstones here," he said.
Yang Ruoqing also stopped, glanced at the grocery store, and then shook her head.
"There must be some, but there are certainly no good ones that are exquisite. I will take you to a shop that specializes in selling the Four Treasures of the Study." She said.
Da'an said: "Sister, Dajie and I bought the paper and pens from the grocery store in town, and they are good for use."
"Besides, we have just started school, so we don't have to go to those expensive places and waste money." Da'an said seriously.
Dajie on the side heard this and nodded in agreement.
Seeing her two younger brothers being so sensible and calculating, Yang Ruoqing was very satisfied.
"We don't spend any money that shouldn't be spent. We don't spend any money that should be spent." She said with a smile.
“Inkstones are something you get what you pay for.”
"Last time, the reason why your inkstone was so dry and cracked that it didn't work well for grinding ink was because it was of poor quality."
She continued.
The last time I used it was the lowest quality tile inkstone, and one inkstone cost less than a hundred cents.
This hundred cents is a big expense in the eyes of rural people.
But in real schools, students with a little bit of wealth don't use that kind of clay inkstone.
But it took the two younger brothers more than half a year...
"But……"
"It's nothing good. This is your first time back to the county. My sister bought two better inkstones as gifts for you!"
Yang Ruoqing interrupted Daan with a smile.
Then he stretched out his hands and put them on the shoulders of the two boys: "Whatever you like later, you can choose it yourself, don't save money for me, sister!"
The three siblings walked all the way looking for it, and then entered a shop called 'Moxiangxuan'.
‘Moxiangxuan’, as Yang Ruoqing understands it, is a specialty store specializing in the Four Treasures of the Study in Daqi State.
There is a branch in Qingshui Town.
Yang Ruoqing didn't go in to see the pens, inks, paper and inkstones sold there with her own eyes.
But I heard they are all high-end.
Da'an went to enlightenment, and Luo Fengtang went there and bought Da'an a Wolf Howler and a stack of rice paper as gifts.
It probably cost nearly three taels of silver.
Three taels of silver, that’s enough food and clothing for a family of five in the countryside for a year!
So now, when the words 'Mo Xiangxuan' appeared in front of her eyes, Yang Ruoqing did not hesitate to bring her two younger brothers to the door.
From the outside, the shop looks very high-end and classy.
Once inside, it is even more antique and elegant, with the fragrance of ink and paper everywhere...
Maybe they deal in things related to scholars. Although this shop is located in a busy city, it is rare and quiet and elegant.
A waiter was greeting a customer over there. When he saw Yang Ruoqing and the others coming in, the waiter smiled and nodded at the three of them from a distance, signaling hello.
Yang Ruoqing also smiled and said to Da'an and Dajie beside her: "The inkstone is on the counter covered with felt over there. You go and take a look first. Then tell your sister which two you have chosen. I will pay for it!"
"Okay, thank you sister!"
As soon as the two boys stepped into this shop, their eyes lit up.
The two of them were very carefree and thrifty when it came to spending money.
However, as scholars, they have their own pursuit of the Four Treasures of the Study.
After hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, the two of them immediately ran to the counter in front, as excited as birds flying into the woods or dragons returning to the sea!
Several samples of inkstones of different textures were placed on the counter.
The two boys were standing at the counter. Their height was exactly half a head taller than the counter.
The two of them were talking quietly while watching. They both paid attention to the impact in public places.
He won't yell and bluff like those unqualified and untrained people.
Yang Ruoqing saw the performance of her two brothers and became more and more satisfied.
While they were choosing, she was also casually looking around in the shop.
The atmosphere is very good.
However, at this moment,
A sharp female voice sounded from the counter.
"Young man, please don't touch that inkstone. If it's dirty, you won't be able to sell it!"
The sudden female voice made Dajie startled.
With a shake of his hand, the inkstone at hand fell to the counter with a bang.
Behind the counter, a fiery red figure rushed over like a gust of wind.
She picked up the inkstone that had fallen on the felt cloth, looked at it, and screamed angrily.
"I told you not to touch it, but you still touch it. Now there is a gap and you can't sell it. You are dead!"
The girl in red screamed and cursed at Daan and Dajie, and walked around the counter to catch them both.
Dajie was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly, and Daan also blushed.
Here, Yang Ruoqing heard the noise and rushed over.
"What's going on?" she asked.
Seeing her coming, Da'an Dajie felt like he had found a savior, and the two boys ran to her with pale faces in panic.
The girl in red turned around angrily and met Yang Ruoqing's eyes.
When their eyes met, both of them were startled at the same time.
"Yang Ruoqing?"
Jin Feng's eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
Looking at Yang Ruoqing who looked slim and graceful in front of her, neither fat nor black at all.
The anger on Jin Feng's face suddenly escalated into an indescribable hatred.
She dug out her eyes again at Da'an and Dajie who were being protected by Yang Ruoqing: "I'm just telling you, two uneducated poor boys ran out of nowhere. They couldn't afford to buy things but they fumbled around for a long time. It turned out to be your brother!"
Jin Feng gritted his teeth and said with a look in his eyes, as if he had spit on poison, wanting to poke holes in the three siblings.
Here, Yang Ruoqing also came to her senses.
Different from Jin Feng's anger and hatred, Yang Ruoqing glanced at the other person lightly, her eyes filled with contempt.
"Oh, who I thought it was, turns out to be the idiot who poisoned the food in his restaurant!"
Yang Ruoqing said.
An understatement brought back something Jin Feng couldn't bear to look back on.
Her face suddenly twisted with anger.
It was this Yang Ruoqing who robbed Luo Fengtang from her and crushed her family's business.
Dad had to close the restaurant in Wanghai and left his hometown to do business elsewhere.
I was unlucky and lost several times in a row.
She can no longer live the life of a young lady like before, and has to come to seek refuge with her cousins and help earn some money for pocket money at the Moxiangxuan they opened!
