Chapter 98 Borrowing Books
Tao Zhengxing and his brothers copied books, on the one hand to practice calligraphy, and on the other hand, my sister said that the copied books would be remembered in my mind after copying, which was much more useful than just reading it once or several times.

So there are at least three books of each kind in their family, and the books brought back by the younger sister are even more precious, so as soon as they get the books, they will read them first, and then copy them again.

To copy books by yourself, you only need to buy blank books, which can save a lot of money.

What Tao Zhengxing would think about was that one day he would be able to visit Yan Yan's library. If those books were taken out, let alone half of them, it would save them tens of thousands of taels of silver.

"My God, copying so many books, how much money will I save by reading?" Tao Zhengyuan converted those books into silver at his first thought when he heard that there were more than 2 books.

The books they read in the study in their hometown county before, a hand-copied book cost at least three or four hundred Wen, which is the cheapest.

If you buy the books that the academy needs, you will get at least one tael of silver.

"Indeed, with those books, you can save a lot of money. Aren't you going to the academy? You can copy any books you need from my house. My house is not far from Duke Lu's mansion. You are welcome to visit us anytime." Yan Yan I only heard it once, and Gu Zhen said how many children in their family were going to school, so I remembered it.

However, it doesn't look like their family can't afford books. Maybe someone likes to copy books like him.

"Then thank you, Brother Yan. I don't have time to copy these days. I have to go to school in the tenth day of the junior high school. I don't have enough time to copy a book in the remaining day, but I will ask Brother Yan to borrow it when I have time. Thank you. " Tao Zhengxing is the one who wants to copy books, but seeing that the time for school is coming up, for the rest of the day, they think about helping the family as much as they can, and then go to school for ten days before taking a holiday , All the things in the family have to be done by father and mother themselves. If there are too many things, parents will work hard.

"Is it the tenth day of the new year? If it's the tenth day of the new year, it's Pingshan Academy. Are all the younger brothers studying there? How about the admissions exam results?" Pingshan Academy is the only place in the entire capital that can start school on the tenth day of the new year.

In addition to the Guozijian, people like the Tao family should not be able to go to the Guozijian, and there is only Pingshan Academy.

"Brother, you'd better not ask about the result, I'm afraid you will be scared to death if you say it." Gu Zhen smiled and moved closer to his elder brother, forgetting the look that his elder brother had just stared at him.

"You stinky kid, what do you think you can get me now?" Yan Yan stretched out his hand and pinched his little fat face, and said viciously.

"Oh, big brother, that's my meat, it hurts, okay? If you really say it, I'm afraid it will scare you." Gu Zhen pretended to scream, and the children next to him all laughed together. .

"Come on, sister, come and talk to big brother, don't listen to that kid's nonsense, big brother, now that you are a wife, you can't be scared." Yan Yan still pinched his cousin's face with one hand and turned around. When I turned my head, I talked to the little girl with a smile, as if nothing happened.

Seeing Gu Zhen's miserable appearance, Tao Yunyun burst out laughing: "Brother Yan, let him go, otherwise what will happen if he pinches his face and prevents him from marrying a wife?"

Now even Tao Yihai, who had been tense and not smiling, couldn't help it anymore, his little girl has such a bad mouth.

"That's right, I don't look very good-looking in the first place, but if it turns into a big face, it will be even uglier." Yan Yan was in a good mood and hurt Gu Zhen together with the little girl.

"Laugh, don't you think we look alike? If I'm ugly, then you won't be able to marry a wife." Gu Zhen was almost laughed angrily by the two brothers and sisters.

They look so much alike, anyone with a discerning eye can tell they are a family, if he is ugly, then his elder brother is now 23, let alone marry a wife, he is old and ugly.

After they had finished their meal and played around for a while, it was already afternoon, and the two of them only brought a driver with them, so Tao Yihai didn't bother, they were afraid that it would be too late when they went back after dinner, The road is not easy to walk.

Yan Yan happily returned home with a box of books, and the carriage left Taojia Village. After entering the official road, Yan Yan immediately pinched Gu Zhen: "Stinky boy, tell me the truth, what is going on? I remember you only My father is an uncle, but there is another one who looks so similar to my father, if you say that Uncle Tao has nothing to do with my father, then I don't believe it."

"Brother, go back and ask your uncle, I really don't know the details." Gu Zhen wanted to know if his uncle knew about this matter?
"My dad, what do I know about him?" Yan Yan stared at Gu Zhen in disbelief.

"Then I don't know, why don't you go back and ask first?" Gu Zhen planned to fight this hurdle to the end.

"Boy, if my father doesn't know he's coming back, I'll beat you up." Yan Yan raised his skinny fist threateningly, shaking it in front of Gu Zhen.

"Yeah, go ask, I'll wait for you at home, it's not like you don't know which courtyard I live in." Gu Zhen coaxed his brother, thinking about when to start packing up and running.

Don't look at him as a gentleman, he only knows how to copy books all day long, so he beats people harder than his uncle.

Oops, this stinky little sister will really give him problems, so he has only returned to the capital for a few days, and he has to run away again.

When Yan Yan got home, he immediately let the family servants carry his books back to his room, and then hurried to his father's study.

Father should be in the study at this time.

"My lord, you're back, do you want to serve a meal?" Yan Yan just stepped into his father's yard when he met the butler.

"Wait for a while, I will eat with my father later." Yan Yan waved his hand, he wanted to understand the matter now, otherwise he would not be able to eat this meal.

"Ok."

Yan Yan came to the door of the study and knocked lightly: "Father, do you have time now?"

"Come in! What's the matter?" Of course Yan Junrui heard it. The son's tone was a little irritable, and he was taken aback for a moment.

This kid has always been calm and calm, he does things slowly and calmly, what's going on today?

"Father, I discovered something extraordinary." After Yan Yan came in, he went straight to the point. This is his father's study, and there are people guarding the outermost yard. Father usually does not like people working too close to his study. , so there are only their father and son here.

"What's making you frizzy? Sit down and talk!" Yan Junrui raised his chin to the chair opposite him and told his son to sit down.

He really wanted to know what made his son feel this way.
