Please recommend and collect, dear, the recommendation in your hands is the greatest support for me, don't be stingy.

================================================== ======
Only then did the three of them wake up from their trance, and they were really sure that they ate the buns themselves, so Sanya took one and ate it most unceremoniously.

"Slow down, no one will fight you," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Sanya took a bite, closed her eyes happily, and said in her mouth, "I have buns to eat, I have buns to eat"

Erya and Xiaojun also ate one each, and then stopped moving.

Yi Xue was surprised, and asked curiously, "Why don't you eat?"

Xiaojun sniffled, "Sister, leave one for Mom."

Erya also nodded, and after Sanya heard it, she immediately put down the bun in her hand and looked at Yi Xue pitifully.

Yi Xue looked at the three with pity, put the buns in front of the three, and then said to Xiao Er, "Pack ten buns and take them away."

Hearing that Yi Xue wanted steamed buns again, Erya and the three of them confirmed that the elder sister brought them to mother, so they excitedly ate them.

Yi Xue hadn't eaten steamed stuffed buns for a long time, and her mouth was full of greasy food, and her stomach was finally liberated.

After eating the buns, Yi Xue paid the bill, and Xiaojun saw that his elder sister took out a tael of silver to pay the bill. He believed that his family was rich, and he felt a lot more relaxed.

Then Yi Xue brought the three of them to the store to pull a few bolts of cloth, and didn't choose expensive ones, it was just fine, she didn't want to scare her mother, and she didn't want to be judged by others.

In the end, Yi Xue bought a knife of paper and a pen, and he was still counting on these things to sell for money.Summer will be over soon, and it is impossible to sell sweet potatoes, so we have to think of other ways.

After thinking for a while, Yi Xue looked at Xiaojun, "Xiaojun, let's go buy books, do you know where there is a bookstore?"

As soon as he heard that he was going to buy a book, Xiaojun's eyes lit up immediately, and he pointed not far away, "Sister, just turn a corner and there is a relatively large bookstore in the town."

Seeing Xiaojun being so active, Yi Xue is very satisfied, which shows that Xiaojun is also very eager to study, and the family needs a scholar to be the pillar of support.

Under Xiaojun's guidance, Yi Xue really saw a bookstore with a very elegant appearance, Ziyuxuan.Just looking at the name, it is very elegant.

Walking in, the three rows of bookshelves are full, and there are quite a few people who look like scholars looking through them.

Yi Xue didn't even look at it, and went straight to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was holding a book and reading it, frowning slightly, as if she had encountered a difficulty.

"The shopkeeper", Yi Xueben didn't want to interrupt, but had to interrupt.

The shopkeeper put down his hand, raised his head and smiled, "Miss buy a book?"

Yi Xue nodded, "Can the shopkeeper introduce me to some books suitable for children who are just studying, and poetry anthologies?"

The shopkeeper looked at Yi Xue and the three and a half older children behind him, and was a little surprised. He couldn't afford to buy books even in terms of clothes.But he doesn't care, as long as he pays, why should he care.

"Yes." The shopkeeper immediately took out a few books, and then threw them to Yi Xue, "This is a children's book, this is a book of poems edited by me, and it contains [-] poems."

Yi Xue nodded, then turned to look at Xiaojun, "Do you want to buy anything?"

Xiaojun's face was happy at first, but then became gloomy, "Forget it, sister, this is enough."

Yixue didn't force it, in fact, as long as she knew these traditional characters, with her mother's experience as a mandarin teacher in her previous life, teaching Xiaojun and her younger sisters would not be a problem. When she had money, she would buy some books.

"Shopkeeper, how much is it?" Yi Xue asked.

"A total of 12 taels," said the shopkeeper.

12 taels?Yi Xue was taken aback. She really didn't realize the price of the book, and she suddenly felt relieved when she thought about it. In this place similar to ancient China, printing has not been popularized yet, so the price naturally remains high.

"Okay, boss, keep it." Yi Xue handed over the money to the shopkeeper.

After the shopkeeper accepted it, he picked up the book again, and read softly, "Qingfeng is drunk, and the moon is a couple, how should I answer the next sentence?"
