Mrs. Liu stood at the door of the study for a long time, watching the two children lying on the ground and starting to look for books to read, but there are very few books that children of this age can read, especially if the books are not full of sentences. Tuck it back and continue flipping through one by one.
Fortunately, the two children cherish books very much. Knowing that books are rare, they always handle them with care.
Liu stood and looked at it for a while, then turned and left. She was also thinking about Man Bao's words, her mood fluctuated.
The two children flipped through for a while, and found that there were no books they could understand. They were a little angry for a while, and Man Bao stopped flipping through the books. There is bamboo and beautiful cloth, so I asked Bai Shanbao curiously.
Bai Shanbao glanced at it and said: "Those are bamboo slips and brocade silk. In the past, there was no paper, or the paper was not good, so I used bamboo slips and brocade silk to write. Grandma said that these are left by the ancestors, and they are precious."
Man Bao asked curiously, "Can I see it?"
In fact, Bai Shanbao didn't read it either, because his grandmother didn't allow him to rummage around, so he deliberately put these two things in a high place.
He rolled his eyes, "Sure, you are my friend."
The two little friends dragged the chair over, Man Bao helped him to hold the chair, Bai Shanbao climbed up and stretched out his hand to reach it, but found that it was still out of reach.
The two children looked at each other, turned around the room looking for something, and finally looked at the books at the bottom of the bookshelf.
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao carried the books over and piled them together one by one. Then Bai Shanbao took off his shoes and socks, climbed onto the chair first, then stepped on the books, and reached for the bamboo slips on it bit by bit with his toes.
The bamboo slip was very heavy, Bai Shanbao almost fell off, Man Bao supported his waist with his toes, he pulled out the bamboo slip after shaking it, held it in his arms and stuffed it to Man Bao.
Man Bao put it on the ground, and moved the chair with him, reaching Jin Ling on the other side.
The brocade silk was also rolled one by one, but it was much lighter. Bai Shanbao quickly got it, and the two of them opened the bamboo slips first, and unfolded them to read the words on them.
The two found that they didn't know any of the words on it.
The two stared at each other and touched the scratches on it. Man Bao pointed to a word in surprise and said, "It looks like a person!"
"Huh," Shanbao quickly found the pattern, pointed to a word and said, "It's like fire..."
The three of them found the fun, and felt that it was more interesting than reading a book, and excitedly searched for the pictographic meaning of the characters.
When the voices of Datou and the servants came from outside, they realized that the time had passed and it was almost dark.
But Jin Ling on the side hasn't looked at it yet.
The two children felt guilty, Bai Shanbao grabbed the brocade silk and climbed onto the chair, and put it on the chair. When he wanted to put the bamboo slips in this way, he found it was impossible.
Because this thing is too heavy, it is easy to take it down, but it is not easy to put it up.
The servant and the big head have already urged outside, the study room is not for them to enter, so they can only call two people outside.
Man Bao quickly responded, tugged at Shan Bao, and said in a low voice, "Hiding here."
Bai Shanbao and Man Bao put the books back on the bookshelf one by one, and then hid the bamboo slips behind the books, so they couldn't be seen at first glance.
After doing bad things, the two children dragged the chair back, looked at each other, couldn't help covering their mouths, and ran to open the door.
In the eyes of the servants and the big boss, this cheerful appearance meant that they had a good time reading the book.
Seeing this, the big head and the servants also became happy.
Datou was the happiest, because he ate a lot of snacks this afternoon and saw all kinds of beautiful flowers in the garden.
Bai Shanbao and his servants sent the aunt and nephew out together, and Bai Shanbao held Man Bao's little hand and said, "You will continue to come to my house tomorrow."
Man Bao said there was no problem, and told him, "Think about it when you have time, and ask Mr. if you don't understand, Mr. knows a lot."
Shanbao nodded.
Then everyone went back to their respective homes, each looking for their respective mothers.
Back at Zhou's house, Xiaoqian was just getting ready for dinner. The atmosphere in Zhou's house was particularly warm, and everyone's faces were very happy.
When Man Bao saw it, he carried the bookcase into the house and put it down, and then followed her mother in and out like a rabbit tail, "Mother, is there a happy event in our family?"
Mrs. Qian nodded her little nose and said: "You are clever, the privet berries have been scalded for a day, and they are already looking good, your elder brother and the others found several privet berries in the forest, and they are not very familiar with them yet. I plan to collect these privet seeds after they are published."
Mrs. Qian estimated the amount by herself, and felt that there should be a certain amount of income for this winter. It just so happened that the eldest and second child's family should also change their quilts, and Man Bao also had to make warmer clothes for school.
Everyone in the family is making money, and even Ertou and the others went to pull a lot of centella asiatica and came back to dry in the sun today. Zhou Lang was a little depressed.
Man Bao happened to be squatting next to him, and comforted him when he saw it, "Don't worry, fourth brother, you can make a lot of money when your field produces next year."
Zhou Zhoulang felt hopeless.
Qian didn't have so much time to appease her son's little heart, she had a lot of things to do.
Knowing that privet seeds can be sold, and figured out how to dry privet seeds, she has decided to use privet seeds as a major source of family income in the future.
So he told his second son, "When you are free these few days, you can weave a row of shelves, and then weave a few larger dustpans, round ones, which can just fit on the shelves, and will be used to dry privet seeds in the future. "
Tuesday Lang said no problem.
After explaining this, she said to the boss and the second child: "You should walk more frequently these two days, not only to keep an eye on the privets in the mountains, but also to look around, if there are any, write down the location."
Man Bao interjected: "Big brother, third brother, if you see a plant that we don't have outside, you can pull it back and give it to me."
Zhou Dalang responded with a smile, but the flowers and plants in the mountains are all the same to them, there is really no difference.
And they couldn't understand why my sister liked to pull those flowers and plants so much, so they just agreed, but they didn't know whether to do it or not.
Man Bao didn't know that he was being perfunctory, and happily continued to talk to the depressed fourth brother, which annoyed Zhou Zhoulang very much.
After Mrs. Qian finished explaining the main family matters, she called the big head here to ask about her visit to Bai's house.
Knowing that he had eaten snacks all afternoon, Qian glanced at him and sighed, "If your sister-in-law still wants to go to Bai's house to play in the future, you can just send her to the door and wait until the family wants to eat dinner before going." catch."
The big head complied regretfully, not daring not to listen to his grandmother.
Mrs. Qian turned around and ordered Mrs. Qian to pack some cabbage and some eggs for Datou tomorrow, and ask Datou to take him and Manbao to Bai's house tomorrow as a gift in return.
Xiaoqian should go down.
After arranging everything properly, Mrs. Qian leaned back on the chair, called her little daughter to her, and asked her with a smile, "What did you learn from your husband today?"
