I was a young master in ancient times

Chapter 77 The Battalion Commander in White

"Uncle Liugui." Sun Xiaohui waved enthusiastically, "What a coincidence, Uncle Liugui, are you coming to the market today?"

Sun Xiaohui's younger sister, Sun Xiaomei, also hurriedly waved.Seeing the bullock cart next to Sun Liugui, he widened his eyes and asked enviously, "Where did you get the bullock cart?" Cows are big animals, and there is only one family in the village that has cows.

Sun Liugui narrowed his eyes and carefully identified the two granddaughters of Sun Chuanyu's family. He smiled and said, "I borrowed it from Battalion Commander An."

"Your sister-in-law Axia wants to eat red beans. I'll come to the city to buy some red beans."

"Captain An is so talkative, how can he lend a cow?" The two little girls were very surprised.I heard from my grandparents that Battalion Commander An is a good man.I didn't expect it to be so good.

Sun Liugui said good things, "Captain An is the best talking officer."

"Xiaohui hasn't gone out for a while, right?"

"Yes." Xiaohui nodded, and Xiaomei explained, "Miss Xiaohui had chickenpox before, and grandma didn't allow her to go out."

"Everything is fine now." Xiaohui added hastily, "Grandma is only going out when everything is fine."

"It's fine when you're done. Come to my house to talk to your sister-in-law Axia when you have time."

Xiaomei smiled and asked, "When will Axia's sister-in-law give birth to a younger brother?"

"There are still three months." Ah Xia's stomach is the first grandchild of his family.When it comes to this, Sun Liugui is very happy from the bottom of his heart.

He was about to say a few more words to Xiaomei, but the figure entering the bookstore in front of him caught him off guard, and he muttered involuntarily, "Captain An?"

"Where?" Sun Xiaohui was overjoyed, she didn't expect that she and Battalion Commander An were so destined.She is going to see the battalion commander.

Sun Liugui replied, "I just went into the bookstore."

"Uncle Liugui, are you reading right?" Xiaomei asked suspiciously.Everyone in the village knew that Uncle Liugui was a disgrace.

Sun Liugui replied confidently, "It's not wrong, it's not wrong. I'm looking at the figure."

"I have an impression of the clothes Commander An is wearing. Only Commander An can wear white clothes so well." Sun Liugui also praised Ankang casually.

When he said that, Xiaomei couldn't say anything.Seeing Xiaohui's shy look, she didn't know what this sister was thinking, and she suddenly became a little unhappy.

"Uncle Liugui, come help load and unload the cart." Daquan from the same village stood beside the bullock cart and shouted.When he came out this time, he rubbed Uncle Liu Gui's bullock cart and helped to bring some things home.

"I'm going to help Datong load the car. How are you going back later?"

Xiaomei replied, "We came here with the elder brother. The elder brother is going to talk to people. Let's wait for him to go back together."

After the people left, Xiaomei pouted her lips and complained to Xiaohui, "Sister, don't listen to grandma. I think what grandpa said is right. Battalion Commander An is the battalion commander. How can we stand tall? "

"Xiaomei, what are you talking about?" Xiaohui hurriedly interrupted her sister, "I don't think so."

"It's good that you don't think so." Xiaomei felt relieved.

Xiaohui suggested, "I often hear grandpa and grandma talk about the goodness of Battalion Commander An. Now we have the opportunity. Let's go to the bookstore and see what he looks like?"

The two little sisters whispered and encouraged each other, and walked into the bookstore.

Their patched attire was out of step with the rest of the bookstore.Xiaomei hugged Xiaohui's shoulders uncomfortably, and exclaimed in a low voice, "So the bookstore looks like this!"

The waiter greeted them warmly, and did not despise Xiaomei and Xiaohui because of their clothes. "Miss, what kind of books are you looking for?"

After being born, it was the first time someone called Miss, and the two little sisters blushed immediately.Xiaomei wanted to explain to Xiaoer Dian that she was not a lady, so Xiaohui gently pinched her hand.

Xiaohui took courage and tried to keep her voice steady, "Let's see for ourselves first."

"Okay." The shop waiter replied, turned and left.

"Huh." Xiaomei let out a long breath, patted her chest, and said with bright eyes, "Miss Xiaohui, you are really amazing. I was almost too scared to speak just now."

"I'm scared too. I just pretended."

The two little sisters whispered to each other. Such a novel experience made the two sisters almost forget the purpose of coming to the bookstore.Hearing the people around them discussing in low voices made it even more obvious that they had come to the wrong place.

Xiaohui bit her lip, bit her bullet, and gently opened a book.There were densely packed black characters, none of which she was familiar with.

"This is a new book in our store. It's called a magazine. It has everything on it. It teaches children's enlightenment, articles written by literati, new government orders from various places, new things happening in various places, and various serialized novels. .” The waiter stood in front of a special bookcase, selling new books in the store.

"Anyone who holds a magazine can come to the school set up by our store to attend free lectures in the future."

The shop waiter's words opened up everyone's chatterbox, and everyone rushed to ask.

"The school is free? Did I hear correctly?"

"Where is the school?"

"Does the school want a teacher?"

Most of the people who come here to buy books are from good families, and there are a few students who need to save money to be willing to buy books.

"This book is sold well in the south. You don't mind looking through it first." The shop clerk strongly recommended, "Now the streets and alleys in the south are reading magazines and learning to write."

A middle-aged man who was not very wealthy at first glance asked, "How much does such a good book cost?"

The waiter gritted his big white teeth, stretched out five fingers, and said, "Tongs don't lie, five hundred coins a copy."

"Five hundred Wen? That's not cheap." The middle-aged man said hesitantly.

"Five hundred Wen can go to school for free. And," the waiter in the shop dragged his voice out, "you can go to school with a magazine in your hand. A magazine can let a whole family of children go to class. It's a good deal." "Every issue I bought a copy of both so my nephew can go to school."

When Xiao Er said this, some people began to make calculations in their hearts.Xiaohui also moved her mind. She has a younger brother in her family, and her second uncle's family also has a younger brother.

But five hundred Wen is not a small amount of money, she has to go back and discuss it with her family.Xiaomei tugged on her sister's sleeve, and asked in a low voice with sparkling eyes, "Can we read the black and white characters in the book after buying a magazine?"

The waiter in the shop added more fire, "Girl dolls can also come to our school."

Xiaomei's eyes widened in surprise, she shook Xiaohui vigorously, and spoke louder, "Sister, we can go to school too! Brothers finish their studies, let's go too!"

Xiaohui was also a little excited, she must ask grandma to buy a copy of this book.

After talking with the shopkeeper, as soon as Xu Li entered the lobby of the bookstore, he heard the whole bookstore discussing magazines, and he was secretly delighted.

He opened the folding fan in his hand with a "snap" and shook it lightly to fan himself. Xu Li raised his voice and said, "I will buy fifty magazines! The soldiers in our northern Xinjiang military camp will use this book to learn to read and write." .”

The soldiers in the northern Xinjiang military camp also use this book to learn characters?Rich people who didn't pay much attention to it before, immediately paid attention to it in their hearts.Military men use this book to read and write, so they also buy it and read it at home?This is officially certified!

Seeing this man wearing white clothes and talking about the Northern Xinjiang military camp, Xiaohui thought, this must be the battalion commander Liugui mentioned.

The author has something to say:

I'm coming, I'm coming.

【small theater】

Ankang: Uncle Liugui, please identify who you are, not all the people in white clothes are battalion commanders.

Sun Liugui was confused..."I'm face blind!!!"

I wish you all a happy life!

Has anyone noticed that I wrote Xu Li as Chen Xuan? o(╯□╰)o catch insects
