Not to mention snackers like Gu Lou and Bisong, even Qinzhi and Yazhi were satisfied and happy.
The next day, Qiao Lian and Gu Cheng went to the streets to buy things they needed for school.
"Mom, there really is nothing to buy." Gu Cheng was very helpless, "I have pen, ink, paper and inkstone. The Clothing Institute will distribute them, so just keep everything as usual."
"How can that be done? My son has been admitted to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is different from before. The things he uses are naturally better." Qiao stopped in front of a Four Treasures Store, went in and touched one that looked good. Pen, "How much?"
The waiter glanced at their clothes and said calmly, "Twenty taels."
Just such a brush, twenty taels?
Qiao almost failed to hold the twenty taels of silver.
Gu Cheng on the side pursed his lips. He had expected this scene for a long time. Things in the capital were so cheap. In addition, the shops Qiao Lian came to looked high-end, so it was not surprising that the prices were high.
"This" Qiao Lianlian couldn't accept it in her heart, but she thought the deal was good, so she tried, "Can it be cheaper?"
The waiter said in a nonchalant manner, "Everything in our store is clearly marked with price, and we don't show any mercy. If you don't mind, you can go to East Street, where you can buy a set of Four Treasures of the Study for only five taels of silver."
The capital is divided into East Street and West Street. East Street is where ordinary people buy things, and the prices are roughly equivalent to those in Anyang County.
West Street is here, the price is a bit expensive, and things may be valuable or not, so you need to distinguish yourself.
Frankly speaking, this writing brush is really good. The body of the writing brush is smooth and the tip of the writing brush is sharp. It is much better than the ones that cost 20 taels of silver each.
But it¡¯s not worth twenty taels.
Qiao Lianlian still couldn't accept it in her heart. She put down her brush and dragged Gu Cheng out of the store.
The waiter looked at their backs, raised his nostrils, snorted, and put away his brushes.
"Mom, the things on West Street are expensive, but no matter how expensive the pen is, it's not as important as having a hand that can write." Gu Cheng said seriously, "Let's go, the brush that mom bought before is very good, I like it very much."
Qiao pursed her lips repeatedly, unwilling to speak.
She felt a little unhappy that she could not buy the best pen for her son.
What a coincidence, Yu Yaner appeared jumping again.
"You are also here to buy the Four Treasures of the Study?" She stared at Gu Cheng with a smile, "The things in this store are a bit cheap. Do you want me to introduce you to a good shop with moderate prices and good products."
Qiao Lianlian¡¯s heart became even more blocked.
Fortunately, the eldest son was considerate and said, "No need, what I have on hand is fine."
Yu Yan'er's smile was a little droopy, "How come you are always so repulsive to people thousands of miles away? Meeting by chance is fate, can't we just be friends?"
Gu Cheng didn't even look at her, "No need."
Those three cold words knocked all Yu Yaner's words back into her stomach.
She stamped her feet again, turned and left.
Gu Cheng glanced at Qiao Lianlian.
The stepmother breathed a sigh of relief, her expression softened a lot, and the big stone in her heart seemed to have fallen away.
"Let's go, we can't afford it here, let's go somewhere else." She put her arms around her eldest son's shoulders, and the two of them walked out together.
Before he could take two steps, a writing brush fell from the front.
Qiao took a closer look and saw that it was the one the mother and son were looking at just now. Why did he end up here? Could it be that he was thrown out?
She bent down to pick it up, but Gu Cheng held her tightly.
Immediately afterwards, a young man in Chinese clothes walked out, "What, you want to pick up my brush and keep it for yourself?"
"It's not impossible. As long as you are willing to wipe the dust off my feet, I will give this brush to you. What do you think?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
