The Meng family's business was mostly located on West Street and South Street, with rice shops, cloth shops, and all kinds of groceries. It was one of the largest shops in Nanshan County.
Just as Chen Heng walked out of the alley, Meng Xuanlang called out in a cheerful voice, "Sister-in-law."
Turning around, I found that behind me was Wanjia Bookstore, which was also the bookstore run by Xie Jianyi.
Meng Xuanlang and Xie Jianye, the former greeted him with a smile, while the latter looked impatient.
"Ajian, young master, are you buying books here?" Buying books at this time? Chen Heng walked into the bookstore and saw the shopkeeper Ge, and hurriedly bowed.
Shopkeeper Ge took out a stack of books and placed them on the table. There were already more than a dozen thick books on the table. "Young Master, these are the books Xie Jian has bought. Do you want to buy them all?"
Meng Xuanlang flipped through the books and said, "I've read all of these books, but they don't contain any content about the history of the Southern Dynasties."
"Great answer?" Shopkeeper Ge suddenly realized, "So that's what the young master wants. Please follow me."
The three of them followed Shopkeeper Ge to the last row of bookcases.
"It's those few pieces up there. I'll take them down for you, young master." Shopkeeper Ge said as he brought a ladder.
Shen Heng was amazed when she saw the three-page book which was about 20 centimeters thick.
Meng Xuanlang flipped through each of the books and looked at Xie Jian in disbelief: "Have you finished reading these three books?"
Xie Jian pointed to a whole row of books and said, "I've finished reading all of these."
Listening to Xie Jian's words, Shopkeeper Ge smiled silently. There's more than just this row of books. This kid reads all kinds of books, and his memory is amazing. When Xie Jian first asked if he wanted a bookworm, he immediately felt that this kid would have great potential in the future, so he accepted him. Sure enough, his vision was still good.
That row of books looked incredibly thick. If one were to finish reading them, the amount of knowledge they contained would be astonishing. Chen Heng would then understand why Xie Jian's eyes were always deeper than others. It was because he had knowledge hidden in his head.
Books are other people's lives.
Some people read books. Reading is a kind of pleasure. In this pleasure, they satisfy their fantasy of being respected, loved and liked by others. They hope that they can become like the character and have the world revolve around her. This can eliminate the fatigue of the day and gain a moment of comfort.
For example, she, cough cough ~
Some people, when reading books, feel as if they have experienced the ups and downs of the characters' lives, and take the wisdom of the characters in the books for their own use. At the same time, they regard the tragic fate of the characters in the books as lessons. Books become a shortcut for them to increase their wisdom.
Xie Jian should belong to the latter.
"Starting today, I will also finish reading them." Meng Xuanlang made a great vow. Whenever the officials in the yamen discussed something, Uncle Ji An would always let Xie Jian participate. He was not convinced and insisted on going a few times. He found that Xie Jian could always quote from classics when speaking, while he could not say anything.
Xie Jian nodded: "Whatever."
Chen Heng flipped over the History of the Daying and Southern Dynasties on the table. Daying and Southern Dynasties? She had heard Lord Lu mention it last time. Why didn't she know about this dynasty in her history? This dynasty lasted for three hundred years, so long, there was no way she didn't know about it.
"Do you like reading it?" Xie Jian asked when he saw Ah Heng flipping through the History of Chaonan.
"Ajian, what dynasty was before the Daying Southern Dynasty?" Chen Heng asked, not afraid of doubting anything, because her mind was really empty.
"Song."
Chen Heng breathed a sigh of relief. This was indeed true.
Meng Xuanlang was heard saying, "The Song Dynasty was replaced by the Daying Dynasty after only nineteen years."
