Chapter 999: Can't rely on them
"You memorized it?"
Shopkeeper Wang looked at Su Ruanruan with amusement, "It will probably take a few years. But it doesn't matter. This book is useless to me. You can read it first!"
Shopkeeper Wang's tone was still gentle when he said this, but Su Ruanruan clearly felt that Shopkeeper Wang was trying to hold back his laughter.
This is understandable, since I am just a five-year-old farm girl!
I guess in Shopkeeper Wang's mind, he doesn't even know the characters! Su Ruanruan was thinking about it when she heard Shopkeeper Wang say, "Ruanbao, can you read?"
Su Ruanruan thought to herself, "As expected," and then replied with a smile, "I know him. I learned the Thousand Character Classic from the village chief, and I am also learning the Four Books from Jinbao."
This time, Shopkeeper Wang was really surprised.
"You've also studied the Four Books? Then you can understand this book."
Su Ruanruan also understood what Manager Wang meant.
The books at that time were not written in vernacular Chinese, and each word could have many meanings.
The same word may have different meanings in different sentences.
Books like pharmacology are even more obscure and difficult to understand.
If you don't have a certain foundation, let alone memorizing it, it will be a problem whether you can read it through.
Shopkeeper Wang wanted to test Su Ruanruan to see if she was exaggerating.
However, after the exam, Shopkeeper Wang discovered that Su Runrun was truly pragmatic.
While being shocked by Su Runrun's cleverness, Shopkeeper Wang also took the matter of becoming Su's disciple even more seriously.
But he still secretly decided to wait for a few days, and when he came back, he would ask Su Ruanruan how she was reading the book.
If Su Ruanruan can understand a few sentences without anyone teaching her, it means she is really talented. We must hurry up and find a good master for her.
But if Su Ruanruan didn't understand, or found it difficult to give up, then he wouldn't have to worry too much.
Su Runrun had no idea that Shopkeeper Wang was thinking so much. There was nothing else for her to do here, so she took the book and went back to the house.
After Shopkeeper Wang left, Su Cangshan came back with a smile on his face.
Today's strawberries and watermelons were sold for eleven taels of silver.
If this had happened in the past, it would have been something that we would never have dared to think about.
Now I can save some money so that I don’t have to worry about the four boys in my family going to school.
Not only do you not have to worry about this year, but next year's tuition fees are already paid.
Su Runrun looked at Su Cangshan with a smile on her face, but she didn't take it to heart.
Studying will only cost more and more money.
Especially since there are four students at home.
Pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and various books.
Add to that the family's food and drink, which one doesn't cost money? The only thing Su Runruan is thankful for now is that the Su family's house is really nice.
The blue bricks and gray tiles are a bit darker in color, but they are sturdy.
The Su family did have savings originally, but they spent all their savings on renovating their house a few years ago, which made things difficult for them.
In Su Dahao's words, his family has a house and land, so even if they don't have money, they can still make ends meet by gritting their teeth.
But if there is something wrong with the house, then there is really no way to survive.
So when the house needs to be repaired, Su Dahao will not be careless at all.
Although the Su family's house is a bit old due to its age, it is definitely sturdy.
Now the only thing Su Runrun has to consider is making money.
Watermelons and strawberries are in season, and it is impossible to rely on them all the time.
