Chapter 454 Buying Pencils and Ink (1/2)



But compared with the wealthy families in the county, their family was considered wealthy in the town, but it was not obvious in the county. How could they compete with the people in the county? So the servants in his house waited in line for several days but still couldn't buy anything.

Fortunately, Fumanlou added another ten roast ducks, and now sells one hundred every day, so his servants can also buy roast duck today.

Thinking of the delicious roast duck, he wanted to go home quickly to enjoy it, but he felt a little conflicted when he saw his three classmates.

Minghao said that Sister Yue asked them to stay in the academy and not go out, so naturally they had to stay in the hospital. But he didn't want to enjoy the roast duck alone and wanted to share it with his classmates. He couldn't make up his mind for a while.

However, what Chen Bao didn't know was that Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan had already eaten roast duck, which was made by their sister and sent by their father.

Originally, Dad sent them two roast ducks and said that they could share them with their classmates, but after they got the roast ducks, they didn't even think about sharing them with others.

No matter Mingyu, Minghao or Mingxuan, when they heard that the roast duck was made by their sister, they were all so greedy that they took it and started eating without hesitation.

The key point is that the roast duck tasted so good that when they reacted, there was only a pile of bones left on the ground.

Thinking about the fact that they had a good relationship with Chen Bao during this period and that Chen Bao often brought food from home for them, they thought it was natural for them to share the roast duck with Chen Bao.

But the three of them couldn't help themselves and ate up the two big roast ducks completely. They couldn't let Chen Bao eat the bones.

After finishing their roast duck, the three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. They also knew that Chen Bao must not know about this, otherwise if Chen Bao knew that they were eating alone, their friendship might be ruined at any time.

Therefore, as the three of them deliberately concealed the matter of the roast duck, Chen Bao didn't hear a single word about it and had no idea that he had missed the roast duck made by his sister Yue.

After learning that his family bought roast duck from the county, I wanted to eat it with Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan, but it turned out that they had already eaten the roast duck.

Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan were indeed feeling guilty about the roast duck. When Chen Bao invited them to his house to eat roast duck again, they refused on the grounds that they had to listen to their sister.

Chen Bao knew that it was useless to say anything more, and he didn't want to go against Sister Yue's words, so he took the servant home.

After Chen Baoqian, Minghao looked at his two brothers and said tentatively, "Big brother, second brother, my pens and ink are almost used up. Let's go to the bookstore to buy some."

When Mingyu and Mingxuan heard this, they turned and looked at Minghao intently. After a while, Mingxuan said, "My ink is almost gone, so you can buy some too."

Mingyu followed suit, “Me too.”

The three of them exchanged glances and walked towards the entrance of the academy tacitly.

They were not lying. Their pens and ink were indeed running out and they needed to go to the bookstore to buy some more, otherwise they would have trouble writing in a couple of days.

But they only need to buy pens and ink, they don't need to buy paper.

Because some time ago, a woman brought a little girl to the academy to deliver paper to them.

At first they didn't know each other, so they rejected each other directly.

But when the other party revealed his identity, they realized that he was their sister's subordinate, and then they took the paper.

But when they got the paper, they discovered before they even started using it that it was very different from the paper they usually used.

The paper that their older sister bought for them in the store was always the most expensive, saying that it was for practicing calligraphy, and that it would make writing smoother and easier to use.
