Chapter 192 She is the Princess of Jiahe County
When mentioning Su Gong, Lin Zhiyi clearly felt that Li Wenjing's expression darkened.
She knew that Li Wenjing was probably thinking of Master Zhang again.
Both Taifu were his mentors, but he did not mention Taifu Zhang at all, but only mentioned Su Gong.
She sighed. Zhang Wanqing, the daughter of Master Zhang, had always been a thorn in their side.
It seems that she wants to talk to Li Wenjing.
Li Wenjing said calmly: "Never!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
It is even more certain that Li Wenjing is bragging.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhiyuan felt proud and felt that he still had a chance.
No, he had to have a good talk with Miss Lin another day to prevent her from being deceived.
"Mr. Zhao, I have to go and entertain customers. If you need to buy any books, you can come to me and I will give you a discount."
"Miss Lin works here?" Zhao Zhiyuan asked.
After hearing Lin Zhiyi say this, Zhao Zhiyuan finally realized what Lin Zhiyi meant when he said that he knew the boss of Lin Wenge.
Lin Zhiyi nodded, "Yes."
It turns out that she works in this shop.
This made Zhao Zhiyuan feel even more distressed. Although he had a respectable position in Lin Wenge, he was just a servant after all, being ordered around by others.
She didn't have to do this.
If she married him, even though he was not rich, at least she would not have to show up in public and would just have to stay at home and serve her husband and parents-in-law.
But in front of so many classmates, he couldn't say much, so he just agreed: "Okay, thank you Miss Lin."
Lin Zhiyi pulled Li Wenjing aside and said, "Are you tired? If you are, go inside and rest."
She was afraid that Li Wenjing was sad because of what happened just now.
"Do you think I'm made of clay?" Li Wenjing said unhappily.
He's not that fragile yet.
"Oh well."
At this time, a woman dressed as a maid came over and went straight into the shop without queuing.
Lin Xiuyan asked her to queue up first to get the discount, but the woman waved her hand, indicating that she wanted to go inside to buy books.
Lin Zhi noticed another customer coming and hurried over. "Miss, what book do you want to buy? I'll help you find it."
"I heard your shop has a treasured piece called 'The Story of the Stone'. Where is it kept?"
Lin Zhiyi paused. This was the first person to come and ask about this book.
"Come with me, girl."
Lin Zhiyi took her to the bookshelf, took out a copy of "A Dream of Red Mansions" from the most conspicuous place, and handed it to the woman.
"How much is it? Let's pay."
Lin Zhiyi didn't expect her to be so straightforward. "Miss, don't you want to open it and take a look?"
"No, my wife asked me to buy it."
It turned out to be a lady.
"You are the first customer of this book today. The original price is 300 wen, but with the discount, it only costs 100 wen."
The maid was a little bit incredulous when she heard that. She had heard that Lin Wenge's treasure must be very expensive, but she didn't expect that it could be bought for only a hundred coins.
If this money were in another study, it would probably not be enough to buy paper.
It seems that the owner of this shop is not really doing this for money, but for the welfare of scholars all over the world.
The maid happily took out a hundred coins and gave them to Lin Zhiyi before leaving.
Lin Zhiyi looked at her back, wondering about the identity of that lady.
The area where Lin Wenge sells paper, ink, pens and inkstones and the book lending area on the second floor are the busiest, with only a few scattered people in the area where books are sold on the first floor.
Even Zhao Zhiyuan and his classmates squeezed to the second floor.
Lin Zhiyi thought that he should hire a few more guys.
There was no one on the first floor, so Zhao Zhan took care of it while Lin Zhiyi and Li Wenjing went up to the second floor.
Lin Xue was busy at this time, and there was a long line of people waiting to borrow books.
When she saw Lin Zhiyi coming up, she hurriedly called out, "Cousin, cousin, come and help."
"good."
When Lin Zhiyi arrived, Lin Xue felt much more relaxed and asked people who wanted to borrow books to line up in two queues.
Each person who borrows a book is issued a library card with the borrowing date, deposit amount, borrower's name, and the seal of Lin Wenge written on it.
Lin Xue's handwriting was so good that many people couldn't help but look at her and speculate about her identity.
Could she be the Lady of Jiahe County that the shop owner mentioned?
But Lin Zhiyi's handwriting was not good. He didn't know how to hold a brush, and the words he wrote were crooked. Even Li Wenjing couldn't help but frown.
Everything about Zhizhi is good, except this handwriting...
"Let me do it."
Seeing everyone's disgusted looks, Lin Zhiyi couldn't help but blush and gave the brush to Li Wenjing.
By the way, there is a soft brush in her space, and the handwriting it writes is almost the same as that of a brush. The soft brush has an ink bag, and after adding ink, it can write a lot of words, unlike a brush that needs to be dipped in ink after writing a few strokes.
Lin Zhiyi took it out while no one was paying attention.
"Xue'er, you must be tired from writing. Come, take a break and I'll help you."
Lin Xue wanted to say that she was not tired and she really liked this job.
But looking over there, many people couldn't find their books. Chai Ya had little literacy and was running around anxiously, so she had to put down her pen and let Lin Zhiyi take over first.
When everyone saw that it was Lin Zhiyi who was appointed, they immediately became unhappy. "Let Miss Lin write it. She can't even write. How can the library card she writes for us be valid?"
"Yes, after all, that Miss Lin is the Princess of Jiahe County. I heard that the bamboo paper was invented by her. No wonder her handwriting is so beautiful. I'm afraid that the most talented woman in Fangzhou will have to give up her position."
"She's even prettier. She looks only fifteen or sixteen, so I'm afraid she's still unmarried..."
………
Everyone was talking and guessing about Lin Xue's identity.
Hearing this, Lin Xue frowned and said loudly, "You all guessed wrong. This is the Lady of Jiahe County. The bamboo paper and the books in the shop were all made by my cousin."
Everyone fell silent.
You look at me and I look at you.
Everyone found it unbelievable. She was the Princess of Jiahe County?
How come you can’t even write?
Zhao Zhiyuan's classmates were also queuing up. After hearing this, they hurried to call Zhao Zhiyuan.
"What? You said Miss Lin is the Princess of Jiahe County?" Zhao Zhiyuan widened his eyes.
It turned out that he had misunderstood. Miss Lin said she knew the shop owner, and it turned out that he was her brother.
"You live in the same village, don't you know?"
Zhao Zhiyuan blushed suddenly, "I've been in the county for the past six months and haven't been home much."
He had indeed heard his mother mention the matter of Lady Jiahe, but his mind was only focused on the imperial examination, hoping to pass the exam as soon as possible so that he could propose marriage to the Lin family.
Unexpectedly, the Jiahe County Lady who was widely talked about in the county was actually Miss Lin.
He looked at Lin Zhiyi again, and then glanced at Li Wenjing, and felt that he was not worthy of Miss Lin.
How could he marry Miss Lin when he doesn't even have any achievements?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he made up his mind to talk to Lin Zhiyi another day.
The people queuing here originally didn't want Lin Zhiyi to fill out the library card, but when they heard that she was the Princess of Jiahe County and the owner of the shop, they didn't stop her.
He just sighed. Miss Lin is so talented, why doesn't she practice her handwriting?
When Lin Zhiyi wrote a library card with a soft brush, everyone couldn't help but stretch their necks.
What kind of pen is Miss Lin using? How come her handwriting suddenly improved?
