Zhou Chong has always been a very optimistic child. He did not feel ashamed or uncomfortable at all because his father became a servant in his friend's house.
On the contrary, he felt very good and happy, because this way his father could be much more relaxed than before. Selling mung bean soup was really hard and tiring.
Su Liuer smiled at Zhou Chong and replied, "Aunt wants to invite your father because she thinks highly of him. Even without your words, I wouldn't trust him."
"Thank you, Madam Su. I will do my best!" Zhou Da also expressed his determination.
Su Liuer laughed again. This father and son really have the same temperament.

Su Liuer took Zhu Hongan and left first. Zhou Da and Zhou Chong still had a lot to say.
"Mom has been away for a few days. Did you miss her?" Su Liuer asked Zhu Hongan in a relaxed tone while holding his hand.
Zhu Hongan nodded and said seriously, "I do."
"Well—do you want to see what gift Mom brought you?"
Zhu Hongan's big eyes lit up, and he responded in a loud, baby voice, "I do!" What's important is not that there is a gift, but that the gift is brought to him by his mother!
"Then let's go quickly. The gift is with your Grandma Wang."
"Yeah!" The short-legged boy immediately quickened his pace along with Su Liuer.
When they arrived at the town entrance, Mrs. Wang was already sitting on the donkey cart waiting for the mother and son. She still wore the pair of hairpin earrings on both ears.
Zhu Hongan noticed it as soon as he saw her, pointing at the earrings and saying, "New!!"
Mrs. Wang raised her hand and touched her earrings, then glared at Su Liuer.
Su Liuer hurriedly explained, "I didn't teach him this in advance. He discovered it himself. Hong'an, do your Grandma Wang's new earrings look good on him?"
"Good! Look!" Zhu Hongan still spoke word by word, but if someone is careful, they will find that the pause between words is now shorter than before.
Su Liuer raised her eyebrows and smiled at Wang Pozi, "Children don't lie. If he says you are pretty, then you are pretty."
"Okay, okay, let's get in the car and go back!" Mrs. Wang felt embarrassed by Su Liuer's teasing.
Su Liuer carried Zhu Hongan into the car, then sat in it herself, pointing to the package on the side and said:
"Son, open it yourself and take a look." This small package was the gift that Su Liuer brought to Zhu Hongan.
Zhu Hongan is a smart and studious boy, and he loves reading, so the gift Su Liuer bought for him in Shanghe County this time was the four treasures of the study except for the inkstone.
Because Master Liang had given me an inkstone as a reward before, and that was already a very good inkstone, so there was no need to buy another one.
In comparison, the brushes, ink and paper used by Zhu Hongan are of relatively inferior quality.
Su Liuer had bought them for her in Qingxi Town before, and she couldn't buy anything better, so this time when she passed by Shanghe County, she specially went to the study and bought them for Zhu Hongan.
Zhu Hongan's eyes lit up after he opened the package.
He reached out and carefully opened the pencil case, picked up the brush inside, gently touched the bristles of the brush, then looked at the ink, and reached out to touch the paper carefully.
You can tell how much he likes it without him saying anything.
Su Liuer suddenly felt a little complacent.
A child who loves reading so much like Zhu Hongan would be loved by his parents no matter where he is in the world. She really found a treasure.
"When I make more money, I'll buy you better books. I'll buy you lots and lots of books. I'll even make you a bookcase to store all your favorite books!"
"good!"
Original books are expensive, so most people copy them themselves or buy copies made by others.
Therefore, there are many people who have received education but failed to pass the examination to become a scholar and make a living by copying books. Zhu Dagui, who cannot continue to study in the academy, is doing this to make money recently.
