I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 564 Someone fell down the stairs

Bai Yunxi looked at Mrs. Li and curled her lips, "You are right, you are indeed a prodigal. Therefore, if you raise a child, you must teach him, and if he disobeys, he must beat him. A filial son will emerge from under the stick. I agree with this."

  The original owner was quite pampered towards several children, but in the end, each one of them almost made her sit down with anger.

“Mother is right, we have to take action,”

　　 Li nodded in agreement. If she had a son in the future, she would have to prepare a rolling pin early.

 After returning home, Baiyunxi rested for a day, and took Wenyou to the county the next day.

To be honest, she felt much more at ease with Wenyou by her side.

When he arrived at the gate of the county town, Baiyun Xi also took a special look at the porridge shed set up outside the city gate. Although no one was there, the stove and other things had not been dismantled.

 After entering the city, I found the bookstore based on my memory.

 The bookstores in the county are more than twice as big as those in the town.

 The bookstore here is divided into two floors: upper and lower.

 On the first floor, in addition to various books, there are also pens, inks, papers and inkstones of different prices for guests to choose from.

  She heard that the upstairs was full of books for students’ scientific examinations. She had never been there and didn’t know the layout of the upstairs.

Baiyunxi took Wenyou around in the store and fell in love with a set of Four Treasures of the Study. The inkstone was made of bluestone, with only a green bamboo pattern carved on it, and the style was simple. Paired with two small wolf hairs, as for the paper and ink, they are the most common rice paper and ink strips.

Even so, this set would cost three dollars, which made her heartache.

The waiter looked at Bai Yunxi's hesitant expression and explained enthusiastically, "Madam, although the pattern of this bluestone inkstone is simple, the workmanship is really outstanding. There are also these two wolf hairs, which are quite good in one set."

 These days, except for scholars, ordinary people do not enter bookstores.

Baiyunxi nodded. Although the quality was average, it was already a luxury to give it away in the countryside.

"Okay, that's it, just pick her up."

 “Hey~, ma’am, wait a minute.”

The waiter's eyes lit up, and he quickly put the four treasures of the study into a wooden box. He took Bai Yunxi to the counter to pay the bill, and then handed the wooden box to Wenyou behind her.

After buying the things, Bai Yunxi was about to leave. When he passed the stairs on the second floor, he glanced subconsciously.

The waiter was very smart. When he saw Bai Yunxi looking towards the second floor, he immediately stepped forward to explain,

“The second floor of our bookstore is specially prepared for students. In addition to books, you can also discuss knowledge there.”

 Listening to the waiter’s explanation, Baiyunxi understood that it had the same nature as the library she had at that time.

 Go back and tell Xiao Wu that if he wants, he can come here to read. If he is lucky, he can also make some similar friends.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard a thud upstairs, and along with a few exclamations, Baiyunxi saw a person rolling down the stairs.

Just when she was stunned, Wenyou stuffed the wooden box into the waiter's arms, jumped up, grabbed the man's collar directly, spun around, and landed steadily at the escalator on the first floor.

The incident happened in an instant. When Bai Yunxi came back to his senses, he saw that the young man who had been rescued by Wenyou had a pale face and looked like he had not recovered yet.

Bai Yunxi raised her head and looked at the position where the man fell. If Wenyou hadn't rescued him, the man would have just hit her.

 “Stand still.”

Wenyou glanced at him and let go of her hand. Seeing him swaying, she subconsciously held onto the handrail of the stairs to barely stabilize her body.

He stared at Wenyou, looking stiff and embarrassed.
