I'M THE FARMGIRL YOU CAN'T MESS WITH

Chapter 278: Buying Books

Editor: Atlas Studios

The bookstore in Xingyuan Prefecture was not far from the prefectural school. In the past, the row was filled with books and various school supplies. This was the first time Bowen had seen so many bookstores lined up side by side. Like a mouse who had fallen into a rice warehouse, his eyes lit up as he looked around, unsure which shop to go to first.

Mu Yangling pulled Bowen to the largest bookstore.

The bookstore had a total of two floors. His shop was twice the size of other shops, and it was divided into two parts. There were five rows of bookshelves on the left, all filled with books, and on the right were various learning tools, such as brush, ink, paper, and inkstones. There were even some famous calligraphy paintings hanging on the front wall, and the wall on the right was filled with consigned calligraphy paintings. Mu Yangling looked up and realized that the calligraphy paintings on it were not bad. Yes, at least she could understand them.

There were many prefectural students reading in the bookstore. Xiuhong’s face flushed red. Seeing that her cousin was focused on the painting on the right wall, she cowered behind Bowen timidly. On the other hand, the usually timid-looking Bowen calmly went forward to take out a book to read. He even patted his cousin to reassure her.

When Mu Yangling turned around and saw this scene, she was slightly surprised.

It seemed that Xiuhong still felt a little inferior. Although she was energetic in the village, she would be timid when she met someone with a higher status than her. On the other hand, seeing as Bowen had always been a little weak and timid, she didn’t expect him to be so calm and steady.

Mu Yangling was pleasantly surprised.

She went forward and patted Xiuhong. The latter immediately held her cousin’s hand and calmed down.

“Bowen, take a look at what you need. We brought enough money. Go ahead and choose what you want with no regards to the money..” They could save on anything, but they couldn’t scrimp on food and education.

Bowen agreed with a smile.

Mu Yangling was about to choose a book herself when the assistant shopkeeper hurriedly followed her and asked in a low voice, “Miss, you want to buy books? I wonder what kind you want to buy. I’ll help you find them.”

Mu Yangling and the others did not dress like people who bought books. Although they were wearing wolf fur coats, the designs were that of the working class. They did not look like educated people.

Mu Yangling did not notice the assistant shopkeeper’s thoughts. She told him that she wanted to read some books on history and geography.
