Chapter 301 Promising

That's it.

Have your own opinions, so the food made by Sumulan will be more delicious than that made by others.

The children nodded thoughtfully.

At the end of the break, Bai Xuewen coughed slightly, signaling for everyone to be quiet, and then continued to talk about new texts and characters.

All the children listened more seriously than before.

There are many benefits to studying. People who have studied can cook and eat better than ordinary people. If they study hard, they will be more promising than others even if they don't take the exam.

Well, that’s what happened!

Here, Su Mulan led Bai Midou into the shop in the town and picked out the things he wanted to use.

They are all businessmen in the town, and the store manager Wu also knows Su Mulan, and knows that she wants to choose things for her children to go to school, so he only gives her cheap and useful things.

It's just that no matter how cheap and easy-to-use these things are, the number of pens, inks, paper and inkstones is quite a lot, and when you have to buy four people, the total number of things suddenly goes up. Even though it's the first time you buy it, what Su Mulan bought doesn't count. It was a lot, but in the end, it ended up costing two to four cents.

Shopkeeper Wu saw that he bought a lot of things, so he finally got a discount, charged two or three yuan, and gave a pen washer as a gift.

Ordinary porcelain, without much decoration, but it can be worth dozens of dollars if it is sold in the world.

Su Mulan thanked him, took these things, bought some daily necessities and meat, and then led Bai Midou back.

“These things are really expensive.”

On the way back, Bai Midou couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder people say that studying is the most expensive thing. These things cost more than two taels of silver, which is enough to repair the courtyard wall of our family twice."

Children from poor families know that it is not easy to make money. Now that they have to spend so much money to study, they feel very distressed.

“Different things cannot be compared together.”

Su Mulan smiled and said, "Just like the food we sell, glutinous rice sticks are not cheap. Compared with steamed buns, a pound of glutinous rice sticks can buy many steamed buns, but they taste different. The bricks are burning It’s easy, but the paper is very complicated, not to mention the pens and inks, which look expensive, but are worth the money.”

"Besides, these things are for you to study. They are practical things, not to mention expensive, and not to mention distressing. Mom knows that you are sensible, and I feel sorry for my mother that it is not easy to make money, but the money you should spend is still It’s going to be spent. If you invest now, you’ll receive it later.”

"I understand, it's just like farming. The wheat seeds are sown first so that the ears of wheat can be produced next year." Baimi Dou smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will study hard and not let my money go to waste."

It's like that kind of wheat. Once the seeds are planted, they have to be weeded, fertilized, and watered in order to produce better and more ears of wheat. You must not be a lazy farmer and let the wheat not bear fruit.

Bai Mi Dou secretly made up his mind.

Seeing Bai Mi Dou's smiling face tense up, Su Mulan also understood what he was thinking and said with a smile, "Don't be so nervous, just try your best. As my mother said, reading is for understanding the world. As for other things, it’s good if they are there, but if they aren’t, my mother won’t be angry.”

“Yeah.” Bai Mi Dou nodded heavily.

With Su Mulan's relief, Bai Midou felt a little lighter, but his determination remained unchanged.

Mother treated them so well, and there was nothing he could do to repay her now.
