After watching Jiang Yu leave, Jiang Xiaoxiao wandered around the study.

Zheng Yaocai had left angrily, but the others had not left yet. After Jiang Yu left, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao picking out books alone, they all wanted to come up and talk to him.

But Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't want to get involved with this group of people. She knew very well that these arrogant students wanted to have a good relationship with her because of Jiang Yu's connections.

Jiang Yu and her family are just business partners. Other than that, they don't have much relationship.

Jiang Xiaoxiao treated all the people's overtures equally and ignored them.

Seeing that there was no chance, the few people gradually dispersed.

Jiang Xiaoxiao continued to pick books. This study was very big, and the bookcases were integrated with the roof of the house. Some books were high up and she couldn't reach them, so she just looked at the ones at lower places.

Turning her eyes, she suddenly saw several picture albums with magnificent covers placed on the bookcase in the corner.

She subconsciously bent down to get it. She might as well stretch out a hand from behind and cover her eyes.

"...Little sister, go look elsewhere."

It was the young man's clear voice, but there was a hint of awkwardness in it.

"..." Jiang Xiaoxiao did not struggle and nodded silently.

The second before her vision was blocked, she glanced at the words on the covers of the albums: Erotic Pictures...

Duan Yu took her away and came to a more open bookcase, "What book do you want, I will get it for you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao raised her eyes and looked at Duan Yu, who was wearing a brocade robe with cloud patterns. The young man had a long body and handsome features, making him look like a handsome man with a suave appearance.

He looks like he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he is quite tall.

Jiang Xiaoxiao simply pointed to the Four Books and Five Classics in the top row and asked for them all.

Duan Yu did not doubt that he was there and picked out a book one by one.

Jiang Xiaoxiao took a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" and opened it eagerly.

When she first came to this world, she was still a little unaccustomed to the traditional Chinese fonts here, but she gradually got used to it. In addition, the dose of genetic modification fluid her mother injected into her was indeed very effective, and her memory improved. It is much better than in her previous life. After reading the two "Thousand Character Classic" and "Three Character Classic" before, she can also match the modern simplified characters with the traditional characters of this era. There is no obstacle to reading books of this era. .

She glanced at the Analects in her hand and breathed a sigh of relief. Although this world was an imaginary world and many things were incomplete, fortunately, the contents in the Four Books and Five Classics were the same as those in her world.

Duan Yu looked at her young and immature face, which was full of maturity and familiarity, and shook his head in amusement: "Can you really understand the content?"

"That's natural." Jiang Xiaoxiao raised her face and nodded confidently.

Not to mention that "The Analects of Confucius" is a Chinese language subject that must be memorized in elementary school. The other "Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean", "Mencius"... these are all Confucian classics that have been passed down for thousands of years. Not to mention memorizing them fluently, but they can also be learned by heart. Familiar.

Duan Yu smiled and said nothing to Jiang Xiaoxiao's words. He didn't believe it in his heart and just thought the other party was joking.

After all, Jiang Xiaoxiao looked like a five-year-old child. How could a child of this age have read the Four Books and Five Classics if he didn't even know a few big characters?

However, the next second, Jiang Xiaoxiao shook her head and read out a sentence: "The Master said, knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, which is knowing."

Duan Yu's eyes widened suddenly.

But at this moment, a female voice called from outside the study:

"Xiaoxiao——"

"Mom!" Jiang Xiaoxiao responded, then tilted her head and winked slyly at Duan Yu, who was stunned in front of her: "Keep it a secret." After saying that, she hugged the book and walked away.

Duan Yu was left with a dumbfounded expression.

He looked at his hands in disbelief, feeling unreal.

Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing...knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing.

He didn't expect Jiang Xiaoxiao to answer his doubts with this sentence from the Analects of Confucius.

Is she really...only five years old?

Duan Yu still found it a bit incredible. He was surprised that Jiang Xiaoxiao had read so many books at such a young age.

These Four Books and Five Classics are almost all read by those taking the scholar examination. None of the classmates who came with him had read all the Four Books and Five Classics.

Ignoring Duan Yu who was behind him, Jiang Xiaoxiao left the study with a stack of books. No matter what she said, the shopkeeper didn't charge her for the books.

Jiang Wei outside didn't seem surprised at all when he saw her arms full of books. He stretched out his hand to help her take it and put it on the oxcart behind her.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked up and saw that the bullock cart was piled with bricks. She couldn't help but be startled: "Mom, why did you buy so many bricks?"

Could it be the bricks used to build a house? !

But what her family ordered were not green bricks. These bricks looked gray and did not look like they were used to build a house.

Jiang Weidao: "These are the bricks I use to build the kiln."

"Mom, you want to build a kiln?" Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned, "What are you going to build a kiln for?"

Jiang Wei did not answer any more, but asked Old Man Zhao to carry the cart of bricks back to the village.

The bullock cart was piled with bricks, and there was also a freezer that Jiang Wei had delivered. There was no place for the mother and daughter to sit. It looked like they were going to walk back to the village.

"While I was picking bricks, Jiang Yu sent a boy over to deliver a message." Jiang Wei suddenly said, "Were you wronged in the study?"

"Uh..." Jiang Xiaoxiao waved her hands hurriedly, "Mom, it's not a big deal, it was all settled by Master Jiang."

She didn't want her mother to worry, otherwise she would have to carry her with her wherever she went. She was slow in her steps, and in the end she would have to hold her mother back.

"Oh, you don't have to blame that guy. His Sun family is not a good person." Jiang Wei sneered and looked pointedly at the dock not far ahead.

Jiang Xiaoxiao also followed and looked around. The pier was bustling with people, and many ships were parked at the pier. Workers in shorts were carrying things up and down. In this hot weather, Gebu was almost soaked with sweat. Mai.

But the supervisor of the Sun family next to him was still too slow and kept beating the workers on the back with a whip.

"Hurry up! Why are you wasting your time? Do you still want to get paid?"

Those workers were in pain, but they dared not speak out. They could only pick up heavy bags of goods and speed up.

Jiang Xiaoxiao frowned.

She had heard before that almost all the ships on the docks in Qingping County belonged to the Sun family. The Sun family made a lot of money from these ships and was considered a prominent figure in Qingping County.

But with such incredible wealth, the Sun family was not only ungrateful, but also harshly owed wages to workers. They beat and scolded workers when they had the slightest displeasure, treating people like animals!

They even coerced the workers into signing a contract to serve the Sun family ships for the rest of their lives.
