If such an extremely intelligent person really wanted to be an official, why would he hold back?

She was even more certain that he must have had a bad ending in his previous life. That was why he didn’t rely on studying to become an official in this life and chose to farm.

“Where do we go next? To sell your books?” she looked at the book in his hand.

“It’s already noon, let’s eat something first.” Xue Yan composed himself. There was no hurry to sell the books.

“What do you want to eat?”

“Mother wanted us to eat noodles, do you want to eat noodles?”

“Then let’s eat the noodles.” She hadn’t eaten noodles since she came here and had almost forgotten what noodles tasted like.

“There’s a noodle stall in front.”

“Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yue followed Xue Yan to the noodle shop and ordered two small bowls of mutton noodles from the cook after checking the menu.

Although it was mutton noodles, there were only a few pieces of mutton in each bowl. One small bowl cost five coins, and two small bowls cost ten coins.

However, this small bowl was still bigger than the small bowl at home, and Jiang Yue couldn’t eat that much.

Therefore, she picked up the chopsticks and put some food into Xue Yan’s bowl before eating. Xue Yan was older than her and had a bigger appetite, so he should be able to finish it.

Xue Yan just sat opposite her and watched her silently.

It was only when she pushed his bowl of noodles back to him that he picked up his chopsticks and ate unhurriedly, looking extremely refined.

Jiang Yue also started eating.

Although there weren’t many pieces of mutton, it was still quite delicious. This was the best food she had ever eaten in the many days she had been here.

Even the soup was delicious.

It was rare to see only two children eating at the noodle shop without the company of adults. The two children were also very good-looking. One was gentle, and the other was likable. They were very well-behaved and ate noodles almost without making a sound. People passing by and eating at other tables couldn’t help but take a few rare glances at this side. If it weren’t for the fact that the two children were wearing coarse clothes and had a basket on the back of a farmer’s basket beside them, they would assume that they were young kids from rich families.

After eating the noodles, Xue Yan took out ten coins and paid the cook.

“Let’s go to the bookstore.” Xue Yan said.

Knowing that they were going to sell books, Jiang Yue nodded and followed Xue Yan, “Is it far?”

“Nope, it’s close by.”

“Okay.” Jiang Yue nodded again.

This street was the most prosperous street in the town. It was obvious that the largest and tastiest restaurant was opened on this street. Since this bookstore was able to open on this street, it meant that business was booming.

Jiang Yue saw the words White Room Bookstore on the board before she got close.

The words here were the traditional Chinese characters from her original world, and she could still recognize them.

Many people came in and out of the bookstore. They were basically all scholars, and it could be seen from their clothes. Each of them was wearing a long robe, and they looked refined and scholarly.

Some of them were even holding scrolls in their hands.

Xue Yan had come here to sell his books a few times before, so he was familiar with the place.

Although many books could be printed, the cost of printing was too high. It was impossible to print every book in this way. Moreover, the font was fixed and rigid. Anyway, there were still many people copying books in this world.

When Jiang Yue and Xue Yan entered the bookstore, there were a few people who were also selling handwritten books. However, their writings were not as good as Xue Yan’s, so the price was low. Xue Yan had well-written books, so the others could only sell for 300 coins at most, but he could sell his for 500 coins.
