Two or three days passed.
Shen Ningning returned to the village to check on the repairs of her house.
Just as she entered the village, she heard a call from behind: "Miss Shen, please wait!"
She turned and saw a guard, accompanied by two young servants, approaching on horseback.
The little one recognized him. He was one of the men Grandpa County Magistrate had brought with him before.
"Brother Guard." Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes, standing in place and greeting him politely.
The guard smiled, dismounted, and took a heavy package from one of the servants.
"Miss Shen, our County Magistrate heard you'll be starting at the private school in a few days, so he specially prepared some paper, brushes, and books for you."
As he spoke, he unwrapped the package in front of her.
Inside were high-quality writing brushes and an inkstone, as well as two primers.
There was also a bag of broken silver and a fifty-tael silver note.
