Tan Dejin drove the ox cart to the county seat according to Qiduo's request.

While passing by a pawnshop, Qiduo asked Tan Dejin to stop the car.

"Duo, what's wrong?" Tan Dejin glanced at the pawnshop, then at Qiduo, and asked incomprehensibly.

Qiduo took out a pawn ticket from his sleeve, raised it to his father, and said, "Dad, let's redeem it." ”

"Ransom?" Tan Dejin didn't understand for a moment.

But Qiduo had already walked towards the pawnshop.

He hurriedly pulled the ox cart over.

Qiduo walked into the pawnshop, stood on tiptoe, and stuffed the pawn ticket in his hand towards the high counter, "Redeem it." ”

The counter was so high that it almost reached her neck, and she couldn't see it clearly.

"Wait." A cold voice came from the high counter, without a trace of emotion.

After a long time, when Qiduo was waiting impatiently, a cold voice sounded again, "Five taels and five dollars." ”

Uh, that's too much money, isn't it?

Qiduo was shocked, she redeemed the earrings that Xu was last time, and she was five taels of silver, which was only ten days of work, and she had to pay an extra five hundred wen and drink blood!

But she knew that it was useless to argue with others, this was the rule of trade, so she had to put the money on the counter.

The river clams, bamboo shoots, and bracken were sold for a total of nine taels and six dollars of silver, and only four taels and one dollars were left.

Qiduo wanted to redeem Xu's earrings for a long time, but the silver was too little before, and there was not much left after redeeming the earrings, in case there was trouble in case of emergency.

Now I got two hundred taels at once, and I ran to redeem it as soon as possible.

In another ten days, I will be busy with spring ploughing, and I will quickly divide my family, and then take the silver to buy the fields. Don't miss the spring ploughing.

Qiduo called Tan Dejin in, and saw that the earrings were Xu's thing. Don't be fooled.

Tan Dejin looked carefully and nodded. "It's your mother's, and both earrings have your mother's name engraved on them."

Qiduo looked at the back of the earrings, and sure enough, there was the word 'Mingxiu', it seems that these earrings were specially made for the mother, and the mother was still very favored at home before.

"Dad, you take it away, go back to your mother, and make your mother happy." Qiduo wrapped the earrings in a handkerchief and handed them to Tan Dejin. Said with a chuckle.

"Hey, you're still thoughtful. However, if you don't have a lot of ideas, your mother's earrings will never be redeemed in this life. Tan Dejin said with great emotion.

He looked down at the handkerchief in his hand, and his heart fluctuated.

If he didn't have his daughter come up with these ways to make money, he would still be penniless, not to mention redeeming earrings, even if he wanted to buy a silk for his wife, he wouldn't be able to afford it. I am really ashamed of my wife and daughter, and I am a man in vain.

His eyes began to glaze. Worried about being seen by Qiduo, he hurriedly took the handkerchief into his arms and put it away closely.

Qiduo squinted and smiled, and prepared to go out with Tan Dejin.

Suddenly, a cold shout came from behind, "Phew." Useless wreck! ”

Unfamiliar voice, Qiduo did not doubt it, and walked out calmly.

But Tan Dejin's back stiffened. His face was pale, and his legs could not exert strength. Stand still and stand still.

Qiduo walked out of the pawnshop, only to find that Daddy didn't come out with him. Hurriedly turned his head and looked. Seeing Dad's appearance, he was shocked and hurriedly ran in, "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

Tan Dejin shook his head, and then turned his head around with great difficulty, trying to find something.

Qiduo also followed his gaze and looked around, but he didn't see anything, and he was even more suspicious, "Dad, what are you looking at?" ”

Tan Dejin subconsciously covered the earrings on his chest and said in a low voice, "It's okay, let's go." ”

Then he pulled Qiduo and walked away from the pawnshop quickly.

Behind the pawnshop's tall wooden fence, there are a pair of angry eyes, staring at Tan Dejin's back.

These eyes belonged to a man who was close to the age of six, and there was not only anger in his sharp eyes, but even hatred.

And in the depths of his eyes, there is a pain that is so thick that it can't be dissolved.

The look is complicated.

Tan Dejin's mood was more complicated, he was silent all the way, his expression was gloomy, and there was a tired look on his face.

No matter what Qiduo said to him, he didn't say a word, as if he had suddenly lost his voice.

Qiduo suddenly remembered the cold drink behind him when he left, it seems that the change of the father started at that time, is that scolding the father?

Who is that person, and why do you want to scold Daddy?

There are many doubts in my heart.

"Dad, there's someone you know in the pawnshop?" Qiduo asked tentatively.

Tan Dejin's lips were pursed and he didn't speak, but his head nodded almost invisibly.

"Who is that man?" Qiduo asked again and hurriedly.

This time, Tan Dejin never spoke again.

Qiduo pursed her lips a little depressedly, it was immoral to hang people's appetites like this.

The ox cart entered the county seat, and Qiduo went to buy two boxes of dim sum and a small jar of wine, and then asked Tan Dejin to drive the ox cart to Fenglin Hall.

"Duo, are you here to see Mr. Wen?" Tan Dejin finally opened his mouth, and his expression was a little warm.

Qiduo nodded, "That's right, last time someone saved Liulang, we haven't been thanking, I saw that it was still early today, so I came." ”

"Ah, you kid, you didn't say it sooner. I knew that I would catch a few chickens at home and bring some eggs to replenish Wen Gongzi's body. Anthi Dekin complained a little.

"Dad, will grandma let you take the chickens and eggs at home?" Qiduo asked unceremoniously.

Tan Dejin's face turned pale, scratched his head, and said in a low voice, "If it doesn't work, let's go to another place and buy a few." ”

Qiduo waved his hand, "Dad, Gongzi Wen is not from our countrymen, don't need those, go in." ”

Tan Dejin had no choice but to nod, but thought in his heart that he would definitely send a few chickens over next time.

Qiduo and Tan Dejin carried snacks, food boxes, wine and bamboo shoots, and entered Fenglin Hall together.

Before Qiduo could speak, a sharp-eyed elementary school apprentice recognized her, and hurriedly ran forward to greet her, "Hello girl." ”

"Hello little brother, is Gongzi Wen here?" Qiduo also asked with a smile.

"Uncle Wen is meeting friends, girl, please wait a moment, I'll go talk to Uncle Wen." The elementary school apprentices were busy.

Qiduo smiled and thanked him, and the junior apprentice left in a hurry.

Ge Fenglin was in the inner room to see the sick, and he didn't see Qiduo, otherwise he would have come out early to say hello. For the last time Qiduo saved Wen Xiuyi. He's always been grateful.

The junior apprentice quickly went and returned, and the handsome boy in white clothes behind him was Wen Xiuyi.

Look at his brisk pace and ruddy complexion. It seems that the injury is recovering well.

Seeing Wen Xiuyi coming out, Tan Dejin hurriedly stepped forward. Grateful call, "Gong Wen." And he bowed.

"You're welcome, uncle." Wen Xiuyi hurriedly raised his hand and gently stopped him.

Qiduo handed the dim sum and food box in his hand to Wen Xiuyi, "Young Master Wen, thank you for saving my brother last time, these things are heartfelt." ”

Tan Dejin hurriedly brought the wine and bamboo shoots over, "Wen Engong, the bamboo shoots were dug this morning, and they are very fresh." ”

Wen Xiuyi glanced at things. The star-bright eyes looked at Qiduo, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and his slender and white hand pointed to the food box, "What is that?" ”

He was a little curious about the contents of the food box.

"Snails." Qiduo handed the dim sum to the apprentice, and then lifted the lid of the food box, and an enticing fragrance suddenly came to his face.

"It smells so good." The elementary school student couldn't help but shout.

Wen Xiuyi's eyes brightened, and he gently sniffed and said, "Spicy little snail?" ”

It's both a question and an affirmation.

"Wen Gongzi is very skilled, and he guessed what it was before he saw it. But to be precise, it should be spicy snails, because there are no peppercorns in it, and there is less hemp smell. Qiduo laughed.

Wen Xiuyi smiled lightly. He made a gesture of please in the direction of the flower hall, "Uncle, please girl." ”

Until now. He didn't even mention the seven flowers saving their lives.

I don't know if I forgot.

"No......" Tan Dejin hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, he thought about giving the thing to Wen Xiuyi. Say a few more words of thanks and leave, don't bother again.

But Qiduo rushed to answer quickly. "Thank you, Mr. Wen." Then he carried his things and walked towards the flower hall.

Tan Dejin had no choice but to smile apologetically at Wen Xiuyi and walk over there.

When he arrived at the flower hall and sat down, Wen Xiuyi had already instructed the junior apprentices to make tea and snacks.

"Gongzi Wen, my brother has been taking medicine according to the prescription you prescribed, I don't know how long I will take it, but I want to bring him over and you can help take a look?" Nanaduo talked about Rokuro's condition.

Wen Xiuyi bowed his head slightly, "If you have time, it's good to bring him here." ”

"Uh-huh, thank you Gongzi Wen." Qiduo nodded hurriedly in thanks.

Tan Dejin even thanked him repeatedly, with a look of gratitude on his face.

I wasn't very familiar with Wen Xiuyi, and after saying a few words, there was suddenly no topic, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

If it was usual, Qiduo would have said goodbye a long time ago, but she had asked Wen Xiuyi, but the goal had not been achieved, so she was unwilling to leave like this. But if you want to talk about the purpose directly, I'm a little embarrassed, after all, this thing is a bit embarrassing.

Wen Xiuyi seemed to guess Qiduo's thoughts, took a sip of tea, and said at the right time, "Girl, what I said last time counted. ”

"Hey, really?" Seven flowers smiled brightly.

"One word." Wen Xiuyi nodded solemnly.

"I know that Gongzi Wen is a person who remembers his promises, in fact, I also have something special, I just want to ask you for such a small favor." Qiduo said with a smile.

After about a quarter of an hour or so, Qiduo and Tan Dejin said goodbye to Wen Xiuyi, and she walked out of the flower hall with a smile on her face, feeling extremely happy.

This Wen Xiuyi is really a person who keeps his promises, and he actually agreed to his request, which is great, the matter is finally done. As long as Xu and Tan Dejin agree, the separation should be just around the corner.

Tan Dejin was not as happy as her, and his expression was sullen.

Qiduo ignored him, got on the ox cart, and shouted happily, "Dad, let's go home." ”

Tan Dejin raised his whip high and slapped the back of the ox, and the ox cart squeaked and drove towards Tanjiazhuang.

Inside the Maple Grove Hall.

Wen Xiuyi carried the little snail and walked to the study in the backyard, with a smile on her face like a spring breeze, which made people warm and comfortable, and felt happy.

Pushing open the door of the study, a blue-robed man sitting in front of the bookcase looked up, with a smile as warm as jade on his face, and said, "The guest is gone?" ”

"Please eat something good." Wen Xiuyi said with a smile and put the food box on the small table.

"What's the good thing that makes you so happy?" The blue-robed man raised his delicate eyebrows and walked over from the bookcase with a smile.

He and Wen Xiuyi have known each other for a long time, and it is the first time he has heard Wen Xiuyi call the food he eats a good thing, so he can't help but be secretly surprised, and he can't wait to come and see.

I wanted to see what kind of delicacy made Wen Xiuyi so happy. (To be continued......)
