Chapter 4: Planted
In the small courtyard, the lights are cast in the courtyard through the thick paper windows, and the shadows are full of shadows, reflecting a layer of golden yellow on the snow.
Sitting in the room, Yan Wenyuan frowned and smoked a cigarette with a sad face. Looking at the white gold necklace on the table, and the watch that looked a little strange, on the wrist, I suddenly felt annoyed.
Throughout the day, after leaving from the loser named "Chen Moran", as long as he thought of what he said when he was leaving, Yan Wenyuan muttered in his heart.
"Silently thank the shopkeeper for today's high righteousness, he said that there will be a retribution!"
"My name is Chen Moran!"
The lame and ruined son's words, when I heard it, didn't seem to be interesting, but after tasting it carefully, Yan Wenyuan only felt that there was weirdness in these words, as for how weird! As for the weird but endless way there.
"This watch?"
Looking at the watch that had just been fished out of the basin, the watch was still turning, and there was no appearance of entering the water, if it was replaced by those common foreign watches, thrown into the water without smoking, I am afraid that it would stop, it would be like this watch soaked in water for a day, and there was no trace of abnormality.
The platinum chain can't be faked, there is no one on the side, this bit of eyesight Yan Wenyuan is still quite confident, and he has been in the pawnshop for decades, relying on this pair of fiery eyes.
"What's the bottom of that?"
Smoking a cigarette, the more Yan Wenyuan thought about it, the more he felt that he was afraid that he would be shabu this time, but he couldn't find out what was shabu, and spent 12,000 taels to buy a fake, obviously impossible, these two things, especially the watch, have never been worn by anyone, and second, the water is not soaked and it can't be broken, 12,000 taels, although it seems to be high, but in fact, once it changes hands, it is not impossible to sell it to those foreigners or dignitaries, and sell it for tens of thousands or even 100,000 taels.
But the more this is the case, the more strange Yan Wenyuan feels, no one takes a hundred thousand taels of things as 10,000 taels, and he happily thanks himself, and it is after the silver is in his arms.
While Yan Wenyuan was pondering what was wrong, Jing Xuan walked up behind him lightly with the pug in his arms and suddenly said loudly and mischievously.
"Dad, are you thinking about your money again?"
If there is a big Jinling City, no one knows, Wendang Yan Lao picks, and he can't hold anything in his brain, only silver, which can enter his head.
Yan Wenyuan, who was meditating hard, was so frightened by her that he almost threw away the hookah in his hand and patted his chest.
"You damn girl, scare me, take your dog away, you know I can't see that thing!"
Seeing the pug in his daughter's arms, Yan Wenyuan's brows furrowed even tighter, if it weren't for the fact that the dog was worth fifty taels of silver, he was afraid that he would have been thrown out of the house long ago.
Jing Xuan stuck out her tongue and turned the dog to the maid ring behind her, although her father said that he hurt himself, but he couldn't see what he had spent money on.
"Hey Dad, what's wrong with you today, I heard my nurse say that since you came home today, you haven't smiled, even your favorite braised pork, and you haven't moved your chopsticks today?"
She knows more about her father, if there is nothing to worry about, she will never move chopsticks to the braised pork, in Jinling City, Dad is famous for picking the door, but he has to eat a plate of braised pork every day, although he only eats four pieces each time, according to his father, when he is poor, he dreams of eating braised pork, four pieces per piece, is essential.
What's wrong with this daddy? What's going on? What else could it be besides silver? After returning home from the view, listening to the nurse say this, she was thinking about what happened to her father today, yesterday she was still laughing at this year's business, and after a day, why did she worry again, in addition to silver, what else could make her father worry like this.
His daughter's words made Yan Wenyuan pretend to be confused.
"I don't have a good appetite this time! The year is not good, save some food! ”
Seeing that her father was reluctant to speak, Jing Xuan twisted her body unhappily and lied coquettishly.
"Dad, you're pretending to be confused again!"
"Ah, it's not because of your dog, as soon as I see it, I think of the fifty taels of silver! It's a ton of meat, better than what your father and I eat! ”
In the face of his baby daughter's coquettishness, Yan Wenyuan continued to pretend to be confused, and even did not hesitate to compare himself with a dog out of cover-up.
Dad's metaphor made Jing Xuanqiao blush, and she took a sip urgently.
"Dad, who told you to say this! If you want to eat, you ...... for sure."
Halfway through speaking, she noticed that there was a lot of meaning in her words, and quickly stopped talking, that there was a comparison between her father and a dog.
"That's it, I'll tell you, today...... Hey......"
The appearance of her daughter made Yan Wen unbearable, and when she thought of what she encountered today, she couldn't help but sigh.
The whole Jinling knows that he Yan Wenyuan is the first in Jinling, but they also know that he loves this daughter the most, and he can't wait to give her all the stars and moons in the sky, as long as she is happy.
Thirty-two years ago into the Liu family, according to the idea at the time, Yan Wenyuan also wanted to have a few more sons in the future, and had a son surnamed Yan to be content, but never wanted to marry for 17 years, his wife has not been pregnant, and then asked God to worship the Buddha, who had thought to be a daughter, although he gave birth to a daughter, in order to repay his wife, he also went to the temple to practice and repay, just such a baby, that can not hurt, the daughter who saw this time was anxious and her eyes were red, so what kind of face could she take care of.
"Your father and I are shrewd, and I will eventually fight geese, but I never thought that today I would be pecked by a sparrow!"
After saying that, Yan Wenyuan couldn't help but let out another long sigh, looking at the gold chain of the watch on the table, and shook his head helplessly.
Jing Xuan was shocked when she heard this, with her father's shrewdness, who could deceive him.
"Dad, what's going on?"
Yan Wen glanced at her from afar, and then at the things on the table.
"Daddy this time...... Hey"
Dad's long sigh made Jing Xuan's heart startled, and at the same time, following her father's gaze, he looked at the strange foreign watch on the table and the white gold thick chain, could it be that this is a piece of Dad's heart?
Carefully checked the foreign watch and platinum chain on the table, although she didn't care about the pawnshop's business, but since she was young, she had accumulated a vision that was not inferior to her father's.
"Dad, this foreign watch is also exquisite, and the white gold chain is also in good condition and weight......"
Turning around, Jing Xuan looked at his father with a sad brow.
"Hey!"
Sigh again! If it was fake, Yan Wenyuan would admit it, but the problem was here! Tangled! His lips opened, and he didn't speak, but looking at his daughter's anxious appearance, he couldn't bear to tell the whole story.
"Hey......"
After explaining the whole story, thinking of the 12,000 taels of silver, Yan Wenyuan, who was extremely distressed, slapped his thigh hard, looked at his daughter, and then at the object in his daughter's hand, lowered his head, and sighed.
"Girl, your father is planted this time!"
"Daddy! That Chen Moran, Chen lame bullied you? ”
"Nope!"
"That's a liking to you?"
Shaking his head again.
"That's not it, maybe this foreign watch that doesn't soak in water and can't be broken is really a treasure! Dad, you can be relieved! ”
Jing Xuan persuaded quietly, but she knew in her heart that this watch and this chain were not worth the price at all, and the reason why her father was confused for a while was simply because of the way of the lame man.
"Girl!"
Yan Wenyuan pointed to his eyes.
"These two tricks are planted today!"
The voice fell, thinking of the jokes of his peers when the big boss landed in Jinling City in the Ming Dynasty. Yan Wenyuan let out another long sigh.
When her father pointed to her eyes, Jing Xuan knew what her father cared about, it was nothing more than a face, and today's Chen lame man was a pawn, and he was a father's face at all!
"Dad, don't you have half a year to do this thing, you ......"
Looking at her father's appearance, Jing Xuan's eyes rolled to an idea, and then she spit out her idea in her father's ear, and at the same time, she secretly hated the person who cut her father's face in her heart.
"Chen Moran! Chen Cripple! ”
At this time, Chen Moran, who was far away in the quarry of Shogunate Mountain, didn't know that he just entered Jinling City and became a "baby", so he got into the grudge of others, and Chen Moran, who was carrying a huge amount of money, would just persuade the third master who was sitting on the table without saying a word, his life-saving benefactor.
"Third master, you have no children and no daughters, and you have a life-saving grace for Mo Ran, if you don't repay this kindness......"
Seeing the third master's hesitant look, Chen Moran gritted his teeth, threw away his crutches, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed.
"Knock knock!"
Looking up at the panicked third master, Chen Moran had a serious look on his face.
"Third master, if you shouldn't, you can't kneel silently!"
Knowing the kindness, this etiquette Chen silently understands.
"Let's go! Cease! ”
Looking at Mo Ran's more real look, Wang Desan waved his hand a little weakly.
"I'll go with you!"
