A breeze blew, clinging Juanniang's sweat-soaked undershirt to her back.

It's sticky, greasy, and very uncomfortable.

Xiu'er turned her head to look at her, and exclaimed with a surprised expression, "Ah, Juanniang, why are you so white?"

"None...... It's okay, I'm just a little uncomfortable. Juan Niang hurriedly lied.

Shen Sangyu stood up, his expression was a little concerned, "If you don't feel well, you should go to see Langzhong, it just so happens that I know a good doctor, Xiu'er, you lead Juan Niang to go, I'll go to Madame myself." ”

Seeing that Shen Sangyu was about to go out, Juan Niang hurriedly wanted to stop her, "The old slave is fine, thank you for your concern, the old slave should take a trip for the second miss, and the second miss can also rest for a while." ”

In his tone, he was full of self-friendliness for Shen Sangyu.

If it is heard by someone who does not know, it will probably think that Juan Niang is a gentle and careful maid, thinking about the master of the family everywhere.

But Shen Sangyu knew the reason.

Blocking her from going to Wei is just trying to delay time so that Wei can come up with a countermeasure.

After all, that unparalleled black pearl has been replaced by Wei's pawn and replaced with gold.

Now, just lie on your own bank account!

Where did Wei come from to conjure up the exact same black pearl?

Don't you have to hurry up and think about it?

Shen Sangyu thought about it, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, and he didn't expose it, "Okay, it just so happens that I'm a little sleepy, so please help me run for Juanniang." ”

"It's not troublesome, the old slave was supposed to serve the second young lady. Juan Niang said.

After speaking, he hurriedly ran out of Yingyue Pavilion and went directly to the Wei family.

When he was out of breath and found Wei who was drinking morning tea, he explained the ins and outs, and Wei was so shocked that he didn't hold the tea cup in his hand, and the hot tea spilled all over.

Wei Shi was burned and frowned, and a large area of snow-white skin turned crimson.

But he didn't care about it, he hurriedly stood up and asked, "What are you talking about, Shen Sangyu wants that black pearl?"

"Yes," Juan Niang cried with a sad face, "The second lady said, you can't go with empty hands like this, the queen said before that she wanted the black pearl, and it just so happened that she had it, so she wanted to send it." ”

After a pause, he asked, "What should I do, madam, that black pearl has already been taken away by us!"

"This dead girl, sooner rather than later, but at this time!" Wei was so angry that his teeth itched, "Where am I going to get her back now?"

"But the second lady said that you have to take the black pearl to go to the palace, if you insist on not giving it, Madame, she may rely on you for this matter, only that you are unwilling to save the old lady. Juan Niang said.

Wei shook his head and was upset about this matter.

She didn't doubt what Juan Niang said, after all, in her heart, Shen Sangyu would really do this.

"Right now, my plan has reached this point, and I can't let Shen Sangyu stir it up for me. Wei said through gritted teeth.

But if you want this plan to go smoothly, you have to take out the Black Pearl.

"You go to the pawnshop now and redeem that black pearl, move quickly, before Shen Sangyu comes to me to urge. Wei arranged.

Seeing that Juan Niang walked to the door, she told again, "You go in a carriage, don't be seen." ”

"The old slave knows, please rest assured. Juan Niang nodded towards Wei.

After Juan Niang went out, Wei was not idle, and began to rummage through the cabinets in the house.

I collected the silver tickets and title deeds that I secretly hidden, and roughly estimated the price.

None of these things combined were worth as much as the black pearl.

But if you sell your own face again, you should barely be able to resist it, right?

The more I thought about it, the more irritated I became.

Originally, she could have spent a penny, and only relied on Shen Sangyu's dowry to settle all obstacles.

But Shen Sangyu wanted to promise the queen what black pearls, so she could only fill in her own family wealth first.

But think about it again, when Shen Sangyu dies by then, the money will still be back in his hands, but it is just silver with a few black pearls, and it is still cost-effective.

In the end, it is necessary to solve the major problem in the heart, and it does not hurt to bleed.

Thinking about it, Wei's mood was much lighter.

However, this light-hearted mood did not last long.

After half a pillar of incense, Juan Niang returned to Wei with a disgraced face, her feet were unsteady, and when she saw Wei, she fell directly to the ground.

"What's the matter with you, you become a soft-footed shrimp after a trip, something?" Wei stretched out his hand and urged.

Juan Niang slowly raised her head, her voice trembling violently, "Madam...... The black pearl, no ...... It's gone!"

Hearing this, Wei Shi was also frightened, "It's gone? What do you mean it's gone? Didn't I tell you to give it to the pawnshop, how could it be gone!"

"The old slave went to the pawnshop and asked, and the pawnshop shopkeeper said that not long after the black pearl was sent, it was taken care of, and it was bought at ten times the price......

The price of that black pearl pawn is 100,000 taels of silver, and if it is ten times as much, it is 1 million taels of silver!

You must know that Shen Sangyu's dowry added up to only five million taels of silver.

That alone cost the man a fifth of the price.

Wei Shi gasped in shock, "That black pearl is so valuable?!"

"Madam, where is the time to take care of the price of the black pearl now," Juan Niang couldn't help laughing, "Let's think about how to get the black pearl back!"

was reminded by Juan Niang like this, Wei Shi put his mind back to the point.

How to get this black pearl back, that's what to think about now.

"When I pawned at that time, it was also a living deed of pawn, and I didn't say that I would not redeem it again, so if the pawnshop shopkeeper sold my things privately, I should let him redeem it for me!" Wei Shi hurriedly said.

Juan Niang nodded, "The old slave also said so, but the shopkeeper said that he took the money to pay off the debt, and now he is so poor that he only has a few hundred taels of silver left, and he is willing to redeem it for us, but we have to wait until we have enough money." ”

When you will get enough money, it's hard to say.

But Wei urgently needs to get the black pearl right now.

After scolding angrily in his heart for a few words, he looked at Juan Niang again, "Who is the person who bought the black pearl?"

The old slave asked, it was an old man who lived in an alley and opened a medicine shop, and he was willing to sell it to us at the price of buying it back, but one million taels is not a small amount. ”

"One million taels, how can I raise it now!" Wei Shi was also so angry that his chest rose and fell violently.

When he was in a hurry, Shen Sangyu's crisp voice came from outside the courtyard again, "Madam, I'm here to get the black pearl!"

It was clearly a beautiful voice like a lark, which fell into Wei's ears, but it was like a urging sound, which made her eyes blacken......
