Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Purse Is Lost
Wei Jin put away the blood jade and pawn ticket, raised his head and stared at him with deep eyes: "I'm leaving." He lowered his head and coughed twice, passing by Yu Dequan's side and walking out.
Yu Dequan personally sent him out, and when he saw his slow pace, he stared at his back and suddenly asked, "How ...... your body?" ”
Wei Jin didn't look back, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "I can't die yet." As he passed the counter again, he glanced at the man who was trembling as if he had done something wrong, and walked away gracefully and slowly.
After walking far away from the pawnshop, I made sure that no one was following, and immediately rushed to the small stall selling wontons.
I saw that Tian Ruyue and Tian Duocai were still not satisfied after eating a bowl of wontons, and the two of them were still holding buns in their hands, waiting in front of the shop selling baked cakes while eating.
Wei Jin muttered speechlessly: "It's really edible." There was a hint of a smile in his eyes that he didn't even notice.
Tian Ruyue was eating a black boy in a vegetable basket in one hand and a meat bun in the other, and her lips were stained with a layer of shiny oil.
In the past, she never ate meat buns, and she only ate vegetarian stuffing, which was only one-third the size of her hand.
She dislikes the meat buns being too greasy, and this time she thinks the meat buns are delicious!
I can't stop eating, and I want to buy ...... again after eating.
Tian Duocai held a meat bun in his left and right hands, took a bite on the left and a bite on the right, but his hungry wolf-like eyes stared at the unbaked plum dried vegetables and meat stuffed pancakes.
The sisters and brothers only have food, food, and delicious food in their eyes! How can there be Wei Jin?
Wei Jin deliberately passed back and forth in front of the two of them twice, but he couldn't take their eyes off the baked cake for half a minute......
The old woman who sold the baked cakes gave him a wary look.
Wei Jin walked away silently, and met the two maids in a hurry, and couldn't help but take a second look.
The two maids passed behind the siblings and quarreled while talking.
"Miss's purse is lost, if you can't find it today, we both have to be punished."
"You lost Miss's purse, why bothered me!"
“…… How can you do that? The two maids quarreled a few words and shirked each other's responsibilities, and couldn't help crying at the thought of what kind of punishment they would receive if they couldn't find their purse.
The sister and brother glanced back at the backs of the two maids at the same time, and then turned back and continued to stare at the unbaked baked cakes.
Tian Ruyue muttered: "I don't know how much silver was lost in the purse." "Look, the two maids were scared and cried.
The old woman who sold the baked cakes suddenly accosted: "You are wrong, what they are nervous about is not the silver but the purse." ”
"Huh?" Tian Ruyue looked at the old woman with a puzzled face.
The old woman continued to explain: "Don't you see that those two maids are dressed better than the average young lady from a big family? The physiognomy is also first-class. can afford to use this kind of maid, the identity of the young lady must be extraordinary, where does it matter how many taels of silver are lost? Their young lady is anxious about the purse, and such private things will be embroidered with names, in case they are picked up by a man with bad intentions and make a big fuss, this young lady's reputation is afraid that it will ......be ruined. ”
Tian Ruyue: "......" purse is more important than silver, and this era is too cruel to women!
Seeing Tian Ruyue's bewildered look, the old woman couldn't help but quip: "Don't be delusional about you young man, even if you pick up the purse, the young lady will not marry you, and will only be sent to the official for investigation by her servant." ”
Tian Ruyue's face darkened: "...... Auntie, you have an eye disease and may need to find a doctor to take a look. ”
The old woman was not angry, but laughed: "The young man is quite kind, and I can't look for a doctor with dizzy eyes." ”
Tian Ruyue: "......" old eyes are dizzy, can you still see the appearance of those two maids?
"Poofhahahaha!" Tian Duocai burst out laughing: "This is my third sister, she is not a man, although she is black and not slippery, but she is wearing women's clothes." ”
Tian Ruyue bent her fingers and knocked on his head: "Don't laugh!" I'm your sister, I'm seen as a man, you have a lot of face, don't you?! Don't buy the pancakes, let's go home now! ”
Tian Duocai immediately begged for mercy.
The old woman opened her eyes wide and looked at Tian Ruyue carefully, and pretended to suddenly realize: "The old body and old eyes are dizzy, don't be angry, girl." Then he sent an extra biscuit.
Tian Ruyue immediately said that she was not angry! happily took the five baked cakes handed over by the old woman, plus one for free, and said 'thank you'.
Wei Jin who saw this scene: "......"
Looking at Tian Ruyue again, if you change your hair bun and clothes and put on men's clothes, you will definitely be a proper man.
Scold! I'm afraid this ugly girl will want to marry all her life.
Tian Ruyue gave Tian Duocai two baked cakes, but advised: "You are only allowed to eat one, and one will eat on the way back." If you break your stomach, I don't have the money to help you find a doctor. ”
Tian Duocai nodded again and again.
Tian Ruyue took out the black boy from the vegetable basket and put it in the bag and hung it on her chest, but put the baked cake wrapped in oiled paper into the vegetable basket and carried it.
After eating a bowl of wontons and two steamed buns, Tian Duocai, who already had to support it, was not as greedy as before, took a small bite and chewed it and suddenly asked, "Third sister, where are we going now?" ”
Tian Ruyue didn't answer because she was pondering.
She wanted to go to the grain and oil shop to buy some rice and flour and grain and oil, but she was found by Tian's mother, how should she explain?
Not to mention that if you buy rice noodles, you have to buy pots and pans!
This is a large amount of expenses, how to explain the origin of the money to Tian's mother?
She can fully imagine that it is definitely the whole family who will go into battle to ask three sessions!
If she handed over the silver, it would be fine, but if she didn't hand it over, the Qian family would definitely wronged her for stealing someone's money, and the whole village knew that it would attract the suspicion of the handsome guy's enemy ...... then!
Don't buy anything at all!
When you are poor, you want to make money, buy what you want, and eat what you want. 、
Now I really have money, but I can't use it! I have to continue to pretend to be poor and live a hard life!
Tian Ruyue looked at the shops on both sides unhappily and cried with a sad face.
You can't spend money if you have money!
Make no mistake!!
Tian Duocai saw her suddenly change her face, and asked with a puzzled face: "Third sister, why are you unhappy?" Suddenly realized: "Oh~~, you don't know the way home, right?" Stretched out his hand and patted his chest: "It's okay, I know the road!" ”
Tian Ruyue deliberately teased him: "I know the road, I'm unhappy because the money is spent." ”
Tian Duocai didn't care: "It's good to spend it, otherwise you will be discovered by your father and mother when you go back, and it will all be taken away by your grandmother when the time comes." ”
Tian Ruyue looked at him with a resentful expression: "You don't understand. ”
Looking up at the shops on both sides of the street, there were cloth villages, and she really wanted to go in and make dozens of new clothes.
There is a jewelry shop, and she really wants to rush in and buy a few pieces of jewelry that she likes to wear and match clothes.
But now she can't do anything, she can only watch.
