Chapter 3: Shyness in the Pocket
Su Wanniang was hungry, and when the quilt was warm, she gritted her teeth and got up and walked to the wardrobe.
The door of the dim room was closed, Su Wanniang opened the wardrobe and found something in the clothes in her memory.
The things in her hand were not heavy, Su Wanniang took a closer look.
A silver butterfly hairpin was held in her hand.
The Xu family lived a prosperous life, but they didn't have much money in deposit. The father-in-law Xu Liangpeng and the father-in-law Xu Xiuning are both scholars, so they spend a lot. Su Wanniang's jewelry is not much, because she is a scholarly family, it should be very simple to wear and wear.
In addition to the rings and earrings that accompanied Su Wanniang, when she returned to her parents' house this time, she also brought out such a silver hairpin. It can be seen how much I love this silver hairpin.
The butterfly hairpin was bought by Xu Xiuning after she got married, and the two had a good relationship and respected each other!
This time, in order to inquire about the news, Su Wanniang sold the gifts prepared for her by her in-laws, and also sold the silver bracelets and earrings on her hands. It's been good to survive to this day. No matter how difficult it was, she didn't take away the silver hairpin she hid.
The craftsmanship of the hairpin is a little rough, but the style is passable, and more importantly, it is made of solid sterling silver.
Su Wanniang made up her mind and put the silver hairpin in her sleeve.
The clothes here are of ordinary style, with a short wide-sleeved tunic with a placket, and long trousers or long skirts underneath. Ordinary people are naturally simple and light to wear, but if it is a lady or lady of a dignitary, it will be much more cumbersome.
In memory, this country is called Tianchu!
The predecessor was a person who didn't like to go out and didn't know much about the surrounding situation. belongs to the kind of door that does not go out of the door, so that it is difficult for Su Wanniang to know the price.
Fortunately, I pawned silver bracelets in Anding County before, and I know a little about the price of silver jewelry.
Regarding the prices of things in various places in the Chu Dynasty this day, she is just a smear, and she doesn't know anything.
Su Wanniang sighed, closed the cabinet door, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, looking at the child on the bed blankly.
I have a body of medical skills, but I have nowhere to show it!
What kind of curing and saving people, I'm afraid that no one will believe her if she says it. Su Wanniang's body is only nineteen years old, too young, and she is still a girl, no one will believe her ability.
If you want to rely on medical skills to survive, you can be regarded as strangled in the cradle.
Cooking?
Su Wanniang frowned, she was a 9-to-5 doctor, and she usually ate in the hospital cafeteria. In addition, she was originally a lonely orphan, and there was no one at home, so she rarely went home to cook by herself.
Selling recipes and making food is unreliable!
This article was immediately denied by Su Wanniang.
Thinking about it, Su Wanniang felt that she seemed to have come here, and she had no other ability except for her medical skills. It's a pity that medical skills can't be used casually! After all, no one believed it.
Touching under the pillow, sure enough, Su Wanniang found a money bag.
In the indigo purse, the bell sounded.
Su Wanniang opened the money bag and took a look, and she understood it at a glance. There are less than ten copper coins per piece. Each copper coin is a square hole, engraved with strange patterns, and the word Tianchu.
It's really shy in my pocket!
Su Wanniang stuffed the money bag into her sleeve and carefully calculated how to spend her life.
"Ahem......"
"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"
There was a sudden coughing sound, and the child on the bed suddenly coughed, and then coughed more and more. Xiao Douding's face was red with coughing.
Seeing this, Su Wanniang immediately reached out to pick him up, and put her hand on his chest to caress him lightly, so as to relieve the discomfort caused by the cough.
Xu Junhao woke up with an uncomfortable cough in his throat, felt picked up, and then opened his eyes and saw that it was his mother, he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately grinned.
Looking at the child's sunny and simple smile, Su Wanniang's heart seemed to be hit by something.
"Still uncomfortable? Still sleeping? Su Wanniang looked at the child and curled the corners of her lips.
In her opinion, the moment she saw the child, her heart was soft, maybe it was the memory of her predecessor, or maybe it was because she was not married and did not have a child in her thirties, so she was so gentle to the child.
Xu Junhao saw that his mother finally smiled at himself, shook his head, and his eyes were shining.
Su Wanniang looked happy and hugged him to put on his shoes.
"Then you can go out for a walk with your mother?" Su Wanniang coaxed the child and quickly put on some dirty cloth shoes for him. In my memory, the mother and son have been wearing a pair of shoes for almost a month.
It's been almost a month since the accident at my husband's house!
Xu Junhao didn't know that Su Wanniang was worried about life and wanted to go out to see the prices, but he only thought that his mother was lying down for a few days and wanted to go out for a walk.
Nodding, Xu Junhao didn't speak, but his eyes were smiling.
"Alright, let's go!" Thinking that she could get rid of the silver hairpin when she went out, Su Wanniang had the spirit. Although her head was still a little dizzy, she could still hold on.
Xu Junhao was also happy, he hadn't gone out so easily for a long time, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.
The mother and son walked out of the door, Su Wanniang closed the door, and took the lock hanging next to the small window to lock the door, and then took the child's hand and set off.
They live in the utility room behind the backyard, and when they come out of the house, it's the back door.
Su Wanniang casually stepped a vegetable basket and took Xu Junhao out of the back door, locked the door, and the mother and son walked happily towards the street.
The place where they are located is outside the county seat of Jiangling County, which is a small town called Shangqing Town. Su Wanniang's place of residence is in the town, and it is not far from the street.
There is only one pawnshop in Shangqing Town, and she used to work as a silver ring in order to pay the rent.
The antique streets, and the people coming and going on the streets, men, women and children wearing ancient costumes, all of which made Su Wanniang feel very strange. But she also knew that she couldn't look around, the ancients were reserved, and she had to lower her eyes.
According to her memory, Su Wanniang took Xu Junhao to a small shop. There was a flag hanging outside the door with a 'dang' written on it. On the wall on the side, a white circle was drawn, and a dang was also written inside. In addition, there are a few lines of words written on the wall: the god robe and costume are inappropriate, and the flag gong umbrella fan is inappropriate; The leather goods are not improper, and the low-tide hand decoration is improper.
On the black plaque on the top of the shop, the words 'Fuyuan Pawn' are written.
When Su Wanniang was not infected with the wind and cold before, she was a silver ring, and at that time, the pawnshop had a lot of buckles. It seems that the ring, when it died, only got a hundred copper coins.
pinched the silver hairpin in her sleeve, Su Wanniang had a plan in her heart.
The pawn shop, which is less than three meters wide, is very narrow, and when you walk in, you will see a tall counter with vertical partitions and an arched hole.
'Buckle'
At this hour, very few people came to the door, otherwise the inside would have already spoken.
Hearing the movement, a man with a beard and a monkey cheek about thirty or forty years old glanced out from the partition.
Without waiting for the man to speak, Su Wanniang took out the silver hairpin and put it on the counter according to the posture of the pawn before.
The eight-character bearded courteer immediately took the silver hairpin, and while looking at it carefully, he asked casually: "Dead or alive?" ”
Most of the people pawn jewelry, and there are also people who come to pawn clothes at pawnshops. Accustomed to doing this, the man looked at the silver hairpin and weighed it, and then looked at the color and craftsmanship of the silver hairpin. Finally, weigh the silver hairpin on a scale.
