Chapter 3: Treasure Pavilion

When the shopkeeper behind the counter heard this, he stopped fiddling with the abacus and walked to the lobby of the pawnshop. "Girl, although our Xianbao Pavilion is not as good as the pawnshops in the capital, it is the best pawnshop in this town, do you have anything that I can't afford?"

I saw the shopkeeper snort coldly, and the young man hurriedly echoed, "That's it, let's go, don't delay our business." ”

As he spoke, he rushed Wei Xin'er out, and happened to meet Wei Lianxin who came to the pawnshop. "Yo, who should I have told someone to rush outside, it turned out to be Xin'er! Why, it's a thing! ”

This Wei Lianxin's generation in the village is supposed to be Wei Xin'er's cousin, she is the eldest grade, about the same age as Second Aunt Zhao, usually the two of them love to talk about the East and West families, and many of Zhao Second Aunt Zhao's bad ideas were also learned from Wei Lianxin.

Wei Xin'er turned her head away, ignoring Wei Lianxin, and the shopkeeper stepped forward, "Sister Wei, but you sent you a porcelain bowl again?" ”

Wei Lianxin has an earthen kiln at home, her husband burns the kiln at home, and she glazes it at home, and she even has a skill, and the sketched paintings are particularly good-looking, but there are only a few good-looking ones a month, and they are sent to the shops in the town to pawn for one or two dollars.

"Yes, yes, this month's condition is very good, and I don't dare to give it to the shopkeeper if it's not good!" As he spoke, he took out a package from his chest, holding two porcelain cups with blue glaze on the inside and three layers outside, which looked quite cute, but it was not exquisite.

The shopkeeper pretended to take a closer look, "Yo, this month's workmanship has improved a lot, hurry up, go to the account room to get the silver, this is called a good thing!" ”

Wei Lianxin was of course overjoyed when she heard this, and looked at Wei Xin'er again, "Of course you have to collect some good things, the shopkeeper, don't collect some poor and sour people's tattered things, and dirty your own shop." ”

Wei Xin'er naturally knew that this was for herself, smiled, and took out two red ginseng from the back basket, "Alas, I can't help the shopkeeper if I don't want it, then I have to go to another house to ask, and it is said that the shopkeeper of Xianbao Pavilion is a master who knows the goods, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that!" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he looked into Wei Xin'er's hand, saw the two red ginseng, and was not surprised, and almost threw away Wei Lianxin's small porcelain cup in his hand, but fortunately Wei Lianxin caught it herself. "Y-Where did you get this red ginseng?" The shopkeeper was so surprised that he couldn't say anything.

"I dug it myself in the back mountain, you don't want me to sell it to others." Wei Xin'er was about to leave, but was stopped by the shopkeeper.

"Girl, I was so offended just now, dare to ask if you can let me see this red ginseng?" The shopkeeper respectfully gave Wei Xin'er a bow, which was regarded as an apology, and Wei Xin'er handed him the red ginseng.

The shopkeeper is a well-informed person, and he was naturally surprised when he saw this red ginseng, "The last time I saw it was when I was a child, my father spent a lot of money to buy red ginseng for my grandfather's body, but I didn't expect to let me touch it now." ”

Wei Xin'er thought that she wouldn't be so lucky, she would go up the mountain to collect medicine for her mother and meet this rare red ginseng. If you think about it carefully, this red ginseng is buried deep in the ground, and there are ordinary flowers and grasses growing on it, and the farmers are not surprised when they see it, if they don't want to smell the red flowers today, they will naturally not be able to dig up this red ginseng.

"Girl, how many ginseng do you have, I will collect them for you, how about 50 taels of silver for one ginseng?"

"50 taels? - "I was surprised that it was not Wei Xin'er, but Wei Lianxin, who had worked hard for a month to make two small porcelain cups, but one or two taels of silver, Wei Xin'er was holding such a Laoshizi thing, and it was fifty taels each.

"Girl, don't be too little, we are also a small shop, if this is in the capital, there must be no price, but I also accept it sincerely, you can sell it to me, I will give you a silver ticket on the spot."

Wei Xin'er was also taken aback, you must know that in ancient times, especially in a poor place like Weijia Village, five taels of silver was enough to eat for a year, let alone fifty taels!

Wei Xin'er naturally agreed, and gave the six red ginseng in the basket to the shopkeeper's three, the shopkeeper was not enough, Wei Xin'er hurriedly refused, and the remaining red ginseng was for the mother's body, so naturally it could not be sold.

She took a silver ticket of one hundred and fifty taels, and left Xianbao Pavilion happily, leaving Wei Lianxin there to see - this little hoof, if she can't be cured, she can't be cured!

Thinking about it, he hurried back to Weijia Village, ready to discuss countermeasures with Second Aunt Zhao.

Here, Wei Xin'er bought a stove for boiling medicine, new clothes and shoes for her mother, as well as donkey meat and pig's head meat, and rushed home.

When I went back, I quickly boiled medicine for my mother and a pot of red ginseng soup. When the donkey meat was handed to the little sister, the little sister asked her sister in disbelief, "Sister, is this meat?" In a trance, I remembered that my little sister had never eaten meat since she was born.

"Yes, good, eat, yes! Let's eat meat every day from now on! Wei Xin'er looked at her little sister's happy appearance, and her eyes were moist.

The little sister grabbed the donkey meat and burned it to feast, and Wei Xin'er, who saw it, was hungry herself, so she hurriedly handed one to her mother and ate it herself. Wei Wenshi was not surprised to see the new clothes and shoes, as well as the food, and the red ginseng soup at the bedside.

"Xin'er, these... Where did all this come from? ”

"Mother, don't worry, I bought these things, and now we have money, don't be afraid, I will take you and my little sister to live a good life!" Wei Wenshi nodded hurriedly after listening to Xin'er's words.

Second Aunt Zhao, who was resting outside the door, also overheard this corner, where did this lady get the money? Little girl, let's see how we fix you!
