Saying that, Wang Xiucai threw down the salute again, waved his sleeves and walked into the bedroom quickly, and came out with a pen and paper in his hand. I raised my sleeves and sharpened my pen, and in a short time I was finished writing a hundred-word letter.

Wang Xiucai pushed the letter out, and said angrily: "This is a retired book, from now on you go back to your mother's house, I will go my way!" ”

slapped the board, picked up the salute and left without looking back.

Huang Yan picked up the resignation book on the table with trembling hands, and the tears in the corners of her eyes couldn't help but stay.

In the middle of the room, there was a mournful cry.

Smack!

At the door, a child who was collecting firewood and returning home heard the crying of his mother in the house, and immediately threw down the firewood on his back, ran quickly towards the house, and pushed open the door.

But I saw a rope hanging from the beam in the house, and Huang Yan had a stool at her feet, as if she was going to die.

Wang Ran immediately rushed forward and hugged his mother's thigh: "Mother! What are you going to do, don't you want to? ”

Seeing that his mother was about to die, eight-year-old Wang Ran suddenly shed tears of fear.

Huang Yan looked down at her child, and her determination to die suddenly dissipated.

If I die, what will I do? That negative man, I don't know where to go at this time, and then he will become alone.

As soon as she thought about this, Huang Yan finally gave up the idea of suicide.

walked down from the stool, gently hugged Wang Ran and comforted: "Ran'er, you will go back to your grandfather's house with me tomorrow!" ”

Although Wang Ran didn't know what was going on, seeing that his mother's mood seemed to have stabilized, he immediately nodded sensibly.

Wang Ran asked in a low voice, "Mother! Did Dad make you angry? ”

With tears in her eyes, Huang Yan choked up and replied: "Your father doesn't want us anymore, he's gone!" ”

Wang Ran immediately comforted Huang Yan: "Mother! Don't cry! Daddy is gone, and I'll take care of you! ”

Seeing that Wang Ran's little face was full of firmness and eagerness to comfort herself, Huang Yan finally burst into tears and smiled.

"Hmmm! You're so good! ”

......

Sunset and dusk.

Wang Xiucai carried the salute and walked for two hours wrapped in the night pearl to Hua'an County, which is the most prosperous place in Hua'an County.

This is the only place where there are relatively large pawnshops!

Wang Xiucai is not stupid, he knows that if it is a valuable thing like the night pearl, he must go to a larger and reputable pawnshop, and if it is too small, it will be over if it touches the black and eats the black.

He inquired all the way, and finally found a relatively large one in a prosperous area in the county where people are intertwined and traffic is busy.

Blessing shop! The plaque hanging in front of the door has four big characters written on it. This pawnshop is three stories high, the front is an eaves wall, and the other three sides are cut into clear water bricks, and the top is covered with moire green tiles.

This pawnshop is the property of the Liu family, the Liu family is one of the best businessmen in Hua'an County, and the reputation is relatively good.

As soon as Wang Xiucai walked in, he saw the words "Hua'an Tongwei" molded on the eaves of the entrance hall.

The first floor is large and is divided only into a customer's rest area and a pawn counter, and the second and third floors are supposed to be warehouses.

As soon as Wang Xiucai walked in, he was received by a staff member.

"If this guest wants to pawn or redeem items, he must first go to the number!" The staff looked polite.

Wang Xiucai looked around and found that there were dozens of people around, and he didn't dare to take out his things directly in public, in case he was targeted, it would be troublesome.

"I'm not right now, I'll talk about it later!" Wang Xiucai shook his head awkwardly at the staff, and found a chair in the rest area to sit down.

Wang Xiucai was panicked, he sat on the chair, looked at the people coming in and out, and found that the people who came in and out of here were all wearing brocade silk, thinking that the people in the county town were really different from his poor place. When he becomes the pearl of the night, he can live a prosperous and rich life, and then he will go back and let Huang Yan take a look. By the way, I also let the father-in-law who fell behind him every once in a while have long eyes.

Although he said in a fit of anger that he was going to take a break from Huang Yan, but it was also angry, Wang Xiucai was cowardly by nature, and after the year of standing, there was no achievement, although he repeatedly took the township test, but the total name fell to Sun Shan, and this year's township test was worse than one or two, after this year's exam, he didn't know where to hear, there is fraud every year in the township test, that is, some descendants of rich families pay some money to the top, but they have squeezed those who have reached the end of the test.

And this news also made Wang Xiucai even more angry, and he went to carefully verify the identities of the last few people on the list in the township test, and sure enough, he found that those people were all wealthy families.

Wang Xiucai had the heart to report it, but he also knew that his elbow couldn't be crooked on his thigh. Besides, he didn't have any actual evidence, and even if he reported it, no one would accept it.

After going back and forth, he also returned home in discouragement, and was abused by his father-in-law again.

He was dissatisfied, and later this dissatisfaction was gradually vented to Huang Yan.

However, because of timidity, he didn't dare to vent his dissatisfaction, and it wasn't until Wang Xiu picked up the night pearl that he finally dared to vent his dissatisfaction in his heart.

After so many years, it's time for my Wang Yushu to be transferred.

While sighing, he sat and waited, until the sky was getting dark and the last guest left, and Wang Xiucai had the courage to walk to the pawn counter.

Sitting at the counter was an old man in his sixties, with an abacus in his hand, busy recording the transaction volume of today's day.

"I'm going to be something!"

The old man raised his eyes and looked at Wang Xiucai, and said lightly: "What is the pawn, how much does it cost!" ”

Wang Xiucai hurriedly replied: "It's a bead!" ”

Then he carefully took out the night pearl from the package, held it in the palm of his hand, and handed it to the old man at the counter.

A bead that emitted a faint and beautiful fluorescence flashed in front of the old man at the counter, and then the bead was quickly taken back by Wang Xiucai.

Although he didn't look very carefully, the old man at the counter immediately confirmed that the bead in Wang Xiucai's hand was definitely not ordinary!

Immediately, the old man at the counter looked extremely respectful: "Guest, your item is very precious, for the sake of safety and your interests, we ask you to go to the second floor and let more professional personnel estimate it for you!" ”

"To the second floor?" Wang Xiucai was shocked, but at this moment he was thinking, the other party wouldn't be trying to eat black!

The old man at the counter looked at Wang Xiucai with a hesitant expression, and immediately penetrated his thoughts.

"Please rest assured, we are the most formal pawnshop in Hua'an County, and we will not covet your property, after all, you have also seen the strength of our pawnshop, although your bead is very extraordinary, but there are no less than ten such things in a year!"
