Chapter 24: Cheating on the daughter-in-law
After thinking about being a "pawn" for so long, and having seen it, Li Zhixian waved his hand casually and sent the whole family of ruffians to the beheading table.
Li Yu felt that if he left.....
The fate of his son Li Xian will definitely not be too good!
I hope that I have relied on my status as a "pawn" of the yamen to make money for many years.
Get these things!
I can sell it as soon as possible for a hundred taels of silver.
The money has been paid off, and it is better for this Qingshui Town to leave early.
The immortals who can dance the great gods, and the places where the evil Taoist priests are attracted are destined not to be peaceful.
As for what "adventures" there are, it's not something that a little person like him can peep into.
Just when Li Yu was worried.
The four figures in Fang City attracted his attention.
There were two people in front of him, a young man wearing a satin cloth coat, with a simple appearance and a strong figure.
He was followed by a young girl.
The girl was dressed in pale pink satin, her demeanor was very restrained, her smile was a little stiff, and her face would show a shy blush from time to time.
As a "pawn" of the Yamen of Qingshui Town, Li Yu has naturally seen a lot of people and things.
The identity of this young girl has already been guessed in his heart.
I saw a middle-aged man behind the young man, and a woman who kept a certain distance from the man on the side.
At this time, the speculation in Li Yu's heart increased a little more.
At first glance, this situation is the sign that the matchmaker came out to talk about the dowry.
Thinking of this, Li Yu took the initiative to beckon forward:
"Guest, why don't you come and have a look at me?
It just opened today, so you might be able to find something you'll be happy with. ”
Wu paused with his footsteps, looked at the shops in Fang City on the side, and was suddenly quite surprised, how could he meet Li Yu here?
Although it was a coincidence to meet Li Yu by chance, Wu Yong was not worried, and it was the Faxin Daoist who had been in contact with the other party before.
Not what he is now.
Aunt Yun looked at the shop and the objects on the table, and was about to speak.
Wu Xiangui on the side stretched out his hand and stopped:
"Aunt Yun wants me to see, you and Chun'e should wait here for a while.
How about Wu Yong and I take a look? ”
Aunt Yun on the side heard this, and immediately realized something.
It is estimated that this Wu Xiangui thinks that the four of them will go together, and in the end, it will inevitably be reduced to letting Chun'e choose by herself.
This also loses the meaning of gift-giving.
It seems that the father and son want to surprise Chun'e.
"That's okay, Chun'e and I are waiting for you here~"
Aunt Yun said with an expression on her face that I knew everything, and pulled Chun'e behind her.
Wu Xiangui dragged Wu Yong without talking nonsense, and went straight to the front of the shop:
"Boss, what's the price of your stuff here?"
When Li Yu saw the main owner coming to the door, he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart:
"This is his first business, and if he does it well, he may be able to earn a hundred taels of silver today.
Ahem~
Distinguished guests, you can look at it yourself.
But the girl behind you is really handsome, and I feel that her wrist is empty, and I am sure she will be happy if there is any such thing as a 'bracelet'! ”
Li Yu began to pretend to introduce it.
Since being a "pawn", I have also met some down-and-out rich ladies when collecting money.
In order to survive, some of them mortgaged the exquisite jade bracelets to themselves.
Thinking about these things, it shouldn't be a problem to be worth fifty or sixty taels of silver.
Thinking of this, Li Yu casually opened the box on one side, and a pair of jade bracelets showed a moist blue-green inside.
Even Wu Yong, who doesn't understand the market on the side, can recognize the preciousness of this thing.
Wu Yonggang wanted to say something, but was stopped by Wu Xiangui:
"Merchant, your bracelet is not very good, this thing is good, how much do you think?"
Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and saw a wooden box open in the other party's hand.
Inside the box was a reddish bead.
The corners of Li Yu's mouth twitched, could it be that the middle-aged man in front of him had no background, and he saw the most special guy among all his objects at a glance.
This bead with a red body is a Liang official who was beheaded in the Yamen of Qingshui Town more than ten years ago.
The identity of the official is unknown, but the red beads are the things inlaid on the black gauze hat on the other party's head.
Ask the post!
Li Yu was arranged to find a "pit" to bury the body of this official, but he was reluctant to let this thing go into the ground with the dead, so he quietly detained it.
"Ahem! It's a rare commodity, and if you want it, it's at least three hundred taels of silver. ”
Li Yu didn't know the specific price in his heart, so he had to say a rough idea, and it would be good to bargain when the time came.
However, Wu Xiangui immediately slapped the table and said:
"Deal! As you said, I will give you three hundred taels of these red beads. ”
Li Yu's face was happy, it was really a deal, the next one hundred taels had fallen, as for the other party's promise, it was possible that Li Yu didn't think about it at all.
At that time, the Liang official who died in the yamen of Qingshui Town was definitely not a big man, and the things on his body had already been stripped off by someone except for this black gauze hat, if this thing was really worth a thousand gold, how could it be his turn?
"Don't worry, this thing is satisfactory to you, I don't know if it's for silver? Or a silver ticket? ”
Li Yu asked with a smile.
"Wait, do you think this thing is real or fake? Maybe I'll need to figure it out.
I'll go to the "pawnshop" near you and ask, and if it's true, I'll give you a silver ticket. ”
Li Yu looked a little hesitant when he heard this, after all, the belongings in his store were worth a lot of money, and he couldn't get out of it alone.
But I saw that the middle-aged man in front of him had a pure gold bracelet on his wrist under the burlap clothes.
The worries in his heart were also dispelled a lot, thinking that he was a rich man, and the pawnshop was not far from him.
These people with a lot of money are still as suspicious as ever
"Okay, then hurry up, you can rest assured, as long as you are a knowledgeable person, you know what I gave you, and there is no doubt that it is genuine!"
Wu Xiangui nodded with a smile.
Holding the wooden box in his hand, he then took Wu Yong's hand and walked around to the pawnshop on the other side.
Aunt Yun saw Wu Xiangui look inside the shop, then turned around and went to the pawnshop, and pinched the girl's palm with some feeling:
"Chun'e, if you want me to say that the father and son of the Wu family are really willing to spend money, they all went to the pawnshop and wanted to come to choose the objects for you, not to mention dozens of taels of silver.
I'm afraid this family business can be done. ”
Chun'e lowered her head writhingly, and the flush on her cheeks became more and more obvious.
It's about a cup of tea.
Li Yu frowned, why didn't this old man and young come out now?
He looked at the woman and girl who were still standing not far from the shop and had not left, and he was a little relieved.
About another cup of tea passed.
On the other side of Fang City, Li Xian hurriedly ran over.
But he saw his dad packing up his belongings from afar.
Seeing that his son was coming, Li Yu stopped his movements and pointed to the shop for Li Xian to take care of.
Then he ran to the pawnshop on the other side of the street.
After a few breaths, Li Yu had a gloomy face and walked quickly in front of Chun'e and Aunt Yun:
"You two are not allowed anywhere now!
Just now your father-in-law took my precious stone worth three hundred taels of silver! ”
