Pampered and fierce wife: Reborn daughter-in-law has a strategy
Chapter 38 Pawnshop
Li Xinran was huddled under the window, holding her breath and listening to the conversation between the two people inside the window.
"Check it out?"
"We found out that it was indeed two people, both of whom were injured. One of them was seriously injured and unconscious, and the other was seriously injured and even vomited blood when he fought with me."
"Where's Lu Banyi?"
"In the room, under their kang."
The two people in the room spoke Xirong dialect, but just like Xiao Yinchu, who has been at the border for a long time, understands Xirong dialect. For Li Xinran, who grew up in the border area, Xirong dialect is as familiar as his mother tongue.
"How's the kung fu?"
"Although I'm seriously injured, my internal strength is deep. I'm afraid we won't be able to do it alone."
There was no more talking in the room. After a while, a man's voice sounded.
"You fought with him today. They should know that they are being watched. You let Tartar keep an eye on them. When they are ready to leave, call your brothers on the road..." The man did not speak anymore, but he did not say anything. I mean, everyone who heard it understood.
Li Xinran raised the corners of her mouth slightly and planned to continue eavesdropping, but her sensitive ears suddenly heard the sound of slightly approaching footsteps.She held her breath and concentrated, huddled motionless in the darkness.
When she was at the border, she once learned to hold her breath from a veteran reconnaissance veteran, which was a life-saving skill during reconnaissance.
Realizing that the footsteps were getting closer, Li Xinran lowered his eyes and stopped staring. Instead, he tried his best to disguise himself as a stone.
The footsteps stopped at the door, and Li Xinran could feel a gaze directed towards him. Although he did not stare at him accurately, the sharp gaze kept scanning in his direction.
Li Xinran held her breath, did not move, did not breathe, and her body did not rise and fall, pretending that she was just a stone.
"Ta Ta, what's wrong?" A voice came from the room. Ta Ta took a deep look into the darkness, then lifted his legs and went in.
Li Xinran exhaled slowly. Although she didn't see who that person was, she felt particularly dangerous.
Without staying too much, Li Xinran jumped up and left the courtyard.
In the room, Tartar listened to Ada's arrangements in front of him expressionlessly, without saying a word about his feelings just now.Ada prides herself on being suspicious of things that she is not aware of.
Tartar has been scolded many times and will not do it again.
Like a light elf in the night, Li Xinran quietly climbed over the roofs and returned to her aunt's home.
The people in the big house are not sure whether they are collaborators, but for now they can catch all the spies hiding in Jingchen Village.
When he went back and told Xiao Yinchu about the matter, Xiao Yinchu frowned: "I have never heard of this person named Ta Ta, but according to you, he may be a powerful enemy in the future."
Li Xinran nodded heavily, but added in her heart: "I've never heard of it since then."
But now is not the time to dwell on such things. Li Xinran and the others guessed right. This is also a relatively important place for Ada and the others. They will not kill unless it is absolutely necessary.
The two parties who did not want to touch the village unanimously decided to fight on the outskirts.
Knowing that there was a master here that Li Xinran praised as a master, Xiao Yinchu acted much more cautiously.
After all, even if Li Xinran is not a top expert, his skills are good, not to mention that he has more than ten years of experience in the border battlefield of life and death.
Aunt Liu's family came back on the third day. At that time, Xiao Yinchu asked Aunt Liu to help her go to the town to inquire about the horse and carriage shop and her servants, and gave Aunt Liu a jade ring in her hand. Please Aunt Liu helped them get some money back.
As for whether Aunt Liu would cheat them, to be exaggerated, they didn't care at all about these jewelry.Li Xinran was going to Shangxiang for fun and would not bring anything precious and precious to him. The same was true for Xiao Yinchu. He was going back to the border and it was impossible for him to bring anything priceless.
Would you get angry because someone stole five pennies from the bracelet you bought for ten pennies?
Aunt Liu's family came back and brought news about the town's carriage and horse racing business to Xiao Yinchu. A carriage was rented for [-] taels a day, with a deposit of [-] taels. They bought it with [-] taels of silver and gave them three days of fodder.
Then Aunt Liu said calmly: "Master, you, your ring." She stretched out her hand towards Xiao Yinchu, and a green ring lay quietly in the rough and dark palm of the aunt's hand.
Xiao Yinchu raised his eyebrows slightly: "What? Didn't you think you were going out?"
"No, it's not..."
"I want to come personally to discuss business with the young master."
A powerful voice came from outside. Xiao Yinchu turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in silk clothes walking in leading a group of tall and rough servants.The moment he saw Xiao Yinchu, the middle-aged man's face immediately became flattering: "It's better to hear a hundred times than to see him once. The young master's figure is really shocking."
Xiao Yinchu didn't speak, let alone smile. He looked the middle-aged man up and down, turned around and took back the ring from Aunt Liu's hand, and then said with a smile: "Aunt Liu, please help me pour two bowls of tea. We have guests. When you come to visit, of course you have to entertain me.”
Aunt Liu said "Hey", turned around and took her son out.
"Don't worry, boil the water slowly." Xiao Yinchu said with a smile.
Turning his head, his smile fell, Xiao Yinchu turned around and sat in the main seat. After raising his eyes, he was so full of momentum that the middle-aged man's hair stood on end for a moment. He was once again glad that he had just brought someone here and had not followed this person. People are torn apart.
The middle-aged man smiled flatteringly and stepped forward to greet him: "Greetings, sir," he cupped his hands, "My surname is Jiang, and I am the shopkeeper of Wanli Pawnshop, the largest pawnshop in Ancheng."
Xiao Yinchu raised his eyelids and groaned in his nose: "Sit down." He looked like a playboy with his eyes raised above his head.
Shopkeeper Jiang didn't dare to take Qiao, so he smiled and sat down, but he only dared to sit on a stool.
"Tell me, what kind of business is this?" Xiao Yin and Chu Erlang raised their legs and said in a long voice.
"Back to the young master, I see that the ring on the young master's hand is extraordinary. The old woman did not know the goods and set the price at will. I don't want the young master to suffer a loss, so I came here to negotiate the price with the young master in person." Shopkeeper Jiang said with a flattering smile.
"That sounds nice. I'm afraid Shopkeeper Jiang doesn't think so." Xiao Yinchu sneered, a pair of longan eyes particularly attractive, "I brought so many strong young men here just to confirm what Mrs. Liu said. Is it true that the noble person is?"
In order to prevent people in the pawn shop from bullying good and fearing evil, Xiao Yinchu informed Aunt Liu of the approximate value of the ring before she left, and told Aunt Liu that if the waiter in the pawn shop was a villain, Aunt Liu should say Something scares them.One of the sentences is: "This finger ring belongs to a nobleman. This nobleman is the child of a high official in Kyoto. If you dare to mess around, be careful that the nobleman in Kyoto will punish you!"
"Check it out?"
"We found out that it was indeed two people, both of whom were injured. One of them was seriously injured and unconscious, and the other was seriously injured and even vomited blood when he fought with me."
