On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

What Mrs. Cheng fears most now is the three words "not good".

Pressing his painful forehead, he almost couldn't hold back his anger: "What happened again!"

The old woman stepped forward quickly and said in a low voice, "Madam, my husband said that a pawnshop owner came to our house and said that someone stole something from our house, and he specially returned it."

The old woman's surname is Zou, and her husband is the head of the front yard, Manager Zou. She is an expert at getting news about the front yard. Since she is close to the people, some things, such as the whereabouts of Mr. Cheng and whether he is doing anything secretly outside, are all found out by Old Woman Zou.

Therefore, Mrs. Cheng valued her very much.

Hearing what she said at this time, I was confused.

"What's missing? What's missing from the mansion?"

Mrs. Cheng was puzzled. She knew what the things were, but what did it mean to lose them?

Could it be... Her heart ached. Could it be that her daughter took something out and lost it?

This was a huge amount, as it was more than 10,000 taels of silver. The boss of the family was still waiting for her to take the money back and send it to the cloth shop for circulation.

Thinking of this, he quickly followed Mrs. Zou to the door.

As they walked, he asked, "Did he say what happened? What about the master? Does he know nothing about this?"

"He didn't say anything. He said he would wait until the head of the family arrived before telling me. The master doesn't know. The master just went out."

Mrs. Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Have you invited them to the front hall?"

"No. I invited him in, but he refused and insisted on waiting at the door."

Mrs. Cheng's breath of relief suddenly rose again: "What? What's going on at the door?"

There is a busy street outside the Cheng family's house, and there are many shops around it. However, his business is much better than that of the Yuan family, so the house is bigger.

But they are still not qualified to have a mansion as big, quiet and well-located as the one that the officials hold.

At this time, there are many people walking on the street. If something happens, a large crowd will quickly gather to watch the fun.

Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but quicken her pace. Before she reached the door, she heard a commotion and saw many shadowy figures from afar.

Many merchants knew the owner of the pawnshop, Shen. He was young, good-looking, and knowledgeable. No matter what the item was, he could tell the ins and outs of it and the price he gave was absolutely fair.

Moreover, he has always been calm, never showing off, and never talking nonsense like a loudspeaker. This makes some people who are short of money and treat him as a family heirloom grateful and admire him very much.

So, as soon as he appeared here, several shop owners who were passing by or going home greeted him.

I have to be polite. When doing business, everyone has difficulties. What if you need to turn over funds one day? The interest rate in the money bank is too high, and some money banks simply cannot lend money.

The money from a money shop is just icing on the cake, rarely a life-saving help. But it is different with a pawnshop, as long as you have something in your hand, you can exchange it for some money.

"Manager Shen, what brings you here?"

"Manager Shen, nice to meet you. My house is just in front. Would you like to have a drink?"

Shopkeeper Shen nodded one by one and said, "Thank you. Let's do it another day. I have some things to deal with today."

As soon as they heard that there were some things to deal with, everyone's minds started working fast.

Where is this? The Cheng family!

What does Manager Shen do? Manager of a pawn shop.

He stood at the door of Cheng's house and said that he had something to do. What could it be?

There must be something wrong with Cheng’s Cloth Shop.

The Cheng couple were arrogant all year round. Whenever the government mobilized everyone to donate food and medicinal materials, their family was always the last to donate, and donated the least.

His character is really not good.

So everyone just stayed here and gathered in groups of three or four to chat.

Mr. Mu was indeed not at home. He was planning to go to the farm outside the city to sell something. Unexpectedly, his carriage broke down just as he reached the restaurant.

After repairing it for a long time without success, it was getting dark, so I had to come back and try again later.

When I saw so many people in front of my house from afar, I thought something had happened, so I quickly walked a few steps closer.

He didn't even notice that behind his broken-down carriage, there was another carriage slowly following, not too far away but not too close, and it took in all his miserable appearance.

Yan Ruyu took a sip of tea and felt that the fruity and floral aroma was a little weak. This recipe needed to be improved.

Huo Changhe lifted the carriage curtain: "Yu'er, look."

Yan Ruyu was very interested: "Is this the good show arranged by the prince?"

"It hasn't started yet." Huo Changhe chuckled, "The Cheng family must pay the price and feel the pain."

Mr. Cheng was a little confused when he saw so many people in front of his house, including Manager Shen.

"Shopkeeper Shen, what are you doing..."

"Master Cheng," Shopkeeper Shen's smile faded, "I finally waited for you. Something big happened in your family. Don't you know?"

Master Cheng was even more confused, and his throat couldn't help but roll twice: "Something big happened? What big thing? Shopkeeper Shen, please don't scare me."

At the same time, Mrs. Cheng also came out. The light from the lanterns in front of the door was dim, but several carriages had gathered there, especially the lantern on Manager Shen's carriage, which was as bright as day.

When she saw her husband, her heart suddenly sank.

"Master!" she shouted, "You are back. Come back and rest."

Before Mr. Cheng could reply, Manager Shen took two steps back and said politely, "Madam Cheng, I haven't made my point yet."

Madam Cheng forced a smile and said, "In that case, please ask Shopkeeper Shen to come in and talk with us."

Mr. Cheng also came back to his senses: "Yes, yes, let's go in and talk, Shopkeeper Shen, please."

Shopkeeper Shen shook his head: "Master Cheng, if you tell this matter, if there are any rumors in the future, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to you. I don't want any misunderstandings because of this matter, so I am waiting here."

Shopkeeper Shen smiled helplessly: "I am not afraid of this matter, it is nothing more than a pawnshop, but for Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng, I am afraid it is not good."

Master Cheng pursed his lips, feeling more and more unsure: "I wonder what exactly is Shopkeeper Shen referring to?"

Shopkeeper Shen looked back at the waiter beside him, and the waiter took out a box from the carriage.

The box was opened, and a dazzling array of light appeared.

Everyone couldn't help but marvel.

"what is this?"

"It looks good."

"Can someone who can make Shopkeeper Shen come to visit in person be a coward?"

"That's right."

"Could it be that the Cheng family sold some heirloom?"

The muscles on Mr. Cheng's face were stiff. He couldn't see clearly yet, but he could tell from the outline that they were two pieces of jewelry.

Moreover, he had just scolded his wife because of some pieces of jewelry, and these should be two of them.

Did they pawn the jewelry at Shopkeeper Shen’s shop?

It's just a pawn, what does it mean that Shopkeeper Shen took it back? And in front of so many people.

Mr. Cheng felt unhappy.

It is said that Manager Shen is steady and tight-lipped, what does this mean today?

"Manager Shen, what do you mean?"
