After the Hou family's mistress went crazy, she became the favorite of the entire capital.

Chapter 20 You pay me money

Shu Yan was stunned for a long time, "Did you drive the pilgrims here?"

She pushed He Wangzhou away and glanced at the table.

Good guy, there are all kinds of snacks on the table.

Clear water cake, apricot seed cake, sweet-scented osmanthus taro cake, eight-treasure lotus seed cake...

They are all cakes brought by pilgrims.

Shu Yan forgot to eat the piece of wick cake in his hand, "Pilgrims are here, is it really yours?"

He Wangzhou was like a child begging for reward, "From now on, if you want to eat snacks, just give me an order. Even if it's past the time for selling snacks, I can have someone make them for you alone."

Shu Yan didn't say anything, he just lowered his head and finished the snack in his hand. When He Wangzhou turned around to get the second piece of pastry, Shu Yan threw him down and grabbed his collar with a fierce expression.

"Why are the pastries from Xiangrenlai so expensive! Do you know how much money I have spent buying cakes from Xiangrenlai over the years! He Wangzhou, you are a bully! You bullied me before, and you bullied me last night! You are still bullying me now!"

After talking about it, she cried.

She cried so aggrievedly, aggrieved by losing the love of her brother, aggrieved by seeing her relatives unable to recognize each other, aggrieved by how painful it was last night!
He Wangzhou thought she was joking, but he didn't expect that the more she cried, the more violent she became.

He was at a loss. From the corner of his eye, he saw Xi'er at the door with a group of maids joining in the fun. He stood up again, hugged Shu Yan in his arms, and coaxed her in a good voice.

"I went to say hello, and I won't sell snacks to anyone in the General's Mansion from now on."

Shu Yan stopped crying.

"If you have any other requests, I'll do it for you."

Shu Yan moved but said nothing.

He Wangzhou wiped her tears, took her over to sit down, and handed her a piece of eight-treasure lotus seed cake.

She took it and stared at it for a long time, then suddenly asked him: "What other shops do you have?"

*
Stepping into the Treasure Pavilion again, Shu Yan felt extremely complicated.

No wonder He Wangzhou kept saying that day that he would give the Treasure Pavilion to himself as long as it made him happy.

Shu Yan's hands clenched into fists under his sleeves.

It turns out that Zhenbao Pavilion really belongs to him!

This bastard!
Shopkeeper Ma came out and said, "Young Master, Young Madam."

Shu Yan calmed down and suppressed the anger in her heart. She was still thinking about the total amount of money she had bought in the Treasure Pavilion over the years.

She wanted He Wangzhou to pay compensation!
Not even a penny less!
Shopkeeper Ma knew how to look at Shu Yan's face, so he immediately took out the new products that had just arrived in the past two days.

How could Shu Yan be in the mood to see this now? What a coincidence, she saw the jade Ruyi placed on the table out of the corner of her eye, and she froze.

"Why is this thing here?"

Shopkeeper Ma didn't change his expression, "The previous one was sold, and I asked someone to find another one."

Shu Yan ignored it, and after going over to take the thing in her hands and examine it carefully, she became more and more angry.

"This is the one I pawned!"

He Wangzhou just remembered this.

He only confessed to Shu Yan about Xiang Ke Lai and Zhen Bao Pavilion, and never mentioned the pawn shop at all.

If Shu Yan knew that He Wangzhou owned [-]% of the most profitable shop in the capital, that would be okay!
"Didn't I sell this to Lin Jin'an? Why did you pawn it?"

He Wangzhou's mind was racing so fast that he asked Shu Yan speechless.

"That may be my memory."

She put the things back angrily, and suddenly remembered to ask shopkeeper Ma, "How much money did you sell this thing for?"

Shopkeeper Ma immediately answered, "Two thousand, five hundred taels of silver."

Shu Yan's hands trembled and he almost dropped Yu Ruyi.

Damn it, she only paid 700 taels for the two items, but someone else changed hands and raised the price by another 500 taels.

Shu Yan suddenly felt that Aunt Liu still had some conscience, and she had only been greedy for more than [-] taels in these two years.

Speaking of this, Shu Yan felt heartache again.The items sold from the Shu family and copied from Aunt Liu's relatives' homes totaled only 3 taels of silver. The night before yesterday, He Wangzhou actually said that he had made the decision privately and donated 2 taels of silver. Only then did Shu Yan get angry and kick him out. , let him sleep outside all night.

Thinking that any item in his Zhenbao Pavilion could be sold for 500 taels, and He Wangzhou donated 3 taels of her [-] taels of silver before she could even warm it up.

Heartache!

It hurts so much that I don’t even want to live!
"Yan'er?"

Seeing that her expression was wrong, He Wangzhou became anxious.Shopkeeper Ma consciously took out the best old wild ginseng in the shop and told the young lady to put it under her tongue to nourish her Qi.

Shu Yan looked at this old ginseng who was bigger than her palm, "How much money is this?"

"Just for this quality, you can get it for thousands of taels of silver."

Another thousand taels!

Shu Yan's eyes turned red, and he was extremely chilled. When he spoke again, he didn't make a fuss, but choked and trembled.

"You pay me money."

"Pay it! I'll pay it all to you! Good words, can you please stop crying?"

He Wangzhou's heart was broken.

Shopkeeper Ma didn't say a word when he heard this.

The young madam is so capable. My boss has been wandering around for so many years. What troubles have I never seen before? Now he is being manipulated by a woman?

General's House.

Lin Zhongxuan first went to see his father Lin Yi, and finally practiced martial arts for half an hour. When he heard a servant coming to report that Lin Jinan was awake, he hurried back to change clothes and went to visit her with the snacks he bought.

The scratch on Lin Jinan's face has healed, and there's not even a mark left.Now he was leaning against the bed, so weak that he seemed about to fall down at any time.

Lin Zhongxuan felt very distressed and brought two more cushions to surround her.

"Why don't you take medicine?"

"Too bitter."

Lin Zhongxuan brought the medicine and the cakes.

"I went to Xiangke Lai to buy you some snacks. You used to eat them every day, but why haven't you shouted recently?"

Lin Jinan's eyes lit up and he stared at the snacks closely.

The Shu family is no better than the General's Mansion, and the snacks brought by pilgrims are too expensive. It's good that she can eat them two or three times a month. Who thought that Lin Jin'an could eat them every day?
Why!
She lowered her head, hiding the jealousy in her eyes.

"I'm sick and have no appetite."

Hearing this, Lin Zhongxuan took away the snacks. Lin Jinan watched eagerly, not wanting him to take them again.

Seeing her hesitation, Lin Zhongxuan frowned and said, "Sister, you have been able to survive no matter how many beatings you received in the past, but this time you have only been hungry for two days. Why are you so pretentious?"

Lin Jinan was horrified, fearing that Lin Zhongxuan would see something was wrong.

"Although mother beats you, doesn't she also acquiesce in my coming to bring you food? She is also doing it for your own good. When her anger subsides, you can just admit your mistake."

Seeing that she didn't speak again, Lin Zhongxuan just thought that his daughter was old and had his own worries. As an elder brother, he didn't ask much. He only told her not to forget to take the medicine, and then got up and left.

"Big brother."

Lin Jinan called him to stop.

Lin Zhongxuan laughed, "You used to call me brother, why are you calling me brother so formally today?"

Lin Jinxin jumped wildly for a while.

She gritted her teeth and said what she had planned for a long time.

"Brother, I came back from the dead once. I have forgotten many things in the past. I can't even learn the martial arts I learned over the years. Brother, can you teach me?"

Lin Zhongxuan was stunned, "What did you say?"

Lin Jinan had tears in his eyes, "I dare not tell my parents for fear of scaring them. Brother, can you teach me and make me become the Lin Jinan I was before?"
