The dark-bellied prime minister's cute wife

Chapter 136

"Let me ask you, is being in the same family really important? I know I'm stupid and I can't help him, but I don't like him being with others at all. Master said, the best love is a pair of people for a lifetime, Don’t all of you who are officials have to say that you have three wives and four concubines?” She hugged herself, the coarse sackcloth was on her body, her tender little face was slightly pale, and now Qiu Shuang was beating hard, She couldn't sleep well here every day. She always dreamed that Yan Ke found her, then married her, and finally didn't want her anymore. She wandered in those dreams and was anxious all day long.

"The right family does not refer to the real family, but more often refers to things such as etiquette, connotation, knowledge, and insight. The so-called ladylike air, gentleness and virtuousness mostly come from big families. That person is cultivated by countless brocade clothes, fine food, and the nobility of poetry collections and etiquette, so he is naturally different from ordinary people." He lowered his eyes, looked at this discouraged little girl, and suddenly smiled: " However, you are different."

"Me? How am I different? I'm not good-looking, I don't know how to compose poems, and I don't know how to cook delicious food." Only now did she realize that she was nothing without leaving the Misty Sect and those three senior brothers. In the prime minister's mansion, she also had to endure the days of fear and fear. She hated such days. She wanted a free life, but in the end she discovered that she had nothing.

"You are stupid. I have never seen a girl as stupid as you. Well, there was a silly girl before, but she is no longer my silly girl." A person changed, his silly girl, now she doesn't know what to do.

"Oh~ which girl do you like? In the palace...couldn't it be a maid? Otherwise, it's the lady of the prince and minister's family? Miss, I only know one, it can't be Tang Guogong Tang Yanran, the daughter of the family, right?" Tian Lanshan just guessed casually, she pointed at Longxuanshen, and smiled.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" He pinched Tian Lanshan's face, seeing her startled appearance, like an innocent kitten, it always makes people want to bully her.

"Hmph, you are blushing, what am I talking about? Oh, you have a pendant here, or I'll take it for money, we are penniless now, if this continues, we will starve to death, you If you really want this piece of jade, then you can redeem it when the time comes." She blinked, holding the jade in her hand, looking at the person lying on the bed with an innocent face.

"Take it. It's not something expensive. When you do it, remember to disguise it. Don't let people deceive you. Come here, and I will tell you." He waved his hand towards Tianlanshan, and taught her some things to do with others. A little trick for negotiating, Tian Lanshan just took the jade, wiped a handful of ashes on her face, changed her clothes into men's clothes, and hurried out.

A fat woman outside the door was chatting with her neighbor, she didn't know what they were talking about, Tian Lanshan also paid attention to it, only vaguely heard the word "stealer" or "thief", she didn't think much, went to the pawnshop with jade in her pocket , It was freezing cold at that time, her little face turned red from the cold as soon as she went out, the back of a luxuriously dressed figure flashed in front of Tianlanshan's eyes, she was a little startled when she looked at that figure, the coldness was like the first ray of winter wind Why does his back look a little like Xiangye's?

Yan Ke seemed to be aware of it, and looked back, Tian Lanshan hurriedly knelt on the ground, holding a broken bowl in his hand, someone passed by and gave her a penny, she said thank you vaguely, good people have a safe life!
Yan Ke closed his eyes, turned around and continued to walk forward, Gu Feng looked back at her thoughtfully, and followed.After waiting for people to walk a little further, Tian Lanshan's broken bowl had three or four pennies in it, she was immediately happy, she straightened her clothes and ran towards the pawn shop with the money in her hand.

"Shopkeeper, bring me a good pot of tea!" She deliberately lowered her voice, and sat on a chair, looking like an arrogant old man, slapping the short knife on the table, waiting for someone to serve her.

The waiter glanced at the delicate knife, and hurriedly brought up the teacup: "My lord, please wait a moment, my shopkeeper is talking to Mr. Su."

"Su... Master Su? Which Master Su?" Tian Lanshan trembled, my God, Master Su?Don't be Su Boyun.

"It's Mr. Su, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. I don't know what happened recently. He always comes to the pawnshop to check things. Don't tell me." Su Yunbo upstairs greeted him again.

"My lord, have you chosen what you like?"

Su Yunbo straightened his fox fur coat, held a stove in his hand, and said lazily: "No, my lord will come again next time."

"Okay, Mr. Su, please. It's freezing cold, you can walk slowly, and be careful of the slippery road." Xiaoer sent him to the carriage with a flattering face, and when he turned around, he saw Tian Lanshan sitting on a chair with her back , a pair of legs resting on that table, as unsightly as possible.

The shopkeeper glanced at the dagger, his eyes lit up instantly, and hurried up to greet him: "Hey, guest officer, what are you going to do?"

"The first-class good jade, this is poured out from the palace by my relatives, the price is 300 taels." Her heart was trembling, 300 taels, you can buy a lot of delicious food.

"This... this kind of jade is indeed rare, but 300 taels is indeed a lot. If you don't believe me, you can go to a nearby shop and ask. If there is one that can sell 100 taels, I would like to give 130 taels!" The shopkeeper After a gesture, he lowered his voice again: "Guest officer, otherwise, if you give me this dagger, I would like to pay 300 taels."

"You think I don't know the goods, do you? I can pick a gem from this dagger, and it will cost a few hundred taels! Okay, I will sell this piece of jade. If you have a good price, then I will be here from now on." It's time for business, if you don't sell it, then I'll change to another place. At least 200 taels, if you don't sell it, I'll leave." Tian Lanshan took the jade back from his hand, turned around and walked outside, but Accidentally stepped on the threshold, fell, and shattered the jade into two halves with a bang.

At this moment, it seemed that the whole world fell silent. The shopkeeper's expression was very profound. He stood at the door, and instead of helping her, he just ordered to Xiaoer: "What are you still doing in a daze? Help the guest officer up quickly." , maybe we can discuss the price of this dagger, guest officer, look..."

Holding the dagger in her arms, Tian Lanshan gritted her teeth: "I... I'm wrong."

"Hey, guest officer, there is no reason to leave empty-handed when doing business with me, right? We can negotiate the price, right? Let's see how much you are willing to pay. Let's have a good discussion." He blocked the door , looking at Tian Lanshan, with a treacherous smile in his eyes, Tian Lanshan held the dagger in his hand and shook his head: "I won't sell it anymore! Get out of the way."

"Not for sale?" the shopkeeper asked her meaningfully.

"Just don't sell! Don't bother me, I'm going back, I... my master is a big shot in the palace, if you dare to stop me, then... don't blame me for being rude." Tian Lanshan Staring at him with a vicious look, but this look doesn't seem to work anymore, it's over, they only talked about selling jade before, but she broke the jade into pieces!This dagger was given to her by Xiangye for self-defense. It is said that it is sold like iron, and she has never really used it. She lost the pair of purses for Xiangye, and now there is only this dagger left. , if she sells it again, doesn't she have nothing to think about?

"1000 taels! Girl, this is the highest price I can afford. You are also a person who needs money urgently, so I won't bargain with you. If you like it in the future, you can redeem it, right?" , might as well take the 1000 and use it first." He persuaded Tian Lanshan in a gentle voice, and Tian Lanshan felt that what he said made sense.

"Then... 500 taels, if you don't give it to me, you will go back." She stretched out her hand and gestured for a five, and the shopkeeper took out a 1000 taels of silver bill, and gave her another 500 taels of broken silver, laughing. Yingying said: "There are two pieces of silver and goods. If the girl still has good things in the future, you can come to the pawnshop with this money. If you sell them again at that time, I will give you a commission of ten taels of silver each?" It's a good thing, especially the word "Xiao Chixiao" is engraved on it, this is simply a miniature version of the Chixiao Sword!

"Okay, I've made a note, so I'll go shopping first." Tian Lanshan now has money, and her words are much tougher. She went to the clothing store, picked out some winter clothes, and bought some silver. Tan, two quilts, packed some delicious food from Yipin Pavilion, sat on the donkey cart, and followed the donkey cart back to Granny Huazi's house. She was smart enough not to let someone stop at Granny Huazi's door , but stopped at the entrance of the alley, and then walked back and forth twice with a pile of things before finishing moving.

The person lying on the bed looked at the two plain quilts she threw over and raised his eyebrows: "How much money did you sell for this piece of jade? There was no money to buy steamed buns before."

Tian Lanshan put the thick quilt under, and after busy figuring it out, she lifted up the already slightly cold food box, and heated it on the silver charcoal basin before she started eating. It's full, I think I'm really hungry: "Jade... well, the jade is broken." She took out the piece of jade, put it on the table, curled her mouth, with a grievance on her face, the best jade, it just broke , she was really distressed.

Even though he was hungry, Long Scrophulariaceae still tasted elegantly, rivaling the prime minister.She paused slightly with her holding chopsticks: "I... I sold that dagger for 500 taels, enough for us to eat for a long time."

Dragon Scrophulariae's mouth twitched: "Do you know what that is?"

"I don't know. He said 1000 taels. How smart I am. I said I want 500 taels. If I don't give it, then I will go to another store." Tian Lanshan gestured to the scene at that time with a smile. , said it so vividly that Long Scrophulariae couldn't help laughing: "Yes, yes, you can talk about business."

It's better not to tell her about the little Chi Xiao dagger, lest she think too much in her heart and be unhappy at that time.

"Which pawnshop are you selling from?"
