Chapter 8 Dumping the Watch
Mu Jiayun nodded, then took out the anti-inflammatory pills and cough medicine from the medicine box, and told Aunt Wang how to take it for Bai Suxue.

Bai Suxue took the medicine, leaned against the head of the bed and said, "What's wrong with me?"

"You are suffering from the wind and cold, and you will be fine after a few days of rest." Mu Jiayun replied with a smile.

Uncle Wang also said: "Yes ma'am, the western medicine that Ms. Yun brought back from abroad will definitely cure the disease."

Bai Suxue nodded, she naturally trusted her little daughter unconditionally.

Mu Jiayun talked with Bai Suxue for a while, the mother and daughter had breakfast together, and then she left the house under the pretext of having an appointment with a friend.

An hour later, Mu Jiayun stood at the door of the pawnshop, holding the gold watch she had exchanged for in her belly pocket.

She checked her mother just now, and her mother's illness is pneumonia, and it has been delayed for too long. If it is not treated in time, the consequences will be disastrous.

Now the only drug that can save my mother is penicillin. Penicillin is a new drug, and it is expensive. It is impossible for their family to afford it given the current situation.

Therefore, the only thing she could think of was to pawn her only valuable thing, the gold watch that the man gave her.

As long as she passes the current hurdle, she will get the money in the future, and then redeem the gold watch.

After thinking for a while at the door of the pawnshop, he stepped into the pawnshop.

Seeing that Mu Jiayun was dressed luxuriously and elegantly, the pawnshop clerk concluded that there must be a good treasure to be pawned.

Then he came forward to say hello, "Miss, do you want to redeem something or pawn it?"

"I want to be something." Mu Jiayun handed the sandalwood box in his hand to the man.

The man found the wooden box, opened it and studied it carefully, "Miss, wait a moment."

The clerk went to the back hall to invite the pawnbroker, who glanced at Mu Jiayun, and then carefully inspected the gold watch with a magnifying glass.

A few minutes later, the boss finally put down the magnifying glass, turned to stare at Mu Jiayun and said, "Five hundred oceans."

Mu Jiayun was startled, he didn't expect a gold watch to be so valuable, but when pawning things, the higher the price, the better.

So she pretended to understand and said: "Boss, my watch is rare in the world. Do you think I don't know the rules when you offer such a low price?"

"Miss, just do what you want, if you don't, please leave, don't affect my business." The boss returned the watch to Mu Jiayun with a very arrogant and hateful attitude.

However, Mu Jiayun was in urgent need of money and asked for it from others.

"In this way, the boss's watch will be regarded as my deposit with you, and I will come to redeem it after a while." Mu Jiayun thought that the price of pawning is not high, and the price of redemption will be relatively much lower.

The boss just nodded, picked up the watch as if it was a baby, and entered the back hall.

The man took five hundred oceans and handed it to Mu Jiayun.

Mu Jiayun went straight to the hospital after getting the money.

"Doctor, I need penicillin."

The doctor glanced at Mu Jiayun, "No."

"Please, I'm here to save people. I beg you to do me a favor. I'm willing to pay any amount." Mu Jiayun begged the doctor.

"Miss, it's not that I don't want to sell medicine, but that the hospital does not have penicillin." The doctor emphasized again.

"Then where is it?" Mu Jiayun looked at the doctor as if he was lying.

The doctor said: "Penicillin is a new drug that has just been developed abroad. It has not been officially launched yet. Except for a small amount of penicillin in the military, the people can't find this drug at all."

"I understand." Mu Jiayun thanked the doctor and left the hospital.

Standing on the street, he sighed melancholy.

Unexpectedly, it is so difficult to buy medicine in China. My mother's illness can't be delayed any longer, and she doesn't know anyone at the officer level. What should I do?

So, she thought of her fiancé Rong Yanchen.

As the president of the Peking Chamber of Commerce, it should be possible to help buy a few penicillins.

So, she arrived at Rong Mansion by rickshaw.

He was stopped by the guard at the door, "Miss, who are you looking for?"

"I am Young Master Zhao Rong." Mu Jiayun replied politely.

"Do you have an appointment?" The guard looked at Mu Jiayun in a foreign dress, elegant and elegant, and did not dare to offend him.

"No." Mu Jiayun replied.

"Sorry, you can't go in without an appointment, and you are not invited by the Rong Mansion." The guard politely refused, and made a gesture to the door to leave.

Mu Jiayun was thin-skinned, and she was embarrassed to ask the guard to let her in after being politely refused by the guard.

But her mother's condition was serious, and she had to see Young Master Rong.

Therefore, she was so heartbroken that she couldn't care less about face.

"I am Rong Shao's fiancée, please inform me."

The guard stared at Mu Jiayun for a while, then suddenly sneered and said, "I have been on business in Ronggong for so many years, and I have never heard of the young master having a fiancee. I think you are just someone who wants to climb high and pretend to be a rich man to sneak into the Rong mansion to seduce my young master." Mischievous woman."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mu Jiayun glared at the guard angrily.

Just now I thought they were polite, but in the blink of an eye, they were arrogant, revealing their true colors.

The guards identified Mu Jiayun as one of those women who wanted to attract the young master's attention, so they bluntly gave orders to his men.

"Pull her down to me. If you really let such a person appear under the young master's nose, you won't even want your job."

The two guards immediately went to Ramu Jiayun.

Mu Jiayun hurriedly avoided, "Don't touch me, I'll go by myself."

She is a noble princess, even if the Qing Dynasty is gone, her dignity and self-esteem will not allow others to trample on her.

Just as she turned around, a masculine voice suddenly came from beside her ear.

"What's the noise? This is the Rong Mansion, and you're all making a fuss about it as a vegetable market, right?"

Mu Jiayun turned around and saw that the person who spoke was the housekeeper who gave her two oceans that day?
And the Rong Yanchen she was looking for was walking out of the gate of the Rong mansion, surrounded by people.

The guard at the door hurriedly moved out of the way, and nodded to Steward Rong and Rong Yanchen: "Butler Rong, a crazy woman came to the door, and she kept saying that she was the young master's fiancee and wanted to see the young master."

"Oh! Who is so bold as to pretend to be my fiancé?" The man's magnetic voice was deep and melodious, as beautiful as the sound of dripping water.

Mu Jiayun reported his identity because he had nothing to do before, but now he was met by Rong Yanchen on the spot, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Rong Yanchen walked up to Mu Jiayun, and said calmly, "Raise your head."

In fact, he saw Mu Jiayun on the doorstep just now, and he couldn't see her clearly because he was too far away.

Mu Jiayun grew up in England and was influenced by the culture of Western countries. She was not as shy when seeing men as domestic women, and looked up at Rong Yanchen generously.

The man in front of him was handsome and picturesque, fresh and refined, with a noble air.
