Zhou Shizi spoke with gritted teeth. The hundred taels must be words of anger, so she thought it would be better to be sensible.

Yun Ling said, "Sister, there are subtle mysteries hidden in our embroidery. They can't understand it. Only Zhou Shizi has a sharp eye for pearls. We are like Chollima and Bole. It's really tacky to talk about how much money we have."

The shopkeeper who repeatedly mentioned money: "..."

Okay, okay, he’s just vulgar!

He will never accept any more embroidery from Miss Shen in the future.

But what is the mystery?

It actually provoked the "Iron Rooster" Zhou Shizi to generously offer a high price of one hundred taels, and even went to the bank to get money to buy it immediately?

Under the curious eyes of everyone, Yun Ling pulled Shen Qingmo out of Linglong Embroidery Workshop.

In that compartment, Heyi chased his master who was walking faster and faster, suspecting that he wanted to deny his guilt.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Qiong walked a few steps, he stopped in front of a pawn shop not far from Linglong Embroidery Workshop.

He stroked the jade pendant he took off from his waist and stuffed it into He Yi's hand, "Go in and get out as one hundred taels."

Wow, you really have to spend a hundred taels of silver to buy that embroidered picture.

"Sir, didn't you win this by cheating... from the son of the Minister of Rites' family? Didn't you say it was a good piece of jade? Do you really want to take it?"

"Go quickly and don't talk too much."

"Yes!"

Seeing that the prince's face was getting worse and worse, He Yi ran into the pawn shop.

Zhou Qiong, on the other hand, returned to his lazy and dandy manner, leaning on the railing and waiting for the two little girls from the Tang family to slowly walk over.

Humph, you really dare to ask for his money.

When others approached, Zhou Qiong smiled at Shen Qingmo and said: "Miss Shen, my young man went into the pawn shop to get some money. I wonder if you can also go in and help me pick a box to put the embroidery pictures in? I plan to use this as a gift. , that outer layer of wrapping is a bit unsightly.”

Thinking of Zhou Shizi's previous pickiness, Shen Qingdai felt that this person was difficult to get along with, and nodded quickly: "Okay."

After saying that, she pulled Yunling to go into the pawn shop together.

But Yunling, who has always been obedient and well-behaved, said: "Sister, I'm a little tired, so I'll take a rest outside. You go in and pick, and I'll wait for you outside."

Shen Qingdai's eyes glanced back and forth at Yun Ling and Zhou Qiong, and a strange feeling emerged in her heart.

He also saw that although the door of the pawn shop was a little off, there were a lot of pedestrians coming and going, so he said, "Then I will come out quickly."

As soon as they left, the smile on Zhou Qiong's face faded, and she raised her eyebrows and said sarcastically: "Old Mrs. Tang is famous for curing diseases and saving people, but I didn't know that her granddaughter is a master at repaying kindness with revenge."

Yunling ignored his sarcasm, only stared at Zhou Qiong with a pair of clear eyes, and asked: "Why are you afraid that I will tell you that you saved me? You don't want people to know that you were in Honglian Temple that day?"

She asked such a straightforward question when she first came up, and it hit his mark. Zhou Qiong didn't know how to answer it.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yunling asked again: "My maid Cuizhu died. Do you know how she died?"

"Don't you remember?" Zhou Qiong looked at her doubtfully.

Yunling didn't ask what she wanted to know, but he noticed something strange. She couldn't help feeling a little regretful, and said, "I remember you saved me, and I remember you almost beat me to death."

He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he thought that he would not be able to save anyone after being complained about, but he pressed too hard on the stomach to control the water and pressed in the wrong position, almost hitting the little girl's internal organs.

He just wanted her to spit out the water in her stomach quickly. Who knew that the girl's body was so weak that she screamed and fainted, which shocked him.

However, this is not the reason for the little girl to blackmail him.

"I don't care whether you really forgot or pretended to forget. In short, I can give you a hundred taels, but we will go back to the bridge and go back to the bridge from now on. The matter of Honglian Temple is not allowed to be mentioned again."

There was a warning in his eyes: "If you tell me to go out, it won't be as simple as me throwing you back into the lake. If you don't believe it, you can try to pull me out. Then you can see whether it is me who is unlucky first, or the others." Your life will suffer first. Or, you can think more boldly and wonder if the entire Tang family will be killed as a result."

"That Cuizhu..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Qiong interrupted her impatiently, "Do you really want to know?"

Yunling decided to give in, "Forget it, I've been running a high fever since I fell into the water, and I've forgotten a lot of things. Since I've forgotten, let nature take its course."

She raised her eyes to Zhou Qiong's twinkling eyes, "My uncle Tang Yuanzhi is suspected of selling inferior medicine. Could it be related to the incident at Honglian Temple?"

Zhou Qiong's eyes were intense.

This girl from the Tang family is a little too smart.

However, although the things are closely related, the involvement between the inferior medicine and Tang Yuanzhi is not directly related to the incident at Honglian Temple.

Zhou Qiong also said straightforwardly, "It has nothing to do with it. Your old lady has superb medical skills and has been appreciated by many noble people, but he also attracts jealousy because of his superb medical skills. Tang Yuanzhi's involvement in the case was a trap set up by others. His falling into the water and the death of your maidservant It doesn’t matter.”

After saying that, looking at the little girl's slightly sad expression, he couldn't help but say: "Just think that Honglian Temple is a dream. You have never been there, and you have never fallen into the water. You don't know anything. What's the best for you?" the best."

Yunling nodded solemnly: "Thank you very much."

Seeing her listening to the advice, Zhou Qiong's face brightened slightly.

When he saw Heyi running out with silver in his hands, his face turned dark again.

"Sir, the shopkeeper is only willing to give you eighty taels. I have to persuade you to give ninety taels. For the remaining ten taels, I will keep the safety lock my mother gave me. You will have to give me money later. Go and redeem it.”

Zhou Qiong glared at him angrily, "Give Miss Tang a little, so you don't have to admit it later."

He emphasized the word "acknowledgement" very seriously.

Yunling laughed secretly, but pretended to look at the silver coins in front of her.

When she caught a glimpse of Zhou Qiong's increasingly darker complexion and more and more distressed eyes from the corner of her eye, she finally raised her hand to take out five taels of silver and said, "My sister sent this landscape courtyard painting to Linglong Embroidery Workshop. It's sold at the price of five taels of silver. I was just joking with you. This picture should be as much as it should be.

It is a blessing when a good object meets someone who appreciates it, and it is even more fortunate when a person in trouble meets someone who helps him. Thank you very much, Prince Zhou, for today, and we will say goodbye first. "

Looking at Yunling's back pulling Shen Qingdai away, Zhou Qiong's face was filled with shock.

On the other hand, He Yi was wondering at the side: "Master, are you threatening that little girl? How come she doesn't want the hundred taels that we negotiated?"

"If you ask me, although our house is too poor to expose the blame, it is still the Zhenxihou Mansion. We can't lose our face outside." He Yi was still rambled on.

Zhou Qiong knocked on her face and asked, "What kind of face? The face you got from a pawn shop?"

"Hey, don't give up on yourself."

Zhou Qiong, however, stopped paying attention to him and walked slowly in the direction of the two Tang sisters.
