A car accident, our family of three crossed

In the county jail, Hang Shuheng tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He didn't know if it was because he was thinking about something or because of the thunderous snoring in the jail that kept him awake.

At this moment in the prison, except for him, the rest of the people, from the prison guards on duty to the prisoners, were snoring loudly, and the old man in the cell next door snored especially loudly.

Hang Shuheng simply turned over and sat up, sighing. He had been here for several days and had no idea what the situation was outside. Wan Baolu had suffered a loss here, and he wondered if he would go and cause trouble for Song Ning. This was what he had always been thinking about.

"Why are you still not sleeping in the middle of the night and sighing? You're disturbing my sleep." The old man woke up at some point. He was still angry with Hang Shuheng for the past two days.

Who disturbed whose sleep? This old man is really good at turning the tables.

Hang Shuheng leaned against the wall and said, "I miss my wife and children!"

"Bah, don't be ashamed."

The old man said something sour, turned over and continued to sleep, while Hang Shuheng looked at the darkness ahead and fell into deep thought.

The next morning, Song Ning had a good sleep and woke up feeling refreshed and strong.

Several aunts told her what happened yesterday one by one. Song Ning acted very calmly, but the aunts could not bear it and became angrier and angrier as they talked.

"Your mother-in-law is really... How could there be such a bad person? Did you know that she actually signed a contract to sell you with that young master Wan? It's really infuriating."

"And Tiesheng's wife, she seems to be a quiet person, but I never thought that she would be able to harm others quietly as well."

"Thanks to our Yangyang for being smart and brave, he knew to find someone to save mom. You don't know how scared we were when we saw you covered in blood."

As the conversation got to this point, the aunts happened to be changing the bandages for Song Ning. The aunts couldn't help but ask the questions in their hearts: "Shuheng's wife, why did you prick yourself when you were fine? Look at your hand..."

Song Ning smiled slightly and said, "Because it hurts, and the pain will prevent me from falling asleep so quickly, so that I can resist whatever they want to do to me."

Just as He Wangshi said, she really pricked herself just to keep herself awake, which made the aunts admire her very much.

After breakfast, Song Ning planned to go into the city again. After what happened yesterday, she didn't want to wait any longer. She decided to use the token, hoping it would be as useful as the man said.

When she proposed to go into the city, the old clan leader disagreed, "Young Master Wan has bad intentions towards you. If you go into the city at this time and run into him again, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape unscathed."

Seeing that he disagreed, Song Ning could only bring up her scholar father as an excuse, "My father once helped a nobleman in the city when he was alive. That nobleman left a token for my father, saying that if he encountered difficulties, he could ask him for help with the token. I want to meet this nobleman, maybe he will be willing to lend a hand."

When the old patriarch heard that it was related to Mr. Song, he had no doubts, but he was still worried about letting Song Ning go alone, so he called his eldest son to go with her. Having an elder traveling with her made him feel more at ease.

Song Ning humbly accepted the kindness of the old patriarch's family. After comforting Yangyang, she went home to get the token.

When she returned to her yard, she hadn't had time to clean up the mess, and she was about to leave, so she didn't have the energy to clean up. She went into the house to take out the token she had collected earlier, and without any delay, she hurried out the door.

Traveling together this time were the old patriarch's eldest son Uncle Jinghong, and Shuisheng Qinglai. They had a clear goal and went straight to the largest gold and silver shop in the county.

Standing at the door of the shop, they looked up at the glittering sign. Except for Song Ning, the other three couldn't help but become reserved. The largest gold and silver shop in the county sold the most valuable items in the county, which were things that country folk like them had never had the opportunity to see.

Song Ning took a deep breath and walked in confidently. Seeing this, the other three hurriedly followed.

"Hey! What do you want to buy?"

When the shop assistants saw the new customers, they immediately came forward to greet them warmly and did not treat them coldly just because they were dressed simply. This made Song Ning like the shop even more.

Uncle Jinghong, Shuisheng and Qinglai felt embarrassed when they heard this. They might not be able to afford any item here even if they sold all the items. The three of them looked at Song Ning in unison, waiting for her to speak.

Song Ning smiled at the waiter and said bluntly, "We are not buying anything. We came here today to ask to see your shopkeeper. Please let him know."

"You want to see the shopkeeper?" Hearing this, the waiter had to re-evaluate the people in front of him, "How well do you know the shopkeeper?"

Song Ning shook her head: "I don't know him."

"Then why do you think the shopkeeper would be willing to see you?" the waiter asked, touching his chin.

Song Ning said calmly, "I have a token in my hand, and I believe the shopkeeper will be willing to meet him."

"Token?"

The clerk narrowed his eyes when he heard this. He couldn't help but wonder where this woman in front of him came from. He saw that these people were dressed like country people. The three men behind him had been pretending to be calm since they entered the shop, but they were actually very nervous. On the other hand, this woman was always neither humble nor arrogant.

He tried to test her: "You can give me the token and I will pass it to the shopkeeper for you. As for whether he is willing to see you after seeing the token, it is not up to me."

"No." Song Ning said firmly: "I will not give the token to anyone unless it is the shopkeeper himself. If the shopkeeper is here, please inform him. If the shopkeeper is not here, we will come back another day."

"Hey you..." The guy was speechless for a moment. It was obvious that he didn't trust him. "Okay, okay, just wait here for a moment." He waved his hand, not wanting to argue with the narrow-minded woman, and turned to go upstairs.

Song Ning looked at his back and couldn't help but smile. This guy was quite easy to talk to.

Soon, the waiter came down from the second floor and said, "The shopkeeper is willing to see you, but only those who hold the token, so the others please stay here and wait."

"How can this be done? This is not appropriate..." Uncle Jinghong disagreed. How could they feel at ease letting Song Ning, a woman, go up alone?

"Uncle, don't worry, the shopkeeper won't make things difficult for me." After saying that, she walked towards the waiter and said, "Please lead the way!"

The waiter raised his eyebrows. He called other waiters in the shop to serve some tea to Uncle Jinghong and others, then turned around and led Song Ning upstairs.
