Employed husband

The weather was colder, and there was another snowfall, which was much bigger than the previous one.Two houses in the village were knocked down, and several people died.

The old people said that there has never been such a heavy snowfall in hundreds of years, and the vision from the sky may not be a good omen.

Zheng Daliang squatted on the steps of the door with a sullen face in a daze.Recalling this time last year, the family was sitting around eating dumplings stuffed with wild vegetables.It's not popular to eat this during the Chinese New Year here, it was suggested by Daliang, and he taught everyone to make it.

The family is in harmony, and the steaming heat of the food is on Zhang Zhang's smiling faces. Even if the taste is not good, it is the happiest year this family has had in the past few years... But now...

The herbs at home were used up yesterday, and Sanzhu's illness is fine, but Grandpa's illness is gradually getting worse.His cough was getting worse and worse, and there was a sign of a recurrence of high fever.

Zheng Daliang squatted until his legs were numb and his body was cold. He exhaled two mouthfuls of white air, and made up his mind to go back to the house and open the old cabinet.Taking out the upper layer of clothes revealed a tightly tied blue cloth bag.Unzipping the cloth bag, the luxurious clothes and gold medal of the original owner appeared in front of his eyes.

Picking up the heavy and delicate gold medal carved with lifelike lions, the beam hesitated for a moment before putting it down...

The identity of the original owner is not simple, it is definitely either rich or noble.But she has been in trouble for more than a year, and no one came to find her! I don't know what incident the original owner was involved in. If she rashly showed the gold medal in front of others, would she be killed?Daliang was really worried.

Why don't you make clothes first... The fabric of the clothes is of high quality, so you should be able to exchange some money.

After saying hello to my sister and brother Shiqiao, Zheng Daliang went into the city with his luggage on his back the next day.There are many new refugees in the city, and the law and order is getting worse. Near the shelter or in relatively remote places, there may be robberies in broad daylight.

Many shops are afraid of getting sick or being robbed, so the business has shrunk a lot, and they are even more dilapidated than the previous visit. You can often see teams of government officials with nervous expressions passing through the street.

Zheng Daliang went to several pawnshops carrying the burden. The shopkeeper either thought the clothes were too old, or believed that it was difficult to find a home for foreign clothing. The highest one only gave her ten taels of silver, which was much less than Zheng Daliang imagined.

Hesitant and frustrated, she began to regret not bringing the gold medal with her.Wandering around in place for a long time, the snow under her feet made her trample on it. In the end, she had no choice but to go to the pawn shop with the highest bid, and could only pawn a little bit.

Sighing, just as he put his feet on the steps, he suddenly heard someone calling from behind: "Brother."

When Zheng Daliang turned his head, he saw a lady from a rich family wearing a curtain on her head and a navy blue brocade dress surrounded by four strong guards calling her.

...Wear light colors in winter, doesn't it look cold?But it seems a little familiar... the voice is also a little familiar... Zheng Daliang really couldn't remember when he knew such a rich man, so he asked suspiciously: "You are?"

"Brother, don't you remember me? Green plum juice... Thirty Wen..." The girl in blue brocade clothes reminded her with a smile and kindness.

Zheng Daliang suddenly realized, isn't this the older one among the first pair of customers at his stall on Aunt's Day!

"Ah! So it was you! That time... Thank you so much."

The girl in blue and brocade clothes shook her head, and said politely: "A good product should be worth something, it should be. You are today..." After saying that, she pointed to the baggage in Daliang's hand.

For a moment, Zheng Daliang showed a bit of bitterness on her face, but she immediately adjusted back to normal and said: "Something happened at home... I need money urgently, I just have some clothes that I want to pawn... But it doesn't seem to be possible..."

Apart from the outbreak of the epidemic, what else could be so embarrassing?The girl in blue and brocade clothes nodded clearly and said, "Can you show me? I know a few pawnshops with good reputation, maybe they can help you a little bit."

When Zheng Daliang heard the words, it was like seeing a savior, and he thanked repeatedly for opening the cloth bag.

Seeing the clothes in the cloth bag, the girl in blue brocade was slightly taken aback.Although her family doesn't specialize in weaving, she has extensive knowledge, so she recognized at a glance that this dress is the common dress of a noble woman in the Western Extremes, and it is absolutely extraordinary!For example, many places are woven with gold and silver threads, the patterns are fine, and the stitches are even and delicate.

The mysteries are all reflected in the details of the clothes, and the ultimate luxury is hidden in a low-key manner.In the West Pole, I am afraid that ordinary noble women can't afford to wear them, and only the nobles above the Marquis can afford it!

The most important thing is that this kind of clothes should never appear in the hands of the poor people like the young man in front of him.

The girl in blue brocade clothes was shocked and puzzled, she wanted to ask Zheng Daliang where she came from, but seeing her perplexed look, she knew she would never tell.

The girl checked the clothes carefully again, and found no torn places, let alone blood from the knife.In recent years, no Xiji person has been robbed or disappeared in Zhongjing, let alone a woman of great aristocratic status.

She has a good impression of the young man in front of her, and she always has a kind of mysterious trust in her character.Hard-working and kind-hearted people should not engage in robbery. There must be a reason for it... She didn't feel comfortable asking, and said, "Come with me, I don't know how much you want to be? Do you want to be dead?"

Zheng Daliang didn't understand the market, and his confidence was destroyed by the shopkeepers in front of the pawnshops, so he didn't dare to say the original expected price.Mustering up the courage, stretched out two fingers and quoted the price of 20 taels.

The girl in blue brocade clothes smiled without answering, and brought Zheng Daliang to the magnificent gate of Changxindang, the largest pawnshop in Cangzhou Prefecture.

Opening the door curtain and going in, the shopkeeper saw the girl smiling all over her face, her face wrinkled into a ball.He came out from behind the counter in person, rubbing his hands and bowing his waist to say hello: "Oh, isn't this Li Shao's family?! What wind brought you here?! The shop is so splendor! Please take a seat! I Now go invite our boss! Just wait a moment!"

Then he turned his head and shouted to the young man who was poking his head inside: "Second boy! Hurry! Hurry up and make the best tea in our house, and serve it to the young master!"

Then he turned back and flattered the girl: "Of course it can't compare with your tea, you can drink it casually to quench your thirst."

"You don't need to bother your boss." The girl in blue and brocade clothes stretched out her hand and couldn't stop the ingratiating shopkeeper: "I came to your bank to pawn something."

"You?...You want to be a thing? I heard it right..." The shopkeeper couldn't believe it, and asked subconsciously, dumbfounded.

"To be precise, this friend of mine is going to be the one." The water blue brocade-clothed girl gave way to the beam behind her, and motioned her to hand over the clothes to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper quickly took it over, looked at each other carefully, and nodded.

"My friend wants to die, how much silver can the shopkeeper give?" the girl in blue brocade clothes asked lightly.

The shopkeeper carefully looked at the girders of the cloth shoes, secretly wondering how could Li Shaodao have such low-level friends?Thinking about it again, it's none of his business, it's just that Li Shao is the head of the family, so it's not appropriate for the price to be less...

He swallowed back the price he had thought of and said what he thought was a high price: "20 taels!"

Zheng Daliang was about to nod, but was stopped by a girl in blue brocade clothes: "One price, 28 taels!"

"Ah?! This...Young Master...too tall...this clothes..." The shopkeeper's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly cried bitterly.

"The shopkeeper wants to say——isn't it worth the price?" The corners of the mouth of the girl in blue and brocade clothes curled up dangerously under Mu Lixia.

The shopkeeper heard that her tone was not good, and sweat suddenly appeared on her forehead, and she faltered and couldn't say a complete sentence.

Seeing that the shock was enough, the girl in blue brocade clothes slowed down her tone and said, "The shopkeeper is someone who has seen the world, so he naturally knows the benefits of this dress. If it hadn't been soaked in water and not well preserved, it might be 100 You can’t get such clothes, right? It’s not a good time, so why don’t the shopkeeper make it easier for others, and also for yourself?”

The shopkeeper couldn't help but smiled wryly, the master was indeed as shrewd as the rumors said, and he couldn't be fooled.

28. It is true that his profit has decreased a lot, but it is not nothing.

More importantly, if he can establish a good relationship with the master for his master, then he will have achieved a great achievement!What is a mere 28 taels? ! 280 The Two Masters Have to Raise Him!

Immediately made a decision and said: "Okay! Master Li is so kind, I can't be stingy! 28 taels is 28 taels!"

When he came out of the pawn shop, Zheng Daliang held the 28 taels of silver note that he had finally obtained, and sincerely bowed deeply to the girl in water blue brocade, and solemnly promised: "I will not thank you for your kindness! If Miss is useful in the future, please come to Daliang's place. Just open your mouth! As long as it is not against morality, Daliang will go through fire and water and die!"

The girl in water blue brocade clothes quickly helped her up: "It's a little effort, my brother is serious. It's getting late, you should go home early."

Looking at the back of Zheng Daliang leaving, the guard leader finally couldn't help asking: "Miss... I don't understand, what can she do for us as a commoner? Why don't you give her some money, but owe her some money?" Favors, trying to help her by beating around the bush?"

The girl in blue and brocade clothes shook her head slightly: "As I said, Ada, it is the worst thing to judge people by their status. Who can guarantee that we will never need the help of the common people? Although she is poor, she is not the one who should be given charity. It would be unbeautiful to do so. I have a hunch that I will meet her again in the future...Okay, let's go back too."
