Unexpectedly, Wang Zheng would react so violently. Su's hand holding the banknote trembled.

"No, not what you think."

Wang Zheng stood up and strode out.

After a while, the sound of a carriage was heard. It was Wang Zheng who drove the carriage away.

Leaving the family looking at each other in blank dismay.

Zhu Yin held Xiao Xiaobao anxiously and wanted to chase him, but there was no way he could catch up with him.

Su grabbed the curtain and stood at the entrance of the tent, explaining, "I think we are all one family, so there is no need to distinguish them so clearly."

"Don't worry, I'll chase you and have a look."

Li Yueyan was going to lead the carriage.

It happened that Liang Dagang came with the villagers of Datian Village. There were more people than yesterday, more than twenty people.

"Dad, we can't build a house without you, and my godfather is not unreasonable. Maybe he has something to do and will be back later."

Li Yao said this as he looked at the dust rising on the road.

But in my heart, I was thinking about what my godfather was going to do without saying a word.

There is bound to be some concern.

"Godmother, you haven't been to Pushi County yet, why don't we go shopping today."

Anyway, there are many carriages at home, so they don’t need their help in building the house.

Instead of worrying like this, it's better to go out and take a look.

"well!"

Zhu Yin responded hurriedly, "I'll go get something. You wait for me in the carriage."

When Li Yueyan saw that his daughter had made arrangements, he walked towards Liang Dagang and others.

He had to talk to Liang Dagang about what he had discussed this morning. If they were willing to accept the wages, then let them help.

If they don't want wages, they won't be allowed to help.

Mrs. Su pulled Li Yao and said a few words, which meant that she wanted her daughter to have a good talk with Wang Zheng.

She really didn't mean anything else.

If I really want to say a reason, it is that I don't want Wang Zheng to suffer. He also didn't want his mother-in-law to feel that his family was taking advantage of him.

From the day she set out from Qingshan Village, she had treated Wang Zheng as a brother.

The couple had discussed last night that they would pay as much money as they needed for the house.

He really turned Wang Zheng into his own brother.

I just didn't expect it to be self-defeating. Instead, Wang Zheng was unhappy.

Li Jiyang drove Zhu Yin's mother and son and Li Yao to Pushi County in a carriage.

I originally thought I could catch up if I speed up a bit, but I didn't expect to catch up with Wang Zheng's carriage until they reached Pushi County.

The county seat of Pushi County is not prosperous. There is only one main street and many small alleys, but none of them can pass a carriage.

"Brother Jiyang, let's walk slowly and find the end of the street."

Li Yao lifted the car curtain in front and hung it up.

Akane also raised the curtains.

The three of them, one on the left, one on the right, and one in front, were searching.

Different from the worries of the adults, Xiao Xiaobao was extremely excited.

He clapped his hands and pointed outside again.

After all, it is a county town and there are many people. The cries on both sides and some new things attracted Xiao Xiaobao's attention.

"Find your godfather and let's go play again." Li Yao took his hand and squeezed it.

Xiao Xiaobao seemed to understand and became quiet.

"Sister, does the carriage in front of you look like the one driven by Uncle Zheng?"

Li Jiyang said as the carriage drove over.

"Seems to be!"

Akane confirmed.

The three people jumped out of the carriage and looked up to find that it was a pawn shop.

Li Yao immediately understood what his godfather was here for.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered, he saw his godfather surrounded by several people, talking all over the place, but no one came in at all.

"Godfather!"

Li Yao stepped forward hurriedly, his voice loud and clear.

Wang Zheng turned around, "Hey, why are you here?"

He glanced at Zhu Yin and said, "I'll take you around later."

Zhu Yin carried Xiao Xiaobao and walked out. She understood Wang Zheng's plan at a glance.

She had not interacted with people for a long time, and she was also afraid of such a place, so she wanted to go back to the carriage and wait.

I felt a little unhappy.

Li Yao winked at Brother Ji Yang, and Li Jiyang followed him out.

"Come, come, Brother Wang."

One of those people just shouted to Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng smiled awkwardly at Li Yao and walked over.

"Does your wife regret it?"

A man who looked like a shopkeeper held a gold hairpin and weighed it in his hand.

"Hey, no." Wang Zheng scratched his head, "Look at how much silver it's worth. I'll pawn these pieces together."

Only then did Li Yao notice that there was a small table in the middle surrounded by several people, with several pieces of jewelry placed on the table.

The shopkeeper didn't care about Li Yao who was still inside.

He stretched out five fingers and shook his head at Wang Zheng.

50 two?

Wang Zheng frowned, "Shopkeeper, look at the workmanship. It's made of pure gold. There must be more than 50 taels of gems on it!"

"Brother Wang, you made a mistake, I meant five taels."

"Five taels!"

Wang Zheng couldn't believe it, "You said this gold hairpin is only five taels?"

The shopkeeper nodded.

Wang Zheng picked up another one, "What about this one?"

The shopkeeper held out three fingers.

Wang Zheng laughed coldly.

"Then tell me how many hairpins and how much are these two bracelets?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Wang Zheng and looked at the jewelry on the table, "Maximum 30 taels!"

"30 taels, right?"

Wang Zheng looked like he was gritting his teeth.

The shopkeeper and several waiters looked at him eagerly.

People who come to their pawn shop are always desperate.

The shopkeeper prides himself on having a sharp eye, but the man in coarse clothes and linen in front of him is definitely out of luck.

The little lady who just came in must have wanted to stop him.

Maybe because I was too thin-skinned, or maybe I couldn't bear the hardship, I finally let my husband pawn her off.

"This is because our store is big, so we can afford the price. Brother Wang, if you go to the one at the end of the street, you will definitely pay less than this."

Wang Zheng took back the gold hairpin from his hand, and took back a few from the table together with the wrapping cloth.

"Inappropriate!"

He snorted, pulled Li Yao and walked out.

"Don't regret it. Come back later, 30 taels are gone, only 25 taels at most."

The shopkeeper chased after them until they got on the carriage, still shouting from behind.

Wang Zheng and Li Jiyang changed carriages to catch up, instead of going to the end of the street, they turned around.

"Godfather, there is a small teahouse in front of you. Let's go and sit there."

Wang Zheng whipped his whip and the carriage headed towards the teahouse.

"Come on, good son, daddy will take you to tea."

When we arrived at the teahouse, a waiter came over and took the horse's rope.

Wang Zheng reached out and took Xiao Xiaobao from Zhu Yin's arms, and stretched out a hand to support Zhu Yin.

Zhu Yin was angry and jumped down without reaching out.

Li Yao had already come down from the other side.

Wang Zheng took back his hand angrily, and several people walked into the teahouse.

It can be seen that the business of this tea house is not very good, there are only a few scattered customers.

Li Yao and the others had something to say, so they went to a private room near the window on the second floor.

After ordering two pots of tea and several plates of snacks, Wang Zheng closed the door after the waiter brought them.

"That pawn shop was too shady. They deceived me like a fool. Fortunately, I didn't really want to be a pawn shop. It was just a formality."

Zhu Yin still had a cold face and remained silent.

"Godfather, you have to tell us what you want to do. If you run out like this, don't you make us worried?"

"I didn't think much about it. I just wanted to collect some money to build a house."

Wang Zheng said truthfully.

Zhu Yin suddenly spoke, "Even if you don't care about my feelings, you still have to take care of others."
