Quick Wear: I am the shopkeeper at the Merit Pawn Shop

"Shen Mo, the Sun family is really thoughtful. They even thought of the cleaning lady for us."

The family of the students in Hangzhou originally employed two laundry maids, but they fired them when they came to the capital.

They had originally thought of hiring two laundry maids when they got there, but the Sun family had even thought of this and handed the indenture to Shen Mo.

"Dad, it's not easy for them to find someone like me."

"That's right. How can a businessman be qualified to hire the runner-up to work for him?" Hang Qiuxue sighed.

When he thought of Shen Mo's success in the imperial examination, he felt deeply saddened.

But if Shen Cheng was exposed now, Shen Mo would also be implicated, so he felt aggrieved.

"Dad, capable people can shine wherever they are."

"What you said is quite interesting." Hang Qiuxue chewed over Shen Mo's words again and again, and the more he thought about it, the more interesting it became.

Then his eyes fell on the eldest brother. Shen Mo was so promising, it didn't make sense that his son was so useless.

"Boss, Shen Mo has been favored by the Fourth Master of the Sun Family, and your father and I also have work to do. What are your plans for the future? You can't let your wife keep him all the time!"

Ever since Hang Songnian came back from the army with a leg injury, he hasn't gone out to look for work on a daily basis. Fortunately, Miao raises silkworms and can support the two of them.

But as a man, you can't always let a woman support you.

The relationship between father and son was not good before, and the eldest son moved out, so he couldn't say anything.

Every time the wife went to help, he would turn a blind eye.

But now the boss’s leg injury has healed, and it would be unreasonable if he didn’t go out to work.

"Brother-in-law, what can I do? I want to follow you."

Hang Songnian couldn't figure out what to do for a moment and scratched his head in frustration.

Asking him to ask about the job himself would make him feel embarrassed and unable to speak.

But Shen Mo is his brother-in-law, and he feels that he can do anything if he can follow Shen Mo.

"Don't worry, let's go around the capital in the next few days and learn about various industries to see what's suitable. My father and I have already worked for the Sun family, so you don't need to work for the Sun family anymore."

Shen Mo patted his shoulder.

"Hmph, just spoil him. He's already old and can only wield swords and guns. What else can he do to make a living? Even if he has a way, he can only be a coolie." Hang Qiuxue's words were so vicious that Hang Songnian felt uncomfortable.

Shen Mo sighed in his heart, this might be what Hua Xia’s father was like, the deeper his love, the more severe his criticism.

"Don't say that, father-in-law. My brother-in-law still has many good qualities. After all, you personally taught him. He just has no interest in studying, not that he has never studied. In the army, he was also a sergeant, but he had to retire because he was injured. After experiencing the ups and downs of life, my brother-in-law will definitely cherish life more."

After all, he is his son. After Shen Mo said this, although Hang Qiuxue was still dissatisfied, his expression had eased a lot.

"You can't think about it for too long. People can't be lazy. Once they are lazy, they will become lazybones."

"I understand, Dad. I will find something to do as soon as possible." This time, Hang Songnian spoke without waiting for Shen Mo's help.

This is his own business, and he cannot let his brother-in-law help him all the time.

In fact, Shen Mo had already considered what Hang Songnian wanted to do, but before proposing it, Shen Mo felt that Hang Songnian should first tour the capital before proposing it.

Otherwise, it is not good to dive into an unfamiliar industry without knowing anything.

Hang took the children to clean the courtyard inside and out. In fact, there was nothing to clean up. The Sun family gave the house to Shen Mo, and someone had already cleaned it up.

Mrs. Hang was a person who loved cleanliness, and she felt that she would be living here for a long time, so she cleaned very carefully.

The next morning at breakfast, Hang seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Shen Mo saw what she was thinking and suggested, "We haven't been to the capital yet, do you want to go out for a walk together? We also need to buy food and other things we need. You can go to your parents later and tell them that we can go buy food together, so your parents don't have to go out to buy it."

This time they only brought clothes, bedding, pots, pans, and other things with them. The food they brought was eaten on the way. Mainly, their family doesn't farm, so they won't buy a lot of food at one time.

"Okay." Hang smiled at Shen Mo and went over to ask happily.

By the time Shen Mo had prepared the carriage and got his two children on board, Mrs. Hang had just returned.

Shen Mo put a hood on Hang, drove the carriage himself, and the family of four went shopping.

The streets of the capital city are bustling, with performers and jugglers, shop signs lining the streets as far as the eye can see, and the constant shouting of peddlers carrying loads on their shoulders.

Shen Mo let the carriage move slowly on the street, and whenever he saw a shop that his mother was interested in, he would stop to take a look.

Arriving at a fabric shop, Hang saw several pieces of fabric with good colors and texture. He was clearly already unable to move his feet, but he still reluctantly went to look at fabrics that were obviously of much lower quality.

Then he thought of something and quickly took out a bag of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Hang. If it weren't for the fact that the gold was too conspicuous, Shen Mo would have wanted to take out the gold.

"My dear, this is the money I earned this time. I haven't given it to you yet. Just buy whatever you like."

Hang looked at the silver and then at Shen Mo, a hint of shyness appeared on her face. She felt fortunate that the hood covered her face.

Hang took the money from Shen Mo's hand, then pointed at a few pieces of fabric that she had taken a fancy to and asked the shopkeeper to buy some for her.

A woman next to her who was also looking at the fabrics and who was obviously dressed like a wealthy lady, looked at Hang with envy.

"Hey, madam, this man looks a bit like our son-in-law!" The maid beside her pointed at Shen Mo and said.

Wei Mingzhu followed the maid's direction and looked towards Shen Mo. The first thing he saw was Shen Mo's beard.

She tapped the maid's forehead unhappily and said, "What kind of eyesight do you have? Your son-in-law is handsome and refined, but this one looks rough. Since there are no new designs, we should leave."

As she spoke, the lady walked towards her own luxurious carriage. The sophistication of the carriage was very different from that of Shen Mo's family.

Shen Mo didn't even look at the other person for another second, but he noticed that her hand was trembling slightly. He looked down and saw that it was the hand he was holding that was trembling, not his.

He gently patted his absent-minded daughter and said, "What are you thinking about? I called you several times, but you didn't respond."

"Ah!" Hang Rong came back to her senses.

"Rong'er, don't be afraid. Dad is here." Shen Mo saw that Hang was watching the shopkeeper measuring and pulling cloth for her, and he whispered to comfort his daughter.

The little girl tried hard to hold back the tears in her eyes and squeezed her father's hand a little tighter.

"Dad, I had a nightmare last night."

"What did you dream about? Go back and tell your daddy." Shen Mo rubbed the little girl's head.

"Okay." Hang Rong smiled sweetly at Shen Mo.

Shen Mo carried all the newly bought cloths of Hang's family onto the carriage. At this moment, a carriage came galloping over crookedly.
