The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

When they arrived at the place, Song Ri stopped the carriage and said, "Miss San, we're here."

Mother He pulled down the curtain in the carriage and said to Yang Qi, "Miss, this is Fuyin Pawn Shop. It was still open when I came here a few days ago, but now it's closed for some reason."

Yang Qi looked at it and thought to himself, could it be that he had offended someone he couldn't afford to offend? Considering the style of Fuyin Pawnshop, this was not impossible. If you want to do business for a long time, you have to give every customer some face.

Yang Qi did not follow what He's mother said, and just said: "He's mother, let's go down."

After listening to Yang Qi's words, Mother He got off the carriage first, then took the prepared horse stool at the back of the carriage and helped Yang Qi get off.

Zong Yue had been waiting here for a long time. He was extremely shocked when He's mother contacted him for the first time. He didn't expect that the descendant of his master was still thinking about him and taking care of him. This time, after hearing what He's mother said, Zong Yue felt that he had been lucky. The young lady actually wanted to buy the Fuyin pawnshop and run it as a herbal medicine shop for him.

However, when Zong Yue received the gold bracelet and silver from He Mama, he was a little surprised. Why did the young lady give him a gold bracelet and even said, "If you need it later, just melt it down." Could it be that the young lady herself was not well-off?

The moment he saw Yang Qi in person, Zong Yue finally figured out the matter. It turned out that the young lady was only 4 years old! How could a 4-year-old child have so much cash? He could only take a gold bracelet. Zong Yue saw Yang Qi get off the carriage and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hello, young lady. I am Zong Yue. The second wife of the Duke of Song's mansion said that I will follow you in the future."

Yang Qi looked at Zong Yue, nodded, and said, "Second Aunt has already told me, come in with me and take a look."

Mother He, Zong Yue and Song Ri had all been to Fuyin Pawnshop, but it was Yang Qi's first time. Yang Qi looked at the shop carefully. Facing the door was not a counter, but a high wall that blocked the door tightly. There was a big "pawn" written on the wall. Yang Qi could only go around the edge of the high wall to enter the shop. The shop was not big, but around the high wall was a counter as tall as an adult. Mother He picked up Yang Qi and looked at it. Behind it was where the counter clerk sat.

Although it was morning, the back wall behind the door blocked most of the sunlight, making the whole room look dark. Yang Qi said, "If you want to rent this shop, these walls will have to be demolished. Manager Song Er, if you rent this shop, it will take a while to renovate it."

Song Ri had worked for the Xu family for many years. Since he recommended this shop to the Third Miss, he had made all the necessary preparations. After hearing Yang Qi's question, Song Ri replied, "Don't worry, Miss. These two walls are not load-bearing walls. It will only take two or three days to demolish this wall."

Yang Qi was very satisfied with this answer. There is a yard behind the pawnshop, with three rooms and a kitchen in the yard, and a cellar in the yard. Song Ri said on the side: "This yard and the two rooms and the cellar are all used to store the pawnshop's items, and there is another room for people to rest. Because the pawnshop needs someone to guard it every morning and evening."

Yang Qi looked at the small courtyard and was quite satisfied. He could store medicinal materials here in the future. Zong Yue could live in the shop in the future, which was convenient. "Second Manager Song, how much is the rent for this shop?"

Song Ri replied, "Miss, the rent in Caoshi is calculated on an annual basis. The annual rent for this shop is 200 taels."

Yang Qi nodded. This price was very reasonable. As the second steward of the Duke of Song's mansion, Song Ri must have negotiated a very low price. Yang Qi said to Song Ri, "I'll rent this shop. Thank you for your hard work during this period."

Then, Yang Qi added to He Mama: "He Mama, follow Steward Song Er to hand over the money, and then go through the necessary formalities."

"Yes, Miss." Mother He and Song Ri responded and left the yard.

After Mother He and Song Ri left, only Yang Qi and Zong Yue were left in the yard. Zong Yue had been following Yang Qi since he first saw her today. First, he wanted to take a good look at the pawnshop. The last time he came in, he had to pawn ginseng for a living, and was ridiculed by the pawnshop owner and the servant. Now, he can do what he loves in this shop. This is really unpredictable. Second, he wanted to observe Yang Qi. Although Yang Qi is young, he is unusually mature for his age. Every move he makes is methodical. This time, the lady left him alone, and he didn't know what she was doing?

Just as Zong Yue lowered his head to think, Yang Qi suddenly spoke.

"Are you willing?" These four words were once said by Zong Yue to Yang Qi. Yang Qi looked at Zong Yue in front of him, but what emerged in his mind was the scene in his previous life when Zong Yue told him in Han Mansion that his grandfather was innocent. His grandfather had an accident five years ago because of his poor medical skills, which killed a nobleman in the palace. Yang Qi had never doubted this before, but instead felt that his grandfather was a criminal, and he always felt inferior to others.

Ever since that day, Zong Yue came to Han Mansion and told himself, "Grand-master's medical skills are extremely high. Even in the Imperial Hospital, he is considered first-class. If the noble in the palace at that time really had some difficult and complicated disease, why was only Grand-master treating her?" "There must be something strange about what happened back then. Who was this noble in the palace who died? If she was unknown, how could she have the power to implicate the whole family of an imperial physician?" Zong Yue's words echoed in Yang Qi's mind word by word, but in his previous life, he couldn't even get out of the bamboo garden of Han Mansion, so how could he help his grandfather clear his grievances.

But Yang Qi hated it! The tragic death of his grandfather's family, his mother's depressed death, he hated everything. The funny thing is that Yang Qi still doesn't know who to hate, and he doesn't even know the object of his revenge.

The four words from Yang Qi made Zong Yue's eyes widen, like a knife stabbing into the depths of Zong Yue's heart, unable to calm down. Miss, can you see through people's hearts? Or, is Miss also doubting the truth of five years ago!

"Miss, you mean..." Zong Yue said in a serious tone.

Yang Qi interrupted Zong Yue and said word by word: "It doesn't matter what you point to, what matters is that you have the ability."

Yang Qi looked at Zong Yue and said coldly: "Zong Yue, we have nothing now. Only by working harder and becoming stronger can we know what happened back then! I know you will help me!"

Zong Yue looked into Yang Qi's eyes. The young lady's eyes were full of determination and anger. Zong Yue seemed to see a companion walking together in the desert, a comrade-in-arms who would walk the same single-plank bridge until the end of time: "Zong Yue is willing to exchange his life for the innocence of his master, master, uncles, and brothers."
