Chapter 15:

Zhaoer came out of the street where the bookstore was located, only to remember that she had nowhere to go.
She was accompanying the little man to the bookstore today. Xiufang couldn't do the job anymore, and she hadn't collected the dishes for many days. Now it's too much trouble to go back to the village and wait for the afternoon.
She calculated what day it was in her heart and decided to see her second sister.
Zhao Er's second sister Wang Zhaodi was not in Huyang Town, but was doing a girl in Shen Fu in Xia County. From Huyang Town to Xia County, it's only half an hour's journey by mule, but it's a little expensive to take a trip and get fifteen yuan.
When the children were recruited to the county, it was three minutes. It's just time to meet someone at this time. Too early or too late will not necessarily have time for her second sister to see her. It will take a long time.
Zhaoer came all the way to the south of the city. Before entering the archway where the Shen family was, he saw two large banners that stood five feet high in front of the Shenfu gate.
This is Jinshi and Diqi. Only someone in the family who has won Jinshi can set this flag.
This meritorious flagpole is divided into two structures, flagpole clip stone and flagpole.
The flag bucket on the flagpole is also exquisite. He was born in the imperial examinations. In the court test, he can stand two flagpoles. If it is the champion, it is the flagpole of three buckets. If there are more than three ranks of members in the family, you can stand four buckets.
Two flags in front of Shenjiamen, one is three buckets and the other is four buckets. That is to say, the Shen family had a champion, and there was a heavy minister in the middle of the DPRK.
The reason why a rural girl in Zhaoer knew this was that she had told her when she came to see her second sister.
The main entrance, the side entrance, and even the corner entrance are not accessible by the identity of Zhao'er. She went around in a big circle before coming to the back entrance of Shenfu.
The door of the back door was half-covered, and Zhaoer didn't dare to break in. He respectfully knocked on the door.
The door opened with a creak, and from the inside came a sleek wife and asked her, "Who are you looking for?"
This woman was just a doorman, but she was also wearing a satin garter, wearing jewelry on her ears, enough to show the wealth of the Shen family.
The Shen family is indeed rich and affluent. In this Xia County, it can be said to be stomping the foot, and the county is about to tremble. The Shen House here is the ancestral home of the Shen family. Except for the uncle Shen and the second lord who are officials abroad, everyone else in the Shen family lives here.
"Good mother-in-law, I am looking for Suran. I am her younger brother. I came to see her specially."
This woman-in-law's attitude can't be described as enthusiasm, but there is no dog eye to see people low, at least from this point, you can see that the Shen family's rules must be strict. She asked Zhao'er to wait and closed the door and went inside.
Zhaoer waited for a long time for the incense stick before the back door opened again, and a pretty-looking woman emerged from it. I saw her skin light wins the snow, Phoenix eyes Zhu lips, wearing a water-red shirt, moon-white pleated skirt. A thick black hair with a long hair simply pulled a bun with a golden hairpin inserted on it.
Obviously, the clothes are ordinary, and the hair accessories are ordinary, but what she wears on her is a kind of beauty that no one else has. She was bulging in front of her chest, but her waist and legs were very thin, and she had a good figure.
This person is Zhao Er's second sister Wang Zhaodi, but when she arrived in Shen's house, she changed her name, called Suran.
Zhaoer couldn't help frowning. The last time she saw her second sister, the second sister changed a lot. Not only the material of clothes, but also the jewelry and the appearance of the body have changed a lot.
With a little panic in her heart, she grabbed Suran and went to the corner of no one beside him.
"Sister, did you really do it?"
Suran saw her sister scratching her sleeves, and she was impatient: "What can't you do?"
"That's that, that ..." Zhao'er hesitated for a long while before he blushed and said: "Wouldn't you really make room for Six Young Masters."
Suran picked up the corners of his eyes and ticked the corners of his mouth: "What do you care about?"
"Sister!" Zhaoer couldn't help stomping his feet.
Suran looked at her sister and remembered that she had been sold by her family at the time. Only Sanmei Zhao'er asked her whereabouts from the tooth-wife and walked by to see her day and night. At that time she was full of panic, and the appearance of Zhaoer let her know that she was not alone, that she would not die in this house, and no one knew, immediately softened her heart.
She sighed softly: "I didn't tell you before, I wouldn't go out to go to that kind of hard life. Although I am a room now, but the six young masters promised me, when grandma enters, I will Aunts do. "
Zhao'er was shocked with disbelief, and there were already counts in her mind, but from the second sister's mouth she knew she had done such a thing, and she was still shocked.
For the first time in her life, she did n’t know what to say. After a while, he hesitated and said,
Then this is the case? When you are young, you will be bullied by your big wife.

Zhaoer's only cognition told her that when she was small, she could live comfortably in a few days.
Sister's words made Suran not particularly tasteful, she waved her hand carelessly. The snow-white and slender jade fingers, wearing a gold ring of opal, exude a faint light and shine in the sun.
"You don't understand, you don't have to be afraid that I will be bullied. As long as Master Six is ​​on my side, even if Grandma Six comes in later, she would not dare to bully me."
"can……"
"Okay, don't say anything about me, your little husband is ill? Isn't it that I said you, you came into the house to be a girl to accompany me, and it's better than you staying there . Which woman is looking for a man is not looking for someone who can protect himself. You are better. Instead, you earn money to support your family. "
"Isn't he still young. Besides, sister, you don't know, if it wasn't my mother and father, I was afraid I wouldn't know where I was sold. You were lucky, and you were sold into Shenfu, But there are also bad luck, sold in that kind of pickled noodles place. "
Suran pressed her bright red lips tightly and didn't speak.
She was sold into Shenfu, but it was not explained by good luck.
In the phoenix's eyes, all kinds of light belong to silence. She exhaled lightly and scolded: "So I don't want to see you the most, and every time I come, I get angry and add to my block."
Zhaoer kicked the pebble under her feet: "I thought I hadn't seen you for a long time, came over and looked at you."
"Is my life okay? Then the Xue family is not embarrassing you? You wait, wait for your sister to become the aunt of the six young masters, who will bully you in the future, the sister will help you clean up him."
Zhao'er listened warmly, but couldn't help but lean back, holding Sulan's slim waist coquettishly: "Sister, you're relieved, I'm so splashy, who dares to bully me. You don't know that Xue family's moths too much……"
She recounted what happened to the Xue family recently.
Suran heard his mouth straight, and said sarcastically: "So this is the heart of the person, don't try to test the heart, it will usually make you disappointed. Don't rely on others, it's true that you are in your hands."
Suran is a little extreme, but she can find out why this happened to the second sister. In fact, she occasionally is extreme, but she rarely speaks out.
"Then what do you do now? If your little man really lost, then he wouldn't go to school? Have you ever thought about this matter, if you win, if you lose, you two are in trouble The Xue family has a foothold. "
Of course, Zhaoer understood this truth, and she stood up and smiled: "Sister, I know. You can rest assured, I plan to find another way to do business, but the big deal is that we just came out. Dog likes to learn, let him learn , Until I can't move. "
Su Lan hated the iron, and she poked her forehead with her jade finger: "If you can't afford it, how old are you? If you don't live a good day, you want to don't do it. Don't say it. The second sister does n’t feel bad for you. I have someone I know who is the third treasurer in 'He Rongsheng'. If you go to him, he can find you a way to get some money. "
‘He Rongsheng’ is the name of the pawnshop. There are many branches in Pingyang Prefecture and one in Huyang Town. Zhaoer usually comes and goes in the town, and naturally heard of this name.
"This is Rongsheng's business with the Shen family? Sister, how do you know the three shopkeepers inside?"
Sulan's eyes flashed indistinctly, and impatiently said: "Don't worry, you just have to find a person named Shen Ping. Well, I won't tell you, and the six young masters will have lunch later I have to wait, lest the little hooves will rush to the front and offer diligence. "
After a pause, she took something out of her sleeve and stuffed it into Zhaoer's hand: "It doesn't matter if you hold it, even if you really lose it, let's go first. Shen's ethnic studies are famous throughout Pingyang, etc. My sister will become an aunt in the future, and see if I can ask the six young masters to let your little man come in as a companion. What I owe you in my life, I have to worry about anything broken.
Suran's figure soon disappeared in the door.
Zhaoer stood on the spot and looked down at the silver ingot in his hand. For a long time, Fang squeezed away.
Zhaoer didn't know where Herong Sheng in the county was. She asked all the way.
When I got to the place, it was also a coincidence that the three shopkeeper named Shen Ping was there.
Shen Ping is a very young boy, looks good, very old and stable. He was wearing a dark blue straight hat, and he looked about twenty years old, but he didn't expect it to be a shopkeeper of a pawnshop.
When he heard the idea of ​​Zhao'er, he blinked: "You are Zhao'er, I heard your sister said you."
Zhaoer didn't expect that the second sister would tell her name Shen Ping, she smelled an unusual smell. With the conversation, Shen Ping has led her in.
"When your sister told me before, I was thinking about what business can make you do it for a long time. I thought about it and thought, selling old clothes is quite suitable for you as a girl."
The second sister even told her the surprise of her sex, and it didn't last long. The attention of Zhao'er was attracted by Shen Ping's words.
"What is selling old clothes?"
"You should know what the pawnshop does. This pawnshop collects everything and can do anything. Among them, the current period is divided into death and live. If it is live, it means that the other party will come to redeem. Of course, there are also those who are alive and overdue, and naturally become dead.
"These things were taken by the pawnshop and exchanged for the owner. Naturally, they had to resell them. Like some old clothes in the past, we all directly transfer them to the embroidery workshop or the ready-made shop. Get some old clothes here to sell. "
As Shen Ping said, Zhao'er's eyes flashed again and again, and asked, "Then I don't know what the price will be? Is it calculated on a piece-by-piece basis, or what? Since it's old clothes, it's definitely not as expensive as new clothes?"
Shen Ping glanced at her: "You are smart." He turned around and went to the layman: "Come with me, I will show you."
Zhaoer followed him all the way back. The courtyard behind this pawnshop was very large, and it looked like it was all warehouses.
I met many people in the pawnshop on the road, and I was very respectful when I saw Shen Ping. Zhaoer followed him to a barn, and neither of them entered. A man with a buddy-like appearance dragged a large bag of things out of it and opened it in front of the door.
The big bag was full of clothes, some were worn out, some were new, and some were even brand new. They were not worn twice. The texture of clothes is also varied, there are cotton, satin, and silk, but they are all of good texture, anyway, they are better than the coarse clothes that Zhao Er wears.
"These are usually mixed together, because they are all received at a low price, so the asking price is not high. Such a bag of clothes gives me two or two, it is yours."
Zhaoer couldn't even see her eyes. In order to make sure that the business could be done, she deliberately stepped forward to look around.
Such a bag of clothes, at least a hundred pieces up.
Even if she sells twenty clothes for a piece of clothing, it is enough for her to pay back. And some clothes are based on her visual inspection, and the selling price is more than twenty. What can you do for twenty renmin, you need at least six or seven feet of cloth to make a piece of clothing, and you can also get seven or eight renmin for a second-foot cotton cloth.
Not to mention that there are still some good fabrics inside, and even some cotton clothes, even if you do n’t sell it, you wo n’t lose money if you wear it yourself.
