She sighed and said, "I'm afraid I can't take it down."
…
On the second day, Shen Qiu really picked a few chests of real gold and silver and came to Shen Miao's courtyard. Most likely he was afraid that Shen Miao was short of money, so he took out a thousand taels of banknotes from his bosom and gave it to Shen Miao before smiling, "Younger Sister's current age would require a lot of money and one fear that this amount of monthly money is not enough. Take these silvers. If there's anything you want to buy, just buy it. If it's not enough, just ask big brother for more. "
The maids sweeping the floor outside all looked at Shen Miao with envy. In the past, they felt that this Fifth Young Lady of their family had an awkward position in the residence. She only had a good reputation and did not even know that she was being bullied. It was really pitiful. Now it seemed that they were blind. Not to mention Shen Xin and wife, even Shen Qiu would pamper his Younger Sister to the skies.
Shen Miao felt somewhat inexplicable as Shen Qiu's attitude was strange. She nodded her head and did not decline as she accepted the banknote, "Many thanks."
Shen Qiu was a little disappointed. After thinking for a while, he waved his hand and the two guards behind him immediately came forward. Shen Qiu said, "My two guards are experts in the army. I will temporarily lend them to protect you." He was worried that Prince Yu of the First Rank would have some tricks up his sleeves. If it was not for Shen Miao's insistence to go out, Shen Qiu would have let Shen Miao stay in the residence.
Shen Miao complied and Mo Qing also followed out. Shen Qiu smiled, "Your choice of bodyguard is really not bad."
Mo Qing had already left the identity of a guard outside the Shen residence and Shen Miao told his identity to Shen Qiu. Shen Qiu returned the indenture to Mo Qing and let Mo Qing join the Shen family's army, but these days he would be Shen Miao's guard and protect her safety.
Bringing along three guards and two maids, Shen Miao finally left the main entrance of the Shen residence.
Even the carriage driver was someone that Shen Qiu found who had martial arts skills.
Shen Qiu's servant said, "Young Master is really protective of Young Lady."
Shen Qiu sighed. It was a pity that no matter how much he tried to protect her, she was too mature as a younger sister and did not have the sense of accomplishment as an older brother.
"Let's go." He waved his hand. "Let's go back and practice our swordsmanship!"
…
Feng Xian Pawnshop was the biggest pawnshop in the Ding capital.
Compared to other pawnshops, this pawnshop naturally had its own advantages. The Feng Xian Pawnshop only accepted precious items. If it was an ordinary item, it would be 'courteously' sent out by the pawnshop assistant. The owner of the pawnshop was probably a generous person. If the item that the customer offered was really valuable, then the pawnshop would definitely offer a high price. But the Feng Xian Pawnshop still had a rule, this place only did dead pawns, once something was pawned, there was absolutely no reason to redeem it.
However, people wouldn't pawn their precious things unless they were at the end of their rope, let alone pawn them at the cost of their lives. Thus even though the Feng Xian Pawnshop was rich and overbearing and it occupied the largest area in the Ding capital, there were only a few customers coming and going. Under such circumstances, this Feng Xian Pawnshop actually maintained for many years and did not collapse, one did not know how they maintained their livelihood.
Today in front of this Feng Xian Pawnshop, there was a horse carriage stopped.
Some of the commoners who were passing by could not help but look over. Because those who came to Feng Xian Pawnshop to pawn items, most of them were desperate and were in urgent need of money, and this carriage looked rather exquisite. The coachman sitting on the carriage also did not look like an ordinary person and did not look like a poor person. And why would a rich person come here to pawn their precious things? It was indeed somewhat strange.
The pawnshop's worker was a young grey clad boy who looked smart and capable. When he saw that the horse carriage stopped in front of the door, he was slightly surprised for a moment. Following that, a few females walked out from the inside. The leading young female was most likely a young lady from a family. She was wearing a cloak and had delicate features. When she looked over, her eyes were as clear as water.
A few guards and maids surrounded that young female as they walked over. The little worker went up and smiled, "Customer wants to pawn something."
"There is something that needs to be pawned." That purple clad young female said.
"What item does this customer want to pawn? Can you take a look at the goods first? "The little worker smiled from ear to ear. He could see that this young female was either rich or noble, so his smile became more enthusiastic. Who knew that the other party shook her head, "I want to see your manager here."
"This … This is against the rules, customer." The little worker shook his head. He had seen a lot of people who came here to find trouble, and there was no lack of rich and powerful people, but the Feng Xian Pawnshop had never been afraid of these people.
"The thing that I want to pawn is too big, and you look down on it." The young female was not angry and said lightly.
When that pair of eyes looked at him, the little worker had a feeling that he had fallen into an ice cellar. Before he could speak, he heard a coquettish voice, "Who wants to see me?"
A young female walked out from the back. This female was not considered beautiful but her entire body exuded a charm that could captivate one's soul. The few guards behind Shen Miao all blushed.
"This customer, do you want to see me?" That female swayed her waist as she walked over and asked with a smile.
Shen Miao shook her head, "I want to see your manager, Bai Xiao Sheng."
The female's smile stiffened in a split second.
