Chapter 36 Pawn
"Second Miss, Madam will give this old slave to Second Miss, then the old slave will only have Second Miss as his master in the future, and this old slave only needs to do his own duty and take good care of Second Miss..."

Nanny Yuan paused, then continued: "As for what Second Miss wants to do, this old slave has no right to ask."

Yuan Nanny replied that she was extremely satisfied.

Song Jinyue took off a white jade bracelet from her wrist, took Yuan Nanny's hand, and gave the jade bracelet to Yuan Nanny.

"Second miss, this old slave is getting old. It would be a waste to use this high-quality jade bracelet on this old slave. The old slave understands the second miss's intentions. Please rest assured that the old slave will live and die in the future. The second lady's person.",

Nanny Yuan didn't take the jade bracelet, but carefully held it in her hand, and put it back on for Song Jinyue herself.

After several refusals, Song Jinyue stopped pressing and thought that when Nanny Yuan gets old in the future, she will personally take care of Nanny Yuan in retirement.

It was not too late, Song Jinyue hurried out of Zhangfu with Qiu Yun.

Tell Aunt Yuan that if Auntie asks, she will go shopping in the street and she will be back within an hour.

Nanny Yuan answered "Yes" and didn't ask any further questions.

I only asked the second lady to take the carriage of Shangzhang Mansion. Due to the recent downfall, the streets are crowded with people, and the ladies will always bring a few more guards with them than usual when they go out.

Song Jinyue didn't refuse, and followed Yuan Nanny's instructions, and got into Zhang's carriage.

After getting into the carriage, he went straight to Dongcheng.

Dongcheng is the most prosperous and affluent place in the capital. The most famous restaurants, teahouses, and jewelry shops are all word-of-mouth of century-old brands in the capital.

There is only one pawnshop named "Yong'an Pawnshop". The items in the pawnshop range from jewelry to weapons.

The carriage of Zhang Mansion is very simple, the flag of General Zhang's Mansion hangs on the top of the carriage to prove his identity, and the carriage is no different from the carriage used by ordinary people nearby.

The renters in the past generations are not those who like extravagance, and most of the descendants are down-to-earth and diligent in doing their own work.

The carriage stopped in front of Yong'an's pawn shop, and the young servant saw that it was the carriage of General Zhang's mansion, so he immediately turned around and went to report to the shopkeeper.The treasurer of Yong'an Pawnshop personally came to the door to welcome him.

Qiu Yun lifted the curtain of the carriage and was helping her young lady to get out of the carriage.

The shopkeeper looked at the beautiful figure in light blue, but she had a gentle temperament.

This girl is extremely face-to-face.

There is only one young lady in the Zhang family, and he heard that he left the capital a few days ago and has not returned yet.

Who is this girl?

"I don't know who is Miss?" the shopkeeper, dressed in a silver-gray brocade dress, was standing in front of Yongan's pawn shop, asking very respectfully.

Qiu Yun replied: "My lady is the second lady of Song Guogong's mansion."

"Oh, Second Miss Song, please come inside." Only then did the shopkeeper understand that the person who came was actually the only niece of General Zhang's mansion, and also the second young lady from Song Guogong's mansion.

Song Jinyue nodded slightly.

The shopkeeper personally ushered him into the private room in the pawnshop, and ordered the servant to make a pot of high-quality green tea.

The shopkeeper's surname is Li, this Yong'an pawnshop is the foundation of the ancestors, and now it is the third shopkeeper in the hands of shopkeeper Li.

In the private room in the backyard of Yong'an Pawn Shop, the black lacquered tables and chairs inside are all made of high-quality nanmu. On weekdays, whenever there are noble people from Beijing, shopkeeper Li will welcome them to the private room.

Shopkeeper Li asked Miss Song Er to sit down, and then asked, "I wonder if Miss Song Er came to the door today..."

Song Jinyue glanced at Qiu Yun and motioned for her to take the things out.

Qiu Yun understood, and hurriedly took out the black box that was straddling her back, and held the black box with both hands to the small square black lacquered table in front of shopkeeper Li.

After putting away the black box, Qiu Yun retreated behind the young lady.

Shopkeeper Li glanced at Second Miss Song, saw her nod, and then raised his hand to open the black box.

Seeing the things inside, Shopkeeper Li frowned slightly.

The gold hairpin inside was unusual, but he recognized the emerald jade hairpin.

It was the hairpin of Shen Shi, the mistress of the Duke of Song's mansion.

At the beginning, Mrs. Shen still got the material from shopkeeper Li. Even though Mrs. Shen found someone to beat that piece of material into a hairpin, shopkeeper Li could still recognize it at a glance. built by!

"Miss Song Er, this..." Shopkeeper Li looked a little embarrassed, pointing to the emerald jade hairpin inside the black box, his eyes showed a bit of trouble.

This emerald jade hairpin, how much the Shen family loves it, which one of the big families in the capital doesn't know?

Song Jinyue smiled lightly, and guessed the embarrassment of shopkeeper Li, he probably thought that she stole this emerald jade hairpin from Shen's house!

"Don't worry, shopkeeper Li, this hairpin is a gift from my mother."

In one sentence, it explained the ins and outs of the matter.

Shopkeeper Li was even more puzzled, since Mrs. Guo gave this rare emerald jade hairpin to Miss Song Er, how could she bring something to his Yong'an pawn shop?
Could it be that the Duke's Mansion is currently short of money?
But even so, it should be Mrs. Shen who came forward, how could she ask a young lady who has not been out of the court and has such a noble status to come to the pawnshop to pawn things.

"I don't know Miss Song Er, but I want to..."

Shopkeeper Li slowly closed the black box and asked directly.

Song Jinyue picked up the tea that was set aside, took a sip, then slowly put down the teacup, took the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her lips, lowered her head to straighten her skirt, and said lightly: "Of course I want to clean things up. Done."

Shopkeeper Li's expression was startled, but he was thinking in his heart that this matter might be a hot potato, but he couldn't afford to lose it.

He didn't answer, but looked at Miss Song Er, motioning for her to continue.

"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Li. If anyone dares to make things difficult for Yong'an Pawnshop, Shopkeeper Li will send someone to Song Guogong's mansion to inform me, and I will come forward to settle things for the shopkeeper."

Shopkeeper Li's eyeballs moved, but he still didn't answer.

Song Jinyue continued, "If shopkeeper Li is still not at ease, I am willing to sign a deposit with shopkeeper Li as evidence."

"It's not necessary, but I don't know the price in Miss Song Er's heart...and, will it be redeemed later?" Shopkeeper Li waved his hand, and then expressed the doubt in his heart.

Yongan Pawnshop has always relied on pawns to start its business, and there are rules in pawnshops.

If you don't redeem the items in the Yong'an pawnshop within ten days, then it will be up to the pawnshop to decide whether or not to keep the item.

Song Jinyue also understood the rules of Yong'an's pawn shop.

She will never come back to redeem the things that are going to be pawned today.

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, since this item has entered Yong'an's pawn shop today, it belongs to shopkeeper Li. I won't come back to redeem it, but there is only one condition."

Shopkeeper Li paused, and looked at Second Miss Song, wondering what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd.

I was also afraid that Second Miss Song would come up with embarrassing conditions.

He had already guessed a thing or two in his heart, probably there was some estrangement between Mrs. Shen of Duke Song's mansion and this stepdaughter, something in the high courtyard.

He is a pawnshop shopkeeper, how can he want to join the war!
But today Second Miss Song came in a carriage from General Zhang's Mansion.

Do you think this is what General Zhang's Mansion means?
