God-given peasant wife's good fortune

Chapter 927 Ze'er Extra Story (42)

Mr. Xiang is at the top of the list, and there will definitely be many people coming to congratulate him at this time. If he goes now, he will not be serious enough to add icing on the cake.

When the sisters of the Tang family heard that the benefactor who saved their elder brother actually got the first place in the exam, they looked at each other in surprise, and then Tang Miaoxin smiled and said, "Brother, then our congratulatory gifts and thank you gifts have to be given together."

"That's right." Tang Haiguang was a little absent-minded when he responded to these words, because he knew that the family had no money at all, so he wondered where else he could borrow money?

Tang Miao glanced at her brother, turned around and entered the room, and came out with a small cloth bag after a while.

Tang Miaoyun was afraid of being scolded by her brother, so she lowered her head and hid behind her brother.

Tang Haiguang looked at his elder sister in puzzlement, and saw that she put the small cloth bag on the only wooden table in the house, and then carefully opened the cloth bag, one layer after another, and finally saw the inside after three layers The exposed two ingots of silver.

Tang Haiguang's face darkened suddenly, and he asked, "Where did this silver tael come from?!"

Tang Miaoxin smiled indifferently: "Miaoyun and I pawned the jade bracelet."

The jade bracelets were given to her by her grandmother when she was married. On the day of her engagement at the age of eight, her mother gave one of them to her and left the other to Miao Yun.

"When did it happen?!" Tang Haiguang was anxious and angry. The pair of jade bracelets were the dignity left by the mother to the two younger sisters, and they pawned them!
"On the day the Yang family retired." Tang Miaoxin lowered her head and said.

Part of the money from the jade bracelet was used to buy medicine for Neng's parents and elder brother, and it was given as a reward to the government servant who came to announce the good news just now, so there are only two ingots of silver left.

Tang Haiguang stared blankly at his elder sister, with remorse, anger and guilt flashing through his heart.

Isn't the day the Yang family retired the same day he entered the examination room?

The Yang family had long thought of retiring because their parents were both sick in bed, so he insisted on getting rid of it, just to get a good grade in the exam and complete his sister's marriage. Give up the thought of retiring.

However, he suffered a sudden illness on the way to the examination room and almost lost his life. As soon as the news came out, the Yang family concluded that he had failed the examination and immediately ordered people to come home to withdraw from the marriage.

Thinking back then when he was still in the examination room and his younger brother was away from home again, Miao Xin had personally exchanged the Geng Tie of the Yang family boy, what kind of mood did Miao Xin feel at that time?
"Miaoxin, brother, I'm sorry!" A flash of pain flashed from the bottom of Tang Haiguang's eyes, and then a firm look lit up again: "Miaoxin, the Yang family is so snobbish, it's not a good match, it's good if we retire. Brother will definitely find you a better marriage!"

Miao Xin is only 12 years old this year, and in a year or two, after he finds a job, it will not be too late to say goodbye to his sister.

"Okay!" Tang Miaoxin and Tang Miaoyun looked at each other after seeing the high-spirited look on his brother's face a few years ago, and the two sisters also had smiles on their faces.

"Miaoyun, you feed your parents medicine. It's still early, so I'll go to the city." Tang Miaoxin said as she put two ingots of silver into her bosom, ready to go to the city to prepare a gift for her brother.

Tang Haiguang was agitated just now, and felt a little stuffy in his chest. He didn't try to force himself to go by himself. If he fainted again, he would only make trouble for his sister.

Ze'er went to the "Grand Hyatt Restaurant" to get food and drink and returned to Zuo's house, and celebrated with Zuo Jianming, Hao'er and others, and it was already afternoon when she left Zuo's house.

Ze'er drank a little too much, so she couldn't help saying to Hong Lie: "Uncle Hong, I'm going to sober up."

"Okay." Hong Lie turned his head and said to the coachman, and the coachman drove the carriage back to Taifu's mansion first, while Hong Lie followed Ze'er and walked slowly towards the street.

Because it was the announcement day, the streets were very lively today. There were a lot of people buying firecrackers, offerings, and gifts, and it was full of joy.

As for those who fell off the list, maybe they were in a restaurant to drink away their sorrows, and they were frustrated alone?
Ze'er suddenly thought of something and asked, "Uncle Hong, do you think that Tang Haiguang would have done better in the exam if he hadn't been sick?"

Ze'er was confident that he would pass the exam, but getting the top spot was really beyond his expectations.

It would be a lie to say that you are unhappy, but you won't be so excited that you lose your mind.

"Don't think too much, Young Master, Tang Haiguang's life was saved by you." Hong Lie said.

Ze'er heard that Hong Lie had misunderstood what he meant, but in fact he was just asking casually, and he didn't feel that his name at the top of the list was unfair.

After walking for a while, Ze'er felt that she was almost sober, and not far away happened to be her medicinal herbs wholesale store, so she thought of going to the shop to rest and warm her body.

Ze'er and Hong Lie were about to enter the shop when they suddenly heard the voice of a little girl bargaining from the winery opposite their shop.

"Shopkeeper, can this jar of wine be made cheaper?" the little girl asked.

The shopkeeper was very speechless: "Girl, our winery never cheats, and never bargains."

It is also because this winery is well known that Ze'er and Hong Lie will only take a second look when they hear someone bargaining.

"Shopkeeper, of course I came here knowing that the wine here is good." The little girl was not at all embarrassed, but said righteously: "As for the people who bargain, if you have the first one, you will naturally have the second." For one, let me be the number one, not everyone can be the number one."

Hearing the almost rascal's words, both Ze'er and Hong Lie stopped to look at the opposite winery with great interest.

The shopkeeper of the winery was dumbfounded by the little girl's words: "Little girl, all the wines in our winery are priced, there is really no way to reduce them, so don't embarrass me."

"Shopkeeper, is this wine price set by you, or by your boss?" the little girl asked again.

"This..." The shopkeeper glanced at the little girl: "Of course our boss ordered it."

"Shopkeeper, let me ask you, why did your boss open this winery?" The little girl looked at the shopkeeper seriously.

"Of course it's for making money." The shopkeeper was getting impatient.

"That's right, your boss opened this winery to make money, so isn't my money money?" The little girl asked back: "Shopkeeper, if you sell me the wine at a low price today, when I have money in the future, I will double it." Pay it back to you, okay?"

"Girl, do you want to be an empty-handed wolf?" The shopkeeper's face was a little ugly: "Girl, let me say it again, the price of our wine here must not be lowered, if you insist on bargaining, we can't do your business! "

"Shopkeeper, how can you drive people away when you open the door to do business?" The little girl was still indomitable: "Shopkeeper, I really want to buy wine from your winery, you can't treat customers like this!"

The little girl tightly hugged the jar of wine in her arms, looking defensively at the shopkeeper and Xiao Er who was approaching her.

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed formally came into the winery. The little girl guessed that this man should be the housekeeper of a big family. She changed her mind slightly, and then bowed deeply to the shopkeeper with the wine in her arms: " Thank you shopkeeper for your kindness, but if you don’t get paid for nothing, you still have to pay for the wine.”

The little girl said that she stuffed a few pieces of silver in her hand into the nearby second hand, and rushed out of the winery with the wine jar in her arms, leaving behind the shopkeeper and the second hand with bewildered faces.
