"No, no, there's something going on!" Liao Quan hurriedly called his daughter. If he didn't call her, his daughter would definitely go to his wife to tell something in private.

Keqing turned around with an expression that said, "As expected, you have something to ask me." Liao Quan scratched his head.

"My dear daughter, Daddy is a little short of money recently, you see..."

"So Dad, are you going to buy any antiques again?"

Keqing sighed. Her father had asked her several times to buy some antiques, but her father had poor taste and only sold fakes. She was always scolded by her mother, so her father had no pocket money now and she didn't dare tell her mother that he was selling antiques.

"This is a good thing, a calligraphy work by Master Yiquan." Liao Quan raised his eyebrows, then picked up Keqing, "My dear daughter, this is a good thing. If you miss it, you won't have it next time. That person said that many people want it. If it weren't for the fact that I was the first customer and had already reserved it, he would have sold it long ago."

Ah, familiar words. Keqing had already anticipated the ending.

Scammers often say things like, you are the destined one; you are the last one; if it weren’t for you, I would have left none for you since everyone else wants it, etc. Keqing has heard these words so many times that her ears are callused.

But my dad was just happy giving money away.

Although that little bit of money is nothing compared to what you earn, it is not a good idea to give away money for free and let the scammers become arrogant.

Just imagine, if they succeed this time, will they think that money is so easy to cheat next time and do it again? Over time, more and more people will be cheated.

Thinking of this, Keqing frowned slightly, but Liao Quan did not notice his little daughter's expression at all, but coaxed her softly

"So, dear daughter, help daddy. I know you have the dividends from Luoxianglou. For only one thousand taels, you can get Master Yiquan's calligraphy. What a bargain."

Keqing frowned slightly, looked at her silly father, then sighed: "Okay." Before Liao Quan could reply, she made another request, "But I want to go with you."

Liao Quan was stunned.

"You're going?"

"Yeah, what if daddy gets cheated again? I have to help daddy keep an eye on it."

Liao Quan looked at his daughter.

“Do you know anything about antiques?”

Keqing shook her head.

"Then do you know who Master Yiquan is?"

Keqing shook her head again.

"Silly girl."

Liao Quan laughed.

"You don't know anything, how can you help me check..."

"But I'm smarter than Daddy."

Liao Quan was choked for a moment, and suddenly felt that what his daughter said was very right!

No, no, no, this must be an illusion!

"Anyway, either you take me there, or I'll tell Mom that Daddy is buying antiques again. Then Mom will definitely..."

"No, dear girl, I'll take you there."

Liao Quan sighed, what a little ancestor.

Keqing nodded with satisfaction.

"Then let me prepare it. Do you want it now?"

"Well, if they want it now, they are in a hurry to return to their hometown. I heard that if someone in their family hadn't been in trouble, they wouldn't sell Master Yiquan's calligraphy at such a low price."

Liao Quan touched his chin.

Keqing asked curiously: "Do they know who you are, Daddy?"

"I don't know. I'm just buying antiques. Why should I tell them who I am? Am I the kind of person who uses my power to bully others?"

Keqing nodded: "Is that so... Then I'll go get ready. Daddy, wait for me."

Having said this, he disappeared in a flash.

"What else do we need to prepare for this..."

Liao Quan was puzzled, but since his youngest daughter said she wanted to prepare, he just waited. After a while, Keqing came back with her usual wooden sword hanging around her waist.

Liao Quan didn't care, he just leaned over and asked quietly: "Did you bring money?"

"Uh-huh."

"That's good, Daddy, I'll take you out to play."

Liao Quan had a look of joy on his face, but then he thought of something and restrained his expression and walked out with Keqing.

Outside, a sedan chair had already been prepared according to his instructions.

The location of the Shilang Mansion is where officials live or where wealthy families live, so the street outside is not busy and is very quiet, and small vendors are not allowed to set up stalls at will.

It was allowed in the busy places outside, so after the sedan had been moving for a while, there were gradually lively and bustling sounds of hawking.

Keqing listened to the voice beside her and felt at ease for some reason. She drew aside the curtain and looked outside, her bright big eyes blinking.

But he quickly looked away.

"Do you want to go out and play? I'll take you for a walk. It just so happens that I have a day off today."

Liao Quan also knew that his daughter liked to be outside, so he asked, but Keqing shook her head.

"Why, don't you like coming out?"

"We have something important to do this time, so let's focus on the business."

The serious look made Liao Quan feel a little funny.

"Okay, let's get down to business. Once I buy the antiques, I'll take you to Juxianglou for a feast."

"Daddy, will you treat us?"

"Ahem, where did Daddy get the money?"

Liao Quan almost choked.

Keqing sighed.

"So you still have to spend Keqing's little money?"

"Ahem, my good daughter, why don't you treat Daddy to a meal? It's rare for Daddy to go to Juxianglou for a meal."

In response to this, Mo Qing simply asked back: "If Dad used the money from selling antiques to eat, he could have eaten at Juxianglou hundreds of times."

"!!!"

Alas, my daughter is becoming less and less considerate. I really miss the soft and sweet daughter I used to be.

"Daddy, are you thinking that Keqing is not being well behaved?"

"How do you know... Hey! I don't think so!"

Liao Quan almost blurted out the words, but quickly stopped himself.

Keqing sighed helplessly. How could this stupid dad not be deceived?

However, it is really lively outside. Although the north is still suffering from the disaster, there is laughter and joy everywhere here.

Laughter and joy, which family is laughing, which family is suffering, joys and sorrows, separations and reunions are inevitable in this world.

A pair of glass pupils reflected the prosperity in front of them, seeming to accommodate everything, and yet seemed to have left nothing behind, which was lost bit by bit with every step.

As the sedan moved forward, the two, one big and one small, soon arrived at a very ordinary alley.

After Liao Quan got off the sedan chair, he wanted to carry his daughter down with him, but Keqing jumped down swiftly, completely ignoring her father's kindness, leaving Liao Quan with an embarrassed sigh.

My daughter is no longer clingy at all.

Keqing: If I hadn't wanted to sympathize with my dad, I wouldn't have let him hold me when I was a child.

"

Is this it? It’s very quiet, Daddy.”

"Well, I'm just an ordinary citizen. Where can I live? Didn't I tell you that they are short of money? Otherwise, how could I be so lucky?"

Seeing that her father was still so confident and seemed to completely believe that the antiques were real, Keqing just shook her head.

"Then how did Daddy meet them?"

"Hey, I can only say that I'm lucky. I was walking on Suzaku Street the other day, and I saw a woman selling herself to bury her father..."

Noticing Keqing's gaze, Liao Quan quickly spoke.

"Of course I ignored them and just gave them a few copper coins. Then I continued walking forward. Then I came to our Luoxiang Building and saw two women arguing over our merchandise. What a scene!"

"Daddy!"

"Ok?"

"Please stay focused! Don't say anything that has nothing to do with antiques!"

The little man emphasized and Liao Quan shook his head.

"Ah, it's sad that my good daughter doesn't care about what daddy is going through."

"If you'd been willing to take them out that day instead of sneaking around on your own, maybe they would have cared."

Okay...you're really petty.

Liao Quan didn't waste any words and told Keqing everything that had happened before. Keqing listened carefully. While Liao Quan held her hand, they headed towards their destination. After listening for a while, Keqing sorted out some of the nonsense and finally knew how her father had encountered this.

In short, a strolling dad accidentally bumped into a young man who had just come out of a pawnshop, and the scroll in his hand fell because of the collision with the dad.

Dad accidentally discovered Master Yiquan's silk screen on the scroll, then asked about it and unfolded it. He immediately found that it was a calligraphy work by Master Yiquan, and then he was delighted and wanted to buy it.

But the young man said that he wanted to pawn the painting to a pawn shop because his family was in urgent need of money.

Upon seeing this, Daddy hurried home to ask Mom for money but was refused. Then he asked the price again and learned that someone had taken a fancy to the scroll. They were very distressed and said that if Daddy didn't have the money to buy it, they would have to sell it to the other party.

Dad had no choice but to go home and ask kind, beautiful, smart and easy-going Keqing for money, which led to the current situation.

"That's it..."

My father was fooled by such a crude trick. I don't know how he became a minister...

Oh, mother said that dad became a minister purely by luck, and that he took good care of the little emperor when he was young, so he was remembered.

Oh, no problem then.

If daddy wasn't lucky, how could he have a beautiful mother and such a smart and lovely daughter like himself?

Keqing didn't notice the change in her thinking at all, and seemed to think that she was really smart and cute.

It seems that the influence of the environment is crucial. If people around talk more, the person at the center of the conversation will believe it and agree with it.

More importantly, the people who trust me are really cute and smart.

As they walked forward, there was a lot of dirty soil and some rotten leaves on the road. Liao Quan held Keqing's hand and walked forward nonchalantly, with eyes constantly coming from all around.

"This girl is so pretty, much prettier than my daughter."

"Yes, she is wearing really nice clothes. She must be from a wealthy family. Look, she is looking at us. Her eyes are really smart."

Keqing followed Liao Quan and seemed not to hear what was being said around her. Soon Liao Quan brought Keqing to a door.

At this moment, Keqing's ears moved, as if she heard something.

"Dad, wait for me, I'm leaving for a while."

Liao Quan was still surprised when he saw Keqing suddenly run over to a group of women who were chatting at the door.

"Hello, aunties. I'm Keqing..."

Liao Quan saw that his daughter was not far away and was just talking to those women, but he didn't know what she was talking about.

Does she know those people?

But after a while, Liao Quan saw these women laughing, and then pointing at Liao Quan, as if saying something. The daughter of the Erzi family nodded seriously, then waved her hand and ran back.

"Do you know those people?"

"I do not know!"

Then why did you start chatting with them? Liao Quan wanted to say something, but Keqing didn't speak to him. Instead, she pulled him and knocked on the door.
