Chapter 16 The pawnshop was robbed
"Old lady, it's a villain who makes things difficult for you. Living is cheaper, and living is more expensive. This is the rule. Besides, there is a crack in this jade pendant, so I'm afraid it's been knocked accidentally." The shopkeeper pointed and smiled, "The carving craftsman is not worth mentioning. For the sake of County Magistrate An, add a few more taels. If I die, I will be scolded by my boss and give you fifty taels of silver."
"Nothing nonsense, how can there be any cracks?" Old Mrs. An shook her head: "If you don't die, if you don't die, you won't die, you won't die, too few."
The shopkeeper pushed the jade pendant in front of her and said kindly: "That won't work, why don't you try another family?"
Other family? He is the only one who dominates this ghost place, so where is there another family? This is clearly a robbery! Old Mrs. An was so angry that she shivered but couldn't do anything. She wanted to leave with the jade pendant in anger. The only grandson in the family was waiting to buy medicine to help her. If she followed the unscrupulous businessman, she would really not be able to bear this tone, and the thirteen taels of silver was really not enough to buy medicine for Maomao.
An Yi saw the greed and calculations in the shopkeeper's eyes clearly, and said coldly: "Da Chaofeng, this jade pendant is worth at least a few hundred taels of silver. Although the pawnshop is a huge profit, it is not a slaughter like this. If we don't take it, let's give up our face and don't look for someone to mortgage it. Borrowing money is better than being slaughtered like this."
After she reminded her, Old Lady An immediately became energetic and said in a full voice: "Yes, yes, I'll take it to find Chen Dahu or the county magistrate." As she said that, she was about to collect the jade pendant.
"It's OK." The shopkeeper made a gesture to walk in without caring.
Old Mrs. An knew that she was comparing her momentum at this moment. She took the jade pendant and walked out. Because she was still waiting for the shopkeeper to call her back and negotiate the price, she did not take it back. Who would have thought that two big men in red and green suddenly walked in from outside, and took the jade pendant from her hand and shouted: "I owe debts and pay back the money! An Baoliang owed us not to pay back the money, so I will pay the debt for the time being!"
The incident broke out, and both Mrs. An Yi was shocked. When the taste came back, she immediately went forward to grab the jade pendant. An Yi reacted quickly and hurriedly grabbed the old colum on the jade pendant and refused to let go. Old Mrs. An was tough, so she greeted the two big men with the vine-wood crutches in her hand and cursed loudly: "Where did the crazy gang come from? How dare you rob the female family of the official family in broad daylight! Are you not afraid of suing?"
The two big men pushed An Yi to the ground with just a push, then took Old Lady An's crutch and threw it away, shouting: "Fear! Fear! County Magistrate An is afraid that he is more afraid than us! It is natural to pay back the money he borrows from us. If he can't afford to pay back, he should use things to pay off the debt. His wife and daughter are the officials' relatives, and we dare not move the house we live in is the county government. We can't sell it. Isn't it just to use this thing to pay off the debt?"
This is a family heirloom and also Maomao’s life-saving money. How can I take it away for them without any clarity? Old Mrs. An opened her eyes and rushed forward and hugged the arm of the man holding the jade pendant, and screamed shrillly: "Who knows where you are? Return me to the jade pendant! Return me to the jade pendant! This is life-saving money!"
The man in a red robe sneered and took off her hand, saying, "Bandit?! I will not change my name or surname. The person in the east of the city is called Wang Hu! I borrowed money from me and dared not pay it back yet!" After saying that, he pushed Old Lady An and left with her jade pendant.
Old Mrs. An hit her head against the door frame, and her head was bleeding, but she didn't care. She opened her hands and shouted and cried bitterly on the street: "Bandit! Return my jade pendant! It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!" Before An Yi came to support her, she had already rolled her eyes upwards, and her eyes were crooked and her mouth fell straight to the ground.
"Grandmother, grandmother!" This is a sign of a stroke! An Yi was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat when she thought of what the medical book said. She quickly put Old Lady An flat and pinched Old Lady An among the people who were struggling to get her into the housekeeper and the clerk who was watching the fun in the pawnshop: "Help us! My brother is waiting at home for the money to buy medicine to help her."
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper and the clerk just shook their heads and advised her: "Miss An, since Ling Zun owes them money, don't say much, just go and get the IOU back as soon as possible."
Seeing that they were determined to help, An Yi had to look at the people around him again. Before he could speak, someone heard someone whisper: "No wonder the county magistrate An is getting poorer and poorer. It turned out that he had provoked Wang Hu who put the money on the seal. He was also confused. How could this Wang Hu be easy to get along with? Who in this city dares to provoke him?"
"Wang Hu is a cousin of the Huang family of Feilongguan. He is used to being rampant and domineering, and even the county magistrate doesn't take it seriously. Some days ago, someone forced his family to be destroyed, and no one dared to come out and say a word. County Magistrate An was so poor that he went to provoke him."
County Magistrate An borrowed the money from Yinzi? An Yi was so tired that she could not cry. Didn’t he know that? Yinzi money was paid back three times; profits were profitable every year; borrowed in a year, repaying it for ten years; and in a few lifetimes, it was endless! He was not only poor and he also owed usury on credit! And to the point of these people, Wang Hu was still a rich man who could not be offended.
An Yi had no choice but to ask a woman who was watching the fun nearest to her: "Auntie, please help me go to the county magistrate to find An County, and then said that my grandmother fell and fainted, so she asked him to come over quickly." Another young man asked: "Please run to the clinic for me and ask Aunt Wu to come for treatment, can you?"
The woman and the young man were about to hide in the crowd, but An Yi came to him directly and had to respond helplessly. An Yi hurriedly thanked him. At this time, the pawnshop and the shopkeeper saw a group of people surrounding her door and making a fuss. They were worried that Old Lady An would die here with a bad luck, so they took the initiative to provide a spring stool and warm tea, and prepared to come forward to help An Yi help Old Lady An up and put it on the spring stool.
"Thank you for your enthusiastic help from neighbors." An Yi quickly blessed everyone and declined: "I heard in daily life that the old man suddenly fainted and fell to the ground and couldn't move it at will. If unfortunately he had a stroke, it would be rare to get rid of it inappropriately."
Everyone knew that she often walked around Wu Jing's clinic. After hearing this, she felt that it made some sense, and she didn't dare to act rashly and cause trouble, so she just watched from the side. I don't know whether the person who went to send the message to An Yi lost the message, or whether An Yi was worried about Mrs. An Yi's illness and felt that time passed too slowly. The more An Yi waited, she became more and more anxious, but she was afraid that if she was delayed for a long time, she would make her defecation or die, which would make her worse.
Coincidentally, Wu Jing taught her how to first aid a stroke patient yesterday. She also practiced on human models for a long time and should not recognize the wrong acupoints. Thinking about it, An Yi trembled and took out the needle box given by Wu Jing yesterday and decided to give Mrs. An first aid.
When everyone saw An Yi take out the silver needle, they whispered, and everything they said, the most of which was doubt. A tall boy about fifteen or sixteen years old, handsome and handsome, and wearing a blue shirt watched the excitement with great interest. He heard the incident clearly. When he encountered something he didn't understand, he did not forget to ask the people around him for a word or two. After listening to the story of the An family, the young man in blue shook his head and hugged his arms and said, "Little girl, you have thought about it. This is human life. Don't do anything randomly. Who is responsible for any incident?"
