Chapter 509: Chapter 508: So Pan’er knows everything!_1
He felt all over his body and found nothing. He couldn’t help but tap his head in annoyance, but his fingers touched the jade hairpin he used to secure his hair.
He pulled it off in one smooth motion, this was the only valuable thing he had left on him.
It seemed he had no choice but to pawn this item for some silver to get by!
Thinking about how Pan’er had personally chosen this item for him, he felt a sense of reluctance.
However, when he thought of Pan’er, who was currently pregnant and starving, eagerly awaiting his return with food, he succumbed to reality. Grinding his teeth, he entered a pawnshop.
From the moment Qin Yi left the inn, Su Pan’er followed him silently.
She watched as he frantically searched his body, finding nothing of value. Then, he took off the jade hairpin from his hair and struggled for a while before finally steeling himself to enter a pawnshop.
Could it be that he wanted to pawn that jade hairpin?
This scene caused Su Pan’er to furrow her brows.
However, soon after, Qin Yi came out again: "This is outrageous! Only one tael of silver for this jade hairpin? I would rather lose it than pawn it!"
He remembered clearly that Pan’er had spent several hundred taels of silver for this jade hairpin!
And they were offering only one tael?
This was no different from robbery!
An old man with a goat’s beard and bushy eyebrows stormed out of the pawnshop.
"Huh! Poor devil, giving you one tael is already showing you respect. Why don’t you try another pawnshop and see if anyone offers a higher price? Hmph!" he sneered.
"You! You....."
As a county magistrate, how could Qin Yi not understand the intricacies of this?
These so-called pawnshops have complex connections; in reality, they are all interwoven. If one shop offers one tael of silver, even if he switched to ten others, the price would be the same!
Angry, he stormed off, quickly disappearing into the distance.
Su Pan’er glanced at the smug, sharp-tongued old man with the goat beard and squinted her eyes.
She casually kicked a stone.
The old man, who was about to return to his shop, suddenly collapsed uncontrollably onto his knees in the direction Qin Yi had left.
He struggled to get up, but couldn’t. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead as he screamed for help, quickly drawing a crowd.
Su Pan’er had a smile in her eyes as she followed after Qin Yi.
This time, Qin Yi didn’t enter the pawnshop but went into a small alley.
The alley was narrow, so Su Pan’er didn’t dare to follow too closely. Unexpectedly, although the alley was small, it had many branches. After not following too far, Su Pan’er lost sight of him.
She frantically searched around in these web-like alleys. After a long and fruitless search, she could only return in disappointment.
Lifting her head, she was startled to see Qin Yi walking out of a farmer’s house with a large bowl.
This gave her quite a shock!
Fortunately, there was a crossroads behind her, so she quickly hid.
Was this what they call finding something without even looking for it?
Qin Yi did not see her, and was talking to an old woman with white hair and a walking stick.
"Madam, no need to thank me anymore. If anything, I should be thanking you. You lent me your pot and let me use some of your firewood. Please keep this meat and vegetables for yourself to eat..."
Seeing Qin Yi thanking her and holding the prepared food as he left, Su Pan’er felt her eyes moisten.
She couldn’t help wanting to laugh, yet her heart felt sour!
He actually thought of this method!
Watching Qin Yi’s hustling figure as he headed back, Su Pan’er blinked away the tears in her eyes and followed Qin Yi back to the inn.
"Pan’er! I asked the kitchen to whip up some red silk braised ribs and two poached eggs for you. Sorry for the wait! Come and taste, see if it suits your taste. Pan’er..."
Before even entering the room, Qin Yi called out cheerily with a wide grin.
He pushed the door open and swiftly arranged the bowl and chopsticks.
But it was Su Pan’er who walked in from outside the door.
With a serious expression, she asked, "Where have you been?" as she stared into his eyes.
"I spent a bit of time preparing the braised ribs for you. Where did you go? It’s so cold outside, don’t wander around, be careful not to catch a cold."
Without any suspicion, Qin Yi assists her into a seat and hands her a pair of bamboo chopsticks.
Su Pan’er looks closely at the food in the bowl.
When she lifted the overturned bowl, a surge of fragrant soup covering a bowl of white rice permeated the air. A golden-yellow layer of ribs sits on top, alongside thumb-sized chunks of taro, some pickled carrot dices, and two golden-yellow poached eggs, enticing great appetite.
Su Pan’er stared at the bowl, remaining motionless.
"What’s wrong, Pan’er? Why aren’t you eating? Hurry up, it won’t taste good once it cools."
Qin Yi urged her.
"What about you? Have you eaten yet?"
"I ate before coming back to the room. You eat quickly. Don’t just sit there."
He pushes the bowl closer to Su Pan’er, gets up smiling and says, "I’ll go get some hot water." He then grabs the kettle and heads to the door.
"Wait til later. We’re eating now and the hot water would cool down anyways."
Su Pan’er doesn’t expose his lie. Instead she grabs onto his clothes, preventing him from leaving. "This is too much, I can’t finish it all. Why don’t we each eat half?"
"How can I eat if I’m full? You..."
"Even if you’re full, eat some more. Sit down!"
Su Pan’er forcefully pulls him back, dividing the food into two portions, and slides one portion over to him. "Hurry up and eat. Once you’re full, I’ll take you to earn some money."
As she says this, she smugly blinks at him.
The taste wasn’t salty or bland. It wasn’t particularly good, but also not bad. It was typical Qin Yi cooking. But the taste was especially delicious at that moment.
Earn money?
The talk of money made Qin Yi halt in his speech. He sat there in silence, eating.
In the face of a completely unfamiliar environment, he was very curious about how Pan’er planned to earn money.
Su Pan’er didn’t care about his thoughts. After leisurely finishing her meal, she washed up, then lay down and had a nice afternoon nap. She didn’t seem to notice Qin Yi’s anxiousness.
Only after waking up and seeing Qin Yi’s resentful gaze, did Su Pan’er chuckle to herself.
"You’re not a piteous wife in the depth of the boudoir, why are your eyes filled with such resentment?"
She got up and started tidying her appearance.
"Isn’t it all thanks to you."
Seeing only a few hundred Wen left from grocery shopping in his hands, and she had said she knew how to earn money before going to sleep cheerfully. Qin Yi wanted to ask but feared disturbing her. He felt on edge, like a cat was scratching at his heart. His eyes were full of resentment!
"Chuckle! Okay, I’ll stop teasing you. Let’s go out for a walk."
Su Pan’er got up and walked out: "This time I will take it as a punishment for deceiving me. If it happens again, I’ll let you have it!"
With that, she walked out of the room.
Qin Yi’s eyebrows twitched!
Turns out, Pan’er knew everything!
His face flushed as he hurried to catch up with her, "Pan’er, I... It was my fault, I..."
He wanted to explain further but seeing her fierce gaze, he was at a loss for words!
