There was only one pawnshop in the town. The shopkeeper was wearing glasses, and there was only one clerk in the shop. When he saw Wei Liu enter, he quickly came up to welcome him.
"Are you pawning something?" The shop assistant was very clever, so he would not look down on others.
"That's right. Where's the shopkeeper?" Wei Liu replied.
"Can I take a look first? If it really doesn't work, let the shopkeeper see it again." The shop assistant replied with a smile.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Didn't you hear me tell you to get lost?”Wei Liu walked directly to the counter.
"Shopkeeper, help me take a look at this gold watch.”Wei Liu handed the gold watch that Lai Guochao had given her to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the gold watch and looked at it before replying," You've used this watch for a long time. Look, there are scratches here. Miss, are you going to die or live?"”
"What do you mean dead or alive? It's just seven dollars. One more or one less.”Wei Liu directly replied. She didn't know anything about the underground organization's twists and turns.
These words frightened the shopkeeper. He hurriedly said to the waiter,"Zhu Zi, close the door."”
"Sigh, alright, Uncle." The pillar closed the door.
"Close the door? What do you want?" Wei Liu's gaze became unfriendly.
"I'm sorry, miss. Who handed this to you? Where is he? How is it?" The shopkeeper apologized to Wei Liu. It was already past the street time, and now it wasn't them who delivered the things. They were probably already doomed.
"Give me something? Oh, his name was Lai Guochao. If he was alive, he should be dead. If he wasn't dead, he should have fallen into the hands of the Japanese.”Wei Liu replied.
" No, our comrades will never live in disgrace. Miss, it's all thanks to you this time. This thing is too important to us." The shopkeeper knelt on the ground. He knew that Wei Liu was helping out voluntarily.
"Shopkeeper, don't be like this.”Although Wei Liu didn't know what it was, it was definitely something big. She didn't expect that she would do such a good thing. This was something she would never have thought of in the past.
"Shopkeeper, open the door. It's me. Little Wang, why did you close the door?”Little Wang, who was shot while lying down, felt that he must have not looked at the almanac when he went out. Where did this bandit come from? She knocked him down in a few moves and even snatched his Innocent Citizen Certificate and money bag. Fortunately, the puppet soldiers at the door still recognized him. Otherwise, he would have been killed as a spy.
"Little Wang is here. He's one of us. Zhu Zi, open the door.”The shopkeeper stood up and let Zhu Zi open the door.
"Xiao Wang, how did you become like this? What happened?”When Zhu Zi saw Little Wang's appearance, he immediately laughed out loud.
"Don't say anymore. I don't know what happened, but I was robbed by a woman on the way. It was her. She came over and hit me.”Little Wang replied casually. However, the moment he saw Wei Liu, his expression was as if he had seen a queen insect. He ran behind the pillar.
"This? What's going on?" The innkeeper asked Wei Liu why he had beaten up Little Wang.
Wei Liu stuck out his tongue in embarrassment and said cutely," I couldn't get in, so I…"
"Is this considered being shot while lying down? Oh right, return my money.”Little Wang still remembered his money bag.
"Hmph, I'll return it to you. You're so stingy.”Wei Liu took out Little Wang's money bag and threw it back to him.
"I didn't even say anything when I was hit by you, but you still have an opinion.”Little Wang complained again.
"This girl, I still don't know your name. What's your name?”The shopkeeper glared at Little Wang, indicating that he could shut up.
"Wei Liu, I don't know how to write it.”Wei Liu didn't know how to read, but he still knew what his name was.
"Thank you, Miss Wei. Please wait for me.”The shopkeeper went in and asked Wei Liu to wait.
"I can't thank you enough for your kindness. This money is my token of gratitude. Don't stand on ceremony. Take it!" The shopkeeper's money bag looked quite bulging. It seemed like he had quite a lot of money. At least dozens of dollars! This was a huge sum of money at this time.
Wei Liu didn't stand on ceremony. She didn't have any money on her, and she still had two little turnips. At least she had promised him, so she should take them with her. People had to find something to do, right?
Since he had something to say, Wei Liu wasn't that kind of person who didn't know his place. Wasn't he just a bunch of people? He was being very mysterious.
After Wei Liu went out, he went to buy roast chicken, steamed buns, and cut three catties of beef. Then, he left the town. These puppet soldiers were very well-behaved. He didn't know who led the soldiers.
"Brother, I'm hungry." Mitsuyoko looked at Eryoko and said.
"Eat, eat, eat. I just want to eat. Wait, Sister Wei Liu will definitely be back soon.”Er Lai reprimanded his younger brother unhappily. It was almost afternoon, how could he not be hungry?
Just as the two of them were looking forward to it, Wei Liu came back with a basket. He would definitely bring back delicious food. The two of them hurriedly went up to him.
"Sister Wei, it smells so good. This is roast chicken.”In this era, it was not easy to eat meat. Although it was expensive, Wei Liu was very happy. This was something that she could not experience in the village. Perhaps her past was too narrow. She should open up and see the outside world more, and stay away from the man who broke her heart.
"Eat, there's everything. You must be hungry. Sister bought a lot.”Seeing the smiles on their faces, Wei Liu felt warm in his heart.
Just like that, Wei Liu brought the two of them to live in a rundown temple outside Xue Clan Town. She even sold her horse and taught Er Lai and San Lai martial arts every day. Although Er Lai and San Lai were past the best age to learn martial arts, it was not a problem for them to learn a few moves for self-defense. Horse stance was the most interesting.
On the eve of the Lunar New Year, Li Zihao of Nine Dragon Mountain held a feast. He ate meat and drank wine with his brothers, Li Yunlong, and the others. Wei Liu brought Er Lai and San Lai to celebrate the New Year in a dilapidated temple. Although the temple was dilapidated, it was cleaned up by the three of them and couplets were pasted on it. Er Lai, who was cooking tonight, of course had to have dumplings. Wei Liu also bought some wine. She had not drunk it since she left the village. She just wanted to drink some this time.
In the past, she had spent the New Year in the village. She missed her father, but at the same time, she hated Li Zihao. That kind of love-hate relationship sometimes made her feel mentally and physically exhausted.
