Mr. Liang Bo is reborn with me

Chapter 22 The Road to Business

Ranxiang felt that their young lady's situation was really the worst among all the young ladies. The third and fourth young ladies at least had Aunt Zhou to rely on.

Aunt Zhou is so favored that the third and fourth ladies have more jewelry and clothes than Jiang Wenyue. Now Jiang Wenyue has to pawn some of them, making her look even more shabby.

"Anyway, I usually only wear those kinds of things. I'll keep them if I keep them. Okay, no need to say more, just pawn them."

"Okay." Ranxiang could only agree, hoping that the young lady's efforts this time would not be in vain.

Ranxiang walked out of the backyard just like she did when she helped Jiang Wenyue grab medicine last time. As a result, she met Grandma Sun who was returning from the backyard to grab medicine for Aunt Xu.

Although Grandma Sun is older, she has very good eyesight. She recognized Ranxiang immediately when she saw her: "Aren't you Ranxiang, the maid in the second lady's yard? What are you doing this early in the morning?"

"It turns out to be Grandma Sun. The lady asked me to go out and do some errands."

Grandma Sun looked at the box in Ranxiang's hand suspiciously. The box in Ranxiang's hand was not closed tightly because she was in a hurry. Ranxiang quickly closed the box tightly with her hands.

"Mother Sun, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Grandma Sun looked at Ranxiang's hurried away figure with confusion. Suddenly, she found an earring on the ground where Ranxiang had been just now.

This earring is not something valuable, it is just a silver earring set with an emerald.

Grandma Sun remembered that the box in Ranxiang's hand was not tightly closed just now, so she pressed it with her hand. She might have accidentally squeezed out her earring.

How could she vaguely remember that this earring was worn by the second lady?

Thinking of Ranxiang's hesitant look just now, could it really be the second lady's thing?

But, why did Ranxiang secretly take the second lady’s things outside?

Ranxiang was a maid who had been serving Jiang Wenyue since she was a child, so Aunt Sun would not suspect that Ranxiang's hands and feet were dirty, but he couldn't figure out the reason, so he could only tell Aunt Xu about it.

After a while, Ranxiang came back, panting and drinking several large gulps of water, and handed the silver bag to Jiang Wenyue.

"Miss, I've been to several pawn shops, and this is the highest bidder."

"By the way, miss, I accidentally lost an earring. I searched all the way but couldn't find it. I'm sorry..."

"Just throw it away."

Jiang Wenyue opened it and saw that it was one hundred taels of silver. Among all the jewelry she had, she only saw one hundred taels. Thinking about it carefully, it was expected. Those jewelry were old, and none of them were particularly valuable. One hundred taels was about the same.

.

"Miss, I have tried my best."

Ranxiang's voice was a little low. The lady worked so hard to save money. If she didn't do her best, she would be too worried.

"It's okay. You must be tired from this trip. Sit down and have a good rest."

Jiang Wenyue put all the one hundred taels of silver into the box. Now she has saved up to five hundred taels. Normally, it would cost at least one thousand taels to open a shop and purchase goods. So, half of the money is still missing.

She racked her brains and gave away all the valuable things around her, but she only had 500 taels. What should she do with the remaining 500 taels?

Just as Jiang Wenyue was calculating, a maid came in from outside: "Miss, Grandma Sun from Aunt Xu's yard just sent a message, asking you to go to Aunt Xu's yard."

"What do you want from me?" Jiang Wenyue closed the box and immediately came to Aunt Xu's yard.
