Then he walked into the imperial city among the common people.

After entering the imperial city, Hong Shuangshuang came to the street and saw people coming and going in the street early in the morning.

There are hawking sounds everywhere.

Hong Shuangshuang couldn't help but smile. Seeing the scene in front of her, Hong Shuangshuang took a deep breath. She hadn't seen so many people in a long time.

At that time, Hong Shuangshuang ran to a small stall selling jewelry and was attracted by the things on display. They were all so beautiful.

At that moment, Hong Shuangshuang was suddenly hit by someone. Her brows furrowed and she covered her sore arm and said, "Who is it? Did you use your eyes?"

"Miss, you can't make a mistake. You can't make a mistake. He did it on purpose." A young voice was heard saying.

Hong Shuangshuang turned her head and saw a teenage boy with unkempt face looking at her with frightened eyes and apologizing to her.

Seeing this, Hong Shuangshuang couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then said, "It's okay, it's okay, let me go."

"Thank you, thank you." After saying that, the little boy quickly ran to the side and disappeared into the crowd after a while.

At that time, the owner of the jewelry stall asked Hong Shuangshuang, "Girl, do you have anything you like? If you have something you like, you can take it with you to look at it."

"Oh, no, thank you, boss." Hong Shuangshuang turned around and waved her leg at the owner of the jewelry stall. Then she said and walked aside.

Not far after Hong Shuangshuang walked out, there was a man selling candied haws on a stick walking beside her while hawking.

Hong Shuangshuang looked at the big red candied haws on the man's shoulder and couldn't help but swallowed.

Then he stopped the man selling candied haws on a stick, "Old man, how can I sell my candied haws on a stick?"

"Girl, can his candied haws on a stick be big and sweet? It's so popular. I'd like to ask for two cents." I saw the old man selling the candied haws on a stick smiling at Hong Shuangshuang and saying.

After hearing this, Hong Shuangshuang nodded, and then said, "Well, let's get him two skewers."

"Girl, give it to me." The old man who was selling candied haws took two bunches from outside and handed them to Hong Shuangshuang.

After Hong Shuangshuang took it, she ate one in big gulps.

"Girl, how does it taste?" The old man looked at Hong Shuangshuang and asked.

Hong Shuangshuang nodded with satisfaction, "Yeah, it's very sweet and delicious."

"Girl, two strings of juice are worth four cents." The old man smiled and said immediately.

Hong Shuangshuang listened. At that time, I touched my leg to the purse hanging on my waist, and saw that he couldn't touch anything. His face couldn't help but froze, and then he lowered his head and touched left and right.

Her purse is missing!

When the old man saw this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he immediately said, "Girl, I am not without money, right?"

Hong Shuangshuang touched her cuffs again at that time. Yes, she remembered that she put the purse on her waist. Could it be that it would fall off? How could it not be there

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, the little boy who bumped into her just now!

Wrong, that little boy must have stolen her wallet!

"That old man, his wallet seems to have been stolen..." Hong Shuangshuang said while looking at the old man selling candied haws.

Before he could finish speaking, the old man selling candied haws on a stick interrupted him and said loudly, "He said, girl, I don't have enough money to buy things. His is a small business, and the whole family depends on him." I make a living by eating candied haws, and I must give him money tomorrow.”

"Then... can you please give me the candied haws on a stick?" Hong Shuangshuang couldn't help but feel at a loss when she heard the old man say that, and then handed the candied haws of fruit to the old man.

Unexpectedly, the old man looked at Hong Shuangshuang and said, "He said, girl, I have eaten all the candied haws, who should I ask him to sell it to?"

"Please don't do that. Wait until Dongci. When Dongci comes to the imperial city, he will definitely give me a lot of money. I think that's okay?" Hong Shuangshuang looked at the candied haws that she had taken a bite of, and then thought about it. Dong, said the old man.

The old man said at this moment, "No, if I leave, where will he find me? He must find a way to give me money now."

At that time, more and more people were gathering around, and Hong Shuangshuang couldn't help but become anxious. This was not the first time she had encountered such a thing, so what should she do? what to do

Hong Shuangshuang looked anxious at this time.

The old man glanced at the jade bracelet on Hong Shuangshuang's leg, and then said, "Please don't do that. The girl can use the jade bracelet on her leg as a mortgage. After the girl gets the money back, he will return the jade bracelet." Very good to me, how about it?"

Hearing what the old man selling candied haws on a stick said, Hong Shuangshuang quickly covered the bracelet on her leg. The bracelet on her body was not left by her mother, so she begged her to mortgage it. How could she do it.

Now she has a bracelet all over her body.

At that moment, Hong Shuangshuang looked at the old man and said, "Old man, I think that's okay? That bracelet was left behind by his mother. Put it with the old man. The old man must keep the bracelet for him until he goes back." After I got the money, I came to see my old man in exchange for it. Do I think that will work?"

After hearing this, the old man hesitated slightly and then nodded, "He doesn't force others to do things. If not, that's fine. Miss Bu Nao can ask for the money to be sent to him in three days. After three days, , the bracelet belongs to him."

Hearing what the old man selling candied haws said, Hong Shuangshuang couldn't help but frown, and then looked at the bracelet in her leg.

Although she didn't want the bracelet to leave her for a moment, she had no choice but to do it.

Then Hong Shuangshuang nodded and slowly took the bracelet off her leg.

At that time, he took another look and was about to hand the jade bracelet to the old man.

I heard a voice coming from the crowd at that time.

"Wait!"

Hearing the sound, Hong Shuangshuang asked for help.

I saw a handsome young man walking through the crowd.

The young man walked straight to Hong Shuangshuang and then looked at the old man selling candied haws, "How much does she owe me?"

"Then Wei Yuanzi is not four-literate." The old man said to the young man at that time.

The young man couldn't help but snorted coldly after hearing this, and then said, "Old man, I am really greedy. For only four cents, I asked the lady to use the jade bracelet she was waiting for as collateral."

"Well, Wei Yuanzi, you can't say that, but Wei Yuniang did it voluntarily, and he promised her to come and pay the money in three days. If you don't believe me, I can ask Wei Yuniang." The old man shut up when the young man heard this. , couldn't help but look a little unhappy, and then said.

Hong Shuangshuang nodded at this time, looked at the young man and said, "Thank you for your kindness, that... that was not done voluntarily, it's the matter of old man Bucheng."

"Please don't do that. He paid the money for the girl, so the girl doesn't have to keep the jade bracelet there. When the time comes, the girl can just give him the money. How about that?" The young man looked at Hong Shuangshuang and said.
