Chapter 156 - Qicao Pawnshop (2/2)

Chu Tao answered without thinking, ”It's Qicao Pawnshop. There's a pawnshop in the capital that has been given a title by the palace. The people feel that they're more reliable, so the pawnshops in the capital have been in a slump for the past few years. Only our family is still holding on.”

As she said this, she was a little indignant. ”That pawnshop actually specializes in swindling. I don't know why the palace gave it to them.”

Su Yan did not say anything. She picked up the cup and took a sip.

What other reason could it be? There was someone behind it. It seemed like this was the shop of that imperial relative.

The only prince that still existed in the palace was the current emperor. It went without saying who the owner of this pawnshop was.

Su Yan put down the cup and said, ”Let's go. We'll go to the pawnshop to take a look.”

Chu Tao naturally had no objections.

If the two of them wanted to go to the Su family's Qicao Pawnshop, they would have to pass by the pawnshop that was licensed by the imperial family.

Su Yan looked up and saw the words 'Imperial Pawnshop' written carelessly on the sign.

They were really afraid that others would not know.

With such a delay, she coincidentally bumped into an old woman who was pushed out by the pawnshop staff.

The old woman's expression was a little agitated. She took out the bracelet in her hand and said, ”This bracelet isn't mine. Please take a look again. This bracelet isn't mine.”

The person pushing was a young man with a pointy mouth and monkey cheeks. He crossed his arms and said mockingly, ”I saw you enter our pawnbroker with this bracelet. If It's not yours, then whose is it?”

The old woman fell to her knees with a plop, she said, ”This really isn't mine. My bracelet is our family's heirloom. My child was forced to take it out to pawn because he was sick. My child is still waiting for this money to save his life.”

The young man said impatiently, ”Take your bracelet and get lost. We don't accept this kind of thing at the pawnshop.”

The old woman's expression was even more desperate. She kept crying and complaining that this was not her bracelet.

The young man saw more and more people surrounding him. A flash of anger appeared in his eyes. He kicked away the old woman's hand that was grabbing his pants.

The old woman was kicked to the ground.. The bracelet in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.
