In an instant, the price doubled.

Shen Pian quickly stopped his brother who was gnashing his teeth. He smiled apologetically at the woman and said, "Girl, my brother is outspoken. Don't take it to heart."

At this time, he couldn't help but resent Shen Yaoyao for selling it at such a low price and signing such a contract.

The initiative is not in one's own hands, so it is difficult to end things as planned.

Xu Yang sneered coldly, "Don't use outspokenness as an excuse for not being smart. Who are the Shen family? They are getting wild with my master."

He has disliked the Shen family for a long time.

The sarcastic remarks made at this time were quite meant to avenge a private vendetta. Who allowed them to bully the young lady like that before?

Shen Chi was angry, "Then who are you?! You are just a dog under this woman's hands."

"When the master is talking to the guests, is there any place for you to interrupt?"

He used to be favored wherever he went, but now that the Shen family is in decline, those who flatter him now shun him like snakes and scorpions.

Now even the owner of a small pawnshop dares to step on his head and say those words. It is really deceiving.

Shen Pian wanted to stop him, but unfortunately, according to Shen Chi's fiery temperament, he didn't care about his second brother's reminder and finished his sentence in one go.

He turned to look at the woman on the main seat.

Sure enough, his eyes were a bit colder.

"It's not the turn of an outsider to teach the people under my command." The woman seemed to have lost her patience, her voice as cold as a cold pond.

"Four million taels of gold. When you two young masters can get it, come to my Yongning pawn shop."

"see a visitor out."

It was said that they were seeing guests off, but in fact, a few strong men forcibly threw the rambunctious Shen Chi out. Shen Pian was pushed out respectfully because of her inconvenient legs and feet.

Before leaving.

Shen Pian's eyes were fixed on the woman. He gritted his teeth and shouted unwillingly, "Miracle doctor!"

It's a pity that the person in charge was still stroking the cat in his arms, as if he didn't hear him, and completely ignored him.

outside.

Shen Chi was still yelling, "Second brother, that woman is really too much. When she opened her mouth, it turned into four million taels of gold. I think she is crazy!"

"Shut up."

"Second brother..."

"I told you to shut up!"

The words that were almost shouted made Shen Chi successfully silence. He looked at the redness in the man's eyes uneasily.

Suddenly I regretted arguing with that woman.

Unlike his eldest brother who is gentle on the surface, his second brother has a good temper deep down. Except when it comes to his legs, it is rare to see him lose his temper like this.

But now...

Realizing that she had lost her composure, Shen Pian took a deep breath, then forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry, second brother didn't mean to hurt you."

Shen Chi took the initiative to push the wheelchair, "I should say I'm sorry, I was too upset just now."

"Second brother, what should we do now?"

Shen Pian's fierce voice drove him back to his senses. The woman was definitely not kidding when she said it would rise to four million taels of gold.

But where does the family have so much money?

Shen Pian sighed helplessly, "Let's go back first."

His mind is so confused now. That woman, whether she talks or dresses, is very similar to the miracle doctor.

However, every time the miracle doctor diagnoses him, she always wears a veil. Apart from the feeling in his heart, he has no other way to confirm that she is the miracle doctor.

Inside the pawn shop.

"Miss, this is amazing."

Xu Yang curiously touched the human skin mask in his hand. Whether it was the touch of the skin or a closer look, this face was exactly the same as a real person.

You can't tell it's fake at all.

Gu Tang stopped wiping her skin, looked at the person behind her through the bronze mirror, and said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, do you want to try it?"

Xu Yang shook his head, "No."

He still felt a little scary with a strange mask on his face.

Putting down the human skin mask and looking at the familiar face in the bronze mirror, Xu Yang was a little puzzled, "Miss, why don't you show your true face?"

For an adopted daughter with a vicious mind, he gave up such an excellent biological daughter. Personally speaking, he especially wanted to see the Shen family regretting it.

Gu Tang said calmly: "Now is not the time."

Now, it has just begun.

She doesn't need to show all her cards.

Xu Yang had always believed in Gu Tang. If she said it wasn't the right time, then it was definitely not the right time yet. However, thinking of Shen Chi's behavior just now, he felt a little unsure.

"Miss, can the Shen family really hand over four million taels of gold willingly?"

Gu Tang curled his lips sarcastically, "If we don't redeem the reward, Shen Yaoyao will be in jail until New Year's Eve."

"By the way, do you have any clues about what happened in prison?"

Xu Yang frowned, "The people guarding the female prisoner now are all Du Kang's cronies. People from the secret chamber can't get in for the time being."

I heard he was a close associate of Du Kang.

Gu Tang was relieved. She had seen the processing speed of Jingzhao Mansion that day. With Du Kang here, Shen Yaoyao would definitely go back to make up the remaining sentence after she was fine.

I'm not afraid that she will get away with it.

In the next two days, the Shen family kept sending people to the door to plead for mercy. Shen Changshan even tied up Shen Chi and knelt at the door of the pawn shop, hoping that Xu Yang could lower the ransom.

Xu Yang got Gu Tang's advice and directly increased the amount from four million to five million.

When the Shen family saw it, they dared to come again.

Ye Ru was pressing hard, and Shen Changshan was forced to do nothing. He first sold a hilltop in Nanshan, and then sold off the remaining shops.

Then he pawned all the valuable things in the house, including antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and bracelets, and sold them for a lot of money.

Finally, they found several famous businessmen in Kyoto and reluctantly divided the management rights of the new jade mine.

Only then did I finally collect the five million taels of gold.

After these hectic days, the day quickly came to the day when Zhaoge's new students were admitted.

This year there is a new rule, and parents of students are not allowed to enter. Compared with the bustling crowds in previous years, Zhaoge's pavilions are very clean.

When Gu Tang arrived, the room was full of heads. Her eyes fell on a weak little face, and there was no surprise in her eyes.

However, the boys and girls in the room instantly became excited because of her arrival.

"What is that ugly Gu Tang doing here? She won't be admitted to Zhaoge too, right?"

"Are you kidding? She used to be a poor student at the bottom of the school, and she also had a history of stealing exam papers."

"I heard that she was kept by a powerful old man. It's not surprising that she came in."

"Yao Yao, is it true?"

A bitter smile appeared on Shen Yaoyao's weak face, "My family has severed ties with my sister, and I don't know much about it."

Without positive denial, it becomes an indisputable fact in the ears of others.

"That old man has really unique taste. He can even swallow an ugly monster like Gu Tang."
