C27 Entering the City to Pawn
When they finally arrived at the city gate, Ning Silian and Ning Huai got off the car at the same time.
Because Gulo City was the imperial city, it was heavily guarded, and every person who entered and exited had to carefully inspect it before they were allowed to enter.
Dongqing led the oxcart ahead of them. Because of his frequent visits and the way they treated him, the guards let him into the city after a few simple questions.
It was Ning Silian's first time entering the city. She looked at the majestic city gate tower and held Ning Huai's hand, not daring to look up as they followed behind Dong Qing.
As expected, when the two guards guarding the city gate saw Ning Silian for the first time, they frowned and stopped her.
"This young lady, what is she doing in the city?"
Everyone loved beauty, not to mention at such a tedious time, when meeting such a person who was loved by others, the guard's face relaxed and became a lot more enthusiastic.
"I, I …" Ning Silian was so nervous that she was at a loss for words. She wanted to stop Dong Qing who was walking in front.
Dong Qing had already passed by. When she turned around, she couldn't see the two of them. Only now did she see that the guards had stopped the two siblings. She hurriedly caught up.
"Master, this is the Ning Family siblings who came with me, I hope that you can make an exception for them."
"Oh, so you know them?"
"Reporting to the lord, our family lives in the Village Liu, today I brought them here to purchase a few things."
One of the guards looked Ning Silian up and down, then glanced at Dong Qing. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, and stretched out a hand towards Dong Qing, "Since you are here with me, then go in. We must leave the city when you are young!"
Dongqing took out three bronze coins from her breast pocket and handed them over to him. "Yes, we will definitely leave the city when the time comes!" He pulled the siblings into the city.
Dong Qing and the guard's actions were clearly seen by Ning Silian. It seemed that corruption and corruption had existed since ancient times. She couldn't help but feel apologetic. "I'm sorry, Brother Dong Qing. I've let you spend so much!"
When Dong Qing heard this, his body paused. He rubbed the back of his head and said, "It's fine. You don't need to take it to heart." He then pointed to the left, "That way is West Market, you can go there to buy things." Saying that, he pointed to the right, "I'll go and deliver the things Third Old Master Lee wants first. After a while, I'll wait for you at the city gate."
Ning Silian nodded. After he turned into an alley in the east market, he disappeared. Then, she dragged Ning Huai to the east market.
"Elder sister, are we not going to the West Market?" Ning Huai looked at Ning Silian in surprise.
"Eh, let's go and be servants first before going over to the West Market." Ning Silian placed her finger next to her mouth and whispered, "This is a secret. You can't tell others!"
"En, alright!" Since his sister wouldn't let him tell others, then he wouldn't.
After walking around the East Market for a long time, she finally saw a sign that said "Dang" on the front of a shop. Ning Silian suddenly felt glad that she wasn't illiterate.
The pawnshop assistant saw a pair of siblings standing outside the door. He hurriedly went up and asked, "Are you trying to pawn me?"
"Right." Ning Silian's expression did not change, but in her heart, she was praising this shop assistant. He did not look down on these two siblings.
Actually, what Ning Silian didn't know was that even though the shop assistant didn't want to wear those clothes, they had an extraordinary temperament, especially Ning Silian, who had the bearing of a big family.
"What do you want to pawn?" The waiter invited the two into the room and let them take their seats.
