Chapter 49 Chapter Eight: The Pawnshop Owner

Only then did the crowd disperse, and when they left, they were still muttering threats: "If you don't honor it, you won't be able to leave this door tomorrow." But not long after the creditor left, someone came to make trouble again. The troublemaker was a pawnbroker in town.He heard the creditors returning from here talking about Chen Shaojin's gold medal on the way, how big the gold medal was, and the carvings and patterns. When the pawnshop owner heard this, he hurried to find Chen Shaojin. "I heard that you have such a big gold medal?" The pawnshop owner asked, gesturing with his hands.

"Yes." Chen Shaojin replied honestly. "Can you show me?" "It's fine, there's nothing wrong with it." Chen Shaojin thought that the pawnshop owner was interested in his gold medal and would bid to buy it, so he readily agreed.He is worried about buyers. The pawnshop owner took the gold medal with trembling hands, inspected it carefully, and kept mosuo on the gold medal with both hands. "Okay! How dare you rob a tomb!" The pawnshop owner pointed at Chen Shaojin's nose and shouted angrily. "What? Grave robbery? I don't have one."

"No? Where did you get the gold medal without this? Where did you get this gold thing, a boy who is so poor that you have no crotch? If you have gold, you will pay off your debts sooner? Now you dare to come out after getting the gold medal from the tomb robber?" The pawnshop owner became more and more angry, holding He raised his fist to hit Chen Shaojin.Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the horse soldiers next to him hurriedly pulled the pawnshop owner. "If you have something to talk about, it's wrong to hit someone." Ma Bing persuaded. "What's there to say, he robbed the tomb! This is the funeral object I gave to my daughter after she died. I can still recognize it with my old eyes. Tell me, tell me, did you rob the tomb and get this thing? ?” The pawnshop owner roared, his eyes sparkling with anger.

"This thing is indeed not mine, it was given to my son by my wife." Chen Shaojin defended. The pawn shop owner spat and said: "Who are you lying to? You, you have been gone for more than a year. Where can you find a wife? And give birth to a child?" "At Mengjia Mountain." Chen Shaojin said confidently. The pawnshop owner was stunned for a moment, and then cursed even more fiercely: "Who are you lying to? You are a tomb robber! My daughter's tomb is in Mengjia Mountain. You stole my daughter's tomb. Let's stop making trouble here , go see the officer!"

Ma Bing didn't know what was going on. When he heard that a lawsuit was going to be filed, he quickly resolved it and said, "Don't be angry, old man. My cousin is an honest man and doesn't know how to rob graves. There must be some misunderstandings. Let's talk about it carefully. Speak." Chen Shaojin also wanted to explain.The owner of the pawn shop shook his head, waved his hands and refused to listen, and said resolutely, "Don't say anything, it's useless. Let's see the official. Just wait." He threw down the gold medal angrily, and walked out while talking .Seeing that he was so angry, the horse soldiers didn't dare to pull.

The town government got involved in this matter. Chen Shaojin explained what happened to him.But neither the pawnbroker nor the government officials believed his words.The pawnshop owner insisted that Chen Shaojin stole his daughter's tomb. The two sides had nothing to do, and the middleman said that the only way to disturb the dead was to open the coffin and the tomb.But it is not good to do it during the day, for fear of attracting crowds, and the smell and appearance of the dead are not good, which will frighten the children of the surrounding residents.After discussion, the two sides agreed to dig the grave the next night.

Grandpa heard that they were going to open the coffin, so he hurriedly blocked it.
