Chapter 517: The Forgotten Chen Meili

"Are you hungry? Then mom will go find you something to eat."

Touching away the tears on her face, Chen Meili began to take stock of her current state of mind.

With the vendors hawking and the crowds passing by, it seemed like I was on the streets of the capital city.

He lowered his head and looked at the clothes he was wearing. Because he wanted to hide himself from others, he made a lot of holes in the clothes.

Clothing, food, housing, transportation, she didn't want to make it difficult for herself in any of them

She was already pitiful enough now, so she had to treat herself well. Chen Meili made up her mind.

Since we are on the street, the first thing is to have money

Money can make all the difference. Whether in ancient times or modern times, money is the basis of all activities, so the first thing is to get some money.

Chen Meili carefully turned behind the tree and saw that no one was around. She reached out and pulled out a red coral and a pearl from the bag under her belly.

After comparing and comparing, I picked up the pearl, put the coral back into the bag, and hid it back carefully.

This pearl is already extremely precious. It is so big, but compared with the red coral, it is not on the same level.

It is not easy for me to leak money now. These pearls are enough for me to live a comfortable life in the capital for a year and a half.

Hiding the pearls in her sleeves, Chen Meili strode towards what seemed to be the largest pawn shop on the street.

Looking at the pawn shop, which looks a bit like a modern bank, with tall counters and wooden barriers, Chen Meili smiled lightly. The ancients were actually quite advanced.

"Is the shopkeeper here?"

Chen Meili knocked on the chopping board

After a while, an old man with a white beard and a hat walked out.

The man looked Chen Meili up and down. Although the clothes were dilapidated, the original preciousness of the clothes could still be seen.

Chen Meili has red lips and white teeth. Although she is pregnant, her face and hands are not as dry and slightly cracked as those of working women.

"Madam, I don't know how I can help you."

The old man smiled and said

Chen Meili smiled lightly. She didn't care how he looked at her. What she had to do now was to get the right money.

Without saying anything, Chen Meili took out the pearls from her sleeve and handed them to the old man in the cabinet.

The old man's eyes lit up, and he took the pearl handed over by Chen Meili with both hands. A small magnifying glass was in his hand, and he looked back and forth at the jewelry.

"Where does this... come from?"

The old man's voice was trembling. While speaking, his eyes did not leave the pearl.

"The family is in decline..."

Chen Meili only said these four words

She believed that this was enough. He was an expert. Chen Meili could tell from the way he looked at her just now.
