Chapter 738: Redeemable

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

How could Wei Zizhan possibly let him go?

That was the County Magistrate!

His position was much higher than his brother’s!

He was usually disliked by his brother because he was a b*stard son. However, out of respect for his brother, he still brought him to Heshi County. If the County Magistrate came, his brother would hate on him even more, regardless of whether he had taken the jade pendant or not.

He would not have a good life in this house if this happened.

Thinking of this, Wei Zizhan, who was still a child, was scared to bits. He quickly pulled Ah Zhong and cried, “I really don’t have that jade pendant. I took it, but I pawned it. I pawned it a long time ago. I don’t have the money to redeem it.”

Because his brother, the legitimate son, had become an official, the family had planned to give all their wealth to his brother, so they naturally spent less on him.

He never had that much money.

If it wasn’t for the lack of money, he wouldn’t have secretly taken the jade pendant and pawned it off.

It was worth a lot of money. It was obvious as to why he pawned it. That jade pendant was a top-grade suet jade.

He didn’t dare to pawn it at the pawnshop in Pingan Town. He only pawned it when he came to Changyu. He was afraid that the servant boy would ask him how he could have such a good thing, so he secretly pawned it by himself.

“You pawned it?” Ah Zhong did not expect this and was stunned. “Where? Is it still there?” he asked.

What if the item has been sold? If he could figure out which sop it was maybe he could redeem it himself.

“It is.” Wei Zizhan was still crying. “I was going to pawn it, but the pawnshop only gave me three hundred silver for it. I felt that the jade pendant was definitely worth more than that. The pawnshop bullied me because I was a child, so I pawned it first. I took a hundred silver and planned to redeem it when I had more money. Then, I would think of a way to sell it at a higher price. I was wrong. I know my mistake. Please don’t take this to the authorities!”

“Then what about the deed? Let’s redeem it.

“I still have the deed, but, but I don’t have the money to redeem it. I also said it just now.” Wei Zizhan cried. “The pawnshop also said that if I want to redeem it one day, I have to pay hundred and fifty silver instead. I have to collect some interest. I’ve already used that hundred. Where am I going to get the hundred and fifty now?” Then, he told him about his situation in this family.

Before Ah Zhong came, he had been instructed by his teacher to resolve this matter with dignity. After all, Wei Zizhan was still young and not unpardonable.

In addition, he was now clear about Wei Zizhan’s situation. As a b*stard son, his situation in this family was very rough. Ah Zhong felt a sense of compassion when listening to his story.

Besides, Mister Zhang was worried that he might need money, so he asked him to bring more money…

Ah Zhong said, “The hundred and fifty silver will be paid by your teacher. However, I hope that you won’t be so muddle-headed in the future. Although you’re young, you’ve studied for a few years. How can you do such a disrespectful thing?”

“Yes, I understand. C-can you really take it back?”

Ah Zhong sighed. “Your teacher has instructed me to settle this matter as gracefully as possible, taking into account your young age. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to you first and only told you about this in private.”

“Many, many thanks.” Wei Zizhan was still sobbing. “I know I was wrong. I won’t do it again. Please help me tell Mister Zhang when the time comes.”

“If you really change your ways in the future, your teacher should be the first to know,” Ah Zhong said. “Take it as a good deed to pass on in the future. We’ll go and redeem the jade pendant together..”
