Home / Chapter 30 A Strange Box
Mengying Lin looked in the direction of his fingers. It was a dress embroidered with gold thread. The upper part of the body was warm white tiger fur. The corners outlined the embroidery of gold thread. The lower part of the body was a long skirt with half fur and half satin. It was really beautiful and warm.

"That's it!" Mengying Lin touched Yisheng's head. "Our brother's eyes are good. This dress must look good on me."

The two chose a few warm clothes before they came out of the clothing store. What Mengying Lin had not thought of was that a few clothes spent most of her money in the clothes shop, and there was little money left outside the clothes shop.

She figured out how to buy toys for Yisheng. How could a child experience a childhood without toys? So she didn't rush back to the inn, but came to a peddler selling gadgets in the distance.

The peddlers were collecting the stalls, seeing the guests coming and stopping their movements. "Miss, what do you want to buy? Anyway, it's going to be over. I'll make it cheaper for you."

Mengying Lin nodded and picked on the stall with Yisheng's hand. She was randomly choosing something interesting. But suddenly she saw an object in the corner. Her eyes lit up and she picked up the box which looked like a jewelry box and looked over it repeatedly.

"Miss, do you like this? If you really like me, I'll sell you thirty coppers. "The peddler was delighted to see that she had taken the box.

"Where did you get this stuff? It looks funny." Mengying Lin fiddled with the box and asked at will.

"Oh, don't mention it. There was a bad old man who broke my stall a few days ago and had no money to pay for it. Of course, I couldn't let him go without losing money. He took it to pay for it. It was nice when I see the box, and left it behind, thinking about selling it at a good price. Who knows it's a box. It's empty and useless, even for children. They don't like it. They haven't been sold for several days. Miss, my thirty copper coins are absolutely no pit for you."

The peddler was afraid that she would not buy it. He lobbied hard and took a small slingshot. "If you buy this box, can I give you another slingshot?"

Mengying Lin hesitated for a moment and then said, "Okay, I'll buy it." She picked out a few more gadgets for Yisheng and paid for them.

The vendor smiled and thanked him constantly. Mengying Lin waved her hand and pulled Yisheng to go. Nobody saw her. The moment she turned around, her eyes could not hide the brilliance.

"Boy, I finally found you! You said that if you set up a stall, you should set up a stall. How can you run everywhere in a big city or a small town? I found several cities before I found you.

As soon as Mengying Lin stepped forward, she heard an old man pulling at the vendor just now. She couldn't help curiosity and looked back.

The peddler pushed the old man aside. "How do we do business without our businessmen don't go around?" You were ashamed to say, that day you hit my stall, compensate me for a broken thing and left, I haven't bothered with you yet?

"You said bad stuff? You said my box was a piece of junk? The old man was so angry that he stopped the vendor to go. "Didn't I say I was going to come back and exchange it?" I had a hard time finding you with silver. Quickly, return the box to me and I'll give you the silver! "

The vendor turned a white eye at him and shoveled his hands. "You're late. I've sold the box. Well, that girl bought it. I can't give it to you."

"What?" When the old man heard him, he loosened the peddler and walked over to Mengying Lin. He wanted to hold on to Mengying Lin, and felt that the men and women were not being married, so he had to rub his hands repeatedly. He said, "Miss, can you give me that box, and I'll pay two times for it?"

"Uh..." Mengying Lin played with the box and shook her head apologetically. "Not for sale." It's a joke. She hasn't finished studying the organs in the box yet. How can she easily let them out? Besides, this is what she paid for. It's just what she got. Let's not let it go, but it was decided by her.

As soon as the old man heard it, he was in a hurry. "Miss, this is a box. It doesn't work for you, but it's different for me. So, let me get two silver coins to buy it."

"Two silver coins?" Mengying Lin did not respond, but the peddler next to him heard the roar immediately. His face was full of regret. "I knew you were going to use two silver coins to redeem it. I said I would not sell anything."

"What's the use of saying this now? You go away!" The old man glared at the hawker and saw that Mengying Lin was leaving. He hurried up and said, "Miss, you can sell it to me. That's it. I'll give you five silver coins. But all I own in my family."

Mengying Lin took a puff from her mouth, looked at the box, and then at the old man, and asked, "But this box can be bought for more than five silver coins. The peddler knows nothing about it. Do you want to bully me too?"

The old man was shock by asking by Mengying Lin, and his face turned red. "You are an expert, you can make a price."

"Um... One thousand silver coins?" Mengying Lin thought about it and said a price casually. Originally, she intended to test the old man. Nobody knew that the old man hesitated for a while and then nodded.

"Miss, you're asking too much. If I had so much money, I would not use this box to pay the bill. But now that I have promised, I must take the box back. Otherwise, if you wait, I'll borrow the money. If I borrow the money, I'll buy it with the money. The old man's face was full of difficulties, but his attitude was firm.

"Well, if you want, come and see me." Mengying Lin told the old man the address of the inn. Although she was interested in the box, she was most interested in money. In front of the silver, she could bear this little interest.

Moreover, it could be seen that the old man was also a man of good faith, otherwise he would not embarrass himself in order to make a commitment.

When Mengying Lin returned to the inn, she immediately closed the door and began to study the box. Yisheng Lin also began to play with his new toys. Although he played with them, his deep eyes were lacking of interest. He looked at Mengying Lin who carefully studied the box and then bowed his head to play with the toys.

If he acted like a normal child and she could be happy, he thought, he would hide his indifference.

"Click"

Half an hour later, a quiet noise came out of the box. Mengying Lin was happy on her face. She immediately opened the dark box at the bottom of the box. The box looked empty, but in fact it contained a mystery. The organs inside were ingeniously designed. It took her a lot of effort to open it.
