Pan Jinlian wiped the tomato juice from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "It costs thirty taels of silver. How can I possibly afford that?"
Li Huan knew that before Wu Song went on his business trip to the capital, he had sent someone to give Wu Dalang a bag of silver.
Pan Jinlian would definitely be responsible for keeping those silver coins safe.
Li Huan deliberately said, "I can give you a discount, only twenty taels of silver, and I'll throw in a bottle of beer."
Pan Jinlian asked curiously, "Beer? What kind of beer is that?"
Li Huan said, "Beer is also a specialty of foreign lands, and even the current emperor has never drunk it."
Pan Jinlian was tempted and quickly said, "Wait a moment, I'll go inside and get the silver."
She had just turned around when a voice suddenly called out, "Wife, wait!"
Li Huan looked in the direction of the sound, but could not see the man who had stopped Pan Jinlian.
Immediately afterwards, a short, stocky, ugly man struggled to squeeze out of the crowd and reached out to intercept Pan Jinlian.
Li Huan was secretly delighted. Haha, Wu Dalang has made his timely appearance!
He had calculated that when Pan Jinlian lowered the curtain at the door, it meant that Wu Dalang was about to return home.

Wu Dalang held tightly to Pan Jinlian's sleeve, afraid that she would break free.
This guy usually sells his wares at a stall, earning only a few coins per pancake. He's used to a frugal and poor life, so how could he possibly be willing to take out twenty taels of silver all at once?
Pan Jinlian was enraged when Wu Dalang blocked her in public.
"We have money at home, my mother can afford it!"
"Absolutely not! That money was given to me by my brother; it's for buying a house..."
"What a coward! Saving up money instead of spending it, are you saving it for your coffin?"
"My lady, stop making a scene and come home with me!"
Wu Dalang insisted on refusing to buy the boxed lunch and pulled Pan Jinlian forcefully.
The crowd laughed with amusement, as if watching a monkey show.
"stop!"
A furious roar, as loud as thunder!
