When Yu Zhengqing saw Mo Qingwan and the other man in the government office, he was also slightly stunned. When he was about to speak, he saw Constable Sun behind them shaking his head at him.

When he saw Tian Cui Gu looking around again, Yu Zhengqing understood what was going on and walked past them without looking at them.

When the two sides passed each other, Mo Qingwan and Wang Guangjin nodded slightly as a greeting.

"Where are you taking me..." Tian Cui Gu became more and more frightened as she walked. She always felt that the other party had changed his mind and wanted to take her to see the official.

"Didn't we say we would sign the contract?" Wang Guangjin walked in front and turned to look at her: "You don't want to sign? That's fine, the official is over there, we can go find him."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards Yu Zhengqing.

Tian Cuigu was frightened to death!

The official who just walked past me was obviously a high-ranking official. How dare this guy do this!

"Who said I won't sign!" Tian Cuigu was so anxious that she grabbed Wan Guangjin's sleeve and walked forward, "Sign! Sign quickly! After you sign, the girl will be yours!"

Wang Guangjin brushed her hand away, and said with a slight smile, "Then let's go."

......

The deed was made in three copies, one for Mo Qingwan, one for Tian Cuigu, and one for the government office for record.

Tian Cuigu was illiterate, let alone able to write, and said that she could just press her fingerprint. However, this was a government office, not a rural village, so how could a fingerprint count?

Therefore, in the end, the official Yu Zhengqing was invited to be a witness.

Yu Zhengqing also wrote the three words "Tian Cui Gu" on straw paper, one stroke at a time, and asked Tian Cui Gu to write these three words on the contract no matter what, and then sign next to it.

It took Tian Cui'gu nearly half an hour to write the three words. She was still cautious and put the piece of straw paper that Yu Zhengqing wrote on in her arms, saying that she would take it back to the village to let the scholars help identify it.

Mo Qingwan knew that Tian Cui Gu was not stupid, but they used their tricks in the clinic, causing Tian Cui Gu to suffer a loss.

As soon as the red seal fell, the two words "Song Qiao" on the household registration paper were crossed out in red, and the official seal of the government office was stamped on it, and Tian Cui Gu and Song Qiao were completely separated.

Tian Cuigu is illiterate, but Mo Qingwan and Wang Guangjin are both literate.

They looked at the years annotated after the word "Song Qiao" in the household registration, looked at each other, and finally understood something, such as why Song Qiao could read.

——Song Qiao was ten years old when she got registered.

There was also a person whose name was crossed out and marked as "dead" on the household registration. His surname was also Song. Judging from his age, he was two years older than Song Qiao. This person died in the same year as Song Qiao was registered.

When the three men walked out of the government office, Tian Cui Gu, holding the heavy baggage of ten taels and twelve coins, finally "came to her senses".

——How could these ten taels and two cents be given to her? She couldn't even keep it warm and wanted to give it away. She also had one tael and eight cents in her pocket, which made up exactly twelve taels to compensate the black-hearted doctor.

She didn't want to give it.

As a result, not only did she fail to sell the person, but she also lost all the money she brought with her.

This business is a loss no matter how you look at it.

"Ouch..." Tian Cuigu held her stomach and started to scream. She kept her eyes on Constable Sun who was following them. "My stomach hurts. Where is the toilet?"

Constable Sun understood and smiled, "It's on the corner. I'll take you there so you don't run away."

Tian Cuigu suddenly protected herself, "Although I am no longer young, I am still a woman after all. How can I let you watch me go to the toilet? Sir, I will not run away. I will be back soon!"

Constable Sun showed his white teeth and said, "Isn't it easy to guard you? Just wait."

Without waiting for Tian Cui Gu to react, he turned and entered the government office, and after a moment he brought out a female constable.

The female detective stood tall and straight, with a high ponytail tied behind her head, looking heroic. Like Detective Sun, she had an iron ruler on her waist. She looked at Mo Qingwan with her mouth slightly open, her eyes full of admiration.

"There are female detectives?!"

Tian Cuigu's words offended the female detective.

"Why can't a woman be a detective?" The female detective came over holding an iron ruler and looked at Tian Cuigu with lowered eyelids. "You want to sell your daughter to Peng Datou? Isn't that going to the toilet? Come on, I'll watch you go."

Tian Cuigu was defeated again. She looked at the iron ruler in her hand that was flashing with cold light and remained silent.

After the two of them went to the toilet, Wang Guangjin sighed, "Where did Lord Yu recruit this female detective from? Lord Shen wanted to recruit one before, but there was no suitable candidate in the county. Some of them said they would practice more and come back for the recruitment in the second half of this year."

Constable Sun said with a smile, "Constable Su may look thin, but she is actually very skilled. Her grandfather was the head of the escort agency, and she grew up in the escort agency since she was a child. She has never missed out on any training she should have."

It's not that I look down on women, but the body structures of men and women are inherently different.

If one is not born with sufficient physical strength, then one can only practice more. Although Constable Su's skills are comparable to theirs, the effort she has put in private is actually much greater than theirs.

......

Eleven pieces of silver, plus one tael of change, all fell into Doctor Lan's hands.

Tian Cuigu didn't want to suffer too much, so she wrapped up the ginseng and other medicinal herbs scattered on the ground with a cloth, then ran out of the clinic with a hateful look on her face without looking back.

No one cares whether she will give up or not.

Lying on the sickbed, Song Qiao stared blankly at the contract in Mo Qingwan's hand, tears already streaming down her face, and she had even lost the most basic ability to think.

Doctor Lan helped them draw the curtain and left the place for them. "This little girl... finally got her happy ending after all the hardship."

There is a world of its own behind the curtain.

Song Qiao felt that the contract in front of her was too unreal.

She should be sent to Mr. Peng's house tomorrow, and her "mother" should take the twenty taels of silver and happily do what she wants.

But she just almost bumped into the fairy sister and broke her own bones. When she came to her senses, she had nothing to do with Tian Cui Gu anymore, and she didn't even have to be sold as a concubine?

As if to confirm something, she struggled to get up, but the pain between her ribs and the hard chest and back prevented her from moving.

Mo Qingwan was slightly startled, put the contract on the table and pushed the man back.

"Why are you getting up? Just lie down and talk!"

Song Qiao felt the warmth from the palm on her shoulder, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes and fell into her hair.

"Sister... No, Miss, no... Master." She hurriedly thought of the right name to address him, and gazed deeply at Mo Qingwan's face. "I just feel... like I'm dreaming. Isn't it said that you can't feel pain in dreams? I just want..."

I just wanted to verify it with the broken ribs.

Verify whether the person in front of you is real.

To verify whether she still needs to be sold as a concubine.

Mo Qingwan felt a pang of sadness in his heart, and forced a smile to ask her: "What about now? Do you still feel like you're dreaming?"
