The female doctor farmed the land, bought a husband and set up a separate household

Today is the day to sell mushrooms, and it is also the day that will determine whether she can stay in Liuyun Village and continue selling mushrooms.

A few days ago, Aunt Li and her friends walked a long way up the mountain, but because the weather was too dry recently, they only harvested about 300 kilograms in two days. It can only be said that God has not been very kind to them recently.

When Jiang Sining thought about the continuous natural and man-made disasters that would soon occur, he felt an inexplicable sense of urgency and rushed to the market town in Old Man Wu's ox cart before dawn.

First, he sent the mushrooms to Tianranju, asked Bai Kuan to exchange a silver note of 100 taels for silver ingots and some loose silver, and then went to the market.

Last time I agreed with the pork vendor that I need another pig and some fish today. She may not be available later, so I have to settle this matter first.

When they arrived at the market, the pork man was indeed trustworthy and prepared a big fat pig and hundreds of pounds of lively fish for her.

After he cleaned the pork and fish, Jiang Sining called a ox cart to take them outside the city. After finding a deserted place to put them in the space, he hurried to the gate of the county government.

Si Chenan was still lying unconscious on the stained cart. It seemed that it had not been taken back last night, leaving him exposed to the cold air all night.

The two officers in charge of guarding yawned. Seeing Jiang Sining coming so early, they sent someone in to inform the person who could make the decision.

Soon, the county lieutenant Yan Jiuping came with two yamen runners.

"Little girl, let me ask you again, are you sure you want to buy him?" Yan Jiuping asked.

"Correct."

"Do you have 500 taels of silver?"

"No." Jiang Sining shook her head like a rattle. "I only have 32 taels and 5 cents, which my mother left me. I also have 326 copper coins, which I earned from selling mushrooms these days. Sir, no one wants it anyway, and they are all dying, so just sell it to me at a lower price. I really don't want to marry that lame Zhao."

Seeing that she had given both decimal and whole numbers, which was consistent with the situation from the investigation, Yan Jiuping said, "How about this, you go and borrow some from someone, as long as you can get 50 taels, I will sell it to you. This is the lowest price, if you don't buy it, someone else will."

"50 taels?" Jiang Si Ning counted on his fingers for a long time before saying, "Then I have to borrow 17 taels of silver, plus 174 copper coins?"

"Yes." Yan Jiuping smiled, "You are not wrong."

"But I don't have a place to borrow so much money," Jiang Sining said, "Sir, can't you give me a lower price?"

"How much can you borrow?"

Jiang Sining pretended to think hard for a while: "At most 4...5 taels. My mother helped a lot of people when she was still alive, they should be able to lend it to me."

Yan Jiuping smiled slightly. She was indeed a little girl from the country. She was too naive.

The so-called tea is cool when people leave.

Your mother is dead, who will remember her kindness in the past?

"You don't have to borrow money from everywhere." Yan Jiuping said, "As long as you promise me one thing, I can lend you the money you need."

"Really?" Jiang Sining's eyes lit up. "Thank you, sir! I will never forget your kindness! Sir, what are you talking about?"

"Aren't you buying him back to get married?"

"correct."

"But have you ever thought that as long as your grandmother doesn't agree, your marriage won't be possible at all." Yan Jiuping said, "When the time comes, you will still have to marry Zhao Bozi from Bajiao Village. He is a well-known ruffian and has two brothers who are still single. If you marry him, I'm afraid your life will not be easy."

Jiang Sining blinked.

Yesterday, she didn't say that the Jiang family promised her to Zhao Bozi.

It seems that she was right, these people really investigated her thoroughly.

Judging from the hidden meaning in Yan Jiuping's words, if she wanted to buy Si Chenan, she would have to agree to some other requests.

So she hurriedly said, "Master Qingtian, please help me! I... I can add another 5 taels of silver!"

Yan Jiuping was very satisfied that he had frightened her.

He could easily kill a little girl by just coaxing or scaring her.

"Don't worry, I just feel sorry for you and want to help you." Yan Jiuping said, "What I want you to do is actually very simple. After you buy the man, I will arrange for you to marry him immediately, register him with the county government, and let you live separately, so that this matter is set in stone! Even if your grandmother doesn't want to, she can only stare blankly."

Jiang Sining was stunned.

Her original plan was to buy the person back first and then stop Zhao Bozi's marriage proposal.

As for setting up a household, it will take some more work.

Who would have thought that the official's intention was to help her set up a household registration in one go... Is this such a good thing?

On second thought, as the eldest son of the general's mansion, being exiled to such a remote place and being bought by a peasant girl to become her husband must be a great humiliation for him.

I'm afraid that not only Si Chenan himself, but even his clansmen will be humiliated by this.

The government wanted to make Si Chenan's life a failure, torturing him inside and out.

As a bonus, it actually made things convenient for her.

Yan Jiuping said, "But you have to know that I am not the only one who has the final say on this matter. There are a large group of people behind me. They are not as easy to talk to as I am, so... I may need some money to open up the connections."

"How much... do you want?" Jiang Sining asked.

"No less than 20 taels."

Jiang Sining laughed in his heart.

As the old saying goes, if the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked too. The new county magistrate is trying to make money from every angle, and the county lieutenant is no less capable than him.

Seeing that she was a little hesitant, Yan Jiuping said, "You have to borrow money anyway, so what's the harm in borrowing more at a time? You still have a long life ahead of you, and you have plenty of time to pay it back."

"Okay, I agree!"

Seeing that the matter was settled and his extra 20 taels of silver were in his hands, Yan Jiuping immediately put on a smile and asked one of his servants to call Wu Bazi over.

Wu Bazi is the man who bought Hong Jianqiu last time. He is not only engaged in the human rights business, but also works part-time as a loan shark.

To be able to do these businesses without getting into trouble, he must be in collusion with government officials.

So all Yan Jiuping needed was a word, and even if he lent money to someone like Jiang Sining who obviously couldn't pay it back, he had to put on a smile and write the IOU honestly.

"Little girl, this is an IOU for 40 taels of silver." Yan Jiuping handed the IOU to Jiang Sining and said.

"Why is it 40 taels?"

"Hey, you don't understand this," Yan Jiuping said, "You used all your money to buy it. You can't let your family go hungry. You're borrowing money anyway. Can't you borrow more?"

Jiang Sining understood clearly.

No matter which world it is, the people who put money in are the same.

When we lend you money, it is for your own good, but when we collect the money, it is not the same.

And just now she took a look at the interest rate, wow, it was extremely high.

40 taels of silver means 200 wen interest a day, and the interest is compounded!

That is to say, at the end of the month, the interest alone would be more than 6 taels of silver.

For a little country girl, it would probably take her ten lifetimes to repay the debt.

Not only did the government want her to buy Si Chenan, but they also wanted her to owe high-interest loans. Even if Si Chenan was lucky enough to survive this time, he could be beaten to death by debt collectors at any time.

She could have turned around and returned the money, but that would have immediately aroused suspicion and gotten her into trouble.

But asking her to accept these interests seems a bit unfair.

So she blinked and thought of a very bad idea.

"But...but..." Jiang Sining hesitated.

"Little girl, what else do you have to worry about?" Yan Jiuping deliberately frowned and pretended to threaten, "If you don't want to, go back and marry Zhao Bozi. The three brothers will definitely treat you well."

"No, no," Jiang Sining said, "I just heard from someone that if you want to borrow money, you need to find someone to guarantee it. If you want, you can find my fourth uncle Jiang Qingzhou. He is a scholar! He is the most promising scholar in Gaochuan County who has passed the imperial examination! With him guaranteeing me, you don't have to worry about not being able to pay it back."

Yan Jiuping: ???

Wu Bazi: ???

Jiang Sining had no chance of dealing with these two people this time.

I've been in this business for so many years, but I've never seen anyone as stupid as her!

But it's a really good idea.

If the Jiang family is dragged into this, more money can be recovered, and Si Chenan's life will only become more difficult.

"Yes, yes, we do need someone to act as a guarantor. I almost forgot about it." Yan Jiuping said, "Where is your fourth uncle?"

"He should be in the academy." Jiang Sining said, "I just don't know if he is willing."

"Don't worry, he will definitely agree." He was just a scholar, and the county magistrate said something, so he had to come over and obey obediently. "Wait a moment, I'll send someone to find him."

Yan Jiuping said this and returned to the yamen and reported the matter to the county magistrate.

Upon hearing this, Master Liu's eyes immediately turned and he said, "It's a good idea to have someone from the Jiang family as a guarantor, but we can keep this from him for now, in case he leaks the news and delays our event."

County Magistrate Shen turned to the chief clerk beside him and said, "Chief clerk He, do you have any good ideas?"

"This... is easy!" said He Zhubu. "Draft a document to recommend students to study in the prefecture, and let those who want to go write their own names. Jiang Qingzhou will naturally not miss this opportunity. When it is his turn to write his name, he will put the IOU under the document, leaving a little blank, so that his name will naturally appear on the IOU."

"That's a good idea!" Master Liu said with a smile, "But try to make the scene as hurried and chaotic as possible so that he won't have time to take a closer look."

"Okay, let's do it."

Magistrate Shen immediately sent someone to the academy to summon all the students to the county government office.

When they heard that there was an opportunity to study in the state capital, even though it was decided by drawing lots, everyone was so happy that they almost jumped up and rushed to sign up.

Jiang Qingzhou was naturally among them. He had wanted to visit the provincial capital for a long time, but he never had the chance, so he had to fight for it this time no matter what.

Seeing him coming, Master He immediately followed the previous plan and asked him to write his name on the IOU.

After the matter was done, Yan Jiuping came back with the IOU and placed it in front of Jiang Sining.

Seeing that there was indeed Jiang Qingzhou's signature on it, I couldn't help but want to give him a thumbs up.

It seems that as long as they can make money, everyone's efficiency is very high and it can be done in an hour.

"Your fourth uncle has signed the agreement, now it's your turn."

Jiang Sining picked up the pen, wrote his name crookedly, then applied cinnabar on his palm, leaving a bright red handprint, and the matter was done.

Yan Jiuping went to the county government office again and handled all the formalities.

"I'll have someone explain to your village chief later." Yan Jiuping said at last, "Now you can take him... no, I should say take your husband home."

Jiang Sining called for an ox cart, took Si Chenan, and slowly headed towards Liuyun Village.

Looking at the unconscious villain in Niuche Mountain, Jiang Sining felt a very unreal feeling in his heart.

It’s only been a few days since I came into this world!

The biggest villain in the book, the vicious and murderous Si Chenan, actually became her husband.

Who can I talk to to explain this?
