The female doctor farmed the land, bought a husband and set up a separate household
Chapter 96 Are you afraid of losing?
When they arrived at the provincial capital, Si Chenan had already arranged an inn for the family to rest.
The next morning, according to Jiang Sining's plan, he dressed up as Mr. Xiao and prepared to contact the big grain merchants in the provincial capital.
In this world, merchants who can do grain business and become big merchants all have government and court backgrounds. So she can't put all her eggs in one basket. She has to contact multiple grain merchants and buy grain from different people.
This takes several days.
However, the process was relatively smooth. After all, the autumn harvest was approaching and new grain would be available soon. Grain merchants were holding last year's grain in their hands, and now someone was willing to help them empty their warehouses.
So one deal after another was happily negotiated.
Jiang Sining rented more than a dozen ox carts, and every day he would transport grain from different grain merchants to a rented farmyard on the outskirts of the city. After the drivers left, he would store all the grain into the space.
After a few days, she had spent almost all of the remaining ten thousand taels of silver.
The food in the space also filled several small warehouses.
During these few days, Si Chenan was not idle either. Although he could not go to the streets openly, he was able to make plans and let Xia Shan go out to purchase various supplies.
Cotton, cloth, seasonings, medicinal herbs, wrought iron... In short, as long as it was something his wife needed, he did his best to let Xia Shan buy it.
After resting and drinking the spiritual spring water every day, Mrs. Chen's body recovered at an unprecedented speed.
On the fifth day, another secret guard of Si Chenan came to find him.
This man's name is Dong Ling. He is 15 years old, the same age as Xia Shan. However, unlike Xia Shan, Dong Ling is skinny and short, and looks like a child.
But when Jiang Sining saw him for the first time, he knew that this little guy was not easy to deal with.
Because his eyes were as cold as ice and sharp, without any emotion, just like hers when she was in the orphanage.
"Old Madam, Young Master, Young Madam," Dong Ling's voice was also very flat, like an emotionless AI, "Young Master and Young Lady can't wait any longer."
"What does 'can't wait' mean?" Jiang Sining asked.
Dong Ling had just arrived and didn't know Jiang Sining's status. He found it a bit strange that she asked before the old lady and the eldest young master spoke.
"Dong Ling." Si Chenan said, "From now on, everything in our family will be decided by the young lady."
Dong Ling was slightly stunned. He thought he had heard it wrong.
The eldest young master used to be so arrogant and high-spirited, but now he has to listen to the young mistress?
However, as a subordinate, even though he felt strange, he still had to obey absolutely: "Yes. I can't wait for a few days. That brothel has announced that the young lady will officially start receiving guests tomorrow night, and the highest bidder will win."
Jiang Sining's brows furrowed into a shape of "川" when he heard this.
If she remembered correctly, Si Chenjin was only 9 years old this year!
This damn feudal society has absolutely no humanity at all.
But if you think about it carefully, this may also be a strategy of certain people, the purpose of which is to lure out Xia Shan and his gang of "Si family remnants" and then catch them all in one fell swoop.
But no matter what, we must rescue Si Chenjin and Si Chenyan before tomorrow night.
Otherwise, she was really worried that Si Chenan would turn evil and become his arch-villain.
Now that the heroine no longer has the space plug-in, it is estimated that there will be no major storms in the future, so she thinks it is better not to get involved in the affairs of the court and live a small life.
"How long will it take to get there?"
"If we set off now and keep going, we can arrive before noon tomorrow."
"Then let's go now." Jiang Sining thought for a moment and said, "Don't go, just go home."
Xia Shan was not happy when he heard this.
How could he not participate in such an important event?
Besides, he had finally become familiar to the lady and had performed a great deed in saving the old lady, so he wanted to consolidate his position further!
Otherwise these three guys would always laugh at him for being only good at doing things but not using his brain.
"Madam, if I don't go, I'm afraid they won't be able to defeat the thugs in the brothel."
Jiang Sining clearly saw that there was a barely perceptible smile at the corner of Dong Ling's mouth, as if he was mocking Xia Shan's arrogance.
"Hey, Xiao Dongling," Xia Shan naturally saw it too, and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm not laughing."
"You just laughed! Don't think I didn't see it!" Xia Shan said, "Let me be honest, if you three could have rescued the people, you wouldn't have come here to ask for help!"
Although Dong Ling didn't want to admit it, that brothel was indeed tricky because there was a force behind them that even Brother Qingyu was a little afraid of.
Otherwise, they would have rescued the young master and young lady long ago.
But even with Xia Shan, it still wouldn’t work.
"Don't argue." Jiang Sining said, "Xia Shan, your mission is to protect the old lady and the young master and get them home."
"Can……"
"Why, what I said doesn't work?"
"I dare not!" Xia Shan quickly replied, "I will follow Madam's instructions."
After saying that, he glared at Dong Ling unwillingly, but Dong Ling pretended he saw nothing.
There was nothing to pack, so after giving some instructions, Jiang Sining rode on the horse that pulled the family's carriage. After leaving the city, he followed Dong Ling and galloped all the way in the night.
This was her first time riding a horse, and she felt very uncomfortable, with her stomach acid coming out like crazy.
The most annoying thing is that, not only does the horse have no saddle, but it also only has stirrups on one side. After riding on it, I have to rely on the strength of my two legs to hold the horse's back to avoid falling off the horse.
After riding for an hour, her long legs felt like they were about to break.
"Dong Ling, stop."
Dong Ling reined in his horse and asked, "Madam, are you tired?"
"It's not that I'm tired," Jiang Sining said, "I want to change the saddle."
Dong Ling replied without hesitation: "Madam, I'm afraid I don't have time to do this now."
It can be seen that although the little guy is respectful to her on the surface, he is not truly convinced in his heart.
So Jiang Sining decided that even if it would take an hour, she had to make the saddle and stirrups to let this little guy know what knowledge is speed.
"Dong Ling," Jiang Sining said, "Have you forgotten what your eldest master said?"
Dong Ling hesitated slightly, and finally said: "I dare not."
"If you don't dare, get off your horse and help me."
The saddle has not changed much, the main change is the stirrup.
Jiang Sining asked Dong Ling to cut a small tree on the roadside, carve two stirrups, and fix them on the other side of the saddle.
Looking at her strange changes, although Dong Ling didn't say anything, he was full of doubts in his heart.
As we all know, the purpose of the stirrup is to get on a horse, so naturally it only needs to be installed on one side, because it is impossible for a person to get on a horse from both sides at the same time.
So what's the point of having an extra stirrup?
But he didn't ask, and Jiang Sining didn't explain to him.
After the stirrups of the two horses were installed, she jumped on the horse's back to try it out. Both feet had a place to root, and her whole body instantly became stable, and she didn't feel tired at all.
So she said to Dong Ling: "Now, let's have a competition to see who rides faster."
Even Dong Ling, who always had a blank expression on his face, twitched his mouth when he heard this.
He started horse riding training at a very young age!
He also went to the battlefield and fought a life-and-death battle with the barbarians.
Even though his wife was also a heroic woman and had started riding horses at the same age as him, he would never think that his wife's riding skills were better than his.
"Madam, you can't..."
"Why, Dong Ling boy," Jiang Si Ning said with a smile, "Are you afraid of falling? Are you afraid of losing to this lady?"
Dong Ling: ...
"Be careful, madam."
"Start! Drive——"
Jiang Sining waved the whip and the horse under his crotch immediately galloped out.
She held the stirrups firmly with her feet and half-lying her upper body on the horse's back. No matter how fast the horse galloped, she felt as steady as if she had taken root on the horse's back.
After just a few dozen breaths, Dong Ling was thrown far away.
Watching her gradually disappearing in the darkness ahead, Dong Ling could only hear the sound of horse hooves. At this moment, his heart was filled with turbulent waves.
He actually lost!
What method did the young lady use?
He looked down at the newly added stirrups, recalled how the young lady had ridden the horse just now, and put both feet into the stirrups.
In an instant, his eyes lit up.
This... is completely different from before!
The role of this pair of stirrups is greater and more useful than he imagined!
If Daxia's cavalry could be equipped with double stirrups on the battlefield, he would guarantee with his life that their combat effectiveness would be more than doubled!
It seems that the young master is willing to let the young mistress be the head of the family, not because he is now down and out and has to live under someone else's roof.
It was because this young lady had extraordinary abilities that he didn't know about yet.
This made him secretly look forward to it.
Such a young lady might be able to come up with a perfect way to rescue the young master and young lady.
