Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

Han Qiu was stunned and asked in disbelief, "Get married? Miss Jiang, what do you mean by that? Is this a joke?"

"What I'm saying is that I hope you and I can have a fake marriage." Jiang Siyu explained helplessly, "I don't want to participate in the selection, so I came up with this plan to avoid this disaster."

Jiang Siyu also felt that this suggestion was a bit ridiculous, but she had no other choice now.

Seeing that Ah Qiu didn't say anything for a long time, she quickly lost her temper, quickly gathered her emotions, and forced a smile, "Forget it, if you feel it's inappropriate, then forget about it. I'll find another way, and I'll definitely be able to find a glimmer of hope."

"Wait a minute... Miss Jiang, ahem, let me reiterate, a gentleman's promise is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold. Since I promised in the past that I would do my best to help you through the difficulties, this is true and I can't take it back."

Although Han Qiu's face looked a little pale, a blush quietly appeared on his face as he spoke.

Jiang Siyu couldn't bear it: "Aqiu, why do you have to force yourself like this? Marriage is a serious matter. If I ruin your marriage, I will feel uneasy..."

Han Qiu shook his head: "Siyu, don't say that anymore. Look at me in this state, how can I waste my time? Marrying a wife and having children is an unattainable luxury for me, and I am afraid it will only cause trouble to others. Now, I have the opportunity to help you, which is really a blessing for me. I couldn't ask for more."

Perhaps he felt that he had spoken too hastily, so he explained, “I just hope I can help you through this difficult time.”

"That's great, Qiu, you really helped me a lot."

After the two of them had discussed it, they immediately told Han's mother about the matter. Of course, they did not mention anything about the selection when they spoke to Han's mother.

When Han's mother heard that the two were going to get married, she felt dazed for a moment, "It would be unfair for Miss Jiang to marry our Qiu, wouldn't it? Besides, our family is so poor, it's really..."

"Don't worry, aunt. My family is well-off. You can move with me to the new courtyard. As for the marriage, everything can be kept simple."

"How can this be done? Although my family is not wealthy, we will do our best to arrange the marriage and will not allow any negligence. It is Qiu's great fortune to be favored by Miss Jiang. How can we treat her with such a rude courtesy and fail to live up to your kindness?"

It is a great blessing for Aqiu to marry Miss Jiang, so how could he neglect her?

After Han's mother realized what was happening, she was overjoyed. Although she knew that her youngest son might not live many more years in this condition, she felt guilty about letting Miss Jiang marry him.

But compared with Aqiu's happiness, these guilt are nothing, so let's forgive her for being selfish for once.

Jiang Siyu suggested: "It's better to have the wedding tomorrow than to choose a day."

"This... seems a bit hasty. I haven't had time to inform my relatives and friends..."

Seeing this, Han Qiu took over the conversation at the right time, "Mother, before Siyu changes her mind, I am afraid that the night will be long and dreams will arise. I would like to welcome her home as soon as possible while her mind remains unchanged, so that I can feel at ease."

When Han's mother heard this, a trace of understanding and relief flashed in her eyes, and she agreed with a smile: "Yes, yes, Qiu'er is still thoughtful. I will start preparing now. Our family is quiet and we don't have many relatives, so it will save a lot of trouble.

She has already taken care of everything on the Han family side. Now only her parents are left. Her mother should be able to understand her, but she doesn't know whether her father will agree.

After Jiang Siyu returned, she explained the matter to Jing Qiudie, "Mom, this is a last resort. If I don't choose to marry Han Qiu, I will have to participate in the election."

Jing Qiudie sighed softly: "Mother can understand, but this child named Han Qiu is wronged."

Jiang Siyu also thought so, but there was no other way now. Her sister was far away in the capital, and even if she was here, she would not be able to easily disobey the order of the dog emperor.

When she told her father Jiang Yan about this, he frowned and said, "This is ridiculous. Marriage is such a big deal. How can it be a joke?"

"Father, I know that this is not a joke, but father, do you have a more comprehensive plan to save your daughter from the deep palace walls? Just imagine, if you are not careful in the harem, you will be doomed, not to mention that the emperor is over fifty years old, and it is hard to say that he is a good match for me. Can you bear to see your daughter enter such a situation and waste her youth in the palace?"

Jiang Yan was speechless for a moment when he heard this, feeling mixed emotions. What he least wanted to see was his beloved daughter stepping into the deep palace walls.

The emperor in the past was not like this. Who would have thought that he would end up in such an absurd situation today? The unpredictability of the world made him sigh, and he sat down dejectedly, falling into deep thought.

"How is Han Qiu?"

"Aqiu is very talented, knowledgeable, and his insights are not inferior to mine. He is indeed a young talent. However, he has been weak since childhood and needs to take medicine all year round."

Jiang Siyu told Jiang Yan everything, which made him feel even more melancholy. "When has our Jiang family ever been involved in such a thing that goes against our will?"

Jiang Siyu's eyes were firm, no longer the ignorant girl she used to be. "Aqiu has been very kind to me. If he doesn't want to divorce, I will take care of him for the rest of his life."

Faced with this difficult situation, Jiang Yan finally sighed. Although there was helplessness between his brows, he could only barely squeeze out a trace of approval.

Jiang Siyu now only hopes to quickly resolve the current situation and then prepare to participate in the provincial examination.

Seeing this, Jiang Yan said earnestly: "Now that you have made up your mind, you must act more cautiously and not let trivial matters disturb your mind. At the same time, you must treat the Han family mother and son with sincerity and not be negligent in the slightest."

"I will always remember my father's teachings." Jiang Siyu replied respectfully.

We need to get married tomorrow, so time is indeed a bit tight.

In the evening, Han's mother brought a large amount of betrothal gifts, followed by Han Yang.

"Aunt, didn't I tell you that you don't need to prepare these?"

Han's mother said awkwardly, "Which girl doesn't need a betrothal gift when getting married? Although your marriage with Qiu is urgent, we still have to follow the proper etiquette. Although time is tight, the intention should not be neglected."

As soon as Han Yang returned home, he heard his mother say that his younger brother was getting married the next day. He was very surprised and insisted on following him.

"Miss Jiang, I'm sorry, my brother can't hold on, so I came here in his place."

Jiang Siyu didn't care about these, but saw Han Yang standing there with an increasingly heavy expression on his face.

"Brother Han, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Han Yang looked aside. His mother had already started chatting with Madam Jiang and hadn't noticed the two of them. He then spoke slowly:

"Miss Jiang, I am a little worried about you and Qiu. Have you thought it over and are you really willing to marry Qiu?"

He had heard about some of the things that happened in the city. Not only him, but his mother should also know about it, but she chose to ignore it.

But Han Yang couldn't ignore it. This was his brother's lifelong happiness. Even though the Jiang family was their benefactor, he didn't want to wrong his brother like this.

Jiang Siyu had actually thought about it before, that she might choose not to get married in her whole life, but now she is forced to get married.

She forced a smile, "Of course I mean it sincerely."

Han Yang said in a serious tone: "Our Aqiu has a pure heart like a child. Although he is physically weak, he is extremely sensitive and delicate. I think you also know that he likes you, so you used him like this to escape the selection, isn't that right?"

Jiang Siyu lowered her eyes: "You are right, but I will take good care of Qiu. You also know that my elder sister is an excellent doctor and has a wide network of contacts. If Qiu becomes my husband, he will be my elder sister's brother-in-law, and she will do her best to help Qiu... Both he and I can benefit. I thought this was a good thing."

Han Yang naturally knew Jiang Nianwei's abilities. She was the most powerful woman he had ever seen.

He paused, and finally accepted her statement. He wanted his brother to be alive and live longer.

Originally, my brother was already terminally ill, but the medicine prescribed by Miss Jiang allowed him to survive until now. Although he is still weak, he is much better than before.

If Miss Jiang is willing to continue helping, maybe she can recover completely in the future.

"I just hope you don't hurt Qiu."

"Aqiu and I are good friends. How could I hurt him? Don't worry, Brother Han."

Han's mother and Jing Qiudie have just discussed tomorrow's wedding, and Han's mother looks very happy.

She always thought that Han Qiu would be lonely for the rest of his life. Although she knew what Jiang Siyu's purpose was, she didn't care as long as Han Qiu was happy.

The Han family's house was rather old and dilapidated, so after the two families discussed it, they prepared to move into the new house.

It was the first time that Han's mother walked into such a spacious yard. She felt guilty, "Siyu, I really wronged you."

"Mother-in-law, I'm not wronged. This was originally prepared for me by my elder sister. You are all a family now, so it's okay for you to move in."

On the second day, the two families held the wedding at the house. Although it was simple, all the necessary etiquette was followed.

Han Yang carried Han Qiu on his back and helped him complete the wedding ceremony. The smile on his face never disappeared that day.

On the wedding night, the couple should have slept together, but Han Qiu took the initiative to say, "Siyu, I will live in the study from now on."

Jiang Siyu understood his intention and said tactfully: "Although the study is quiet, the bed is simple after all. Why don't you let me move into the study? It happens that I need to read books these days to prepare for the upcoming provincial examination."

Han Qiu sighed softly and finally agreed to her request.

Now he felt that even if he died immediately, he would be satisfied.

Jiang Siyu was sitting at her desk when she suddenly thought of Duan Yun. After all, the two of them were just not destined to be together.

Now that she was married, she was determined not to think about him anymore.

After this turmoil, Jiang Siyu always managed to escape safely, but it was a pity for those women who were chosen.

She was full of confidence when she took part in the provincial examination this time, although she still borrowed Han Qiu's identity to take the exam.

The provincial examination also took three days, but it happened that there was no body search this time. Instead, the examinees' belongings were simply checked, and those who had no violations were allowed in. However, the invigilation this time was much stricter than last time.

Fortunately, Jiang Siyu also had experience, and even felt that the questions this time were not as difficult as the last time.

After successfully completing the exam, I was not as embarrassed as last time. The three days passed in a flash.

Han's mother had already prepared a table full of food, and Han Qiu also sat at the table waiting for her to come back, which was rare.

As soon as Jiang Siyu came back, she started to eat voraciously and began to discuss the test questions with Aqiu.

"Siyu, your answer is very clever. I'm sure you will pass the provincial examination this time."

Thinking that his former ambitions could be realized in Jiang Siyu, he was sincerely happy for her.

Even after the provincial examination, Jiang Siyu continued to stay in the study, and Han Qiu had no complaints. He often discussed state affairs, poetry and songs with her, and the two of them treated each other with respect.

Han's mother was even more delighted when she saw Han Qiu's complexion gradually getting better.

As for whether they consummated their marriage or not, it no longer mattered. As long as the two of them could get along peacefully, she would be quite satisfied.

Jiang Siyu wrote down everything that had happened in recent days in a letter and sent it to Jiang Nianwei in Beijing.

In recent days, Jing Zhuo's belly has been getting bigger and bigger. Seeing that she could no longer hide it, she pretended to be sick and hid in the yard, but Jing Qiudie could not hide it from her eyes.

She had already noticed Jing Zhuo's abnormality and wanted to wait for her to speak up, but she didn't expect that she would handle it alone.

It was not until I accidentally saw her slightly round belly that I felt more and more that she looked like a pregnant woman.

"Zhuo'er, what's going on? You should be more than just plump."

Jing Zhuo knew that if she wanted to give birth to this child, she could not do it alone, she would need help from others. Now, her aunt Jing Qiudie was the best helper.

"Actually... Aunt, I met a heartless man. He ran away, leaving behind only the baby in my belly." Jing Zhuo made up a lie at random.

Jing Qiudie was anxious: "Zhuo'er, you should have told your aunt about this earlier. You have suffered so much these days. Since this is the child of an unfaithful man, why didn't you keep this child... and hide it until now? Are you still harboring illusions about that unfaithful man?"

Jing Zhuo quickly explained: "Of course not, I just think that the child is already in my belly, it is fate, and I have decided not to marry again, and I want to have a child of my own. Aunt, believe me, I can raise it alone."

She touched her belly with a gentle look. Although she had no interest in men, she loved children very much.

"Forget it. Your belly is no longer suitable for abortion. It will hurt your body. Since you are not leaving this child for an unfaithful man, your aunt can understand. From now on, you don't have to hide in this courtyard. But if you want to have this child, if you insist on giving birth to it, your reputation will be..."

"I am a man to begin with, so it won't have a big impact on my reputation. I just need to trouble my aunt to take care of me. Also, don't tell my mother about this!"
