The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Meng Shushen was silent for a while, then said, "To be honest, I don't know what to do right now."

"Although it's still early, the journey to the capital will take a considerable amount of time. You must also go there in advance to familiarize yourself with the environment, find a good academy to continue your studies, and wait for the next imperial examination. It's best to make all the arrangements early so you don't leave too late. Any delays along the way could mean you miss the auspicious date for the examination."

"I understand what you said, young lady. But my family is poor, and the cost of going to Beijing to take the exam is too high. I don't know if I can raise the money."

"If it's for travel expenses, I can lend it to you."

Meng Shushen stopped and looked at Qin Huiyin in surprise: "We just met by chance, why do you trust me so much?"

Qin Huiyin said, "Just think of it as me trusting my own judgment! Since you and my brother are destined to be together, you can go to the capital together. I will arrange a carriage and a driver for you."

"Actually, the prefect's son, who hosted us today, offered to sponsor impoverished students to travel to Beijing for the imperial examinations. If I had agreed, the travel expenses would have been solved. But for some reason, I didn't agree. Perhaps it was because his condescending attitude made me uncomfortable, or perhaps I didn't want to owe him such a big favor."

Although he hadn't yet entered officialdom, he knew that officials wouldn't work unless they were profitable. If he owed them a favor, he would have to pay it back double in the future.

"Young Master even rejected the prefect's offer of recruitment, which shows that he is a man of his own ideas. Then I have nothing to worry about." Qin Huiyin said, "How about this, I will lend you a certain amount of silver, and you can pay me back with interest later."

Meng Shushen carried Tang Yichen back to the room.

Qin Huiyin had asked the servant to prepare some hangover soup. When he was settling Tang Yichen down, the servant handed the soup to Meng Shushen.

Meng Shushen thanked her again and responded to her proposal, "Girl, give me a month. If I don't raise the money in a month, I will shamelessly ask for your help. Then we will write a letter and put our handprints on it. Regardless of whether I pass the imperial examination or not, I will repay the money. Girl, goodbye."

Qin Huiyin looked at Meng Shushen's back and said, "This guy is really tough. My brother can interact with him more often. It will definitely be beneficial in the future."

"You really care about him." Song Ruize said sourly, "You even arranged some connections for him."

"Brother, you haven't returned to your room to rest yet?"

"This Meng guy is really charming. He made you completely forget about your own brother." Song Ruize became even more unhappy.

"No, I was just so engrossed in talking to him that I forgot about myself!" Qin Huiyin said, "Brother, you're the best. You won't be mad at me, right?"

"I'm not that stingy," Song Ruize said, "but your idea is correct. Since he has already passed the imperial examination, he should go to the capital as soon as possible. There are so many students in the world, and many of them have passed the imperial examination. The top three are born among the imperial scholars, but if he doesn't have some fame, who will respect him? He needs to plan for himself well."

"It's too late today, let's go back to our room and rest! As for Big Brother's matter, there's no rush, let's discuss it when we get back."

Qin Huiyin had just returned to her room and laid down when she heard a commotion outside. She came out in her coat and asked what was going on. The servant didn't know, so she rushed to the front yard to find out.

After a while, the servant came back and said, "Young Master Jiang brought back two girls."

"Where did it come from?"

"They seem to be the courtesan and maids of Wanhua Tower. Young Master Jiang redeemed them."

"Oh." Qin Huiyin frowned.

She remembered what Song Ruize had said. He had said that the master and servant were originally rescued by Jiang Qibin, and they kept asking to see him for no reason, clearly knowing which leg was the thickest. Now that Song Ruize ignored them, they were hooking up with Jiang Qibin again.

Although the women in the brothels had their own difficulties, most of them had no choice. It was normal for them to use some tricks to survive. However, she always felt that this courtesan was disliked.

go to bed.

The next day, Qin Huiyin heard the sound of laughter as soon as she arrived in the backyard.

A master and servant approached. One was elegantly dressed, like a lotus in clear water. However, her waist and charming eyes were captivating. The other was cute and well-behaved, like the girl next door.

"Where is Brother Qibin now?" Qin Huiyin asked the servant next to her.

The servant said, "He is talking to Master Song in the study."

"Okay, I got it." Qin Huiyin was about to leave, but the courtesan came towards her.

She bowed gracefully, looked at Qin Huiyin, and said with her hands covering her mouth: "Young lady, you must be Mr. Song's sister! I heard Brother Qibin talk about her. My name is Molan, and this is my maid Chunjiao."

"Is there something?" Qin Huiyin said calmly.

"Brother Qibin redeemed me and said he would take me back to my hometown. I'm bound to bother you later, so I wanted to say hello to you, young lady."

"Oh, I know."

Qin Huiyin turned and left.

Chun Jiao lowered her voice and said, "Miss, this is Master Song's sister. If you can get along well with her, maybe you can impress Master Song."

"There's no rush now, let's wait and see!" Molan said, "I heard from Jiang Qibin that Mr. Song's sister is a very powerful person. She's not an ignorant girl. It won't be easy for us to build a good relationship with her."

"Back then, Jiang Qibin was just like Master Song, indifferent to the young lady. He was always reluctant to take action against her. But now he is completely bewitched by her. He is planning to marry her, but he doesn't think about how a nobody like him can be worthy of such a beautiful lady." Chun Jiao said.

Qin Huiyin came to the study and said to Jiang Qibin, who had not yet left, "I just met two girls. I heard that Brother Qibin brought them back. Brother Qibin, where did those two girls come from? What are you going to do with them?"

Jiang Qibin glanced at Song Ruize cautiously, his expression a little uncomfortable.

Yesterday he and Song Ruize had a quarrel. This was the first quarrel between the brothers since they became friends, and it was over a woman.

Jiang Qibin wanted Song Ruize to redeem Molan, but Song Ruize was unwilling. Later, he sent someone to find him, gave him the money for redeeming Molan, and only told him a message.

——You can redeem Molan, but this silver is the bounty he should have received, so this silver is for Molan and has nothing to do with him.

If Jiang Qibin doubted Molan's redemption, he would be responsible for the subsequent troubles. In short, this matter had nothing to do with him.

Jiang Qibin got the money and immediately redeemed Molan. Although Jiang Qibin didn't want to have anything to do with Molan, he was secretly happy.
