Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

"Let's get down to business. What brings you here?"

Jiang Changtian, impatient with Jiang Shuixian's complaints, interrupted her directly.

Jiang Shuixian covered her face and said shyly, "I'm not young anymore, and my family wants to arrange a marriage for me. But the men they've arranged are either cripples or scoundrels, so I came to you, my elder brother. There must be quite a few of your classmates who aren't married yet... Father said that you should find me a suitable match."

Fearing that Jiang Changtian would not agree, she simply used her father's name.

Mother mistreated Jiang Changtian, but Father did not.

She didn't ask for much; someone like the young master who sent Jiang Changtian the invitation last time would be fine.

Qin Niangzi burst out laughing, "Hahahaha, listen to this, what a funny joke! They came here to ask Jiang Changtian to be their matchmaker, oh my, this family is shameless!"

"I can't help you with this. If there's nothing else, you can go back." Jiang Changtian was speechless and refused outright.

"I don't care. If you don't take care of me, I'm not leaving."

Jiang Shuixian squatted on the ground, acting spoiled, but her eyes didn't forget to survey the courtyard.

It has green bricks and red tiles, and there's even a swing set inside. It's really beautiful.

She finally made it to the county town, how could she just go back like this? If she could stay here, wouldn't she be a girl from the county town from now on?

Lin Shuyun sat at the table, filing her nails with a wooden stick, not even glancing at Jiang Shuixian.

“This is my rented yard. You think you can stay by throwing a tantrum? Believe me or not, I’ll throw you out.”

Saving Jiang Shuixian was purely coincidental, and she wouldn't be happy if she were blamed for it.

“Sister-in-law, you can’t stand seeing others do well just because you married my brother, a scholar. If you marry me off and I marry well, wouldn’t that mean you have another relative? I can help you and my brother in the future. I’m not going to stay at your house forever.”

Jiang Shuixian made advances towards Lin Shuyun.

She realized that her older brother, Jiang Changtian, was a henpecked husband, and that Lin Shi was the one who called the shots in the family.

Lin Shuyun blew the dust off her fingers. "What you say sounds nice, but it doesn't change the fact that you're an ingrate, and I don't need you as a relative."

She didn't think Jiang Shuixian was a grateful person at all.

"Sister-in-law..."

"Jiang Changtian, come out here!"

Just as Lin Shuyun was about to get up and shoo them away, the half-closed courtyard gate was pushed open.

Xian'an appeared at the door, fuming.

Having taken the blame for Jiang Changtian for no reason, Xian'an became increasingly angry upon returning home and went to settle accounts with Jiang Changtian.

Especially Jiang Changtian's aunt, if she hadn't claimed to be Jiang Changtian, would he have been arrested and tortured in jail for a day?

It was already dusk. Xian'an had been angry all day and only came over after eating two large bowls of rice.

Especially the prisoner in jail who treated him like a pretty boy and harassed him. Xian'an felt disgusted just thinking about it, and even felt like throwing up after eating his full meal.

"You're at home? Why didn't the officials arrest you?"

Xian'an had heard that Jiang Changtian was at the academy, so he went there to look for him. Then he heard that Jiang Changtian had gone home, so he came back here instead.

"Why are you arresting me? I haven't done anything wrong." Jiang Changtian looked like he didn't know anything.

"Damn it, you have the nerve to say that? I just came to your house to buy a pear, and you called me Jiang Changtian by my aunt's name. I was inexplicably arrested and thrown into jail. Tell me, am I wronged or not?"

Xian'an couldn't help but curse the national essence.

He couldn't swallow his anger without ten pears as compensation.

"My aunt was in the wrong. I'll sell you these pears at a low price as an apology. How about five taels?"

Lin Shuyun went into the kitchen, came out with a small basket and handed it to Xian'an with an expression that said, "You got a great deal."

"Ten?"

Xian'an did the math in his head: ten for five taels was half the price, which seemed... acceptable.

"No, six."

If you buy six pears for five taels of silver, what's the difference between getting a good deal and not getting a good deal?

Xian'an:......

That's really cheap.

"Are you going to buy it or not? If not, then forget it. I apologize to you on behalf of my aunt. She just called out once, she didn't specifically call you. Those yamen runners arrested the wrong person. You should be causing trouble for the yamen, not coming to my husband." Lin Shuyun looked at Xian'an with a smile.

Xian'an... his ears turned red, which was quite embarrassing.

How can she be so smart? No, how can she be so unreasonable?

Qin Niangzi chimed in, "Yes, what does it have to do with me? My old eyes are failing me. I thought it was that brat Jiang Changtian who came back. I was wrong."

Qin Niangzi thought to herself, "Wow, there are so many pears in the house! I just went into the kitchen at noon, and they were all gone. How come they've suddenly reappeared?"

Yunyun hid the pear somewhere she didn't know.

"Buy," Xian'an squeezed out the word through gritted teeth.

Then he took out five taels of silver, took the small basket from the table, and snorted at Jiang Changtian as he left.

Since these pears were really delicious, he decided not to send them to his aunt this time; he would eat them himself.

"What a fool with all that money! Are all rich young masters a bit dim-witted and so easily fooled?" Madam Qin clicked her tongue as she picked up the five taels of silver.

Jiang Shuixian was stunned when she saw Xian'an, and when he took out five taels of silver, she was completely captivated.

Seeing Xian'an leave, he involuntarily followed her out.

Seeing this, Madam Qin slammed the door shut.

"Aren't you going to take a look?"

Lin Shuyun raised an eyebrow and looked at Jiang Changtian.

“Everyone has their own destiny. What she does is none of my business. If she were a good person, I would care. The problem is that she isn’t, and she doesn’t know how to repay kindness.” Jiang Changtian said, looking at Lin Shuyun.

He was reborn, and the first thing he learned was that one shouldn't be overly kind.

Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.

"You're so talkative, how can you be so good at it? What would you like to eat, my husband? I'll make it for you." Lin Shuyun pinched Jiang Changtian's cheek.

Jiang Changtian couldn't help but blush. What did he mean by "talking on and on"? He just thought it and did it.

However, he still honestly said that he wanted to eat noodles.

……

……

"Young master, young master, wait for me!"

Jiang Shuixian followed Xian'an out, striking a pose as if to strike up a conversation, but Xian'an didn't even turn around to look. In desperation, she simply called out.

Xian'an turned around, puzzled. "Is there something you need?"

"I... Ouch, I twisted my ankle." Jiang Shuixian pretended to fall, weakly waving her handkerchief at Xian'an.

Seeing this, Xian'an got goosebumps all over his body and turned around to run towards the academy as if his life depended on it.

Dad, Mom, it's not even dark yet, and he's already encountered a ghost.

"Master, Master!"

Jiang Shuixian called out several times but couldn't stop him, and got up from the ground in a fit of anger.

"Hmph, that jerk has no sense of romance at all. It's driving me crazy... Ouch, it hurts so much."

Jiang Shuixian walked with a slight limp; she had actually twisted her ankle when she did it on purpose, though not seriously.

Jiang Shuixian soon discovered that she couldn't find her way back.

As night fell, the brothels along the street were lit up with lights.
