Chapter 289 Plan
Meng Shushen was silent for a while, then said, "To be honest, I don't know what to do now."
"Although it's still early, it will take a lot of time to get to the capital. In addition, you have to go to the capital 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 arrangements early, so as not to leave too late. If you are delayed on the way, you will miss the auspicious day for the imperial examination."
"I understand what the young lady said. 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."
"In fact, the son of the prefect was in charge of entertaining us today, and he mentioned the matter of sponsoring poor students to go to Beijing to take the imperial examination. If I agree to him, the travel expenses problem can be solved. But for some reason, I did not agree to the son of the prefect. Maybe it was because his condescending attitude made me uncomfortable, or maybe I didn't want to owe him such a big favor."
Although he had not yet entered the officialdom, he knew that these officials would not do anything without benefits. If he owed them a favor, he would have to pay it back at double the price in the future.
"You even rejected the prefect's offer, which shows that you are a man of your 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 settled Tang Yichen, the servant handed the hangover 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 you for help. Then we will write a letter and put our fingerprints on it. Regardless of whether I pass the imperial examination or not, I will pay back 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 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 a little too engrossed in talking to him!" 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 passed the imperial examination, he should go to the capital earlier. 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 a little fame, who will be convinced by the students in the world? He has 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, we can 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, "Master Jiang brought back two girls."
"Where did it come from?"
"They seem to be the courtesan and maids of Wanhua Tower. Master Jiang redeemed them."
"Oh." Qin Huiyin frowned.
She remembered what Song Ruize said. Song Ruize said that the master and servant were originally rescued by Jiang Qibin, but they kept asking to see Song Ruize for no reason, and they obviously knew which leg was the real thick leg. Now that Song Ruize ignored them, they hooked up with Jiang Qibin again.
Although the prostitutes in the brothel also have their own difficulties, most of them have no choice. It is normal for them to use some tricks to survive. However, she always felt that this courtesan was disliked.
sleep.
The next day, Qin Huiyin heard the sound of laughter as soon as she arrived in the backyard.
A master and servant walked towards them. One was dressed elegantly, like a lotus in clear water. She looked at Qin Huiyin curiously, her eyes were clear and pure. The other was cute and well-behaved, like a girl next door. When they saw her, they were a little restrained and looked at her curiously from time to time, like a frightened kitten.
"Where is Brother Qibin now?" Qin Huiyin asked the servant next to her.
The servant said, "I am talking to Master Song in the study."
"Okay, I got it." Qin Huiyin was about to leave, but the beautiful woman came towards her.
She bowed gracefully, looked at Qin Huiyin, and said softly: "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 will inevitably bother you in the future, so I wanted to say hello to you, young lady."
"Oh, I see."
Qin Huiyin turned and left.
Chun Jiao lowered her voice and said, "Miss, this is Mr. Song's sister. If you can get along well with her, you might be able to impress Mr. Song."
"The person who saved us was Brother Qibin. We should think about how to repay him. It has nothing to do with Master Song." Molan said.
"Didn't Miss like Mr. Song before? Mr. Jiang is indeed very good to Miss, but compared to Mr. Song, Mr. Jiang is really not worthy of Miss."
"Don't talk nonsense." Molan scolded, "Don't forget who saved us yesterday. If it wasn't for Brother Qibin, we would be dead now."
Qin Huiyin came to the study and said to Jiang Qibin, who had not left yet, "I just met two girls. I heard that Brother Qibin brought them back. Brother Qibin, where did those two girls come from? How do you plan to arrange for them?"
Jiang Qibin glanced at Song Ruize cautiously, looking a little uncomfortable.
Yesterday he had a quarrel with Song Ruize. 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 one sentence.
——You can redeem Molan if you want, 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 insisted on redeeming Molan, 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, and then the current situation came about.
