After the little cannon fodder was reborn, he chose the villain childhood sweetheart

"Hey, what's going on in Luohe Town recently? So many big things have happened."

"What's the matter? Tell me about it."

"You idiot, don't you know? The young master of the Qian family was beaten by a few poor scholars who didn't know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was! Madam Qian was so angry that she kicked them out of the Qian family's private school. I heard that the poor scholar who led the fight was called Zhang Caijin. Not only did he instigate others to beat up the young master, he also bought things on credit at Qingfeng Bookstore, borrowing dozens of taels of silver!"

"What? This Mr. Zhang is so bold? He doesn't want fame anymore? Isn't this destroying his own future?"

"That's right! How can a scholar be so vicious? Not only did he form cliques, but he was also so stupid as to provoke the Qian family. The Qian family has no power, but they are rich! Who doesn't recognize Qian as their father these days? Madam Qian is kind-hearted. She only sent Zhang Caijin to the county government office and didn't even settle accounts with him in private!"

"How do you know so much?"

"Zhang Caijin's confession was posted on the notice board at the entrance of the town. Who in the town doesn't know about this?"

"Really? I'll go check it out later. Didn't you say a lot of big things happened? What else is going on?"

"There is also a scandal. It is said that the girl from the brunch restaurant in the town is named Jiang Lian'er. This girl has a good appearance, but she is not simple! Not only is she having an affair with the second son of the Liu family, she is also ambiguous with the eldest son of the Qian family, and she is even involved with many rich young men..."

"Oh, Jiang Lian'er? I seem to have heard of her, but I didn't expect she has so many tricks..."

"Well, you can't judge a person by his appearance..."

The brothers Jiang Wan and Xie Dazhu were listening with great interest.

Unfortunately, the customer bought the rice and left, and the waiter didn't continue talking.

Jiang Wan and the other two felt a little sorry. After buying firewood, rice, oil and salt, they walked out of the store.

Xie Erzhu was more active, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is what the grain shop clerk said just now true?"

Jiang Wan chuckled and said, "Didn't that guy say that there was Zhang Caijin's confession on the notice board at the entrance of the town? Let's go take a look."

In order to find out what was going on, the three of them rushed to the town entrance.

A crowd gathered in front of the signboard at the entrance of the town.

Xie Erzhu was illiterate, so he just asked an aunt.

What the aunt said was almost the same as what the clerk in the grain store said.

Xie Erzhu sighed with shock, "I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to be so bold that he dared to beat up the young master of the Qian family and even bought things on credit at the bookstore. I heard that he owed the bookstore nearly 40 taels of silver. That's 40 taels, how dare he do that?"

Xie Dazhu remained silent, but he did say, "He asked for it."

Jiang Wan burst out laughing. She fully agreed with Xie Dazhu's opinion.

Zhang Caijin has brought disaster upon himself.

It seems that Madam Qian sent Zhang Caijin to the county government office that day and asked the county magistrate to punish Zhang Caijin.

After the confession was posted, Zhang Caijin's reputation was completely ruined.

At least he was too embarrassed to stay in Luohe Town.

Jiang Wan felt particularly happy when she thought that Zhang Caijin, who had always treated the original owner as a fool, had been taught a lesson.

While shopping along the way, Jiang Wan spent money like water, buying whatever she liked.

I also stopped by Qingfeng Bookstore on the way.

The owner of Qingfeng Bookstore had returned. After learning what had happened, he scolded Fu Wu and Wu Quan severely.

Fortunately, they had Zhang Caijin's IOU.

There is an IOU with Zhang Caijin's fingerprints on it, so there is no need to worry that he will deny it.

When Jiang Wan left, Fu Wu was being scolded by the shopkeeper.

When they saw Jiang Wan coming in, they had different expressions.

The shopkeeper felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have tried to curry favor with Jiang Wan in the first place, otherwise he wouldn't have caused so many troubles.

Fu Wu's eyes lit up and he trotted over as if he had seen reinforcements.

"Miss Jiang, what are you doing here?"

Jiang Wan noticed that the atmosphere between the two was not right, and after a little guess, she realized that the shopkeeper was unhappy that Zhang Caijin was buying things on credit in the name of her and Xie Lan.

She deliberately said, "Boss, you are back. I want to settle a score with you."

The shopkeeper's eyes almost fell to the ground.

What was she going to settle with him?

It was good enough that he didn't go after Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan took the initiative and wanted to go after him?!

The shopkeeper came over with a bad look on his face and said, "Miss Jiang, that scholar Zhang is an acquaintance of yours. He even used your name to come to our shop and borrowed several dozen taels of silver on credit. Shouldn't you pay off the debt for him?"

The shopkeeper knew Zhang Caijin's family situation. They were extremely poor. They might not even be able to come up with eight taels, let alone thirty-eight taels.

Although he had the IOU, Zhang Caijin had no money, so why should he go?

Didn’t he lose dozens of taels of goods in vain?

Jiang Wan came at the right time. Zhang Caijin had said before that he and Jiang Wan were old acquaintances from the same village and were close friends.

This matter was initiated by Jiang Wan, so it is natural for her to repay the debt.

Jiang Wan was originally planning to go to Qingfeng Restaurant to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstone for Maodan and the others to use for their reading and writing.

Unexpectedly, the owner of the bookstore would blackmail her.

She pulled her lips into a smile and said, "Boss, you still have the nerve to ask me for money? I haven't settled the score with you yet. Because of the mistake made by your shop assistant, my cousin and I were branded as people who didn't pay back the goods on credit. We were stopped by your two young men on the street and people pointed at us. If I hadn't brought up Master Liu, I would have had to take the blame."

Master Liu?

Does she know Mr. Liu?

The shopkeeper was surprised and doubtful, and looked at Jiang Wan a few more times.

Seeing that she looked so noble and calm, and didn't look like she was lying at all, he couldn't help but believe it to about 70%.

The bookstore was actually in the wrong regarding the credit sale, but the owner was unwilling to accept it, so he just blamed Jiang Wan for it.

The shopkeeper said awkwardly, "Miss Jiang, I didn't discipline you strictly enough. This matter has nothing to do with you, so don't take it to heart. Why did you come to our shop today?"

Jiang Wan didn't like dealing with people who couldn't distinguish between right and wrong, so he went to the bookstore opposite without looking back.

The shopkeeper and Fu Wu watched Jiang Wan come out from the other side after buying a large pile of paper and pens and ink, their eyes red with envy.

Jiang Wan didn't bother with the troubles at Qingfeng Bookstore anymore. She had almost finished buying things, and before returning to the village, she wanted to go to Qian's house to take a look.

One was that she had promised Mrs. Qian last time, and the other was that she wanted to see the effect of the Rejuvenating Pill.

On the way to Qian's house, a group of people gathered on the roadside ahead, whispering to each other.

Jiang Wan, thinking that one would be a fool if he didn't watch the excitement, squeezed into the crowd and walked to the front.

I saw a girl in mourning in front of me, about seventeen or eighteen years old, quite pretty, crying with tears in her eyes.

In front of her was a torn straw mat, and in front of the mat was a piece of white paper with four big words written on it: Selling myself to bury my father.

I had only seen this scene in TV dramas and novels before, but I didn’t expect Jiang Wan to encounter it.

"Uncles and aunts, please be kind and buy me so that I can buy a coffin for my father to bury him!"

The girl kowtowed several times to the people around her, her voice sounding sad.

One or two people couldn't bear it and asked, "Girl, what's your name? How much do you want?"
