Lord God, do you want a wife?

Chapter 104: The spoiled Jin wants to marry a husband (15)

But they seemed to remember something and said, "Miss, the county magistrate of this place doesn't seem to be in charge of things, and there are many bandits in this poor and remote area. They have been unable to do anything about these people for so many years."

Bai Nian chuckled and said, "I have asked Shu'er about this in the past few days. The county magistrate here was demoted from Kyoto. The bandits here are rampant. It's not that he doesn't care, but he can't do anything about it."

Looking at the people who were confused, Bai Nian knocked on the table and continued, "The county magistrate sent a memorial to Kyoto. It was probably because the incident was not serious and no one was killed, so Kyoto did not send anyone over."

The guard standing in front asked in confusion: "Since no one was sent, doesn't that mean they can't defeat these people?"

He was confused as to what he heard, but seeing how confident the young lady was, he almost began to doubt himself.

Is he just too stupid?

Kyoto didn't send anyone over, doesn't that mean they still can't win?

When the guards around heard him speak, they nodded repeatedly, as if what he said was the question that all of them had.

When Bai Nian heard this, he rubbed his temples helplessly.

The guards of the Bai family are good in every way except that they seem not very smart.

She said helplessly, "Just tell me, if there is an opportunity to wipe out most of the bandits in Lu'an County, will the county magistrate just sit there and watch?"

The people in front of him all shook their heads in unison.

"Then we will give him this opportunity."

The guards looked at each other and said nothing more.

They always felt that if they spoke again, Bai Nian would despise them completely.

----------

The next day, Bai Nian got up early on purpose.

When she checked into the inn, she deliberately chose the room with the best location in the inn, so that she could directly see the green mountains and clear waters of Lu'an County from the window.

Of course, you can also see the city gate.

Sure enough, Bai Nian saw Jia Yifan from a distance.

Why are you sure it's him?

Because the coachman who took Jia Yifan to Shinian Village returned to the inn after watching a good show.

Jia Yifan didn't have a horse-drawn carriage to rush back, so he took the only ox cart in the village.

He was wearing a light blue gown that looked of high-quality material, with delicate silver cloud patterns embroidered on the lapels and cuffs. His long hair was gently tied up with a jade hairpin, and a few strands of hair hung casually in front of his forehead. He looked elegant and bookish.

But the way he is dressed now, sitting on a ox cart, is really a bit out of place.

The people around him kept looking at him in surprise, and Bai Nian could even see the corners of Jia Yifan's mouth twitching.

She burst out laughing.

Jia Yifan was sitting on the ox cart. Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was extremely annoyed in his heart.

He could feel the gazes of the people around him like needles pricking him, making him feel very uneasy. Sitting next to him was a villager from the same village who was about to go to the city.

He could even smell the sour odor on them.

The coachman also knew that Jia Yifan had made a lot of money and returned to the village, and had become an official, so he wanted to curry favor with him.

I was kind enough to send him to his destination.

Under normal circumstances, which villager would receive such treatment?

But Jia Yifan couldn't understand his kindness.

As soon as the ox cart arrived at the door of the inn, Jia Yifan got off in a hurry, but his action seemed a little hasty.

He straightened his clothes and tried to make himself look less disheveled.

However, when he looked up at the window of the inn, he saw Bai Nian leaning against the window, and his expression froze instantly.

Bai Nian's expression remained unchanged, and he gave him a bright smile, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, wasn't it his image that Bai Nian liked at that time?

Little did he know that Bai Nian was frantically suppressing his laughter at this moment, fearing that Jia Yifan would notice something.

She took Shu'er with her and prepared to go downstairs to see what was going on and pretend to pick up Jia Yifan.

As soon as he got off, he saw the people on the ox cart holding Jia Yifan tightly and refusing to let go. Several dark fingerprints could be seen on his light blue gown.

Looking at Jia Yifan's face again, his usually gentle expression could hardly be maintained.

"Husband, what's wrong?"

When Jia Yifan heard the voice, his expression changed again and again. He obviously did not expect that he would be seen by Bai Nian in such an embarrassing situation.

He coughed lightly and took a few steps back, avoiding their outstretched hands.

He turned around and gave Bai Nian a fairly gentle smile.

"Nian Nian, you are here."

Bai Nian nodded and asked with pretended concern: "Husband, what happened? They are..."

Jia Yifan looked a little embarrassed. He explained, "These are all elders from my village. They just came to chat with me about the past."

After Jia Yifan said this, everyone around looked at Bai Nian.

"Hey, you little girl are Jia Yifan's wife?" A middle-aged man in his thirties or forties, wearing a tattered short-sleeved shirt, looked at Bai Nian with a revealing gaze.

Bai Nian frowned uncomfortably, but soon an innocent expression appeared on his face, "Yes, uncle, my husband married into our family. It turns out that you are my husband's elders from the same village. I'm sorry for your disrespect." Bai Nian nodded slightly, speaking in a naive tone.

The auntie next to him who had been silent the whole time rushed forward and said, "What's the point of being disrespectful? You rich people always speak in a flowery way. We can't understand you. But you, a little girl, look pretty cute!"

After saying that, she stepped forward and wanted to grab Bai Nian's hand to take a closer look, but Bai Nian dodged her.

She smacked her lips, and a big mole next to her mouth trembled.

As she got closer, she also saw the exquisitely crafted gold hairpin on Bai Nian's head, which was dotted with a few pearls, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"You, girl, the hairpin on your head is so beautiful. We have watched Jia Yifan grow up, and we are his elders. When elders meet, the younger generation should always give some gifts. I see that you..."

Before she could finish her words, she saw Jia Yifan's face turn black.

The reason why he was able to coax Bai's father into marrying Bai Nian was because he was good at observing people's expressions.

Seeing the expression on Bai Nian's face change, he knew that something was wrong.

If the fellow villagers left a bad impression on Bai Nian, would she still go back to the village with him?

Thinking of this, Jia Yifan made a prompt decision and stepped forward to stand beside Bai Nian.

"Aunt Li, you are my elder, so we should pay you a visit. I will go back to the village with Nian Nian in a few days, and I will definitely visit your house then."

Aunt Li glanced at Jia Yifan unhappily. How could she not see what he meant? Wasn't it that he just couldn't bear to part with the hairpin on his wife's head?

But now that things have been said, Aunt Li can’t hold on to it any longer.

Otherwise, she will get nothing and she won’t know where to cry.

Several people from the same village saw this scene and looked at them with calculation in their eyes.

It was like seeing a moving mountain of gold.

No wonder there was such a big fuss when Jia Yifan returned to the village this time. They thought he had worked hard to get there, but now it seems that he got here by clinging to a wealthy man and living off him.

Bai Nian rolled his eyes when he heard what Jia Yifan said.

He doesn't even use his brain when he speaks. He really thinks she is being taken advantage of.

According to Jia Yifan, all the villagers are his elders, so that doesn't mean that everyone in the village has to give him gifts.

He is just a neighbor with no relationship at all. When he becomes rich in the future, will he have to support the whole village?

You are really sick.

Jia Yifan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Aunt Li no longer coming forward. Just as he was about to take Bai Nian into the inn, he felt his sleeve being pulled.

"Jia family boy, you haven't paid for the ox cart ride yet!"

Hearing this, Jia Yifan felt as if his head exploded with a buzzing sound.

Everyone around looked at him.

Jia Yifan was very concerned about his reputation, and he understood what they meant almost immediately after looking at them.

The look seemed to be saying, you are dressed like a nobody but you can't even afford the bus fare.

He almost gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Liu, don't people usually go into the city for free?"

The old man called Uncle Liu curled his lips and said with some disdain: "That's for the villagers. Now that you've married into our family, you're no longer a member of our village! Isn't there a saying that goes, a daughter who's married off... a son who's been married off is like spilled water, isn't there?"

"Hahahaha!"

The people around who were watching the fun burst into laughter.

Jia Yifan's forehead twitched, but he finally took out a hundred dollars from his pocket, threw it into Liu Bo's arms, and left.

He didn't even care about Bai Nian behind him.

Aunt Li and Uncle Liu saw Jia Yifan leaving and didn't plan to leave immediately.

Even though Jia Yifan is gone, isn’t his wife still here?

Several people looked at each other and prepared to step forward to surround Bai Nian.

But unexpectedly, a few big men appeared out of nowhere, holding knives and protecting Bai Nian behind them.

He stared at them with a ferocious expression. They knew they could not take advantage of him, so they left in embarrassment.

Bai Nian looked at their backs with disgust.

In the original owner's memory, there was not a single good person in this village.

The saying that poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people is fully reflected in them.

Without the 00 scanning mission, Bai Nian was not sure whether the mission targets were people from Shinian Village.

Tsk, I still miss 099 a little bit. Even though he’s not very reliable, at least he responds to everything.

----------

The next day, Bai Nian was awakened by a knock on the door.

She slowly opened her eyes and covered her ears a little irritably.

Then he heard Shu'er's voices talking softly outside the door. Bai Nian couldn't hear it clearly, but he guessed who was outside.

Jia Yifan lost face in front of the villagers yesterday, so he might be anxious today and want her to go back to the village as soon as possible.

Although Lu'an County is small, there are many people doing business. Bai Nian lay quietly on the bed, heard the hawkers' cries outside, and sighed.

She has come to the conclusion that if she wants to pass the dungeon in the future, she must not buy a house facing the street because it is too noisy.

Bai Nian stood up and heard the conversation outside had disappeared, so he knew that Shu'er had sent the people away.

She called Shu'er loudly, and Shu'er came into the room.

Bai Nian leaned against the bed and asked lazily, "Who has been here?"

Shu'er pouted, stepped forward to help Bai Nian put on his clothes, and said unhappily, "It's still that ungrateful, white-eyed wolf."

Shu'er had been following Bai Nian these days, so she naturally knew that Jia Yifan wanted to do something bad to Bai Nian.

In her eyes, Father Bai is the best man. It was Father Bai who picked her up when she was homeless and begging on the street.

She was given clothes and food, and was taught to read.

As a servant in the Bai Mansion, although what I wore was not silk or satin, it was brand new cotton clothes.

Shu'er had heard of Jia Yifan before. He used to be a doctor at Baicaotang. Somehow he suddenly became famous in Jiangdu.

Many rich girls are willing to see him for treatment of their minor ailments.

Now that she thought about it, she probably went there for that face.

After all, many doctors are old men with white beards, and Jia Yifan is really an exception among them.

Maybe Jia Yifan is actually a quack doctor!

Shu'er cursed in her heart, and the expression on her face was really not good, without any smile at all.

"Miss, he came to ask you to go to the village, saying that his mother missed you very much when you go back this time, and that the conditions in the village are difficult, so he asked you to bring all the maids with you. He clearly said before that his house couldn't accommodate everyone, so he asked you to go. How hypocritical."

Shu'er didn't stop her hands while scolding, and she neatly tied up Bai Nian's hair.

Shu'er had very deft hands and could make many buns. She expertly divided the hair into two strands and gently tied them into two symmetrical buns on top of her head. She tied them lightly with a hair rope embroidered with gold thread, and the two strands of hair naturally fell on her shoulders.

This time Shu'er didn't wear a woman's bun, but a bun with her hair hanging down and parted.

This was the hairstyle the original owner wore most often before she got married.

Shu'er's attitude was obvious, and Bai Nian happily gave her an admiring look.

Shu'er was very satisfied with her combed hair. Then, as if she had thought of something, she grabbed Bai Nian's hand and said, "Miss! Jia Yifan is not a good guy. Don't be fooled by his sweet words again!"

Bai Nian chuckled and said coquettishly, "My dear Shu'er, I'm not stupid, don't worry!"

Shu'er and the original owner grew up together and were as close as sisters, so Bai Nian would naturally maintain this character.

And Bai Nian thought Shu'er was really cute.

Bai Nian walked out of the room with light steps. Although it was still early, there were already early risers eating breakfast downstairs in the inn.

Among them is Jia Yifan.

Hearing the sound of someone coming down, Jia Yifan looked up immediately, and when he saw it was Bai Nian, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He walked forward with a look of deep affection, "Niannian, Shu'er should have told you that my mother really wants to see you, so we have to leave today."

After saying that, he was afraid that Bai Nian would not agree, so he added: “I know you are used to being served by servants. This time we will bring everyone with us, and we will definitely not let you get used to it.”

Before he could finish his prepared speech, he saw the person in front of him nodded obediently.

The unfinished words got stuck in my throat.

The stone in his heart fell suddenly.

He had suspected before that Bai Nian had not given him any face during this period, and wondered if he had discovered something.

Now it seems that it was just because the journey was too long that she got into a bad mood.

He said that his tricks that had always worked in Jiangdu had no effect on Bai Nian.

It was obvious that those rich young ladies in Jiangdu were being fooled by him.
