After being transformed into the cannon fodder of a villain, I counterattacked and became the protag

Zhang Jinyue snorted: "You have no money? It's easy to handle. Let's do something for me. Once you've done it, you can cancel this IOU. Otherwise, I will let all the teachers and students in the hospital know now. You Qiu Qingquan is a bastard who doesn’t pay back the money he owes!”

How will the teachers and classmates treat him if this matter is publicized?Doesn't he need his reputation anymore?

The top priority is to stabilize the person first.

Qiu Qingquan said with a wooden face, "What do you want me to do?"

Zhang Jinyue put away the IOU. It would have been better if she had done this earlier. She had to force her to use her ultimate move.

"It's very simple. Just go back and hold Zhang Jinxiu for a while and prevent her from going out."

Qiu Qingquan was a little in disbelief, "Is it that simple?"

"What else?" Zhang Jinyue looked like "I suffered a big loss." Fortunately, this IOU was obtained for free, so it didn't hurt to use it.

Otherwise, why would Zhang Jinxiu be worth her fifty taels of silver!

"But, I still want to warm up my books..." Qiu Qingquan couldn't help but said.

Next year will be the provincial examination held every three years, and he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to pass the examination in one fell swoop.

"That's none of my business." Zhang Jinyue said ruthlessly, "You either do what I say now, or you pay back the money."

"You have to think clearly about how important a scholar's reputation is. If it is ruined... tsk tsk!"

Qiu Qingquan endured it, "I agreed, but the academy is not allowed to be absent from school without any reason."

It was obviously impossible for Zhang Jinyue to pass the master's test. Qiu Qingquan felt relieved again when he thought about it.

No matter what, he just didn't want to see Zhang Jinyue's conspiracy succeed.

"That's your business." Zhang Jinyue said unceremoniously: "Otherwise, you think you can get fifty taels for free just by staying at home for a few days? Then you are overestimating your handwriting!"

Qiu Qingquan's face hardened, but he still endured it.

If Jinxiu hadn't left Zhang Jinyue with a clue, how could he have endured her treacherous ridicule? Qiu Qingquan started to complain about his wife.

But wait, when he passes the exam, won't it be easy to deal with Zhang Jinyue?

*********

Several more people died in a few days, and the friction between the migrant workers and the officials became more and more serious, even to the point of almost taking action.

It's just that the officers have weapons in their hands. For the sake of their own lives, they have no intention of confronting him head-on.

Instead, they would gather together from time to time, vaguely looking like they were discussing something in private.

As soon as I walked over, I couldn't hear anything. I could only give him two whips as if to vent my anger, and received several pairs of hateful eyes.

The officers saw this and beat them even more cheerfully, "What's that look in your eyes? How dare you look at your father and me like this, I'm so impatient! Why don't you rest? Come and work for me!"

The sound of whipping continued, and the migrant workers silently got up to work.

County Magistrate Li first went to the bank. He was a civilized man and could not do anything like holding someone's wife hostage to threaten others to donate money.

Of course, if it really comes to a point of necessity, it's not impossible to do this.

After all, merchants just spend some money on it, but this money can save the lives of many people.

But now, the main thing is to borrow money, borrow as much as you can.

After signing and pressing, County Magistrate Li borrowed a total of 10,000 taels of silver from SF Bank.

The money is not much, but it can keep the migrant workers from going hungry.

Because County Magistrate Li was not careful enough and did not destroy the note, Mrs. Li in the government office also saw the note.

Thinking about the way her husband was coaxed out just now, he must have gone to the bank.

Magistrate Li is a cultured person and cannot do anything to threaten other people's wives and daughters, but she doesn't care.

Magistrate Li was so anxious that he was so anxious to raise money these days that his mouth was boiling, and she saw it.

Ever since, a post about the tea party was sent from the government office and delivered to the ladies of various houses.

The ladies didn't know that there was a conflict between their master and the county magistrate, so they thought it was a show of goodwill from the county magistrate's wife, and they didn't want to show her face. They all dressed up and brought their children with them.

The county magistrate's wife said that the two children at home usually don't have many friends, so they hope to have a playmate after coming to Qingshan Town.

It is self-evident what this means, and I heard that the son of the magistrate's family was selected as a scholar at a young age, and he was considered a good son-in-law by many ladies.

When I got to the place, I took my seat. The county magistrate's wife sat above me, and next to her sat a little girl of five or six years old.

"Is this my sister? She looks really cute." A lady praised her.

Not to be outdone, the others slapped Li Shanlan's rainbow fart one after another, making the little girl feel embarrassed.

"You ladies are really good at talking. You even blushed when you praised my Shanlan." Mrs. Li smiled and praised everyone back one by one, which made people feel comfortable both physically and mentally.

As the place became heated, a lady asked, "I heard that my lady has two children. Where is the other child?"

"You're talking about Shen'er, right? That's my eldest son. He will be sixteen this year." Mrs. Li picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then continued: "He is studying at Helin Academy now. , can’t get out easily.”

The ladies looked at each other. They had brought all their daughters of school age here, but the county magistrate was not there?

The faces of the ladies are unpredictable. Could it be that they are playing tricks on them?

Mrs. Li pretended not to be seen and greeted warmly: "Everyone can get to know each other first. It won't be too late to hold a tea party when Shen'er goes on her monthly leave."

There was some sincerity in what he said, and all the ladies put aside their doubts, thinking that Mrs. Li was anxious to show off her son.

The scene became lively again.

As soon as County Magistrate Li left the Shunfeng Bank, he received news from the concierge, Old Li Tou, saying that his wife had restrained the ladies.

He didn't react for a while, and then he couldn't laugh or cry.

But since Madam has already done it for him, he still has to do it, and he can't waste any of Madam's thoughts.

He asked the concierge to find Mr. Zhao and said that the county magistrate wanted to host a banquet for everyone.

Master Zhao thought that their plan had succeeded, and went to find someone proudly.The new official won the first battle after taking office, and the county magistrate was subdued. It would be difficult for him to be tough later.

It was the same restaurant as last time, but this time the window was opened, and there was a glimmer of water outside the window.

Magistrate Li stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, admiring the lotus pond in front of him.

The sun shines on the disk-shaped lotus leaves, reflecting a soft light like satin.

Hearing footsteps outside the door, County Magistrate Li turned around, looked at the crowd and said, "Sit down."

As he spoke, he took the lead and sat down at the main seat, while others also took their seats.

A group of the richest people in Qingshan Town gathered here, but the rich people were not happy, and the atmosphere of the banquet was solemn.

When everyone arrived, Magistrate Li ordered the waiter to serve wine and food.
