Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

Chapter 49: Marriage Certificate

Li Baolu has always been placed under Qin Xinfang’s household registration, and she is also a criminal. As long as she does not marry Gu Jingyun, she cannot be placed under Gu Jingyun’s household registration. This is also what the Qin family agreed with the chief.

But the sinners cannot leave the place of exile. If Li Baolu wants to go out with Gu Jingyun, he must issue a marriage certificate to officially marry.

In Qiongzhou, there are many young girls aged 11 or 2 who get married, so the chief did not doubt it, and he was very happy to issue documents to them.

Of course, Li Baolu felt that the most important thing was that Qin Xinfang packed him a big bag of wedding candy, plus a lot of happy meat and happy cloth.

Bringing the document certificate and marriage certificate to the county government office, Li Baolu officially became Gu Jingyun’s little wife.

However, Qin Xinfang spoke to the two of them, “You are still young, although legally married, but not able to consummate the marriage, we must wait for Baolu to turn sixteen, then we will hold a grand wedding for you. After we get married, we will enter the bridal chamber, understand?”

Both Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun responded with a serious look, and Li Baolu patted her chest and assured: “Don’t worry, uncle, I will watch Brother Jin Jingyun to prevent him from messing around.”

Gu Jingyun rolled his eyes at her.

Qin Xinfang sighed at the two children who were neither ashamed nor ashamed, thinking that he was worrying for nothing, and the two children were obviously not enlightened.

Zhang Yiyan went to the city early to rent a house for them, and Qin Xinfang stayed in the county town for one night before going back.

“Uncle, I will ask Zhang Yiyan to take you back.” Gu Jingyun looked at Zhang Yiyan.

Zhang Yiyan hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Mr. Qin, the porters in the caravan are also going home, so you can go back in their cart.”

The people in Zhang Yiyan’s caravan are mostly villagers from one village. They have just finished a business and are about to take a few more days off.

Qin Xinfang glanced at Gu Jingyun, nodded and said, “Okay, let them take me back.”

Zhang Yiyan did not follow them back, but stayed to report the news of the county to Gu Jingyun, “There are not many people taking part in the county examination this year, I have already found out that a young student did not bail out, and the son should be able to ask for something if he comes to the door. Save.”

“Have you found the test takers who tied each other?”

“I’ve already inquired about people. I asked people to find them. They all have intentions. They just want to see the son before they can make up their minds.”

After all, the knot is to sit together.

Gu Jingyun nodded and said, “Then go and invite someone, see you tomorrow at Wanfu Building, and buy some gifts. After you’ve seen the candidates, you’ll go to visit the student.”

Candidates who want to take the county exam must not only write the resumes of three generations of relatives, but also bond with five candidates as insurance. Once one cheats, the other four must sit together, and even get a junior student as a guarantee before reference. .

Gu Jingyun thought it was troublesome, so he left it all to Zhang Yiyan.

Li Baolu asked: “Mutual knots and guarantees are easy to get, so how do you write a resume?”

You must know that Gu Jingyun’s father’s family is in the capital, and there is still a title, so it won’t scare the magistrate to death?

The most important thing is that they only knew from the capital city, but she knew it, and Gu Jingyun didn’t want to be exposed to the eyes of the Gu family too early.

Gu Jingyun showed him his resume, which contained the resumes of the Qin family Taizu, grandfather and Gu Huaijin and Qin Wenyin, but it was very simple.

The Qin family began to be an official in the imperial examinations as early as the previous dynasty. The predecessor was a landlord. It has been nineteen generations since Qin Xinfang’s generation. Among them, there have been two prime ministers, five ministers, and officials below the third rank are countless. Even now, there are still quite a few members of the Qin family serving as officials in the court, and they are truly a scholarly family.

Of course, Gu Jingyun wouldn’t write this directly. He wrote that the great grandfather came from the Qin family in Runing, and was a family of farming and reading… His father was a student of the Qin family, and his parents are now married. He lives in Qiongzhou with his mother’s household registration, and his father is in Beijing.

These two or three sentences can arouse a lot of curiosity, but the space for activities is also wide. If you really want to write down your resume honestly, this piece of paper is probably not enough.

Fortunately, under the leadership of the county magistrate Tan Qian, the Qiongzhou government has an unprecedentedly corrupt atmosphere. As long as you have money, everything can be done. Therefore, it is too easy to pass this resume. Is it true.

Besides, what Gu Jingyun wrote is all true, but he omits a lot of unwritten ones.

“…Tan Qian’s greed for money is not without benefit to us.” Li Baolu sighed.

Gu Jingyun sneered and said, “He is honest, and I naturally have a way to deal with it. I don’t begrudge my sincerity.”

Since he can do something with a little money, why should he spend his energy?

In fact, Gu Jingyun doesn’t like this kind of person even more, because it is full of uncertainty. If it is just a simple test, he is absolutely confident in his talent, and the situation is naturally in his own hands.

But under Tan Qian, as long as he has money, everything is full of uncertainty.

“Let’s not mention that kind of spoiler, let’s pack up. This time we’re going to live in the county seat for a month.”

Li Baolu nodded. They didn’t bring much, but not a lot, but it was easy to organize them.

Zhang Yiyan rented a small yard for them, with three rooms in it, Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu lived in one, and the rest was packed out as a guest room.

The mats and quilts were all pulled by Zhang Yiyan. After they left, this yard was where Zhang Yiyan stayed when he entered the city.

Now he is colluding with the officials guarding the gate of the city, and the business has expanded a lot, and the scope of acquisition has been extended to the good people. If it is not for his identity, he cannot leave Qiongzhou, I am afraid he still wants to sell goods to Guangzhou.

Not to mention Gu Jingyun, even Li Baolu regrets Zhang Yiyan’s talent.

“If he is a good citizen, he must be a big profiteer. It is not difficult to make a career.”

Gu Jingyun said with his brows fixed: “He is a sinner, this is the premise, unless you get credit, don’t think about it.”

The Zhang family is different from the Qin family. The Qin family was exiled to Qiongzhou after the failure of the political struggle to endorse the prince. As long as they have the ability, they can overturn the case.

The Zhang family was exiled here because of corruption and bribery. Among them, there were other culprits such as forcibly occupying land and champerty. There is no accident.

He took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and put it on the desk. He turned his head and said to Li Baolu: “So in the future, we must educate our children well, and we must never allow them to do such illegal things, lest one person make mistakes and harm future generations.”

Li Baolu saw that he had raised the matter of educating the children in the future with a serious face, and she held back her laughter.

There weren’t many things, and the two of them worked together to get it done quickly. Gu Jingyun remembered that they didn’t seem to have lunch yet, so he took Li Baolu’s hand and said, “Come on, let’s go out to eat.”

“By the way, I’ll buy some rice and vegetables, and we’ll cook for ourselves in the evening.”

The young couple went shopping holding hands like an old husband and wife. They were used to it in the village and didn’t really notice anything wrong. They only let go when they noticed that everyone’s eyes were always swept towards them. .

But Gu Jingyun was still walking tightly beside Li Baolu. While moving, the sleeves of the two rubbed against each other, making them seem intimate. Fortunately, everyone no longer paid special attention to them, and only regarded them as brothers and sisters traveling together.

The two found a restaurant for dinner, then took a walk to find a vegetable market to buy vegetables and meat, then turned around to buy some rice noodles, and then wandered home.

When Zhang Yiyan came back with gifts, Li Baolu had already prepared dinner. Seeing the fish and meat on the table, he couldn’t help swallowing and asked, “Have you bought all these pots and pans? Should you bring them from home? .”

“I didn’t buy it,” Li Baolu said while serving him a meal: “I brought two small pots to use on the road. We only live here for a month, so it’s not worth buying those things.”

Although the Qin family has foreign aid and lives better than everyone else, they can’t waste money so much. You must know that they spend a lot of money on traveling this time. Uncle Qin gave them most of the family’s money, and for this reason, he also entrusted the chief Sold several prints.

If you can’t save food and housing, then you can save from these aspects, and you can save a little bit.

Zhang Yiyan heard everyone agree and said, “That’s it, I’ll go back to the village to scavenge some pots and pans, and I don’t need to buy them.”

He doesn’t earn much in business, but his family’s expenses are quite large. His parents are not able to endure hardship. They have not been out of sea or farming for the past two years. How rich.

“I bought a gift for you. I bought it according to the first class. No matter how greedy the old man is, he should be satisfied.”

There are few scholars in Qiongzhou Prefecture, and there are only seven scholars in such a large county, and each scholar can be guaranteed a maximum of three candidates.

Scholars can get some gifts in return, but the most important thing is that they can help younger generations and establish contacts.

Scholars are only exempt from corvée and do not have the qualifications to be appointed as officials. There is also a township exam on top of that, and that’s when 10,000 people cross the single-plank bridge.

No one knows whether the juniors who take the exam now will be one step ahead of themselves in the exam. As long as one person passes the exam, the kindness of today will be rewarded in the future.

Therefore, the scholars are very happy to guarantee others, as long as the other party has real talents and practical learning, and the character is not bad, and it will not affect themselves.

And there is no guarantee for this young man, which shows how high his vision is.

Of course, to use Zhang Yiyan’s words is to ask for money!

Although this person does not have a clearly marked price, but the gift is insufficient, and the money given is less, he will never guarantee it. Similarly, as long as he can afford the money, he will not care whether the other party has real talents and practical knowledge, and he will issue a guarantee letter. .

Gu Jingyun gave a first-class ceremony, and then took out five taels of silver. He didn’t believe that the other party would refuse with a shelf.

Zhang Yiyan felt distressed at the thought of this money, which was his half-month income.

Li Baolu also felt distressed, “Ordinary people come to the county to take the exam, and they can’t spend two taels of money to live, eat, wear, and manage. We only spend five taels for a piece of insurance.”

“I’ll earn it back when I pass the examination.” Gu Jingyun comforted her and said, “I’ll take you to a restaurant in Guangzhou then, haven’t you been talking about wanting to eat roast suckling pig?”

Li Baolu slobbered and said with bright eyes, “That’s what you said!”

“I said it, so you can go to the port to find a boat after you accompany me to sign up tomorrow, and we will set off for Guangzhou as soon as the results come out.”

The    county exam is held in Qiongzhou Prefecture, but the prefectural and the academy exams have to go to Guangzhou.
