Chapter 225 You Rascal (7)_1
Pei Qin sized him up and down until Shen Songming was about to glower. This time, he reluctantly nodded, "Then just write his name!" He turned his head and asked, "What’s your name?"
Sun Lizheng staggered, nearly falling to the ground.
Shen Songming’s handsome face grew darker and darker, "Do consorts often forget things? My name is Shen Songming! Shen, Song, Ming!" He enunciated each word sharply to ensure she would remember.
Pei Qin nodded, "Shen Songming."
Sun Lizheng had come knowing about the siblings’ plight and pitied them. Seeing the situation, he pulled Pei Qin aside and earnestly advised her to be more cautious and not be deceived. Instead of writing her father’s name, she could write that it belonged to her maternal grandfather’s family. Old Scholar Fang would not encroach on their siblings’ fields; once Pei Qin came of age next year, they could transfer the ownership then.
After he spent a long time persuading her, Pei Qin interrupted him, "The silver for buying the land was provided by him, and he wants our family to help him grow medicinal herbs."
Sun Lizheng’s face stiffened for ages, his mouth twitching. Without saying anything, he mentioned that as soon as the wheat in the fields was harvested, he would immediately help her formalize the land deed.
Shen Songming directly called the person selling the land and took Pei Qin to the County Government Office. Once the Jinan Magistrate’s visiting card was presented, Pei Qin saw the County Magistrate, busy with tax grain, hurrying over.
