After dinner, the unlucky Ji Que sat in the room with his legs crossed, enjoying the rare peace.

After that, he rummaged through the cabinet and took out an unpretentious gray package.

The package was opened carefully, and inside was half a moldy sesame seed cake and two letters.

One letter was pasted with red clay, and it was a standard engagement letter; the other was sent from the White Mansion in Tianren City three years ago, and it was the woman's grandfather reminding him of the engagement.

This is the most troublesome place for Ji Que.

Ji Que's late grandfather was a sesame seed cake seller. There was a famine that year, and one person was about to starve to death, so he gave him a sesame seed cake.

The man survived by doing this, and later became prosperous, so he gave old man Ji half a piece of sesame seed cake and made a marriage contract.

That is, when Ji Que was seventeen years old, he would go to the Bai Mansion in Tianren City to complete the agreement with Miss Bai's family.

And this year, Ji Que is just seventeen years old.

In this dynasty called "Sheng Dynasty", which is similar to the ancient Tang Dynasty, marriage contracts are quite important.

If Ji Que doesn't care about the engagement, then if he marries another girl, it will be rude.

Similarly, unless he is dead or the engagement is broken, the woman can choose someone else to marry, otherwise it is also impolite.

Inexplicably, Ji Que has an extra fiancée.

Don't have a car or a house, don't care about your career, you don't even need a bride price, just rely on half a moldy sesame seed cake and a letter, and you can get a wife who should be a lady.

Regarding this kind of thing, apart from the initial freshness and a little excitement, Ji Que, who is a single dog in two lives, is at a loss for the rest.

It is reasonable to say that the white girl in the marriage contract should be a lady of every family, but he doesn't know how tall or short she is, whether her breasts are big or not, whether her legs are long or not, and her temperament. Moreover, a person like him is destined not to get married so early.

It is said that Tianren City is very prosperous, even more prosperous than Sangshui County, and it is the most prosperous city in the Northland.

That, too, means more shit, flying bricks, pickpockets, strongmen, gang people, officials who are darker than gangs, etc.

If he really married Miss Bai, then Miss Bai would face a husband who often stepped on dog shit, lost money, was robbed, killed, hit by horses, and chased by tigers when he went out.

Miss Bai might go crazy, right?

So for the happiness of himself and Miss Bai's family, the kind Ji Que probably wanted to cancel this marriage that was not in the right family.

It is really reckless for ancient people to set up a marriage without even meeting each other.

But even going to divorce is a troublesome thing.

Sangshui County is at least a thousand miles away from Tianren City, even if there is not much delay, it will take ten and a half months.

The key is to wrap around.

If it wasn't for the rewards he earned in the next few months, Ji Que would still be worrying about money.

In the previous life, Ji Que's biggest dream was to be able to travel and live around after becoming rich and free.

The travel he likes is not to go to the scenic spots to check in, but to stay in a place he likes for a few years, and when he gets bored, he will go to another place to see another scenery.

At that time, the ideal was very full, but the reality was very skinny.

Not to mention the freedom of wealth, he had just emptied his wallet to take out the mortgage, but he encountered a financial crisis plus unemployment, got sick again, and almost fell into depression.

Later, unfortunately, there was a car accident.

The moment the truck hit him, Ji Que only felt the past flow through his mind like water, and one of them was particularly clear.

That's when he discovered that he was never close to living the life of his dreams.

So when he was sent to this world by truck, he always remembered this dream.

If you are rich, you can travel everywhere, go to a place to see the scenery of a place, eat the food of a place, live a life in a place, and then leave to go to the next stop.

And Tianren City happened to be the next stop in his plan.

His plan is to find a place to live in Tianren City after retiring his marriage, and see how this bustling city in the North is like.

But it is said that everything in Tianren City is expensive, and his little savings is probably not enough.

So in general, Ji Que is short of money.

Ji Que has summed up that during the period when his comprehension first started to accumulate, he just stepped on shit frequently, and this stage can be called the "shit stepping stage".

And after the "shit stepping stage", he would step on shit while throwing money inexplicably. The money he carried on his body would drop from time to time, and the money hidden at home would also be stolen.

He once buried ten taels of silver more than one meter below the blue bricks of the house, but the silver was still lost, because at some point there was a huge mouse hole next to it.

Others are picking up money to go whoring and listening to music for nothing, but he is inexplicably throwing away money.

This made Ji Que very depressed.

Fortunately, at this stage, pickpockets and thieves will fall into his hands from time to time, and he can gain a little from them in order to make ends meet.

Ji Que called this stage "the stage of keeping money with all one's heart", because as long as he works hard to squeeze out thieves and pickpockets, his assets will always tend to be in a state of balance.

After this stage, dangerous incidents will continue to appear, such as robbery, murder, killing people with horses, encountering tigers on outings, etc., are all in this stage.

At this time, Ji Que is in danger of life, but he is also the most profitable.

Those who robbed him and killed him were probably bandits, and they already had money on them, and with the bounty from the yamen, he also made some money.

At this stage, Ji Que called it "the stage of taking life to make money".

Ji Que is now at this stage.

He summed it up. Today, he first stepped on dog shit four times in a row. After paying attention to his feet, he was hit by bird shit twice, and he narrowly avoided flying objects such as bamboo poles and bricks falling from above three times. shit met someone beat him sap again

Compared with the previous few days, the frequency of this bad luck was significantly higher.

No way, this is the price of accumulating savvy and earning money.

Ji Que felt that he could still bear it. After all, the more troubles he had, the better. Only then could he live comfortably in Tianren City.

After that, he started a day of exercise.

He first did 100 push-ups on his stomach, then 100 sit-ups, and 100 squats.

On the surface, Ji Que is a scholar who looks gentle, but in fact, his body is full of strong muscles.

This is one of the reasons why he can survive the bad luck for so long.

Of course, bad luck is not endless. Judging from Ji Que's experience, he has suffered so many bad luck during the day, and he will usually be at peace at night.

At this time, a gust of dark wind blew open the carved windows with a bang.

The candlelight on the table swayed left and right, reflecting the shadows of the trees on the ground like hideous ghosts.

Ji Que hurried over to close the window, but suddenly froze there.

A small sound came from the water tank outside the house, like a big fish swimming in it.

But he never raised fish.

Ji Que, who was in the midst of bad luck, naturally wouldn't think that it was the snail girl who repayed her kindness.

"No way, so unlucky?"

Ji Que put scissors, hammers, bricks, red strings and other tools on the table back to their places in a calm manner, and quietly leaned over with the hammer in hand.
