So, Moneylender suggested a way to decide the matter. He suggested that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an empty money bag and then girl have to pick one pebble from the bag.

Condition set was  If she picked black pebble the she would become moneylenders wife and farmers debt would be forgiven and If she pick white pebble then she doesn’t need to marry moneylender and her fathers debt would still be forgiven. She wasn’t left with option to refuse to pick a pebble as if she does so, then her father would be thrown into jail.
