Women dressed as men: powerful officials
Chapter 101 County Magistrate
At night, Xu Yuan had just lit the lamp when Zhang Qingyu pushed the door open.
She glanced at Cheng Zhicheng, and then said, "Zhicheng, please go out for a moment. I have something to say to Yuan'er."
Cheng Zhicheng didn't know what the two people were discussing, so he quickly got up and left.
After Zhang Qingyu and the others left, she turned back and locked the door. She looked at Xu Yuan and said, "Where are you injured? Mother will let you take a look."
Zhang Qingyu understood Xu Yuan's personality.
What mother doesn't understand her child?
If the injury is not serious, probably no one would even mention it.
Now that I think about it, it probably won't get better in a short time.
Moreover, he couldn't even hold the chopsticks tightly when making a wish.
While eating, Zhang Qingyu saw Xu Yuan's look and his heart twitched with pain.
Girls from other families are pampered at home, unable to carry anything. It is nothing like Xuyuan, who has to consider her status when she is injured and can only bear it.
Whenever he thought of this, Zhang Qingyu felt that his previous decision was wrong.
She shouldn't have let Xu Yuan pretend to be a man. It was she who harmed Xu Yuan.
It was Zhang Qingyu. She made the wish without any shyness and gently took off the clothes on her shoulders.
The wound on my shoulder does need a dressing change so that it can heal faster.
Even if Zhang Qingyu didn't come on his own initiative tonight, Xu Yuan would still go find Zhang Qingyu.
If she did it herself, she was afraid that the wound would split open again.
The whole shoulder was wrapped in gauze. Zhang Qingyu's eyes turned red. She reached for the scissors with trembling hands and cried, "Yuan'er, why didn't you tell mother?"
"If I said the injury was serious and on my right shoulder, I'm afraid my father would be worried."
Xu Yuan looked at the tears in Zhang Qingyu's eyes and couldn't help but stretched out his left hand to pat Zhang Qingyu's shoulder and said, "Mom, I'm not in pain, don't be sad."
Compared to learning about the tragic death of a family member, this pain is nothing.
The pain in the body cannot compare to the pain in the heart.
Xu Yuan smiled and said, "I am very happy to see that our whole family is here. Mom, I am really fine."
"How can such a deep wound not hurt?"
As Zhang Qingyu spoke, he carefully cut off the gauze, applied the medicine, and then went to get a clean cloth to wrap the wish.
Only after everything was done did Xu Yuan put on his clothes.
She has a small face, and under the candlelight, her childish look is no longer there, but rather has a bit of feminine gentleness.
Zhang Qingyu couldn't bear to watch, and could only say uncomfortably: "It's mother who is sorry for you."
"Mom, what are you talking about? I have never felt that you have let me down. You gave birth to me and raised me. I am already very grateful to you."
Xu Yuan hugged Zhang Qingyu gently and said, "I think it's good now, really good."
Zhang Qingyu couldn't help choking up, and then smiled and said, "Okay, mother is out, you should go to bed early."
"Okay." Xuyuan nodded with a smile.
After Zhang Qingyu left, she opened the window a little, and when the bloody smell in the room dissipated, she went out and called Cheng Zhicheng in.
At night, the snow kept falling.
Xu Yuan finally had a good sleep.
The next morning, Xu Yuan had just woken up when he heard noisy noises outside.
Some people were beating drums and gongs, and others were constantly saying words of congratulations.
Xu Yuan sat up, and Cheng Zhicheng also got up. Seeing Xu Yuan awake, Cheng Zhicheng asked, "Xu Yuan, do you know what happened?"
Xuyuan shook his head and said, "Go out and take a look."
Just as Xu Yuan was about to take the clothes, Wen Shufang was one step faster, pushed the door open and said, "Yuan'er, Zhicheng, come out quickly. Yue'er won the battle! He is now in the general's mansion and will be back soon!"
"Cousin is coming back?"
Xu Yuan regained consciousness, put on her clothes hastily, and said, "I'll go take a look."
Beiyao just said he would withdraw his troops yesterday. No matter what, he will definitely not have time to spare today.
Zhang Yue should be very busy, why would he come home so soon?
Could it be that there are too many things piled up in the county government office...
As Xu Yuan was thinking about it, someone at the door shouted, "General Xie is here!"
Xu Wenxian and Zhang Qingyi were already at the door, Xu Wenxian was in front and Zhang Qingyi was standing at the back.
Seeing Xu Yuan coming out, Wen Shufang said, "Yuan'er, your aunt is a woman, it's not appropriate for her to go. Go check on your brother to see if he's injured anywhere."
Xuyuan nodded in agreement and followed him over.
She originally wanted to stand behind Zhang Qingyi and wait for the others to finish talking before going to find Zhang Yue. Unexpectedly, as soon as she came out, Xie Xiaocheng called him directly, "Mr. Xu!"
Xu Yuan was stunned, not knowing why Xie Xiaocheng called her, but she still said, "Thank you, General."
Because of Xie Xiaocheng's words, Xu Wenxian and Zhang Qingyi also looked at Xu Yuan.
Wen Shufang and Zhang Qingyu were inside the room, also muttering, "How come General Xie knows Yuan'er? Could it be that Yuan'er has offended him?"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh." Zhang Qingyu quickly pressed Wen Shufang down: "Sister-in-law, you can't say that."
"That's right." Wen Shufang finished speaking and couldn't help sighing, "I don't know how Yue'er is doing. My heart is beating so fast that I can't stop."
Inside the yard, Xu Yuan stood there, glancing lightly behind Xie Xiaocheng.
There is no Zhang Yue.
Noticing Xu Yuan's gaze, Xie Xiaocheng said, "Zhang Yue and Master Shen are now handling affairs in the county government office. After they are handled, Zhang Yue can go home when he has time. Yesterday, the troops withdrew and there were many affairs in the barracks. He couldn't spare any time. But County Magistrate Wei was arrested, and Sishui County cannot be without the county magistrate. Therefore, this general came here today for the county magistrate."
At this point, Xie Xiaocheng looked at Xu Wenxian and said politely, "I heard that Mr. Xu is a teacher, knowledgeable and talented. I wonder if you are willing to serve as the county magistrate of Sishui County?"
Xu Yuan’s heart suddenly paused.
Xie Xiaocheng came too quickly, and she hadn't told Xu Wenxian about this yet.
If you are rejected...
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan looked at Xu Wenxian. Before she could speak, Xu Wenxian said, "General Xie, I shouldn't have refused your invitation. But I am too old to take on this important task. Please find someone else, General Xie..."
"Dad, since you shouldn't refuse, then don't refuse." Xu Yuan hurriedly interrupted Xu Wenxian.
"Make a wish." Xu Wenxian frowned, and said with some dignity, "How can you interrupt the elders when they are talking?"
Xie Xiaocheng looked at the two people in front of him silently, and took a step back.
The position of county magistrate is not as important as he said.
It was just that Bei Yao asked him to do this, so he came here without stopping.
Although the county magistrate's official position is not high, he is still an official after all, and is a popular figure in Sishui County.
Xu Wenxian, on the other hand, didn't want to accept it.
It’s better that he doesn’t want to accept it, otherwise the Third Prince will really send a waste in and he will have to clean up the mess.
Thinking of this, Xie Xiaocheng looked at his nose and his heart, and did not continue to persuade him.
"Dad, General Xie only lets you be the county magistrate temporarily, not forever. Besides, there will be a new county magistrate coming. Can't you just help for a while?"
Xuyuan frowned.
She knew that Xu Wenxian would refuse, probably because he was planning to go to Beijing in the future to overturn the Xu family's verdict.
Therefore, she had to use something to keep Xu Wenxian in Sishui County.
This official position is just right.
Not only that, her family now has a county magistrate and a deputy general, so others dare not look down on her father anymore.
She could also go to Beijing with peace of mind.
