Women dressed as men: powerful officials

After leaving the teahouse, Xu Yuan did not go anywhere else, but went directly to wait for Zhang Yue.

In the previous life, that war was at the end of the year.

This time, the man named "Shen Renyao" burned more than a dozen tents of Geshu's tribe. I'm afraid that this war will come even faster.

Just like Shen Yichuan said, she had to prepare now, either open an umbrella or put on more clothes, otherwise it would be too late later.

When Zhang Yue came out, he saw Xu Yuan waiting at the entrance of the martial arts gym.

Fearing that Xuyuan would have to wait too long, Zhang Yue ran over and asked, "Aren't we meeting at the old place? Why did you come here first?"

After Zhang Yue finished speaking, he took the cloth bag from Xu Yuan and hung it on himself.

"The school ended early today, so I came here early."

After Xu Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Yue and asked, "Brother, what do you think about our family moving to Sishui County?"

"Moving to Sishui County?"

Zhang Yue was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, move to Sishui County."

Cheng's hometown is not in Sishui County, but close to the desert.

If a war breaks out, Chengjia Township will be the first to suffer.

Xu Yuan had thought about moving a long time ago, but at that time the war was still far away, so she was not in a hurry. But now the situation is different, and she has to make plans early.

She doesn't have the money to buy a yard in Sishui County.

It should be said that even the whole family cannot do it.

Now they live in Chengjia Township. Zhang Yue's parents are farmers. After deducting taxes and their own food, there is basically nothing left from the annual harvest.

Xu Wenxian is a teacher, and her monthly income is only enough to pay for her and Zhang Yue’s school tuition.

At this time, we can only find other ways out.

Xu Yuan didn't know what other ways out there were, but this matter was indeed imminent.

Seeing Xu Yuan's serious look, and not joking, Zhang Yue didn't have the heart to pour cold water on Xu Yuan in front of him. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Xu Yuan, this kind of moving matter is not something that can be decided by just you and me. You and I are still children, why should we consider so much?"

"Brother, we are not children anymore. My father is old, and my uncle and aunt have worked hard in the fields for so many years. They didn't make any money, but instead got sick. We can't be children all our lives. We have to take on the responsibilities that we should bear."

"But moving is a big deal. We live in Sishui County, so what should we do with our land? Where can we live in Sishui County? We don't have that much money."

Zhang Yue finished speaking, and finally said: "So Xuyuan, you should stop thinking about this matter. Just say it in front of me, and don't tell me when you go back."

The idea of ​​making a wish was too naive. Zhang Yue didn't know where the wish came from or what stimulated him to have so many bizarre ideas.

However, he knew that the idea of ​​making a wish would definitely not be supported.

Because my family doesn’t have the financial resources to do so.

After hearing Zhang Yue’s words, Xu Yuan also fell silent.

Without money, it is really difficult to move forward.

Seeing that Xu Yuan didn't say anything and didn't mention the previous incident, Zhang Yue comforted him, "It's okay. When I have money in the future, I will buy you a house in Shui County or even in Beijing. But I don't have the money to do so now, so wait a while."

After Zhang Yue finished speaking, he took Xu Yuan's shoulder and said, "Okay, let's go home."

—

The next day, Xuyuan got up early and counted the money.

After losing that day, Zhang Yue went home and gave all the money he had saved to Xu Yuan.

After making a wish, he sat on the bed and counted the money carefully.

She had saved two taels of silver herself, and with Zhang Yue's, it was three taels.

There was also the five taels of silver that he had previously taken from "Shen Renyao", minus the one tael of silver used to make the soft sword, leaving six taels of silver.

Six taels.

Not to mention buying a place to live, even renting one for a few months would be a struggle.

Wait a moment......

Xu Yuan remembered something and reacted almost instantly.

Yes, she couldn't afford to buy a yard, but she could rent one.

This war won't last long. They will come back after it's over.

Or maybe, if she could find the money at that time, she could just buy the yard.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan's previous fatigue was swept away, and his eyes became bright.

After washing up, Xu Yuan and Zhang Yue took a donkey cart from their fellow villager to Sishui County as usual, and the two parted at the door.

Zhang Yue had already walked far away, but he remembered something and turned back to say, "Xuyuan, our family doesn't have that much money to buy a yard, so don't think about what you told me before. Let's work hard, and there will still be opportunities in the future."

Fearing that Zhang Yue would become suspicious, Xu Yuan replied, "I know, brother, just go to the martial arts gym and see you in the afternoon."

"Yeah." Zhang Yue nodded.

After separating from Zhang Yue, Xu Yuan still did not go to the private school, but wandered around Sishui County, looking for a suitable house.

The location must be right, the price must be right, and it must be rented, not sold.

After searching for a while, he didn't see anything suitable, so he made a wish and didn't stay long, and went back to the private school.

Shen Yichuan was still there, but this time he didn't talk about any anecdotes in the capital, but gave a real lecture.

Xu Yuan listened carefully, but for some reason, she always felt that someone was staring at her. However, every time she looked back as if unintentionally, she saw nothing.

After school, the teacher did not want to keep anyone, and Shen Yichuan did not want to keep anyone, so Xu Yuan immediately packed up his cloth bag and left in a hurry.

Sishui County is not big, but it also has specific divisions.

For example, the downtown area is in one place, while other shops such as restaurants and tea houses are in another place.

Xu Yuan went to the east in the morning and didn't see any houses for rent, so she planned to go to the west in the afternoon. If there were still no houses available, she would go somewhere else tomorrow.

Walking out of the street, Xu Yuan couldn't help but look back.

It was still early and the streets were full of people.

But for some reason, Xuyuan always felt that someone was following him, and it must not be his illusion.

But every time she looked back, she didn't find anything unusual.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan deliberately quickened his pace and walked in the alleys with fewer people.

There are not many alleys in Sishui County, and most of them are connected end to end. After Xu Yuan entered the alley, he placed his hand on the soft sword to prevent any accidents.

When the alley came to an end and there was only one way to retreat, Xu Yuan turned around and saw that there was still no one behind him. He simply said, "Come out, you have been following me all the way, and I am in a hurry to go home for dinner."

Xu Yuan's tone was calm, without any fear in it.

As soon as she finished speaking, footsteps were heard. Xu Yuan looked up and saw who it was. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Cheng Jie, you actually have the guts to show up. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
