Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Xu Yuan didn't take Shen Yichuan's words to heart at all.

She naturally knew that Cheng Tiankun would cause trouble for her as soon as Song Xiujing left.

But even without Song Xiujing, Cheng Jie would still cause trouble for her.

When the trouble gets worse, Cheng Tiankun will also intervene.

Anyway, the final conclusion is the same, as for the result.

Xu Yuan had already figured it out.

Cheng Tiankun couldn't beat her.

Now, there is no need for her to waste her energy on such a person.

After leaving the private school, Xu Yuan went to Cheng's house.

The door of the Cheng Mansion was closed and no one was seen coming in or out. Xu Yuan waited for a long time until it was getting dark, then he left quietly.

On the donkey cart, Zhang Yue was still in high spirits.

Xu Yuan didn't say anything, thinking about what Song Xiujing might have done.

Seeing Xu Yuan's expression, Zhang Yue asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Xu Yuan came back to his senses.

Seeing Xu Yuan's absent-mindedness, Zhang Yue said, "Every time you say you have nothing to do, you have something to do. Xu Yuan, when did we brothers have secrets?"

Zhang Yue could feel that making a wish had changed a lot.

But making wishes is still the same as before. If there is any change, it is probably that making wishes nowadays is like a pool of stagnant water.

He has no emotions and no joy.

In the past, the most common phrase used when making a wish was “I can’t do it”, but now the most common phrase used when making a wish is “It’s OK, I’m here for you”.

His relationship with the Wishing Brothers seemed to be reversed.

Xuyuan is more like an older brother than him.

"It's nothing." Xu Yuan smiled and said casually, "It's nothing."

"Ok."

Zhang Yue breathed a sigh of relief and stopped talking.

The two of them walked along the way in silence.

After returning home, Xu Yuan heard that Xu Wenxian had booked the yard.

Zhang Qingyu and Wen Shufang were already packing up.

Only Zhang Qingyi was sitting on the doorstep, looking at the desert in front of him and sighing occasionally.

Zhang Yue gave Xu Yuan a wink, Xu Yuan nodded, and went in to find Xu Wenxian.

The house in Chengjia Township was passed down from the Zhang family’s ancestors.

Three more rooms were added at the back. The place is not big, but it is warm and clean.

Xu Yuan walked past the corridor and saw that Xu Wenxian had not closed the door, so he went straight in.

Probably because they were packing up to move, the house was exceptionally messy, with books and used papers scattered all over the floor.

Hearing the door open, Xu Wenxian looked back, then continued to pack his things and asked Xu Yuan, "Is school over?"

"Ah."

Xuyuan nodded and walked over, looking at the books scattered on the ground.

She asked, "Father, are you going to take these books with you too?"

"No." Xu Wenxian shook his head. "They are all the books I memorized before. They are not very useful."

The first time Xu Wenxian was driven out of the capital like a stray dog, he broke his leg.

He couldn't walk or do anything else, let alone take revenge.

At that time he was withdrawn, didn't want to talk, and even felt annoyed when he saw everyone.

Later, Zhang Qingyu told him that if he really felt bored, he should memorize all the books he had read before.

There is only one private school in Sishui County, and there are few teachers.

Maybe it will be helpful to other students.

In this way, he spent day after day by memorizing.

Similarly, while studying, he also found a job for himself.

Now, the only purpose of these books placed here is to remind him not to forget the past period of time.

"Then I'll pack it up and see if I can give it to someone."

Xu Wenxian didn't say anything and continued to pack his things.

Xu Yuan picked up a few pieces of paper and looked up to see Xu Wenxian wiping something. She stood up and saw that it was a jade pendant. She inexplicably remembered what Shen Renyao had said to her that day.

[The youngest son of the Xu family and the current Concubine Xing were once engaged, and the two of them had a token. I heard that the token was lost in Shuozhou. The purpose of my trip is to find the token and then destroy it.]

[The youngest son of the Xu family who was engaged was named Xu Ze, and Concubine Xing was my aunt.]

Almost involuntarily, Xu Yuan walked over and asked, "Father, whose jade pendant is this? Why have I never seen you wear it before?"

The jade pendant was white with a hint of green. Even if one did not know much about jade, one would know that it was a top-quality jade pendant.

Hearing Xu's wish, Xu Wenxian paused while wiping the jade pendant, and then said, "An old friend gave it to me, and I keep it just to keep a little memory in my heart."

"Can I see it?" Xu Yuan stared at the jade pendant.

Xu Wenxian did not answer, but directly handed the jade pendant to Xu Yuan, and then continued to pack up the books.

Xuyuan lifted up the jade pendant and looked at it carefully under the candlelight.

The jade pendant is made of top-quality Hetian jade.

The carving on it is a bird spreading its wings as if about to fly.

"Xuyuan, let me tell you, the Shen family's jade pendant is unique. My father's generation was named Yi, so the jade pendant in everyone's hand is a bird with spread wings. My generation was named Ren, so there is a word Ren carved in the jade pendant."

"This jade pendant is only for legitimate sons and daughters. Of course, the Shen family does not have any illegitimate sons and daughters. And my jade pendant, Shen Yichuan, is the most special in the entire Shen family. There is a winding river in the middle of my jade pendant, which means a hundred rivers."

past life.

Shen Yichuan also showed off the Shen family's jade pendant to her.

Xu Yuan never thought that he would see this jade pendant again on Xu Wenxian.

So, Shen Renyao did not lie to her.

Her father and Shen Yifeng, the third daughter of the Shen family, not only had an engagement, but also exchanged tokens of love. Until now, Xu Wenxian still keeps that jade pendant on her.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan even felt that the jade pendant in his hand was getting hot.

She wanted to ask Xu Wenxian why he still kept the jade pendant.

But she felt that she didn't seem to be qualified.

If nothing had happened to the Xu family, Xu Wenxian would have married into the Shen family.

At that time, her mother, Zhang Qingyu, was not there.

There will be no her either.

Xu Wenxian didn't hear Xu Yuan talking, so he turned around and saw Xu Yuan holding the jade pendant in a daze.

He said, "Yuan'er, if you like it, you can take it, but you need to keep this jade pendant well and don't pawn it casually."

Hearing Xu Wenxian's words, Xu Yuan raised his head, forced a smile and said, "When our family was in such a difficult situation, my father didn't even pawn this jade pendant, but he always carried it with him to clean it. I guess this jade pendant must be very important to my father. Precious things should be kept well by oneself."

After Xu Yuan finished speaking, he placed the jade pendant on the table and deliberately changed the subject: "Father, my uncle is sitting alone in front of the door and not talking. He must be feeling a little uncomfortable because of the move. You can go and see him. My brother and I can't say anything."

It is not her turn to interfere in adults' affairs now.

"I'll go check it out later."

Xu Wenxian put the jade pendant away and said, "This jade pendant is indeed very important to me, but it is not precious. The most precious and the one that matters to me the most is you, and it will only be you."

Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes instantly turned red, "Really?"
