Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 401 The woman's example changed her mind

"Go and bring all the relevant documents about this family." Lord Zhang ordered.

The chief clerk walked out of the main hall. Although the sun was shining brightly on the earth, he suddenly felt a chill.

Yes, he just made a very confident argument, but he also felt that there was something strange about it.

They traveled thousands of miles to settle down in Datian Village in the remote south, and they had the same name and surname.

What is this doing?

He did not dare to miss even a single page of the family's registration. He checked it several times and then hurried to the main hall.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and handed it to Master Zhang: "Master, everything is here."

Lord Zhang flipped through the pages, remarking, "...Qiao Yunhu, from the twelfth to the twenty-fourth year of the Jiacheng reign, served as Junior Yin of Jingzhao... He had two daughters and one son... The second daughter was raised in a temple and returned home at the age of thirteen, so no one knows her appearance or name... Tired of officialdom, she resigned and retired to the countryside, never to concern herself with worldly affairs again..."

The chief clerk said, "When I saw the title, my heart skipped a beat. Although the position is not high, the power is not small. And yet he is willing to resign."

"I couldn't help but ask more questions, and Master Qiao said that there were people in the family who were carrying out important tasks in the capital, and compared to them, he was nothing. Now that he was old, he wanted to relax a little, so he took his wife and daughter to find a secluded place."

Qiao Lianer thought that people usually raised their children in temples because it was calculated that their children had a bad fate, and they placed them in the temple to avoid disaster.

This is not that uncommon, but except for relatives and friends, everyone will keep it a secret to avoid ruining one's fate. Even if the disaster has been avoided, one still has to be careful. However, the Qiao family in the east of the village brought this matter up, as if they were doing it on purpose for someone to see.

Did they know someone would investigate?

Moreover, the further information revealed by Mr. Qiao seemed to prove that someone was protecting him.

He resigned from office in the 24th year of Jiacheng, which happened to be this year.

This is worth pondering.

No one knew Miss Qiao's appearance or name. She was fostered in a temple since she was young.

This proves the mystery of her identity. Perhaps her name can be anything, and even her appearance can be anything.

Qiao Jianer further doubted whether she even had this daughter.

The more she thought about it, the more bizarre it became. She felt her hairs on her body stretch slightly and a cold sweat broke out.

"That's the main points." Lord Zhang said as he handed the registration book to the chief clerk, nodded, and motioned him to show it to Qiao Jianer.

Qiao Lian'er took a look and saw that Lord Zhang had already read what was supposed to be read.

"This matter is of great importance, but you did not make any specific report in advance and let me take charge. This is your dereliction of duty. If there is no trouble, it would be fine. If there is trouble, you will have to bear the consequences." Lord Zhang said to the chief clerk with a stern face.

The chief clerk was sweating profusely. At that time, he had also considered whether he should let Master Zhang handle the matter for the people coming from the capital, but the Qiao family urged him to hurry up and even stuffed a silver ingot into his hand.

He thought it was just a simple retreat from the world, but he never expected that it would become abnormal upon closer inspection.

He immediately raised his hand and slapped him hard in the face.

"It's all my fault. I was confused. I hope everything is fine. Otherwise, I will be blamed."

"It's useless to say this now. I just hope this family can be more peaceful. Don't reveal a single word about what happened today. Go down."

The chief clerk responded while taking the document and leaving.

"Miss Qiao, I will keep an eye on this matter, but this is all I can do for now," Lord Zhang said apologetically.

There was one thing he didn't tell Qiao Jianer, which was that the Pei family was in some trouble right now. He had just received a letter asking him to take better care of Miss Qiao.

But this letter was not sent from the old place, but from a different address. It must have been targeted by someone, so this was done to avoid being intercepted.

Fortunately, it is indeed the handwriting of Master Pei, and it cannot be faked.

I'm afraid this letter took a lot of effort to get here.

When a prominent family like the Pei family admits they have trouble, the trouble is already quite big.

Lord Zhang didn't want to hide it, but this girl was not in a peaceful situation right now, and he didn't want to add any extra pressure to her.

Qiao Jianer said goodbye and left the county government.

There was no expression on her face, and the more this situation became, the calmer she had to be.

She won't move unless people move, but she will find a way to get more information.

"Girl, is your horse still there?"

Just as she walked out of the county government office, she heard a laughing voice. She turned around and recognized it was Zhang Ci'er.

Compared to the last time I saw her, the arrogant and domineering temperament between Zhang Ci'er's eyebrows had completely disappeared, and her already beautiful face looked much more peaceful and lively. The sunlight shining on her face was warm, as if covered with a layer of soft light.

Zhang Ci'er added, "Don't let anyone worry about you again."

Qiao Jianer envied her carefree state of mind and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

"Why, Miss Zhang, you still want my horse?" She replied jokingly.

Seeing that she didn't care, Zhang Ci'er raised his eyebrows and walked up to her easily: "I owe you an apology. I'm sorry for what happened last time."

She had apologized to everyone she had wronged, and this girl was the only one left.

"It's just a trivial matter, I've forgotten it long ago. I heard that Miss Zhang and Master Zhang are now reconciled, so I want to offer my best wishes. In fact, in life, the most important thing is the word affection, and if you have it, you must keep it."

Zhang Ci'er said, "I understand. Fortunately, I understood it not too late. Daddy hasn't grown old yet, and I'm still a teenager."

She observed Qiao Jian'er carefully and felt that the aura around her was a bit heavy. Although she remained calm, she felt that she would not lie.

"Why, did something happen to you? Can my father help you?"

"I've already met Mr. Zhang." Qiao Jian'er didn't reveal too much. "Miss Zhang, I have something else to do. Goodbye."

"Then, can I come and play with you?" There seemed to be a hint of yearning in Zhang Ci'er's tone.

Qiao Jianer nodded with a smile.

Zhang Ci'er watched her leave with envy and admiration in his eyes.

She didn't know that it was Qiao Lianer's credit that she was able to reconcile with her father.

It was just her father's praise that this girl had become a resident military advisor at such a young age, and that she had a bright future, which was amazing.

This was the first time she had seen a girl become a resident military advisor, and she couldn't believe it at first.

She originally thought that girls could learn needlework and find a good husband when they grow up, and that would be their life.

But Qiao Lian'er gave her a different kind of motivation. She now reads books carefully every day to broaden her knowledge and horizons.

She also wants to become a great talent.

Qiao Jian'er crossed the street and saw a carriage coming from the opposite direction. It was low-key and unobtrusive, but it exuded a sense of nobility. She felt that the carriage looked familiar. Isn't this the Qiao family at the east end of the village?

The curtain of the carriage was opened and a head popped out.

Qiao Lian'er smiled as if she was meeting a fellow villager, and waved to her playfully and cheerfully.
