Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte

Here, Song Yunrong took the newly acquired toy and told Song Jinshu everything she had seen in detail.

"The county school is sending cakes? Can you see clearly whether it is for the teacher or the students?"

The teachers of the county school were recruited by Song Jinshu himself. The youngest one was under 30 years old, which was the best age for men.

But most people of this age marry early, and she was worried that Song Yunqing would be deceived by a man.

Song Yunrong scratched her head and thought carefully, then said, "I remember now. The little brother who was talking to Third Sister was wearing a green and white robe."

Qingjin is equivalent to the school uniform, and it seems that he is a student of the county school.

As the only legal guardian of his younger sister, Song Jinshu believes that he has an obligation to find out the family information of his third sister's sweetheart.

Song Jinshu found a day when Hao Qiulan was not busy to visit him.

Hao Qiulan was a little surprised to see her coming, and treated her well. The two chatted about family matters for a while, and finally got to the point.

"To be honest, I came here because I want to find out something from you."

"Oh? Please speak, Lord Song." Hao Qiulan was not surprised.

Song Jinshu briefly explained Song Yunqing's situation, then chuckled and said, "If the two children are truly interested, I'm willing to help them. However, for a woman, marriage is like a second life, and the man must understand everything clearly."

Hao Qiulan nodded in understanding and searched the information provided by Song Jinshu among the students.

Suddenly he paused and said softly, "The person you described is very similar to a student in our county school. He is quite famous among the students."

Song Jinshu raised an eyebrow and listened attentively. Hao Qiulan told him the truth about the student: "The student's name is Cheng Ziqian, he is 17 years old this year, and his hometown is not Jingyang County. Several generations ago, they were all from Shun'an Prefecture, and he previously studied at Songjun Academy."

Hao Qiulan sighed and continued, "It's just because his stepmother is so arrogant and scoundrel, even..."

After hesitating for a moment, she frowned and glanced at Song Jinshu carefully.

"To be honest, Cheng Ziqian was expelled from Songjun Academy because of his bad reputation after he pushed his stepmother into the water."

Afraid that Song Jinshu would misunderstand Cheng Ziqian, he hurriedly explained, "When I first heard about him, I didn't want to take him in. But after getting to know him, I realized that he is kind, sincere, and upright."

"I've also investigated those bad reputations. They were all deliberately fabricated by his evil mother. Last year, Cheng Ziqian passed the provincial examination and became a Juren. His stepmother took him to the government office, accusing him of harming her. The incident became quite a big deal, and local officials restricted his path to the imperial examination."

"Cheng Ziqian was also kicked out by the Cheng family. He listened to his friend and learned that our county school was recruiting students, so he borrowed money from his friend to come to our county town."

"As you said, he is unable to continue to take the imperial examinations, so why does he still come to the county school to study?" Song Jinshu asked curiously.

Cheng Ziqian's stepmother clearly would not let him go. How could she let him continue taking the imperial examinations and target her in the future?

Hao Qiulan felt guilty and said awkwardly, "I had selfish motives in mind. Actually, he originally planned to come to the county school to be a teacher, but the teachers haven't been recruited yet. He has nowhere to go and even basic food and clothing is hard to come by."

"He couldn't go back to the capital. I felt sorry for him and valued his talent, so I allowed him to enter the county school first. I'll talk about other things later when he recruits a teacher."

Song Jinshu understood why Hao Qiulan felt so guilty. In order to encourage students to take the county school entrance exam, she had already stated that the top three students would be exempted from tuition, book fees and living expenses for one year.

Cheng Ziqian should be among the top three. It can be said that they are supporting a person who is destined to fail the imperial examination for free.

Seeing Song Jinshu remained silent, Hao Qiulan felt a little uneasy. She had indeed taken advantage of this situation.

"Please, sir, reduce the punishment. I am willing to pay for Cheng Ziqian's tuition in the county school."

This is an admission of fault and also a way to make amends.

Looking at Hao Qiulan, who sincerely admitted his mistake but showed no regret, Song Jinshu's eyes moved slightly, and he said lightly: "Can I go and take a peek at Cheng Ziqian?"

Hao Qiulan was stunned. She thought she would be punished and that Cheng Ziqian would be kicked out, but she didn't expect Song Jinshu to be so calm and only asked to see him.

No matter how turbulent his heart was, Hao Qiulan still led Song Jinshu to the kitchen.

Now the students have finished their classes. Some have gone home, some have returned to the dormitory to study, and only a few are working part-time to earn money for their studies.

At this time, Cheng Ziqian had changed into a servant's clothes and was cleaning the kitchen skillfully.

At first glance, Song Jinshu thought Cheng Ziqian was very thin, tall, and had fair skin, a typical pretty-faced scholar.

Even though he was doing the hardest work, he did not look inferior when faced with the teasing of the cook and other servants, but instead responded in a gentle voice.

"Let's go!" Song Jinshu took a last look at Cheng Ziqian and turned to leave.

Until Song Jinshu left the county school, Hao Qiulan did not receive any word of punishment from her, so she knew that Song Jinshu tacitly agreed to Cheng Ziqian's affairs.

On the way home, Song Jinshu took a detour to Song Yunqing's pastry shop.

There were not many people in the shop at this time. Song Yunqing was standing in front of the counter, calculating the bills with an abacus. His generous and dignified temperament was very attractive.

Looking back at Cheng Ziqian's image, the two of them look quite compatible.

Song Jinshu muttered something silently, turned around and went back to observe Cheng Ziqian again.

Song Jinshu had something hidden in his mind and was very concerned about Song Yunqing's every move. Today, when he saw that she had made new pastries, he went out with a look of anticipation on his face.

I didn't notice there was a tail behind me...

Arriving at a bookstore, Song Yunqing didn't leave. She carefully adjusted her sleeves and, seeing that nothing was wrong with her, crouched down and secretly observed the door of the bookstore.

After waiting for a while, a familiar thin figure came out of the bookstore. Song Yunqing hurriedly retracted his body, looked around nervously, then lowered his head and pretended to walk forward.

Song Jinshu hurriedly caught up and stood where Song Yunqing had just stood.

Not to mention the perfect location, the scene in front is clearly visible.

After handing in the copied script, Cheng Ziqian received two new ones, intending to go back and copy more to earn some money to pay off his friend's debt.

As soon as he went out, he ran into the girl he liked. He was happy at first, but then felt inferior.

Seeing the beauty about to walk away, Cheng Ziqian couldn't help but call out: "Miss Song!"

Song Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief. This idiot finally called her!

"Mr. Cheng, why are you here?"

Upon hearing this, Song Jinshu covered her eyes and took a peek, with an aunt's smile on her face, and started shipping the couple on the spot.

The two people in front had already started talking. Cheng Ziqian glanced at Song Yunqing gently and unobtrusively, and a blush appeared on his fair cheeks.

He took the silver he had just received and gave it to her: "Miss Song, the cakes you made today smell very sweet. I want to buy two pieces to try."

As for the debt I owe to my friend, I will pay him back after he finishes copying the new book he received!
