Chapter 677 Magistrate Xu's Little Assistant 33
However, she underestimated Zuo San's efficiency.
That evening, Song Jinhuan was summoned to the main hall.
Xu Qingyuan only signaled Zuo San to report when he saw her appear.
"Xiao Yun, whose real name is Yunxia, is from the northern part of Huzhou. As a child, she moved around with her mother and made a living by deceiving people."
Later, her mother became the confidante of Prefect Li, and after she came of age, Prefect Li sent her to his maternal home under the pretext of teaching her manners.
In just a few words, what is there that you don't understand?
This was the honey trap that Prefect Lu used on her.
Song Jinhuan was very unhappy; so much of her time had been wasted last night.
"Why don't you, Master Jiang, turn the tables on me?"
"I find that Yun is quite pretty; she's good enough to be Master Jiang's head maid."
Xu Qingyuan couldn't help but tease.
Song Jinhuan glanced at him, her mood low, and said, "My lord, please don't make such a joke about a mediocre book."
Xu Qingyuan's mood wasn't exactly good, but it wasn't bad either.
She felt that only he would not betray the other person's feelings.
Feeling inexplicably smug.
It would be even better if all those who had received Jiang's kindness disappointed him.
In the end, he was the only one who truly deserved Jiang Shiye's care and attention.
Xu Qingyuan knew when to stop. "Alright, what does Master Jiang intend to do with the Yun family?"
“Let her register her household in Anping County. That way, she can’t leave Anping County unless the government approves it.”
"At that time, all her marriages will be arranged by me."
"Yongshu will send two more constables to visit and inquire about our situation from time to time."
"Until she voluntarily requests to leave Anping County."
As Song Jinhuan spoke, he became more and more enthusiastic, and his anger gradually dissipated.
Only two words remain: Serves them right.
The next day, Yunxia met the exceptionally enthusiastic Master Jiang.
"Xiaoyun, do you like Anping County?"
Xiaoyun glanced at her shyly, lowered her head, and nodded.
Song Jinhuan chuckled and pulled a piece of paper from his sleeve. “Since you have nowhere to go, settle down in Anping County. I’ve allocated you a farmhouse and a piece of fertile land. You can settle down here in peace.”
"From now on, consider Anping County as your home."
“You have no relatives, I will send people to visit you more often.”
"If you'd like, just sign it here, and I'll give you your ID card tomorrow."
If Yunxia were a truly law-abiding citizen, she would surely be tempted and sign without hesitation.
However, the person behind her was Prefect Lu.
Her goal was to get close to Jiang Jinghuai, become his bedmate, and then whisper sweet nothings in his ear.
But if I refuse now, the other party might become suspicious.
Yunxia immediately accepted the document with gratitude and knelt down to kowtow.
Song Jinhuan did not stop her. He looked down at her as she kowtowed three times before bending down to pretend to help her up.
Before the other person could place their hand on hers, she abruptly withdrew it, saying awkwardly, "It's so wonderful that Miss Xiaoyun can stay in Anping County."
"I...I'll go now. A constable will take you there later."
Yunxia watched the fleeing figure with a confident air.
Song Jinhuan bent over, panting; she had run too fast.
"I never expected that Master Jiang would be so good at acting." Xu Qingyuan's lazy voice carried a hint of teasing.
Song Jinhuan, her breath unsteady, asked, "When did you arrive, sir?"
"You saw everything just now?"
Xu Qingyuan stopped a meter away from her, slightly hunching his back.
He began to scrutinize the person in front of him with a serious look.
Feeling guilty under her gaze, Song Jinhuan asked softly, "What are you looking at, sir?"
Xu Qingyuan smiled slightly, "Master Jiang seems to have gained quite a bit of weight recently."
