Thinking that Wan Ziyan would be the county magistrate and Chen Yongnian would be the clerk, Wan Qiqi would surely stay in Yunhe County as well, he felt happy.
With the assistance of these people, Yunhe County will surely develop better and better.
Who knows, in two years, I might get promoted and make a fortune because of the development of Yunhe County.
Luckily, I was quick-witted this time, otherwise I would have been bitten by Boss Geng's dog!
Bringing Chen Yongnian into the county government was the best decision he ever made.
Wan Qiqi's eyes were full of surprise.
She stared at Wan Ziyan and asked, "Second Brother, are you sure?"
If he were to be appointed as a county magistrate directly, he would have to climb the ranks step by step.
Whether the period was several years or several decades is unknown.
If he doesn't take office, but participates in next year's imperial examination and is selected as a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examination), he can become a government official in the capital, and his career prospects will be much better than they are now.
Although Wan Qiqi didn't understand the ancient official system, she knew that officials in the capital were usually demoted to local positions if they made mistakes.
If Wan Ziyan were to become the county magistrate of Yunhe County, his dream of turning his life around and marrying Bai Lingxuan would be a distant dream!
Wan Ziyan avoided Wan Qiqi's gaze and smiled faintly, "Didn't you also advise me to give it a try?"
"But that's not what I meant!" Wan Qiqi sensed that Wan Ziyan was hiding something from her.
How could he possibly agree to become an official so easily?
Wan Ziyan did not return to Wan Qiqi, but turned to look at Fang Ziming, saying, "It is impolite to stand at the door and talk for so long."
Fang Ziming smiled and hurriedly invited the person inside, "Come on, a banquet has been prepared. From now on, we are colleagues. Let's have a few drinks together tonight."
"Ziyan thanks Lord Fang for his hospitality." Wan Ziyan bowed and followed Fang Ziming into the courtyard.
Wan Qiqi watched Wan Ziyan's retreating figure without frowning.
Chen Yongnian lowered his head and asked, "Wife, should I not have taken up a post in the county government? Otherwise, my second brother wouldn't have..."
"It's your decision, and you're right." Wan Qiqi smiled, but there was no smile in her eyes. "Let's go! Don't keep them waiting!"
