352 Good-looking
Zhang Zhan did not need to know the answer now. Seeing Village Chief Huâs troubled expression, he waved his hand and said, âWeâll talk about this later. We can discuss it at length then.â
In any case, he would have to stay in Yongding County for at least three years. It might be a little difficult to use three years to change the entire county, but there might be a turning point?
If he was lucky enough to seize the opportunity and let the entire Yongding County rise to the next level, his colleagues who were sent to richer places would probably be shocked.
After confirming the matter of the generalâs tomb, Zhang Zhan went to Village Chief Huâs house for dinner at night.
Old Master Hu, Elder Ma, and the others were also present and were especially polite to Zhang Zhan.
No one would underestimate this young county magistrate.
After all, before he became the county magistrate, he was the Imperial Envoy who directly removed the previous county magistrate.
Ordinary people really would not have this kind of courage.
He ate at Village Chief Huâs house, but he lived in Qin Huaiâs house.
Chi Tu and the others naturally showed themselves.
Seeing them, Zhang Zhan found it funny. âThat little demon is quite good to Ah Yu. He actually left all of you behind.â
The little demon did not even have many people he could use, but he was actually willing to leave so many men here.
In that case, wouldnât he be even worse off in Wanning City?
Although the Duke Yong Manor did not like to interact with others, it did not mean that it was absolutely safe inside.
According to what Zhang Zhan knew, the little demon often suffered some grievances in the Duke Yong Manor.
It was as if someone was deliberately training him.
âSpeaking of which, I havenât seen him in a long time. He knows how to make use of me. The two kids send messages or things to each other every day. I havenât seen him send anything to me,â Zhang Zhan complained.
Ever since he found out that he had come here to be a county magistrate, Qin Huai had always sent things to Zhang Zhan before asking him to send them out.
This way, they could hide the existence of Old man Wangâs family from the outside world.
Zhang Zhan asked, âDo you think I should ask your Young Master for some commision?â
Chi Tu lowered his head and did not say anything, pretending not to hear anything.
âAll of them are like logs. Theyâre not even as interesting as that widow.â Thinking of the talkative Widow Zhou during the day, Zhang Zhan shook his head.
Stop, stop. Why was he thinking about a widow at night?
He had probably been single for too long and his mind had been possessed.
At the thought of the portraits of the ladies his mother had shown him before he took office, Zhang Zhan only wanted to shake his head.
Forget it, I wonât think about it anymore. Iâll go to sleep.
Little Ah Yu was not asleep yet.
âElf, can you wear good-looking clothes after becoming an official?â Little Ah Yu asked.
[Huh? What good-looking clothes?]
âIâm talking about Uncle Zhang. The clothes Uncle Zhang is wearing are very good-looking. Father will definitely look good in them. Second Uncle wants to take the imperial examination and become an official in the future. Can he also wear good-looking clothes?â
Little Ah Yu had been thinking about this question for a long time.
[Heâs not wearing an official uniform.]
Meatball was about to say that the official uniform was very different. It was tight and might not look good.
However, seeing Ah Yuâs yearning expression, it didnât refute her.
[After becoming an official, there are many clothes that you can wear. For example, if your family doesnât have an official now, you canât wear silk. There are particular rules about cotton clothes too. Many patterns canât be used.]
Meatball told Little Ah Yu about the clothes and etiquette of their Great Chang Nation.
At first, Little Ah Yu was still listening, but later, she began to doze off.
Before she fell asleep in a daze, she was still muttering, âThen I want to grow up quicklyâ¦â
Only when she grew up could she become an official. When she became an official, she could let her family wear good-looking clothes.
At this moment, thousands of miles away in Wanning City, Qin Huai was still awake.
Chi Jia held a bloody sword in his hand and pushed Qin Huai back with his other hand. âYoung Master, leave quickly!â
