“No, no,” Chief Lu said with a smile. “Dafu went to work and didn’t have time to come, so he asked Xue Yan and Jiang Yue to come. He said that it would be the same even if he came.”
These people couldn’t believe it, “How can these two children be the ones…”
“I’m here as well,” said Chief Lu with a smile, “It’s the same, trust me. Last time, it was Xue Yan who wrote the family separation document for Zheng’s family. Not only was his handwriting better than mine, but after the head officer read it, he even said that it was written in a much more organized way than mine and that there would be no quarrels in the future. Every word was in place, unlike the ones I wrote before, which were easy to find loopholes for. It’s different for people who have gone to school.”
Everyone then stopped talking about the two children and laughed in agreement. “It really is different.”
Not only were Li Qingshu’s parents there, but Li Qingshu himself was also there.
Li Qingshu had always been on good terms with Xue Erfu, so he didn’t care about this. He also had a pair of long legs and immediately strode over with big steps. He bent over and asked Xue Yan and Jiang Yue with a smile, “Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, where’s your Erfu?”

“Oh, oh.” Li Qingshu knew what it was about and stopped asking about Xue Erfu. He felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head, “My family’s plot of barren land has just been opened up. We haven’t planted anything yet, so I don’t know what the harvest will be like. My parents are asking your family for two silver per plot of land, but I feel that it’s a little too much.”
“Qingshu, it’s all thanks to your hard work. Who knows how many days you spent on it? It’s worth the price.” Xue Yan smiled.
“Yes, yes,” someone heard and immediately echoed. “We worked so hard to open up one acre of land. If it isn’t two silver per acre, we wouldn’t be willing to sell it.”
“Then Xue Yan, you can write your own documents here. My handwriting isn’t as good as yours.” Chief Lu sat down and smiled.
On the table, there was already a brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone.
In this village, only the village head’s family and Xue Yan’s family who had been educated had such things.
However, these things in the village head’s house were all allocated by the government to be used for the management of the village, so the village head didn’t have to buy them himself.
Xue Yan sat down on a long bench beside the table.
Jiang Yue didn’t sit next to Xue Yan immediately. Instead, she climbed onto the bench like a child and sat next to Xue Yan obediently.
Her two short legs were quite a distance away from the ground; they just hung in the air.
Since she had nothing to do, she took the ink that was not grounded and started to grind it.
Xue Yan didn’t need to grind the ink, he picked up the brush, dipped it in the ink, and began to write on a piece of paper.
Everyone came over to take a look.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough only Chief Lu knew how to write, and the others didn’t know how to write, they could tell how good the handwriting was.
“No wonder Chief Lu said that Xue Yan’s handwriting is beautiful. It really is true.” Someone couldn’t help but praise.
“My family is poor. If they had money, I would also like to send one of my children to study in town.”
“It’s also because they worked so hard to afford Xue Yan’s education for three years. How can a family be so united?”
When Xue Yan finished writing the document, he pushed it in front of the village head.
Chief Lu picked it up and looked at it carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, he read it out to the others. After he finished, he asked if they had any opinions.
Everyone said they had no objections.
They also believed that Chief Lu had read all of this in the document.
Chief Lu had been the village head for quite a few years. Usually, when the village needed to interact with the government, they would follow Chief Lu to the county. He had a trustable character. Usually, he would be the one reading these things out to them over the years, and there had never been any mistakes.
