Chapter 194 - Shameless

Yun Gang did not specifically mention what he had done previously, and he also did not mention that there was a grudge between him and Yun Xi that could not be resolved.

He only said that he had made a small mistake and asked the county head to give him another chance. This way, the county head would not suspect him.

“This matter is not very difficult. I’ll see if I can arrange another position for you in your village. I’ll discuss this matter with Yun Xi later. After all, you’re her uncle. She should know what kind of position you’re more suitable for.”

When the county head mentioned Yun Xi’s name, Yun Gang panicked and quickly stopped him from discussing this matter with Yun Xi.

“County head, there’s no need to trouble her. This time, it was me who requested to work in the city. There’s no need to trouble Yun Xi with this matter. She is currently in high school and her academic results are not bad. I’m afraid that our trivial matters will disturb her studies.”

Yun Gang’s every sentence sounded as though he was considerate of Yun Xi.

However, Yun Gang’s reaction was too exaggerated. It did not seem like he was considerate about his niece’s studies at all. The county head felt that there was a problem with this matter, but he did not make it obvious for the time being.

The county head did not expose Yun Gang but nodded instead.

“Alright then.”

“Thank you very much, county head!”

“It’s my pleasure. You can leave first. I will inform you when this matter has been resolved.”

“Yes.”

Yun Gang tactfully left the county head’s office.

The county head then asked his most capable assistant to look for Yun Xi regarding this matter.

As expected of the county head’s most capable assistant. He took advantage of the school’s lunch break to look for Yun Xi.

Yun Xi told the county head’s assistant her views on Yun Gang, as well as her views on the matter of arranging a position for him. The assistant understood the mystery hidden within this matter and felt that Yun Gang was really an ungrateful man.

He turned around and returned to the county government.

“County head, this person called Yun Gang is indeed Yun Xi’s eldest uncle. He’s not a fake at all. However, although this identity is true, Yun Xi’s family and her eldest uncle’s family are like fire and water.”

The assistant reported everything in detail.

“What do you mean?” The county head asked.

“Yun Gang once pulled Yun Xi’s father from his position as the accountant of the village because of corruption. He was retaliated against by Yun Xi and ended up as an unemployed vagrant today. When this occurred, Yun Gang could not accept it. He went to Yun Xi’s house and wanted to beat them up. He even wanted to disfigure Yun Xi’s face. From this, it can be seen that although they are related by blood, they don’t have any kinship.”

The assistant told him everything he knew.

After the county head heard the truth, he was silent. He stood by the window and pondered for a long time.

“Did Miss Yun Xi mention anything about how this matter should be handled?”

He wanted to hear Yun Xi’s opinion.

“Miss Yun Xi said that there is indeed a way to handle this matter, but she would like you to decide first. She also said that if you are unable to decide on how to handle this matter, you can consider this. And if this matter requires financial support, she would do her best to provide it.”

The assistant came to the county head’s side and whispered in his ear about Yun Xi’s method of handling this matter.

“I didn’t expect this girl to be such a schemer. But I really admire her intelligence!”

After hearing Yun Xi’s method, the county head laughed out loud and said these words to the assistant. He intended to use Yun Xi’s method of handling the matter.

On the other hand, Yun Gang, who had been waiting at home for news, thought that he had already done the deal without any flaws. He only needed to wait at home for the county head to arrange a new job for him.

Liu Fang was also very excited. She finally did not have to weave these bamboos at home every day to support her family.
