Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

After sending Fan Zheng away, Qin Yunhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing her son like this, Qin's mother knew that he must be in a difficult situation, otherwise he would not refuse with his personality.

"Listen to me, don't worry about it. You are not an official here, and you are not the county magistrate's superior. You must not let people think you are tactless."

"Well, I understand, mother."

He really can't do anything about it now. Even if his mother doesn't say anything, he can't do anything about it.

Fortunately, after seeing Fan Zheng off, no one came to the door again.

After all, Qin Yunhe's return was very low-key, and for the time being only the villagers in the same village knew that he was back.

Qin Yunhe chats with his wife, daughter and mother every day, and teaches his daughter to recite the Three Hundred Thousand, which is quite interesting.

That afternoon, Qin Yunhe had just woken up from a nap and was talking to Yuru when he heard urgent shouts coming from outside the door, coming from far away and getting closer.

"Sir—Sir—"

There were the sounds of footsteps in the yard.

Qin Yunhe recognized it as Yuger's voice and stood up to greet him. The door of the wing room was pushed open with a creak, and then a small figure flew in from outside.

"Sir—woo, woo, woo—"

Qin Yunhe caught Yuger who was rushing towards him and smiled helplessly.

"Okay, okay, why are you crying?"

Yu Ge'er cried for a few times and then stopped, but he still lingered in Qin Yunhe's arms and refused to come out.

Although Yuger and Fan Hong are only one year apart in age, Fan Hong is as calm as an old man all day long, while Yuger is always innocent and naive.

Qin Yunhe reached out and wiped his tears, and Yuger himself also reached out embarrassedly to wipe the few tears that had just fallen.

Seeing Yu Ge'er wiping his face full of tears and sweat, Yu Ru smiled and stood up and said, "You two stop wiping. I'll get some water to clean Yu Ge'er."

Yu Ru got up to pour some water, and when she went out she saw Li Xiao standing outside, apparently waiting for her son to finish his farewell talk with the teacher.

"Uncle Li, you are here too, please come in. Ah Wen, Uncle Li is here."

Qin Yunhe then realized that Li Xiao had also followed, and quickly stood up to greet him.

"Brother Li, please come in and take a seat."

Li Xiao walked into the room and said with a smile, "This kid had to come here in the middle of the day. I was really worried so I followed him."

Yu Ge'er didn't care about his father, he just kept leaning on Qin Yunhe and said, "I look forward to the master coming back every day, but why didn't the master let anyone call me when he came back?"

"Your mistress said that you come here every two or three days. I thought that even if I didn't ask anyone to call you, you would come in two days. Look, you are here now."

"I just heard that the master had returned this morning. It's been hot these past few days, and my parents don't let me go out, so I haven't been here as much. If I had known that the master had returned, I would have come a long time ago."

Li Xiao was so angry when he heard his son say that he laughed: "You little bastard, your parents were afraid that you would get a heat stroke, but you blame them for stopping you from seeing the teacher."

Qin Yunhe was also amused: "It's so hot, the master is afraid that you will get heat stroke on the way. Why don't you wait until the sun sets before coming back?"

Yu Ru wrung out the handkerchief and handed it to Qin Yunhe, who took it and wiped Yu Ge'er's face.

Li Xiao shook his head and said, "Mr. Qin, you don't know that Yu Ge'er has been reciting The Great Learning every day for the past few months, and he is looking forward to Mr. Qin's return. When he heard that Mr. Qin was back, he couldn't wait to run out."

Qin Yunhe was a little surprised that Yu Ge'er was still thinking about memorizing the book after he had been away for such a long time: "You memorized "University" by yourself?"

Yu Ge'er looked at the teacher with bright eyes and nodded: "I've finished reciting it!"

Qin Yunhe looked at him and obviously wanted to be praised, so he raised his eyebrows and asked casually: "The so-called self-cultivation is to correct one's heart-"

"If one is angry, one cannot be right; if one is afraid, one cannot be right; if one is happy, one cannot be right; if one is worried, one cannot be right. If one's mind is not there, one will see but not see, hear but not hear, and eat but not taste. This is what is meant by self-cultivation, which is to rectify one's mind."

Yuger raised his little head with a proud look on his face.

Qin Yunhe took the opportunity to praise him, "Not bad, Brother Yu has made great progress and is reciting very skillfully.

Yu Ge'er was even happier to receive the teacher's praise as he wished. He pestered Qin Yunhe and asked him many questions until Ruyi woke up from her nap and came to play with him.

The two children ran to the side and chattered about the things Qin Yunhe brought back from the capital.

Li Xiao also chatted with Qin Yunhe casually: "Mr. Qin is back now, I guess you have already accepted the job vacancy?"

"Yes, he is the prosecutor of Xu Ning Mansion."

"Xu Ning's Mansion, wouldn't it be very convenient to come and go?"

When Yu Ge'er heard this, he quickly came over and said, "Sir, where is Xu Ning's mansion? Is it close?"

"It's very close. We can get there in one day."

When Yu Ge'er heard this, his eyes lit up: "Then can I go to play with the master often?"

"Yes, you can come to see the gentleman anytime you want."

"Can I live there?"

Li Xiao was amused by his son: "You little bastard, you don't want your parents anymore, you only want your teacher, right?"

Yu Ge'er knew that Qin Yunhe's official position was not far away, so he didn't worry about it anymore and ran away with a smile.

Li Xiao asked again: "When will Mr. Qin take up his post?"

"Three months later."

Li Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I heard someone say that the area around Qushan has been unstable recently. If you are going to take up your post, you should try to stay away from that area."

Qin Yunhe's heart skipped a beat: "Did something happen near Qushan?"

"It is said that there are robbers. In fact, those robbers should not dare to rob officials, but Mr. Qin has not yet taken office and there are no officials accompanying him. I am afraid that those robbers will not open their eyes. When the time comes, Mr. Qin should just avoid that place."

How did Qin Yun know Qushan? His fourth brother in his previous life was born in Qushan.

"Brother Li, have you heard that someone has died in Qushan?"

"Human lives... I haven't heard of that. Generally speaking, when robbers rob people, they are unlikely to kill or injure people easily. After all, if no one is killed, the government may turn a blind eye. But if someone is killed, they will definitely be punished by the government."

No one was killed?

Seeing Qin Yunhe lost in thought, Li Xiao quickly said, "Don't worry too much, Mr. Qin. Just avoid him when the time comes. Actually, I have a favor to ask for today."

After hearing what Li Xiao said, Qin Yunhe stopped thinking about those things and asked, "Brother Li, please speak."

"A few friends want to invite Mr. Qin to dinner. Please ask Mr. Qin."

Qin Yunhe thought that Li Xiao was a reliable person and definitely not a messy person, so he responded, "No problem, Brother Li will arrange it."
