Chapter 627: Chapter 627: Madam Xie Cuts Her Hand Chapter 627: Chapter 627: Madam Xie Cuts Her Hand While Xuexue was talking to the village head, Great General Situ saw her, and tears came to his eyes. Indeed, the girl before him looked exactly like the person in Long Rui’s portrait, strikingly resembling his deceased wife.
When the county magistrate saw his expression, he quickly said loudly to Xuexue, “Miss Mo, I hope you are well!”
“County Magistrate, your presence truly graces my humble dwelling.” Xuexue joked. This county magistrate was a troublesome figure, always trying to get information from her about whether she knew any nobles in the Capital, hoping to use her to get a promotion.
“There’s no need for formalities between us, Miss Mo. Today, I specifically came here to introduce someone to you.” The county magistrate was smug, admiring his own discernment for recognizing Xuexue as a noble at first glance. Of course, the current situation also proved it. Fortunately, he had never offended her before. Otherwise, with General Situ’s status, it would take him only a minute to do away with him, a mere seventh rank low ranking official.
Xuexue was also puzzled inside. They had gone through so much trouble to enter her house, there must be some significant issue.
The county magistrate led General Situ to Xuexue, “Miss Mo, this is General Situ, who has come from the Capital. He has been searching hard for you.
Without the county magistrate’s mention, Xuexue hadn’t even noticed Yongjie. Seeing him suddenly, she was extremely shocked. In her past life, they had distinctly not recognized each other here.
Xuexue clearly remembered that after Madam Xie was harmed by Auntie Sun, she had taken the initiative to send someone to the Capital to tell Yongjie, then he had sent someone to bring her back to the Capital. Their first meeting was at the General’s Mansion, where she was mocked by the maids, saying that she, a mere mountain chicken, fancied becoming a Phoenix, which was utterly delusional.
In the end, it was Situtu Qinger who rescued her and severely punished those maids. Since then, she foolishly considered her a blood sister, always manipulated by her, until she was step by step led to her death.
Madam Xie, who was cleaning pieces off the ground, stiffened all over when she heard the words “the Capital,” drifting off as she accidentally cut her finger on a sharp ceramic shard, “Ouch!”
Blood began to flow from her finger.
Chuner, quick to notice, immediately ran over, “Mother, you’re bleeding.”
“It’s nothing.” Madam Xie, distracted, stole glances at Yongjie. Indeed, this man was Xuexue’s biological father. Back when she worked at the General’s Mansion, she had seen him from a distance.
Chuner, not minding the rest, called out loudly to Xuexue, “Sister, sister, mother has cut her hand, and it’s bleeding a lot. Come quickly and have a look.”
While Xuexue was still shocked by how different the events of her past and current lives were, she heard Chuner’s panicked calls, “What’s the matter?”
“Mother has cut her hand.”
“Oh!”
Turning around, Xuexue saw Madam Xie’s hand covered in blood and hurriedly sprang into action, running to the main hall to find the medical kit. These were all part of her precautionary measures, previously placed at home for such minor injuries and ailments.
Xuexue understood the concerns of Madam Xie. She was worried Xuexue would go to the Capital and never see her again, which was why she got distracted and injured her hand.
“Mother, don’t bother with these pieces. Let me clean them up later.” Standing nearby were two Imperial Appointed Officials and a village head, but Xuexue ignored them, focused on bandaging Madam Xie’s wound.
Normally, being ignored like this would displease the county magistrate. However, times had changed. Xuexue’s biological father was a Great General from the Capital, and his favor could influence the magistrate’s future promotion opportunities. Thus, the county magistrate dared not utter a word of complaint.
