Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.

Chapter 72 Becoming a Female Official, Becoming a General

Zhao had witnessed Yun Qiaoqiao's skills; a little girl had actually pinned several boys to the ground and beaten them, her strength was extraordinary.

A bag of flour is difficult for an adult man to carry, but Yun Qiaoqiao can carry two bags by herself.

I reckon he could knock her son down with one punch...

He does not mean that.

Yun Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up. Could she become a female general?

Yun Shengsheng blinked as well. [You know what, with my fourth sister's skills, if she found a proper teacher to teach her properly, she might actually be able to go to the battlefield and kill enemies in the future.]

Since my fourth sister could disguise herself as a man and infiltrate the bandit stronghold without being discovered, she probably wouldn't be discovered if she entered the army camp dressed as a boy.

[When we achieve great feats, who will care whether my fourth sister is a man or a woman! Isn't she the perfect Mulan?!]

I wonder if there are any female generals in the military in this world. If not, then my fourth sister would be the first female general in this country. How awesome would that be!

Yun Qiaoqiao was thrilled when she heard her younger sister's heartfelt words.

She... could be a female general, the first female general!!

Yun Huaikang and Gan Yuwan naturally heard Yun Shengsheng's words as well.

The family immediately became worried, fearing that Yun Qiaoqiao might be blinded by Sheng Sheng's words and secretly run away to join the army one day.

Just as Yun Huaikang was about to say something to calm Yun Qiaoqiao down, Yun Qiaoqiao excitedly slammed her hand on the table.

"Father, Mother, I've made up my mind. I don't want to be a knight-errant anymore; I want to be a female general!"

Everyone: (⊙-⊙)

Yun Shengsheng gave her a thumbs up.

"Well done, Fourth Sister!"

"I support you!"

Everyone: (*  ̄︿ ̄)

Hearing her younger sister's support, Yun Qiaoqiao couldn't even eat, jumping around happily.

"However, if Fourth Sister were to become a general, wouldn't she have to learn to write? Learning military books, military strategies, and how to lead troops into battle is actually quite difficult!" Yun Ziyan, who hadn't spoken until now, said.

Yun Qiaoqiao immediately froze and didn't move.

"Huh? We still can't get past learning to read?"

Yun Shengsheng also thought of this and nodded.

[Yeah, nothing's easy. Sigh!]

Yun Huaikang coughed lightly and said, "So no matter what you're planning to do, let's first hire a female tutor to teach you to read. That way, you'll have a chance to do anything else!"

Yun Qiaoqiao calmed down and obediently sat down at the table, looking at her father.

Yun Xiaoxiao, Yun Shuangshuang, and Yun Pianpian also looked at Yun Huaikang.

Yun Huaikang: "Well, don't worry, I'll go out and ask around for you tomorrow. If we're going to find someone, we'll find someone decent."

Fan Sibo suddenly interjected, "Speaking of female teachers, I do have a suitable candidate."

All eyes at the table fell on him.

He slowly recounted: "My former master's wife was originally a capable nanny serving the mistress of a wealthy family in the capital. She taught several young ladies, all of whom married very well. I heard that the best one is now a concubine in the palace."

Everyone was surprised; they never expected his teacher's wife to be so powerful.

Fan Sibo paused for a moment, then continued, "Later, my teacher's wife followed him back to his hometown, which is Yuliang County, which is right next to ours."

"When my teacher was alive, he often praised his wife, saying that she was literate, well-mannered, and had excellent manners, even better than the average lady from a wealthy family. It's just a pity that after my teacher passed away, his wife lived alone in an old house in Yuliang County, rarely going out and not interacting with many people."

Fan Sibo felt a little sad when he thought of his teacher's wife.

Because the master passed away so early, even though he left his wife a house and some money before he left, she still faced great hardship living alone.

His master's wife didn't tell him, but he could tell that she was struggling financially.

Unfortunately, he wasn't much better off himself. He failed the exam three times in a row, leaving him with no spare money to take care of his teacher's wife.

However, he would visit his teacher's wife almost every month, bring her some gifts, and chat with her.

It could be said that he regarded his teacher's wife as half a mother.

If the younger girls really want to find a female teacher this time, they can bring their teacher's wife to live with them. That would put his mind at ease.

I just don't know if my master's wife will agree.

Yun Huaikang and Gan Yuwan were overjoyed to hear Fan Sibo's words and quickly inquired about his teacher's wife's recent situation, clearly determined to invite her over.

Fan Sibo was also very happy and naturally said whatever came to mind.

Yun Huaikang's eyes lit up, and a plan came to mind.

He was going to rescue the imperial envoy in a couple of days. He hadn't thought of a reason yet, but now that he was going to the neighboring county to hire a female tutor for his daughters, it was a perfect excuse, killing two birds with one stone.

He had just asked Sheng Sheng for five days off, so there shouldn't be any problem.

That night, as Gan Yuwan counted the silver, she whispered to Yun Huaikang, "You should go see Old Master Li tomorrow and ask about the selection of female officials. It's definitely too late this year, but maybe next year or the year after?"

She always felt indebted to her third daughter, because her third daughter was neither the eldest nor the youngest, but just in the middle, so she received less attention from her.

Yun Huaikang: "How much silver did you earn today?"

Gan Yuwan was taken aback, having just finished calculating, and looked up with a smile, saying, "The pastry shop costs two and a half taels of silver, and the sweet drink shop costs three taels of silver!"

"So it's five and a half ounces in total!"

This is a day's income, which is equivalent to an average family's annual income.

Yun Huaikang's lips curled up as he watched Gan Yuwan put the money away. He said, "I've also decided to go see Old Master Li tomorrow morning. Since our third daughter wants to enter the palace as a lady-in-waiting, we as her parents should definitely support her."

After waking up, Yun Shengsheng and the others went to school again. After Yun Huaikang finished tidying up the family shop, he went to find Old Li.

I inquired in detail with Elder Li about the selection of female officials.

Old Master Li was quite surprised. He knew that it was his third daughter, Yun Shuangshuang, who wanted to become a female official. After thinking about it, he realized that she was his own third sister, so he carefully explained the matter of becoming a female official.

"Shuangshuang's luck is pretty good? She might even make it into this year's batch! Forget about being literate, she at least needs to have no problems with manners and etiquette!"

Yun Huaikang asked in surprise, "Old Li, could you tell me when this group of female officials will leave?"

Why does he feel that his third daughter can't keep up?

Old Li lowered his voice and whispered, "It'll probably be around March or April next year!"

"Oh? So late?" Well, maybe you can still make it.

It seems we absolutely must invite the lady.

Two days later, on November 18th, before dawn, Yun Huaikang led Yun Shengsheng, Fan Sibo, Yun Ziyan, and the dozen or so wounded soldiers out the door.

These wounded soldiers were well-fed and cared for every day, and they grew a lot of flesh on their bodies, and their complexions became very rosy.

They were just worried about not having anywhere to stretch their muscles, and now that they can go out, they're all quite excited.

They used three oxcarts in total, two of which were borrowed from the Chen family. Then they set off in a grand procession…
