How to reference xml data C#

I have this xml file...

<xmlheufthdc src="http://172.16.7.50:8990/xml/heuft/hdc" version="1.0" time="2016-11-23T09:23:43.172Z">
<device name="2NG012550">
<entry name="count_total" status="valid">80849</entry>
</device>
</xmlheufthdc>

I have used c# and been able to access the data under entry name and entry status but i how do i make reference to the number 80849. ie what would i call it rather than name or status.

The code is as follows

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    Form2 form2 = new Form2();



    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();        
    }

    public string add1;
    public string read1;
    public string att11;
    public string att21;


    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {


    }

    public void configureToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      form2.Show();

    }

    private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string text1 = "";
        string text2;
        add1 = form2.add;
        read1 = form2.read;
        att11 = form2.att1;
        att21 = form2.att2;


        XmlReader xmlReader = XmlReader.Create(add1);
        while (xmlReader.Read())
        {
            if ((xmlReader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element) && (xmlReader.Name == read1))
            {
                if (xmlReader.HasAttributes)
                    text1=(xmlReader.GetAttribute(att11) + ": " + xmlReader.GetAttribute(att21));
                textBox1.Text = text1;
            }

        }
    }
}

The att items are entred in another form and this is where i would enter. read1 being "entry" and att1 being "name" and att21 being "status".

Sorry im new to this any information would be much appreciated.

Thanks Alistair

The number can be accessed by using the InnerText property of XmlNode class.
