You can use a combination of XMLAttribute and XmlText()

take below example of class declaration:

    public class Description {
    private int attribute_id;
    private string element_text;

    [XmlAttribute("id")]
    public int Id {
        get { return attribute_id; }
        set { attribute_id = value; }
    }

    [XmlText()]
    public string Text {
        get { return element_text; }
        set { element_text = value; }
    }
}

The output will be

text
