Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Not to mention Accountant Tan, everyone present was probably frightened by the thick-backed broadsword that was shining with a cold light.

Accountant Tan was even more shocked.

A real jump.

In fear, Tan's voice also changed: "What are you doing! Are you crazy?"

That tone was completely devoid of the usual kindness and respect.

Auntie Deng's eyes were terribly cold. She looked at Accountant Tan as if she were looking at a pig to be slaughtered: "You won't say anything?"

Accountant Tan asked angrily, "What are you talking about? You reckless woman, what are you going to do? In front of so many people, do you dare to kill someone?!"

Looking at the expression of Accountant Tan, Xu Yun thought of a saying: No tears until you see the coffin.

However, it seems that Accountant Tan will not admit it.

So, she kindly reminded him, "I accidentally read Auntie Deng's letter home."

Accountant Tan's face turned pale. A very pale pale.

His momentum also weakened. He was questioning just now, but now... he seemed to be trembling a little.

Accountant Tan's face twitched, and he forced a smile, a little flattering and pleading: "We can talk about it, we can talk about it. Aunt Deng, look--"

Auntie Deng's eyes were blazing, her hands on her hips, and she said in an amazing manner: "What are you looking at? Where are your things?"

Xu Yun always felt that if Accountant Tan dared to say that there was nothing, the thick-backed knife would fall on him.

Accountant Tan shrank back, looked at the people around him who stretched their necks and ears, and said even more flatteringly: "How about we talk somewhere else--"

"Change your ass!" Aunt Deng spat at him, "Why, you did something shameful and you don't want anyone to know? You're ugly but you think it's beautiful!"

Faced with Aunt Deng's insults, Accountant Tan dared not say a word.

Xu Yun smiled faintly and gave Tan the accountant some advice: "Instead of covering up this matter and exaggerating it, it is better to admit it frankly. People die for money, birds die for food, there is nothing to be ashamed of."

Accountant Tan didn't dare to do anything to Aunt Deng, but he was not polite to Xu Yun at all. He was so angry at Xu Yun's words that he glared at her without thinking: "How dare you butt in here?!"

If he hadn't secretly retreated while cursing, it would have been more impressive.

Aunt Deng pulled out her knife and chopped the table again.

The table in accountant Tan's office was chopped right through.

Aunt Deng glared, pulled out a knife and pointed it at the tip of Tan's nose: "Are you talking nonsense again?"

Accountant Tan said nothing and just hid backwards in fear. However, at this time, Accountant Tan had already rubbed against the wall.

There is no way to retreat.

Accountant Tan no longer had any hope. Seeing that he had no way to escape, he simply made up his mind: "It's not that I want to covet your things. They are threatening me. What can I do? I am a scholar--"

This time, Auntie Deng really spat on Accountant Tan's face. She was very angry and said, "Don't insult scholars! I don't think there are many scholars in the world who are so black-hearted and rotten-hearted! You didn't collude with them, how could you hide it from me?"

Xu Yun took the opportunity to remind him: "This is probably not the first time. We can compare the letters and do the math later. Then we can get everything back."

Aunt Deng became even angrier. She took a big step forward and directly blocked Accountant Tan in the corner between the table and the wall: "Hand it over!"

Accountant Tan looked at Xu Yun, wishing he could shout "Would you please shut up?"

But Aunt Deng was blocking the way and looking so aggressive that he really didn't have the courage. Finally he raised his hands and covered his face: "They are all under the bed in my room. But I only got a small part of it——"

Auntie Deng turned around and pointed to two people she trusted: "Take your men and go under his bed and move all the things here!"

At this moment, we can see the prestige of Aunt Deng here.

Even though Accountant Tan was very popular, they still had hesitation on their faces, but still chose to listen to Aunt Deng.

Soon, several women came over carrying a wooden box.

Accountant Tan looked at his savings, his face was as bleak as if covered with mortar, and he was distressed. This distress even drove him to say a few more words, but in the end he looked at Aunt Deng and didn't dare to say anything.

Aunt Deng was not polite: "Pry it open!"

After the lock was pried open and the box was opened, there was not only silk cloth, but also several pieces of leather and two small boxes.

Aunt Deng still ordered people to pry it open.

After prying it open, everyone fell silent.

There were two boxes, one filled with gold, the other filled with various gold and silver jewelry, precious stones and jade.

When they saw that thin layer of golden cake, everyone's eyes were fixed.

Even Xu Yun was dazzled.

Then I couldn't help but think: How much grain must have been embezzled to accumulate so much money?

Xu Yun looked at Aunt Deng.

Auntie Deng was so angry that her whole body tensed up. She pointed the knife in her hand at the tip of Tan's nose and moved closer. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Is this all the money you got from embezzling grain?"

Accountant Tan tried his best to move backwards, his eyes fixed on Aunt Deng's knife, as if he always felt that the knife would chop down on his face the next moment. He even trembled as he spoke: "The gold was exchanged for the grain, and the jewels were brought back by your Erlang. I only got 30%..."

Just 30%, but it's almost enough to fill up a small box.

If you take it all back, how much will it be?

There was silence in the room for a moment.

After a while, someone asked, "What food? What's going on?"

Aunt Deng simply said that she had discovered today that the accounts were not right and that the things mentioned in the letter were not given to her family.

Now, Xu Yun truly felt what it meant to be indignant in a crowd.

Aunt Deng was already restrained, while the other women almost tore Accountant Tan to pieces. Some even shouted that their husbands must have brought back some things, which were all embezzled by Accountant Tan.

The scene was chaotic for a while.

Accountant Tan's hat was torn off, his clothes were torn in several places, and his face was covered with saliva.

Aunt Deng did not stop them. Instead, she put away the knife, stepped aside a few steps, and watched coldly as Accountant Tan was being dragged around.

After watching enough of the show, Aunt Deng said, "If you suspect that your things have been stolen, go back and get the letter and have Miss Xu read it again."

As for the account book—Auntie Deng rolled it up and put it in her arms.

Aunt Deng didn't allow anyone to touch those things. She sealed them up as they were and put seals on them.

Accountant Tan had the man tied up and sent to the county town for interrogation.

Xu Yun, who was watching from the side, admired Aunt Deng even more - how could one not admire such a woman who was rough but meticulous, brave and resourceful?

As she watched, her heart felt slightly warm, and a voice echoed in her mind: One day, I want to become a person like this!

Aunt Deng looked at Xu Yun and said, "Thank you for taking care of us, Miss Xu. I will give you three eggs later."

Xu Yun's excitement instantly calmed down: Well, the price is reasonable.
