Why marry someone when you are reborn?

After saying this, Aunt Deng looked at Xu Yun deeply.

Xu Yun felt a little frightened by this look.

But when she tried to look carefully, Aunt Deng's eyes returned to normal, as if it was just an illusion.

Xu Yun frowned slightly, feeling that it was not an illusion.

She asked tentatively: "Why, is this method inappropriate?"

Auntie Deng slapped her thigh happily and said, "That's right! It's perfect! How can you know Erlang so well?"

Xu Yun understood why the look just now was wrong - perhaps he felt that she had grasped Erlang's life force too accurately and was shocked.

So Xu Yun said: "Anyone who has read Erlang's letter can understand Erlang."

It's clearly written on the paper!

Aunt Deng sighed deeply: "It's good to have studied! It's good to have studied!"

The next day, Aunt Deng handed over the task of buying grain to another person, and stayed behind to wait for Xu Yun to finish the real account book, and then took Xu Yun to the county town.

He said he was going to buy some things and deliver a letter.

Xie Wanqing was a little worried, but Xu Yun held her back: "If Aunt Deng had bad intentions, she wouldn't have waited until now. Besides, now is our chance."

Rather than rushing on his own, Xu Yun felt it would be better to sit under a big tree and enjoy the shade.

Aunt Deng is that big tree!

Xie Wanqing still reminded him, "Be careful when you go out."

Xu Yun responded.

It takes more than ten miles to get to the county town.

On the way, Aunt Deng had no mood to talk to Xu Yun and her expression was solemn.

Before Xu Yun entered the city, he whispered, "If there is a pharmacy, let's go buy another dose of medicine. Just to make it look good."

This makes the death of Accountant Tan seem more plausible.

Aunt Deng nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes."

For some reason, ever since the incident with Accountant Tan, Aunt Deng began to look at Xu Yun with extra gentleness and began to trust Xu Yun extra.

It was a time of chaos, and even under the jurisdiction of the Spark Army, everywhere looked somewhat desolate and dilapidated.

There are not many pedestrians on the road.

In the county town, there were even more soldiers than pedestrians.

Xu Yun looked around quietly and found that only one in ten shops on the street remained. Most of them were closed, and only a few were open.

Auntie Deng explained: "During the previous war, most of the men were conscripted."

"It's not us, it's the imperial court." Aunt Deng sighed deeply, "Most of them are dead."

Ordinary people who have not received training can only serve as coolies or vanguards when they go to the battlefield.

To put it nicely, they are the vanguard army, to put it bluntly, they are seeking death!

After hearing this, Xu Yun felt a little sad, and looking back, he felt even more emotional.

Aunt Deng took Xu Yun to the pharmacy first.

Xu Yun wrote a prescription and asked Aunt Deng to get the medicine, while he himself went to find the shopkeeper and bought some ready-made medicine.

They had originally prepared some, but they were all left in the carriage.

So I need to prepare some more.

Unexpectedly, the medicine turned out to be ridiculously expensive. After the shopkeeper quoted the price, he politely asked, "Will you buy more?"

Xu Yun touched the purse in his sleeve, gritted his teeth, took out a gold bead, and gave it to the shopkeeper: "You can choose the right one, for colds and ordinary wound medicine."

The shopkeeper shook his head: "We don't have any medicine for external injuries. We have medicine for colds."

Xu Yun nodded: "Just the cold is fine!"

The shopkeeper gave Xu Yun a dozen pills, wrapped them in paper and hidden them on his body so that they would not be noticeable.

Aunt Deng also got the medicine. She picked up the medicine wrapped in straw paper and glanced at Xu Yun.

Xu Yun calmly put the medicine away, not feeling embarrassed at all because Aunt Deng saw through her use.

Aunt Deng smiled and waved her hand: "I didn't think much about it."

Xu Yun felt embarrassed now——

After leaving the pharmacy, Aunt Deng took Xu Yun to the county government office.

The county government now has two groups of people, one group is responsible for managing local public security, and the other group is responsible for collecting and transporting military supplies.

Aunt Deng has acquaintances on both sides.

When he saw the captain of the grain-collecting team, Xu Yun subconsciously glanced at Aunt Deng's lower back.

Not seeing the knife, Xu Yun felt relieved.

The captain came up to greet her with a smile, and Aunt Deng also responded with a smile.

Xu Yun watched from the side and admired Aunt Deng even more.

Aunt Deng shook the medicine bag in her hand several times while speaking.

The captain couldn't help but notice and asked politely: "Who is sick?"

Aunt Deng nodded, looking worried: "It was Accountant Tan. I don't know if it was due to a cold, but he said he had a headache and felt dizzy. I bought him some medicine and I hope he gets better soon. Otherwise, what will we do without him?"

When the captain heard that it was accountant Tan, his face showed more concern and less perfunctory. He asked a few questions seriously and said that he would go and see him when he had time.

Aunt Deng responded without any surprise.

After the greetings here, Aunt Deng went to the other side.

This time the person he was looking for was Zhou, the county magistrate. Now that there was no county magistrate, the county magistrate was the highest official.

But he is a local and doesn't put on airs.

County Magistrate Zhou saw Aunt Deng and was also very friendly: "Are you here, Aunt Deng? Are you here to do something or to buy something?"

Aunt Deng took the initiative to talk about Accountant Tan: "Accountant Tan is ill and looks a little unwell. I came to tell you about this. In addition, there is one other thing."

"His family isn't here either..." County Magistrate Zhou frowned and thought for a moment, then finally said, "I'll write a letter to his family and ask them to send someone over as soon as possible. But I'll leave him in your care."

When County Magistrate Zhou said this, he didn't seem to be particularly worried, but he felt a little emotional.

On the contrary, County Magistrate Zhou's eyes were always on Xu Yun.

After talking about the accountant Tan, he took the opportunity to talk about Xu Yun: "Who is this young lady? She looks somewhat familiar."

Xu Yun was stunned, and subconsciously tried to recall whether he had seen such a person before.

But she had no impression of him at all. She took the initiative to speak: "Maybe County Magistrate Zhou has seen someone similar. But I have never seen County Magistrate Zhou."

Aunt Deng also spoke up: "This child has a miserable life. Her family encountered bandits on the way to escape, and one of their family members died. If they hadn't met us, they would have died too."

After briefly introducing their origins, Aunt Deng said, "Since they have settled here, please open an account for them."

When Xu Yun heard this, his eyes widened. He was really surprised, happy and nervous!

What surprised me was why Aunt Deng would help me so much.

The good news is that if this thing really comes true, she and Xie Wanqing will be safer! And it will save a lot of trouble!

What makes me nervous is: Will it work?

County Magistrate Zhou looked at Xu Yun.

Xu Yun clenched his fingers and bowed sincerely: "Thank you for your help, County Magistrate Zhou."

He was neither humble nor arrogant, but polite and well-mannered.

County Magistrate Zhou looked at him and suddenly asked, "From your accent, you are not a local. Where are you from? Where did you grow up? What is your relationship with the Xie family of Chenjun?"
