Chapter 186 The Chief Clerk is Looking for

An Yue didn't say anything, but just made a 'seven' gesture to the matchmaker.

The matchmaker gradually put away her previous smile, and her brows furrowed, and her eyes rolled quickly a few times.

"Girl, this...this needs to be increased a little more." The matchmaker said with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Grandma, if you don't want to sell it, forget it! We can go to another dental clinic to have a look!"

The matchmaker thought that if she could sell it for 7 taels now, it would be fine. If it couldn't be tamed in a few days, she might send it back and buy it back at a lower price. In this way, it was a good deal.

An Yue was walking slowly outside with the village chief, when the old woman hurried forward, held An Yue and said, "Young lady, I see that you are a smart person, so I'll give you seven taels!"

Afterwards, An Yue followed the matchmaker to the counter to pay.

After paying the money and getting the contract, a rough man pushed and kicked the woman and brought her to An Yue.

Seeing that the woman's hands, feet and mouth were still bound, An Yue decided to untie her mouth and feet.

When An Yue took the rough cloth out of the woman's mouth, the woman spat at An Yue and stared at her.

An Yue was not surprised or panicked at being spat on. Instead, she said softly to the woman, "No matter what you've been through, you will follow me from now on."

The woman didn't say anything, she struggled desperately.

The burly man standing next to the woman raised his hand and grabbed her messy hair, saying viciously, "Damn it! Behave yourself!"

An Yue was grabbed by the hair by the burly man and dared not move, but her eyes were still staring at An Yue fiercely, and the emotion in her eyes was very manic.

An Yue walked up to the woman and said calmly, "Don't worry, I bought you back to do farm work, I won't hurt you in the slightest."

The woman still stared at An Yue.

An Yue slowly approached the woman, stood on tiptoe and whispered to her, "If this deal ends here, you won't survive in the dark room for a few days. This dental shop won't keep useless things."

There was a hint of fear in the woman's eyes at this moment, and her emotions were no longer as manic as before. However, it seemed that she had not let down her guard against An Yue.

Seeing that An Yue had already untied her leg ropes, the matchmaker reminded her, "Girl, you should train her slowly after you go back!"

"Thank you for the reminder, grandma. We'll take our leave now!" After saying that, An Yue and the village chief led the woman out of the dental clinic.

Along the way, the woman remained silent and walked timidly beside An Yue, with vigilance in her eyes.

The three of them crossed two streets and alleys and arrived at the gate of the county government.

An Yue and the woman stood outside the gate of the county government waiting, while the village chief went in alone to get the silkworm seeds.

A quarter of an hour later, the village chief did not come out, but a yamen runner came instead.

The yamen runner walked up to An Yue and said politely, "Miss An Yue, the master inside wants you to come in."

This yamen runner was the one who went to the village last time to help An Yue measure the area of ​​barren mountains and wasteland. This time, he was very polite when he saw An Yue.

An Yue asked in confusion: "Sir, do you know which gentleman is looking for me?"

The yamen runner whispered to An Yue, "It's the chief clerk."

"Sir, I can only go in by myself. I have to trouble you to help keep an eye on her."

An Yue handed the woman over to the guard, and then she walked straight to the county government office.

An Yue walked into the chief clerk's study and saw the chief clerk flipping through files.

She stepped forward and bowed, "My humble servant greets you, Master Zhubu."

The chief clerk raised his head, smiled and said to An Yue: "No need to be polite, please take a seat."

After An Yue sat down, the chief clerk put down the file in his hand and asked, "By the way, what's your name?"

"My humble self is An Yue."

"Oh! Yes, yes, yes, An Yue, you see I am getting older and forgetful."

An Yue smiled and said, "My Lord is busy with things every day, so it's normal that he doesn't remember An Yue."

The chief clerk stroked his short beard and looked up and said, "The dishes that the young lady cooked last time were really delicious! The fish was so fresh and tender, and it was very delicious. Even the dumplings that were packed back, my wife took a bite and praised them highly."

After hearing this, An Yue was delighted. It seemed that this approach was feasible. In the future, she could get closer to his wife through these delicious meals.

So, An Yue said, "If Madam likes to eat it, Yueyue will take some time out to pick some fresh shepherd's purse recently, and then send it to Madam after it is cooked."

After that, An Yue added: "It's just that Baili Village is far away from the county town, and An Yue rarely comes to the county town."

The chief clerk laughed and said, "Haha... I heard that Miss An Yue and Mr. Lin have a close relationship. It just so happens that Mr. Lin goes back to Shijing Town to visit his parents every few days. When that happens, Miss An Yue can ask Mr. Lin to take her back to the county town."

After hearing this, An Yue was a little surprised. It turned out that even the slightest connection could not be hidden from others.

She cursed herself in her heart: [Pooh, pooh, pooh! It’s my fault for being so rude! Why did I mention the long journey?! I ruined a good opportunity by myself.]

An Yue smiled bitterly and said, "Yueyue will definitely not forget."

The chief clerk stood up and asked with a smile, "And what about Chunlai? It tastes so delicious! Where did Miss An Yue buy the ingredients from?"

"Your Excellency is talking about scrambled eggs with Chinese toon, right?"

The chief clerk asked curiously, "Yes, yes, yes, what is this Chinese toon sprout?"

An Yue explained: "Toona sinensis is a tree that usually grows tender leaf buds in spring, which are called toona sinensis buds. The toona sinensis bud scrambled eggs that the chief clerk tasted that day were made with the tender leaf buds of this toona sinensis tree."

The chief clerk asked again, "I see. Does the girl know where to buy these Chinese toon sprouts?"

"I'm afraid no one sells it in this county. However, this dish is available in Wanfulou. If you want to eat it, you can go to Wanfulou to taste it." An Yue said.

"In that case, I will take my wife to Wanfulou to taste some in two days."

"The Master and the Madam are so harmonious and harmonious, it's really enviable!"

"Haha... the little girl is quite good at talking."

"Your Excellency, you have given me a reward."

At this moment, the village chief came over with silkworm seeds. He saw An Yue here and asked in confusion: "Yueyue, why did you follow me in?"

The chief clerk laughed and said, "Haha... I asked Miss An Yue to come in. I have something important to ask her."

When the village chief heard what the chief clerk said, he hurriedly said respectfully, "So it was the chief clerk who wanted to see you!"

An Yue saw the village chief holding silkworm eggs wrapped in straw paper.

So, he turned around and bowed to the chief clerk, saying, "Sir, you are busy with your affairs, so we don't want to bother you. We will take our leave now."

"Well... let's go back!"

After the chief clerk finished speaking, he raised his hand and signaled to the bailiffs outside the study to send them out of the mansion.
