Money makes the devil work and the devil clears the way for the devil. In order to get a formal household registration document to finalize his identity, He Yue spent a lot of money.

However, things went unexpectedly smoothly. Aunt Fang and Aunt Ma said that it was because the county magistrate of Min County was replaced. The new county magistrate was very impressive. He was the top scholar in the 19th year of Xingyuan! I don't know why he was demoted to the position of county magistrate of Min County.

At that time, Aunt Fang said that He Yue was lucky. "If you meet the county magistrate above, I don't know how much money you will have to pay. The more urgent you are for the household registration documents, the more money he will secretly offer!"

Even if it's just a layer of skin peeling off, it's considered good. I'm afraid they'll have to sacrifice all the flesh on your body, leaving only a tiny skeleton for you to survive.

Lucky He Yue had a huge sum of money left over, so she bought a house with a courtyard in the village. Lying on the recliner, she thought of the money that made her feel at ease, and once again sincerely thanked Ning Rusong, "Mr. He is such a good man."

Her heart is as brilliant as her appearance. Ning Rushong's elegant and noble face appeared in her mind again.

The narrow and long phoenix eyes are curved inwards and outwards. Just a slight glance at people seems to contain affection and convey meaning.

The voice is also very gentle, retaining an indescribable tenderness.

The summer breeze blew away the heat. He Yue took a nap with her eyes closed. Her hands rested on the edge of the lounge chair, her slender, white fingers naturally bent slightly. The most troublesome things had been solved smoothly, and she looked quite carefree.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" There was a knock on the door in the front yard. "Mrs. He, I'm here to bring you food!"

Before, everyone in the village called her Miss He, but after she put on the white silk flower, they started calling her that.

Farmers are not so particular and most of them call each other Aunt Fang or Second Sister-in-law Li. But everyone feels awkward when using these words to describe He Yue, so they start to use more literary words.

He Yue woke up and looked up at the sky. The dark clouds broke apart and the afterglow was orange. It was already dusk.

"I'm here." He Yue covered her mouth with her hands and yawned, blinking away tears. She went to the front yard to open the door. There was a woman with a hearty smile. She was Aunt Fang's daughter. She was carrying a basket in her hand, with prepared food under a clean cloth.

"Thank you." He Yue said softly, and took the basket with a smile, "The wind is very cool today, I almost fell asleep."

He Yue held back the word "death" which means "sleeping to death". Most people here believed in gods and ghosts, and every household had statues of gods that were either delicate or crude. Some people were very averse to mentioning the word "death".

Aunt Fang's daughter took over the conversation, "That's right, it seems like autumn is coming soon."

The two chatted for a while, and then Aunt Fang's daughter left. "Mrs. He, please have your meal. I have to go home and help my mother sew clothes."

He Yue, who had just woken up, was extremely lazy and leaned against the door with a casual and relaxed attitude.

He lifted the cloth covering the basket and took a look. There were two vegetarian dishes, one meat dish, and a big bowl of rice. It smelled delicious because it was made with oil. He Yue's already good mood today became even better. The world is big, but the belly is the biggest.

The meals she cooked were barely enough to fill her stomach and satisfy her basic living needs, so she went to the village to ask who would take on the cooking job. She had originally set her eyes on a woman named Li Xiaoshu, but she never expected that Aunt Fang's daughter would take the initiative to approach her to take the job.

She had to consider the personal relationships. He Yue had a good relationship with Aunt Fang, so she did not reject Aunt Fang's daughter. She was initially a little worried and skeptical, but after eating there a few times, she was impressed.

I wish I could take her to the county to open a restaurant. It would be such a waste of such a good skill!

He Yue, who was about to stand up and go back to the house to eat, was stopped by a woman who was approaching quickly. She was shaking her handkerchief and twisting her body. From a distance, she looked like a round red hydrangea that had turned into a spirit.

Two servants followed behind, carrying a wooden box tied with red silk.

"Madam He!" The old woman came up to He Yue breathlessly, and spoke again only after she had calmed down. She had a flattering smile on her face, but it seemed a little contemptuous if you looked deeper.

The big-faced woman kept talking, and she made her purpose clear at the beginning, "You are so lucky!"

He Yue understood, she! She had gotten into great trouble!

Holding the basket of food in one hand and holding the door with the other, He Yue was ready to "kick the ball" back to the house at any time.

"The third young master of the Luo family has taken a fancy to you and specially asked me to come and deliver the betrothal gift." The round-faced old woman looked as if she was sincerely congratulating He Yue, and she pressed the door panel back with premeditated moves, preventing her from closing the door.

"Xiaopin" is a slang term in Min County, which actually refers to the gift for taking a concubine. He Yue went to the county twice in total, both times to handle household registration documents, and yet she was still being targeted by someone who came out of nowhere.

He Yue's eyes were filled with anger, and she spoke sharply, "Matchmaker, since you've come to my house, you should know that I'm a widow. Don't accept my money without any conscience!"

He turned around and carefully placed the basket in a safe place, then used both hands to pull the round-faced old woman's hands that were resting on the door panel, using such force that he bent her fingers backwards.

The pancake-faced woman grimaced in pain, and the smile on her face fell. She asked two servants to hold the door together, and then spoke in a strange tone, "It is because you are a widow that the third son of the Luo family followed the custom to give you a small betrothal gift."

"A plucked phoenix, a downtrodden tiger, don't blame me for speaking harshly, I have seen many matchmakers like you. The fact that the Third Young Master of the Luo Family is willing to ask for a small betrothal gift is already a great courtesy and respect. Why do you have to keep up your old airs? When you are old and ugly, you won't even have the chance to do the same thing again!"

He Yue moved away a little, fearing that her face would be covered with spit. She lifted her skirt slightly and kicked the round-faced woman hard in the abdomen!

"Ouch!" The big-faced woman was kicked to the ground unexpectedly. Relying on her own advantage, she rolled several times before stopping, with her buttocks facing the sky and her body lying on the ground like a turtle.

He Yue completely destroyed the image of a melancholy and weak person that she had worked so hard to establish in the village, "Why are you being so arrogant? I'm just a lunatic!"

"I am a person who was driven crazy by this nunnery. Take away the small betrothal gift you brought." He Yue raised her eyebrows and pointed in the direction of the village.

Then He Yue said one sentence after another, "The weak are afraid of the strong, and the strong are afraid of the desperate. If any of you hinder me from remaining a widow for my late husband, I can just go and ask for a talisman to worship the god of evil spirits, and see who kills who first!"

Since there are people who worship righteous gods, there are naturally people who worship evil gods. However, those things are very sinister. It is said that they can shorten one's lifespan in this life and the blessings in the next life. People who value life and believe in righteous gods dare not even touch them, and even listening to them will dirty their ears.

Without waiting for the round-faced old woman to turn over, He Yue suddenly paced back and forth in a daze, her teeth clenched tightly, her pretty face covered with gloom, her brows furrowed, "No! I need to check my package, I remember... I remember..."

Remember what?! The two servants swallowed their saliva and looked at each other. Could it be a talisman?

The two of them quickly helped the pancake-faced woman to turn over, and then the three of them left quickly. Oh! They met a madman!

He Yue was able to control her emotions, and her charming face was very calm. "Let's go eat."

When she turned around, she saw Ning Rushong and Guard Zhang looking at her from a distance. Guard Zhang's eyes widened. The woman the prince likes is different!

He Yue stood there in a daze, her face instantly red, and she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

Oh my God!
