Being able to enter the hall to shelter from the rain is the best news in a thunderstorm day with heavy rain.

The passers-by who were hiding under the shelter from the rain and were about to drench all looked at Chen Yuan with envy.

Chen Yuan knows that the feudal society with distinct classes is very cruel. When she was in the county government, she actually rarely had the opportunity for such a strong comparison. Today, she experienced it at close range.

Ordinary people are not even qualified to enter the stables of the post station to avoid the rain.

It is better to have a future society where everyone is equal.

Of course Chen Yuan was happy that she could go in to shelter from the rain, but she couldn't be complacent about it, only a sense of her own insignificance and powerlessness came to her heart.

Even if she wants to help, she can't change the feudal hierarchy and thinking by herself.

Shui Sheng jumped into the carriage, lightly waved the whip and drove the horse towards the post station.

A man in coir raincoats ran over, "My lord, girl, my wife is still in confinement, if she hadn't gone home to go to the funeral, she wouldn't be running around at this moment, and she was caught in the wind and cold, can you let my wife borrow the girl's carriage, Take shelter from the rain in the official stables?"

"Junior Sister, we..."

Chen Yuan pressed Shui Sheng's hand, preventing the simple and kind-hearted Shui Sheng from begging her for help, and asked, "Brother, just now in the station, why did the station guard reject other people who took shelter from the rain?"

Shui Sheng will not hide from Chen Yuan, and will tell the situation inside one by one.

The more she listened, the more Chen Yuan felt something was wrong.

Liu Yanchun told her that there will be big moves on the border recently.

There were at least two teams from the capital in the official post, not including the other two tables who did not speak and did not know their identities.

The father of that Yazhu girl used to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and now he was relegated to Lingnan. Who knows if he was really relegated, or what did he do with the emperor's secret order?

And the girl who opened her mouth and kept her mouth shut was the witty girl who showed off her extraordinary background in this wilderness official post in Nanling. Her cousin was also sent to Lingnan by the emperor, and Jin Yiwei was also sent to escort her all the way.

Chen Yuan pondered.

The boy in coir raincoat wiped the rainwater off his face, and he could tell that among the two, it was the woman who called the shots, nervously waiting for Chen Yuan's reaction.

"I'm not a family member of an official. I'm just a job post. I took the recommendation letter from the county magistrate to apply for the job. I was able to enter the hall of the post station to hide from the rain. It's because the post station took care of me."

Chen Yuan didn't want to provoke resentment from others for no reason, she had to explain the fact of her humble status, lest others think she was capable of not helping.

"Brother just entered the post station, you should be more aware of the situation inside than I am. There are noble people inside that we can't compete with. If I let your wife get into my carriage and enter the stables to hide from the rain without the permission of the people inside, the consequences will not be good. I can afford it."

The servant even swallowed and said, "But my wife..."

Chen Yuan couldn't vouch for a group of people she didn't know, but she didn't care about it at all, and she couldn't bear it.

"Your wife is infected with wind-cold. It just so happens that I have prepared medicine to treat wind-cold here. After I go in, I will boil a pot of wind-cold medicine for your wife and deliver it to you. This is the only thing I can do to help your wife." .”

"Thank you girl, thank you girl!"

The boy was so excited that he knelt down on the muddy ground and kept bowing.

Where did Shui Sheng see this, and quickly jumped off the carriage to help him up.

The boy begged again, "Girl, my wife is still in confinement, if it doesn't rain, we can also cook Siwu stewed chicken soup by ourselves, can I trouble my wife to cook a pot of Siwu stewed chicken soup for my wife, medicine I will go to the carriage to get the bag and the hen, maybe mentioning the money will insult the girl’s kindness, but I will not be stingy in thanking my wife Fei!"

Sure enough, doing good deeds will be exploited.

Chen Yuan didn't want to bring something of unknown origin into the official post, but after thinking about it, she agreed, "Okay, go and get it."

The little brother thanked him again, turned around and ran to a carriage, said a few words to the people in the carriage, after a while, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a maid handed the things to the boy.

The boy hid the things under his coir raincoat, ran over, and handed them to Chen Yuan, who was picked up by Zeng Shuisheng and hung in the carriage.

"Girl, thank you."

The boy glanced at the medicine bag that would not take a shower and the hen that was ready to be plucked hanging in the carriage, and gratefully took out the two items from his sleeve.

An ingot of twelve taels of silver, and a lion dancing and picking pearls and green network made of red, yellow, blue, white and black threads, are vivid and very attractive.

"This is a thank you gift from my wife, the girl must accept it!"

"Then I'll be more respectful than obedient."

Chen Yuan didn't take it by herself, "Brother, help me put it away."

"Oh."

"Then please girl, I won't bother you here!"

The servant stepped aside tactfully, Shui Sheng put away his things, and drove the carriage into the post station.

After parking the carriage, Shui Sheng was about to untie the rope from the horse and take it to the stable.

Chen Yuan stopped her, "I'll do it."

"Junior Sister, you take grandfather in first, and I'll be fine."

"Senior brother, you listen to me. From now on, your hands are not allowed to touch the horse, the master, or your own face. After you put the things on the table, you change your clothes and use my hands. I washed my hands seven times before I made the soap.”

Zeng Shuisheng was dumbfounded, "Why?"

"There is no reason, listen to me, I will not harm you."

It's not that Chen Yuan is too lazy to explain, but she doesn't know if she is thinking too much.

If the person who blocked the way for help just now has no problem, then it is naturally the best.

If they have a problem, if she refuses to help, they will definitely find a way to carry out the task, either today or in the future, they must be targeting someone inside.

If that person had something to do with the border war, Chen Yuan was worried that he would have an accident. If that person had an accident, would it disrupt Liu's plan to inspect them?
So, she simply took the things that the other party handed over, and checked after a while to see if there was anything wrong with the other party.

Chen Yuan untied the horse and tied it to the stable.

He got into the carriage again, helped the master down, and brought him into the post hall.

Shui Sheng followed in with a chicken and a medicine bag, and when he saw the familiar postman behind the counter, he happily walked over, "Brother Postpost, when everyone runs out of stoves, I want to borrow the stove from the posthouse, can I?" ?”

The postman glanced at the medicine bag and the old hen in his hand, then at the old Zeng Chi, "Yes, I'll call you later."

The four tables in the hall of the station were full. The postman moved out the chairs at the counter and put them down behind Zeng Chi, "Sir, please sit down."

"Thank you, brother postman!"

Chen Yuan hurriedly supported Master to sit down.

No wonder Shui Sheng smiled when he mentioned this postman just now, this uncle is indeed a very good person.

Among the diners, some concentrated on eating, while others looked up at Chen Yuan and the others with vigilant, curious, and disdainful eyes.
