The guard spoke to Xiao Yunfei and the others, and one of them hurried in to report.
At this time, Zheng Qinggang was handling affairs in the county government office when he suddenly heard his guards hurriedly reporting.
"Sir, Xiao Yunfei and his wife and children have arrived at the county government office. Should we let him in now?"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Zheng exclaimed in surprise.
His face was full of disbelief, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground in shock.
The news he received was that Xiao Yunfei's family began to be exiled ten days ago. Only ten days had passed. It was impossible for Xiao Yunfei's family to come to him so quickly.
And from the moment he received the news, he didn't expect to see Xiao Yunfei again in this life.
The current exile rules were clearly aimed at Xiao Yunfei. In his opinion, this was a death sentence, and even Xiao Yunfei, who had never been defeated on the battlefield, could not escape this disaster.
But now the guard said.
"Sir, we have checked the supporting documents and there is no problem."
"How is this possible? He actually arrived alive?"
County Magistrate Zheng muttered to himself.
There must be something fishy about this matter.
He had met Xiao Yunfei from afar when he was working in the capital.
If someone is pretending, he will know it at a glance.
County Magistrate Zheng immediately ordered the guards.
"Quick, bring Xiao Yunfei and his family in!"
The guard took the order and left. Soon, he brought Xiao Yunfei and his family to the county government office.
In the county government office, County Magistrate Zheng sat behind the desk.
County Magistrate Zheng was skinny, and although his official uniform was still neat, it showed some signs of wear and tear.
At this moment, his thin face was full of doubts, his slender eyes flashed a shrewdness from time to time, and his sparse beard trembled slightly as he spoke.
When County Magistrate Zheng saw Xiao Yunfei and his family coming in, he was startled at first, and then a look of confirmation flashed in his eyes.
He recognized that the person in front of him was actually Xiao Yunfei.
Several years have passed since the last time they met, and the murderous aura around Xiao Yunfei is now even stronger than before.
Seeing the once famous general now in such a miserable state, County Magistrate Zheng's eyes flashed with complex emotions, including sympathy, awe, and a hint of relief.
Fortunately, he was only demoted to the remote Ningguta as a county magistrate, instead of becoming a criminal like Xiao Yunfei.
Alas, even General Xiao Yunfei has fallen to this point, which shows that this world is truly hopeless.
For people like Xiao Yunfei, not only will they not treat them as slaves, they will also give them certain courtesy and respect.
County Magistrate Zheng stood up and went to greet him in person.
"Are you really General Xiao Yunfei? You may not know this, but I once met you. Back then, you returned victorious, riding your steed majestically down the street. I never thought we'd meet here now. What a twist of fate."
County Magistrate Zheng sighed, looking very emotional.
Xiao Yunfei saw that the county magistrate recognized him and came to greet him personally as a courtesy, so he raised his hand and saluted.
"Yes, things are different now. I will have to trouble County Magistrate Zheng to take care of me from now on."
"Okay, okay. Are these your wife and children?"
County Magistrate Zheng looked at Su Miaomiao and the five children.
At this time, the children huddled behind Su Miaomiao, looking at County Magistrate Zheng timidly.
When Su Miaomiao heard the other party mentioned her, she curled the corners of her lips and nodded towards the county magistrate as a greeting.
Xiao Yunfei said.
"Yes, sir, there are quite a few of us, and there's also a doctor outside who came with us. Could you please give us a bigger house? It's too small and I'm worried it won't be big enough."
"You brought someone with you?"
"I met him on the road. I felt sorry for him, so I let him come with us. He's not a criminal, so he shouldn't have to do labor service, right?"
"Of course not, but this is the first time I've seen an exiled person bring people here. It's really rare."
County Magistrate Zheng said this, waving his hand.
"Forget it, forget it. Let's not talk about those little things for now. I can't believe you arrived within a month, and it only took ten days?"
"Sir, military orders are as heavy as a mountain. I dare not disobey them. For the lives of my relatives, I will march day and night without even a slack moment."
Seeing that Xiao Yunfei still didn't say how he got there, County Magistrate Zheng asked more directly.
"General Xiao, to be honest, everyone thought you would die on the road. I'm really curious, how did your family manage to get here so quickly?"
"Sir, we came here in a van."
Xiao Yunfei answered frankly.
He and Su Miaomiao had already discussed it. Instead of letting people guess, it would be better to tell the truth.
After they told it, they didn't have to hide it anymore and could use the van openly.
Xiao Yunfei had expected County Magistrate Zheng's reaction.
I saw the other party asking curiously.
"A van? What is that? I've never heard of it."
"Sir, this van is a magical means of transportation. It's extremely fast and can take us on a fast journey."
"Oh? There is such a magical thing. I really want to see it."
"It's not that simple, sir. If you'd like, I'll take you there to see it."
"Okay, then I'll go take a look."
County Magistrate Zheng immediately agreed.
He had to see what the van was, so that when his superiors asked about Xiao Yunfei's situation, he would be able to tell them everything.
County Magistrate Zheng followed Xiao Yunfei to where the van was parked. The moment he saw the van, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He walked around the van several times, and couldn't help but marvel at it.
