Verse 16 is true

She opened the bag and poured its contents onto the table—there wasn't much in it, mostly a cleverly folded white cloak, a few pieces of vellum, and a dark green stone.

Ashrufat's eyes widened, staring at the stone. In last night's dream, he had just seen it.

"By the time we found you lying in the wild, all you had was this little bag. "Aunt Mary didn't notice Ashrufat, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. She busily shook off the white cloak.

The material of the cloak is very strange, although it is white, but the white is difficult to describe. It is neither the milky white of milk, nor the greasy white of gypsum, nor the white of fat, but another kind of translucent white. There's a big difference between a closer look and a rough look. In addition, the mantle feels very silky and soft to the touch, and it does not look like a fabric made by human hands at all.

Eshurufat struggled to withdraw his gaze from the green stone and examine the cloak carefully. As he stroked it gently, he realized that he had carefully stroked the cloak. Because although he has no memory, his body still remembers this silky touch.

"This should be a cape made by elves. Aunt Mary explained. Ashrufat knew that if this cloak was really an elven product, it was really worth a lot of money, no wonder it was stored in a small bag by his past self instead of draped over his body.

"And these are a few more. Aunt Mary spread out the sheets of vellum. Ashrufat recognized it as a rare and delicate leather paper. This paper is very easy to preserve, has a very good waterproof ability and a certain degree of fire resistance. Even if it is soaked in water for a long time, or if it falls into a fire for a short time, the paper will remain intact. Typically, only extremely important documents are used on this paper.

"This is ......," Ashruphat looked at the words and seals on it with some surprise.

"Certificates of deposit from the Chamber of Commerce. Aunt Mary said. She pointed to the seal on the deposit slip, which was the stamp of the famous Pierce Chamber of Commerce. Ashruphat looked at the other three documents, each stamped with a well-known chamber of commerce in the Anthropocene realm. "But it should be fake. ”

"Fake ......" Ashruphat stared at a piece of vellum for a few moments before looking up at Aunt Mary.

"I think it's fake. Aunt Mary said, pointing to the words on a deposit slip. "This is a deposit certificate that is paid on demand, and only recognizes the deposit receipt and does not recognize the original owner. Note, however, that it is a deposit with no interest. Look at the number. She pointed her finger at the number that was exaggerated enough to make people feel dizzy. "I don't think there are many people in this world who have so much money. If there really is a person with so much money, that person is either an extremely wealthy nobleman or an extremely successful businessman. Either way, there's no need for them to keep their money in the chamber of commerce. Speaking of safety, it is safer to hide the gold in some secret vault than the Chamber of Commerce, because the Chamber of Commerce will inevitably make relevant records - one more person knows the Dao, the more danger there is, let alone one more Chamber of Commerce, hundreds or thousands of people know the Dao. In terms of profits, not to mention complex business investments, you can get a huge amount of income just by taking out money and lending. But the tycoon did not want to protect his property, and he did not want to use the money to earn interest...... Either he's a fool, or it's a fake. ”

Ashrufat had no objection to Aunt Mary's view.

"If it's not a private certificate of deposit, there's only one possibility, and it's a commercial paper for procurement. But look at the paper and the words on it...... To put it mildly, this document is probably decades old. No business event wastes so much time. Even if there really was a foolish robber who got the paper by robbing it halfway, the deposit slip would have been reported lost by now. ”

"But......" Ashrufat hesitated. Since he used to keep this thing firmly close to his body, there should be some reason.

"I have to admit it, though, it's very delicately made. Although it is fake, it is no different from the real thing in terms of pure appearance. Aunt Mary said. "If you use it as a prop, it's a really nice thing. ”

"Props?"

"Let's say a scam, a scam with no malicious intent. Aunt Mary's smile was a little ambiguous. "When a fiancé from afar takes out this kind of deposit receipt and takes out four copies at a time, then who dares to look down on him and point fingers at him?"

Aunt Mary's reasoning was rigorous and logical, and Aehuruphat felt that he had nothing to say.

Aunt Mary sat down, and put the contents of the pouch back into the pouch, including the cloak, the deposit slip, and the green stone.

"Ashrufat. Aunt Mary noticed that Ashrufat's expression was a little sluggish, and suddenly her voice changed. "Are you feeling a little dazed right now?"

Ashrufat nodded. "The doctor said to me," he said slowly. "There's a good chance I'll never get my memory back. He said that there was no solution to it, and that he could only pray for the blessings of the gods. So I'm ...... now I feel like there's a sense of unreality. It seems that nothing has anything to do with me, and I don't know what to do. ”

"And what about the goal I just said?" asked Aunt Mary with a smile.

"I don't want to lie to you, but Auntie...... Even though you said that, I still think it'......"

"Ashrufat, I actually understand the confusion in your heart. Aunt Mary sighed with a very sincere attitude. "Actually, after my first husband died, I felt the same way. I don't know what to do, I don't know where I'm going. My original home and family were gone, and I felt that I was left alone, very lonely. In my feelings, others are respectful of me, and some people even curse me behind my back...... For a long time, I lived on heavy drinking. It was a terrible feeling. She leaned back hard in her chair. "Actually, think about it, that time, I was similar to you. Although I keep my memories, everything in my past has been destroyed. My life, my future, and my original happiness have all been burned, and although I remember them all, maybe I would be happier if I lost my memory. ”

Eshurufat was actually a little curious about what had happened to Aunt Mary's past.

"Human beings cannot be alone. Aunt Mary sat up straight again and said to Ashrufat. "If a person wanders around without any concerns, he may seem to be free, but in fact he is pitiful. There is no one to comfort him when he is sad, no one to accompany him when he is lonely, and no one to encourage him when he is in trouble. His joy, his joy, his excitement are shared, and his sorrow, anger, and hatred are shared...... In this case, it's normal to be confused. Because no matter what you do, it doesn't seem to make sense. Still," she paused. "You're luckier than I am, Ashrufat. It took me a long time to find a place to accommodate me, and you don't need to waste that time. ”

"I ......"

"You have a home, right here, right at your feet. You have two wives, and that is the woman who is destined to share with you for the rest of her life. They're ...... now. It's just not ready to accept you yet. Aunt Mary stared at Aerufat's face. "Take good care of them and don't let them get hurt. ”

After saying this, she suddenly stood up. "I'll take my leave. She said so, and walked away quickly.

The old woman's movements were fast, and while Ashrufat was still in a daze in the room, she had already reached the gate of the manor. Her carriage and two sisters were waiting for her here.

"Auntie, why did you ...... so suddenly," Hoshimi asked.

"I've told you about my departure. The time is undecided, but it is in the near future. Aunt Mary replied. "I'm mainly here to see Ashrufat this time. ”

"Why do you want to see him?" Xingke was a little puzzled.

"For you two silly girls, of course!" sighed Aunt Mary. "He's very smart, I don't know if I can fool him...... Listen, you two girls, and now you've got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ”

"Good chance?" the two sisters looked at each other, both with the same confusion in their eyes.

"It's a man! Man! Listen to me, this Ashrufat is not an ordinary man, he is a ...... Let's put it this way, you're so lucky! It's like the lucky star is possessed! I've made up a lie that I didn't intend to put in the willows...... Count the luck of the two of you, if I were thirty years younger, the two of you would only deserve to be the second and third juniors!"

"But...... Aunt...... Didn't you say before that we should look at the property......"

"Before was before, now is now. Aunt Mary waved her hand impatiently. "Don't worry about those little things. The key now is not to miss this opportunity. Don't put on a noble and cold face to show people! Be like a lady! If you lose him because of your stupidity, then you will lose the greatest opportunity of your life. There's never going to be that kind of good luck again! You know?"

She sighed softly. It can be seen that the two sisters, especially Xingke, who is the elder sister, are very unimpressed by what she said just now, but they dare not question it because of politeness. Hoshimi is a little better, but it's also limited. They may be young, but they are still inexperienced in this area. Then again, if they were experienced in this area, they might not need to pick that man back at all.

"I've done everything I had to do, below...... It's up to you. She sighed again. "I'm still at home waiting for news, and I'll leave as soon as it arrives. Let me warn you first, you may be in trouble. ”

"What kind of trouble. ”

"I don't know. But it's definitely not as easy as having one more suitor. I can only make a preliminary estimate at this time...... Those guys might do something to you while I'm out of the house. She paused. "But since they only dare to do it in my absence, it means that they should not know your secrets. If I'm not mistaken, this attack should come from the monetary side. I've entrusted Sheriff Falord to keep an eye on ...... But the trouble is that there are rumors that he will be transferred in the near future. If this really happens...... Then you can't count on him to help. ”

Aunt Mary thought for a moment. "Also, be sure to watch out for your secrets. You must not be allowed to discover your secrets, and if there is any room for redemption in other things, then even I can't do anything about it. In recent years, the power of the Church of the Gods of the Star Domain has increased significantly in the area of Brasian City, and more than one new church has been built...... If in the past it was possible to get by, now things are much more troublesome. I'm not complaining, but I'm reminding you that your own safety comes first. ”

"The last thing. Tomorrow you two will accompany Ashruphat around your land. Let him know about you. Aunt Mary said. After saying this, she boarded her carriage.

"Auntie, if we're really in big trouble, how should we contact you?" Xingke said suddenly.

"No need to contact. I can't get back even if I contact him...... You can find a solution to Ashrufat, and he should be able to solve your problems. ”

With the sound of the coachman's whip, the carriage departed along the main road. After the carriage had run some distance, the servant poked his head into the carriage.

"Madam, what did you just say that? After all, that Ashrufat was only a newcomer, and he didn't know anyone here, so he ......."

"It's nothing else. "Aunt Mary, or Countess Marianne, suddenly smiled ambiguously. "It's because he already has that ability. Hey, those two little girls are really lucky......"
