Xu Jing wanted to move her residence to the county town, a thought that occurred to her the day she returned from the government office.
Although Hutou Village is not far from the county town, and the villagers are mostly honest and kindhearted aside from the Peng Family, the village is ultimately outside the town, and its security is not as good as in the county, so Xu Jing felt uneasy living there.
In fact, these past few nights, she had been sleeping with a dagger hidden under her pillow and one hand gripping the dagger to fall asleep.
There is a curfew in the county; the city gates are closed at night, and there are regular patrols, making it much safer than the village.
Therefore, on the first day of her visit to the county town to inspect the situation, she asked Mrs. Fang to introduce a trustworthy broker to help them find a few safe and comfortable places to live.
