The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Bai Hao was dumbfounded and didn't understand. He thought Qiao Qingyun really wanted to go to the battlefield as soon as possible. He knew Lei Huo also hoped so, so he raised his glass again and said sincerely, "Thank you."

Qiao Qingyun was stunned for a moment, then he smiled again: "You're welcome."

But as the Marquis of Zunyuan, Lei Huo could understand what Qiao Qingyun meant. What about the border soldiers waiting for his return? It was obvious that his words meant that he should think clearly and leave as soon as possible.

But he couldn't show up at this moment, otherwise Qiao Qingyun would definitely find more problems.

The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests. Yan Zhenshen could drink quite a bit, but he didn't dare drink too much, so he didn't get drunk.

On the other hand, Wang Wu and his group of young men started out by drinking a few glasses normally, then started playing finger-guessing games, and ended up being drunk one by one.

It was not realistic to send them back, so they were all helped to Yan Zhen’s north room and slept in rows.

Qiao Qingyun helped to clear the table, and from time to time he glanced at Bai Hao who was muttering to the bolt at the door and smiling foolishly.

He couldn't guess the specific situation, but at least he was sure that this was not Lei Huo himself. After all, this character didn't look like he had a broken brain, but more like...

Chu Xiao came from the kitchen to take the remaining dishes to wash. Seeing Qiao Qingyun staring at Bai Hao, the corners of his mouth twitched: "Didn't he go to the house to help?"

Qiao Qingyun did not answer this question, but looked at Chu Xiao very seriously: "Is he... sure there is no problem?"

"Ah?" Chu Xiao roughly knew what Qiao Qingyun was talking about, so he smiled and replied, "I don't know the real Zunyuan Hou, but at least this one is very simple."

"Yes." This man's innocence was probably obvious to everyone, and Qiao Qingyun would not refute this. "Zunyuan Hou went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, became a general of the Light Cavalry Battalion at the age of sixteen, led the charge army at the age of twenty-five, and attacked the rear of the enemy camp with five hundred cavalrymen. At the age of twenty-two, he succeeded his father, the Marquis, and the following year, because of his outstanding military exploits, he became the general who commanded an army of two hundred thousand in the northwest."

"Last autumn, Zunyuan Hou attacked the nearest tribe. He wanted to win a victory to shock Horqin and let the soldiers spend a peaceful year. But who would have thought that the snow came too early, the grain production in the northwest decreased, and Horqin even froze many cattle and sheep to death."

"Although there have been constant frictions between the two countries over the past decade, last year was the most brutal battle."

Qiao Qingyun paused for a moment before continuing, "I admire Lei Huo, but he has been on the battlefield for fifteen years. Not to mention how much the rulers of Horqin hate him, even many people in Daxia want to kill him. If we want to live a peaceful life, we should not have too much contact with such people."

If it were someone else, Qiao Qingyun would not have said it so bluntly, but after such a long period of contact, he has come to understand Chu Xiao a little. His brain is quick to react, but not smooth enough. He can think a little bit about how he deals with people, but mostly relies on his heart.

There is only what he wants and what he doesn't want, not what he dares and what he doesn't dare to do.

He even suspected that if Chu Xiao had long-term contact with the current Zunyuan Hou, and one day this man wanted to take him to the battlefield to fight, Chu Xiao would be so excited that he would follow him wherever he wanted.

"Is it dangerous to my family?"

"Probably not for now." Qiao Qingyun tapped his fingers habitually on Zhuo Yan's edge. "In just three months, nearly a thousand outsiders have moved into Anning Town, and almost all the guards have been replaced. Now this place is an iron barrel. As long as those who want to take action are not stupid, there will be no big moves in the near future, unless..."

"Unless what?" Chu Xiao listened to Qiao Qingyun's analysis very carefully. He felt like his leader assigned them mission objectives every time he went on a mission.

"Unless he commits suicide by leaving the safe zone that Lu Zhicheng has set for him."

"Ah." Chu Xiao didn't know how big this safety zone was, but at least Anning Village was definitely included in it. After all, this was the good thing about the village. If there were outsiders appearing in the village frequently and the villagers saw them, they would definitely talk a lot and ask about it, and then everyone would know that there were outsiders.

This is why the guards of Beishan Mansion will not go out casually. Even if they go out, they will be followed by servants who have been here for a long time. When acquaintances lead strangers, they will all become familiar faces after a long time.

Yan Zhenshen fetched water from the backyard and brought it in. In autumn, his hands always felt cold when he used well water directly, so he had to add some hot water from the pot to take a bath.

"Should we send him back?" Seeing the person squatting at the door, I always felt that it was not good for them to treat him so casually.

Chu Xiao hesitated and shook his head. After all, he was a man of status. If his subordinates saw him like this, even if Bai Hao wanted to return the body to Lei Huo, Lei Huo would not have the face to accept it.

"Go to the west room in the courtyard. I need to have a good talk with him when he wakes up. Don't come to our house for no reason. It will have a bad influence."

The main reason was that he was afraid that outsiders would think they were too familiar with him. If they failed to assassinate the general, what would happen if they ran to his house and caused trouble?

Anyway, after listening to what Qiao Qingyun said, Chu Xiao felt that this was very possible. He immediately felt that Bai Hao was also an ignorant person. Why was he running around like a moving target? Wouldn't it be better for him to just hide in his little dark room?

However, Chu Xiao could more or less understand Bai Hao's idea. He classified the abnormalities into one category. To him, he and himself were time travelers, and all other people were natives.

As different species who have traveled together, they should stick together and help each other.

Chu Xiao felt more helpless than happy about this idea. He wanted to live a peaceful and fulfilling life. The days like the past year or so were what he longed for, so he didn't want his peace to be disturbed at all.

Yan Zhenshen poured the water into the water tank, and together with Qiao Qingyun, helped the person to the west room.

Except for those who drank too much, everyone else had gone back. Chu Xiao carried the bowl into the kitchen, and Zhao Guizhi asked, "Did you eat just now? I saw you were busy feeding Dongdong."

Chu Xiao smiled and said, "Luo Ge'er can't eat peacefully while holding the child. I'll help take care of him for a while so that he can eat peacefully."

Even though Wang Wu's mother dotes on her eldest grandson and calls him "grandson" all the time every day, Luo Ge'er said that her mother doesn't help with taking care of him when it comes to eating and sleeping.

Luo Ge'er didn't complain about this. After all, that was how things were in the village, and Wang Wu Niang was actually much better off than other families.

But this person just cannot be compared. If everyone were to compare her with Zhao Guizhi, I'm afraid all the wives and husbands in the surrounding villages would be in an uproar.

Zhao Guizhi smiled and opened the lid of the pot next to her: "I knew that there would always be people who were not full, so I specially left some chicken and old duck soup to heat up the leftover buns from yesterday."

Then she went to ask Yan Sanmei who was washing dishes: "Sanmei, do you want to eat?"

"No, I'll eat a mooncake later." The food today was large in quantity, so she was quite full.

Just at this time, Yan Zhenshen and Qiao Qingyun came over after sending the people into the west room, and Zhao Guizhi asked a question.

Yan Zhenshen smiled and said, "Then I'll eat something too. I didn't eat anything because of Wang Wu's disturbance."

Qiao Qingyun also nodded. He was so focused on drinking with Lei Huo that he didn't even notice when Yan Zhennan drank too much. Naturally, he didn't even think about eating. At this moment, he actually felt a little hungry.
