The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter
Chapter 41: Having a Mother's Family
Chu Xiao kept two chickens, and asked you, Yan Zhenshen, to sell the others.
Chu Xiao came to the county town this time not just to sell wild animals. He still remembered that the last time he went to the yamen, Lu Zhubu said that he would come to the wedding to attend his wedding.
Although the position of Zhubu is not high, he is still an important figure in the eyes of the farmers. If Zhubu Lu can really go, the gossip in the village will not be so harsh.
The abacus clattered loudly.
The two men arrived at the county government office and when they walked to the side door, they found that the gatekeeper was the same one as last time. What a coincidence.
The bailiff also recognized the two men. After all, there were only a few people over eight feet tall in the entire Anning County, so they were naturally very impressive.
"What are you two here for today?" the bailiff asked casually.
"The last time I came to get the marriage certificate, Master Lu took good care of me. Now we are getting married soon, so I came to thank you." Chu Xiao said as he took some bamboo shoots he had dug in the past two days from his backpack: "I dug them myself, so I'll go back and try some."
When Chu Xiao came out, he tied the bamboo shoots into bundles with dry rattan. The white and green bamboo shoots were neatly arranged in a bunch, which looked quite beautiful.
Bamboo shoots are certainly not a rare thing in the countryside, but in the county town, everything from food to drink to toilet use costs money. It’s not about the value of the thing, but the thought behind it. Of course, the most important thing is not to miss it.
The bailiff accepted it happily and said a few words of congratulations and blessings on the wedding.
After entering the side door, they saw Lu Zhubu sitting at the door basking in the sun, and the two of them immediately bowed and greeted him.
Master Lu led them into the room, asked them to sit down, and had someone pour them tea. This was a treatment they didn't receive last time they came.
"Have you two set a date for your wedding?" Zhubu Lu asked first.
"Yes, we'll be getting married in five days. A few days ago, Brother Shen went up the mountain to hunt some wild game for the banquet. I specially picked the biggest and fattest pheasant for Grandpa Lu to taste." Chu Xiao said as he took out the tied-up pheasant from the backpack.
"Grandpa Lu, do you think he's fat?"
Lu Zhubu smiled and nodded. He was not particularly interested in the wild animal, but was happy that the other person was willing to buy it. "It will cost at least a hundred coins to sell. You need money to hold a banquet, so you can't take it, old man."
Chu Xiao put the pheasant back into the backpack and started to act cute: "My brother Shen is very capable. He killed two wild goats and sold them for several taels of silver. The money is definitely enough for the banquet. This is a fat and big pheasant that I carefully selected. If Grandpa Lu doesn't want it, I selected it for nothing."
"Oh?" Lu Zhubu was amused by him, "How did you choose so carefully?"
Chu Xiao said: "Pick the heaviest ones, the ones with the best-looking feathers, and the ones that particularly suit your eyes."
"Then you really have a good heart." Although Lu Zhubu didn't show it on his face, he was extremely happy in his heart.
The last time I saw this child, he was still a pitiful little thing, but now he has turned into a clever little boy. It seems that the Yan family is really good, as they have made little brother Chu so cheerful in just a few days.
Chu Xiao smiled innocently, and then took out a few bundles of bamboo shoots, "Grandpa Lu, I dug these, they are delicious."
Lu Zhubu picked it up and looked at it, then nodded: "This bamboo shoot is very tender. My grandson is picky about food in hot weather, so I will go back and stew bamboo shoots with pheasant tonight."
After they chatted for a few more minutes, Chu Xiao asked to leave.
But Master Lu stopped him, took out his money bag, took out two strings of copper coins, and said, "Brother Chu, Grandpa Lu appreciates your kindness. Please accept the money and consider it as bought by Grandpa Lu."
Chu Xiao was stunned for a moment, but he felt more favorable towards Lu Zhubu's behavior. If he had said that he wanted to use Lu Zhubu's identity to shut the villagers up, now he thought that this old man was quite nice.
He said quickly, "Grandpa Lu, I'll be honest with you. There are a lot of gossips in the village about my marriage with Brother Shen. My main purpose today is to get married. I want you to help me calm down the situation. I admit that my intention in giving you something is not pure enough. Grandpa Lu, you won't be angry, right?"
Lu Zhubu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You, you, your mind is not simple, but you are simple, you just said it out."
Chu Xiao pretended to be embarrassed and lowered her head, and even pulled Yan Zhenshen's sleeve, as if asking her man for help.
Yan Zhenshen smiled and shook his head, "Master Lu, Brother Xiao is young and has simple ideas. Last time he went back, he said that you are kind and easy to talk to. If he had a grandfather like you, he would not be bullied."
"This Xiao brother." Lu Zhubu smiled and shook his head. He was indeed still a child.
If someone else said this to Lu Zhubu, it would be considered as flattery, but Yan Zhenshen was obviously a man of few words, so it would not be easy for him to flatter him.
"Since you say so, I will accept the gift." Lu Zhubu added, "On the day when Xiao Ge'er got married, I was his maiden family member. If you bully him in the future, I will support him."
"Thank you, Grandpa Lu." Chu Xiao smiled and pulled the old man's arm, looking up at Yan Zhenshen and said, "Did you hear that? I also have someone backing me up."
"Hahaha." Lu Zhubu tapped him on the forehead twice: "You little bastard."
"Hehe, Grandpa, you're so nice." Chu Xiao continued to act cute.
The two of them didn't stay long, after all, Chief Lu still had official business to attend to.
After leaving the government office, Chu Xiao rubbed his cheeks, and smiled a little stiffly. "Brother Shen, I found that you are a black-bellied type. You usually keep silent, but once you open your mouth, you will be a king bomb. And why do you always hit the point? It's amazing."
"Sinister?" Yan Zhenshen didn't understand the word, but he knew what Chu Xiao meant. He meant that every time this person couldn't make up a story, he would come to smooth things over. "I can only guess what you are thinking."
Chu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "How did you guess? Didn't I act badly?"
"At least Master Lu likes you very much." Yan Zhenshen didn't answer.
"What about you? Do you like me?"
Yan Zhenshen blushed a little, but still replied: "I like it."
Chu Xiao smiled: "That's right, I learned the essence of this after observing Xiao Bei for many days. Children who are well-behaved, cute and don't lie are the most lovable."
Yan Zhenshen did not comment.
The two of them left East Street and went to Tong Ren Tang. As soon as they walked in, they saw people coming and going in the clinic, it was very lively.
The medicine boy was very happy to see the two of them, and shouted to Doctor Hu: "Master, Brother Chu is here."
Doctor Hu was taking a patient's pulse. He looked over, smiled, nodded, and asked the pharmacist to take the patient into the inner room.
After waiting for about a cup of tea, Doctor Hu walked in with a smile. Chu Xiao knew he was busy, so he explained his purpose directly: "Doctor Hu, Brother Shen and I are getting married in five days. I came here to invite you, but seeing that your business is so good, I won't waste your time. I brought a pheasant and bamboo shoots for you to try."
"Getting married?" Doctor Hu did not go to see the pheasant, but asked in surprise: "You are getting married to Hunter Yan? Isn't your fiancé Mr. Zhang?"
Chu Xiao had a constipated expression on his face. How long had it been since Doctor Hu had updated his news? It was still stuck in the first few chapters?
