The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Chapter 414: Don’t listen, just follow your lead

At this time, smoke was rising from the Beishan mansion. Upon hearing the order, all the pots and stoves in the kitchen had been lit. The water had been boiling for a long time, and the temperature in the kitchen kept rising, making it impossible to stay there.

All the cooks in the mansion squatted under the eaves, fanning themselves with palm-leaf fans, waiting for the next instruction in confusion.

But after waiting for a long time, the water in the pot was almost boiled away, and there was still no instruction for the next step.

In this hot weather, they had to go into the kitchen to add firewood and water, so their tempers were inevitably a little bad. When they saw their personal guards coming over to order ice-brewed dumplings, the cooks wanted to pour pots of hot water on their faces.

"Lei Qi, the hot water has already boiled away. Why don't you tell us what you want us to do? Are you deliberately messing around because you think we have too much free time?"

Lei Qi had a cold face as usual and only said one sentence, "This is the order of the Marquis, and they, as servants, just need to follow it."

The cooks were furious, but they dared not say anything until Lei Qi left the kitchen, then they started to curse and said, "Damn it, could it be that this poor brain function can be spread like a plague?"

The butler, who had just woken up from a nap, came over at this moment. He coughed in displeasure when he heard what the cook said. If he heard someone talking nonsense about the master in the Marquis's mansion, he would definitely drag him away and beat him with a stick.

But now the master of Beishan Mansion hates corporal punishment the most, but the skills of torturing people are not much worse than corporal punishment.

"Go to the study to find a copy of the Book of Changes. I will come to test you tomorrow." The butler said and left, forgetting that he came here to find some food to cool off.

The cook held his head in his hands and wanted to cry without tears. For a servant who had only learned a few words, memorizing the text was more painful than being beaten with a stick.

"The guy who was punished last time was not supposed to recite the Three Character Classic, but why is it that I am reciting the I Ching? What the hell is that and how many characters are there in it?"

The other cooks and servants had never had the chance to see any books other than entry-level ones like Thousand Character Classic and Three Character Classic, and they all shook their heads helplessly.

Cook: “…” Damn it, it’s just that the fire is a little hotter. As a cook, shouldn’t he be used to it? So what’s wrong with him today that he’s so rude?

The housekeeper, who had not had any food to relieve the heat, was thinking that if the cook wanted to memorize the Book of Changes, it would take at least ten days or half a month, otherwise he could just let him memorize the first two pages tomorrow.

However, this kind of thing cannot be completely tolerated. If you memorize it bit by bit, you will eventually be able to memorize it all.

Thinking of this, the butler felt that this marquis was really good at torturing people. He punished his servants by making them recite books, and the accounting office by making them chop firewood and carry manure. If the personal guards made mistakes, he would go to the kitchen to learn how to cook from the chef, and if they failed, they would eat the food themselves, until they made something that satisfied the marquis.

You should know that in order to make a sweet and sour fish, Lei Twelve went to the river to catch fish in the middle of the night, but when he failed, he ate the fish himself and had diarrhea for two days.

It took him seven or eight days to finally learn how to cook this dish, but Lei Twelve, who had never been picky about food, felt like vomiting whenever he saw fish. The housekeeper was afraid that if he made the same mistake a few more times, he would be tortured to the point of not being able to eat anymore.

The butler was still daydreaming when he saw two people sitting in the pavilion. His brows furrowed instantly, and he quickly walked to Lei Yi's side and asked in a low voice, "How did they get in?"

"The Marquis's order." Lei glanced at the old butler and spoke in a firm tone.

The old butler frowned, a little angry that these guards didn't listen to him, and his voice unconsciously raised a few notes: "Didn't I say that no one is allowed to enter or leave the mansion until the epidemic is over?"

Lei Yi didn't even look at the butler again, and said the same thing as before: "The Marquis's order."

The old housekeeper became even angrier, pointing at Lei Yi's nose and scolding: "My Lord, my Lord, my Lord is not in the right place, are your brains also just for show? Do you know what the situation is outside? Just let them in. If they are infected with the disease, and you listen to my Lord, wouldn't that harm my Lord?"

Lei Yi: “…” So annoying.

Don’t listen, just let him recite the scriptures alone.

"Your Majesty has not had any contact with them yet, right? If not, please ask them to leave immediately. And those who have had contact with them should not get close to Your Majesty for the time being."

The benefactor has not arrived yet, but they are driving him away. This is not even killing the donkey after it has done its job. It is more like killing the donkey before it even gets to the mill.

Lei Yi: "Butler, we are only the general's personal guards and we only obey the orders of the general."

The butler has worked in the Marquis's Mansion for decades. This is the first time since he became the butler that he has been treated with disrespect by other servants. He feels a little embarrassed, but he still has to perform his duties as a butler.

"Lei Yi, our original intention was for the Marquis. Everyone knows the Marquis's current situation. The Marquis is willing to contact Brother Chu, and I would not say anything even if he took away a lot of treasures. But what is the situation now? The epidemic can take lives. How can you let them come in and take advantage of you at this time?"

Lei Yi: “…” It’s really annoying.

Don’t listen, just let him recite.

Chu Xiao in the pavilion had already noticed the situation here and was listening attentively to the small talk. When he heard the housekeeper's evaluation of him, he curled his lips and said, "I have long felt that this old man looks down on me."

Yan Zhenshen raised his eyes slightly, glanced in the direction of the housekeeper, then retracted his gaze, scooped a dumpling with a spoon and fed it to the pouting husband: "Then we don't like him either."

Yan Zhenshen was a person who really didn't know how to calm people down. If his younger brothers and sisters were being pretentious with him, he would have taught them a lesson a long time ago. But the person in front of him was his husband, so teaching him a lesson was impossible. He could only go along with what he said.

What Chu Xiao liked most was his brother Shen's slightly clumsy but completely on his side attitude. He had just pretended to be angry, but now he immediately laughed.

"Hey, how can you still smile so happily when someone scolds you?"

Chu Xiao was startled again by the sudden appearance of the muscular man, and asked the same question he had asked before: "How did you get in?"

The muscular man was carrying a wild boar on his shoulders, but he looked extremely relaxed. He even had one hand free to point in the direction of the gate: "I came in through the gate, but the gap they left was too small, so I jumped in."

"Then why didn't anyone follow you in?" Chu Xiao looked around in confusion. Indeed, not a single guard followed him.

The tough guy tilted his head: "Are you stupid? I'm not from this time and space, why should I let others see me? It's so troublesome to explain."

Chu Xiao: “…” Damn, the administrator actually has this skill.

But that's not right, Chu Xiao quickly looked at his brother Shen: "Can you see the macho man?"

Yan Zhenshen nodded. Perhaps he had noticed the changed appearance of this muscular man earlier than his husband. However, before he could remind Chu Xiao, this guy had already spoken first, which scared his husband.
