The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

After the experience of the bandits entering the village, the villagers were very grateful to the Beishan mansion. Almost all the women and young men who usually didn't come here came together with some local specialties.

These people are the benefactors who have saved their entire village. There is no reason for them not to be grateful.

It’s just that the villagers were too enthusiastic, making the two guards guarding the gate very uncomfortable.

"Auntie, auntie, we really don't need this, you can take it back."

The rejected Queen Mother could not just refuse something. "Don't be polite to me. You all look so skinny. You need to eat more. My house doesn't have much good food. We just have a lot of rabbits. You can come to my house anytime to catch some rabbits if you want to eat them."

This time, the Queen Mother was particularly generous. She caught six from home and stuffed them into half of the backpack.

Seeing that no one wanted it, he simply took it out and threw it into the yard. Fortunately, everyone's hands and feet were tied by Wang Wu, but they still struggled hard when they landed.

The other women followed suit and threw chickens and ducks in their hands. For a moment, the gate of the Beishan mansion was filled with the sounds of chickens, ducks and rabbits fluttering around.

"Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck."

This really made the guards feel helpless. When they caught that one, a few more came over here. When they caught this one, there were more over there. Each person only had two hands, so how could they catch so many?

While they were catching chickens and ducks, the women in the village moved eggs, fresh vegetables and some mountain products into people's yards.

They were all expressing their gratitude out of kindness, and the guards could not do anything to them, so they seemed a little helpless for a moment.

"Aunts and uncles, we have military discipline that forbids us from taking things from the people."

After all, once this happens, it will happen again. There are also soldiers on the border who are grateful for favors and take advantage of their fellow villagers again and again. Therefore, military discipline is strict and it is not allowed to take anything from the villagers at will.

But the women in the village refused to listen: "This is not a border, there is no army, how can there be any military discipline?"

"That's right. You kids saved the lives of our entire village. If we don't show any appreciation, it would be because we are immature. Auntie is already old enough, you can't let me be the ungrateful person."

"Yes, yes, that's right. If your leader won't allow it, you can take your aunt over and tell him that the child has been injured due to exerting too much effort, and he must be properly healed."

The village women kept talking about this and that, leaving the two guards guarding the gate at a loss as to what to do.

Fortunately, at this time the old butler heard the servant's report and hurried over.

Seeing the crowd of women at the gate, the old housekeeper's mouth twitched.

To be honest, he really didn't like dealing with women. Those he had met in the Marquis' Mansion before, no matter if they were the ladies of this family or that family, were all very troublesome.

Looking here, they are just a group of ignorant farm ladies, the kind that won't make any sense no matter how hard you try.

The old butler took a deep breath, but had to bite the bullet and find out what was going on.

"Everyone, everyone, let's stop arguing and talk it over. I'm the housekeeper of the mansion. Don't worry, tell me if you have any problems. I will do my best to help you solve them."

The old butler shouted these words at the top of his lungs, his voice even cracking a little at the end.

"Ahem, ahem, let's talk it over nicely."

There was silence at the door for a moment, and then the woman began to talk again.

"The housekeeper is the one who has the final say. We came here for no other reason than to thank these children and give them some nourishment. We can't just pretend we don't see the children bleeding for us. As the saying goes, if you want the horse to run, you have to feed it, right?"

Butler: “…” What are you talking about? The Marquis’ family is huge and powerful, could he really let these personal guards starve?

The guards looked at each other and nodded in agreement. They felt that what their aunt said was true.

If you want the horse to run, of course you have to feed it grass first. Think about how Lei Twelve woke up the housekeeper in the middle of the night a few days ago to ask for money and was scolded so hard that he spit blood.

Fortunately, Lei Er, a straightforward man, came over and said that if the knife didn’t hit him, he wouldn’t feel the pain, right?

He pretended to chop the old butler to pieces, saying that if they didn't give him money, then everyone would suffer together. Let's see who is more lucky, their personal guards or this old man.

Faced with such a fool, the old butler couldn't do anything to Qiao even if he wanted to. It is very likely that Lei Er will do what he says.

Swords and knives have no eyes. He didn't want to follow the Marquis to this remote place to recuperate for two years and then die here without even a chance to return home.

"Well, we have also heard that they have military discipline to abide by. We will not make things difficult for the children. This gift is a token of thanks from the villagers for taking good care of the children. Please accept it and let the children have a good meal."

The old butler agreed with his words, but he felt vomiting blood in his heart. These guards didn't need his care at all. He should be thankful that they didn't cause trouble for him.

"Okay, okay, these are all the kindness of the villagers. I would like to thank you on behalf of my personal guards."

The old butler didn't have as many concerns as the personal guards. Since it was delivered to him, there was no reason for him to refuse it.

Moreover, in his opinion, these villagers were really ignorant. Logically speaking, since their lord was a first-rank noble, these people should have come to visit him when he came to Anning Village.

Of course, they would not entertain you even if you came to their mansion, but it was their business to entertain you or not, and whether you came or not was a reflection of the attitude of the people of Anning Village.

But he never expected that after waiting for half a month, he didn't see a single shadow of a person. Not to mention the villagers of Anning Village, even the village chief didn't show up, and even the county magistrate of Anning Town hasn't come to visit him once.

But the housekeeper had no idea that the Marquis at that time was not Lei Huo at all. In order not to cause too much trouble, Lu Zhicheng had already instructed that no one should disturb the Marquis while he was recuperating.

Otherwise, how could this Beishan mansion be so quiet? I'm afraid the door threshold would have been trampled down by those officials and scholars who claim to have some status.

Finally, the person was sent away, and the old butler, who had a kind smile on his face before, immediately changed his expression.

"They are all fools who don't do anything without benefits. We have been here for almost a year, and only now do we realize how much benefit our Marquis has brought to them."

As he spoke, the butler looked at the mess on the ground with a particularly arrogant look, with some disgust on his face.

"Take them all to the kitchen and ask the cook to stew them tonight. After all, they are a token of the villagers' kindness and should not be trampled on or wasted."

This was a very good remark, but it didn't match his expression. The guards who were helping the servants catch chickens and ducks couldn't help but roll their eyes.

If possible, they would also like to be housekeepers. After all, they don't have to do anything all day and just need to say high-sounding words without thinking.

This is definitely much easier than licking blood from the tip of a knife.

But when they saw Lei Er walking over, they immediately gave up the idea.

Being a personal guard is actually quite good. At least you can form a united front with this idiot without threatening him with a knife at his neck.
