The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Smoke was rising from the village as Yan Zhenshen and Chu Xiao led two roe deer to the county town early in the morning.

This time, in addition to the pheasant left over from yesterday, Chu Xiao also brought half a bag of black fungus and mushrooms. Most of the wild vegetables were sold yesterday, but the Scutellaria baicalensis that he had dug up in the mountains before had been left in the space. There were only four or five pieces that could not be sold for much money, so it was better to give them away.

Yesterday, Yan Zhengxing mentioned that an important person wanted to build a manor. This matter really made Yan Zhenshen pay attention to it.

Although the land has title deeds, if they really encounter a big shot who forces a sale on them, these peasants will be helpless.

My husband is capable, and the two of us working together will definitely make life better and better. Naturally, I don't want to get into unnecessary trouble for no reason.

They first went to find Manager Lin to sell the roe deer, and then Yan Zhenshen and Chu Xiao went to the county government office. They didn't know any other prominent figures, so they thought of asking Master Lu for some information.

However, they came at an unfortunate time as Chief Secretary Lu was on leave that day. However, the gatekeeper was seeing them many times and knew that Chief Secretary Lu thought highly of them, so he kindly showed them the way.

The people of Anning Town jokingly call the intersection of East Street and West Street "Chuanzi Lane". This lane is wider than West Street, but it is more messy and dilapidated than East Street.

The yamen runner said they had entered the third house in the alley. The two counted one by one and found that one of the doors of Lu Zhubu's house was open. Chu Xiao knocked and heard a clear child's voice coming from inside: "Who is it?"

Chu Xiao recognized Qing'er's voice and replied with a smile: "Qing'er, I'm Chu Xiao, Brother Xiao."

When Qing Ge'er heard that this was his new husband, he ran out quickly and called him Brother Xiao sweetly. Then he saw Yan Zhenshen behind Chu Xiao and seemed a little scared, so he lowered his voice a little: "Brother."

The two were about to ask if Grandpa Lu was at home when they saw a man in his twenties walking out of the next room. He looked like he had just been woken up. He was half-naked, dishevelled, and yawning.

"Qing'er, who are these two people?" the man asked while looking them up and down. His eyes were like those of an eagle, as if he wanted to see into the depths of their souls.

"Uncle, this is Brother Xiao and Brother Fu."

Qing'er didn't know how to introduce them, but he remembered that Aunt Guizhi said that although he couldn't marry Brother Xiaobei, they could be friends, and friends can play with each other, so they should have come here to play with grandpa.

I added: "Grandpa's friend."

The man smiled when he heard it and said, "So he is my father's friend regardless of age difference."

Yan Zhenshen was holding the pheasant in one hand and covering Chu Xiao's eyes with the other hand.

Although there were many shirtless men in the summer, and the women and boys in the village would not mind seeing them, the look his husband gave them was so passionate that he had to admit that he felt a little jealous.

Yan Zhenshen couldn't spare a move, so he nodded and asked, "I'm sorry to ask you this, but I wonder if Master Lu is at home?"

"This..." The man looked at Qing Ge'er with a questioning look: "Where is your grandpa?"

"I'm going out to buy some wine." Qing Ge'er imitated Lu Zhubu and said, "Grandpa said that if my son returns safely from the border, he must buy some good meat and wine so that we can have a few drinks tonight."

The man was speechless. The student had imitated the character quite well, but he still felt like he was being taken advantage of.

But he didn't hesitate and smiled cheerfully: "Since you are my father's close friends regardless of age difference, please come in."

Yan Zhenshen followed with a few polite words and entered the main room. When everyone sat down, the man said that he didn't know there would be guests at home, so it would be too rash for him to go downstairs and tidy up first.

After a while, a man in a black robe and with long hair tied up walked in with a vigorous pace. He clasped his fists neatly and said, "I am Lu Zhicheng, the deputy general under the command of Lord Zunyuan, and I am a sixth-rank general. What are your names?"

Yan Zhenshen stood up and clasped his fists in return: "Yan Zhenshen, the hunter from Anning Village, this is my husband Chu Xiao. I am troubled by something, so I came to bother you a little bit, hoping that Master Lu can help me solve my confusion."

Lu Zhicheng didn't ask what the matter was, but sat down and chatted about this and that, asking if everything was fine at home, then asking if hunting in the mountains was difficult, anyway, just some gossip about family matters.

Although it was just casual chatting, Yan Zhenshen was a little frightened. However, they were all simple everyday conversations, but he felt that every sentence connected together had almost explained his own affairs.

Fortunately, he is a man of few words, and apart from his husband's special abilities, there is nothing in the family that cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise he would have to sell out all his secrets.

The two talked for half an hour before Lu Zhubu came back. He was very happy to see Chu Xiao, "Xiao brother, you two came at the right time. Your uncle just came back from the border yesterday. I bought some good wine and meat. Let's have a few drinks together later."

Although Chu Xiao thought Lu Zhicheng had a great figure at first and couldn't help but take a few more glances, he immediately felt a sense of oppression, just like when he first met Brother Shen. However, his Brother Shen was kind-hearted, but he didn't know what kind of character this man had, so he didn't say a word after entering the door and served as a background for half an hour.

At this time, Lu Zhubu came back and greeted him with a smile: "Grandpa Lu, I came here today to ask for something. How can I ask you to treat me with good wine and good food? We, the younger generation, must invite you and your uncle to have a simple meal in the restaurant."

"We've already bought the wine, why go to a restaurant?" Lu Zhubu patted Chu Xiao's head and raised the wine jar in his hand: "This is good wine, you can't get it in a restaurant."

Chu Xiao just smiled but didn't force it. After all, he wasn't penniless anymore. When he had more medicinal herbs in the future, he could just give more to Grandpa Lu as a gift.

Chief Lu put the things he brought back on the table and asked, "Xiao brother, if you have any troubles, you can talk to Grandpa Lu first."

Chu Xiao knew that Master Lu was not someone who liked to beat around the bush, so he went straight to the point and said, "Yesterday someone wanted to buy my land, saying that a big shot wanted to build a farm there, and if I didn't sell it, the government would forcibly seize it, so I wanted to come over and ask Grandpa Lu if you knew about this?"

"The land on the north mountain of Anning Village?" Lu Zhicheng was very surprised. He had only received the order half a month ago, and he rushed to Anning Town at midnight yesterday, but the news had already spread.

Chu Xiao nodded: "My little uncle may not know that there is no good farmland in Beishan, and the output is not high. I am willing to sell it if someone wants to buy it, because it is my dowry, and the person who came to buy it is my husband's fifth uncle."

"This man holds a grudge against my family because of the dam breach. He even tried to throw my newborn second brother to death, and even attacked my ten-year-old brother Shen, who almost died. My father-in-law is kind-hearted and doesn't want to see his brothers kill each other, so he didn't report it to the authorities, but simply stopped communicating with us. Yesterday, he came to our house and threatened and bribed us to sell the land to him. Of course, I couldn't agree. Even if I was confiscated and couldn't get a penny, I didn't want to have anything to do with that kind of person."
