"I've been here for two days now, Lord Lü, you can't go back on your word."

Lu Tu waved his hand and said, "I'm a man of my word, I'll take you to pick a wife!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Delu followed behind him eagerly, scratching his head somewhat embarrassedly: "I was just talking nonsense in the shop before. Actually, I don't like skinny women. I prefer chubby ones."

Lu Tu couldn't help but glare at him: "In this state, where am I supposed to find you a plump wife? Who has such good food?"

"Um...you're right, how about someone with a bigger butt?"

Lu Tu walked forward irritably, ignoring him. Hu Delu knew he was asking for too much, so he quickly shut up and jogged after him.

The two went straight to the area where the refugees lived. By then, everyone had just finished receiving their food for the day and were returning home beaming with joy.

Hu Delu was immediately dazzled by the sights. He quietly tugged at Lü Tu's sleeve and pointed to a thin, dark-skinned widow with a child, saying, "How about this one?"

“Okay.” Lu Tu nodded.

Suddenly he pointed to another single woman in the distance, who had an ordinary appearance but whose hips were wider than her shoulders: "I've changed my mind, I want her!"

Lu Tu looked at Hu Delu: "You'd better think this through. I'm only making this decision for you once. There's no such thing as divorcing a wife here. Don't bully her just because she's a refugee. If you marry her, you have to take on the responsibility of being the head of the household!"

"I've made up my mind. She has the biggest butt, and I just love looking at it, hehehehe..."

“Alright then.” Lu Tu beckoned to the woman and said, “Miss, come here.”

The woman was taken aback: "Me? Sir, are you calling me?"

"Yes, please come over here, young lady."

The woman approached Lu Tu and timidly bowed: "I am Zeng Lanlan. I greet Lord Lu. May I ask what business you have with me?"

Only when you get closer do you realize that Zeng Lanlan is not as good as she looks from a distance. The most prominent feature of her body is her big buttocks. Hu Delu was excitedly rubbing his hands together, and his mouth was almost watering.

Indeed, a favorite thing is priceless; aesthetic sense is something we are born with.

Lu Tu whispered a reminder: "Old Hu, tone it down, don't frighten Miss Zeng."

Zeng Lanlan gave Hu Delu an awkward smile. It was clear that she was quite polite, at least not a wild and unreasonable girl.

Who else is in your family?

Zeng Lanlan's expression darkened: "Reporting to you, sir, I only have one younger brother. My parents died on their way here."

Such a background is quite normal among refugees. Lu Tu continued to ask, "Are you married?"

"Unmarried."

Do you have someone you like?

Zeng Lanlan looked at Lü Tu and Hu Delu with curiosity: "No, I am only able to carry things on my shoulders but not lift them with my hands, so I dare not hope for matters between men and women."

Lu Tu nudged Hu Delu and asked Zeng Lanlan, "What do you think of him? Could he be your husband?"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Lanlan's dark face flushed red instantly, and she nodded shyly.

Hu Delu was overjoyed at the sight and thumped his chest loudly: "Lanlan, don't be afraid. I, Hu Delu, am full of strength. As long as you follow me, I will never let you exert any effort. I am also willing to teach your younger brother the craft of blacksmithing."

Lu Tu was somewhat surprised. Hu Delu looked like a big, burly man, but he turned out to be a warm-hearted guy. You really can't judge a book by its cover.

"You're a blacksmith? That's amazing!" Zeng Lanlan couldn't stop smiling.

Seeing how well she could provide emotional support, Hu Delu ostentatiously took off his shirt on the spot, showing off his biceps: "People say there are three hardships in life: rowing a boat, blacksmithing, and grinding tofu. I, Old Hu, am not afraid of the hardships of blacksmithing. I will definitely make sure you live a good life. You can trust me!"

Zeng Lanlan was amused by his comical appearance and squatted down to pick up Hu Delu's clothes and drape them over his shoulders: "Brother Hu, don't catch a cold, I believe in you."

"Heavens above, have you agreed to my request?"

Zeng Lanlan lowered her head and made a soft sound: "Mmm!"

"I have a wife! I, Old Hu, have a wife! Parents, did you see that?" Hu Delu was so happy that he hugged Zeng Lanlan tightly, spun around in circles and shouted, as if he were going crazy.

Seeing this, the surrounding refugees were genuinely happy for him and cheered, "Wedding night! Wedding night!"

This joyful mood quickly spread to others, and the entire training ground was filled with laughter and cheers.

Just a few months ago, the villagers were still scheming against each other, and would even fight to the death over a single piece of firewood. Now, they sincerely wish each other well.

It wasn't in vain that Lu Tu put in so much effort; he finally managed to win over the hearts of the people. If the villagers were always scheming and fighting amongst themselves, he probably would never achieve anything in this tiny place.

Lu Tu stopped the surrounding women from jeering: "Go do what you're supposed to do, or I'll find you men too!"

The women, clearly knowing that Lu Tu was a kind man, laughed and said, "That's wonderful! Lord Lu, please give us a husband and take good care of us. Our land is almost dying of drought."

Lu Tu was sweating profusely as he listened. These married women were truly outrageous, their words even more unrestrained than his own.

"You said it yourself. I'll be holding a matchmaking event in two weeks, and I'll pick a hunk for you to properly cultivate this barren land of yours!"

"Oh, thank you so much, Your Honor!"

Looking at Hu Delu now, he has already taken Zeng Lanlan's little hand in his, and both of them are beaming with happiness.

Lu Tu waved his hand and said, "Old Hu, I'll give you a day off today so you can focus on your wedding night. I'll come back to discuss things with you tomorrow."
