Without waiting for Xihe to respond, he continued, "I think it's a good auspicious day for getting married."
He hooked the hair by her ear and said, "It's too late to embroider a wedding dress. I'll just buy you one."
Xihe???
Are you crazy? How did the topic change so quickly, suddenly becoming a wedding drama?
Fortunately, the housekeeper came in just in time. The border's geographical environment is special. Outside the city, there is a lot of wind and sand. Soldiers and civilians often need to go out and fight against the barbarians. Therefore, most people here are careless and have rough faces.
"General, the food is ready." The butler had a kind smile on his rough face.
"Um."
Fu Yu responded, and then carried Xihe to the next room to eat without any hesitation, as if he was holding a baby.
The table was filled with dishes, mostly meat and fewer vegetables.
The food smelled strong and Xihe's stomach was growling with hunger. He didn't care how uncomfortable his current posture was and just picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
The two of them swept away the entire table of food.
"I want to take a bath."
After eating and drinking, Xihe pushed Fu Yu, wanting him to take her there. The man looked at her and let go of her hand.
He said lazily, "You have no hands or feet? Go by yourself."
Xihe... To be honest, isn't it you who has been keeping me under control, and I can't move and have to order you around?
She stood up angrily and left with the little maid who was also full and satisfied.
As soon as the man left, the butler's expression changed, and he looked serious: "General, the man has been captured and is in the dungeon. Lieutenant General Xu and others are interrogating him. I think we will have a result tomorrow."
Fu Yu nodded, rubbing the cup in his hand, his eyes wandering somewhere.
"But, General..." The butler suddenly hesitated and stammered.
"Um?"
Fu Er looked up, his stern face clearly outlined under the light.
"I found a group of people behind the carriage of the girl just now."
He carefully glanced at his master and saw that his face was expressionless. He guessed his master's thoughts and said carefully, "After inspection, those people had pictures and texts on their hands and poison hidden between their teeth... They looked like barbarians."
The window frame was shaking in the wind. A man was sitting on a chair. The candlelight flickered, and his expression could not be seen clearly in the semi-darkness.
The housekeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Master, what is the identity of this young lady? Do we need to interrogate her maidservants and coachman?"
After all, it involves the barbarians, so the butler doesn't care so much. What if this girl really has some problems, then won't his master be the one who suffers in the end?
He absolutely couldn't let this happen.
Boom,
The cup gently placed on the table, making a sound. "Her identity is clear. Take those people and interrogate them to see if they have any connection with the barbarians who are chasing us today."
There are many barbarian tribes, and they have always liked to act independently, but for some reason they have come in and made frequent moves.
Today, while they were patrolling the mountains, they happened to encounter a few people with strange movements. They chased them all the way and found that each of them had good skills and could use the woods and high ground for cover. They chased them for a whole night before catching up with them near the boundary marker of the border town.
Then, as luck would have it, he met Lin Rou there.
"Yes, master." The butler lowered his head and went down.
The room was quiet. Fu Yu looked out the window. Suddenly, he raised his arm and pinched his eyebrows.
“Not at all worry-free!”
Just then, the door next door opened and the sound of the master and servant talking could be heard. I guess they had finished washing up.
Fu Yu closed his eyes, stood up after a while, and strode away.
"Miss, where do I sleep at night?"
Looking at the empty house, the little maid's face wrinkled into a bun. Whether in the capital or at the Lin family, the houses they lived in always had soft couches at the door for the maids to sleep on.
The room is empty now, where will she sleep?
