Chapter 215 Moving Next Door
Let’s say Xiaowu and Fu Chengyun played and joked all the way to the village chief’s house.
Fu Chengyun looked at the low house with a look of disgust on his face, and spoke to the village chief in a naturally arrogant manner.
Yu Jiaming wanted Fu Chengyun to establish a good relationship with the village chief so that he could buy some vegetables and fruits in the village in the future.
After all, with the relationship between Ye Mingzhu and Jiang Hongyu, Yuanshan Village can be considered their support base.
Unexpectedly, Fu Chengyun treated the village chief as his servant and gave him all kinds of orders.
Although the village chief was reluctant, he agreed because he was an adult from the capital.
Fu Chengyun was very good at taking advantage of others and directly asked the village chief to arrange people to build a house for him.
The village chief was a little hesitant. It was not that he was unwilling to earn this money, but Fu Chengyun's requirements were too high. The people in their village only built some simple mud houses, so how could they afford to build the house that Fu Chengyun required.
I don’t know what he said wrong, but Fu Chengyun got angry at the village chief’s house and demanded that the village chief must build a house for him. He would not leave until it was built well.
When Xiao Wu went out to ask someone to call Ye Wu, there was a commotion in the village chief's yard.
Of course, it was Fu Chengyun who was making a fuss unilaterally, and the village chief lowered his head and said nothing.
Xiaowu tried to persuade him for half an hour, but Fu Chengyun refused to change his mind. Finally, Xiaowu said that Yu Jiaming would be angry, so he pulled Fu Chengyun away.
Fu Chengyun changed his mind and said he wanted to live in Jiang Hongyu's house. The village chief looked at Xiaowu with embarrassment, because he knew that Xiaowu and Jiang Hongyu had a good relationship.
Xiao Wu waved his hand at him and said, "Don't worry about this. Let's go discuss it with Jiang Hongyu. Go find a few women in the village to cook two meals for the soldiers stationed outside, tonight and tomorrow morning."
The village chief nodded immediately, saying that this was not a difficult task, as every household in the village could contribute some grain, meat and vegetables.
Fu Chengyun glared at the side, feeling that the village chief had different attitudes towards him and Xiaowu, and that he looked down on him.
Xiaowu didn't give him a chance to lose his temper and directly pulled him away.
"Cui, Xiaowu, I haven't explained everything to that person yet, why are you pulling me away?" Fu Chengyun was not as strong as Xiaowu, so he was forcibly dragged out of the village chief's house by him.
"Fu Chengyun, are you stupid? He's the village chief. There's a saying that goes, 'A strong dragon can't suppress a local snake.' You've offended him now. When he gets someone to cook for you, he puts sour water and spit in your meal. Wouldn't that disgust you?"
Fu Chengyun glared: "They dare? I am an official appointed by the imperial court."
Xiaowu looked at Fu Chengyun's stupid look and felt tired for Yu Jiaming. It seemed that their days ahead would be very lively.
"Cui Xiaowu, do they really dare to offend the imperial officials?" Fu Chengyun asked again with a guilty conscience when he saw Xiaowu didn't say anything?
"Of course they wouldn't dare." Xiao Wu didn't want to cause trouble for the village. "But if you really go too far, who can guarantee that? Besides, you don't live in the village, so why would you ask them to build a house for you?"
"Do you think I want to live in the village? The houses here are so bad. But I can't go back to the county town every day, so I can only live here?" Fu Chengyun was also full of complaints. He just wanted to take refuge and didn't want to suffer.
"You don't think you can come back every day, do you?" Xiao Wu knew from listening to Fu Chengyun that he didn't understand the situation.
"You'll be on the island tomorrow, so you won't be able to leave until things are settled on the island..."
Xiao Wu told Fu Chengyun about Yu Jiaming's plans, and he jumped up. "You're not going to come out on the island tomorrow? Where am I going to stay then? I'm going to go back and ask the village chief to find someone to repair my house."
"Come back." Xiao Wu quickly pulled Fu Chengyun, "Except for soldiers and miners, no outsiders are allowed to enter the island."
Fu Chengyun's face immediately darkened: "Then where do I live?"
"Hehe..." This is not something Xiaowu is concerned about.
He dragged Fu Chengyun, who had been making a fuss all the way, into the Jiang family's yard. Fu Chengyun yelled "Ah", which scared Jiang Hongyu and Yu Jiaming who were discussing something.
"Yanli, Cui Xiaowu said that he won't let us come back after we go to the island tomorrow? Is that true?" Fu Chengyun pulled Yu Jiaming's sleeve and asked him to give an explanation.
Yu Jiaming looked at Xiaowu, Xiaowu chuckled twice and told him in his ear about Fu Chengyun coming to hide the goods.
Yu Jiaming's face became increasingly darker, while Fu Chengyun was still complaining that the conditions here were too poor and that he regretted coming here.
"The door is over there. If you, the Fu family, dare to disobey my order, you can leave now. If you don't dare, sit down quietly." Yu Jiaming said sternly.
Fu Chengyun is two years older than Yu Jiaming, but he is a playboy who does nothing. Yu Jiaming is the backbone of the Yu family carefully cultivated. Whenever Yu Jiaming gets angry, Fu Chengyun quickly lowers his head. Although his face shows reluctance, he dare not make trouble anymore.
"Xiao Wu, go tell Lord Jiang that we can borrow their house for a few days." Yu Jiaming was feeling impatient as he still had to make arrangements for the rest of the matter.
There are other houses in Yuanshan Village that are better than the Jiang family's, but there are not many with as small a population as the Jiang family. In addition, the Jiang family's house was only built this year, so staying at the Jiang family's is the best option for them.
When Fu Chengyun heard that he was going to live in the Jiang family, he looked around the whole house and curled his lips: "This is not even as good as the servants' room in my house."
"Then go home and live there." Yu Jiaming was really angry. On the one hand, his grandfather did not agree to his request, and on the other hand, the current emperor actually sent such a thing. It has been several hours, and not only has he not done any work, but he has also been angry over a place to live.
Only then did Fu Chengyun calm down.
Jiang Hongyu and Ye Mingzhu were packing things in the house.
Yu Jiaming had just said that he wanted to borrow his house to stay for a few days. He, Xiaowu, Fu Chengyun, and their guards would all live here. Jiang Hongyu took Ye Mingzhu to call the Ye family.
Ye Mingzhu put all the things that were visible in the house into the cabinets and locked them one by one. She was not afraid of losing them, but afraid of them being dropped. The young master in the yard was obviously emotionally unstable, and who knew when he would have an attack.
Anyway, the valuables are all in the space, so there is no need to worry about them being stolen.
Jiang Hongyu went to see Aunt Jiang's room, and when he came back, the room was as tidy as when he first moved in. Ye Mingzhu was holding a bundle with some of their clothes in it.
As the two walked out of the house, Fu Chengyun couldn't wait to go in to check. Yu Jiaming ignored him and said softly to Jiang Hongyu and the others, "Xiaowu has already asked someone to notify the people who went pearl diving a while ago. They will gather the miners in the village at dawn tomorrow. Once everyone is gathered, we will set off. You don't need to come over tonight. Just rest over there."
"Who will cook for us after they leave?" Fu Chengyun came out of the house with a dark face. He had heard from Xiaowu that Jiang Hongyu's cooking was delicious, and he was waiting to try it.
"Fu Chengyun, Lord Jiang is a newly appointed captain, but he is not here to cook for you." Yu Jiaming was speechless at Fu Chengyun's attitude.
You said you want to eat the food cooked by others, can't you be a little more polite?
