1504. Chapter 1504

Chapter 1504

After listening to Butler Wang's words, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan looked at each other and nodded at the same time. Li Qiufeng said: "Master Wang and Miss Wang have not been poisoned by the enemy. That is the best thing. If he

If we can find some martial arts masters to help, we will have more confidence to deal with the Fuso people."

Butler Wang took the jade pendant back into his arms and led Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan back to the Wang residence. As he walked, he said: "After I inspected the jade pendant, I discussed it with Mr. Xiao and Mr. Li. Xiao

Your Excellency said that there is currently a shortage of manpower in Zhuangzi. There are only two or three villagers guarding the entrance of the village, and they are all old and weak. It can be said that they are useless. If the enemy attacks in large numbers, they can attack the village owner's home without any effort.

We are trapped in the village owner's house, completely unaware of the situation outside. If the enemy attacks suddenly, we can be said to be caught off guard. These dozen horse dealers are not weak in martial arts, so it is better to let them guard the entrance of the village. When the enemy attacks

, they can resist for a while. If we know the news at the village owner's house, we can take precautions in advance, so that we will not be at a loss when the enemy sneak attacks.

"Since Mr. Xiao has spoken, I naturally dare not disobey and ask these people to come to the entrance of the village to guard. They were reluctant at first, so Mr. Xiao asked me to give them one hundred taels of silver, and promised to pay them every day from now on.

It took them one hundred taels, and these people happily agreed. However, things happened in a hurry. Mr. Xiao also said that Master Zhu and Miss Murong would not be able to return until tomorrow at the earliest, so I failed to explain clearly to these horse dealers.

This caused the two of them to have a bad relationship with them. I am at fault for this, and I ask Mr. Zhu and Ms. Murong to forgive me."

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan said a few words of humility, and the three of them chatted for a while before arriving at the gate of Wang's residence. They saw that the gate of Wang's residence was closed, but the light reflected in Wang's residence could be seen from above the courtyard wall. Li Qiufeng

Seeing this, he and Murong Danyan knew that there must be lanterns and torches everywhere in the house. They both thought that all the men in Wangjiazhuang had been recruited to build the city on Motian Ridge, and only a few women, children, old and weak were left in the village.

Although the lights in Wang's residence were brightly lit at this time, it was just a bluff. Fortunately, the Yagyu clan had not yet attacked Wang's village, otherwise the village would have been filled with blood.

Butler Wang opened the door and invited Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan to walk into the courtyard. Sure enough, they saw lanterns hanging high in various places in the courtyard, and lights coming from the windows of the main hall, side rooms and concierge. Butler Wang led the two of them

Walking towards the corner door leading to the backyard, he sighed and said: "Now there are only a few servants in the house, so they can't help much. It's a helpless thing to light up the lights everywhere in the house. It's just that

I hope that when the Fusang people see the bright lights in the house, they think that we have been prepared for a long time and do not dare to attack easily. The owner of our village has always been simple and hates extravagance and luxury. If he is still in the village, it will be dark soon, except for the gate.

Leave one lantern, and all other lights must be extinguished to save lamp oil and candles. Alas, I just hope that the old man can return safely as soon as possible, and we have a backbone..."

At this time, the three of them had reached the corner door. Before Butler Wang could finish his words, he suddenly heard someone behind him saying, "Housekeeper, please stay here. I have something to ask you."

Before the man finished speaking, Li Qiufeng and the other three people all stopped and turned their heads to look. They saw a maid hurriedly walking behind them. Murong Danyan remembered that her surname was Liu, and Wang Xiaoyu called her Fourth Sister Liu.

.This man often brought tea and meals to Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu. He was extremely cautious and he was an acquaintance with Murong Danyan.

When Butler Wang saw Fourth Sister Liu calling him, he frowned and said to himself: "Amituo Buddha, the Jade Emperor bless me, don't worry, something else will happen in Zhuangzi!"

Seeing the worried look on Butler Wang's face, Murong Danyan thought to himself that the Wangjiazhuang has been in constant turmoil in the past few days, and the owner of Wangjiazhuang and Xiaoyu's sister were forced to flee again. Now the enemy is watching, and the Japanese pirates will attack at any time, and the village is full of people.

They are old, weak, sick and disabled. This heavy burden now falls entirely on Butler Wang's shoulders. No wonder he is so nervous.

I saw Fourth Sister Liu walking quickly in front of the three of them, first bowing to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, and then respectfully said to Butler Wang: "Master Qi, there are so many distinguished guests in the house today.

This matter must be decided by the butler. There is still some rice, noodles and meat in the kitchen, but it can only last for a day or two. The butler has told us to use the best food and wine to serve all the gentlemen, but tomorrow

If I don't go to the city to buy some meat and come back, I'm afraid..."

When Fourth Sister Liu said this, she glanced at Butler Wang, lowered her head, and then said: "The servants can't make the final decision on procurement matters, so please ask the chief steward to make an idea."

Butler Wang glanced at Fourth Sister Liu, snorted, and said, "After the Ma family's group entered the village a few days ago, didn't I tell them to buy more meat? Why didn't Old Wu go and do it?"

Fourth Sister Liu heard that Butler Wang's tone was not good, she trembled, shook her head repeatedly, and said: "How dare Old Wu disobey the orders of Butler Wang? It's just that Uncle Wang, who was in charge of the kitchen, told Old Wu that those people in Majiazhuang are all idiots.

, giving them meat to eat every day is already a compliment to them. If you let them get used to it, I don’t know what trouble will happen. Therefore, although you have to give them a meal of meat and vegetables every day, you can’t buy good meat and only pick out some meat.

, just stew some vegetable leaves..."

When Fourth Sister Liu said this, she glanced at Butler Wang secretly, and then said: "Old Wu listened to Uncle Wang's instructions. The meat he bought a few days ago was all meat with watery skin that couldn't be put on the table. It's okay to feed those mud-legged people, but

It is extremely rude to use it to entertain distinguished guests."

After listening to Fourth Sister Liu's words, Housekeeper Wang's face darkened and he said: "Wang Lao Er is confused and is simply a bastard. No wonder those mud-legged people in Majiazhuang are causing trouble. It turns out that it is not all without reason. Huh, Wang Lao Er, where are you?"

With such good intentions, he would save money for our Zhuangzi? Most likely, this bastard bought some meat and brought it back, but he wanted to pay the bill at the price of good meat and get some benefits from it. I will go to the kitchen to check, if he really dares to show up in the accounts

I'm going to do some tricks and have him get out of Zhuangzi early tomorrow morning."

After Butler Wang finished speaking, Fourth Sister Liu's face changed drastically and she said in a trembling voice: "Master Butler, please calm down. Don't say that it was a villain who told you about this matter. Otherwise, if Uncle Wang gets angry, my whole family will be affected."

Disaster."

When she said this, her body began to tremble, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, and she could no longer speak. Butler Wang ignored him, turned to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan and said, "Master Xiao, Master Li and others are currently

They all live in Zhuangzi, and they are all big shots that we can’t afford to offend. If the food is a little worse, although we can’t do anything to us now, it’s hard to say what will happen after the disaster. I want to go to the kitchen to take a look.

Look, you two, please go to the backyard and have a rest."
