Wife’s Funny Life - Chapter 29
In the morning, Zhou Sihai, who was still sleeping, was pushed awake by his wife.
“This is bad, old master. Get up quickly. There seems to be some activity outside.” When Zhou Sihai opened his eyes, he saw his wife frantically dressing and screaming.
Before he could wake up, he was angered by the fact that he had woken up. He slapped his wife before slowly getting up and putting on his clothes. He scolded, “What a waste of time!”
Hearing the ruckus outside, Zhou Sihai went out calmly. He was just about to take charge of the situation, but who would still be so restless this early in the morning?
As soon as he went out, he was hit by a servant!
The servant panicked and shouted, “This is bad, Master! The soldiers are coming! Run!”
Zhou Sihai had just given his wife a slap, and now he was met with another unhappy person. He stretched out his hand and slapped the servant twice, causing blood to flow from the corner of his mouth and stars to appear in his eyes.
“Bastard, it’s not like our Qingyang Manor has never experienced bandit troops before. Since we’ve come, we’re afraid that they won’t succeed. Come, bring me there to take a look.” Zhou Sihai was huge and powerful. He beat the servant until he was submissive and didn’t dare to make a sound. He obediently led Zhou Sihai to the door.
Getting up early in the morning wasn’t painful, but there was also a trace of comfort. If he hadn’t been woken up, he would have been happier, so he got drunk all the way to the door and opened his eyes wide to look around. What is happening… His legs were shaking!
There weren’t many people, but the gates were wide open. Before his Qingyang Manor could attack, people had already entered.
Impossible, how could this be? This was because he was very confident in his manor’s defensive abilities. In the past few times, when the bandits came and the officials came, they could only sigh at the door and get beaten up until they left. This time, before the fight even started, the bandits had already come in …
No wonder his servants were running around in panic. Zhou Sihai felt dizzy at this moment, as if a great catastrophe was about to befall him. His usual henchmen ran even faster than dogs!
At this moment, his wife, who had also finished dressing herself, came out. When she saw so many soldiers enter, she was shocked and tugged at the corner of her husband’s clothes. “What’s going on, master, who are these people? “How can you get through houses like that?”
This woman had never seen the world before, and her voice was so loud that even Wu Anguo heard it. He smiled and said, “Mr. Zhou, you invited me yesterday to be your guest. I was here just now, so the scenery of Qingyang Manor is quite beautiful.”
Xu Bao was dragged out early in the morning by his husband and told that they were going to a fun place to find something to eat. Although his eyes were hazy and sleepy, he didn’t need to eat his breakfast.
Wu Anguo was wearing a military uniform, which made him look very dignified. However, if anyone else were to see the scene in the room, their jaws would be dislocated.
The dignified Captain Wu gently picked up his clothes and changed the little girl’s clothes. From time to time, he would pass by her chest and accidentally stay for a while before reluctantly leaving. After putting on her clothes, she even put on her shoes, carefully holding her feet in her hands and putting them into her embroidered shoes.
Watching the snow-white lamb turn colorful, with only a head of long hair still hanging, a certain man in military uniform skillfully picked up a comb and helped her comb and tie her hair properly.
His movements were very gentle, and Xu Bao was almost about to fall asleep again. Wu Anguo held the fully dressed little girl in his arms and heavily patted her on her butt. Xu Bao wailed ‘Aiya!’ before he finally came to his senses.
He then excitedly followed them out, even bringing the fifty soldiers with him.
In their eyes, being assigned to the captain’s wife was also a good way out for them. They did not need to go to the special forces, and after spending so much time together, they had formed a deep relationship with each other. Although some people were still envious of the special forces’ unique feeling, they could not help but feel regretful about following the captain’s wife and having meat to eat.
When Xu Bao heard that they were going to collect taxes at the “Red Gate Banquet” yesterday, he became excited. She especially hated people who didn’t respect their food, especially those who didn’t give it to others. They were too stingy, this kind of people was definitely not good people!
Mr Wu promised to eat breakfast after the tax was collected, and Mr Xu became more active.
Arriving at the entrance of a manor, Wu Anguo felt that it would be a little too much effort if he were to put up a defense. The city gates were tightly shut, and it was just like a city gate.
Xu Bao urged, “Big brother, why aren’t you going in? Hurry up and go in. After collecting everything, we can go eat. I’m a bit hungry.”
Wu Anguo forced a smile and said, “Knocking on the door won’t work. You have to open the door first.”
Xu Bao raised his head to look at the door, curled his lips, and said, “Big brother, you can go eat now, right?”
Wu Anguo could only nod at the little girl who always ate first.
Xu Bao then pointed at the two men in the middle and shouted, “Qingguo, Qingcheng, roll over and open the door.”
Under Wu Anguo’s astonished gaze, the two youngsters, who were rather short and dark, unbuckled their belts and hung a hook on them. They threw them at the door and climbed up as if they were walking on flat ground. After a while, he heard something inside! Ah! The door rumbled open.
Wu Anguo couldn’t believe his eyes as he walked in openly with his soldiers. On both sides of the door were two house servants who had been knocked out, and Qing Village and Qing City had quickly hidden themselves among the soldiers. If the door hadn’t been opened, then Wu Anhui would have thought that it was just an illusion.
Sweat trickled down his forehead as he asked, “Little Treasure, how come those two were so powerful?”
Xu Bao had a strange look on his face as he said, “When I went to peek, it was always him who led the way!”
At this moment, Zhou Sihai looked at the soldier in front of him and knew that he had lost his momentum. He no longer had that arrogant expression on his face and began to cry pitifully: “Company Leader Wu, I truly want to pay taxes and work for the country, but I really don’t have any money. Tell me, a small manor like mine, if I had to raise so many people, I would not be able to afford it.”
He felt extremely fortunate that his years of experience as a sly old fox had ultimately left him with a way out. However, his expression grew increasingly sincere.
If Wu Anguo hadn’t heard of this person’s shameless and tyrannical actions, he would have been bewitched by this person’s expression, making him look like a simple and unsophisticated commoner. It was said that on a Thursday, when wild geese flew over his house, they would have to pluck a root of hair from the sky. It was said that on a Thursday, when wild geese flew over his house, they would have to pluck a strand of hair from the sky. They all laughed when they said that he had no money.
However, after a while, the soldiers that went in to search came out and reported that they indeed didn’t find much money. They didn’t even find any decent decorations. At most, this mansion was worth some money.
Everyone wanted to see who would win in the end, so Fang Zheng and the other two fought, the fiercer the fight was, the better it would be. If the Company Leader lost, they naturally did not need to hand in their money, if the Company Leader won, then so be it, but if there was no need to pay the tribute to the sea on Thursday, it was also a good thing.
Looking at this dramatic scene, everyone admired Zhou Sihai. He was truly worthy of being known as the shrewd senior. He had actually made preparations in advance.
Soldiers came out one after another, but they couldn’t find anything of value. Wu Anguo’s face was also ashen. This old man was too outrageous.
Zhou Sihai cried bitterly. His eyes couldn’t help but look at the jars of pickled vegetables. Seeing that no one was paying attention to the broken jar, he became even calmer and continued to cry even harder.
Others might be afraid of their big brother, but she was not afraid at all. From the first glance, she could tell from her big brother’s fierce expression that he was actually very easy to talk to, and even without her husband’s ashen face, Xu Bao shook his arm and said, “Big brother, I want to eat. Didn’t you say that there’s something good to eat here? I’m hungry. ”
Wu Anguo couldn’t vent his anger on the little girl at all. He could only rub her head as if he was rubbing a puppy, telling her not to be impatient.
Upon hearing that the woman wanted to eat, she replied very depressingly: “This lady, even though my house is big, you wouldn’t be able to find a single piece of meat even if you searched the entire house. Our master is vegetarian, and at most there are still a few jars of pickled vegetables in the yard, you can take them if you like.”
Zhou Sihai was still desperately crying from poverty just now. Looking at Wu Anguo’s ashen face, he was extremely excited. This idiot heard his wife’s words and nearly choked to death. He slapped his wife on the spot and said, “A man does things, but a woman doesn’t interrupt!”
His wife, who had been beaten in public, ran to the house crying with her hands over her face.
Xu Bao didn’t pay attention to their wonderful scenes. When she heard the word pickled vegetables, her mind was filled with pickled fish, pickled vegetable powder, pickled bean curd, pickled vegetable buns … She decided that this person was so stingy that he didn’t even have anything when treating her big brother to a meal. She was going to carry all the pickled vegetables in his house away and punish him.
When he wanted to eat something, Xu Bao was proactive. With a gesture, his underlings knew that the eighteen jars of pickled vegetables had been carried out, and before long, Zhou Sihai’s eyes bulged out as he truly cried, “Sir, Lord Military Officer, Master Qing Tian, please don’t, our family only has that little thing. I beg you, can we leave the pickled vegetables here, and I’ll give you the rest?”
Wu Anguo didn’t expect Zhou Sihai to have such a huge reaction when he heard Zhou Sihai cry and say that his father had soaked in the sour vegetables for so long that he couldn’t carry them away. This sour vegetables was his father.
Wu Anguo hesitated when he heard about Earth and Pu Zi, and since his father’s possessions weren’t easy to obtain, Wu Anguo softened his heart and looked at Xu Bao.
At this moment, Xu Bao’s mind was filled with all sorts of methods of pickled vegetables, regardless of his reasoning. Moreover, she saw that he was like a bad person, the way to deal with bad people was for him not to listen to him, so Xu Bao firmly shook his head.
The surrounding onlookers burst into laughter. This wife of the Guild Leader was as dumb as the rumors! If you don’t want the money, if you don’t want the pickled vegetables…
What made them even more speechless was that the Guild Leader actually agreed to that brainless request and left with the soldiers, carrying away the eighteen jars of pickled vegetables.
Many people were wondering if they should prepare a few jars of pickled vegetables at home in case their Guild Leader came to collect taxes.
When Wu Anguo returned to the team section, Zhang Shiqing had already received the news. He looked at the man in front of him and sighed. This man was too soft-hearted.
Xu Bao smiled as he finished his breakfast, waiting for the pickled fish in the afternoon …
