Chapter 47: Arriving at Fandoutun
On the road, a horse-drawn carriage loaded with household goods slowly passed.
In front of the carriage, a middle-aged man drove a horse, and on the carriage sat a middle-aged woman, a teenager and a girl, followed by a domestic goat.
It was the Weili family who moved to Fandoutun.
After eating at noon yesterday, Lake and Mrs. Swain began to tidy up the things they had moved. Willy and Velia were not idle, and they were busy together. I was busy until the evening, and I was able to clean up. After that, Lake and Mrs. Swain did not tire at all, and went to the homes of the villagers they were close to to say goodbye to them.
Of course, saying goodbye is actually an invisible show-off. When the villagers learned that Willy had been given a tun by Baron Kells and had been recruited into the guard, everyone's eyes showed envy that could not be concealed. The two sons of the Fallon family have become excellent young men who serve the aristocracy. Everyone realized that this ordinary Feron family was about to rise.
The envious eyes of the villagers put the Lakes to good use, and it was the brightest moment on their faces since they were born.
I don't know if it's the promotion of Willy's status, or the good popularity of Lake and Mrs. Sawin in the village, there are still many villagers who came to see them off when they moved this morning. Some sent food, some cloth, and everyone was enthusiastic. Aunt Sawin, in particular, lent her man's carriage to the Willy family, which saved Ryker, who had planned to hire a carriage, another amount of money.
By the time Willy left the manor, the guards had already told Willy the exact location of Willy's Pandoutun. So at this time, Lake was rushing towards Fandoutun according to Willy's guidance.
Lake was in a good mood, looking at the weeds and wildflowers on the side of the road, and he realized for the first time that life was so wonderful. The current Fei Lun family has a huge amount of wealth and a tunzi of their own. All this is a scene that he couldn't even dream of before, but now it has become a reality.
There weren't a lot of things at home, so the carriage wasn't crowded.
Mrs. Sawin smiled unconsciously as she looked at the two children in front of her. She suddenly thought of Thorps, who was still in Diamond Town, and now that the family environment had improved so much, it was time to find Thorps a wife.
"When we get to Fandoutun, can we still eat the prey?"
Velia holds Wally in her arms, and although Wally is a bad bear who eats inside and out, as its nanny, Vilia forgives him.
Hearing this, Willy replied: "Of course, although Fandoutun is far away from Morse Forest, it is very close to Pole Forest. When I get to Fandoutun, I can go to the Bole Forest to hunt you for prey. ”
Although he said that, Willy also knew that in the future, he would join Baron Kells's personal army, and he would have very little time to stay at home. It is true that he is the head of Fandoutun, but he can't manage Fandoutun at all times. He was already thinking about the plan for Pandoutun in his heart, and if he was not in the tunzi in the future, he would have to entrust Laike to exercise the power of management for him.
"Is that Fandoutun?"
Suddenly, Lake said about the houses and land not far from before.
Willy looked in the direction of Lake's finger.
It was a brand new house, but outside the house, there was a large area of land that had not grown any crops. On the land, more than a dozen figures are cultivating the land.
"This is it. ”
Willy replied to Lake.
"It's finally here!"
Vilia said excitedly, saying that in her opinion, the journey was a very boring journey. If it weren't for Wally's company, she would probably be bored and crazy.
Lake's whip was whipped down hard, causing the horse to pick up some speed.
Seeing Pandoutun close in front of him, his heart was also very excited, these dozen people in front of him were all his son's subordinates, and this land was also given to Willy by Baron Kells, and it was the private property of the Faren family. He had always been a baron's lord before, but now, he even has his own people.
Willy glanced at his father, who was even more excited than himself, and felt understanding. Starting a new life is an extraordinary experience for Lake, who is over forty years old.
As Willy approached Fandoutun, an old man with a hoe suddenly looked up and saw the approaching carriage.
"Is the tun chief here?"
A flash of worry suddenly appeared in the old man's eyes.
Just yesterday, Baron Kells sent guards to tell the people of Fandoutun that from now on, they would be Willy Pheren's men, and Willy Pheren would be their new master, the head of Fandoutun.
The others who were working on the land noticed that the old man had stopped his work, and they all followed his gaze to see the carriage of the Willy family.
Everyone's eyes showed worry about the unknown, and they couldn't be sure what kind of person the new Tun Chang was. If he is an irritable tun chief, then all the tun residents will have to endure harsh scolding and even beating and scolding from their superiors. In this world, the commoners at the bottom are subject to all the will of the lord. Although Willy is only a commander, he can be said to be a lord that they must obey.
"Don't stop what you're doing, save yourself being scolded by the new tun chief after seeing it, I'll go to meet the new tun chief. ”
The old man was evidently more prestigious among the group, and when they heard his words, they began to work again, and were more diligent than before.
A hint of apprehension appeared on the old man's face, but he still stepped forward.
"A man came over. ”
Lake said as he stopped the carriage.
Willy also jumped out of the carriage.
"Are you Lord Willy?"
The old man glanced at the supplies on the carriage and knew that they were moving, so the identities of several people were determined at once. He saw that the carriage was carrying a total of four people, a middle-aged couple, and a pair of children, and he almost subconsciously regarded Lake as the commander.
"Willy is my son, and I'm his father, Lake. ”
Lake explained to the old man. Although he is not a tun chief, he is just as proud as a tun chief's father.
There was a hint of surprise in the old man's eyes, he didn't expect that the new tun chief turned out to be a young man.
He hurriedly bent down to Willy and saluted, and then saluted Lake and the others, although he was very old, he still put on a very low posture. Here, it's not age that determines humility, it's status.
"Welcome, Chief Veleton. ”
There was humility in the old man's tone.
At this time, his heart was relieved, because the Tun Chang's family didn't look like a vicious guy. In this way, the people of Fandoutun should not have to live so frightened.
