Chapter 79: Farina's Strangeness
"Are you trying to say I'm cranky again?"
Behind Ella's gentle, intelligent, godless eyes is an unusual vitality, fearless and confident in the world, Xu Siling has always gained a strange feeling in her, which surpasses all the ordinary life of Xu Siling.
"Men always think too little, not us women think too much."
Pulling out the uneaten bread from her bosom, Ella continued to break it and eat it.
"Servants, equipment, horses. In addition to the fiefdom, she gave everything she could. You even said that she wanted to pick a nice village for you in three years. Husband, don't you think all this is too good? It's a village, not a manor. ”
"I said at the beginning that there is something wrong with that noble lady, and she must have plotted against her husband."
After Terry leaves, Ella turns on the caring little woman mode.
has always had a keen insight, so she understands that her feelings are not illusions, and Phil does have a problem.
It's just that she doesn't know what the problem is, and she has to find a chance to contact Fei'er again before she can confirm it.
Xu Siling scratched her face, mainly because she didn't know how to answer.
You can't tell Ella that Fei'er likes herself, so she gives him all the good things she can give, right?
Especially there was a faint smell of vinegar in the air, and Xu Siling's bones were a little numb.
"Actually, I was canonized as a knight for a reason."
Then Xu Siling briefly talked about his contribution to the Black Death.
At least it proves that his dedication to Raya Town and Phil is great, and although the reward for this knighthood varies from person to person, it is at least deserved.
Ella's speculation about Xu Siling's research on the Black Death has always been a speculation, and now that she admits it, she knows a lot.
Hearing the explanation, Ella seemed to feel a little more comfortable, and the smell of vinegar in the air was much lighter.
Merely.
"I know how good my husband is." After Ella finished eating the bread, she got up and patted her cloak, and her gray eyes looked at Xu Siling with deep meaning: "But I want to be careful and simple to remind you that Miss Raya may like you, maybe she doesn't know it." ”
Hearing Ella's words, Xu Siling's fragile little heart trembled fiercely.
Wouldn't it be for Ella to see?
Looking up at Ella's blown-up face, her head looked like two demonic horns.
"Why do you say that?"
"The first time I saw her, she was dressed so delicately and gorgeously, obviously deliberately dressed, her attitude as a nobleman was too friendly to you, and even her words were very tolerant of you."
"Ella, you're too worried, she's a nobleman, what's so strange about dressing gorgeously."
"It's your husband, you're too stupid, I'm also a woman, women don't deliberately dress up for no reason, and they can make a woman suddenly dress up, or attend some special occasion. Or, she wants to get someone's attention and compliment. ”
The gray pupils beside him were like a sharp sword slammed into Xu Siling's heart.
He was like a guy caught raping in bed, and he couldn't help touching his forehead.
"From your husband's point of view, this is a good thing, it improves your situation as an executioner, and there are countless benefits and riches waiting for you in the future, after all, there is a nobleman who is willing to accept you."
At this, Ella stopped talking, but looked around the courtyard.
The servants were still helping to sort out the 'dowry' she had brought from Tamuburg, while the cook and the groom were chatting in the stable.
"Husband, don't think about it, it may be that the change in your identity makes me feel a little pressure."
Ella rubbed her face rarely, and seemed to feel a little strange as well.
"I wouldn't normally say that"
Ending the 'thrilling' conversation, Xu asked the chef to take out the stew he had cooked yesterday and reheat it.
When Ella saw the stew to eat, she put the strange feeling behind her and ate it deliciously.
Now the servants knew who Ella was, and they were respectful of her.
It's just that the groom cautiously reminded Xu Siling that since he had become a knight and had broken away from the executioner's status class, he had less contact with other executioners, especially with the people of the executioner's family.
Of course, he didn't say it so directly, but he heard Terry say that he would move the entire executioner family to Raya Town and attach it to Xu Siling's name.
Xu Siling is a person who is personally recognized by Miss Raya, especially when Raya Town was hit by the Black Death, he is also busy for Raya Town, everyone sees it.
What are the other executioners?
The fact that the people of Raya Town can accept Xu Siling does not mean that they can accept other executioners.
Of course, Xu Siling didn't care about the persuasion of the groom, in the final analysis, it was all his personal selfishness.
He himself was helpless in Raya Town, and after becoming a knight, there were too many things to do, and if the Frophon family were willing to move over, it would be much easier for him.
Although he can also run a good job in Raya Town, there will always be people who are willing to follow him and help him do things.
But as Terry said, they are in-laws, and they are also executioners, and in some ways, their benefits and concerns are the same.
In many cases, the degree of loyalty and dedication is not something that can be found casually outside.
Just thinking that the people of the Frophon family moved over, someone grabbed his head with him, and he was a little embarrassed.
No, I'm a knight now, so I'm going to take a long-term view.
For prisoners who need to be beheaded in the future, I will come personally, and for other prisoners who don't need to be beheaded, leave it to them?
While other punishments also grant skill proficiency, the magnitude is very low, not as substantial as the beheading.
After a while, Falina also came to the house, and when she saw so many more people in the courtyard, she was a little afraid to come in.
After knowing that Xu Siling was canonized as a knight, she was very happy.
It's just that I don't know what's going on, after Falina brought the herbs over, she left a little dejected not long after.
This made Xu Siling scratch his head.
Falina had always liked to stay at home for a while before leaving, but this time she didn't stay long before leaving.
In particular, there is a contrast between the state when I first arrived and the expression I had when I left.
Ella had noticed the change in Farina, but she didn't say anything.
The matter of expanding the yard will not be decided until Terry arrives, and the servants and others have nothing to do, and a group of people gather around the yard to gossip.
Xu Siling was thinking about how to find something to do for these servants, while Ella picked up the knight's wife and began to arrange for them to work.
I have to say that the serious Ella has a bit of momentum, but her expression is simple, which really makes the servants a little unserious.
But the identity is here, and it is not okay to do things without being obedient.
Arrange for the servants to spread the weeds all over the stable, and then say that this is where they will sleep these days, and she, like Xu Siling, does not want these servants to sleep in the same room as herself.
The servants did not have a problem, because the commoners were now poor, and many families had no beds, but slept on weeds or benches, and it was not uncommon for them to sleep with horses.
It's just that the groom and the cook are a little uncomfortable inside.
They are specially selected people from the inner fort, not to mention following Xu Siling's fragrant food and spicy drinks, at least the standard of living should not be reduced too much.
Unexpectedly, five men and women slept on a haystack together.
There are now three horses in the stable, one is the dowry that Ella rode over when they first met, the second is given to Xu Siling by Fei'er, and the third is the one that Ella rode back from Tamubao again.
The third horse is not a riding horse and is used exclusively for agricultural purposes.
Ella asked the servants to pull the horses out of the open space and hoe them, and when the season came, they would look for an opportunity to sow the seeds.
And the groom and the cook were not idle, and let them collect the tools that Ella usually used.
She likes to do some manual work, and Xu Siling's family reserves can indeed be used as a grocery store, but some special tools are still missing.
Seeing that Ella was arranged in an orderly manner, Xu Siling sat on the bench and watched with relish.
I have to say that it is comfortable to have someone you trust to help take care of it, and you don't have to worry about anything.
Xu Siling comfortably shook his hands and was in charge, and he enjoyed this feeling very much.
After Ella arranged everything, he pulled Ella to sit down beside him.
"Ella, when your brother Terina has news that I'm going to make a trip these days."
Ella wondered, "What's wrong?" ”
"I'm going to arrest the mountain and forest bandits in Raya Town, these robbers have gone too far recently, especially when they know that the fleeing outsiders are rushing to Raya Town, and they have gathered on the main road of Raya Town to rob and kill, I can't accept it." Xu Siling patted his chest, "How can I say that I am also a knight of Raya Town, and it is necessary to contribute to the territorial protection of Raya Town."
Looking at Ella's disbelieving expression, Xu Siling hurriedly added: "It's all for justice!" ”
Terry came back quickly, almost running his horse back to Tamu Fort out of breath, and then hurriedly changed horses and drove to Raya Town after discussing the matter.
Ella's father, Ximei, after discussion, confirmed that he would move to Raya Town and live under Xu Siling's name.
This matter was originally a big deal, but in front of the executioner becoming a knight, it was not a big deal.
Terry brought news that the people of the Flophon family will not all move over for the time being, because there are also some people from the Flophon family living in Tamu Fort, and because of the witch hunt in Tamu Fort, the witches will be executed in the future, and several people will need to be there.
Anyway, most of the family members have already started to pack their bags overnight and prepare to rush to Raya Town tomorrow.
This speed surprised Xu Siling very much.
But come to think of it, the executioner has always been ostracized, and naturally has no sense of belonging to various towns, so there is no resistance to moving around.
The people who got the Frophon family will move over, and Xu Siling can be regarded as calming down.
At least you don't have to worry about expanding your yard, or even pay for it.
The people of the Flophon family are of course happy to get their hands dirty.
Terry happily returns to Raya Town to inform the news, and after dinner, he will enjoy the 5+1 of the horse shed.
Terry has a problem with this, and Ella doesn't show his intelligence in front of Terry, but still rigidly asks him to sleep in the stable.
In fact, Xu Siling knows very well that he and Ella have the same idea in this regard, but their purposes are different.
He didn't like other people sleeping in his main house, it was simply a long-standing sense of territory and the need for personal privacy.
And Ella, who doesn't want people to see it, has an extra small bed in the bedroom.
If the servant and Terry knew he wasn't sleeping with Ella, the devil knew what kind of nonsense would come out.
In particular, this also involves more or less self-esteem that Ella's inner subconscious is not aware of.
She has always called herself Xu Siling's wife, but if she is found to be a wife, she can't sleep with her husband.
For her, it may not be a blow to her dignity.
Two days have passed in the blink of an eye.
The Frophon family has already arrived in the town of Raya.
Xu Siling has met some of the Flofen family, but all of them have never met.
Now that they knew that Xu Siling had been canonized as a knight as an executioner, they all stepped forward curiously to greet him.
After some contact, Xu Siling could see that the people of the Flofen family looked at him with respectful restraint.
The reverence in this foundation is the influence of the secular status class.
Even if they knew that Xu Siling was still an executioner, the status of a knight had already made them feel pressured.
Fortunately, they saw that Xu Siling did not have any aristocratic shelf, but spoke very kindly, obviously getting along with them as executioners, and they were comfortable with each other.
There are many capable people in the executioner family.
Because there is money, there is money to spend, and most of it will be spent on children's personal interests and hobbies.
So in terms of carpentry and engineering design, the people of the Frophon family are involved.
After looking at the topography of the hillside, the terrain and house structure design drawings of the entire hillside were drawn overnight.
Houses were being built at the bottom of the hill and on both sides of the road up the hill.
There were quite a few people in the Frophon family, and there were more than sixty men, women, and children all together.
If you don't plan it well, the hillside may not really be able to accommodate so many people.
After asking Fei'er, Fei'er didn't care about this matter, and directly assigned the entire hillside to Xu Siling and asked him to start the construction at will.
As for the arrival of the Flofen family, she is quite happy, the more strength Xu Siling has, doesn't it mean that her strength is stronger.
I thought that the people of the Frophon family would go to Raya Town to find workers to do things, but I didn't expect that all the work would be done by themselves.
This phenomenon is sad and helpless.
It's not that prunes don't want to spend money to find someone to work, but many times you spend money to find workers, and people may not be willing to work for the executioner.
Therefore, the executioner family has always been 'self-produced and sold', and those who can do it themselves will not trouble others, and it is also a strange phenomenon, which leads to the emergence of many capable people in the executioner family.
In the past two days, there are people in the Florine family who can do carving, jewelry, and love to study trebuchets
And things went smoothly in the past two days, especially since the hillside was under the execution of the executioner family, and the construction started very quickly.
It's just that what makes Xu Siling a little strange is that Falina is a little strange.
For the past two days, I silently brought the herbs over, and left without staying too long.
