Chapter 1633 Melancholy
General Chi himself didn't know the reason.
He walked in accordance to what he wanted and where his own legs would bring him and didn't pay much attention to other things. Somehow, he landed in this village and met with Feng Ao Si, the known stupid commander on the battlefield.
"I'll find furniture to fill it myself. Thank you, First Young Master Feng."
Feng Ao Si was embarrassed by General Chi's politeness. "General Chi, I'm also a commander on the battlefield, so you don't have to be so polite."
"I see, First Commander Feng."
What's the difference between these two?
Feng Ao Si didn't know and decided to go with Sheng Qi Rou. He looked at his wife and then pointed at the large blocks of woods on his back.
"Qi Rou, see, I brought a lot of firewoods~."
Sheng Qi Rou looked at the firewood speechlessly and dragged Feng Ao Si a bit further away from General Chi's place. "What do you want to do with so many firewood? This is not winter yet! I don't need so much."
"But you can keep them first."
"You stupid man!"
"Hey, Qi Rou…"
General Chi could still hear the conversation between the two of them and looked at their departing back.
It was clear from their interaction that the two of them were actually living well with each other and also very polite. Not to mention, the two of them were clearly husband and wife and there was no such thing such as etiquette and many other things hindering them of their interaction.
For a moment, General Chi felt as if he was back to the time when he was young and still busy on the countryside.
He would be able to see the uncles and aunts from next door clamoring with each other. They would fight, laugh, make trouble, and then get along well again with each other. It was very lively and noisy.
This was not the first village that General Chi passed by.
And in every village, he would be able to see these people's liveliness.
It was something that he couldn't see when he was staying on the Capital City and mixed with those nobles. These people would pay attention to etiquette and how to interact with each other.
It was also because of this that he slowly blend with them and learned various etiquette to be able to mix with them.
For so many years, he completely forgotten that he used to be born and live in a lively village like this.
"General…" the servant who followed General Chi called out.
"Find some supplies to stay for the night. We'll be staying here," General Chi said.
"Yes, General!"
To be honest, they brought enough supplies to make tent just like how General Chi used to stay on the frontline. But for some reason, General Chi would visit the village and asked to stay there.
He didn't even enter any city and instead went to these small villages.
His servants didn't understand, but they still followed his order dutifully because it was what a servant like them has to do.
General Chi will stay for the time being.
But for Feng Ao Si, there was no difference between General Chi's presence or not. After all, he was facing his wife's reproach and listened to her about the use of the firewood. There was no need to add so many.
"But if there are a lot of firewood, it means we don't have to cut more trees anytime soon, right?" Feng Ao Si argued.
Sheng Qi Rou looked at her husband speechlessly and then laughed. "Go and put them in the storage room."
"Yes!"
She watched Feng Ao Si ran to the storage room and shook her head. Looking at her garden, she decided to pick more vegetables for today's dinner.
Feng Ao Si put the firewood in the storage room and walked out again. He stretched his hand and then walked to the backyard to take a look at what Dai is doing. Even though this place was technically his and Sheng Qi Rou, but Dai was also helping him from time to time.
"Dai, are you done?"
"Young Master? Don't enter…"
"Huh? Ahhh, let go of my robe! Qi Rou, your fierce chicken is going crazy again!"
Sheng Qi Rou quickly came from the other side and saw Feng Ao Si running with the chicken behind him, clutching onto his back robe. She looked at this chicken speechlessly.
For some reason, her chickens will always attack Feng Ao Si when he came. So the task of feeding the chicken was given to Dai or Sheng Qi Rou, depending who has the free time or whether Sheng Qi Rou was going lazy.
After all, there was a husband accompanying her.
How could she not want to indulge?
Thus, Dai was given more task to do when he was staying with Feng Ao Si.
In Dai's words: life as a servant is really difficult.
"Ao Si, come here!"
"Qi Rou!" Feng Ao Si saw his wife and ran in her direction. It was not like he couldn't do anything to this annoying chicken, but his strength was too big! If he retaliated, he was afraid that this chicken will die in his hand.
After all, Feng Ao Si was not sure how much strength he should use when dealing with small animal like this.
Life is really difficult.
But soon, laughter rang in the yard and Dai, who planned to help, turned around to avoid looking at picture he shouldn't see.
"It's really lively." General Chi had a faint smile when he looked in Feng Ao Si's direction. He had seen the commotion and found that the children were indeed very lively.
The servant who followed General Chi looked at the general and then said, "First Commanders Feng is known for his simple minded thoughts. It's said that he had made a mistake in the last war but with the help of his younger brother, he would be able to return to the battlefield again soon."
"Simple minded, huh?" General Chi smiled wryly.
