Trafford Buyers Club

Chapter 693 A man's day
A total of fifteen well-equipped light feet, and two other samurai with the name of the family, as well as five entourages, one maid, and Ms. Tsukihime from the Kondo family were traveling. In the eyes of the two samurai Can't use hyperbole to describe it...even saying it is far from enough!
Although such a lineup is enough to deal with ordinary bandits, it is far from enough if you encounter evil monsters... This is an era full of monsters so far.

"Miss Yueji, you have already entered Waseda Village." A samurai from the family came to the carriage.

Zixing opened the curtain and saw the tenant farmers who were working in the rice field next to him, but at this moment they looked at him in amazement, so he ordered: "You call one of them over, I have something to ask."

"Yes!" The samurai nodded and rode his horse to the side of the paddy field.

Not long after, the samurai of the family came back with a panicked but calm middle-aged tenant farmer, "Answer Miss Yueji's question well!"

"Yes... yes, my lord!" The tenant did not even dare to raise his head, and knelt down in front of the carriage.

Zi Xing has nothing to do with such a move... As a real monster and the proud young master of the Greedy Wolf Clan, she is a respected existence—she has seen too much of the clansmen's kneeling, not to mention just ignorance of humans.

"Where is Nagato's house?" Zixing asked directly.

The tenant farmer hurriedly said: "It's just ahead, about three miles away..."

The tenant farmer said it carefully, for fear of being a little wrong, he really couldn't figure out who would go to Master Nagato... Looking at the support of the team, it was even more prestigious than Master Nagato's family.

Zi Xing quickly nodded, waved for the warrior to take him down, and then ordered another warrior in front to head towards Nagato's house.

"This is your reward!"

The samurai dropped some money in front of the tenant farmer, and the tenant farmer naturally took it with both hands in gratitude, and then watched the group of people leave slowly.

It's just that the tenant farmer looked at the rather heavy small purse in his hand, but he couldn't be happy when he should have been happy.He shook his head, and casually threw the money bag into the basket, and put it beside the paddy field, not afraid that someone would steal it away.

For the people in Zaidao Village, more wealth is not as good as three meals a day—after all, they cannot leave the village.

And in the village, they are already self-sufficient... There is nothing to aspire to.

……

Nagato's house, mansion.

When Tsukihime Kondo's convoy stopped in front of the door, he had already seen Mr. Nagato and a group of people standing in front of the door... Some of the servants even showed a hint of haste, wanting to welcome them like this , has not been prepared.

"You are the head of the Nagato family?"

The samurai of the Kondo family took a step forward and asked domineeringly.

Master Nagato nodded respectfully, and said quickly: "I didn't know that Miss Yueji was coming. It's just that the servants saw the Kondo family's family emblem from a distance and came to report, so they hurriedly led the people to welcome them."

However, in a very short period of time, so many people can gather and go out to greet them one after another. Although it seems untidy, it is already passable.The samurai from the Kondo family probably knew this too, so he didn't blame him too much. Instead, he hummed proudly, and then ordered: "Miss Yueji plans to stay here for a few days, you go and prepare."

Master Nagato naturally didn't dare to disobey, and quickly ordered his servants to clean up the last room—he had to do this, because the Kondo family was a big family that owned the entire Famen Mountain and had fiefdoms.And the place near Waseda Village obtained by the Nagato family was also obtained by the ancestors from the rewards of the Kondo family.

Speaking of which, the surname of Nagato was also bestowed by the Kondo family-so, how dare the Nagato family say no to Miss Tsukihime's request from the Kondo family?
It's just...how did this lofty Princess Yueji suddenly come to such a remote place?
Master Changmen frowned deeply because of this... He subconsciously thought of Changmen Sanlang, could it be because of Sanlang's matter... Fortunately, after getting the servant's report, he quickly asked Changmen Sanlang to avoid it for the time being , so he is not here.

Nagato Saburo claimed that he was injured on the battlefield, so he was ordered by the coach to go home to recuperate. Master door?

Everything is nothing but a lie of Nagato Saburo, a deserter on the battlefield.

But even though he already knew all this, in order to maintain the reputation of the Nagato clan, Master Nagato had no choice but to cover up his identity as a deserter.

As the head of the Nagato family, Master Nagato is almost the only person who is qualified to lead the princess of the Kondo family—but despite this, Master Nagato still dare not walk side by side with Tsukihime Kondo, but is slightly slower The distance is half a step away... In this era, the hierarchy is extremely strict, and he does not dare to go beyond half a step... Even if it is only a woman in front of him.

"I don't know why Miss Yueji came here in person?" Master Changmen asked cautiously.

Kondo Tsukihime... Zixing was just looking at the courtyard outside the corridor, and seemed unwilling to answer Master Nagato's question.At this moment, Zixing stopped suddenly, and said indifferently: "Who is that?"

In the courtyard, a little girl was squatting by the pond, and beside the little girl was a maid.Master Nagato saw it, and immediately lowered his head and said: "Miss Hui Yueji, that's Hezi, it's... the daughter of my younger brother Saburo."

"Crane... Changmen Crane?" Zixing whispered the name.

"It's the crane from Nagato, Miss Yueji." Master Nagato quickly responded... Although he didn't know why the princess of the Kondo family would ask such questions knowingly, but he couldn't ignore the words of the princess of the Kondo family.

I heard that the head of the Kondo family intends to choose a husband-in-law for Miss Yueji... Of course, it is impossible for this husband-in-law to get everything from the Kondo family, but their child has this qualification!

So if...

"Crane!"

At this time, Master Nagato suddenly yelled, and then waved his hands, as if he wanted Crane to come over, but he didn't expect that the little girl hid behind the maid instead, and only dared to poke out half of her head, looking timidly. .

Master Changmen frowned, and saw that Miss Yueji's expression was calm, and she didn't seem to be unhappy at all, so he hurriedly said: "Miss Yueji, forgive me, Hezi is still young and doesn't know etiquette. Discipline him well. However, I can assure you that it's not because Hezi doesn't like Ms. Yueji, she's just a little afraid of strangers. This child has no mother since he was a child, and he hasn't been well taken care of, so in terms of personality..."

Zixing said indifferently: "Is she really just afraid of my stranger?"

Master Nagato met the eyes of Miss Yue Ji, who was rumored to be weak, but her eyes were a bit fiercer than the head of the Kondo family he saw when he was young... Could it be that the rumors error?
Zi Xing's words made Master Changmen feel overwhelmed. Master Changmen's eyes turned quickly, and a servant from the Changmen family came in front of him, and he said quickly: "Miss Yueji, the room has been tidied up. Clean, please come with me."

"Yeah." Zixing flicked his sleeves and walked in front.

Master Changmen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but waved to the maid in the courtyard, telling the maid to take him away with Changmen Hezi as soon as possible.

At this time, Master Changmen also called another servant, and whispered: "Hurry up and let Shen Er come over! Remember to make him dress neatly, don't be ashamed!"

After finishing the order, he hurriedly chased after him... As for Changmen Saburo, since he greeted him, Master Changmen once again told his servants to tell him not to show up.

Not many people know about Nagato Saburo as a deserter, and in this age when consultation is not well-developed, as long as the news is well sealed, it may be possible to keep it secret. Afraid of leaking the wind.

"This Miss Yueji... is hard to deal with!"

Thinking back to the way Kondo Tsukihime looked at him just now, Master Nagato couldn't help but look a little dignified, thinking of all the possibilities of the princess's arrival, he was naturally very irritable.

Not long after, Zixing had settled down.

At this time, Master Changmen was kneeling and sitting in front of Zixing, with lowered eyes, quietly listening to the orders of this great man.Zixing asked indifferently: "Master Nagato, I wonder if there are any people from other villages in Zaidao Village recently?"

"From outside the village?" Master Changmen raised his head and asked cautiously: "I don't know why Miss Yueji asked such a question?"

"You just answer me."

Master Changmen said slowly: "As far as I know, there is no such thing. Zaodao Village is almost at the end of Famen Mountain. Even traveling merchants rarely come back."

"Are you sure?" Zixing looked at Master Nagato again and asked.

It was this kind of gaze again... this kind of gaze that seemed to be looking down from above the clouds.For some reason, Master Changmen’s heart trembled slightly, so he lowered his head and said: "Maybe there is not necessarily... After all, I can’t always pay attention to the way into the village. But Miss Yueji, don’t worry, I will order someone to go to the village right away. Let me ask... I wonder if Miss Yueji wants to find someone?"

"If there are people from other villages coming in these few days, or there are already people from other villages in the village, please bring them to see me." Zixing didn't bother to talk much, so he ordered them directly.

"Yes!" Master Nagato nodded quickly in agreement.

At this time, a servant pushed open the door, knelt all the way to Master Changmen's ear, whispered a few words, and Master Changmen said seriously: "Miss Yueji, it's a dog. He is outside , want to see you."

"No need." Zixing waved his hand: "I'm tired and want to rest, don't let unnecessary people bother me."

"This..." Master Nagato suddenly hesitated.

But the samurai of the Kondo family said in a deep voice at this moment: "Nagato! Didn't you hear Tsukihime-sama's order? Still not backing down!"

"Yes……"

Master Nagato could only leave respectfully, unable to resist the huge power of the Kondo family at all.Outside the door, Nagato Shinji frowned, and when he was about to ask, Master Nagato scolded, "Go back!"

Nagato Shinji seemed to want to say something, but under the terrifying gaze of Master Nagato, he finally clenched his fist.

He didn't dare to go with his father, so he could only leave the yard from the other side by himself... But after walking two steps, he saw his uncle, Nagato Saburo.

"Uncle, why are you here?" Nagato Shinji asked inexplicably... He heard some news from his servants, it seemed that his father told this uncle not to show his face for the time being.

"It's ugly, isn't it?" Nagato Saburo had a gloating expression on his face at this moment.

"Uncle Sanlang, what exactly do you want to say?" Nagato Shinji frowned... He didn't like this uncle very much, especially after he came back from the battlefield.

Nagato Saburo shook his head: "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about your father. When he came out from Miss Kondo's house just now, his face must have been ugly."

"Uncle Sanlang, I don't think we should discuss father here." Nagato Shinji still frowned: "You shouldn't talk about the head of the Nagato family, this is a crime of disrespect! Also, Uncle Sanlang, you are covered in alcohol. Come on, let's go back and rest."

At this time, Nagato Saburo, with his face full of hair roots, was leaning against the wall, holding a wine jug in his hand, his clothes were open, like those wanderers who hang around in Huajie and Liuxiang.

Changmen Sanlang took a sip from the wine bottle, squinted his eyes as if he was enjoying it, and then said with a strange smile: "Here, my elder brother is the sky, with absolute right to speak, and the entire Changmen family can't go against him. But, After all, he is still too young this day. When the little sky meets the big sky, that's... that's the only way to go. Shen Er, see clearly, your father is not as strong and perfect as you imagined. "

"Uncle Saburo, you are really drunk!" Nagato Shinji said with a serious tone.

"Really?" Nagato Saburo continued to smile strangely, but started to walk staggeringly, "Maybe... living here, sometimes it's better to be a little confused. I'm too sober, but..."

On the contrary, Nagato Shinji couldn't hear what was said later... Maybe Nagato Saburo had something to say.

Seeing Nagato Saburo finally disappear at the end of the corridor, Nagato Shinji subconsciously recalled his father's exasperated expression just now.

Is it too young...

Nagato Shinji was distracted secretly, but suddenly he felt his clothes being torn by something, and when he looked back, he found that it was Nagato Crane.

The little girl only reached the height of his waist. At this time, she held his sleeve with her little hand, "Play with me..."

"Go away!" Nagato Shinji suddenly waved away Tsuruko's hand.

The Changmen Crane screamed in pain, and mist began to emerge from the frightened eyes. Changmen Shen'er was agitated, and kicked the Changmen Crane to the ground, and the Changmen Crane rolled down from the floor , rolled into the courtyard outside the promenade.

"Ah...Miss Hezi!"

The maid ran over in panic and helped the Nagato crane that had been kicked to the ground, only to see a smear of bright red on the forehead of the Nagato crane... It was the wound caused by hitting the forehead on the gravel when it landed.

"Master Shen Er, Ms. Tsuruko is still young, so she bumped into you..." The maid held Nagato Tsuruko, tremblingly looking at the heir of the Nagato family.

"Hmph!" Nagato Shinji said coldly: "Woman, don't get out! Stay in the room properly!"

After finishing speaking, Nagato Shinji flung his sleeves and left.

"Miss Hezi, are you alright? Come on, I'll take you back to get bandaged!" The maid then put down Nagato Tsuruko, hurriedly arranged Nagato Tsuruko's clothes, and kept crying: "Really, how can I treat you like this... Really... Really, does it hurt?"

"Axiu, play with me."

Blood left from Changmen Crane's forehead, fell from between her eyebrows, and split at the bridge of her nose, like the zigzag water veins on the map.

Maid... Axiu looked at her, and when her nose was sore, she hugged the long-door crane tightly, and said with a sob: "Okay, Axiu will play with Miss Hezi."

……

……

Zixing was sitting quietly in the room, when a warrior opened the door, knelt in the corridor outside the door, and said solemnly: "Master Yueji, we found a peeper outside!"

Zixing slowly opened his eyes, frowning slightly, "Peeper? Is he from the Nagato family?"

The samurai hurriedly said: "No, this person calls himself Kojiro Sasaki..."
