I was beheaded in the Middle Ages for 20 years

Chapter 80 I feel uneasy

Although not every knight's apprentice can become a knight when he grows up, in the current environment, being an apprentice to a knight is indeed the right path for the few who are expected to become a knight.

Not to mention that Henry obviously knew how much Feier thought highly of Xu Siling, so sending his son to Xu Siling would also increase the relationship between him and Xu Siling.

This is also considered a favor transaction between adults.

Xu Siling thought about it and found no reason to refuse. He accepted Vali as a knight's apprentice, which gave him an extra manpower to dispatch. He only needed to provide Vali with food and accommodation. It didn't matter if he gave him more or less salary. Anyway, his guardian His father helped him earn weapons.

"Let him come to me in three days."

Henry smiled happily and patted Vali's head hard.

"Thank you so much! Vali, thank you very much, Lord Knight."

Vali quickly lowered his head to thank, while Xu Siling waved his hand, said hello and left with his servants and others.

After Xu Siling left, Vali curiously asked Henry.

"Father, wasn't he an executioner before? Although he became a knight, he was still a knight without a fief, I think."

Before he could finish speaking, Henry gave Valli a hard blow on the back of his head.

"Boy, please listen to me. Don't hang out with those mud-legged friends, and don't listen to them talking about Xu. He is still the executioner now, and he is also Miss Raya's knight. Even if he has not been granted a fief, but He will definitely become Miss Raya’s unswerving supporter, and Miss Raya also trusts him.”

"I pray to your master, the knight, that he will teach you the real thing. Not long ago, Enri had three duels with Xu, and Enri lost them all. If you don't believe in Xu's strength, how can you not believe in Enri's?"

"Sister Anli lost three times!?" Unlike Henry, Vali didn't have a well-developed source of information. Hearing that Anli couldn't beat Xu Siling, his view of Xu Siling changed a lot.

In the eyes of children, only status and strength are everything they know.

Although Xu Siling was a knight and an executioner, the child could not completely change his mind. But if Xu Siling was superb in sword fighting, that was another matter.

"Although after Xu defeated Enri, he only said that Enri had not recovered before losing to him, but those of us who know the real sword fighting skills, how can we not see how Enri lost."

Henry thought of something and patted Wally on the head again: "Forget it, why are I telling you this? Let's have a party today and have fun. Anyway, stop talking about your knight master and serve him well. If he If you are willing to teach you, you will be prosperous."

"Ok!"

Xu Siling returned to the house on the hillside with a group of servants. He scratched his head in the yard.

His house is actually very big. The whole layout is divided into two houses, a stable and a weed pile.

In addition to the main house, another room has been used as a large storage room for him. In order to prepare for the arrival of the Black Death, he bought all the materials he could buy, just in case he would need it in the future.

In Ella's words, he could even open a grocery store.

The stable was built when the adoptive father was still alive. They raised a farm horse and occasionally raised grain to supplement the family income. Later, the adoptive father died on the road and the horse disappeared on the road.

The stable was then converted into a torture room and utility room by Xu Siling.

It is more than enough for two or three people to live here, but now that the groom, cook and three servants are included, the living space is completely insufficient.

The main house can be divided into separate areas for sleeping, which is normal in the current environment, but this makes Xu Siling feel very uncomfortable.

The groom was more knowledgeable than others and came to Xu Siling to ask.

"Sir, are you worried about anything?"

"I didn't feel anything before, but now I find that the place I live in is still too small."

"That's easy. You can expand the yard and build a few new houses."

To put it simply, it all costs money. Although he is not short of money now, like Mayfair said, there are too many places to spend money after becoming a knight, so he has to save his budget.

"Sir, you are worried about the budget." The groom smiled flatteringly. "Actually, you can find someone to come over first. There are too many people waiting for construction in Raya Town. As long as there is work, they are willing to do it. As for the money, with your In name, you can owe it first, and then pay it to them when you feel better one day."

Xu Siling's tactical retreat, is this the benefit of crossing the status line?He had forgotten that after becoming a knight, he could do whatever he wanted.

But doing so would be too disrespectful.

Just as he was thinking about what to do, two horses came towards him from the hillside. The men were wearing hoods and cloaks, and there were a lot of supplies stored behind the horses.

Xu Siling recognized it at a glance. It was Aila who had returned from Tamubao.

Also following back was Ella's brother Terry.

Terry was a little surprised to see so many people in the yard and how Xu Siling was dressed.

"Terry, you didn't encounter any trouble on the way here."

Speaking of this, Terry's expression immediately changed, showing irritation.

"This road is going crazy. Taking the main road, I bumped into three waves of bandits. If I hadn't been in a hurry to send Ella back, I would have dealt with these pig-headed losers."

"As long as nothing happens, just take a rest."

The groom was very sensible and stepped forward to lead the horse. Terry and Ella dismounted. He asked curiously.

"It's you, why are there so many people in the yard dressed like this?"

Ella looked around with her gray eyes, her expression blank, and she didn't say anything. She just silently took things from behind the horse and prepared to take them back to the house.

"Help her."

Xu Siling ordered, and the servants immediately took action after hearing this, and snatched the work from Ella's hands in one fell swoop.

Ella felt strange in her heart, but she still sat down on the bench in the yard. Wearing a hood and cloak, she took out a piece of bread from her arms and ate it.

"How did the Lord of Tamubao reply to you?"

Xu Siling did not answer Terry's question. He was more concerned about Tamubao's reaction now.

Terry shook his head: "I haven't even seen Mr. Hamis in person. Anyway, the news he got was that he told me to get out. If there is any problem, let Mr. Johns from Raya Town come to him."

The news didn't spread so quickly, and the people in Tamubao didn't understand that John was dead and that the lord in charge of Raya Town was already Mayer.

Hamis has always dealt with Johns, so naturally he is not interested in the child Mayfair.

And the letter written by the godfather was only a suggestion and did not condemn him, so he didn't care even more.

The witch hunting operation in Tamubao was indeed important, but he was not in a hurry to go back to Raya Town and tell Faile. He already had other plans in mind.

Anyway, it would be good to know Tamubao’s attitude.

"You haven't told me yet why so many people suddenly appeared in your yard, dressed like regular soldiers. It made me feel so uncomfortable that I almost took them off."

As Terry was about to take action, Xu Siling couldn't laugh or cry.

"You're going too far, don't pull my collar like that."

"You are my brother-in-law, nothing is too much."

"I'm a knight now, so it's normal to dress like this."

"A knight is not a knight."

As soon as he finished speaking, Terry couldn't help but froze in his movements, and asked with a strange look on his face.

"What did you say?"

"I was just canonized as a knight today, so it's not unusual to have a few servants dressed like this."

Ella looked at Xu Siling with an indifferent expression, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her gray eyes. "My God, is it true! You actually became a knight? You won't lie to me, how can an executioner become a knight? Give me a slap in the face and tell me I'm dreaming!"

Xu Siling pushed Terry away from him and came to sit next to Ella.

Terry came to his senses and quickly moved to the bench. Instead, he pulled Ella up from the bench and scolded her.

"I just know how to eat and find things to do to keep busy."

Ella didn't feel anything or was angry. She stuffed the uneaten bread back into her arms and started looking for something to do.

Seeing this behavior, Xu Siling couldn't help but frown, feeling a little uncomfortable inside.

Terry sat next to Xu Siling and said with a smile: "Xu, my good brother-in-law, please tell me how you became a knight."

"Terry, treat Ella better."

"Ella? What's wrong with her?"

"Be nice to her."

Terry was stunned for a moment: "She is stupid. It's not like you don't understand her situation. She has nothing but good looks. What's the use of being nice to her? Let her work more and give you more children. real."

"Then let me tell you one thing clearly. Since I have become a knight, Ella's status will be different. You are doing this to my disgrace."

Terry could accept it and scratched his head: "Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is."

In this environment, who's to say Terry is wrong.

But Xu Siling was really uncomfortable inside.

Xu Siling quickly called Ella to her side, who was about to work, and asked her to squeeze in and sit next to him.

Seeing Ella being so favored, Terry felt a little weird inside.

Then Xu Siling started to tell Terry that after becoming Mayfair's follower, he was canonized as a knight today. After talking about everything, Terry looked grim and couldn't believe it.

"You were already Miss Raya's attendant before?! And now Lord John of Raya Town is dead. The management of Raya Town is in the hands of Miss Raya. And today, Miss Raya canonized you as a knight. ?!my God."

When Ella heard everything, she just frowned slightly and then didn't speak. She felt a little weird inside.

"I am Miss Raya's follower. You didn't even ask me before, just left Ella here and ran away."

Terry fell into a state of doubting life, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

He was born in a family of executioners, and he knew very well what the executioner's current situation was.

If you want human rights but don’t have human rights, except for good welfare and a lot of gray income, and no need to worry about food and drink, you are no longer relevant to other people.

If you go into a town, you will be disliked. No one wants to be your friend. Whatever you do, you will be opposed and cursed.

If anything weird or unexplainable happens, the executioner will also become the target of venting his emotions.

He understands very well how difficult it is for the executioner.

So Xu Siling became a follower of a nobleman, which was already great, and now he became a knight of a nobleman. To Terry, it was no different from the collapse of the sky.

I don't know what Terry thought clearly. When he came back to his senses, he quickly grabbed Xu Siling's shoulders with both hands.

"Brother-in-law! No, my noble knight, I have a proposal!"

"what."

"I want to move the Frofen family to Raya Town. How about that?"

Xu Siling leaned back tactically.

Damn, that's too much.

The head-grabbing is done to the face.

This is just a slap in the face.

Seeing Xu Siling didn't answer, Terry quickly explained.

"Think about it, we are all executioners, and we all understand your difficulties. Look again, when you become a knight, you have no one to help you with advice, and no one to help you take care of your family. But you have us!"

As he spoke, Terry patted Xu Siling on the shoulder: "We are in-laws and others will look down on us, but we won't. We help each other and this is how we can live a better life, right?"

"To become a knight, do you need to spend money to organize your own armed forces, or train knight apprentices? Although you can recruit some people from Raya Town, can you guarantee how sincere the hearts of those people are? We will not It’s the same, we have a close relationship, we will face difficulties together, we are blessed.”

It has to be said that Terry's proposal made Xu Siling a little excited.

To say that the Frofen family is being moved to Raya Town is to put it mildly.

To put it bluntly, he just wants to annex the Frofen family to his name, so that he can use his name as a knight to do good things and live a good life. Especially knowing that Mayfair in Raya Town is so friendly to the executioner, of course he is attracted by Raya Town right now. environment of.

Moreover, having the Frofen family vassalized under his name would bring him considerable benefits.

Many troublesome matters can be dealt with by Frofen, and he will have more strength.

"Your father Ximei doesn't even know about this. How can you make the decision? Moreover, when you move to Raya Town, are you not afraid of Mr. Khamis's objections?"

"My father will persuade me. As for Hamis, what does he have to say! Anyway, I don't have much to do now. I just wait for him to catch the witches every day, and I haven't tortured them yet." Terry sneered, "Witches Witch. Got crazy, there really is a witch, and Hamis’s head was the first one to be picked off by the witch.”

After the groom settled the horses, he approached with a flattering smile.

"Excuse me, sir. What do you think about expanding the yard?"

Before Xu Siling could respond, Terry was extremely excited.

"Brother-in-law, do you want to find someone to expand the yard? Leave it to me and I will arrange it. It won't cost you a penny."

"you"

At this moment, Ella suddenly pulled Xu Siling's hand. Turning her head, she signaled Xu Siling to agree.

Good guy, you kid just loves to trick your own family, right?

"Okay Terry, please."

Terry laughed and motioned to the groom to bring the horse over.

"I'm going back now to tell my father about this! I pray that those blind bandits don't show up again and don't force me to kill them when I'm happiest."

It was obvious that Terry was very excited and he rode away at full speed.

The groom didn't know much about the Frofen family, and in the end he didn't dare to ask more questions, so he had to hide in the stable.

Xu Siling turned to look at Ella next to her. Ella took off her hood. Her hair was as black as lacquer, her gray eyes were as deep as lake water, and her face was very pretty, but her expression was expressionless.

"Are you hungry."

Ella nodded, but then shook her head.

"Husband, that nobleman has evil intentions against you."

Xu Siling didn't know how to react. He just smiled and shook his head: "What kind of evil intentions are you thinking about?"

"She's so nice to you, I feel uneasy."
