Looking at the expressions of the two of them, the housekeeper seemed to have regained some face and joked with a smile, "Why are you so happy?"
Xuanwen calmed down his expression and smiled broadly, "Of course I'm happy. If I can really serve the Duke and earn a monthly salary and become successful, I will definitely have to thank you."
People all like to hear beautiful words.
Xuanwen's words made the housekeeper so happy that the pain in his buttocks became much lighter.
The three of them talked and laughed along the way, and after a while, they stopped in front of a yard.
"This is the courtyard where the nursing staff live. They all have bungalows. But this time we are recruiting guards after all, and the treatment is better. You two brothers can live in one room alone, and the monthly salary is higher than them."
As the housekeeper spoke, he pushed open the courtyard door and saw a few people sitting in the courtyard. He immediately frowned and asked in a loud voice, "What are you doing hanging around here?"
The men quickly stood up, looking flattering and saying, "Manager Lu, our brothers have a day off today. The sun is just right, so we just wanted to sit in the courtyard."
Manager Lu snorted coldly and put on airs, "Where are the remaining people?"
"They all went to inspect the mansion." The man bent down and asked cautiously, "Manager Lu, did you send them to do something? I will call someone for you right now..."
"No need." Manager Lu waved his hand, pointed at the man, and said casually, "Come here, practice with these two brothers, and let me see their kung fu."
The man paused and looked at the Xuan brothers with doubts.
Xuanwen nodded politely in response, while Xuanwu beside him ignored him at all and just kept his head down and picking at his nails.
The man didn't know their details and didn't dare to come forward for a while.
Xuanwen only had the task given by his wife in his mind. When he saw the man dawdling, he felt anxious and took two steps forward. "Brother, please try your best to show me the boss. We two brothers are new to the capital. We want to have a good relationship." Let’s live a solid life with just a living to eat.”
Hearing this, the man still hesitated, "This..."
Manager Lu's patience was exhausted, and he frowned and scolded, "A grown man, mother-in-law, doesn't even dare to take action. Why does the Duke's government support you?"
The man shrank his neck, looked at Xuanwen, and said, "Brother, I'm sorry."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man clenched his fists, shouted loudly, and attacked Xuanwen.
The man's posture looked terrifying, but in fact he had no skills at all and relied solely on brute force. At first glance, he didn't appear to be a skilled practitioner.
Although Xuanwen is also a three-legged cat, it is more than enough to get rid of him.
When the man rushed in front of him, Xuanwen kicked him in the chest and kicked the man away. Without waiting for his reaction, he swooped down again and landed on the man. His raised fist was about to fall down.
"Brother!" The man covered his chest with one hand and bent his arms to cover his face, "Be merciful!"
Seeing this, Xuanwen smiled sheepishly, and hurriedly helped the man up, comforting him, "Are you okay..."
The man shook his head, clutched his chest and kept retreating, determined to distance himself from Xuanwen.
Seeing him like this, Xuanwen couldn't help but look at Manager Lu aside in embarrassment.
"The response is very fast." Manager Lu nodded with satisfaction and raised his chin towards Xuanwu beside him, "Go ahead and pick someone to practice with."
Xuanwu rubbed his belly that was screaming crazily. He just wanted to cook and pointed at someone at random, "Just him."
The man's hand covering his chest paused, a trace of panic flashed across his face, and he said with a smile, "Little brother, are you a little confused about people? I was just kicked by that brother..."
"Really?" Xuanwu scratched his head, moved his fingertips to the side, and whispered, "Then it's you."
The chosen man smiled bitterly, roared to embolden himself, raised his fist, and charged towards Xuanwu.
"Flower fists and embroidered legs."
Xuanwu sneered, and when the man rushed towards him, he easily waved away his fist, straightened his belly, and knocked the man back two steps. Before the man in front of him could react, he raised his hand and punched him on the shoulder.
The force was so strong that it made the man spin twice before he could regain his footing.
The Xuan brothers, no matter how careless they are, were carefully selected by Northwest. How could Northwest send two people to escort Granny Yuan if they didn't have some time to spare?
"Is it over?"
"...Come with me." Manager Lu's mouth twitched. Although it was somewhat different from what he thought, it could be seen that the two of them did have two skills.
Seeing Manager Lu speak, the Xuan brothers looked at each other and heaved a sigh of relief.
The past few days were not like humans or ghosts, so it was not in vain, and I successfully completed the errands ordered by the madam.

Yongcheng Houfu
Upstairs, Fang Xu and Granny Yuan were sitting together, looking at the old man and young man in front of them in great surprise.
"You look familiar..." Fang Xu pointed at the young man in front of him and raised his eyebrows, "Have I seen you somewhere?"
"I'm afraid Madam has forgotten that it was Madam who saved me that day at Shunyi Bank." The young man took off his velvet hat, revealing his handsome face with a bright smile.
Fang Xu was surprised for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's you, kid. I'm surprised that your facial features look familiar to me."
Yun Heng grinned. He had not seen him for two months and was much calmer than before.
"Aren't you working as a waiter at Wantong Escort Agency?" Fang Xu sat at the top with a dignified posture and a slight smile on his face. "Why are you here?"
Hearing this, a bit of embarrassment flashed across Yun Heng's face. He lowered his head and explained in a low voice, "The original boss thought I was a troublemaker... he didn't want me anymore, and even Uncle Qi, the old escort, was kicked out. "
"Bodyguard?" Fang Xu raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on the man beside him, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, "I think you must be pretty good."
Before Uncle Qi could say anything, Yun Heng on the side nodded heavily, "That's right! Madam, Uncle Qi has been a bodyguard for more than 20 years, and he has traveled all over the world, all relying on this skill!"
"Shut up." Uncle Qi glanced at him and scolded in a low voice, "In front of Mrs. Yongchenghou, why do you have the right to speak so freely?"
Yun Heng pursed his lips and lowered his head aggrievedly.
Uncle Qi ignored him, looked up at Fang Xu, and said in a more submissive tone, "Don't blame me, Madam Hou, my little apprentice is a bit naughty."
"We lost our escort and were kicked out by the Wantong Escort Bureau." Uncle Qi lowered his head slightly and his voice was a little lower. "Now we have nowhere to go, and we happened to see the nursing home in the house, so we thought of coming. Take a chance.”
"If it causes you any trouble, we will immediately..."
"Why bother?" Fang Xu interrupted him with a smile, and asked softly, "The old escort from Wantong Escort Bureau came to my house just to be a nurse. I'm afraid he is showing off his talents."
Uncle Qi paused, and a trace of vigilance flashed across his face, "What does Mrs. Hou mean by this?" (End of Chapter)
