Chapter 165: Nodding Friends! (Seeking Subscription)
The village head filled a glass of wine, stood up, and said to Lu Chen and Muzi:
"Thanks to the help of Mr. Lu and Miss Muzi this time."
"Our village has survived the catastrophe."
"On behalf of all the fathers and folks, I would like to offer you a toast, thank you!"
After finishing speaking, the village chief drank it all in one gulp.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's not a problem, it's not a problem, it's all easy, village chief, you are welcome!"
The village head waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, don't be so polite, don't talk about each village head, it sounds awkward, just call me Uncle Da."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Hahaha, then I'll call him Uncle Da. 233"
Lu Chen watched the village head's family carefully while eating.
The village chief seems to be middle-aged, and there is a little boy sitting on the left, who should be the son of the village chief.
On the right of the village head sits a middle-aged woman who is about the same age as the village head. Lu Chen guesses that it should be the wife of the village head.
In addition, there were several middle-aged people with kind faces on the table.
These people were all dressed in farmer's clothes and dressed casually, but Lu Chen always felt that there was something wrong with them.
These few people are burly, not like farmers, but like martial arts practitioners.
Lu Chen saw that these people didn't look like villagers, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"Who are these?" Lu Chen pointed to the middle-aged men who looked strange, and asked.
"Oh! I forgot to introduce." The village chief paused, "These are representatives of the village."
"Thank you on behalf of those villagers!"
Lu Chen suddenly realized, pretended to smile and said, "Oh, so that's how it is."
"The village head is interested, and thank you for coming, it's too polite!"
After speaking, Lu Chen took the initiative to extend his hand to shake hands.
The few people seemed to be cold for a moment, and then reacted, they pushed the middle-aged man in the middle.
The middle-aged man sitting in the middle stood up quickly.
He held Lu Chen's hand and said with a smile: "No thanks, no thanks, it should be!"
Lu Chen also returned a smiling face, but he snorted coldly in his heart.
He was already confident that these strange middle-aged men were not ordinary people.
They are not farmers, but probably killers or bodyguards.
Because Lu Chen felt the calluses on the middle-aged man's hand when he shook hands.
This kind of callus is not formed by long-term work, but by holding a gun for a long time.
Lu Chen was often exposed to laser guns in the victory team, so he naturally knew this, so the false identity of this middle-aged man could not be hidden from Lu Chen's eyes.
Although this is all Lu Chen's guess, Lu Fu still believes in his own perception.
He thinks there is something wrong with these few people, then there is probably something wrong with these few people.
In fact, as early as when the village head invited me to his house for dinner, I was already a little skeptical.
Although he and Muzi saved the man in their village.
But that person had always been cast aside by the villagers.
In other words, that person is not welcomed by the villagers at all, so naturally he will not be welcomed by the village chief.
So there is absolutely no need for the village chief to thank Lu Chen for an irrelevant, even annoying person.
But this village did just that, not only taking the initiative to invite Lu Chen and Muzi to dinner.
Clean rooms are also prepared, and there are even servants to serve.
If Lu Chen is some kind of relative of the village chief, it would make sense.
But Lu Chen and the village head are no more than nodding acquaintances at most, and they are not familiar with each other, so it is not right for the head to be so enthusiastic.
