Chapter 66
"What's going on?" Qingxian, who was in a good mood, suddenly turned dark.

"Too small and incompetent." Li Ce replied with a bow, "Our people have been searching for two days. Yangliu Town has not come to traffic people recently. On the contrary, they found that the Ma family recently bought a lot of little girls under the pretext of recruiting maids."

"The Ma family? The Ma family that sells grain?" Qingxian rubbed his chin. "Did you buy it from Ren Yazi?"

The Ma family specializes in the rice noodle business.There are only three young masters and no daughters in the family.If you want to buy a maid, at most it is brought by an acquaintance.This big buyer is a bit odd.

"The Ma family said to go out to buy maids. Ren Yazi must have gone, and some tenant farmers outside the city also brought their daughters."

At this time, it's not like a famine year.In fact, buying and selling people is hiring people.When a girl goes in as a maid, she has to be 15 to sign in.The family saved money on food and clothing, and many who couldn't make it through were willing to send their children there.

"Do you know where everyone is?"

Li Ce looked at Su Genliang and said, "They were all sent to Zhuangzi outside the city." "We also found out that Su Genquan from the Su family sent a fox to Young Master Ma a few days ago."

"Fox?" Qingxian laughed. "The Ma family is indeed rich and powerful. They buy maids and foxes. Are you ready? Let's go to Zhuangzi tonight."

"I'll go too!" Su Genliang clenched his fists tightly, wanting to settle accounts with Su Genquan.

While Su Genliang was discussing with Qingxian, a carriage arrived at Ma's house.It didn't stop in front of the door, but went directly to the door and stopped in front of the patio of the hall.

Master Ma has been waiting for a long time.He has only one dry word.He looked to be in his early twenties.Already a prestigious young paddy boss.

Before the carriage stopped, Ma Gan smiled and opened the bamboo curtain on the carriage.The bamboo curtain looks black and purple.Of course, it is not an ordinary variety, but made of Ziyun bamboo shipped from Qiongzhou.

"Uncle Shi", Ma Gan greeted the scholar who got off the carriage with a smile, "My nephew welcomes Uncle Shi."

The scholar wore a plain old black cotton gown.The jade crown on his head is soft, delicate and complete.The end is carved from a whole piece of Hetian jade.He was only about 30 years old, and his face was pale.He looked around with a pair of slender Danfeng eyes, and then gently returned the gift.

"Nephew, you're welcome." This person is Master Shen.The Ma family is an old acquaintance of the county magistrate Chen.After two encounters with Master Shen, they found the intersection of their ancestors.According to legend, an uncle of the Ma family who transported grain to southern Fujian once had an intersection with the Shen family.From the perspective of seniority, Master Shen and Master Ma, who is in his 50s, are cousins, and Master Ma has become Master Shen's nephew.

"This rice trip is worth it. Zhuangzi is small, but it's just a spring scene." Accompanied by Master Ma, Master Shen glanced at the yard.Outside the Zhuangzi, there are the Ma family's tenants and farmers, but inside the Zhuangzi, there are other secrets.Although there are only three entrances, he built a garden in the south of the Yangtze River with "rocks and springs, flower willows and fish".

At this time, the spring color is getting better and better.It is also delightful to see forgetfulness.Young Master Ma bowed triumphantly, pretending to be modest, and said: "Uncle Meng Shi praised you. Drinking water today, how about drinking here today?"

Master Shen smiled and nodded in response.The young master of the Ma family ordered the left and right to prepare these.He personally took Master Shen to the third courtyard to rest.
