Chapter 430 Matchmaker again!

Compared with the panic on the Chang'an city wall, the Ma family's Chinese military tent was a happy and lively scene.

There are coal stoves burning around the big tent, and a bonfire in the center to roast the whole sheep, the temperature is enough to drive away the cold of early winter.Not to mention, everyone in the big tent is actually drinking distilled wine that can definitely keep the cold away.

"Nephew, although you are not very old, you have fought a lot of battles. If you eat meat and drink like this, aren't you afraid that Chang'an soldiers will attack the camp in the middle of the night?" Rigu Deji stared at the whole sheep on the fire rack. Sizzling grease, one drop after another splashed in the middle of the campfire, causing the flames to jump violently, and the halazi almost flowed out of the mouth.

"It doesn't matter!" Ma Chao, who was sitting in the main seat, waved his big hand very boldly, and said rudely: "If Lu Bu or Xu Rong defended the city, I would be more careful. But those who can only brag to the sky, but don't even dare Kill the scholars and defend the city, hehe..."

Although this is said, in fact, the main combat forces under Ma Chao, such as Pound's Xiliang cavalry, Xu Huang's heavy armored cavalry, Gao Shun's heavy armored infantry and trapped camp, and Zhang Liao's Yanbei cavalry, are all According to Ma Chao's instructions, he has strictly guarded the Ma family's camp.

However, Ma Chao knew that in front of these elders of the Qiang nationality, he had to be quiet when he should be quiet, and it was easier to draw each other's feelings closer.After finishing speaking, Ma Chao dipped the sauce that he had prepared by himself with a homemade brush, and carefully brushed it on the roast lamb.

At this time, the fat of the roasted lamb was mixed with the Ma family's secret sauce, and then roasted by the flame, the aroma immediately wafted out, causing everyone in the big tent to salivate.

"Nephew, tell your aunt, what good thing did you put in this sauce that smells so good?" Naturally, it was Baima Qiang Zhong Yuqiang's wife who spoke.I saw that she didn't care about the defenses of men and women in the Han Dynasty, lying beside Ma Chao, and sniffed the sauce in Ma Chao's hand.

"Auntie, these things are all good things I got from the Western Regions." Ma Chao is no longer a virgin. To be honest, he is very fond of Zhong Yuqiang, a mature woman in her early thirties who is full of alien wildness. Feeling.However, seeing that Zhong Yuqiang's face turned dark, he took the initiative to hand over the sauce in his hand to Zhong Yuqiang's wife, avoiding the intimate contact between the two, and continued: "But auntie, don't worry, these things I have already saved the seeds, and next year they will grow in Fufeng Field, and I will definitely ask my subordinates to send them to you for a taste!"

"Good nephew, my aunt likes a bold man like you. If your sister is not young, my aunt will definitely be the master and marry her to you!" Zhong Yuqiang's daughter-in-law's tone was a bit strange at this time, although she still held the sauce in her hand. However, his eyes were observing Ma Chao's reaction.

"That's right, Lao Zhong planted the seeds too late, so his daughter is only nine years old now. However, our Qiang nationality has many beautiful girls, who are no worse than Han women. They can ride horses and kill enemies. The Han women who are useless are much better. Chaoer, your uncle will find one for you in a few days, and I will send it to you in a few days!" The one who said this was the scalper whose son was tied up by Ma Chao. Duo Tamu, the leader of Qiang, has not seen him for more than a year now, but his son regards Ma Chao as an idol, and he is still drooling.

"You are almost 45, and your son is only five years old this year. How dare you talk about me?" Zhong Yuqiang, who was full of gangster air, naturally refused to let Dotamu run on him, and shot back.But after he finished speaking, he changed the subject and said to Ma Chao: "However, what Dotamu said is correct, those girls of the Qiang tribe, Chao'er, you can speak casually, whichever one you like, your uncle will personally Go and propose marriage for you, if anyone dares not agree, I will tie you back!"

At this time, if Ma Chao hadn't heard the meaning of these Qiang leaders, he would be really stupid.But for such a thing, he really didn't know how to explain it except for a wry smile.

In the traditional ancient society, everyone believed that no matter how close the relationship is, it can’t be compared with the blood relationship. Therefore, people who have no blood relationship like to use the "pseudo-blood relationship" and "quasi-blood relationship" methods of sworn worship, adoption, and godfather to determine If the relationship between the two parties does not have such a blood relationship, it will be worrying.And what is more reliable than these "pseudo-blood kinship" and "quasi-blood kinship" relationships is naturally marriage.

Ma Chao can now be said to be the food and clothing parent of 30 Qiang herdsmen. Through the growing Han and Qiang trade offices, these Qiang herdsmen have spent two winters in peace and happiness. Only a very small number of herdsmen and livestock were frozen to death or starved to death. In the history of the Qiang people, this is even greater than the power of ghosts and gods.And the title of "Tianweishen General" is no longer a title of bravery in the Qiang people, but gradually transformed into a deified respect.

Especially these chiefs who have had friendship with Ma Chao and lived a prosperous life by relying on the shares in the Han and Qiang Exchange, they naturally hope to hold on to Ma Chao tightly so that Ma Chao has a more sense of identity with the Qiang people.To gain this sense of identity, they thought of making Ma Chao the son-in-law of the Qiang nationality.

Therefore, Zhong Yuqiang's wife, Zhong Yuqiang, and Dotamu seemed to be joking, but in fact they wanted to find out what Ma Chao said in advance.Ma Chao was helpless, so he could only look around and say something else: "Uncles, Chao said long ago that the blood of the Qiang people also flowed on Chao's body. Chao still understands your thoughts. After this feigned attack on Chang'an, Chao We are going back to Fufeng for the big wedding, at that time, I hope all uncles and aunts will come and drink the wedding wine!"

After everyone heard it, they all gave a faint 'oh', and Zhong Yuqiang's wife was more winking, and congratulated Ma Chao while feeling disappointed.And the leaders who reacted naturally also congratulated and persuaded them to drink.However, while persuading them to drink, these gentlemen still glanced at each other, obviously making eye contact.

Looking at this reaction, Ma Chao naturally knew that these Qiang leaders had not completely given up the idea of ​​finding a wife for him.However, at this time, Ma Chao couldn't say too much, which would hurt the harmony between the Ma family and the Qiang people.He simply pretended not to understand, and frequently drank the kumiss in his hand, which attracted bursts of bold praise from the leaders.

By this time, the whole lamb dipped in sauce had already been roasted, and everyone was hooked by the hot aroma of the cut skin, and all took out their daggers to eat.But when they really put the roasted mutton into their mouths, everyone noticed that as the teeth closed, the mouth was immediately mixed with the smell of fragrant oil and spicy and refreshing sauce. face enjoyment.

Especially Zhong Yuqiang's wife, after taking a bite, first let out a cry of surprise, and then said to Ma Chao vaguely: "Nephew, you must remember to give some of the sauce to your aunt!"

"I didn't expect that we have eaten mutton all our lives, and it's the first time we've discovered that this mutton can be so delicious!" The old fellow Huntu was also beaming with joy, and just after he finished speaking, he came to cut off a large piece of meat .

"Uncles and uncles, Chao would like to thank you for helping the Ma family again. Chao hereby promises that as long as Chao is around, the Han and Qiang peoples will always be one family. We must strictly abide by this admonition, and the Han and Qiang families will never fight and move forward together in prosperity!" Seeing that the time had come, Ma Chao stood up and made a speech with kumis.

"Do it!" The leaders suddenly promised, and said loudly: "Never give up fighting, let's move forward together!"
