Ma Erniang's Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 130 Unexpected
In Ma's House in Yunshui Town, Ma Rou'er knelt in the corridor for a whole night, knelt on the ground limply, unable to get up, a woman came to persuade her, but she stared back fiercely, "Don't worry about it."

The mother-in-law choked on her, held back her unhappiness, and continued to persuade: "It's cold in the late autumn, how can you be a little lady, get up quickly, and this old slave will take you to rest."

"I don't want it, I want my grandfather to promise me." Ma Rou'er is very stubborn, she knows that Yancheng County King appears here, it is as rare as epiphyllum, she must seize this opportunity, but she may not be able to do it by herself To achieve the goal, now I can only bet on my grandfather, only he still has the old face of a former emperor.

The mother-in-law sighed and shook her head and left.At dawn, in the room, the old woman entered the room, Mrs. Ma asked: "How is Rou Niang?"

The mother-in-law shook her head, "Still kneeling!"

Mrs. Ma looked at Ma Chengzu, "Master, what should I do?"

Ma Chengzu was wearing his outer robe coldly, and after a while he sneered: "If all the men in my Ma family have such vigor, why should my Ma family have no worries."

"master--"

"It's a pity that she is a little lady."

"Master, the aristocratic family in the capital didn't rely on the young lady to get married." Mrs. Ma said.

Ma Chengzu paused with his hands on the belt of his robe, raised his eyes and said, "Can she?"

Madam Ma pursed her mouth and fell silent.

Putting on his robes, Ma Chengzu left the room and walked to the aisle. Ma Rou'er, who was cold and hungry, finally waited and crawled to his grandfather's feet, "Grandpa, can't you pity me?"

Ma Chengzu looked down at his concubine's granddaughter, "Poor?"

"Yeah, grandfather, my father knows how to fool around with dubious people all day long, and my mother's thoughts are all on my younger brother. They can't find a good husband for me."

Ma Chengzu sighed deeply, he rarely showed emotion in front of the juniors, this sigh made Ma Rou'er see hope, raised his eyes, "Grandpa, just help me."

"If you can solve things with 'poor' in this world, then there is no cruelty."

"grandfather--"

Ma Chengzu turned around and walked away, saying as he walked, "I have ideas and are ruthless, but it's a pity..."

"What's the pity?" Ma Rou'er chased after her and asked.

Ma Chengzu just laughed, "You will understand later."

"Grandfather..." Ma Rou'er cried out in despair, "Why?"

The whole of Pingding has entered the busy season of autumn farming. King Jin stayed in the small courtyard of Ma's house. Sometimes Master Jiang would accompany him to play chess, and sometimes he would drink afternoon tea in the small pavilion of Ma's house. If it weren't for Ma Min'er She was too busy, she was going to mutter, is a prince who is forced to live in exile so leisurely?
Is it really leisurely?Maybe only the person involved knows.

The border affairs were busy. On the second day, Xia Zhen and King Jin bid farewell, "My lord, let me go back and deal with official business, and I will accompany you after I finish."

"It's okay, General Xia just go and get busy."

"Thank you, my lord, for your compassion."

Ma Qifeng and others sent General Xia and others away. Ma Qifeng took his two sons and Master Jiang to accompany King Jin in the courtyard and take care of the house affairs.Ma Miner and Fu Xiaoyou are busy with rice harvesting outside.

Liu Zaili swayed behind Ma Miner with his hands behind his back. Originally, she was very wary of him, but because of the raindrops, Jin Han came to take a good picture of her parents, which made her unbearable. Be cold to him, and let him follow her when he has nothing to say.Unknowingly, the two of them became acquainted. Of course, this acquaintance is only a little better than that of strangers, that's all.

Three days later, when the rice of the Ma family was cut in half, an unexpected person appeared in the small courtyard of the Ma family.

Fu Xiaopao ran to the threshing ground, his face was covered with sweat, "Er Niang, Er Niang, is there a nobleman at home?"

"Noble man? Is there a king of Jin?"

"That's not there."

"Uh..." Ma Miner, who was joking, put down the rice handle in her hand, "Who?"

"Prince Jin's second daughter, Princess Baoyun."

"Princess Baoyun, why did she come?"

Fu Xiaoyou shook his head, "I don't know."

For some reason, Ma Miner's heart skipped a beat, no wonder Liu Zaili was not by her side today, she was still quietly relieved, it turned out that she had gone to welcome the Princess, she put down the straw in her hand, took off her smock, and hurriedly Go back with Fu Xiaoyou.

At the gate of Ma's courtyard, Xia Zhen just dismounted, "Old general, young general, you are here!"

Xia Zhen nodded, "King Jin delivered the letter, I came with my grandfather."

"Oh." Ma Min'er's bad premonition grew stronger, and for some reason she felt that Xia Zhen didn't belong to her.

"Go in." Seeing Ma Min'er standing at the door, Xia Zhen stepped forward and said softly.

"Oh." Ma Min'er withdrew her gloomy gaze, and stepped aside to let the old general step through the door first.

In the yard, a beautiful and charming little lady was looking outside, and when she saw them, she had a smile on her face.Sure enough, he was a nobleman from Tianhuang, with a dignified and dignified demeanor. Standing there, he looked like a prosperous world.

Liu Zaili bowed his hands to Xia Shiyong and others, "Old general, young general Xia—"

"Yan County King—" Xia Shiyong returned the salute, stretched out his hand and asked, "This is—"

"The second daughter of the King of Jin— Princess Yunbao."

Xia Shiyong said politely: "It turns out that it is the princess, the old man is far away, and I still look at Haihan."

"The old general is polite." Princess Yunbao smiled.

Xia Zhen also stepped forward to salute, "Princess—"

"Little general—" Princess Yunbao smiled and looked at Xia Zhen quietly, feeling like she was up for grabs, which made Xia Zhen quite uncomfortable.

Liu Zaili curled his lips into a smile, glanced at Ma Min'er next to him, and said to Xia Shiyong, "Your Majesty, please—"

Xia Shiyong seemed to have sensed something too. When he was walking, he turned his head and glanced at the eldest grandson, noticing that his expression was not clear, then glanced at Ma Erniang, and followed Liu Zaili calmly.

After a while, only Ma Miner's master and servant remained at the gate of the courtyard.

"Erniang—" Fu Xiaoyou was so smart, he knew what was going on as soon as he saw the princess, and cried out sadly.

Ma Min'er took a deep breath, looked up to the sky, "My mouth is dry, I'm going to drink water." After speaking, she turned and left.

"Er Niang...Er Niang..." Fu Xiaoyou chased after her.

In Yunshui Town, in Ma's house, Mrs. Ma was receiving the attendants of King Jin, and he personally sent Ma Zhi'er, the granddaughter of Ma's concubine, back.

"Old lady, the prince has said that Madam Ma is indeed worthy of being a descendant of the emperor's family. She is quick in doing things, smart and pleasant, and makes people happy..."

Ma Zhier, who was standing by the side, was still worried just now. She served the prince very well. She was not clingy or rude, and whenever she had time, she would go up to serve tea and water for the prince. It seemed that the prince valued her very much. So I sent myself back, so I was going to say these words to my grandmother, isn't that... She listened with joy.

The old lady hurriedly saluted, "Thank you for your praise, the young lady is ignorant and offended the prince, I hope you will forgive me."

The waiter smiled: "Come here—"

"Staff—"

"Present the gift for Miss Ma."

"Yes, steward..."

There is still a gift, Ma Zhier smiled happily, squinted her eyes, and quietly looked at the person carrying the gift behind, God, it really is the prince, the presents are all carried in boxes, they must be many and very expensive, right? What will the supervisor say next, is it to grandma...

Mrs. Ma immediately waved her hand: "My lord is too polite, but she is just a little girl, how can I make my lord spend so much money?"

The manager squinted his eyes and didn't pay attention to Mrs. Ma's politeness at all, and his face was amiable, "Is Mrs. Ma here?"

"exist!"

"My lord, please go over to tell me, my lord."

"Wait a moment for the manager, I'll call for someone."

"Okay, I'm sorry." The chief manager was always polite on the face, but his tone was arrogant and high-spirited.

Mrs. Ma couldn't understand, but she couldn't care less, so she got up quickly and went to the master's study to call someone.

Ma Rou'er is still standing on the side, secretly happy, the prince will definitely discuss with my grandfather about accepting me, and I will become the prince's concubine, and I will be a concubine in the future!Her inner dream is beautiful.

There is a side door in the main hall. Ma Rou'er lives in Luo's house. Seeing the king of Jin sending someone back to Ma's house, she followed him, and I stayed by the side all the time. Hearing that he was polite and invited grandpa, she wished to do it for Ma Zhi'er and herself.

Ma Zhi'er glanced at Ma Rou'er who was hiding in a corner, and smiled lightly, there was sympathy in that smile, and even more disdain and condescension.

Ma Chengzu's study room, Mrs. Ma has already told him the general situation of King Jin's visit, "What do you think?"

Ma Chengzu felt that there was a chicken feather all over the place. What happened to the two concubine granddaughters, he stood up with a tiger face, "notify the fifth and seventh wives, take the two daughters back and put them outside, what do you look like? The face of the family was lost by them."

"My lord, if the lord accepts Zhi'er, it won't be a problem. After all, it's the help of the Ma family."

Ma Chengzu sneered, "King Jin is still in the mood to accept a concubine, and what is his situation now, if he accepts it..." Maybe it was the powerful, or maybe the future was unknown, but he didn't finish his sentence.

"Master, can King Jin's people wait outside?"

Ma Chengzu looked angry: "If I am good at marrying and flattering, will I still be exiled to this place where no shit?"

"Master, no matter what you want, you have to make it clear to King Jin." Mrs. Ma felt a headache for her husband's honesty.

"Forget it, the old man will go over and explain clearly to the King of Jin." Ma Chengzu angrily followed the steward of the King of Jin to Ma's house.

Grandpa and Prince Jin left, and Ma Zhier walked into the aisle with a smile, "Cousin, you haven't returned to the city yet!"

Ma Rou'er snorted coldly.

"Cousin, I'm not talking about you. You shouldn't have dropped the meal at Sister Min'er's house that day. If you didn't, you can go back. Maybe you'll have the chance to meet King Yancheng again!"

Do you think that Ma Rou'er doesn't regret it? How did she know that her grandfather is a stubborn old man who would not go after the rich? She regretted it to death. The soldier held her back, and she didn't even have a chance to thicken her face.

Ma Zhier was almost terrified in front of her, and sighed softly, "I won't tell you anymore, I'll go see Cousin Hui, we haven't seen each other for several days." After finishing speaking, she left proudly.

Ma Rou'er stomped her feet angrily, but there was nothing she could do. Seeing her grandfather being invited away by King Jin's people, she had to admit that Ma Zhi'er, who was three years younger than her, was more stable than her.

After drinking the boiled water, she made up her mind for a while, Ma Min'er's mood improved a lot, and she also wanted to be white. She was just a visitor from another world, floating like duckweed in this world. She had a father who loved her and someone who cared for each other. Brothers and sisters are already very content. Although Xia Zhen's temper is not very good, but he is so good in every aspect, how can I have it!
The king of Jin was in the guest room temporarily, Feng Jiangyi was playing chess with him, and Xia Shiyong and others arrived.

"My lord, Master Feng—" Xia Shiyong greeted him as soon as he entered the door.

"The old general is too polite, please sit down."

"Thank you, Lord!"

Princess Yunbao bowed dignifiedly: "Father——"

"Yun'er, come here—"

"Yes, Father."

"Have you met the two generals?"

Princess Yunbao nodded, "I have, Father."

"Good good."

Princess Yunbao obediently stood beside her father.

"Old General Xia, this is my second daughter, Yun Bao. She is 14 years old, and she is quite dignified and virtuous."

"The prince is too much, the princess is not only dignified and virtuous, but also beautiful and intelligent!"

"Haha... the old general praised it, praised it." Jin Wang laughed, turned to his daughter and said: "My father has some discussions with the generals, you go to rest first."

"Yes, Father." Princess Yunbao saluted and left the room.

Xia Zhen never looked directly at Princess Yunbao from the beginning to the end, with a serious face.Liu Zaili sat leisurely and calmly on the chair, just missing his legs crossed.

King Jin smiled and said, "Old General Xia, match my son with..."

"My lord..." Xia Zhen hurriedly stood up and interrupted King Jin, "I already have a wife."

King Jin raised his eyes, and his smiling face immediately sank, "Is that the young lady of the Ma family?"

"Yes, my lord."

"Is there a matchmaker's words?"

"Go back to the lord, my Xia family uses jade water to test the marriage."

King Jin had heard about Xia Jiayu's water drop, but he didn't expect his delicate daughter to be rejected.

Xia Shiyong lowered his head slightly, and didn't scold his eldest grandson. It wasn't that he agreed with Ma Min'er, but that King Jin was in an embarrassing situation. If he failed, the future of the Xia family would be with him.It's not the right time to marry him.

"What if I insist on marrying a daughter?"

"My lord, can't the whole north give you peace of mind?" Xia Zhen raised her head and asked.

"The whole north? What do you mean?"

"If you want to be like the one in the south, the whole north is not against you."

King Jin's eyes narrowed, "What if I want you to raise troops?"

"My lord, as long as you are as powerful as a bamboo, I will raise troops even if you don't want to marry me."

"Zi'an—" Xia Shiyong shouted in fright at the elder grandson's words.

Xia Zhen turned her head and looked at her grandfather, signaling him to be safe and not to worry.

Jin Wang Yixi: "Is this really true?"

"Yes!" Xia Zhen replied sonorously.

King Jin breathed out lightly, and nodded thoughtfully, "Tomorrow I will return to Qingzhou, from Qingzhou to the south, Xia Zian, I will come over at any time."

"Yes, my lord."

"Okay, okay!" King Jin stood up, wiped his sleeves with his hands happily, and looked like he was doing a lot, "The third and the seventh are about to lose both. It's really a good time for me to go out."

"My lord—" the people in the room got up one after another and shouted respectfully.

"Haha..." King Jin was in high spirits.

A servant at the door said: "My lord, Mrs. Ma is here."

"Please come in, my lord."

"Yes, my lord."
