Ma Erniang's Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 44
Shen Hou'er shouted, "They dare—"

Fu Xiaoyou smiled: "Uncle, they don't dare to openly dare to trick the head office secretly."

"Secretly? What do you mean?"

"It's in secret." Fu Xiaoyou is young, and he can talk about this clearly, which is really embarrassing for him. As for 'secretly', he doesn't understand, anyway, that's what he said. Now, he is worthy of the two coins in his arms.

Shen Hou'er raised his head halfway, remembering the day when his benefactor threw the sack on his back. The benefactor seemed to be afraid of those two guys. It is said that they were his brothers. It seems that every family has hard-to-recite scriptures. I gave the stuff to my benefactor, but I didn’t say it to my benefactor’s brother, let me think about it... secretly... what do you mean?

Ma Min'er hardly slept that night, always thinking that someone would come over, half asleep and half awake until dawn, and immediately went out of the room, "Father——" Seeing his father's dark circles, he understood that his father, like her, was awake it is good.

Sighing secretly, he looked towards the path leading to the town, "Father, let's get some stuttering quickly, I'm afraid Uncle Shen will bring someone over to work later."

"Yeah." Ma Qifeng rallied and spread out the things that were put back yesterday so that everyone could use them.

As a result, Shen Houer and his men didn't arrive until noon. "Brother Ma, have you waited long?"

"No, no, it's making everyone tired."

"Brother Ma is being polite." Shen Hou'er smiled and waved his hands, "Everyone hurry up!"

"Okay, brother Shen—"

Everyone moved consciously, those who took the wood took the wood, those who arranged the wires arranged the wires, those who tidied up the rattans tidied up the rattans, and began to hoop the wooden walls.

Seeing that everyone was moving, Shen Hou'er smiled triumphantly, and suddenly turned his head towards Ma Qifeng, "Brother Ma, last night, we beat your two brothers back to town."

"..." Ma Qifeng was stunned and startled.

"Don't worry, I warned them that if they dare to go out of the town, I will have their legs broken." People often look down on rogues, but sometimes, in some cases, rogues are still wanted.

"..." Ma Qifeng had to admit that he was greatly relieved when he heard such words, "Thank you, Brother Shen."

"Haha..." It seemed that their brothers were at odds, and Shen Hou'er realized that he was not helping, so he went to work with peace of mind.

The worker was paying attention to the interaction between the two of them. Seeing Shen Houer approaching, he asked softly, "I don't blame you."

"No, it's all right!"

"Haha..." Everyone laughed lowly, it seems that the big clan from Beijing really has a story.

After listening to Carpenter Shen and Dad's words, Ma Min'er stood quietly in front of the room, and she saw everyone's behavior. Logically, family ugliness should not be publicized, but now, alas, she can't care about so much.While sad, he also breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he can live a quiet life for a few days, but will dad be called back to the town again?
Ma Qiguang, Ma Qiyun, and two servants who followed were beaten black and swollen by the people of Yunshui Town. They sat under the eaves. No one noticed at night. At dawn, people in the courtyard saw it.

"What's the matter with you, fifth?"

"Old Jiu, what's the matter with you?"

The old aunt and the seventh aunt screamed in unison, and everyone followed their gazes.

"Hey, fifth, ninth, who beat you?"

"My father must have been beaten by my sixth uncle." Ma Qiguang's son Ma Yicheng shouted.

"Why?" Ma Qiliang, the fourth son of the Ma family, asked.

Ma Yicheng snorted and said, "Father said that Uncle Six won a bet and bought a lot of things. He asked Uncle Six to ask for it, but Uncle Six must have refused to give it to him, so he beat him."

"Impossible..." Ma Laosi looked at his two younger brothers who were not short in stature. Both of them were taller and stronger than Lao Liu, so they could be beaten like this by him.

"It must be!" Ma Yicheng said angrily.

"My son, my son, let people live..." The old aunt rolled her eyes, sat on the ground, screaming, "It's all like this, why hasn't anyone made the decision? If you don't help My son seeks justice, I'm ashamed..." She cried and looked towards the main house, but there was no movement at all.

In the kitchen, the third wife was watching the servant making breakfast. There were not many rough surfaces, so she had to stare, fearing that the servant would steal away, and turned a deaf ear to the crying outside.

In the main house, the old lady glanced outside, shook her head, and said to Ma Chengzu: "If it weren't for the rough noodles brought by Lao Cangtou yesterday, we would have stopped cooking today, and I don't know when the second child will come back. I am really worried." man!"

Ma Chengzu waved his hand, and the eldest grandson Ma Yihui, who was sitting beside him practicing calligraphy, put away his pen and ink, "Grandpa, that grandson has gone out."

"Ok!"

Ma Yihui saluted and withdrew.

The old lady opened her mouth to stop him and let him deal with the outside affairs, but was stopped by the old man's eyes.

"Understood, I'll go." Mrs. Ma dragged her frail body out of the room door.

"Old lady, old lady..."

The two aunts came to her together, one crawled and the other walked, which was very interesting.

"It's daylight, what are you screaming for?" Exiled by the emperor, from the beginning secretly lucky not to be beheaded, to wandering all the way, and finally to such a place where no shit, all the arrogance and temperament of Mrs. Ma have been worn down Done, dealing with housework is not only boring, but also impatient.

"Old lady, you have to decide for us!"

"Stop talking nonsense, talk about things." The old lady glanced at the two concubines extremely impatiently.

"Yes, old madam, the sixth child has been beaten up."

"There is still luck."

"Two can't beat one?" The old lady sneered.

The old aunt was choked, but it was not easy to ask her son how they were beaten by the sixth child, so she looked at her son and motioned for him to speak.

Ma Qiguang understood that he wanted to get food from Lao Liu privately, but he was afraid he couldn't, so he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and refused to let Lao Tzu eat it, and Lao Tzu would not let you eat it, so he quickly changed into a mournful face, "Mother , Lao Liu eats and drinks, but he doesn't think about everyone, he is not filial to his father, he is a big rebellious son!"

"Where did he get so much money to buy food and drink?" Would the old lady not know the virtues of the six concubines?asked with a cold snort.

"Of course he won the bet."

This is possible, not only the old lady's eyes lit up, but everyone in the yard who heard it lit up, yes, how could I forget, Lao Liu knows how to gamble!
After all, it was the old lady. After a moment, she said: "Don't you and Lao Jiu also gamble!"

"Ah..." Ma Qiguang and Ma Qiyun both lowered their heads.

The old aunt's eyes rolled immediately: "Ma'am, how can Lao Liu compare with Guang'er and the others? They go in and out of serious gambling houses, and Lao Liu has been gambling with dubious bastards in the well alley. There is no serious gambling house in the town, Guang'er and the others wouldn't gamble!"

If Ma Min'er heard what the old aunt said, she would be so angry that it was all about it.

The old lady frowned, it was possible, she said: "Lao Ding, let someone call Lao Liu back."

"Yes, old lady!"

"Old lady, wait!"

The sound came out very suddenly, and everyone looked at the person who made the sound, and it turned out to be him.

"Old Cangtou..." Because of the two catties of rough noodles, the old lady gave face to the janitor, Lao Cangtou, "What's the matter?"

"Old lady, our Wang family is a family of poetry and etiquette, do you want to gamble on the food?" Lao Cangtou is really old, his waist is almost bent at ninety degrees, and he looks up at the mistress.
