Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 746; Country Woman Alexander

Chapter Seven Hundred and First; Country Woman Alexander
"Zeng Gui, Niu Da, the two stewards have worked hard along the way. They should be rewarded. They will be rewarded with twenty carts of corn, twenty carts of white rice, and twenty carts of wheat noodles. They will also be given a hundred pieces of money and two gold hairpins. Two silver hairpins."

The two idiots have no idea about the many things that Li Yu rewarded King Ma Bin, but they also know a lot, but they are not envious. Reward this much?

It's clear that Mr. Ma doesn't want Steward Ma to become his own person. For the dozens of carts of grain he got, and there is still a hundred coins, Da Niu Agui is smiling from ear to ear, imitating King Ma Bin. Xie Li, who was meticulous in grooming, looked at the two 1.9-meter-tall, muscular iron-tower men who were chirping like literati, Li Yu leaned on the grand master's chair and laughed.

After thanking the reward, the two hurriedly asked to leave the mansion, and Agui mysteriously dragged Daniel to an empty corner;
"Big cow! Let's talk about something serious."

"Ah Gui, you want me to be greedy for food again? I won't do it this time, or I, Aye, will beat me to death. I said it last time, and I will tear my mouth apart next time! Hit me to death."

"What are you afraid of? You, Aye, are scaring you. He's your only son. Is he willing to kill you? Who will take care of him when he kills you?

You think about it, idiot!Think about it, there are so many brothels in Pingkangfang in Chang'an City, so many beautiful women, don't you want to sit around?Wouldn't it be beautiful to be served with good food and drink, and then watch those good-looking ones play and sing for your woman? "

"This...beauty is beauty, but those rewards are publicized by the whole clan. It would be troublesome if a hundred coins are missing a big money. Although I, Aye, don't know how to count them, they will ask the clansmen to help them.

There are as many carts as there are grains, let me say yes first, don’t look at me like this, don’t even think about the golden hairpin and two silver hairpins, if I touch a silver hairpin, my mother will dare to kill me , my woman will cry to death too, if you want to fix it, just fix your share! "

"Idiot! Idiot! We can take a little out of each bag of grain, isn't that the end? Do you still need to weigh it?"

After hearing this, Da Niu's eyes lit up;

"That's right! Why didn't I think of this? Brother, you are amazing! No wonder you can be called Sai Zhuge, admiration!"

"Don't worry, this time I'll stuff Zhuge's food with my hands, every bag of food. Do you know what kind of trick is this? This is the 36 tricks I learned from Mr. Lang, it's amazing!"

"Thirty-six tricks? You know all of this? Then tell me, what kind of trick is this called? Is there any wisdom?"

"Of course there is a Mingtang. This is called cheating. Hurry up and go. Let's go to Ma Shijiu. Recently, that guy gave birth to a manager who manages a warehouse. Let's go to him and receive the reward at his warehouse. Then, when filling the food, each bag is returned a little, so that all the food bags are intact, without anyone noticing..."

"That's right! My brother is really amazing. I can think of these little things. This time, I am relieved. Who will go to the foolish scale of the clan's rewards? If you don't believe in the clan, you will be laughed to death. Oh, brother , I want to go to Chang'an City right now, I've been interested in a woman for a long time, this time I have money, I will sleep with her for two days and two nights, that woman's body is so white..."

Not to mention that the two idiots here are sneakily looking for Ma Shijiu, a comrade-in-arms in the guard, but Li Yu is still sitting in the room to meet every family member who has returned from hard work. King Ma Bin, please come out and bring a few The maids and two men left for a night's rest, and finally started their journey home the next morning.

Of course, King Ma Bin didn't know where his home was. It was the servant girl, Baby Red, who commanded the chariots and horses to come to the alley of Plum Blossom Bieyuan. One household, the rest of the houses are occupied by servants, who regularly clean the vacant houses.

Entering the quiet alley, King Ma Bin was very satisfied. As a man of letters, he liked quietness, and it was extremely rare to find such a quiet place in the noisy city of Chang'an.

It wasn't until the chariots and horses stopped and someone came to ask for it that Steward Ma finally came to his senses.

"Report to Chief Steward, we are here."

"Oh? Okay, thank you."

"I dare not be a villain."

Being helped out of the carriage by several people, Ma Da was not used to doing things, since he was not an old man in his 90s or [-]s, why should he be helped by others?
"Is this the little house that Lang Jun said he set up for me?"

Looking at the imposing red brick courtyard and gatehouse, King Ma Bin was dumbfounded.

"That's right, Chief Steward, this is our courtyard. Mr. Lang knows that Chief Steward likes to be quiet, so he left one here for you, Chief Steward. The whole alley is the property of the family, so no one will disturb it." Those who are in charge can study and live in peace."

Ma Binwang muttered to himself in a daze;

"How much money will it cost to go? How much will go into the yard..."

"If you go back to the big steward, this house is built with materials from our clan, and it doesn't cost money. The craftsmen are also from our clan, and it didn't cost money. When buying and replacing the old house, it cost 260 yuan. through."

Hearing that it cost more than 1000 yuan to buy and replace the old house before, the sweat beads on Ma Binwang's head kept falling, and the maid next to him was diligently wiping it.

Ma Binwang is not a big cow and Agui does not know how to settle accounts. Ma Binwang can calculate the accounts of all the people on the Silk Road to the exact end. The materials used in this house must be [-] yuan.

If it is an ordinary family, if craftsmen are invited to come and build it, at least 60 to [-] people will have to work for a year. Ordinary people can't even think about it. The wages alone can scare ordinary people to death!

King Ma Bin didn't go in, a group of people stood at the door in order, and the second-class maid Ying Hong was still introducing and answering questions carefully;

"There are five courtyards in front and back of our house. Each courtyard on the first four floors has a hall for guests, and there are thirteen empty rooms for people to live in. The last courtyard has a middle door, which is counted as the inner house in the backyard. The servants are all Live in the third entrance, A Lang and the old lady live in the fourth entrance, and the wife and two children live in the last entrance."

King Ma Bin, who was used to being poor since he was a child, thought of those rewards again, plus this mansion...he was in a cold sweat, he really couldn't believe that such a big mansion was really rewarded to him, and he still had ten lifetimes to spare Completed family business...but after thinking about it again, there is no need to doubt anything out of emotion and reason, this father-in-law who is famous all over the world but does not know how rich he is, there is really no need to talk empty words..."

Shaking his head fiercely, King Ma Bin wanted to end his wild thoughts and go in to see his relatives whom he had not seen for many years. At this moment, the door opened from the inside,

King Ma Bin's woman appeared at the door with two children, several maids, and two male servants, thinking that she was going to the east and west cities to watch the excitement.

"Slaves pay homage to the chief steward."

"The villain pays respects to the chief steward."

"The servant pays homage to the madam."

"The villain pays his respects to his wife."

The servants inside saluted King Ma Bin, and the servants outside saluted the women inside. They were very busy and orderly.

But King Ma Bin was still looking at his woman stupidly, he almost couldn't recognize her sincerity!

In the past, although the women of King Ma Bin were beautiful and generous, but at that time...they wore coarse clothes and did farm work and chores in the field. I don't need to elaborate on what they should look like, just look at the women of ordinary people's families People will know everything.

At this time, the woman in front of her was wearing silk and satin, her hands were white and tender, and she wore an ice-green high-quality jadeite bracelet on her wrist. Is this a woman from a farming family?From this point of view, she is a lady from a big family who does not work and is only responsible for enjoying herself.

The woman dressed up in high-quality rouge and gouache is almost on par with those mistresses who come from high-ranking families. Looking at the pair of children, they all seem to come from a big family... King Ma Bin opened his mouth wide in surprise ...

A woman who has not seen her man for many years, although she is full of tears, still takes care of the scene. The servants all come to salute, but her man does not say a word. For the Ma family, who is born in a literati family, this is extremely rude and ridiculous. Too many, so Ma Binwang's woman took care of the maids and servants back and forth;

"Everyone, hurry up and give up, hurry up and give up."

"Lang-jun! The lord is back... the concubine... the concubine welcomes the lord... back to the mansion..."

After struggling for more than ten years, the country woman finally lived a good life. When she saw the man she hadn’t seen for many years, she couldn’t help but burst into tears. When she saw the woman dressed as a noble lady, she felt sincere and sincere. King Ma Bin stepped forward and pulled the woman He took the silk scarf from the maid's hand and wiped it carefully for the woman, comforting her tenderly;

"My lady, don't cry. It's a very happy day for me to return from the Western Regions. If my lady cries again, the old woman will definitely be unhappy."

The woman who reacted quickly stopped her emotions, and smiled through tears;
"Yes, yes, it is a great joy for the Lord to return home. I am ignorant and ignorant, please forgive me!"

"Not guilty!"

"Don't go to the street, let's go back to the house and ask Yinghong to arrange it, and have a good meal today to celebrate."

"It's Mr. Lang, everything is arranged by Mr. Lang."

Yinghong next to him smiled and ordered;

"Come here!"

"I'm here, please tell me, my lady."

"There are a lot of beef and mutton brought back from the clan in the carts and horses, as well as vegetables grown in our clan, and wild vegetables brought back from the mountains. The kitchen is passed on to clean up a table waiting for the rice. The chief steward's family will celebrate it."

"only!"

"Hold on."

"Yes, please give me your instructions, Chief Manager."

"According to a table for eight people, everyone in the house must eat the same food, and any one of them is indispensable."

"Yes, the chief manager, the villain will pass on the message immediately."

The woman looked at the two timid and avoiding children, and felt a little annoyed in her heart. Today's husband is no longer the inferior person from the poor and difficult family he used to be!

The current lord is the dignified manager of the second house of the Li family in Longxi, and one month's allowance is enough for his family to live on for a lifetime. If the lord complains that he doesn't know how to take care of children... what should we do?

Since I came to live in Chang'an City for this year, and look at the group of beautiful young maids in the courtyard, Mrs. Ma's life has been very stressful this year, Alexander!This country woman feels the pressure is much greater than the sky!

"You two hooligans, why don't you come to see your own Aye? How do I usually teach?"

The two children are hiding behind the woman, very strange.

"My lady, don't blame the two of them. It's been five years since my husband left home. How old were they when they left? How can you tell them apart? Don't be in a hurry, you'll get to know each other slowly."

"It's Mr. Lang."

After accompanying the smiling face, the woman turned around and looked at the two children seriously;
"How do I teach you on weekdays? Huh? Are you still descendants of my Ma family? If you are descendants of the Ma family, then you should pay respects to my Aye in a proper manner. If not, I will treat you two differently today." Those who know etiquette should be kicked out of the house!"

The two children were frightened when they heard that they were going to be kicked out of the house, so they begged for mercy;
"Auntie, don't chase us away?"

"Then come and pay your respects to your Aye!"

Hearing the harsh lesson, the two children had no choice but to come out in a well-behaved manner, lifted their clothes and knelt down;

"Meet Aye, Aye Wanfu Jinan."

A happy smile appeared on King Ma Bin's face;

"Okay, my son is free."

"Thank you."

When the two children got up, King Ma Bin took out the gifts that he had prepared for a long time from his arms. They were all personal items bought from the Western Regions. Where had the two children seen anything new?Smiled from ear to ear and took it!

"Thank you Aye for the reward."

King Ma Bin affectionately stroked the tops of the two children's heads;

"Go, go play in the yard."

"It's Aye."

Seeing the two children happily running in to play, Ma Binwang brought a group of people into the house after sighing, and came to the upper room in the fourth courtyard. The two old people were gossiping when they suddenly saw their son whom they had not seen for several years When I came back, I was taken aback.

The old lady's hands were trembling with joy, Ma Binwang lifted his clothes and knelt down respectfully;

"The unfilial son, King Ma Bin, is back, and I am honored to meet my parents."

The old man did not speak, but the old lady shouted happily;

"My son, hurry up and get up quickly."

"Yes, thank you, Aunt."

After three respectful kowtows, King Ma Bin stood up steadily, and before he had time to speak, the old man sitting at the head said something coldly;
"Kneel down."

Ma Binwang, who was slightly taken aback, quickly knelt down in a polite manner;
"Give me the teachings of Aye."

"The old man asked you a gossip, do you know how much money and silk your house is worth?"

"Back to Aye's words, 260 guan."

"Snapped."

The angry old man slapped the desk hard, scaring King Ma Bin to prostrate his head on the ground;

"Aye, calm down, Aye, calm down, Aye's body is important."

The Ma family in Chiping County, Qinghe County is not an ordinary peasant family. The ancestors of the Ma family were also very learned. The Ma family's education level is very high, especially in terms of filial piety!
King Ma Bin has been a very filial son since he was a child, and he is well-known as a filial son in his hometown of Chiping County, Qinghe County. When he heard the old Aye slapping the table in anger, King Ma Bin was so frightened that his whole body tensed up... lying on the ground dare not move...
