Chapter 16: The Encounter of Ma Chao's Brother and Sister
Zhou Yukun and the two came to the gate along the fence and found that a man and a woman were already waiting here. [Ran^Text^Library] The man was wearing a silver-armored lion belt, a long white cloak behind him, and a delicate face, giving people the feeling of a handsome little general. Although Zhou Yukun himself is not bad in terms of appearance, he is a little ashamed in front of him.
Beside this handsome general was a little girl, dressed in a gorgeous silk robe, who was looking at the general with a well-behaved face.
Yuan Xinwen saw that she didn't know these two people, so she didn't rush forward to say hello. Turned to the door and knocked gently. Not long after, from the room in the courtyard, a little boy walked out, and the little boy saw two more people coming outside the door, so he whispered to Yuan Xinwen: "The two of you are also here to visit Mr., Mr. is receiving guests inside, and I bother you to wait for a while." With that, he turned around again and entered the room.
Seeing this, Zhou Yukun asked suspiciously: "Are we not here today at the right time, Mr. Sima Hui seems to be very busy." ”
Yuan Xinwen explained: "It's your first time here, and you can understand if you don't know. When Mr. Sima Hui receives guests, he can only go in one, and only when this person comes out can the next person go in. ”
Zhou Yukun suddenly said: "Oh, so that's the case, it seems that what Mr. Sima Hui said to us can't be known to others." ”
At this time, the little girl on the other side suddenly shook the handsome general's arm pitifully, and said aggrievedly: "Brother Ma Chao, we have been waiting here for a long time, did that Sima Hui deliberately avoid us?" Why don't we go! ”
Ma Chao comforted her with a wry smile and said, "Ling'er, how can Mr. Sima Hui be this kind of person, we didn't have a grudge against him, why did you hide from us?" Let's be patient. The little girl named Ling'er pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, but she was obedient and stopped complaining.
Because the voice of the two of them was not small, Zhou Yukun listened to it word for word, and when he heard the little girl call the handsome general for the horse overtime, Zhou Yukun was shocked again. The name Ma Chao, Zhou Yukun is very familiar, it is the "Jin Ma Chao" who is the same as Zhao Yun and the five tiger generals. But although the person in front of him was wearing armor, Wenwen didn't look like a very powerful person.
As soon as Zhou Yukun's curiosity came up, he couldn't help but step forward and ask: "You, you are the 'Jinma Chao' of the Five Tiger Generals of Shu Kingdom?" ”
Before Ma Chao could speak, the little girl Ling'er next to her picked up first: "Whether my brother is Ma Chao or not, what does it matter to you." Seeing that you look poor and sour, you can't even wear a decent dress, you must be some unknown little minion. ”
Hearing Ling'er say this, Zhou Yukun lowered his head and noticed that he was still wearing that rag linen clothes, and there were still a few holes that were punctured by Pei Yuanshao! Zhou Yukun looked at Yuan Xinwen embarrassedly, that means why didn't you remind me.
Yuan Xinwen only noticed Zhou Yukun's miserable costume at this time, because things happened too suddenly, she didn't pay much attention to Zhou Yukun's other conditions, which led to the emergence of this embarrassing situation.
Ma Chao patted Ling'er's head speechlessly and asked her not to say much, but he walked up to Zhou Yukun, clasped his fists with both hands, and said apologetically: "Don't worry about this friend, my sister is not sensible and speaks without measure." As for the question you just asked me, I can only say that you misunderstood. My real name is indeed Ma Chao, but my star symbol is not clear, and my sister and I came to inquire about this matter this time! ”
Zhou Yukun also did the same, hugged his fists and saluted back: "So that's the case." I was reckless just now, and it has nothing to do with Sister Ling. ”
Just as Ma Chao was about to say a few more polite words, the little boy from Sima Hui's family opened the door and said to the four of them: "A few people have worked hard, Mr. asked me to tell a few guests, you can enter now." However, the gentleman told me that I had to enter one by one, and that I had to enter in order of height, from short to tall. ”
After hearing this, Zhou Yukun couldn't help but feel a little weird, this Mr. Sima Hui's rules are so strange, you have to rank tall in the order of entry? He looked at it a little, and the shortest of the four was definitely Ma Chao's sister, followed by Yuan Xinwen, and then me, Ma Chao was slightly taller than me, ranking last.
Ma Chao touched Ling'er's head and instructed carefully: "You are the first to go now, after you go in, you must be respectful to Mr., and everyone only has three questions, the first one is to ask your star symbol, and the second question is to be done by yourself, but the third question must not be asked in a hurry, and I will talk about it later." ”
Ling'er nodded obediently and jumped into the courtyard. Led by the child, Ling'er walked into the room, through a hall, and into a relatively small room that resembled a study. At one end of the study, there was a kind old man sitting cross-legged on the ground. "Ma Chuling has seen Mr. Shui Jing." Ling'er bowed respectfully.
Sima Hui smiled, nodded, and said kindly: "The little girl is the first time to come to me, so the old man will do the math for you first." Your first question must be a symbol of the stars, let me take a look......" Sima Hui took out a very simple mirror from his bosom and observed it carefully. A few seconds later, Sima Hui put away the mirror and said: "Little girl, your star is a little peculiar, this character does not exist and history, it is fictionalized by people, and after being well-known to everyone, it is a pseudo-star that is produced." And your detailed identity is the fourth princess of the Xiliangma family, strong in martial arts, a typical heroine! ”
Ma Chuling couldn't help but feel proud when she heard Sima Hui praise her like this, it seems that she is still a powerful person! Then, she suddenly remembered something, her face flushed slightly, and she asked shyly, "Mr. Sima Hui, can I ask you another question?" I want to know who my other half will be in the future, can you tell me? ”
Sima Hui nodded in understanding and said: "Girls want to find a suitable husband, I can understand, but I can't tell you who it is, otherwise it will be my fault for being self-defeating!" All I can say about your significant other is that it's far away and close at hand. ”
Ma Chuling was overjoyed when he heard this, far away in the sky and close in front of him, so isn't it Brother Ma Chao next to me? It seems that he and Brother Ma Chao are a natural pair! I was so happy that I even forgot to thank Sima Hui, so I ran out of the room.
A minute later, Yuan Xinwen slowly came to the study and respectfully saluted Sima Hui: "Mr. Shui Jing, the little girl is here to disturb again." ”
After Sima Hui saw Yuan Xinwen, he put away his smile at Ma Chuling, but was extremely serious. "Miss Da Qiao, you have to think clearly, this is your last chance, are you sure you want to ask?"
Da Qiao took a deep breath and said seriously: "Da Qiao has already thought about it, please ask Mr. to solve my doubts!" What I want to know is, what exactly do I have to do with the people I've brought in outside the door? ”
When Sima Hui heard this question, he frowned and closed his eyes, and after a while, he spoke: "If you want to know this question, you have two paths, first, go back to the place where you came from to look for it; Second, just go with the flow, and you will meet someone who is destined to solve your doubts. After saying that, he hesitated again, and then said: "The first method is troublesome, but it can be understood in more detail; The second method, while convenient, is more a matter of luck. That's all I can say, you get out. ”
“…… Thank you, Mr. Shui Jing! After hearing this, Yuan Xinwen wanted to say something, but when she thought of Sima Hui's rules, she held back and slowly left the room.
