Ji County, Hanyang County, Liangzhou.

Since he was appointed as the general of Zhengxi, Ma Teng has been stationed in Ji County, Hanyang County, not because of anything else, but because Ji County, whether it is the population or development, it is the crown of Liangzhou. Speaking of which, Ma Teng originally wanted to stay in Longxi Didao, after all, he had lived there for a long time, not only had feelings, but also had the support of the local people. It was only because of Zhang Ning's strong request that Ma Teng finally moved to Ji County obediently.

"This ...... This ......" Ma Teng looked at the letter in his hand in a daze, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

At this moment, Zhang Ning walked in, "Gentleman, the meal is ready." Zhang Ning said with a smile, and then saw Ma Teng's stunned expression.

Just before Zhang Ning could ask, he heard Ma Teng's anxious tone, "Madam, come and take a look at this." With that, Ma Teng walked quickly in front of Zhang Ning and handed her the letter.

Zhang Ning took it, and after sweeping it twice, his expression suddenly became extremely serious, seeing this, Ma Teng looked at Zhang Ning expectantly on the side, hoping that his female military advisor could make a choice for him.

It's just that this time Zhang Ning didn't answer Ma Teng quickly, but said without raising his head, "Gentleman, go to dinner first, concubine has to think about it......"

Seeing this, Ma Teng didn't dare to disturb, and obediently walked to the side, but saw the three brothers Ma Chao sitting at the table and waiting quietly. By the way, it was Ma Teng's third son, Ma Tie, who was sent to Luoyang as a hostage. And in this regard, Dong Zhuo didn't force them too much, after all, what he needed was for Ma Teng and Han Sui to submit quickly, not to really force them to surrender.

"Father, what about Mother?" Ma Chao saw that only Ma Teng came out alone, and immediately asked.

"Uh, Grandma has something to think about, so let's eat first." When Ma Teng heard this, he said in a somewhat strange tone. Although Ma Teng repeatedly relied on Zhang Ning to staff the military and politics, and Ma Chao and others were not unaware of this matter, Ma Chao suddenly asked at this time, which still made Ma Teng feel a little weird.

"I'm going to wait for my mother to eat together." When Ma Chao heard this, he put down his chopsticks and said softly. Seeing this, Ma Xiu and Ma Dai also obediently put down their chopsticks, although the eyes of the two of them kept staring at the food on the table, which was their favorite dish.

"Hmm...... It's good. Ma Teng scratched his head when he heard this, and finally nodded a little embarrassed. How so? He suddenly had a feeling that he was useless. At this moment, what he wanted to do most was to go in and help Zhang Ning think together, but he also knew that if he went in, he couldn't do anything but make trouble, because using his brain or something was indeed a very difficult thing for him.

After thinking about it, Ma Teng turned his head to look at Ma Chao and asked, "Chao'er, how did you learn the art of war that your mother taught you?" ”

One sentence suddenly made Ma Chao's expression very ashamed, "Father, those things taught by Mother are too difficult......"

"It's worthy of being my son......" Ma Teng thought a little helplessly when he heard this, and then stroked Ma Chao's little head and smiled, "Don't worry, if you have anything difficult, just ask your mother." In this way, when Chao'er grows up, he will not be like his father, who has to rely on his mother for everything. ”

"Actually, my father is also very powerful, especially when he is commanding the troops!" Ma Chao hurriedly said when he heard this, and a sentence immediately made Ma Teng smile. It's just that the smile just hung on his face, and Ma Chao continued, "It's just that many things are too simple to think about." ”

"I'm your father!" Ma Teng thought helplessly in his heart, while hiding the embarrassment in his heart by the action of drinking.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Ning slowly walked out of the study, seeing this, Ma Teng and the others hurriedly stood up, as if the head of the family had arrived. Well...... Well, judging from the admiring gaze of the Ma Chao brothers and Zhang Ning's right to speak in major matters, it seems that ...... There's nothing wrong with that.

"Haven't you eaten yet? If it's cold, it won't taste good. Zhang Ning smiled at the four of them, but his smile was full of exhaustion, obviously the matter in the letter made Zhang Ning a little difficult to choose.

"It's okay, I've already warmed up my subordinates, come and eat~" Ma Teng said with a smile when he heard this, and at the same time walked over and helped Zhang Ning to the edge of the table and sat down.

"Hmm~" Hearing this, Zhang Ning responded a little weakly, seeing this, Ma Teng suddenly looked at Zhang Ning a little strangely, because in his opinion, although this letter is difficult for people to choose, it will not make people tired to this extent.

However, Ma Teng didn't care, just beckoned everyone to have dinner. Suddenly, the younger Ma Xiu and Ma Dai quickly stretched out their chopsticks to the target that they had been staring at for an unknown amount of time. It's only halfway through that a chopstick sticks out, and one opens the chopsticks of the two, "Grandma can only eat after eating!" Ma Chao pretended to be serious and looked at Ma Xiu and the two said.

In a word, Ma Teng's half-stretched arm suddenly retracted silently, "Why do you suddenly feel that my status at home is getting lower and lower?" Ma Teng thought helplessly. But obviously, when thinking of this kind of thing, Ma Teng's heart was full of happiness and pride, after all, Zhang Ning was his wife!

"Mother, come and try this, don't you like to eat pork made by Aunt Li the most?" After Ma Chao finished teaching Ma Xiu and Ma Dai, he immediately sandwiched a piece of three-layer meat into Zhang Ning's bowl like a treasure.

"Humph! I know how to please my mother! Seeing this, Ma Xiu and Ma Dai immediately muttered a little dissatisfied, and at the same time silently retracted the chopsticks that were also holding three layers of meat.

"Son! Daddy loves to eat too! Ma Teng wailed again in his heart.

"Hehe, Chao'er is so good~" Seeing this, Zhang Ning immediately praised with a smile, and at the same time picked up the three-layer meat and put it in his mouth. As soon as she entered, her face suddenly became extremely ugly, and she stood up at once, and couldn't help retching when she trotted outside.

"What's going on?!" All of a sudden, the whole family of four was stunned, and at the same time quickly ran to Zhang Ning's side to check the situation.

"Ah Chao, go find Uncle Wang! He knows a little bit about medicine! Ma Teng shouted anxiously.

Hearing this, Ma Chao nodded, and quickly ran outside, but he didn't run two steps before he heard Zhang Ning's words, "No need, and it's useless to look at it." ”

"Huh?!" Ma Teng looked at Zhang Ning, who had already stood up, suspiciously, and his infinite trust in Zhang Ning made him subconsciously believe Zhang Ning's words. But in the next moment, he immediately went crazy.

"Fool, I'm pregnant, what's the use of looking for Uncle Wang?" Zhang Ning glanced at Ma Teng, and then leaned on his arms and sneered.
