Those porters were frightened when they heard the housekeeper Ma Fu say this, they were just the servants of the Ma Mansion, and now they dared to embarrass their masters, it seems that they can't escape from a punishment.

The porter headed by him had five or six teeth knocked out, and at this time he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy with a leaky mouth: "Big young master, little young master, the villain doesn't know the identity of the nobleman, it's all the villain's dog looks down on people, please don't remember the villain!" ”

Ma Shaoguang asked Ma Fu: "Uncle Ma, our father and son just came back from Guangxi and came to visit the second uncle, is the second uncle at home?" ”

After listening to Ma Fu, Ma Shaoguang asked: "Since the second uncle is at home, then please ask Uncle Ma to speak on his behalf!" ”

Ma Mingyuan is fifty-six years old this year, and he is in the golden age of an official, but he was dismissed from the prime minister, so Ma Mingyuan was very annoyed. In the first few days, he was even more angry for no reason, and many of his family members were unlucky, and in the end, even his son Ma Shaojun hid far away, for fear that he would touch his father's moldy head.

The main reason for this turmoil in the imperial court was that the new policy implemented by the imperial court was too drastic, and the interests of local large landlords were touched in Nanzhili, Zhejiang and other places. Therefore, in order to alleviate the contradictions, Feng Ziyong appropriately slowed down the implementation of the new policy, and changed the confiscation of the land of the big landlords to redemption.

Ma Mingyuan is a close friend in the court, and Ma Mingyuan received the news when Feng Ziyong just issued the decree. Ma Mingyuan saw Feng's own muddy method and scolded: "Second cousin, second cousin, why are you the same as the eldest brother?" Those Donglin Party are about to kill our Chu Party, and now if you don't take advantage of the victory to pursue, we will be unlucky when the Donglin Party recovers! ”

At this time, outside the study, Ma Fu whispered: "Master, master! ”

"Master, the eldest young master has come to see you!"

Ma Fu heard Ma Mingyuan say this and quickly explained: "Master, it is the eldest young master of the eldest master's family, the eldest young master was transferred back to the capital from Guangxi, and he brought his family to visit the master!" ”

Ma Mingyuan hurriedly changed his mood and said calmly: "Since Ziheng is here, then come in!" ”

Ma Shaoguang walked into the house and saw that his uncle Ma Mingyuan had not changed much in the past ten years, he still had a chest-length beard and looked dignified. Ma Shaoguang hurriedly knelt down and said goodbye: "Nephew Ma Shaoguang, meet your uncle!" Following Ma Shaoguang in, Ma Yanzhi and the others also hurriedly knelt and kowtowed.

Ma Mingyuan has seen Ma Yanzhi and Ma Yanyuan, but Ma Yanliang was born in Yong'an Prefecture, and Ma Mingyuan has not seen it.

Ma Mingyuan saw that although Ma Yanzhi's three children were dressed ordinary, they were all lofty, and they were all promising.

"Isn't the third brother Shaojun here? What did you do? Ma Shaoguang knew that Ma Mingyuan had an only son, Ma Shaojun, who was born by filling in the house, but he hadn't seen him for more than ten years and didn't know what it was like now. Ma Shaojun was born because he was born by filling in the house, so he is Ma Mingyuan's sister-in-law, the Ma family has strict rules, and the concubine has no status in the Ma family at all, so Ma Shaoguang called Ma Shaojun the third brother, not his own brother Ma Rufeng.

Ma Shaoguang heard Ma Mingyuan say this, and it was not easy to ask, after all, he and Ma Shaojun were just cousins, so it was not good to ask too much.

Ma Mingyuan's status is too high, and Ma Shaoguang's transfer of a five-grade petty official does not need to be known by Shoufu at all.

Ma Mingyuan is from a financial background and has been responsible for the country's financial and taxation work for many years, so he naturally knows the importance of this salt department. After listening to Ma Shaoguang's speech, he couldn't help but nod his head: "Okay, Ziheng, you have been in Yong'an Prefecture for many years and are familiar with salt administration, so it is reasonable to be the salt secretary!" Have you been to see your father? What did he say? ”

Ma Mingyuan nodded when he heard Ma Shaoguang say this: "Yes, what your father said is very right, this salt secretary has a lot of power in his hands, if he really has some crooked thoughts, it is no problem to get five or six hundred thousand a year, but my uncle wants to warn you, you must firmly remember the four words that Your Majesty said that the world is for the public, you must think about the people wholeheartedly, and you must remember that our money is taken from these people, and when you are an official, you don't make decisions for the people, and you don't go home to sell sweet potatoes!" You know? ”

Ma Shaoguang is not a young man who has just entered the industry, and he can be enthusiastic about Ma Mingyuan's words. But the elders couldn't refute what they said, so Ma Shaoguang had no choice but to nod his head again and again, indicating that he humbly accepted his uncle's teachings.

"Uncle, my nephew is now living in my father-in-law's house, after all, the Fu family has been gone for more than ten years, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law miss it very much, so my nephew won't trouble my uncle!"

"It's okay, didn't you come back to visit King Qin this time?" Ma Mingyuan was very afraid that his eldest brother's classmates in the second year of the Apocalypse would fall to Zhu Jiang, the king of Qin, because Ma Mingyuan knew how powerful these classmates of the eldest brother were. But fortunately, the eldest brother Ma Jiyuan has always supported the prince, so Ma Mingyuan was not worried much before. But now Ma Mingyuan is afraid that he will quit the prime minister, and there is no one in the court to control these eldest brother's classmates, and what they think about it will not be good for the prince.

Ma Mingyuan was overjoyed when he heard Ma Shaoguang say this: "Okay, my Ma family has always insisted on the law of our ancestors, and it is my Ma family's bottom line to establish a successor, and your father is right to say this!" ”

"Okay, Fang Shutian and your father are world friends, and they should go to visit, the old man won't leave you to eat, and if you have a chance to come over in the future, let your aunt cook a few good dishes, and let's have a drink!"

Out of the gate of Mafu, Ma Shaoguang asked the three juniors to go back to the Fu Mansion by themselves, Fang Fengnian was just a world friend, and the juniors didn't have to go, Ma Shaoguang could go by himself.

Ma Shaoguang stood in front of the Fang family, looking at the façade that was completely different from the Fu Mansion and the Ma Mansion, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It seems that Uncle Fang is the one who is the people in his heart!" As a scholar in charge of the world's taxes, he actually lives in such an ordinary house, and Uncle Fang is still much worse than me! ”
