【795】The Age of Water (4)
Summary of the previous chapter: Li Qinghan learned the truth about Ma Xiaoquan's marriage from Mrs. Ma, and his heart was both happy and sad, and a few days later, Liu Yijing, a cabinet scholar, came to Ma's house with his little granddaughter
++++++++++++++++++ Mrs. Ma and Li Qinghan both knew that with Liu Yijing's personality and old ways, they would never stay to eat, and Mrs. Ma and Li Qinghan sang and said in harmony with each other, just to be polite to Liu Yijing.
But the two ignored a key issue, that is, Liu Yijing's little granddaughter.
If there was only Liu Yijing, he really wouldn't stay, but with a little granddaughter, it wouldn't be necessarily.
Sure enough, Liu Yijing was just about to open his mouth to refuse, but the little granddaughter on the side pouted, stepped forward and hugged Liu Yijing's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, grandpa, the people of the Ma family are so enthusiastic, I want to stay, I want to stay."
Liu Yijing looked at her little granddaughter lovingly, touched her little head, and sighed: "You ghost girl, it's really" Saying that, Liu Yijing raised his head and looked at Mrs. Ma and Li Qinghan, with an apologetic face.
Mrs. Ma is okay, Lord Liu rarely stays for a light meal, so he is naturally happy to welcome it, but Li Qinghan can't say it.
Li Qing stared at Liu Yijing's little granddaughter coldly, only to see that the little girl also glared back without showing weakness, and couldn't help but secretly say in her heart: The little girl is young, but she has a lot of eyes, hum~~ Li Qinghan said unceremoniously: "Little sister~~ My Ma family has a lot of rules, don't run around~"
The little girl pouted, held her little head high and said, "My name is Liu Xiangxiang, sister, you can call me by my name~"
Li Qinghan frowned, this little girl, she doesn't even need an honorific word "you", she simply doesn't take me in her eyes.
"Okay~ Then my sister will call you Sister Xiangxiang~" Li Qinghan said.
Liu Xiangxiang nodded: "Well, then I'll call you Sister Qinghan~"
It's "you" again, you little girl, don't you know how to respect your elders?
Li Qinghan secretly clenched his fists, very unhappy in his heart.
At this moment, Ma Xiaoquan, who had just fallen asleep and finished washing, came out, and when he saw Liu Yijing sitting in the main hall, Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment.
"Lord Liu?" Ma Xiaoquan straightened his collar and stepped forward to give up his hand to Liu Yijing, "Lord Liu, hello, hello~"
Liu Yijing smiled and said, "Ma guard, your age is not too young, right?" [Ma Xiaoquan is not only a brocade guard in the palace, but also one of the emperor's personal guards, so the officials in the palace generally call Ma Xiaoquan a horse guard] Ma Xiaoquan and Mrs. Ma glanced at each other and replied to Liu Yijing: "Lord Liu, what do you mean by asking this?" ”
Liu Yijing's old face flushed: "I, Liu Yijing, have been in officialdom all my life, I'll just say it now, who can fly Huang Tengda, I can see it at a glance~"
Ma Xiaoquan pointed to himself: "What do you mean that my Ma Xiaoquan will soar?" ”
Liu Yijing nodded: "Yes, Ma Guard, you entered the Jinyi Guard at a young age (this is not the point), and you also got a small token from the emperor (this is the point), rare, rare."
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head, took out a small token from his arms, and was just about to take another look, when Liu Yijing's little granddaughter Liu Xiangxiang came over.
Standing in front of Ma Xiaoquan, Liu Xiangxiang is like a child.
Liu Xiangxiang raised her head and looked at Ma Xiaoquan, her little face turned red all of a sudden.
In the Ming Dynasty, men with a Chinese face or a square face were the most popular, because such men gave people a sense of calm and responsibility, while a pointed chin like Ma Xiaoquan had no market.
But Liu Xiangxiang has not liked the square face of the Chinese character since she was a child, she likes the kind of man with a melon seed face and a pointed chin.
"Are you Ma Xiaoquan?" Liu Xiangxiang asked in a trembling voice.
Ma Xiaoquan lowered his head, looked at Liu Xiangxiang, smiled slightly, and answered this little girl's question.
When are men most attracted to women? First, when doing things seriously and focusedly; Second, when you smile slightly. Of course, there must be a premise for this, that is, the facial features must be good-looking.
Needless to say, Ma Xiaoquan's appearance is naturally needless to say, if according to the judging standards of modern society, Ma Xiaoquan is also included in the ranks of handsome guys, but for Ma Xiaoquan, who is still two centimeters short of one meter eight, the word "high" is still a little bit worse, and the Ma family, who looks like the Ming Dynasty, is also quite rich.
Liu Xiangxiang pursed her lips and said, "My grandfather brought me here to see you~"
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoquan smiled, "What are you doing when you see me?" ”
The little girl's face turned red: "I'm married to you~"
"This" Ma Xiaoquan looked at Mrs. Ma, saw the helplessness on Mrs. Ma's face, and then looked at the sister-in-law, and found that the sister-in-law was having a gloomy face.
"Little girl, you can eat randomly, you can't talk nonsense, I didn't promise to marry you or anything"
When Liu Xiangxiang heard this, she snorted: "Sister Qinghan said it just now, saying that we can get married~"
Li Qinghan was stunned for a moment, and screamed: "Sister Xiangxiang, when did I say it, don't talk nonsense~"
Liu Xiangxiang's mouth flattened: "Sister Qinghan Laipi, Sister Qinghan is not ashamed"
"You~" Li Qinghan was so angry that he was about to rush up, but Mrs. Ma grabbed Li Qinghan and shook her head gently.
Li Qinghan was very depressed, extremely depressed, she didn't say that sentence at all, this little girl pinched out such a sentence out of thin air, and lied properly.
Li Qinghan looked at Liu Yijing, meaning Lord Liu, you are in charge of your granddaughter, right?
Liu Yijing understood what Li Qinghan meant when he looked at him, but this little granddaughter couldn't afford to provoke him.
Liu Yijing smiled bitterly and selectively ignored Li Qinghan.
Li Qinghan was so angry that he stomped his foot hard and stopped talking.
In this round, Liu Xiangxiang won
The little girl grabbed Ma Xiaoquan's arm with a high toe and said, "Brother Quan, can I call you Brother Quan?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan is very helpless, this girl, although she is young, she is very thick-skinned.
"Brother Quan, if you don't speak, you should acquiesce~~" Liu Xiangxiang smiled proudly, and raised her eyebrows at Li Qinghan while laughing.
"Hmph~~" Li Qinghan shook down his sleeves fiercely, and simply turned his head and didn't look at anyone
Seeing Li Qinghan turn his head, Liu Xiangxiang immediately became reserved.
"Brother Quan, it's not time to eat yet, I want to take a look at Ma's house, can you take me to see it?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly in his heart, I haven't turned around the Ma family much, and you still let me take you around? Funny, right?
