"Renjie, I'm really ashamed today. You saved Li Sheng's kindness, and I will repay you in the future in the future. Li Siye glanced at the person in the audience, his face immediately changed, and he hurriedly said to Ma Luan, even if he was in the desert and fled.

Obviously, he is also extremely jealous of the person in the audience.

Ma Xuan thought about who was so discerning that he could actually see Li Siye's methods just now. The two of them fought very quickly, and it could be seen that he was definitely a good player. Turning his head to look at the audience, he saw a beautiful girl with bright eyes and bright teeth with an angry face, and a white-bearded old man next to him smiled extremely kindly.

This is ......

Ma Lu remembered that this girl was Gao Xianzhi's daughter, the female overlord of Qiuzi Town. The old man next to him is an old servant in the family of Ma Lan, a man from Guanzhong, who has served the master of the Ma family for three generations and is loyal to the Ma family.

These people actually have nothing to do with him, but since he occupies this body, these relationships will naturally have to be inherited.

The bright-eyed girl was slender on the ground, and she actually climbed on the high platform. Glancing angrily at the direction of Li Siye's escape, the girl had an extra brocade handkerchief in her hand, and gently wiped away the sweat for Ma Lan. said softly: "Brother Ma Lan, are you tired?" ”

The Hermes-Epitek were accustomed to seeing the tall lady in the city of Qiuzi, and they had seen her have such a tender moment, and a burst of laughter broke out from under the high platform. Ma Lan grinned, he really couldn't adapt to such a situation, but he knew that this female overlord wanted to save face, and he couldn't offend her in public, so he had no choice but to take the handkerchief from the girl's hand and wipe the sweat clean by himself.

"Scattered, scattered!" Du Huan's big voice once again played a special role, although he was standing under the stage, it did not prevent his voice from spreading throughout the crowd, "After everyone goes back, don't forget the kindness of my general's today." ”

"Where?"

"The kindness of the general, we will never forget."

The crowd slowly dispersed, and Feng Changqing's personal soldiers also returned to the Anxi Mansion Treasury with their belongings to deliver. Ma Lan handed the handkerchief back to the bright-eyed girl, but the girl wrinkled her little nose and said with disgust: "I was soiled by you, wash it and return it to me." ”

Ma Xuan was helpless, so he had to put the handkerchief in his arms, then jumped off the high platform, walked quickly to the old man's side, and said respectfully: "Seventh uncle! ”

The old man nodded, looking at the new scar on Ma Lan's face, and felt sad for no reason.

Wiping the corners of his eyes, the old man's voice trembled slightly: "It's good to come back!" It's good to be back! Master, girl, let's go home! ”

"Hey!" The bright-eyed girl agreed very loudly beside her.

Ma Lan smiled bitterly in his heart, but in front of the old man, he could only nod respectfully, waved his hand and ordered the guards to disperse, leaving only Ma Yong and Ma Qiang by his side.

The two brothers were introduced to the old man, and when the seventh uncle heard that they were from the Fufeng Ma clan, he was naturally happy in his heart, and took out two pieces of money from his arms to reward the two. The elder gave it, naturally it could not be shirked, Ma Yong and Ma Qiang hurriedly accepted the reward and thanked him repeatedly.

Guanzhong man Ma Lan has only two properties in Qiuzi City, one is a color silk shop and the other is a spice shop, both of which are not very large. The old man insisted on taking Ma Lan to these two places to have a look, and Ma Lan had to follow the old man back to the city again.

These two shops can gain a foothold in Qiuzi City, relying on the hard work of the old man, and of course, it is also related to Ma Lu's status in Anxi. This time, Ma Lan followed General Gao to the west to conquer Dashi, but did not come back with General Gao, many people thought that Ma Lan was dead, and there were Hu merchants who planned to annex Ma's shop. Although there are rules in the industry, but the so-called wall is pushed by everyone, and at such a time, no peer is willing to help the Ma family say a word.

And now that Ma Lan has returned from meritorious service, these people are the same again. Ma Qi has lived to be seventy years old, and he has already seen through the hot and cold world, these are nothing, and he doesn't plan to care too much. Bringing his young master to the shop is just to deter those Hu merchants and make them more restrained in the future.

Listening to Qibo babbling about what happened these days along the way, looking at the old man's gray hair, Ma Lan suddenly felt extremely warm.

He was originally a thousand years later, and although these relatives who belonged to the Guanzhong man Ma Lan had to be inherited, he still subconsciously resisted in his heart. However, at this time, he stood beside the old man, and suddenly felt a sense of home.

Two small shops are nothing, and the wealth looted from the river this time is more than that. But this is the family business that the seventh uncle bought for the Ma family, and it is the hope for the seventh uncle, which is extremely important. He understood the old man's thoughts, and such thoughts could only be obedient.

"Young master, this time you didn't bring back the indiscriminate Hu Nu, did you!" Uncle Qi suddenly asked.

Ma Lan grinned and laughed dryly: "Just bring one, hehe!" ”

Kang Qingqing must be placed, and Du Huan will be sent to the Grange later. Other Sogdian girls can only be settled for the time being, and they will be taken care of later. Not to mention other Sogdian girls, Kang Qingqing is nominally his person, so many people know it, so naturally they want to recognize her identity.

The bright-eyed girl smiled silently, looking at Ma Lu and making a cute grimace.

"You kid!" Qi Bo glared and picked up his cane to make a gesture, but he only lightly tapped it on Ma Lu's back, "What's so good about Hu Nu, you have to get a few back every time you go on an expedition." Young master, you are almost thirty years old, and it is time for you to start a family. I'm already seventy years old, maybe one day I'll kick my legs, and if I don't watch you get married and leave a man and a woman for the Ma family, I won't be able to close my eyes when I die. ”

"Uncle Qi, your old man is in such good health, he will definitely be able to live a long life." The bright-eyed girl said obediently.

"yes, yes. Uncle Qi, the next generation of the Ma family, your old man will definitely be able to see it. Ma Lan also hurriedly said.

"What's so good about Hu Nu, it's still the daughter of the Han family who is liked. Young master, you see Qianqian is very good, she looks like a big woman. Her father is a tall general, and he is a good match with our family! Uncle Qi looked at the bright-eyed girl with a look of affection.

"Uncle!" The bright-eyed girl said coquettishly, wanting to show her shyness, but she couldn't do that after all, she suddenly glared at Ma Lan for no reason.

Ma Ling slandered in his heart, what kind of daughter of the Han family is Gao Qianqian, is it okay to be a Goguryeo person? However, the Goguryeo people and the Han people have the same lineage, the Gao family has been in Anxi for three generations, Gao Qianqian is a completely Sinicized Goguryeo woman, and the daughter of the Han family is no different.

No one in Anxi knows Gao Qianqian's identity, and Uncle Qi said this just to show his recognition of Gao Qianqian. In Ma Luan's opinion, Uncle Qi is interested in Gao Qianqian, and I am afraid that it is more about the status of Gao Da General. The Ma family was prominent at first, then the decline of the middle way, and now it is making a comeback, he has followed the ups and downs of the Ma family in his life, and it is naturally practical to consider the problem, which is also a reasonable thing.

"This girl is still shy!" Uncle Qi smiled with wrinkles on his face, "Young Master, say something!" Qianqian, this child I look good, the family background is good, you are not young, it's rare that this child likes you so much, why don't you settle down! ”

The bright-eyed girl's face turned red after all, and she turned her head slightly, but pricked up her ears to listen to Ma Luan's answer.

"Is this...... Hehe, Qibo, think about it in the long run, think about it in the long run, hehe! Ma Lan laughed dryly and said quickly.

Although I know that this will inevitably offend the female overlord, I can't care so much. After all, he and this beautiful girl are actually just meeting for the first time, and the person this girl likes is not him.

The experience of his previous life made him look down on his feelings. Since he is destined to marry a wife and have children in this life, it is good to marry a suitable one, and he doesn't want to be extravagant about feelings or anything. But when we met for the first time, we had to make sure of these things, and he still couldn't do it. And Gao Qianqian likes the original Ma Lan, and it is a little immoral to accept her.

The red cloud on Gao Qianqian's face disappeared in an instant, turned her head and glared at Ma Lan fiercely, and said angrily: "Ma Renjie, what do you mean!" Isn't this girl worthy of you? Why don't we learn from each other? ”

The fierceness of this woman has a deep impression in the memory left by the man in Guanzhong. Before Ma Lan could speak, Uncle Qi said with a smile: "Girl, you don't know, I used to mention other daughters to him, but he directly refused, and never said anything about the long term." In my opinion, my young master likes you, but he has always been thin-skinned, so he will be like this, hehe! ”

"Uncle Qi, I already knew that he liked me. Now that he is saying such things again, how can I not be angry! Gao Qianqian said slightly angrily, "This time he came back with great achievements, I don't know how many women will target him." If you've always liked me, why can't you marry me? Ma Renjie, have you forgotten what you said before? I'm sixteen years old, when do you want me to wait! ”

Seeing this little girl's angry appearance, Ma Lan couldn't help but be a little funny.

Did the Guanzhong man like her before? Ma Lan carefully searched the memories left by the original Ma Lan, and found that the original Ma Lan did have something to do with this girl. But it's not anything special, because there are too many women who have anything to do with this prodigal, and most of them have been taken back to the grange outside the city by him, and he didn't bring her home, that is, because she is the daughter of a tall general.

Born in a family of eunuchs and a ranger, the Guanzhong man Ma Lan and the vulgar Anxi military man are naturally different in the eyes of those Huaichun women. There are only a few dozen of them in the grange, but they are actually quite modest.

"Four years ago, you told me that you would marry me when you were crowned marquis! What do you mean by this shirk now! The bright-eyed girl crossed her waist and looked very angry.

Four years ago......

Ma Lan searched his memory and found that there was really such a thing. For the predecessor of this body, Ma Lan couldn't help but scold. How small should this girl be four years ago, what's the matter with you provoking others, and now leaving such a ** annoying.

The original picture of Ma Lan pulling Gao Qianqian to talk about love appeared in front of him, and the corners of Ma Lan's mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly. This predecessor deserves to be a well-known prodigal, and he is really cold.
