Where can the old man take a fancy to ordinary farmers.

Mrs. Ma greeted the ladies to eat and drink amiably, and asked the three of them from time to time how they tasted, what their preferences were, and so on.

Li Xiufeng is the most lively, but in the end, it is someone else's house, and it is also a lot cramped.

But when she met a shrewd person like Mrs. Ma, it didn't take long for Li Xiufeng to go out one by one with the population and days of her family, without a trace of defense.

A meal is a joy for both the guests and the host!

Ma Hongye also wanted Patriarch Li to rest here for one night before going to live in another courtyard, but Patriarch Li resolutely refused, only saying that he had other things to do tomorrow, lest it be too late.

Seeing this, Ma Hongye didn't dare to stay longer, beckoned his subordinates to prepare the carriage and personally sent them over.

Mrs. Ma also personally sent them into the carriage, and even had people bring a lot of things to put in the carriage behind.

Before leaving, they even stuffed a purse into each of the three of Zhao's arms, indicating that it was a meeting gift, which provoked the Zhao family to hurry back.

In the end, it was Ma Hongye who said to Patriarch Li that only this once, and then he would give up!

Li Xiufeng was very curious, the purse given by Mrs. Ma was satin embroidered, which was very exquisite.

The difference is that the purse in Zhao's hand is slightly darker, while the purse in Li Xiufeng and Chai Shuiqing's hands is a light color suitable for a little girl.

It can be seen that the old lady is very shrewd.

Li Xiufeng reluctantly touched her purse, and finally opened it to take a look, and was speechless for a while.

Chai Shuiqing stuffed one in his hand to Li Xiufeng: "Are you stupid?" This one is also for you. ”

She just touched the Li family's bare rice, and she would have to rub it later, and it was not good to take things again.

Seeing this, Zhao didn't care about looking at his purse, and hurriedly stuffed it back to Chai Shuiqing, with a serious face: "Da Nizi is the face of a shy aunt, this is the old lady named to you, you are so good to take it, don't give it to Feng'er anymore!" ”

Seeing Zhao say this, Chai Shuiqing was even more embarrassed.

It's just that he excused himself again, but he didn't give the Li family face, Chai Shuiqing could only accept it cheekily, thinking about where to subsidize the Li family!

After all, what's in your purse isn't bad.

Li Xiufeng opened his purse, and a very solid silver naked child was lying in it, with carp, blessing melon, beans and other styles, each of which weighed about three or two.

In the eyes of the Li family, this is a big deal.

Zhao looked at what his daughter had gotten, and was also taken aback, and then poured out his own, and he couldn't speak.

Six round gold beads, solid beads lying on the palm of the hand, each with about two taels.

Chai Shuiqing's is the same as Li Xiufeng, and what surprised Zhao even more was the several boxes placed in the back, all of which were good things.

The three sets of four treasures of the study were packed in delicate wooden boxes, one box contained a ginseng, and another box contained a set of red gold heads and a box of silver hairpin beads. There are also five pieces of various colored cloths, not to mention all kinds of food.

Seeing these gifts, Zhao only felt hot, she just wanted the carriage to stop quickly, so that she could show her father-in-law something, this thing was too valuable, she didn't dare to ask for it.

Chai Shuiqing understood the meaning of the Ma family's sending these, the red gold head noodles were for the Zhao family, and as for the silver hairpins, beads, flowers, etc., they were given to the Zhao family's daughter-in-law and Li Xiufeng.

As for the others, they are for the other men of the Li family.

In front of the carriage, Ma Hongye told the situation of the Feng family Zhuangzi to the Li patriarch.

"The Feng family Zhuangzi is the property of a big family in the capital, and the Zhuangzi is surnamed Feng Yimai. I heard that the Feng family Zhuangzi is the dowry of a Shen family's aunt and grandmother, and now it is handed over to the people below to take care of it. ”

Thinking of those people in the Feng family's Zhuangzi, Ma Hongye shook his head unconsciously.

In the end, the emperor is far away, and a little steward is more nourishing than them.

"This steward of the Feng family's Zhuangzi is very arrogant because of the respect of the Shen family's aunt and grandmother, and no one dares to mess with it. I also heard that there are dozens of domestic servants in just one steward, and the younger generations in the family are even more lawless, thinking that there is less restraint from the master's family. This place is far away from the capital, and it has fattened a group of evil slaves! ”

The implication is that the Feng family Zhuangzi is not a good place to go.

Patriarch Li was a little worried when he heard this: "This time, I heard that they were looking for a cook, and it happened that my grandson married his daughter-in-law and got a good recipe, so someone introduced him." ”

If the steward is not good-natured, I am afraid that their journey will not go well.

Ma Hongye saw his junior brother's worries, and hurriedly comforted: "It's just a little steward, if they dare to make you angry at that time, Yinglian just come to me." In this county town, the Ma family can still speak. ”

Thinking that his junior brother is a person who doesn't like to trouble others, Ma Hongye pointed to the driver who was driving the car: "He lives near Fengjia Zhuangzi, I will leave him to take care of your family and nursing home, you just have to look for him if you have something." ”

Sometimes, there are many things that do not need him to come forward at all, as long as the Ma family is mentioned, no one will make trouble in the county town of Xijun.

Even, some people carefully remembered the descendants of the Ma family, and when they saw those faces, they knew that they could not be provoked.

Patriarch Li did not refuse this time, if he is not familiar with the place, it is better to be more careful.

The carriage walked for more than an hour before it arrived near Fengjia Zhuangzi.

Pushing open the wooden door on the carriage, Ma Hongye pointed to the scattered farmhouse courtyard not far away and explained: "That is the Feng family Zhuangzi." ”

Patriarch Li saw that Zhuangzi was not small, and there were many fields.

The carriage stopped at a house near the official road, and the house of the second entrance was a little old, but it was not dilapidated because it was taken care of.

"It's a little broken, you see......"

Ma Hongye personally helped Patriarch Li get out of the carriage, and he felt a little unbearable.

The junior brother has suffered for decades, but he has not been able to live a good life, and now that he is in his place, it is still the same, how can he feel at ease......

Patriarch Li waved his hand: This is much better than the house in Hedong Village.

Gray tiles and blue walls, two willow trees are planted on the left and right at the entrance of the second house, and the word 'horse house' is written on the black plaque.

After another period of hospitality, after being busy, Patriarch Li asked Ma Hongye to go back, and he wanted to rest.

Ma Hongye instructed his subordinates to wait for him, so he left uneasily.

As soon as the others left, Zhao hurried the porter and the coachman out, opened the things, and showed them to his father-in-law one by one.

"Father-in-law, I didn't expect her to give these, this ......"

At this time, Zhao was very worried, afraid that his father-in-law would deliver the goods.

Patriarch Li looked at the things in front of him, and then looked at the appearance of his granddaughter bowing her head and holding the delicate purse, and for a while felt that all the qi was blocked in her heart and could not be expressed.

thought that if he hadn't insisted on coming back for decades, maybe his family would have been able to live a prosperous life like the Ma family.

Thinking of this, Patriarch Li waved his hand helplessly and tiredly: "Give it and take it!" ”

As for how to arrange it, it is the daughter-in-law's business, and he handed over these things to the eldest daughter-in-law when he split up in the early years, which is naturally because of trust.

The Zhao family accepted it with joy and worry on the other, and beckoned Patriarch Li to rest with Li Xiufeng, and then returned to the room.

Li Xiufeng looked at the house she lived in and liked it very much: "Mother, I didn't expect them to be willing to use this bed, this cloth is too good." ”

Touching the light pink veil, Li Xiufeng looked at the room enough, and felt good about everything at this time.

Zhao nodded his daughter's forehead and instructed: "Don't say this in front of your grandfather, he may feel uncomfortable!" ”

In my father-in-law's heart, there seems to be some secret.
