Chapter 35 A Warm Invitation

When the official knocked on the door of Mai's house, Tang Yujun and Mai Xiaofang had just returned from feeding rabbits in the backyard. Tang Yujun took a fancy to the little rabbit with black ears and snow-white on his body, Mai Xiaofang negotiated a deal with him at the price of one or two pieces of silver, and the two of them talked and laughed and returned to the yard when they heard a knock on the door.

There are still such polite people in the village, Tang Yujun accompanied Mai Xiaofang to open the door, and when the official saw Tang Yujun, who was dressed well, he forgot what he was going to say next, and looked straight at Tang Yujun and Mai Xiaofang.

He didn't like this person's eyes, Tang Yujun took a few steps forward, blocked the man's gaze towards Mai Xiaofang, and asked in an unkind tone: "If you have something, just say it, are you dumb?" ”

Hiss! There are still people who dare to talk to the official like this, and the people of Shaxi Village have opened their eyes, and what makes them strange, the official not only did not get angry, but his attitude became more respectful. As soon as he wanted to apologize and say a few good words, he heard Huo Dong, the county magistrate, exclaim, "You are ...... You are the little master of Tang Dashan's family. ”

"Ahh What's the matter, who are you? ”

"I invited the county magistrate to come." Qu Hao walked to the door with a smile, and Tang Yujun, who was blocking the way, hugged his fists and saluted the county lord: "Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come and witness for me and my sister, Qu Hao has thanked me here." ”

The county lord avoided it sideways, he didn't dare to accept the visit of the county guard, he couldn't ask for this opportunity, not to mention just being a witness, even if it was ten or a hundred times more difficult than this, he would not postpone it.

Qu Hao saw that the outside of the Mai family was full of people, he cleared his throat and said, "This is the county lord of your Pingliang County, and the village chief can testify to this." ”

Pan Mingqiu nodded hurriedly, as the village head, of course he had seen the county magistrate, and it was the first time for the people to see such a big official! There are those who make trouble, there are those who kowtow, and there are those who come to the county magistrate to look and see, if it weren't for the officials to stop them, they all want to reach out and touch them, the living county master! It's the first time I've seen it today!

"I am from Qingcheng County, surnamed Qu, named Hao, and Mai Xiaohuan hit it off when I passed by Shaxi Village last time. I want to recognize her as my sister, so I asked the county magistrate to be a witness today. ”

The son of the county guard family wants to recognize the thin and small Xiao Huan of the Mai family as his sister, and the crowd suddenly exploded, and the voice became louder and louder, and it was higher and higher.

Someone pushed Wu and asked her what was going on, the real situation was 108,000 miles away from what she just said!

"Who...... Who knows! The boy ...... "She wanted to say who could guarantee that the son was not a liar, and when she caught a glimpse of the village chief and the county magistrate Huo Dong, she swallowed back the words that came to her lips.

The county magistrate introduced Qu Hao's identity to the villagers of Shaxi Village, and when everyone learned that he was really the son of the county guard, the discussion sounded again, and the scene boiled again.

Qu Hao just took advantage of this time to order someone to set up an incense case, and asked Mai Xiaofang to accompany his sister back to change clothes.

After the fresh melons, fruits and incense candles were arranged, Qu Hao asked people to move two chairs, Mai Xiaohuan was fast enough, changed into a pink skirt, and tied a pink hairband on her head, not to mention, she really looks good when she dresses up like this, and she doesn't look like a village girl anymore.

Mai Xiaoling's eyes are glued to her cousin, is she worthy of such clothes and such a hairband? Mai Xiaoling bit her lip and endured the rush to snatch the new clothes and shook Wu's arm, the meaning was quite obvious, she wanted such a good thing.

Wu patted his daughter's hand, the clothes on Mai Xiaohuan's body not only took a fancy to her daughter, but she also felt good, she was ruined by dressing that ugly girl, no matter what way she tried to get her own home, even if Xiaoling couldn't wear it, wouldn't there be Xiaohui!

Huo Dong looked Mai Xiaohuan up and down carefully, under the backdrop of the new clothes, Mai Xiaohuan looked delicate and much more attractive, as well as the calm and calm temperament that she faintly exuded, if such a little girl was placed in the county seat or elsewhere, who could believe that she was a little village girl!

No wonder the county guard's sons are impressed with her, yes, really good.

Qu Hao first took Mai Xiaohuan to meet the county commander Huo Dong, and politely asked him to take care of Mai Wang's family more in the future. Huo Dong patted his chest and assured, and told Mai Wang that he had something to do and went to the county government to find a servant or a clerk.

Pan Mingqiu assured with a very good look that the Maiwang family had him to take care of them in the village, and nothing would happen.

"Cut! Pull it down! Last time, if it wasn't for my cousin and Brother Qu coming forward, they would have died, if I'm not mistaken, you, the village chief, were the last to be there. Tang Yujun ruthlessly exposed Pan Mingqiu, this old guy is not a good bird.

Pan Mingqiu didn't know Tang Yujun's true identity, his face just showed a trace of displeasure, Huo Dong kicked him, and then Tang Yujun's words said: "What Young Master Tang said is that I will tell the village chief to take care of the Mai family, if anyone dares to bully them again, if the village chief can't handle it well, I will directly withdraw him." ”

Wu's body shook for a moment, with the words of the county order, can his little abacus still start? Fabric, flour, and Mai Xiaohuan's new clothes, what do you want? It's a big deal to wait for the county order and Qu Gongzi to leave, and bring your mother-in-law over again, even if they don't give something to their own family, it is always appropriate to give it to their mother-in-law!

Unexpectedly, at this time, Tang Yujun's voice sounded again: "Their family's things were given to Xiao Huan by Brother Qu and me, those who want to sell her and hurt her don't think about it at all, village chief, if anyone uses any excuse of filial piety to eat, drink, and money, I will come to you to settle accounts." ”

Tang Yujun spoke above, and Huo Xianling also quietly revealed his identity to Pan Mingqiu, as soon as he heard that Tang Yujun was the most favored youngest son of the richest man in Qingcheng, Pan Mingqiu swore to protect the Maiwang family.

Mai Xiaofang gave Tang Yujun a thumbs up, this thing is done well, look at how grandma and aunt will bully her mother and sister in the future.

was praised, even if it was silent, it made Tang Yujun happy, I don't know why, he just cared about Mai Xiaofang's views and opinions. Even if she is unreasonable, Tang Yujun likes to watch it and is willing to accommodate, this phenomenon has never appeared in his previous life, fresh and exciting.

Wu gritted his teeth with hatred, this person was so annoying, he disrupted his plans, let her just watch those good things go to other people's homes, how could it be, if it was not clear, she would come to the dark, even if she was caught, could the second family be embarrassed to send herself to see the official!

After making up her mind, she followed the flow of people to the door of Mai Xiaohuan's house, and watched Qu Hao and Mai Xiaohuan kowtow to Mai Wang and Shan Cuihua under the auspices of Huo Dong, and bowed down in front of the incense case and swore an oath.

Tang Yujun rubbed his hands and wanted to join in, because he looked very funny, and as soon as he moved, Mai Xiaofang pulled his sleeve.

"What do you want to do?"

"I ...... The two of them were having a good time and wanted to have a good time. ”

This person doesn't want to miss any excitement! Mai Xiaofang felt that there was nothing wrong with her sister calling her brother Qu Hao, but she couldn't accept letting her call Tang Yujun brother, don't ask her why, because she couldn't say it clearly.

Tang Yujun asked Mai Xiaofang the reason, Mai Xiaofang refused to say it clearly, Tang Yujun thought hard for a long time, thought that he had found the most correct explanation, and asked her in a whisper next to Mai Xiaofang, whether she didn't like to call her brother or was embarrassed to call her brother. Mai Xiaofang's face turned red and turned her head to ignore Tang Yujun, in exchange for a series of hearty laughter, and at this time, Qu Hao and Mai Xiaohuan's wedding ceremony was over.

A man who looked like a steward who followed Qu Hao walked out of the crowd and said loudly: "Today is a big day for our young master to recognize his relatives, in order to let all families follow suit, our young master has prepared a gift for every family in Shaxi Village, two packs of snacks and two catties of fruit. After a while, everyone will go to the village chief's house to receive gifts, and declare in advance that if there is a troublemaker, no matter what the reason, the gifts will be withdrawn. ”

Hearing the good news, the villagers rushed to the village chief's house, and after a while, the people at the gate were scattered.

Qu Hao asked people to order two tables of banquets from the county, and they were still warm when they were delivered, and the village chief, Qu Hao, and Tang Yujun accompanied the county order. Mai Wang and his two sons said that they would not share the table with the county order, and in the end, Mai Xiaohuan sat next to Qu Hao and thanked Huo Dong for his arrival on behalf of his family. Thank you Tang Yujun for being willing to appreciate the light, and even more grateful to Qu Hao for not disliking his identity and willing to recognize himself as a sister in this little village.

Is this really a little village girl? Huo Dong thought regretfully, it would be good if Mai Xiaohuan was born in a rich or powerful family, and if he taught him well, he would definitely not disappoint. Now it seems that luck seems to be good, relying on the big tree of the county guard, there should be no problem in marrying a big family in the county.

When Huo Dong was leaving, he told Pan Mingqiu to focus on taking care of Mai Wang's house, of course Pan Mingqiu agreed, and after everyone dispersed, it was almost dark. Qu Hao proposed to take Mai Xiaohuan home to meet her parents, Shan Cuihua and Mai Wan turned their heads to look at their daughter, and now that Qu Hao's identity has been confirmed, they have nothing to worry about, and let her take the rest of the ideas herself.

Can you say no? The head is kowtowed, so many people testify that it is already a sure thing that she is Qu Hao's sister, but how can you go by yourself! What about gifts? And make new clothes, and more than one.

As if seeing Mai Xiaohuan's concerns, Qu Hao smiled and said, "You can't recognize my brother in vain, can you?" As long as you nod your head, I will cover everything, you can rest assured, these expenses do not have to be paid by my family, they are all my own silver. We haven't had a little girl in our family for many years, and my mother must have liked you very much. ”

It's all said and done, can you still refuse?

On the other side, Tang Yujun was also instigating Mai Xiaofang, and he promised to help Mai Xiaofang get everything, as long as he followed.

After Mai Xiaofang decisively said "no", she turned around and went out to feed the chickens, so that she didn't touch the light of Tang Yujun!
