Chapter 109: Ma Qianqian
Miss Ma was squatting on the ground washing a large basin of dishes, chopsticks, knives and forks in front of her. Forget about washing dishes, the woman who came to call her just now was sitting opposite Miss Ma, picking up two bowls from time to time and throwing them in the basin, and the splash hit Miss Ma's face, this is winter, or use cold water to wash dishes. This insulting behavior did not make Miss Ma any dissatisfied, and she still lowered her head to wash the dishes.
"Hehe, after going out, your wings are stiff? I also brought a man back casually, let me tell you in advance, half of this drinking party that Daddy made today is for you. Don't think about other men, you're going to get married soon. The woman said proudly, "Don't think it's great to know a few words, a cheap maid is a cheap maid, hum." ”
Xia Qiu was so excited when he saw this scene outside that he was about to rush up and beat the woman, but was stopped by Luo Wen: "Don't be impatient, don't you see that Miss Ma has no reaction." Don't get excited, this is someone's house, let's go, let's go back and wait for her. The two returned to Miss Ma's courtyard.
After a long time, Miss Ma came back. Seeing that the two hadn't left yet, Miss Ma was stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "You saw it?"
"Well, why didn't you tell me?" asked Xia Qiu angrily.
"In the past, everyone just met in the water, and there is no need to tell you. Miss Ma smiled shallowly, "But since you've all seen it, I'm afraid you won't leave if I don't say it, right?" Of course, this "you" refers to Xia Qiu.
"Sit down and listen to me slowly. Miss Ma changed the set of clothes that were soaked with cold water, and became everyone's beautiful Miss Ma again.
It turned out that Miss Ma's name was Ma Qianqian, and she was the eleventh daughter of the current patriarch of the Ma family. But she was the fruit of her father's drunkenness, and her mother was a stable man. Although she is also her own daughter, but her father is patriarchal and has always wanted a son, and the big house has made all kinds of difficulties for their mother and daughter, and the patriarch and father looked at them pitifully and gave them an independent courtyard in this corner, and they have not asked again.
Fortunately, Ma Qianqian has read some books and knows some words since she was a child, and Dafang let her be responsible for some long-distance transactions that others are unwilling to do, and she may also wish that she would be killed by the thieves on the road, so as not to be upset. Fortunately, Ma Qianqian is smart, and he has been safe and sound in various empires for so many years.
"This is the sorrow of the big family, the daughter is the tool of marriage, not to mention that I am not even able to marry with a low birth. Fortunately, the second brother took good care of me, so I was not bullied by them too much. Ma Qianqian finished calmly.
After listening to Luo Wen and Xia Qiu, they didn't know whether to answer, and the room was quiet for a few seconds.
"Okay, don't worry, I'm fine, you guys go back. Ma Qianqian comforted the two men instead.
Xia Qiu agreed to come to see her tomorrow, and the two left. When the two walked away, Ma Qianqian sighed silently.
According to the address provided by Ma Qianqian, Luo Wen and Xia Qiu found the inn where the White Ash Mercenary Group was located, and the bearded people were very happy to see Luo Wen and they arrived safely in Stone City. Originally, he was supposed to leave for Flying Fish City as soon as possible, but the bearded man took a mission and had to wait for his employer in Stone Town for two days.
After going back, Xia Qiu was sullen, and no one would be happy to see the girl he liked being treated like this, and it took a while of comfort from his good friends to make him feel a little relieved. After thinking about it for an afternoon, Xia Qiu made a major decision: he would confess to Ma Qianqian tomorrow! Everyone must join in this excitement, so he decided to go together tomorrow to help Xia Qiu.
"I have to go, my brother's first confession is not what I can do!" Fat laughed, he liked to join in the fun.
"Do we need to bring any gifts? After all, you can't go to someone's house empty-handed, right?" asked Bao who was the most knowledgeable in inquiring about people's affairs.
"Well, what Brother Bao said is reasonable, the gift will be handed over to Qiu Yuan and Jin Qiaozi, you are girls with more delicate thoughts. Don't save it!" Rowan gave the honorable task to the two girls. "Tomorrow, everyone will dress up handsome and beautiful, but you can't lose face to Brother Xia. ”
This night, Xia Qiu lost sleep with excitement.
The next day, in the morning, Luo Wen, Xia Qiu and the two girls went to buy gifts. After lunch, everyone rented a carriage and came to Ma's house.
"Please inform Ma Qianqian, Xia Qiu and his friends are visiting. Today, Xia Qiu put on a handsome white ** robe, wiped the three-star brooch on his chest that represented the intermediate magician, and stepped forward to knock on the door.
The porter looked, yo, isn't this the magician from yesterday, hurry up and open the door, after all, the magician he still can't afford to provoke.
didn't wait long, Ma Qianqian came. When I saw that everyone was here, and how to dress up so formally, I was puzzled, but I still greeted everyone one by one and took everyone to my yard.
On the road, Xia Qiu and Ma Qianqian walked in the front.
"What are you bringing the big guy for?" Ma Qianqian asked.
"Oh, everyone is okay today, you said come with me to see what the rich family in Stone Town is like, don't you mind?" Xia Qiu smiled.
"Oh, that's it......" Ma Qianqian didn't doubt it.
From the main gate to Ma Qianqian's courtyard, there were several corridors, and in the second corridor, Ma Qianqian met the slightly chubby woman. Ma Qianqian habitually flashed to the side and bowed his head to say hello: "Hello fourth sister." ”
Everyone in the back also followed with a "Hello Fourth Sister", which startled the Fourth Sister. Lo and behold, hey, six magicians, four samurai, all handsome and heroic young men. The fourth sister is also a person who has seen the world, the senior warriors who come and go in the family, and the senior magicians have seen a lot, but I have never seen Ma Qianqian bring any magician friends back.
"Oh...... Hello, Qianqian, these are all your friends?" the fourth sister asked weakly.
"Yes, yes. Ma Qianqian was also frightened by everyone's neat "fourth sister".
"Fourth sister, this is a gift that we Xia Qiu has prepared for you, please smile. Rowan interjected and handed over a small box. Today's gift will be handed over to Lowan, who will let him have a space ring.
The fourth sister was stunned and took it, watching this group of people walk away, "What's the situation...... "Open the small box and take a look, good guy! A pair of gold bracelets, a gold necklace! Who are these people, they don't know each other, and they will give this big gift as soon as they meet!
The crowd continued to move forward, and when they were about to turn in front of the reception hall to go to the courtyard, a person came out of the reception hall.
"Mother, why are you here?" asked Ma Qianqian in surprise. No wonder she asked, Ma Qianqian's mother was not qualified to enter the living room of the Ma family, and she usually went back and forth between the stable and the small courtyard.
"Qianqian, let's go, let's go back and pack our things, let's leave this house, don't stay!" Ma Qianqian's mother's chest rose and fell at this time, looking very angry.
A person came out of the reception hall and shouted, "I think which of you dares to go?!"
