Chapter 195: Pressing Forward
Seeing that the other party was asking himself, Chai Jingnan smiled and said with a childish smile,
"The name of the juniors is Chai Jingnan, the seniors all call me Jing'er, and Aunt Xiangxiang can also call me that."
"Jing'er is such a good boy!"
Accustomed to hearing others always call "Mrs. and Mrs.", now the child's "Aunt Luxiang" in front of her immediately made her eyebrows happy and asked affectionately,
"Jing'er, what do you like to eat? Auntie will make it for you to eat in a while. ”
The originally serious atmosphere suddenly turned into an intimate scene like a family affair, and everyone's mood relaxed.
Chai Jingnan was also not polite, still with his innocent and lovely smile and said,
"Jing'er likes to eat lotus root, is it okay?"
"Of course!"
Luxiang agreed very simply,
"You sit down first, and I will go to the kitchen and give an order to the servants to prepare it first, and I will cook the lunch for everyone to eat."
"Madame, please, I'm sorry to be sorry for Madame."
Zhou Zhen nodded and smiled.
Watching Luxiang walk out of the living room, Nuan Cui's expression became melancholy again,
"Daochang Zhou and Doctor Li are right, it seems that Ma Ye is really framing me."
"But why? Have you ever wondered why? ”
Zhou Zhen asked with concern.
Nuan Cui looked up at the two of them and sighed,
"So far, I won't hide it from the two of you, in fact, this Guizhou seems to be peaceful, but there are many uneasiness hidden, first of all, our Yi tribesmen, at the beginning, because of the sincerity of the great tomorrow, surrendered without a fight, some people in the clan are not convinced by this, but fortunately, the saint appeases us, so that no one says anything more."
"Since this is the case, as the general of the Ming army, Ma Ye should not harm you, but should work together with the adults to maintain the peace of this place."
Zhou Zhen thought and said.
Nuan Cui shook her head with a wry smile and said,
"The Taoist chief doesn't know, some of the Han people who live here look down on our Yi tribe, and the Yi people are inevitably wary of foreign races, so there are often some conflicts, I think it is probably because of this that some Han people come to Ma to complain, and after a long time, it will naturally make him have an opinion on me, so there is this contradiction."
"Isn't that more than a contradiction?"
Zhou Zhen sneered,
"How can there be some contradictions and poison them, and they want to put both sides to death? In the view of the poor, it is not just because of this. ”
"Maybe, but I can't think of any other reason."
Nuan Cui was already full of sadness, and suddenly remembered something,
"Oh, by the way, don't tell Ah Xiang about my poisoning, if she knows about her temperament, she must go to Ma Ye's house."
"Okay,"
Having seen the bold personality of Luxiang, Zhou Zhen and Chai Jingnan nodded together very understandingly......
At lunchtime, it was really the chef who made a large table of dishes with the servants, because Chai Jingnan's sentence "I like to eat lotus root", which led to at least six dishes related to lotus root. While eating, Chai Jingnan praised the left and right sentences, and couldn't close his mouth with the luxury fragrance.
A lively meal was finally finished, Zhou Zhen and Chai Jingnan went to the back guest room to rest, Nuan Cui was going to deal with official business, and Hao Xiang took the servants to do housework in the inner house, and everything seemed to be very calm.
Let's say that Nuan Cui came to the front hall, and just asked the entourage to take the paperwork from this period of time to himself, when he saw Aru running in and said,
"My lord, Ma Ye is here."
Aru and Ji Zhi are the personal entourage who have followed him since childhood, and they are basically with Nuan Cui all the time, of course, including when Li Rusi detoxified him, so what they said at that time, he and the two of them generally heard it very clearly, and at this time, they had already hated Ma Ye, and even when they mentioned him, they just called him by his name.
Nuan Cui listened to the newspaper, thought about it, put down the official document in his hand and said,
"Okay, I'll go see him, you come with me."
The two walked to the lobby, and as they walked, Nuan Cui instructed uneasily,
"When I see him for a while, you must not act too impulsively, the person in charge here is me, don't interject when you speak, understand?"
"Yes, my lord, but if he wants to harm you again, Aru will never agree."
Aru pouted and muttered.
Nuan Cui sighed and said,
"You don't have to worry about this, just follow my instructions on what to do."
The two places were not far apart, and after the two of them said a few words, they had already arrived, turned into the lobby from the back door, and sure enough, they saw Ma Ye sitting there and didn't know what he was thinking.
Nuan Cui stepped forward in a few steps and arched his hand,
"I don't know if the general has arrived, Nuan Cui has missed the distance, and I hope the general will forgive the sins."
"Nuan Cui, my lord?!"
Hearing his voice, Ma Ye seemed to be taken aback, turned his head, stood up and looked him up and down as if he were scrutinizing, before returning the salute,
"Where, this official suddenly visited, and I ask for your forgiveness."
Let's say that this Ma Ye is a talent, although he has no armor at this time, but he is wearing a robe with arrow sleeves and a sword hanging under his ribs, which looks quite majestic.
Nuan Cui asked Alu to make tea, and asked him to sit down, and when the two of them sat down, Ma Ye raised his eyes and looked at him again,
"My lord, you and I left Beijing not long ago, why are you only coming back now?"
"Hibiki, I'm ashamed,"
Nuan Cui deliberately smiled bitterly and said,
"The general didn't know that the lower officer accidentally had a bad stomach on the way back, and he couldn't get out of bed for three days in a row, so he had to keep it in the shop, and he was able to rush back until he was raised."
"Got a bad stomach?"
Ma Ye's expression looked very strange, and he was stunned before he asked again,
"So how is your health now? Feeling better? ”
"It's been a big deal for a long time,"
Nuan Cui smiled lightly,
"It's all a minor illness, and if you're cured, there's nothing to do."
"That's good,"
A hint of coldness flashed in Ma Ye's eyes,
"Otherwise, something will really happen to the adults, and it will be really difficult to handle."
"Oh, by the way, the general is here today, but is there anything you want to order?"
Nuan Cui didn't want to be so flattering with him anymore, so she asked directly.
Ma Ye nodded and said,
"Yes, there's something. I don't know if your wife has ever told you that our army has to raise 300,000 stone of grain, and this has to be provided by adults. ”
"About this matter, the lower officer was about to tell the general,"
Nuan Cui seems to have thought about it, saying,
"At present, the new crop of grain has not yet reached the harvest period, and it is a little difficult to raise 300,000 stones temporarily, why don't you raise 100,000 stones for the army first, raise 100,000 stones next month, and raise the remaining 100,000 stones next month, what does the general think?"
"This ......"
Ma Ye first raised his eyebrows, and soon his eyes rolled again, and then he raised his hand and gently patted the armrest of the chair, saying,
"It's okay, then it's decided, and the official will leave."
"Thank you General for being so lenient, wait for the lower officials to see you off."
Seeing that the other party had already gotten up, Nuan Cui also stood up, suddenly feeling some pain in her back, and couldn't help but hesitate. 2k reading web
