Li Qingling nodded with a smile, saying that she was rarely free today, so she cooked the kitchen herself.
After saying this, she told Liu Zhimo in a low voice, telling him not to eat so much venison, it would be easy to get angry.
Liu Zhimo hummed, stood up impatiently, and dragged Li Qingling to eat.
As for the Ma family, Ma Xiancheng returned home and saw a large plate of meat on the table. Several children sat on the chairs and stared at the plate of meat, almost drooling.
When those children saw Ma Xiancheng came back, they obediently called their father, and then shouted at Hu Juanjuan, saying that father was back and they could eat.
Hu Juanjuan responded, and quickly brought out the vegetables and rice from the kitchen.
"Why do you want to buy meat today?" Ma Xiancheng glanced at Hu Juanjuan and asked in surprise, didn't you eat meat half a month ago? Why buy it again
There are many children in the family and they are not rich. Eating meat once a month is considered a luxury, let alone once every half a month.
After Hu Juanjuan served rice to Ma County Cheng and the others, she sat down and said that it was not bought, it was given by the county magistrate's wife.
Ma Xiancheng looked up at Hu Juanjuan, frowned and asked her, how did she find the county magistrate's wife
If He Dianshi knew about this, why not give him little shoes
Hasn't Madam been very cautious all the time? Why are you so impulsive this time
Hu Juanjuan gave Ma Xiancheng a blank look, and said calmly: "The county magistrate's wife is here, of course I have to go see her, otherwise, they will think you are crazy and disdain to see him?" If you want to be good at home, It must be a good relationship with the county magistrate's wife and the others, so as not to leave a bad impression on the county magistrate's wife.
"You... What did you bring to see the county magistrate's wife?"
"Vegetables grown at home."
"..." The corners of Ma Xiancheng's eyes twitched, and his brows frowned even tighter, "I just gave away the vegetables grown at home, nothing else?"
Hu Juanjuan hummed, not paying attention to Ma Xiancheng's worries, she added food to the children and asked them to eat quickly.
The family is poor, what valuables can she give to the county magistrate's wife? Besides, what good things haven't the county magistrate's wife seen? She felt that these ordinary vegetables and fruits would be more liked by the county magistrate's wife.
Hearing that Ma Xiancheng almost lost the bowl in his hand, he took a deep breath and asked her, what is the magistrate's wife's reaction
He felt that his wife's temper was too straightforward, and she easily offended others.
"The county magistrate's wife likes it very much, and asked me to give her some vegetable seeds tomorrow. She will open up some land in the garden at home to grow vegetables."
"Really?" Ma Xiancheng looked at Hu Juanjuan suspiciously, how could the magistrate's wife grow vegetables by herself? Like the wives of the previous county magistrates, they were either ill or pretended to be noble when they came here. They did not communicate with ordinary people. All the things at home were bought, and they could not have been grown by themselves.
Hu Juanjuan glared at Ma Xiancheng, saying that she has always been very accurate in seeing people, how could she be wrong
"Of course it is true. I think the current magistrate and magistrate's wife will not be like the previous ones. They will do practical things for the people."
"Oh? How do you say it?" It's rare for his wife to praise a person. If she can be praised so much by her wife, then the new county magistrate must have something different from his wife.
Hu Juanjuan slowly told Ma Xiancheng what happened today, and as soon as she finished speaking, Ma Xiancheng asked her with raised eyebrows, would Mr. Liu really go to the ground by himself
When he thought of the magistrate's noble aura, he really couldn't believe that he was someone who would go down to earth
He even wondered if the county magistrate knew the whole grains
Hu Juanjuan could tell what Ma Xiancheng was thinking at a glance, she pursed her lips and said: "The magistrate's wife said that they came from the countryside, and the county magistrate will go to the field. Not only will he go to the field, but he will also order the family The children of the family went to the fields, and in their house, if they didn’t work, they would have nothing to eat.”
When she said this, she took a meaningful look at Ma Xiancheng, and then glanced at the children in her family.
County magistrate Ma touched his nose and asked Hu Juanjuan if she really trusted what the county magistrate's wife said
"Is it true? If you follow the county magistrate, you will always confirm this."
"That's, that's..." Ma Xiancheng chuckled, took a piece of meat and put it in Hu Juanjuan's bowl, "Miss, eat meat."
Hu Juanjuan hummed, looked at the children, and told them not to eat so much meat. It was venison, which was too nourishing and easy to get angry.
Those children seldom eat a meal of meat, how can they listen to Hu Juanjuan's words, and talk about it after eating it, regardless of whether it gets angry
Hu Juanjuan looked at it and stared angrily.
These children were really disobedient, as if she deliberately refused to let them eat meat and was harsh on them.
As a mother, how can she be so bad in her heart
Ma Xiancheng took a piece of venison, put it in his mouth, chewed it, swallowed it, and then said, "Where did the magistrate's wife buy the venison, it's quite tender." After speaking, he ate another piece , as expected, the meat is still delicious. How can there be any taste if you eat steamed buns and vegetables every day
His greatest wish in this life is to be able to eat meat every day, but unfortunately, he doesn't know when this wish will come true
If the county magistrate can let the people have enough food and clothing, maybe his wish will come true.
"Didn't I tell you just now? This venison was hunted by the county magistrate's guards on the mountain." Hu Juanjuan also thought the venison was delicious, and it was thanks to the county magistrate's wife that they could eat it , "Why did the magistrate bring so many guards here? Although our county is backward, no one will do any heinous things to the magistrate. What are they afraid of?"
Ma Xiancheng took a look at Hu Juanjuan and explained to her, "Those guards are not here to protect the county magistrate, but to protect Mr. Luo. Do you know who it is, Mr. Luo? They are the emperor's teacher. I heard that the emperor respects this person very much." Luo, so he sent a team of guards to protect him." Thinking of Mr. Luo, who is famous all over the world, his heart became hot, and he wondered whether Mr. Luo would accept his disciples, and could he teach some of his family members? son
If the four sons of his family can get some guidance from Mr. Luo, they will definitely be more promising than him in the future.
Looking at these half-grown sons, Ma Xiancheng felt a headache. As the saying goes, half-grown children eat their fathers to death. Isn’t this how his children eat too much and can’t do much work? He really yes…
Sighing silently, he looked at Hu Juanjuan again, and told him about the matter, and asked her to test the county magistrate's wife's tone after a while, and see if Mr. Luo could teach the children at home about their knowledge
"Mr. Luo is really that powerful?"
"Mr. Luo has only accepted three disciples in his life, one is the emperor, one is the general, and the other is the father of the county magistrate. Do you think he is powerful?" Ma Xiancheng had already found out these things clearly, and he admired Luo very much. Sir, "Even if the current prince, there are other princes who want to worship under the name of Mr. Luo, he will not accept it, and he firmly refuses."
"Then... the county magistrate is Mr. Luo's disciple?" Hu Juanjuan took a breath, "Mr. Luo's requirements are so high, will he give advice to our children?" She glared at her four children angrily. Son, except for the third son who is serious about studying, don't think about the other three sons.
"Father, if I get Mr. Luo's guidance, will I be able to become the number one scholar in this discipline like the county magistrate?" The third son, Ma Da, looked at Ma Xiancheng with burning eyes. Becoming the number one scholar in this discipline is the goal of every scholar .
He also wanted to be as powerful as the county magistrate.
Ma Xiancheng patted his son's head with a smile, and said that it might not be possible, but if you study hard, you can hope to become a powerful person like the county magistrate.
The county magistrate is so smart, he knows that his son doesn't have that head, but he can't hit his son, he has to let his son have a goal, so that he can keep going forward.
Motor clenched his fist vigorously and said he would work hard.
"Father is optimistic about you." Ma Xiancheng praised your third son, then looked at the other three sons, "What about you? If you have any ideas, you can talk to daddy." These three sons, he really is not Counting on it, he only hopes that they will not become illiterate, and he will be happy.
The eldest son Ma Zhi, the second son Ma Shu, and the fourth son Ma Li, the three children looked at each other, lowered their heads and whispered that they didn't like reading.
Ma Xiancheng frowned, and asked them what do they want to do if they don't like reading
The three brothers secretly looked up at their father, seeing that their father's face was not good, they didn't dare to speak out.
Hu Juanjuan sighed, and then glared at Ma Xiancheng, "Tell your mother, what do you want to do if you don't like studying? As long as it is reasonable, mother will support you." She also knew that these three children did not study. It's just that as parents, they always hope that their children will be successful.
The eldest son Ma Zhi looked up at Hu Juanjuan excitedly, and said loudly, I want to be a general and kill the enemy.
He felt that the general was a very mighty person, and when he thought of him, his heart beat.
"If you want to be a general, you need to study. How can you lead troops to fight if you don't study?" Ma Xiancheng opened his mouth and poured cold water on the eldest son. If you don't study, do you want to be an illiterate general
When Ma Zhi heard this, he took a break from cooking. He asked Hu Juanjuan, do you have to study to be a general
He thought it would be enough to lead troops to fight, but he didn't know that he had to study to be a general
Hu Juanjuan smiled and asked him, "Do you think the emperor will let an illiterate person be a general? Then how would he lead the army? Isn't it?" If the eldest son likes reading because of this, it's okay a good thing.
Ma Zhi scratched his head, thinking that what his parents said was quite reasonable, the emperor would not let an illiterate person be a general.
If he wants to be a general, shouldn't he study hard
But when he saw those words, he felt dizzy!
