Chapter 387 Is he still a good brother?
The 100-day feast of the grandson of the Ma family was really just an excuse. In fact, no guests were invited, except for his own family, which was also the Yan family. The Ma and Yan families are related by marriage, and the two families have always been close.
Although Patriarch Ma invited Song Yian that day, he was actually just casually saying that he didn't really want to invite him. Of course, he also knew in his heart that Song Yi'an would not come, as a concubine grandson, at most he would come here as a gift.
Patriarch Ma was right, Song Yi'an did not come. He's not stupid, he knows that the drunkard of the Ma family doesn't want to drink, so why is he rushing to make people dislike him?
As for the Zhang family, is it too late for the Ma family to take precautions? Take the initiative to invite? That is impossible.
"Father, do you think the magistrate will really come?" A **** of the Ma family asked impatiently.
Patriarch Ma, who was sitting in the main seat, drank tea slowly, as if he hadn't heard this sentence.
Ma Er, who was born next to him, had no idea, "Father, didn't that boy Yi'an not tell the magistrate?" He was much older than Song Yi'an. Although they were of the same generation, he always treated Song Yi'an as a junior. .
"It's still early, why are you in a hurry?" Patriarch Ma raised his eyes, "That kid from Yi'an is honest, since he agreed, he will definitely help. As for the magistrate...I think your father still has some face .”
Casting a few sons a look, a little dissatisfied, "Calm down, why panic? Let's think about how to entertain the county grandpa when he comes."
The faces of the sons were obviously happy when they heard the words, but soon became anxious again.
Seeing this, Patriarch Ma felt a little disappointment in his heart, but he was still overjoyed. The other sons are fine, the eldest son has become a grandfather, and he is still so careless, how can he not worry?
Actually, Patriarch Ma wasn’t sure if the magistrate would come. He said that just to comfort his sons.
Wen Jiuxiao really went, but it was quite late, almost noon.
Even so, everyone in the Ma family was very pleasantly surprised. The head of the Ma family greeted him personally as a companion, and the eldest son of the Ma family led him to the table, and respectfully led him to the seat of honor. Wen Jiuxiao declined a little, and then sat down happily.
He is the parent officer of Shanyun County, and there is no one who is bigger than him. If he is not the leader, who will be the leader?
Since it was the children's hundred-day banquet, Wen Jiuxiao naturally had to say a few words first, such as "Happy to have grandchildren, and the population is prosperous", and then Patriarch Ma said a few more polite words, such as "My lord appreciates face", "Ma's family is full of prickly pears" and so on. Brilliance, three lives are lucky" and so on.
You come and I exchange pleasantries, and the banquet begins. Patriarch Ma stood up and toasted Wen Jiuxiao. Although Wen Jiuxiao had no expression on his face, he gave him face, but every time he picked up the wine glass, he only slightly touched his lips. .”
Changing someone else, Ma Patriarch will definitely not be happy, what’s the matter, you don’t even drink up the wine toast you, it doesn’t give you face, right? It can be heard that Jiuxiao is the magistrate of the county, not only can Patriarch Ma not get angry, but he also laughed, "Your Excellency, do whatever you want."
After Patriarch Ma paid respects, Patriarch Yan continued to respect, Wen Jiuxiao still slightly touched his lips. At this time, Patriarch Ma said again, "Just drinking like this is not fun. The grass people have a few granddaughters who have learned some talents. The girls from small places are very vulgar. Please take a look at them and have fun."
After clapping his hands, several beautifully dressed girls came out, some were playing the piano, some were dancing, and their straight eyes glanced straight at Wen Jiuxiao's face. What's more, she danced directly in front of Wen Jiuxiao, scratching her head and making poses, not to mention how provocative she was.
Even a fool knows what this means?
Not right, in fact, he glanced out.
Qingfeng who was waiting outside immediately made an excuse to change clothes, and took the opportunity to leave Ma's house. The carriage did not arrive, so he trotted to the street, hired a carriage, returned to the county office, and went straight to the back house.
"What, the third master went to Ma's house to drink and watch a beautiful girl dance?" Yu Zhi suddenly raised his head.
Qingfeng's face froze, and he corrected with a smile, "Mrs. Hui, no. It's the 100-day banquet for the grandson of the Ma family. I invite the third master to have a wedding wine."
"Didn't you say there are still girls singing and dancing?" Yu Zhi did not forget what he said before.
"It was Patriarch Ma who suddenly called out his granddaughter to sing and dance..."
Yu Zhi rolled his eyes, "Isn't this just watching beautiful girls dance? Oh, your third master is happy and happy! The little life is very beautiful. Tell me, you don't have fun there with your master, what are you doing when you come back? Notification Madam Ben, your master is staying there tonight, won't you come back?" His eyes shot at Qingfeng like knives.
Qingfeng was so frightened that cold sweat broke out, "Young Madam, don't be suspicious, the third master's heart for you can be learned from the sun and the moon, the third master..."
"Speak human." Yu Zhi looked over with a cold look.
Qingfeng was startled, "Patriarch Ma is very bad, and wants to force the third master to drink. The third master is afraid that he will not be able to drink, so please ask the young lady to pick him up."
Yu Zhi laughed all of a sudden, and squinted at Qingfeng, "I'm going to pick him up? Aren't you afraid of messing up your master's good business?"
Qingfeng really wanted to give himself a slap, and begged: "Young Madam, the young one can't speak, and you will be upset if you offend Young Madam, so you should hit the small one. Go pick up the third master."
It's not easy to get away, Yu Zhi doesn't believe a word of this. Who is Wen Jiuxiao? If he wanted to leave, he would just walk away, and his father wouldn't give him any face. A small Ma family is not worthy of his fear, and it is impossible to talk about whether to get away or not.
Let her pick it up? What the **** is Wen Jiuxiao doing?
Yu Zhi's eyes flickered, no matter what, let's go and see the excitement.
Just as she was about to lift her foot, she changed her mind and said, "Wait outside." She turned and went back to the dormitory.
When Yu Zhi appeared again, Qingfeng saw that she was dressed in men's clothing and held a fan in her hand. She looked suave and suave, "Let's go." Her voice changed.
Qingfeng was dumbfounded, opened his mouth, and finally said nothing.
The third master asked the young lady to pick him up, and he didn't say he was wearing men's and women's clothes. Even if he wore men's clothes, wouldn't he still be the young lady?
Arrived at Ma's house, because there was a breeze, although Yu Zhi was grumpy, no one stopped him, and the two went straight into the banquet hall.
Hearing the sound of the piano from a long distance, Yu Zhi glanced at Qingfeng, Qingfeng shrank his shoulders, trying to reduce his sense of existence.
As soon as he entered the hall, Yu Zhi saw a girl in a gauze dress holding a wine glass to toast Wen Jiuxiao, her little face immediately pulled down, "Hey, my lord is very lucky! I said why is my lord not in the yamen? Let me come here to have fun. Are you still a good brother? If there is such a good thing, don’t take me with you.”
