After saying this, she once again warned Liu Zhimo in a small voice, telling him not to eat so much venison, as it would be easy for him to get angry.
Liu Zhimo acknowledged, then stood up impatiently and pulled Li Qingling to eat.
At the Ma family, when Magistrate Ma returned home, he saw a big plate of meat on the table. A few children sat on the chairs and stared at the meat, drool almost flowing out of their mouths.
Seeing that Magistrate Ma had returned, the few children obediently called him father. Then, they shouted at him, saying that he was back, and that it was time to eat.
Hu Juanjuan acknowledged, and immediately brought the vegetables and food out from the kitchen.
"Why are you thinking of buying meat today?" Magistrate Ma glanced at Hu Juanjuan and asked in astonishment. Didn't you eat meat half a month ago? Why did she buy it again?
The family had many children, but they were not rich either. Eating meat once a month could be considered luxurious, not to mention eating meat once a month.
After Hu Juanjuan gave the food to Magistrate Ma and the others, he sat down and said that she did not buy it, but Magistrate's Wife gave it to him.
Magistrate Ma raised his head and looked at Hu Juanjuan, frowning as he asked her, why are you looking for Magistrate's Wife?
If Director He found out about this, wouldn't she be letting him wear it?
Hadn't Madame always been very careful? Why was he so impulsive this time?
Hu Juanjuan rolled her eyes at Magistrate Ma, and said calmly: "Magistrate's Wife is here, of course I have to go see him, if not, he would think you are so arrogant, and would disdain to go see him." If one wanted to get a good family, they must definitely establish a good relations.h.i.+p with Magistrate's Wife and the others, and must not leave a bad impression.
"You … What did you take to see Magistrate's Wife? "
"It's a dish from home."
"..." The corner of Magistrate Ma's eyes twitched, and his brows furrowed even more tightly, "You just gave us some vegetables that we grew at home, and nothing else?"
Hu Juanjuan acknowledged them, and did not take Magistrate Ma's worries seriously. She served more dishes to the children, telling them to hurry up and eat.
Her family was poor as a bucket, what could she take out to give Magistrate's Wife? What's more, what kind of good thing had Magistrate's Wife not seen before? On the contrary, she felt that these normal vegetables and fruits would be even more liked by Magistrate's Wife.
Hearing that, Magistrate Ma almost lost the bowl in his hands, he took a deep breath and asked her, how did Magistrate's Wife react?
He felt that his wife's temper was too straightforward and that it was easy for her to offend others.
"Magistrate's Wife likes it very much. He also wants me to bring some vegetable seed to her tomorrow. She's going to open up some fields in the garden at home to grow vegetables."
"Are you for real?" Magistrate Ma looked at Hu Juanjuan suspiciously. How could Magistrate's Wife personally grow vegetables? For example, Magistrate's Wife who was previously born, was either sick or acted high and mighty, and did not communicate with ordinary people. He bought all the things in his house, and did not grow his own plants.
Hu Juanjuan glared at Magistrate Ma, saying that she had always been accurate in his judgement, how could he have seen wrongly?
"Of course it's true. I feel that the current County Magistrate and Magistrate's Wife wouldn't be like the previous generations. They would do things for the common people."
"Oh? "What do you mean?" It was very rare for his wife to praise someone like this. To be praised by her like this, that new County Magistrate must have some sort of outstanding relations.h.i.+p with her.
Hu Juanjuan slowly recounted what happened today to Magistrate Ma. After she finished speaking, Magistrate Ma raised his eyebrows and asked her, would Lord Liu really go down on his own?
He thought about the n.o.ble aura of the County Magistrate, he really did not believe that he was someone who would go down to the ground.
He even suspected that the County Magistrate did not know of the five grains?
Hu Juanjuan could immediately tell what Magistrate Ma was thinking. She pursed her lips and said, "Magistrate's Wife said that they came from the countryside and that County Magistrate would go down to the ground. Not only will he go down to the ground, he even ordered the children at home to follow him.
While she said that, she gave Magistrate Ma a meaningful glance, and then swept her eyes over the few children that looked like her family.
Magistrate Ma rubbed his nose, and asked Hu Juanjuan. Did she really trust what Magistrate's Wife said?
"Is that true? If you follow County Magistrate, you will definitely confirm this matter. "
"That's … that's …" Magistrate Ma laughed and placed a piece of meat into Hu Juanjuan's bowl, "My wife, eat this meat."
Hu Juanjuan nodded and looked at the few children, telling them not to eat so much meat. That was venison, it was too nouris.h.i.+ng, and was easily angered.
Those few children rarely had a meal of meat, who would listen to Hu Juanjuan's words and eat it first?
When Hu Juanjuan saw it, he was so angry that her eyes were popping out.
These children were so disobedient, it was as if she had deliberately kept them from eating meat, and had been harsh on them.
As a mother, how could her heart be so bad?
Magistrate Ma picked up a piece of venison and chewed it before swallowing it, then said, "Where did Magistrate's Wife go to buy venison? It's pretty tender." After saying that, he ate another piece. As expected, the meat was still delicious. Having to eat steamed buns and vegetables everyday, how could there be any flavor?
His biggest wish in this life was to eat meat everyday. Unfortunately, he didn't know when this wish would come true.
If County Magistrate could let the common people eat their fill and wear their clothes, then this wish of his might even be realized.
"Didn't I just tell you? The County Magistrate's guards hunted the venison on the mountain. Hu Juanjuan also thought that this venison was very tasty, it was all thanks to Magistrate's Wife that he was able to make them eat it, "Why did County Magistrate bring so many guards here? Although our county is far behind, no one will ever do anything evil to the County Magistrate. What are they afraid of? "
Magistrate Ma looked at Hu Juanjuan, and explained to her, "Those guards weren't here to protect the County Magistrate, but to protect Mr. Luo. Mr. Luo, do you know who they are? They were the emperor's teachers, and upon hearing that the emperor respected this Mr. Luo, they sent a team of guards to protect him. " Thinking about Mr. Luo who was renowned throughout the world, his heart burned with pa.s.sion. He wondered if Mr. Luo would still accept disciples, could he teach his family's sons a little?
If his four sons could get some pointers from Mr. Luo, they would definitely be better off than him in the future.
Looking at these sons of his that were half grown, Magistrate Ma felt a headache coming on. As the saying went, a child half grown would eat his father to death, wasn't that the case for his children?
Sighing silently, he looked towards Hu Juanjuan and told him about this matter. He wanted her to test Magistrate's Wife and see if she could teach him about the knowledge of the children in the family.
"Is Mr. Luo really that powerful?"
"Mr. Luo only accepted three disciples in his life. One was the emperor, one was a general, and the other was the father of the County Magistrate. "Even if the current crown prince and the other princes wanted to take Mr. Luo in as their master, he would not accept them. He firmly refused them all."
"Then... Isn't County Magistrate the disciple of Mr. Luo? " Hu Juanjuan took two deep breaths, "Mr. Luo's requirement is so high, will he guide our child?" She snappily glared at her four sons. Other than third son who were studying seriously, there was no need to think about her other three sons.
"Father, if I had received Mr. Luo's guidance, would I have been able to become the top scholar like the County Magistrate?" The third son looked at Magistrate Ma with s.h.i.+ning eyes. Becoming the top scholar was the goal of every scholar.
He also wanted to see the County Magistrate be so powerful.
Magistrate Ma laughed and rubbed his son's head. He might not necessarily say, but if you study hard, you might have a chance of becoming someone as powerful as the County Magistrate.
The County Magistrate was very smart. He knew that his son did not have that kind of brain, but he could not hurt his son. He had to give his son a target in order to continue charging forward.
Ma Da clenched his fists and said that he would try his best.
"Father favors you." Magistrate Ma praised third son a little, then looked at the other three sons, "What about you two? If you have any ideas, you can talk to Daddy about them. " He really didn't expect these three sons of his. All he wanted was for them to not become illiterate, and that would make him 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 said softly that they did not like reading books.
Magistrate Ma frowned and asked them what they wanted to do as they did not like reading books.
The three brothers sneakily glanced at their father. When they saw that their father's face had turned dark, they became even more silent.
Hu Juanjuan sighed, then glared at Magistrate Ma, "Tell me, what do you guys want to do with your books? As long as it's reasonable, Mother will support you. " She also knew that these three children were not the stuff for reading. As parents, they always hoped that their children would have a future.
The eldest son Ma Zhi raised his head and looked at Hu Juanjuan excitedly, and said loudly, I want to become a great general, I want to go kill the enemies.
He felt that the Great General was a very powerful person, and the very thought of him made his blood boil.
"If you want to be a general, you have to study. If you don't study, how are you going to lead soldiers to war?" Magistrate Ma poured a bucket of cold water on his eldest son. If he didn't study, would he have to become an illiterate general?
Hearing that, Ma Zhi stopped eating. He asked Hu Juanjuan, did you also want to study to be a great general?
He thought he could lead his men to war, but he didn't know he had to study as a general.
Hu Juanjuan smiled and asked him, "Do you think the emperor would let someone who can't read their words become a great general? Then how could he arrange a formation and lead troops? "Right?" It wouldn't be a good thing if the eldest son liked reading because of it.
Ma Zhi scratched his head. He felt that what his parents said was reasonable, the Emperor wouldn't allow someone who didn't know how to read to become a general.
If he wanted to be a great general, wouldn't he have to study?
But the moment he saw those words, he felt his head hurt!
