【1319】Widow's right and wrong in front of the door (5)
Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan came to Chen Xiaoxiao again and told Niu San's request to meet her. Chen Xiaoxiao initially refused to agree, but unable to withstand Ma Xiaoquan's complaints, she agreed. Another...
Chen Xiaoxiao gave Ma Xiaoquan a letter...
Niu San said hey: "Hu Hansan, don't you see that you are quite affectionate?"
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Hey, I have been studying for two years, so I must be a little persistent, right?"
"Okay, then I'll take this leave for you, but the wages will be gone."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay. I just don't give up and will try."
"Okay, that's fine. Now, if you're not here for me to meet Chen Xiaoxiao, is that okay? Or should I wait for you to come back?"
Ma Xiaoquan said: "I can't do anything when I come back. Brother Niu San, to be honest, I mainly talked to her maid. The maid sent a message to say that she agreed. I think it would be the same with or without me."
, Oh, by the way, my maid also sent a message, saying that if she wants to see you, she will send someone to notify you in advance."
"Well, that's good, that's good." Niu San nodded with satisfaction.
The next day, Niu San took the initiative to ask for leave for Ma Xiaoquan.
Generally, if a helper asks for leave, it is equivalent to quitting the job. You can wait for them to come back and resume work at any time.
Although Ma Xiaoquan was a little dissatisfied, this was still the Ming Dynasty and a feudal society, and there was no labor law.
After figuring this out, Ma Xiaoquan didn't hesitate. He went to Beijing under the guise of asking for leave, but in fact he wanted to change his identity as Ma San.
These days, Hua Yue has been helping to handle the salt transportation affairs. Although everything is well organized, Hua Yue has sent letters many times saying that she is lonely and scared.
Ma Xiaoquan knew that Hua Yue did not lie. Even though she was a powerful martial artist, she was still a woman.
Ma Xiaoquan pretended to walk around Caobang, allowing many people to see him. Then he said in a subtle way that he was going to Beijing to find a woman, and then left Caobang.
The flow of people in Caogang is very large, and there are a lot of "temporary workers". Ma Xiaoquan's departure did not attract everyone's attention. On the contrary, his temporary departure made some people extremely happy. The reason is very simple, because Ma Xiaoquan saw
He passed Chen Xiaoxiao, so to some extent, he became the common "love rival" of the bachelors.
...
At night, Ma Xiaoquan changed his clothes and sneaked back to the steward's mansion.
Ever since Hua Yue temporarily took charge of the salt transportation affairs, the guards at the steward's residence have become increasingly tight. Anyone with a discerning eye can't see anything strange, but Ma Xiaoquan knows that those guards are actually from her Huahua family.
When he reached the door of the steward's residence, Ma Xiaoquan was stopped by two big men.
"Stop, what are you doing? This is the housekeeper's residence, no one can enter!"
Ma Xiaoquan raised his head, smiled slightly and said, "Why, you don't even recognize me anymore?"
The two big men took a look by the torch light, were stunned for a moment, and then respectfully said: "Sir"
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "Okay, open the door."
"yes"
Ma Xiaoquan walked into the steward's mansion with his hands behind his back and murmured in surprise: "The furnishings in the mansion have changed a lot. Well, Yue'er is indeed Yue'er."
Just as he was talking, a familiar soft voice came from behind Ma Xiao: "You are finally willing to come back..."
Ma Xiaoquan scratched his head in embarrassment and turned around. Before he could react, Hua Yue had already thrown herself into his arms. Without saying anything, she buried her head in his chest.
Ma Xiaoquan raised his hand and carefully stroked Hua Yue's hair.
"I've worked hard on you these days," Ma Xiaoquan said guiltily.
"Yeah" Hua Yue didn't look up, just hummed softly.
"I'm back, but I have to continue to lurk for a few days," Ma Xiaoquan whispered.
Hua Yue raised her head and said with a flat mouth: "Can't you finish it quickly..."
Ma Xiaoquan said sheepishly: "This... is a bit troublesome..."
"Hmph" Hua Yue pushed Ma Xiaoquan away and said with a pout, "I knew you must have hooked up with the most beautiful little widow."
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned: "How did you know? Oh no, how did you know that I met Chen Xiaoxiao?"
"Humph, did you let it slip? I knew it. No wonder Miss Qingxue told me to take good care of you. Ma Xiaoquan, you are not an idle person..."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hands anxiously and said: "No, no, I really have nothing to do with you, really."
"Really?" Hua Yue looked at Ma Xiaoquan with a look of distrust, "Then just stand still and let me search for any evidence of your crime?"
"This..." Ma Xiaoquan said helplessly, "Sister Yue'er, aren't you afraid that men and women will not be intimate with each other?"
Hua Yue's pretty face turned red and she cursed: "Hundan, can't I have someone search you?"
"Uh, okay." Ma Xiaoquan nodded, stood still and stretched out his hands.
"You, come here." Hua Yue waved and called a servant of the family over.
"Miss, please give me your instructions?"
Hua Yue pointed at Ma Xiaoquan and said, "Go and search his whole body carefully."
The servant of the family raised his head and glanced at Ma Xiaoquan, wondering: "Miss, Mr. Ma is a close friend of our Hua family. He has a distinguished status, so I don't dare!"
"If you don't dare, just go ahead. If he doesn't agree today, there is something wrong in his heart!"
Ma Xiaoquan sighed and said: "Brother, come and search, don't be afraid, I don't eat people, your eldest lady, and I don't eat people either."
"This...that's good, Mr. Ma, my subordinate has been offended."
Ma Xiaoquan nodded, stood up straight, and allowed the servants to search his whole body.
Although we are all men, it is inevitable that we will touch sensitive parts during the body search, but there is still a bit of embarrassment. Of course, this embarrassment only affects Ma Xiaoquan.
"Miss, I searched and found nothing."
"Huh? No?" Hua Yue frowned, "No, search again."
Ma Xiaoquan couldn't help it anymore and said quickly: "Okay, okay, I said, I said it's not okay, Chen Xiaoxiao gave me a letter, I haven't read it yet."
"Hmph, Ma Xiaoquan, you are so dishonest. Bring me the letter."
Ma Xiaoquan curled his lips, took off his shoes, and pulled out a letter from the sole.
Hua Yue frowned, covered her nose and said, "It stinks so much, why did you put the letter in your shoe?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said, "Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
"Really, go, there are spices in my room, take some and sprinkle them before giving them to me."
"Hey, okay, okay, whatever you say will be done." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head helplessly and walked into Hua Yue's bedroom.
Opening Chen Xiaoxiao's letter, Ma Xiaoquan was snatched away by Hua Yue before Ma Xiaoquan could spread the spices.
“I haven’t sprinkled the spices yet.”
Hua Yue still covered her nose: "Hmph, who knows what kind of tricks you have, let me see what is written first."
Ma Xiaoquan shrugged and said he was welcome.
Hua Yue quickly browsed the letter written by Chen Xiaoxiao to Ma Xiaoquan, and then, the hand covering her nose suddenly and slowly lowered her hand.
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "Why, it doesn't stink anymore?"
Hua Yue raised her head and looked at Ma Xiaoquan with a strange look.
"What's wrong? Are there flowers on my face?" Ma Xiaoquan subconsciously touched his face and asked.
Hua Yue smiled coldly and threw the letter to Ma Xiaoquan: "I'm just saying, you bad guy, huh, Chen Xiaoxiao, I'll go meet her first."
Ma Xiaoquan straightened the letter and read it for himself. He suddenly realized and said with an innocent face: "What do I mean? I just made an appointment to meet. Yue'er, aren't you too sensitive?"
"Huh, sensitive? Do you think I don't know your little thoughts, and the song "Looking at the Spring Breeze" you sang? Do you know how many times Fang Yun's sister has looked for you in the past few days when you were away? Huh
, just because you sang some bullshit "Wang Chunfeng"
Ma Xiaoquan cried out in his heart that he was wronged. First of all, the song "Looking at the Spring Breeze" was not written by him, and he was a plagiarist. Secondly, although he sang it, he did not flirt with Fang Yun's sister. Why did she become interested in him?
Is he, Ma Xiaoquan, wrong?
"Yue'er, I think... just don't go. I'll just go make an appointment with Chen Xiaoxiao tomorrow."
"No, Yanyun is so busy with affairs. You stay here tomorrow and handle the affairs properly. I'll go meet Chen Xiaoxiao."
"I..." Ma Xiaoquan originally wanted to argue, but seeing Hua Yue's sullen face and serious expression, he had no choice but to bow his head and admit defeat.
The next day, Hua Yue went to find Chen Xiaoxiao and did not say hello to Ma Xiaoquan yet.
Ma Xiaoquan had been waiting since the morning. While handling the salt transportation paperwork, he was waiting for Hua Yue. By noon, Hua Yue had not returned.
Ma Xiaoquan was a little anxious: "Here comes someone."
"My lord, what are your orders?"
"Well, go and find your eldest lady. It's lunch time, why aren't you back?"
"Miss? Sir, the eldest lady said when she went out this morning that she wouldn't let us look for her."
"Why? You are from the Hua family, don't you care about the safety of your master?"
"No, no, sir, the eldest lady has made special arrangements, saying that if any of us dare to go, we will chop off our hands and feet when we come back."
"Holy shit, is it so serious?"
"Well, yes, so we don't dare to look for it. Sir, I think it's better for you to go in person? If you go in person, the eldest lady will not chop off your hands and feet."
Ma Xiaoquan sighed: "Okay, I think I really have to go in person."
After saying that, Ma Xiaoquan stood up and cleared away the documents on the desk.
At this moment, Hua Yue suddenly came in. Seeing Ma Xiaoquan cleaning up, he asked, "What are you doing?"
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment, stopped and looked up, then pursed his lips and said, "You're back. I see you haven't come back at noon. I'm about to go out to look for you."
"Looking for me?" Hua Yue stepped forward and copied a document that Ma Xiaoquan had annotated, "I did it quite seriously, um, but you are looking for me? No, you are probably trying to find Chen Xiaoxiao, right?"
