Chapter 75 The Vicious Stepmother of the Republic of China (10)
Gu Qingcheng's eyes were encouraging, "Say it!"
She is so warm-hearted, but Ma DaDa is not so straightforward.
He didn't answer but asked, "Do you know what my name is?"
Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, she really didn't know.
Neither the original owner's memory nor the gossip he overheard while eating in the hotel mentioned Commander Ma's name.
However, seeing the embarrassment and embarrassment written all over Ma's bold and dark face, Gu Qingcheng guessed that Commander Ma's name must not be very pleasant.
It should be a nickname similar to Gou Sheng or Wild Boar.
This is not just "people with cheap names are easy to make a living", but as the people at the lowest level, they are illiterate and cannot come up with any good names with meaning.
Gu Qingcheng said apologetically, "I haven't asked Commander Ma's name yet, I'm rude!"
Ma Bingdao increasingly felt that Gu Qingcheng was literate——
Tsk tsk, listen to what people said, they didn’t say they didn’t know, they said they were rude!
Oops, it’s the same sentence, why do they say it so beautifully and so elegantly?
"My name is Ma DaDa!"
After saying his name, Ma's bold and dark face turned red.
He scratched his head again in embarrassment, "What, I don't have any other strengths, I just have courage!"
When fighting, he dares to rush forward.
When he went to the battlefield for the first time, other recruits were so frightened that they trembled, but he dared to hold up a big blade and kill with all his strength.
Strangely enough, the recruits hiding behind were either injured or simply dead.
And he, rushing to the front, always survives.
At that time, his friends still laughed at him, "You idiot, how can you be so brave?"
Someone else described him this way, "Yes, he is this guy, a stupid and bold guy!"
Stupid and bold, silly and bold.
Gradually, he, a person without a name, began to have a "nickname" - Ma DaDa.
Later, his brothers who were soldiers together with him died and fled, leaving him alone.
He saved the warlord and was promoted along the way.
Perhaps because he was promoted too quickly, many people would politely call him "Commander Ma" in front of others, but behind his back they would despise him and call him "silly and bold".
I am bold and bachelor, but you are afraid of me, despise me, look down on me, and deliberately use nicknames to make fun of me.
I'm not afraid, I even call myself "horse bold".
Congested, Ma DaDa did not ask anyone to help him change his name after he became successful.
Over the years, Ma DaDa became calm and mature, no longer as competitive as when he was young.
He began to think that he might as well change his name.
I am now the commander!
He treats his subordinates well, they don't dare to call him by his first name.
When going out to socialize, if you meet other warlords or foreigners, others will help make introductions——
"This is Commander Ma DaDaMa!"
When those people heard his name, their eyes were filled with astonishment, surprise, and even suppressed laughter.
Ma DaDa:... Damn! Why do I call you DaDa? Is it so ridiculous!
But those people were not the ones he could lose his temper at will.
Not only could he not care about it, he even pretended to be stupid and ridiculed himself, "Hey, I don't have any other strengths, I'm just brave!"
To be honest, Ma DaDa feels an inexplicable sense of humiliation every time he laughs at his own name.
change!
It must be changed!
He wanted to change his name to something nice and sophisticated.
However, Ma DaDa did not believe the scholars who were attached to him.
He always felt that although these people were respectful on the surface, they actually looked down on him from the bottom of their hearts.
Ma DaDa was worried that these people would take advantage of their culture and take advantage of the opportunity to deliberately humiliate him.
He is illiterate and doesn't understand good or bad. If he treats rags as treasures, wouldn't he become a laughing stock?
On the other hand, the Gu family in front of me has a great culture, but he doesn't look down on others.
Moreover, Ma DaDa knew that this woman was very smart and she would definitely not be stupid.
"Are you brave? This is a great advantage."
"To be a military general, one must be brave and not afraid of death, and must be resolute and courageous."
"Bold, dare!"
"In ancient times, there was a general named with the word 'dare'."
"He is the son of the flying general Li Guang. There are poets who write poems for him and praise him for his bravery!"
Gu Qingcheng talked a lot.
The more Ma Daring listened, the brighter his eyes became, "Dare? Yes, others don't dare, but I dare!"
"Haha, this is a good name! From now on, I will be called Ma Gan."
Gu Qingcheng: ...Well, it's a good name, but with the surname Ma, it's easy for people to give it a nickname.
However, it doesn't matter. If someone really wants to make a fuss about his name, no matter what his last name or his name, people can find loopholes.
"Courage, courage, these words are very suitable for a general."
Gu Qingcheng thought for a while and gave an alternative.
When Ma boldly said the word "Ma dare", his heart skipped a beat.
Ma Gan, the meaning is quite good.
However, the homophone is "Ma Gan'er".
How can a tall and thick man like him be called Ma Gan'er?
Oops, what’s wrong with my surname? Do I have to have a surname of “Ma”?
Ma DaBang seemed to have forgotten that during the day, when he was listening to Gu Qingcheng's nonsense about Fubo General Ma Yuan, he was still happy that he had such an awesome ancestor.
Just when Ma DaDa was struggling, Gu Qingcheng said the word "brave" again.
Ma DaDang recited silently in his heart: Ma Yong! Well, at least no one will think of Ma Ganer!
Brave, that’s pretty good too.
"He champions the three armies bravely! When people in the world praise a general for his bravery, they always praise him with the word 'brave'."
Gu Qingcheng saw that Ma DaBang was hesitant, so he threw out another idiom.
"Champion the three armies bravely? Haha, okay! That's the word for bravery."
Yes, his horse is bold, oh no, he will be Ma Yong from now on.
His majestic bravery will defeat the generals of the three armies!
"Oh, he is a cultural person after all, so he is so particular about choosing a name."
Ma Yong got a new name, which seemed to have a meaningful meaning, and he was in a good mood.
The look he looked at Qingcheng became more and more intense.
She is so smart, so well-versed in writing, and so clever. She is really a good woman.
"As long as the general likes it!"
Gu Qingcheng didn't seem to notice Ma Yong's gaze, and she looked embarrassed again.
"Are you having trouble again? Haha, just say it! This commander will help you make the decision!"
Ma Yong looked at Gu Qingcheng favorably, and his attitude was naturally good.
"It's presumptuous to say so. General, can you lend me some soldiers?"
Gu Qingcheng deliberately praised Ma Yong just to ask him for help.
"Borrowing someone?"
"Thanks to the general's care, Li Jiye and I divorced, and the property belonging to my son was also divided."
"Both my son and I are helpless women and children, but we hold such a large estate, which will inevitably attract bad people to covet us."
"There's also Li Jiye. He got a lawsuit because of me, and he has some resentment in his heart."
Whether it's a gangster, a thieves, or a resentful ex-husband who covets wealth, it is not safe for Gu Qingcheng and her children.
While at the inn, Gu Qingcheng was thinking about whether to hire a few people to act as bodyguards.
These days there are also bodyguards, and people from martial arts schools can also be hired.
However, even if you spend money to hire someone, you still have to worry about the problem of "leading the wolf into the house".
Weakness is the original sin.
The rich and the weak will add more sin to their sins.
Laws, morals, etc. are not worth mentioning at all in the face of money and greed.
Gu Qingcheng thought about it and decided to find a backer.
Ma DaDa, oh no, I should call him Ma Yong now. This person is a good choice.
"Well, your worries are justified!"
Ma Yong listened to Gu Qingcheng's words and nodded slowly.
To be honest, even Ma Yong wouldn't want to let such a fat sheep go if he didn't admire the Gu family very much and had other thoughts.
Although Gu "donated" two-thirds of the property to Ma Yong after receiving the property, he only kept one-third for himself.
But even one-third is still worth hundreds of dollars.
A few hundred yuan was enough for him to buy a few more rods and pay several hundred more soldiers.
And the Zhouzhi County magistrate is also not a good person.
He talks a lot about benevolence and morality, but in fact he is full of bad things.
Ma Yongyong made a bet that if Gu didn't quickly find a backer, or leave the county directly.
Within a few days, she would be "in a lawsuit" and end up losing both her personal and financial resources.
"What are your plans? Continue to live in the county?"
Ma Yong concealed his thoughts and asked this question deliberately.
"Unsatisfied General, I am ready to leave!"
Gu Qingcheng looked into Ma Yong's eyes and said slowly, "I want to sell all those properties, and then take my son to the provincial capital or to the devil's capital!"
In troubled times, it is safer to go to big cities.
"I estimated the time and it will take about half a month to handle these."
Therefore, even if she wants to borrow money from someone, it will only be for a few days, so that she won't bother them all the time.
"It's good to leave the county town! The provincial capital is good! The base camp of our troops is in the provincial capital."
A flash of surprise flashed in Ma Yong's eyes.
Hey, you really come up with whatever you want.
He is not a general stationed in the county town. He came to the county town this time just to raise military pay.
Now, I have all the money and food, and I have overfulfilled the task.
It's time for him to return to the provincial capital with his troops.
"Well, it just so happens that the properties in my hands are also about to be sold, so I will help you sell them as well."
Ma Yong had his thoughts in mind and naturally had to work hard to express himself.
He laughed: "For the same property, I can always sell it for a few more bucks because of my status as commander."
Not only does it cost a little more to sell, it's like being able to "rob" it again.
Gu Qingcheng knew the trick and quickly thanked him, "Thank you, general, thank you, general!"
"Oh, you're so polite! Just think of it as a thank you gift for helping me pick a name."
"Also, if you go to the provincial capital in the future, you can also come to me."
"Although I am not a good person, I am still very generous to those who are willing to help."
Ma Yong's last sentence is full of implications.
Gu Qingcheng: ...coincidentally, I am not a good person either! Whatever I do, I must pay attention to one benefit!
As for Ma Yong, for now, he is still very much in line with her interests.
"Thank you General, I understand!"
They are all smart people, so there is no need to speak too clearly.
Ma Yong glanced at Gu Qingcheng's pig-headed face. Although he was a little regretful, he was more determined...
