Chapter 71 Wheelchair
Qin Liu's eyes were also red, and she cursed: "Ma Yue, get up! There is gold under the man's knees, and he will kneel to his parents in heaven and earth. Don't let me look down on you!"

Ma Yue cried loudly and said: "Sister-in-law Li is my benefactor. I will neither kneel to heaven nor to kneel to earth, so I will kneel to you!"

"If you want to shorten my life, just keep kneeling!"

Ma Yue wiped his face with his sleeves, then stood up. He stood upright and looked forward, with determination in his red eyes.

Qin Liu nodded secretly.

When Ma Yue's mind was confused and shaken, he was able to rein in the situation in time and became more confident. He is a rare good boy.

She looked at Sister Ma Feng.

Sister Ma Feng was very unconvinced. She shouted: "You all think she is good, do you know? She has a lover in Xuanfu! The carriage that sent her back was so grand! Her new clothes don't cost 100 taels of silver. Can’t get off!”

Old Man Li, who had been silent all this time, coughed heavily, and his hoarse voice was filled with anger: "Our daughter-in-law of the Li family is innocent, no one can throw dirty water on her! Nephew Mada, your sister is talking nonsense , it’s time for discipline!”

Although Old Man Li is disabled, he is the head of the Li family, and Qin Liu and Ma Ang have always respected him. This is a very serious statement.

Ma Ang's face was ashen: "Sister Feng, if you talk nonsense again, I will marry you to the mountains!"

Sister Feng was so frightened that her face turned pale, and her voice was filled with tears: "Brother?! Are you my biological brother? No one in the mountains lives long, they are poor and don't have enough to eat. Are you cursing me to die early? I Is she still your sister? Mom, look at how partial my brother is!"

Aunt Ma had already come to her senses at this time. She gave Sister Ma Feng a cold look and said in a harsh tone: "I agree with what your brother said!"

Ma Auntie said to Qin Liu guiltily: "Daughter, it's our Ma family who are ignorant. It's because I'm not good at teaching my son, and I taught these bastards! As Ma Ang said, this inn is yours, and we all Come out and continue to open the Ma Li Dumpling Shop. Let’s split the money [-]-[-], eh? Look at my old face, don’t be angry anymore, okay?”

Sister Ma Feng lowered her head unconvinced.

Qin Liu helped Aunt Ma sit down again, and then returned to his seat: "Since everyone doesn't agree with my plan, let's forget it for now. My store can't do without Ma Yue, so I'll continue to work according to the original shares." Go down."

Ma Ang said categorically: "No, you can't always take advantage of Sister-in-law Li!"

Ma Yue also said: "I don't want shares!"

Qin Liu said seriously: "That can't be done! I don't have that much time to take care of the inn. Ma Yue has done a good job. I don't have a suitable candidate without him."

Ma Yue was stunned: "Then let Zhao San'er take care of the accounts. Let him remember every money in and out, so that you won't have to explain it clearly later."

Qin Liu naturally agreed.

Ma Ang stood up and announced the end of the meeting, and everyone went back to their homes. He carried Old Man Li onto the wheelchair, personally demonstrated how to use the wheelchair, and then pushed Old Man Li back to the west room of the Li family in the wheelchair.

Qin Liu looked at the seats and backrests woven with rattan, the frames and wheels made of fine tung, and the exquisite patterns, and his forehead twitched.

This wheelchair is an extraordinary product at first glance. It must have cost a lot of money to make. Even 100 taels of silver may not be enough to get it.

Qin Liu sent Ma Ang to the yard, and the little mute had already taken the two children to the west room.

She said awkwardly: "Brother Ma, how much does this wheelchair cost? I'll pay you..."

Ma Ang looked at the window of the west room of the Li family with complicated eyes. The lights inside were on, and the figures of the little mute and the big man Erlang were printed on the window: "I didn't spend any money, Master Zhu gave it to me."

"Ah? You mean Zhu Yue?"

Ma Ang turned his attention to Qin Liu and said in a low voice, "Yes."

"How did he know that I wanted to buy a wheelchair?" "I took the money to the store in Xuanfu to pick it up. Someone took me to the Baoguo Gongfu Courtyard, and Mr. Zhu asked someone to give me this wheelchair."

Qin Liu shrugged and said calmly.

Ma Ang couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.

Qin Liu's eyes flashed: "Brother Ma, please go to bed early."

Qin Liu was not surprised that Zhu Yue gave her the entire wheelchair.

To be honest, Zhu Yue gave her 1000 taels of silver last time, and she felt that she was justified in taking it.

She negotiated a large order of [-] horses for the imperial court. There was no middleman in the direct transaction. Her own agency fee was too low!

The cost price of ten thousand horses is 20 taels of silver. The intermediary who arranges the transaction charges an intermediary fee of 5 points, which is also 1 taels of silver.

Even a one percent agency fee is 2000 taels of silver.

Zhu Yue only gave her 1000 taels, which was still too stingy.

Seeing that the transaction was not completed yet, she endured it.

Coupled with the last communication with Zhu Yue, she even felt that Zhu Yue would do many things for her. What did a wheelchair mean?
Ma Ang walked back to the west wing of Ma's house with heavy steps.

He lay on the kang without washing, staring blankly at the ceiling.What happened in Xuanfu two days ago came to mind again.

He was led to a study room in the annex of Duke Baoguo's Mansion. There were especially many people waiting in line in front of the study room, and they all lined up in a long queue.

After waiting for a while at the end of the queue, he heard the names "Sir Commander-in-Chief", "Sir Wen" and "Eunuch Chen" being called.

What they said was even more horrifying: "Master Wen is the left minister of the Ministry of War and the left deputy censor of the capital. Why do you come to wait in front of this fifth-rank military general general in a low voice?"

"Hmph, Mr. Bai knows this well, so why bother to ridicule me? Eunuch Chen, you have been guarding Xuanfu for several years. You and Mr. Bai are old partners. We often see him come to pay homage to a young man from the fifth rank like this. General?"

"Hmph, our family doesn't know that we are worshiping a young general from the fifth rank. We only know that the emperor is now fully focused on Xuan Mansion. This Lord Zhu was the emperor's former companion. Although his official position is small, he has great power. …”

Ma Ang was frightened.

In other words, the three top military officials of the Xuanfu are waiting for Master Zhu to receive him!

Ma Ang waited for a while, and several people came out of the study. Mr. Bai raised his hands and smiled and said, "Eunuch Liang, if you are not ordered to guard Datong, why are you here in our Xuan Mansion?"

The man named Eunuch Liang sighed and said: "Datong has been attacked by the Tatars again and again. The soldiers lack horses and cannot fight against the Tatar soldiers. We have to come! Mr. Bai, please don't argue with me. This time the horses are We have to stick to our Datong first!"

General Bai laughed and laughed: "It's difficult for Datong, and it's difficult for us in Xuanfu. See you later, see you later!"

Someone came to lead Ma Ang in, and the discussion behind the scenes by Chief Bai and others also reached Ma Ang's ears: "Why is a small family of a thousand people still in front of us? Can Mr. Zhu distinguish the priorities?"

"I heard that Mr. Zhu is as good as Long Yang, and I don't know if he has special interests. Let's wait a little longer!"

Ma Ang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. When he entered the house, he saw Master Zhu feeding the fish leisurely in front of a fish tank.
