Starting boy Ma Kongqun

Chapter 144 Be honest, Gongsun

Ma Kongqun frowned and looked at the two children.

The two children were obviously well taken care of, washed and neatly dressed.

The boy was seven or eight years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a simple and honest face.

The girl looks a year or two younger, but with bright eyes, white teeth, pink face and peach blossoms, she is actually a perfect little beauty.

"Are you homeless, or do you have difficulties that prevent you from going home?"

Hearing Ma Kongqun's question, the two children looked at each other and then came back together in front of him.

The boy said with a bitter face: "Reply to the uncle, my family is poor, and I already have three brothers. My parents can't afford to support me, so they sold me to those people. I wanted to be a slave, a servant, or a cow or a horse." , I can always make a living and earn a living. Now even if my uncle sends me home, I still have no means of living, so I’m brave enough to ask if you can take me in? I’m very hard-working and can do anything!”

Ma Kongqun saw that he looked honest and responsible, but when he spoke, he spoke fluently and thought clearly. It is true that some people cannot be judged by their appearance, but he was somewhat interested and asked casually: "What is your name?"

The boy answered honestly: "My surname is Bu, which means 'Bu' from 'cloth'. When I was born, my parents hoped that I would be an honest person in the future, so they named me 'Honshi'."

After Ma Kongqun asked, he picked up the tea cup on the table, put the tea in his mouth, and suddenly heard the name, and immediately sprayed a sip of tea in front of him.

The corner of Xiao Bielie's mouth also twitched. Although he had heard this name before, but now that he heard it again, he still couldn't help but laugh.

The girl really laughed out loud, but then she quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, and quietly observed Ma Kongqun with her two dark eyes, as if to see if he was angry.

Ma Kongqun was so rude not only because of the child's weird name, but also because "Honshi" thought of the other "Honshi". He also guessed that the chance that the two "Honshi" were the same person was really not small. If that was the case, the child would still be True to his name, he is a guy named "Hondo" but actually "Bu LaoShi".

He straightened his expression, put down the tea cup and asked: "Listening to you talking, it seems that you have read some books?"

Bu Laoshi still looked honest and replied seriously: "Uncle Mingjian, when I used to help others herd cattle, I often went outside the private school to eavesdrop on my husband's lectures. In the past two years, I managed to memorize a few books and learned a few things. Character."

Ma Kongqun was immediately impressed by this boy. He could achieve this step with his character, perseverance, and intelligence. No wonder he would achieve such success in the future.

"Since this boy is called 'honest', I wonder if the girl will have any surprises?"

With this thought flashing through his mind, he stopped talking about how to place Bu Laochuang, turned to look at the girl who was still covering her mouth and looking at him furtively, and asked in a slow tone: "What's your name? Why don't you go home?"

When she saw herself being asked, the girl immediately put down her hand, with a timid look on her face, and replied softly: "My name is Lan'er, and I don't have a family."

Ma Kongqun didn't get the point, so he asked patiently: "What's your last name? Where did you live before?"

Lan'er said weakly: "I have been in the 'Qichun Building' in Yangzhou since I can remember. I vaguely heard that my mother was a girl in the building, and later she got sick and died. I don't know who my father is, and there is only one mother. Her stage name is 'Gongsun Wan'er'. If we were to give her a surname, she should probably follow her mother's surname of 'Gongsun'."

"Gongsun Lan", after hearing this unexpected and reasonable name, Ma Kongqun, who had been mentally prepared, finally stopped losing his temper and asked the obvious question why Gongsun Lan didn't want to go home. , and from the girl's life experience and her future life, she guessed that she was by no means as harmless as she seemed to be. His eyes stayed on the two children for a moment.

Extraordinary children are still children after all. Under Ma Kongqun's eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, both children were unable to maintain the masks of one being honest and the other timid, and their expressions gradually became a little stiff.

Ma Kongqun shook his head with a smile and said slowly: "It's not impossible for you to stay, but scheming is used to deal with outsiders. It's best to be sincere in front of your own people. If you always wear a mask, Showing it to others will make you too tired. I believe you can understand these words and think about it for yourself!"

Bu Laoshi and Gongsun Lan didn't know whether they had figured it out or they didn't dare to show off their subtlety in front of Ma Kongqun. They both showed a maturity that was not commensurate with their age on their faces, and they replied in a dignified manner:

"Honestly remember your uncle's teachings."

"Lan'er understands."

Seeing that they had listened to his words, Ma Kongqun nodded with satisfaction, then called someone outside and told him to take the two children out to settle down.

When someone came to take away the two children, Xiao Bielie smiled and asked: "These two little guys are not ordinary, but at this age, they are smarter than many adults. I wonder how the hall master plans to arrange them?"

Ma Kongqun said: "You should first investigate the background of the two of them. If there is no problem, I plan to arrange for Gongsun Lan to be with his wife, and Bu Laoshi will be with me. If he is worthy of his education, both my wife and I will not mind accepting him. disciple."

Xiao Biele was very surprised by this.

Although he saw the extraordinary qualities of the two children, and brought them back to the "Ten Thousand Horses Hall" this time with the intention of cherishing their talents, he did not expect that the master of his own hall would value them so much.

Ma Kongqun explained with a smile: "I can get to where I am today because of your efforts. In the future, the two children Hongxue and Qingfeng will also need helpers. If they can be cultivated from an early age, how reliable they will be." It has to be higher.”

Xiao Biere didn't expect that he was so far-sighted and started planning for his adopted son and his son's affairs after he grew up and established a career. Apart from "admiration", he couldn't think of anything else to say.

In this way, the two children Bu Laoshi and Gongsun Lan stayed in the "Ten Thousand Horses Hall".

A few days later, Xiao sent the "Xuanbu" investigation results, which proved that there was nothing false about their respective life experiences.

So Ma Kongqun first brought Gongsun Lan to Wang Qiong.

Wang Qiong had already heard about this girl's life experience, and felt quite a bit of pity for her. After three months of inspection, he found that her aptitude and temperament were of the best, so she reported that she had begun to practice "Celestial Silkworm". Rui Xuan, the master of the "Moon-shaped Sect", officially took her under his disciple and began to teach her the introductory skills of the "Moon-shaped Sect".

Bu Laoshi followed Ma Kongqun as a boy servant for a year.

Ma Kongqun actually used some methods to polish this boy who seemed to be honest but was not honest at all, and finally made him feel grateful for his kindness and deeply afraid of his power, so he settled on the master-disciple relationship with him.
