Chapter 77 Going Home

Seeing that Zhu Hongsan received another scholar's help, Tong Yangjia stepped forward and congratulated him: "Congratulations to the lord, Daye, for getting another help."

He said to Ma Jiyuan again: "I will play with Lord Ma in the future."

When Ma Jiyuan saw Tong Yangjia coming, his face darkened and turned his head and said nothing. Ma Jiyuan hated Tong Yangjia very much. He thought that as a scholar, Tong Yangjia was doing all the things that chickens crowed and dogs were robbed, and he was really unpolite.

Zhu Hongsan knew that Ma Jiyuan was upright and good or bad. Otherwise, with his power as a Ma family, he would have been an official in the capital and would not have worked in a broken place in Henan for more than ten years.

Zhu Hongsan saw that Tong Yangjia and Ma Jiyuan were having an unhappy quarrel, but he didn't persuade him. The Ma family now has the majority of scholars under his command, and one of them is not the same faction as them. So he didn't stop Ma Jiyuan from looking at Tong Yangjia's face.

Tong Yangjia originally wanted to curry favor with Ma Jiyuan, but he didn't expect that the hot face would meet a cold butt, and his old face turned red. He quickly said, "Lord, I'll go see how the team is preparing?" After Zhu Hongsan nodded in agreement, Tong Yangjia ran away in panic.

Because the team was too large, they all crossed the Yangtze River until noon at the ferry. After crossing the Yangtze River, they were less than twenty miles away from Wuchang County. When the sun sets west, they finally arrived at Majiazhuang.

At the entrance of Majiazhuang, Zhu Hongsan said goodbye to Ma Jiyuan, but Zhu Hongsan did not go in to visit Ma Guoxiang. Zhu Hongsan is now home, so how can he have time to see that cheap father-in-law? His father-in-law is not his, and Ma Jiyuan is not in front of him.

After dark, I finally arrived at Zhujia Farm and felt very happy when I got home. At the entrance of the farm, I arranged for my subordinates to go home first and rest for three days. I ordered Zhao Guodong and Zhou Yu to lead the team back to the barracks. If I had a wife, I would go to the officer's room first. I used to build a single room for many officers, but it was still empty.

After the arrangement, Zhu Hongsan took Zhu Luo and the Dong family twins home. After entering the house, he saw the eldest wife Ma Xiaofang and the second wife Ma Ruyan standing at the door to greet him. Both of them were erect.

Zhu Hongsan was surprised. He knew that Ma Xiaofang was pregnant. Unexpectedly, Ma Ruyan was pregnant too. Could it be that he was shot by a shot the night before leaving home? The two girls saluted Zhu Hongsan and said, "Welcome to the master to return home."

Zhu Hongsan hurriedly stepped forward and helped the two girls up and said, "The two ladies are exempted from gifts. Why do your family do these stupid things? Don't tired my son."

When Ma Ruyan heard her husband say this, her face turned red and she said, "I was diagnosed with pregnancy one month after the master left, and now she is five months old."

Zhu Hongsan smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Your father and your mother have come back, and a few brothers and nephews have come back. Everything is safe. You are inconvenient. You will go and visit again if you have the chance." Zhu Hongsan did not say that the other women did not come back, for fear of scaring Ma Ruyan, and he would talk slowly if he had the chance in the future.

Zhu Luo slowly came over behind Zhu Hongsan and said, "Mom, I'm back in the second mom."

When Ma Xiaofang saw his daughter, tears burst out from her eyes. She stepped forward and hugged Zhu Luo and said, "You dead child, do you know how much you worry about you for your mother." Zhu Luo originally thought that it was Ma Xiaofang's rage coming back to greet him, but she didn't expect it to be fine.

When he saw his mother crying, Zhu Luo also cried: "I miss my mother too, and I will be a good child when I listen to my mother's words in the future."

Zhu Hongsan saw the mother and daughter crying and advised him, "Okay, we're all safe, don't cry."

Ma Xiaofang stood up and wiped her tears, saying, "It seems that the master has brought new sisters again. Isn't he going to introduce him?"

Zhu Hongsan blushed and said, "Xiaofang, what? What's the matter? I think the Dong sisters are really pitiful. Their father is the eldest brother's teacher. I can't help but I promise their father to take care of them." After that, he said to the Dong sisters behind him, "You won't come forward to pay homage to the eldest and second wife."

Dong Zhen and Dong Huan stepped forward and bowed, "My little girl greets the eldest lady and the second lady." Seeing Ma Xiaofang tall and big, she had big feet, the two sisters curled their lips secretly and said to themselves, "The original wife of the master turned out to be a big-footed woman. It seems that the master married her to get the support of the Ma family. But the second lady is so charming. It seems that the second lady will be our sisters' rival in the future."

Ma Xiaofang didn't let them get up at all. She looked at the two sisters kneeling in front of her and said, "What a pair of sisters. I don't care how much you are favored by the master. When you enter this house, you must understand the rules. If you break the rules and disobey, you must use the family rules. The master can't speak."

Zhu Hongsan smiled embarrassedly from the side: "It's too cold outside, let's go into the house to talk. Did the wife get up with the Dong sisters?"

Ma Xiaofang glared at Zhu Hongsan, then nodded. He called the butler Ma Youfu to go down and arrange the residence of the two sisters of the Dong family. He was about to bring the two into the Zhu family tonight.

Zhu Hongsan held Ma Xiaofang and Ma Ruyan into the main room with his hands. He sat down in the room and said, "How many months will Madam give birth?"

Ma Xiaofang said: "My due date is February next year, and Ruyan's one is in March next year. The peaceful woman in the city has visited her and her fetal position is normal. Don't worry, Master."

Zhu Hongsan said: "I'm not worried about this. This time I went to Henan and saw that the north was already decayed. I will go to your elder brother and second brother to discuss the relocation of our whole family tomorrow."

Ma Xiaofang said, "Are you really going to Guangdong? I wonder if my parents' bodies can withstand it. My mother fell ill last month. After all, they are all over 60."

Zhu Hongsan said, "My mother-in-law is sick? I will visit her tomorrow." Zhu Luo said, "Dad, I will visit my grandmother too."

Ma Xiaofang cursed on the side: "The dead child is going out of the wild as soon as he returns home, and I don't know how to spend time with me at home."

Zhu Luo said: "My father promised me to form a boy camp and let me be the commander. I will become the general in the future."

Seeing the master and his daughter making fun together, Ma Xiaofang said, "Master, you are so doting on Luo Er."

Zhu Hongsan smiled and said, "I have the final say in my daughter. I can be crazy as I want."

At this time, Ma Youfu asked for a meeting outside the door and said that everything was ready and asked the master to go to the bridal chamber.

After watching Zhu Hongsan leave happily, Ma Xiaofang said to Ma Ruyan: "Ruyan, we must give birth to a boy this time, otherwise we will have a hard life in the future in the back house." Ma Ruyan also nodded solemnly.

Zhu Luo said on the side: "Don't worry, mom, you still have a daughter. If those two vixen are disobedient, I will whip them with a whip."

When Ma Xiaofang heard her daughter say this, she smiled and said, "Silly child, if you are old, you will get married when you are old, you will be with your mother forever."

Zhu Luo thought for a while and said, "How about I recruit a son-in-law."

Zhu Luo's words made Ma Xiaofang laugh, and Ma Xiaofang said, "It seems that her daughter is older and she is looking for a son-in-law."

Zhu Luo is now six years old and knows a little about men and women. When he heard his two mothers laugh at him, he blushed and said, "I won't tell you anymore, I'll go back to sleep." After that, he went out to go back to his house.

Watching his daughter go out, Ma Xiaofang thought, "Maybe Zhu Luo is right. I miss you so much in the future. It's better to find someone close to you or just hire a son-in-law."

On this side, Zhu Hongsan went to the back yard and the new house was ready. Since he was taking a concubine, he had nothing to prepare. He just put red candles in the house and the words "Happy" were posted on the door and window. Zhu Hongsan changed into wedding dress and sat in the house, waiting for the Dong sisters to come in.

The sisters of the Dong family first had to sit in a sedan chair and carry it out of the Zhu Mansion, then carry it in from the second door, and carry it into the wedding house. The concubines in the Ming Dynasty had no social status, and the wife did not like to be beaten to death, and some were sent to the master. The children born to the concubine had no legal inheritance rights, and only if the wife had no legitimate son could inherit the family property. However, they also had to be the legitimate mother, and their own mother could only be called the concubine.

Seeing the Dong sisters sitting on the bed, the maid and the mother-in-law went out. Zhu Hongsan stood up and picked up the veil of the two girls, and the wedding was completed.

Zhu Hongsan looked at the Dong sisters, and in fact, their appearance could reach 75 points, which was the level of a first- and second-rate young actor in later generations. He was neither Ma Ruyan's charm nor Ma Xiaofang's heroic appearance. Zhu Hongsan fell in love with them, but he had never played with twins. This was the first time he encountered them, so he naturally could not let them go.

Zhu Hongsan said seriously: "You have seen the situation at home. I don't have any concept of being born in the legitimate family. The whole village is my property. I can't say much about my family business now. I have a million taels of silver. In the future, if you have a son, you can inherit my family business if you are outstanding."

The Dong sisters heard their mother say along the way that Zhu Hongsan has no son now, and has instilled the idea that he must give birth to a son. He was happy when he heard the master say this: "Please rest assured, we must work hard to give birth to a son for the master."

Zhu Hongsan nodded, stood up and said, "Come on, let's go to bed. We'll play with you for one stone tonight."

The next day, Zhu Hongsan slept until midnight. After all, he had been beaten to death for more than five months. As soon as he got home, he got up a little late.

At this time, Ma Youfu outside the door shouted: "Master...Master..."

Zhu Hongsan cursed: "What's your name for Ma Youfu? Master, I'll sleep for a while."

Ma Youfu said outside: "Master, get up quickly, the eldest and second masters are here, waiting in the living room."

When Zhu Hongsan heard that Ma Jiyuan and Ma Mingyuan were coming, he immediately got up. The maid from the outer door came in to serve Zhu Hongsan to wash and dress. Dong Huan said on the bed: "What are you doing when you get up so early?"

Zhu Hongsan said while putting on his clothes: "You know what's the matter, sleeping on you, and the master will make you feel ecstasy when he comes back."

After putting on her clothes, Zhu Hongsan went out to the living room of the front yard with Ma Youfu. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Ma Jiyuan's whole family coming, Ma Xiaofang and Ma Ruyan were accompanying him. At this time, Ma Ruyan was being scolded by Ma Jiyuan, asking her to be virtuous and be kind and cooperate with Ma Xiaofang to manage the family. When he saw Zhu Hongsan coming in, Ma Jiyuan would not say anything.

Zhu Hongsan came in and laughed: "The mistress wanted to visit the two gentlemen today, but she didn't expect that the two gentlemen would come first. It's really a sin."
