Chapter 21 The scholar who digs trenches with Mud Legs
Ma Su was still immersed in his own world, and he even found the trick to save effort. Once he hoeed, the soil would be dug up obediently.
"Who is Mr. Ma?"
In addition to the yamen runners, there were also a few idle men. The firecrackers they set off just now.
Seeing Ma Su still digging a canal, Fang Jielun quickly stepped forward and shouted in a low voice: "Xiao Ma, oh no, it's a scholar, hurry up and receive the good news!"
Is he Ma Su?
Several people who reported the good news were stunned. This damn scholar was digging a trenches with a bunch of mud legs. Who would believe this if you tell me it!
Zhang Shuhui, who heard the sound of firecrackers in the deep house, stood up and said to Liu: "Sister-in-law, congratulations."
Liu sat there dumbly, muttering to himself: "Have you really been hit? It's not next door, right?"
"Damn! The firecrackers are so loud, how can I fish!"
Fang Xing handed the fishing rod to Xin Laoqi, and then went to the front.
When Fang woke up, Ma Su just woke up. He continued the good news, and the muscles on his face were trembling.
A child in his teens seemed to be told by someone: Your kid is so lucky! He actually entered the top 500 company in the world, and he had a strong job and many privileges when he went there.
"Ahem!"
Just as Ma Su looked at the good news and endured the sorrow and joy, Fang Xing heard a dry cough, and he immediately bowed and said, "Teacher, thanks to the kindness of his ancestors, and relying on the teacher's earnest teachings, the disciples won the opportunity to win,"
Only then did the people who reported the good news know Fang Xing's identity.
This guy looks like a rural idle man, but he is actually the teacher of a scholar?
Fang Xing waved to Jay Fang, and waited for him to come forward and say, "Take out the prepared wedding money and take them to the main house."
Only then did Jay Fang remember the serious business. He untied the purse tied around his waist, and each person had a lot of money for the wedding, which made the people who reported the good news happy.
If you report good news these days, the rich will of course give you rewards, but seeing how Ma Su still needs to dig a trench on the day of his debut, they have already lost hope of happy money.
But this teacher of the scholar gave them a surprise and actually made a lot of money.
Fang Xing patted Ma Su on the shoulder and said, "Go and take them to report the good news to your mother."
Ma Su wiped his eyes, and after a huh, he took the initiative to walk towards the main house.
Fang Xing turned around and said to the several people who reported the good news: "I'm sorry, please have a drink of wedding wine after you've finished it."
"I dare not, I dare not."
A few guys dare not underestimate Fang Xing. The teacher who can be a scholar is almost ready to emerge.
"housekeeper."
"Young Master."
Fang Xing looked at the various expressions on the faces of the farmers and said lightly: "Thank you for a while, today the village will open a flowing table, and every household will come."
"Yes, Master."
Jielun knew that his young master could not persuade him, so he simply agreed and then went to discuss with Hua Niang how to do it.
After everyone left, Fang Xing looked at the envious merchants and could no longer say that sentence.
These people are all slaves, and getting out of the country is a bolt from the blue for them. Otherwise, Fang Xing would really want to help a study class so that all the children can come to study.
However, although you cannot learn the Four Books and Five Classics, you can still learn some things...
"Everyone goes home and asks people to go. Today, everyone comes to eat from morning to night!"
Fang Xing's words made the merchants overjoyed and forgot about his envy for Ma Su just now. He only remembered that the family didn't have to start a family today, and according to the owner's character, meat and fish are mostly indispensable.
After Fang woke up and returned to the main house, Hua Niang had already recruited more than a dozen women and was preparing to cook for those temporary large stoves.
Although this kind of work is hard, everyone is happy, because they can take the remaining food home after the work is over.
Surrounding the main house, every household moved the tables and benches. The children were playing, and the men squatted aside and said with a smile about the good days of Fangjiazhuang recently.
In the main house, Ma Suzheng and Liu cried, while Fang Xing and Zhang Shuhui avoided it, allowing the mother and son who had experienced ups and downs to vent their emotions.
"Husband, was you the same as Ma Su when you passed the imperial examination before?"
Zhang Shuhui asked sentimentally, holding Fang Xing's arm.
Fang Xing smiled dryly and said, "I was very calm at that time and even went out for a walk."
Xiaobai, who came back to pick up the things, couldn't help laughing when she heard this. But she remembered that her young master was so happy that she was stunned. If it weren't for the master who pinched him at that time, she would have probably gone crazy.
Fang Xing threw an eye dart over, Xiaobai bit his lower lip, held the hem of the skirt and ran away with laughter.
"That! The weather is really good today!"
Fang Xing was a little embarrassed. He saw his mood and performance after passing the imperial examination in the original owner's notes. In one word: crazy!
But is this a word?
The atmosphere is just Maimai, and Fang Xing is about to do something...
"Can Ma be there?"
"Pony, pony!"
Fang Xing's hand just held Zhang Shuhui's chin with a shy face, but there was a noise outside, which made him let go of his hand in disappointment.
"Stop, who are you?"
Xin Laoqi's voice covered the movements.
"You avoid it first."
Fang Xing frowned and walked out of the courtyard after Zhang Shuhui left.
The main house is the private place of the Fang family. Generally, polite people would say hello to Xin Laoqi outside the gate, but when the sounds outside seemed to have some conflict.
"We are here to congratulate Ma. Why don't you, a fool, report quickly?"
A man in a Confucian shirt pointed at Xin Laoqi with a folding fan and shouted.
"Yes, yes, go and report quickly, otherwise you will be careful of your errands being lost!"
“…”
Fang Xing came out and saw Xin Laoqi retreating with sweating profusely, so he coughed dryly.
"Who are you?"
The man in the Confucian shirt took back the folding fan and looked at Fang Xing with an scrutiny.
Fang Xing looked at these men. The largest of them had a bit of gray on his temples, but he still looked frivolous.
"Is there anything wrong with you?"
Fang Xingming asked knowingly.
The man in Confucian shirt seemed to be his head, and he raised his head and said, "We are students of Shuntian Mansion, who are you?"
These days, scholars are becoming more and more aware of their status, and it has been more than a day or two for people to see people with their nostrils.
These guys probably saw Ma Su passing the exam for scholars and thought everyone could make a difference, so they came after they heard the news.
Ma Su became famous in one fell swoop and was very young, which was a huge advantage in the field of science.
As the saying goes, you can learn until you get old, and you can get old. There are many people who are still taking the exam for scholars in their fifties and sixties.
Ma Su is old enough to allow him to arrange his imperial examination path calmly. As long as there is no mistake, his future will definitely be promising.
This year, we should also pay attention to the relationship as soon as possible!
but……
Fang Xing looked at these extraordinary guys and thought to himself that they hadn’t found out about Ma Su’s origin?
