Chapter 807 If I Had Known Today, Why Bother?
Wang Rong, the master’s sister-in-law, then answered: “Yes, yes, yes, let’s try other dishes too.”
Mr. Du is the happiest today. The house has not been so lively for a long time.
Halfway through the meal, the mistress was about to get up and go to the kitchen.
The master's wife asked: "Master's wife, what do you want to do?"
The master's wife Cheng Liying said with a smile: "I'll bring over the steamed buns that are warm on the stove."
Wang Rong quickly grabbed his wife: "Master's wife, please sit down. How can I let you go?"
After finishing speaking, he shouted to his second son at the table opposite: "Ma Rui Gangjing, hurry up to the kitchen and bring over the hot steamed buns in the pot."
When Xinyan heard what Master's Wife said, she was a little curious and said: "Master's Wife, I wanted to ask last time, why do their brother and sister have four-letter names?"
Upon hearing this, not only Wang Rong blushed, but also senior brother Ma Chengxi felt a little uncomfortable.
When Xinyan saw this posture, she wondered if she had asked some sensitive questions. She was just thinking of what to say and changed the subject when she heard Mr. Du snort and glare at his eldest disciple Ma. Cheng glanced at him.
Then, he looked at Xinyan with a smile: "Everyone in the room knows about this, but today I just want to save face for your senior brother. The master will tell you their glorious history in private later."
Senior Brother Ma Cheng's face turned red with embarrassment: "Master, it's been so many years since that happened, so don't tell your junior sister, lest she laugh out loud."
Mr. Du glanced at the couple: "If I had known what would happen today, why would I do it in the first place?"
After that, everyone was seen fighting for food with serious faces, as if they didn't hear what Mr. Du said, but if you look closely, you can see that everyone is holding back enough.
Xinyan looked at everyone in confusion. In the end, Shen Guqing couldn't bear it anymore. She stood up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to help Rui Gangjing. He shouldn't be able to carry so much by himself."
Afterwards, the second senior brother Wang Manchun also stood up: "Master, I'll make some tea first. I'll drink it after dinner."
Xinyan looked at this, then looked at that, wondering what the situation was, and whether she wanted to mention it or not. Why did she feel that she couldn't understand it.
Ma Ruigang came back with steamed buns and put a basin on the table, then quickly stepped aside to be a quail. He didn't want to be caught out by his parents and used as cannon fodder.
Everyone moved very quickly, and with Shen Guqing and Du Lingyun adjusting the atmosphere, everyone was talking about something else within a short time.
After everyone finished eating, Xinyan helped put the dishes away in the kitchen. There were not so many people in the kitchen, so Xinyan was pulled into the courtyard by Shen Guqing to bask in the sun.
Shen Guqing looked around and saw no one around, then said, "Do you want to know why the eldest nephew is called Ma Ruigangjing and the younger niece is called Ma Ruixiannuan?"
Xinyan looked back and reached out to grab the senior sister's arm: "What on earth is going on?"
Only then did Shen Guqing say:
It turns out that the elder brother Ma Chengxi and the elder sister-in-law Wang Rong had separate relationships before they got together, but due to various reasons, they finally separated. The elder brother and the elder sister-in-law were later introduced to each other, and both families felt that The two fell in love, and after being together for a while, they got married at the urging of their families.
They had their eldest son, Ma Ruiming, in the second year of their marriage. They got married first and then fell in love, and they lived a very loving life after that.
However, when the master's wife was pregnant with her second son and youngest daughter, the elder brother's first love got divorced and returned to her natal family. Unfortunately, the elder brother's house was not far from the woman's natal home.
I don’t know what the woman’s motives were, but she always had a chance encounter with the senior brother. It didn’t matter once or twice. The more times it happened, the more gossip naturally arose, and the matter reached the ears of the senior brother’s sister-in-law.
You also know the temper of the senior brother. He is not good at talking. He felt that it was not because he did not provoke the woman, so he did not explain it to the senior sister-in-law.
But as time went by, the elder sister-in-law felt that she was holding her breath so much that she began to have a unilateral cold war with the elder brother. Although the elder brother felt that something was wrong with the elder sister-in-law, he did not understand what was wrong with her.
How could this master's wife bear it? She just packed up her things and went back to her parents' house.
