Chapter 101 Invite Ma Ye

The water waves on the Yellow Canal are rippling, and from time to time you can see fish swimming through the water. Li Xiu was blowing a small song and walking forward along the riverside. Soon he saw Mr. Ma fishing not far away. He smiled and leaned over and said, "Uncle Ma, how are the harvest today? Have you caught any big fish?"

"The fishing rod is so unpleasant. Since I changed the fishing rod, I have never caught any big fish again!" Mr. Ma said at this time, and said, "I didn't feel very happy to see him."

"Hehe, Uncle Ma, don't be so stingy. Isn't it just a fishing rod with jade inlaid? Let the princess give you another one in the future. As for the original one, don't worry about it!" Li Xiu said with a smile again. Last time, Mr. Ma made a bet to lose the fishing rod with jade inlaid to Li Xiu, and since then, he has been talking in front of him a lot.

"It's easy to say!" Mr. Ma gave Li Xiu a look again, and then said again, "Tell me, what's the matter with me today?"

"Uncle Ma, what you said, can't I come to you if I'm fine?" Li Xiu said with a grievance when he heard this.

"In the past, you might have talked to me when you are fine, but now I don't believe it anymore. Don't think I don't know what you are doing during this period!" Mr. Ma suddenly snorted coldly at this time. It seemed that he was indeed a little dissatisfied with Li Xiu.

"Well, Uncle Ma, what do you mean? Have I done something that makes you angry during this period?" Li Xiu asked with a dry cough, but he could even feel the guilt in his tone.

"What does it mean, don't you understand?" Ma Master glared at Li Xiu again and said. This matter has been in his heart for a long time, but he has been holding back and not asking. However, today he and Li Xiu are the only ones here, so he finally couldn't help asking.

"I really don't understand what you mean by Ma Master?" Li Xiu still gritted his teeth and said stubbornly. Ma Master has a special identity. Even in Princess Pingyang's heart, Ma Master is actually more like his father. This also makes Li Xiu always feel guilty when facing Ma Master.

"The little brat is still unwilling to admit it. What's going on with you and the princess? I have to make it clear that you will admit it, right?" Ma asked again angrily. In his heart, Princess Pingyang is almost his daughter. As for Li Xiu, although he has known him for a long time, he has always treated him as his nephew, but he never expected that Li Xiu would seduce his daughter away.

When Li Xiu heard that Ma Ma had made the words clear, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had guessed that this matter could not be hidden from Ma Ma. He thought he would turn a blind eye, but he didn't expect that he would ask in person.

"Uncle Ma, I admit that I really have a good impression of the princess, but we are very innocent and there is absolutely nothing beyond the courtesy!" Li Xiu nodded first to admit it, and then explained.

Although he and Princess Pingyang both understood each other's feelings and only had a clear relationship, both of them had a tacit understanding and did not break the last layer of window paper. They usually kept it politely when they got along, and never even pulled their hands. Because Princess Pingyang is still someone else's nominal wife, they all agreed to maintain the subtle relationship of the present before resolutely disbanding this nominal marriage.

"Boy, if you dare to do anything beyond your means, be careful I will break your leg!" Mr. Ma was so angry that he glared at this, but then he asked again, "But tell me honestly, do you really like the princess?"

"Of course, my heart for the princess is clear at the best of all!" Li Xiu replied without hesitation. Mr. Ma was the elder of Princess Pingyang, and he had met his parents today.

"Bad!" Mr. Ma cursed angrily when he heard this, "If you really like the princess, why don't you find a way to terminate the marriage between the princess and Chai Shao? Do you want to continue with the princess so unclear and marry other women in the future?"

"Uncle Ma, where do you want to go?" Li Xiu finally understood why Mr. Ma was angry when he heard this. He hurriedly explained, "I don't have the idea you said, and I have already thought of a way to relieve it."

"I understand, do you think the princess has married, so it is not worth your efforts, right?" Before Li Xiu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ma Ye again angrily, "I tell you that although the princess and Chai Shao are nominally married, they have no real husband and wife. They even failed to even finish the church at the beginning. Strictly speaking, they are not husband and wife at all. Moreover, the princess has never pretended to be a man in recent years. You are the only man who can make the princess treat each other differently!"

"Uncle Ma, don't be excited. I know what you said. I absolutely have no idea of ​​dislike the princess. In fact, I only feel extremely lucky to be favored by the princess. As for the princess and Chai Shao, I also thought of a solution. The princess agreed to this, but it just took some time to prepare!" Li Xiu explained helplessly again. As the saying goes, caring is confusing. A person as smart as Ma has become irrational in the matter of princess.

"Really? The princess really wants to terminate the marriage with Chai Shao?" Ma Ye was stunned when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then he shouted loudly with ecstasy. He tried hard to persuade Princess Pingyang to terminate the marriage with Chai Shao in name only, but Princess Pingyang was too worried. Because of Li Yuan's dissatisfaction, the matter was delayed. Now he finally encountered a turning point.

"That's right, and I already have a complete plan. Your Majesty can only nod and agree to this matter, so you don't have to worry." Li Xiu said with a firm face at this time. In addition to the contribution of the sky-splashing achievements made by offering high-yield crops, he also has other auxiliary plans. He will not believe that Li Yuan will not agree.

"Good boy, I did not read you wrong. No matter whether you and the princess can succeed or not, as long as you can make the princess and Chai Shao and Li, it will be a great joy!" Ma Ye believed that Li Xiu would not lie to him on this matter, and he couldn't help but pat Li Xiu on the shoulder happily and praised him.

"Uncle Ma, why do you sound so awkward? What does it mean that no matter whether the princess and I can succeed? Are you so dissatisfied with me and the princess?" Li Xiu said very dissatisfied when he heard this. He was so old that he couldn't even say a word. Don't you know how many blessings you?

"Bah, you kid is full of colorful intestines. In the future, the princess really wants to live with you. I don't know how much losses she will suffer. Let me tell you, if I let you know that you kid dares to bully the princess, be careful I will break your leg!" Mr. Ma said angrily again. He and Prince Pingyang were named master and servant, but in fact he was like a father-in-law. Now that he saw that his good cabbage was about to be warded by a pig, Mr. Ma naturally had no good temper. It is probably the common feature of his father-in-law in the world.

"Hehe, Uncle Ma, you broke my leg. Isn't it still the princess who is heartbroken?" Li Xiu smiled shamelessly when he heard this. It was not his first time in love. He had a lot of experience in dealing with his father-in-law in his previous life. Here are three key points: the first is persistence, the second is shameless, and the third is persistence. As long as you do these three points, there will be no problem in getting the father-in-law's family.

Ma Ye was also amused by Li Xiu's words, and couldn't help but laugh and scold him again. To be honest, among the young people he had met, there were very few who could be worthy of Princess Pingyang. Li Xiu's character was the best choice. What's even more rare is that Princess Pingyang didn't know what he liked him, and her relationship with Li Xiu was becoming increasingly close, which was something that Ma Ye couldn't control.

After chatting for a while, Li Xiu then talked about the important matter he came to find Mr. Ma today: "Uncle Ma, our family will move to the new yard the day after tomorrow. According to the rules, we will hold a housewarming banquet. How about you go and have a few drinks at that time?"

"It's time to move in. Do you want me to tell the princess? She might want to go?" Mr. Ma nodded when he heard this, and then suggested.

"No, I have already told the princess that she will definitely go then!" Li Xiu waved his hand with a smile. In the past few days, he often took advantage of the opportunity of planting flowers and plants to stay with Princess Pingyang, so why should he need Ma Ye to notify him?

Hearing this, Ma Master couldn't help but give Li Xiu a blank look again. In the past, if Li Xiu had any problems, he would look for himself first. Now, he doesn't need him as an intermediary, which makes Ma Master feel like he is too young to stay.

"Hehe, Mr. Ma, you can't be empty-handed when you come to the housewarming banquet. You don't need to bring anything else, but you can see if you bring some distilled wine. Last time you took the distiller away, but now there is no good wine at home!" Li Xiu said shamelessly again. Since Mr. Ma learned about the effect of alcohol, he reported it to Li Yuan as soon as possible. Li Yuan also attached great importance to this and handed over the distillation workshop to Mr. Ma for the construction. No sign of Mr. Ma during this period was because Mr. Ma was busy with this matter.

"Don't worry about distilled liquor. This thing is too wasteful of food and should not be spread on a large scale. If it weren't for the treatment of injuries, I'm afraid that Your Majesty would order the production of distilled liquor strictly prohibited. Moreover, even if I was responsible for the production of alcohol, there were heavy troops all around the workshop, and there were dedicated personnel responsible for the supervision and inspection points. Those who supervised were not under my control, so even if I wanted to drink some distilled liquor, I couldn't get it!" When Ma Ye heard the last, he couldn't help but shook his head helplessly. He was only responsible for the construction and management of the workshop, but the production of alcohol was not under his control. This was also the rule of the court.

Li Xiu was very disappointed when he heard this. Although he knew how to make the distiller, he couldn't find a suitable craftsman to make it, and secondly, it was too late to go to time, so he didn't care. Anyway, he didn't drink alcohol, so he just couldn't treat the guests with good wine.

After chatting for a few more words, Li Xiu was about to say goodbye and leave, but Ma Master stopped him and said, "You guy is fine, why are you in a hurry to leave? Let's chat with me here for a while. It's not too late to leave when the sun is about to set."

"Uncle Ma, I want to chat with you for more, but I still have something to do." Li Xiu spread his hands at this time.

"What can you do? What do you need to prepare for when moving?" Ma Ye asked strangely.

"The tenant in the farm said that the piglets I raised some time ago seemed a little abnormal, so I wanted me to go and see them." Li Xiu replied helplessly. It will be continued.
