Just after Ma Shuming lit the first fire, he withdrew to talk with the village chief and several clan elders by the river.

For Ma Shuming, who is self-proclaimed, being crowded around the burning tower with the villagers, yelling and screaming, is really a bit of a shame, and he can't bear that face.

The village head and the head of the Ma clan asked about his affairs in the academy, and Ma Shuming took the ladder he was handed over logically.

In Shanshui Village, Ma Shuming is the only young student who has been admitted to the school of scholar.

There are quite a few families with daughters waiting in their boudoirs, and they all covet this piece of Tang monk flesh.

Taking advantage of the moonlight tonight and the festive atmosphere, many girls of Ma Shuming's age came out.

The firelight illuminated most of the sky, and the river was gleaming, like it was covered with broken gold.

Ma Shuming stood proudly under the top of the willow tree, half of his tall and straight figure was reflected in the light, and half was shrouded in shadow, looking mysterious and outstanding, comparable to the person in the painting.

The cognition and vision of the village girls are limited.

The farthest place they have been to is the town, and they have never seen the appearance of the children of noble officials in the legend, so they can't imagine what kind of bearing the noble son is.

But Ma Shuming was standing in front of him alive.

Although they are in the same world, he is still an unreachable existence in their life experience.

Looking at the tall and polite young man under the top of the willow tree, the girls felt as if their hearts were floating in mid-air, up and down, with no place to rest.

Not far away, Ma Dazu's daughter-in-law, Wang Shi, was also wandering near the river with her natal niece.

Wang's marriage proposal to Yang Mei was rejected last time, so she was about to give up.

But later, Yangmei started to do the tofu business. After she and her sister-in-law Luo Shi were invited to make tofu, her mind became active again.

Knowing that Ma Shuming was going back to the village for the mid-autumn festival, she picked up her niece from her natal family to stay here in advance, and wanted to create some opportunities for her niece when Ma Shuming returned to the village.

Mid-Autumn Festival tonight, every family will come out to admire the moon and watch the burning pagoda.

Wang saw Ma Shuming talking to the village head and patriarch by the river, and after thinking about Ma Shuming coming out, he took the opportunity to go up and introduce his niece to the other party.

Wang is still very confident about her niece's appearance, otherwise, she wouldn't have such a big face to recommend her niece to Yang Mei.

"Cui Cui, did you see that?

That is Ma Shuming, a scholar, he is handsome, right? "Ms. Wang lowered her voice and pointed to the young man not far away.

Wang Cuicui lowered her head shyly and pursed her lips and smiled, her heartbeat was as dense and urgent as a drum.

She had heard her aunt describe Ma Shuming's appearance before, and she knew that he was a scholar with a gentle manner, so he must not be ugly.

When she saw him today, she knew that Ma Shuming was so handsome.

The man under the firelight seemed to have a filter in her eyes. His delicate and beautiful eyebrows were stained with a gleam, and his whole body was full of vitality from the inside to the outside.

Wang Cuicui choked for breath, her face was hot, and two blushes appeared.

"Auntie, I..." Wang Cuicui squeezed the handkerchief nervously, "He is a talented person, and he looks so good, can he fall in love with me?"

Wang Cuicui was very disturbed. Although she thought she was not bad looking, she was born in a farming family and did not have a capable natal family, so she could not help Ma Shuming at all.

If people had a better choice, how could they look up to her?

"Don't be afraid, as long as you can catch his heart, everything else will be fine." Mrs. Wang patted the back of her niece's hand to comfort her.

It's a pity that Mrs. Wang didn't meet Mrs. Zhao at this moment, or she would find out that this is a person who has the same idea as herself!

Mrs. Zhao is Ma Tong's mother-in-law in the old house, and Ma Shuming's nominal second aunt.

At this time, Mrs. Zhao was also accompanied by a young girl, who was also Mrs. Zhao's niece, named Zhao Fuling.

If Zhao Fuling and Wang Cuicui were compared together, it would be impossible to tell the difference.

Although the two are not related by blood, their facial features and facial features are six to seven points similar.

The obvious difference may be the shape of the eyebrows and the shape of the mouth.

Zhao Fuling has flat eyebrows and smiling lips.

Wang Cuicui has willow leaf eyebrows and water chestnut mouth.

It can be regarded as each has its own characteristics.

Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Fuling are in the other corner at the moment, in the opposite direction to Mrs. Wang and Wang Cuicui.

After a while, it depends on which side Ma Shuming is going, whoever can get there first will have a chance.

Mrs. Zhao told Zhao Fuling carefully, and told Zhao Fuling all the plots that had been set in advance.

Zhao Fuling carefully wrote down every link that her aunt said, and secretly encouraged herself to firmly grasp this opportunity and successfully take down Ma Shuming.

As long as she married into the Ma family, she would be a talented lady.

The tofu workshop Mrs. Ma is trying to build will also be hers.

At that time, she will have the right to say who to invite to make tofu and how to distribute the tofu business.

Zhao Fuling looked deeply at the figure not far away, her lips curled up in a smile.

"Auntie, don't worry, as long as I marry successfully, I will definitely repay you well!"

These words hit Zhao's heart.

She patted her niece's head with relief, thinking that the best way to defeat Yang Mei, an old bastard, was to take away what she cared most about.

Isn't Ma Shuming the most proud son of this old man?

When the niece married him, she firmly grasped his heart, and when the wind blew on the pillow, Yang Mei, the mother, had to step aside.

As for the tofu workshop, my niece is also smart. Such a profitable business must be slowly acquired.

After getting the tofu recipe, they will empty out the old Yangmei shelf step by step, and then arrange her and her younger siblings Mi to enter the workshop. At that time, they will have the final say on the tofu workshop.

Zhao's abacus was crackling, and she silently prayed in her heart that tonight must go smoothly.

Ma Shuming had finished chatting with the village head and the others at this moment, and was walking alone by the river outside the woods.

Zhao Fuling knew that her chance had come, and excitedly squeezed the veil tightly.

"Auntie, have I passed?!"

Mrs. Zhao replied, "Go ahead", and planned to help her niece watch the wind nearby, and she must not let anyone come over to spoil the good deeds of her niece and Ma Shuming.

Ma Shuming stood on a rock with his hands behind his back, looking up at the bright moon above his head, thoughtful.

He had just heard from the village head what Niang Zhang had said to the village head and several clan elders when she planned to build a tofu workshop.

Ma Shuming's heart was agitated slightly.

Niangjie and other women all have such courage and insight, but he has always only seen his own personal interests.

Especially in the morning, he still wanted to sacrifice his sister's happiness to take a shortcut.

Ma Shuming felt that he had read the sage books for so many years in vain.

Just as his thoughts were leaving, Ma Shuming suddenly heard an exclamation.
