Fifteen minutes later, Eldest Brother Shen finally vented all his frustrations.
"Eldest Brother, have some tea?" Shen Yao handed him a cup of tea considerately.
"Thank you, Third Brother." Eldest Brother Shen smiled gratefully. "But then again, why did you and Ah Tao come to the county city?"
"Second Shopkeeper You invited Ah Tao to cook," Shen Yao explained concisely. In the end, he asked, "Eldest Brother, the Old Madam Ma that Second Manager You mentioned is County Magistrate Ma's mother?"
"Yes." Eldest Brother Shen nodded. "This Old Madam Ma is from the northwest. I heard that Magistrate Ma's father died of illness when he was twelve years old. It was this Old Madam Ma who raised Magistrate Ma and had to beg on the streets. Fortunately, Magistrate Ma is also a hardworking person. He participated in several examinations and finally passed. Later on, he was transferred to Dingyuan County to be the county magistrate."
