163.Chapter 163: The Cave House

Several women were in the house, chatting happily, and suddenly Zhang Ling saw Chen Xu walking in, and she quickly got up to greet her.

"The concubine has seen a beloved. Jun came here today, but you want to find your uncle? ”

Seeing Zhang Ling, a trace of tenderness flashed in Chen Xu's eyes.

Zhang Ling is gentle and considerate, and she usually takes care of Chen Xu.

For Chen Xu, whose soul comes from later generations, being able to marry such a woman as a wife is a blessing that he has cultivated in several lifetimes.

The rest of the women also came out to greet Chen Xu. Even Chen's mother came out to greet Chen Xu.

Now Chen Xu's identity is extraordinary, although he is Chen Xu's uncle. But after hearing Chen Xu's legend, every time she saw Chen Xu, she was always a little restrained.

The crimson snake that Chen Xu killed, Chen's mother had also seen it. Such a miraculous serpent is deservedly called the Red Dragon.

She couldn't believe that the kid with the tiger head and the tiger brain used to be the 'son of the yellow sky'. But the facts are in front of her, and she can't help but believe it.

Seeing his uncle go out to greet him, Chen Xu hurriedly saluted her and said, "Why don't you see your uncle at home today?" ”

Chen's mother pulled Chen Xu up and said, "Your uncle is an honest farmer, and he can't be idle, so he went to the field to help others with their work." ”

"Wen Zhao, you see that my uncle and I are idle, can you give us a few acres of land? The farmer is busy every day, and his heart is comfortable. ”

After finishing speaking, Mother Chen looked at Chen Xu with a blank eye.

Seeing this, Chen Xu was stunned. Thinking that my uncle and aunt are not living badly now, why do I still need fields?

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Xu suddenly realized. For generations, the Chinese have had an extraordinary attachment to the field.

For everyone, no matter how good their life is, they don't have a field at home, and their hearts are not steady.

Chen Xu led everyone up the mountain, because the mountain is not suitable for growing crops, so there are not many high-quality fields. Fortunately, the Taihang Mountains stretch for more than 800 miles, and there are still many places that can be converted into terraced fields.

It is these fields, coupled with the large number of livestock in the mountains, that can supply hundreds of thousands of people in the cottages.

Seeing the expectant look on Chen's mother's face, Chen Xu did not hesitate and said: "This matter is easy to say, I will give some land to the family when I go back, I just hope that the second elder will not work too hard." ”

Chen Xu and Chen Hu are like a family, and Chen Hu has made many achievements, so it doesn't hurt to give them some land.

Nowadays, there are very few private fields in the cottages, and most of them are leased to the people.

It's just that the cottage collects very little land rent, and almost every household has livestock, so they can be driven to the mountains to graze in their spare time.

In this way, the people who are not oppressed by the government, although they live in the harsh mountains, have a good life.

When Chen's mother heard Chen Xu's affirmative reply, she couldn't hide the happy look on her face.

Although she understands righteousness and reason, she is only a peasant woman after all. There are countless people like her, and they all look forward to having land to cultivate.

Seeing his uncle's happy look, Chen Xu asked her again, "Is Ah Hu still in the barracks?" ”

Chen's mother replied, "Yes, Ah Hu often stays in the barracks with Ah Wei. ”

She hesitated again and said to Chen Xu: "Wen Zhao, you also know that our family is poor, so when Ah Hu was twenty years old, no one took words for him. ”

"I heard that there are two gentlemen in the cottage, and they are both very cultured people. I don't know if you can tell them to help Ah Hu get a table word? ”

In Chen's mother's opinion, no expression is inferior after all, so she asked Chen Xu like this.

Chen Xu was stunned again when he heard this. He came from the afterlife, and his feelings for this expression are not as deep as others.

At the beginning, because of Qiao Xuan's appreciation, he was given the word 'Wenzhao' when he left.

Chen Xu didn't know that when everyone in Chenjia Village knew that he had received the world-famous Qiao Xuan's words, they were all very envious.

Table words are not only a title, but also a manifestation of identity.

In this era, ordinary people did not have the qualifications to take words, only those middle- and upper-class people, as well as some scholars with poor backgrounds, were eligible to have table characters.

Feeling Chen's mother's strong expectation, Chen Xu frowned slightly, and said: "Ah Hu is now past the age of taking words, I will go to ask Mr. tomorrow, as well as Ah Hu's own thoughts, and then discuss the matter of taking words?" ”

When Chen's mother heard this, her hands were stirred together, although she was a little lost, she was still like a chicken pecking rice, and said: "This feeling is good, this feeling is good!" ”

Later, Wen Zhao found Chen Hu and mentioned the matter of the table to him, but he didn't care at all. Therefore, Wen Zhao also gave up the idea of asking Tian Feng to give him words.

This time, Wen Zhao originally wanted to contact Chen's father, but seeing that he was not at home, it was naturally not good to stay here. After nodding to everyone, he left Chen's father's house.

When Zhang Ling saw her beloved leaving, she hurriedly apologized to everyone, and then chased after her.

The figures of the two gradually drifted apart, only Zhao Yu was still staring into the distance reluctantly.

Mother Chen turned her head and smiled when she saw the little girl's expression. She knew that her nephew was a person who had achieved great things, and she also knew that this little girl had a good impression of her nephew.

In her opinion, it is impossible for her nephew to marry only one wife for the rest of his life. If we can match in the future, maybe this little girl will also become a family.

Catching up with Chen Xu, Zhang Ling asked in a low voice: "It's almost dinner time today, and Jun Ke has to go out." ”

Chen Xu looked at the sky and said, "Let's go home early today." ”

Then he took Zhang Ling back home.

Although Chen Xu is the commander of the first army, in addition to the large courtyard, his home is also extremely simple.

He did not waste manpower and material resources to change the place where he lived beautifully; I didn't hire a few people to help with household chores.

Zhang Ling is a very good wife, and in addition to those pro-soldiers, there are only two people living in the family. So the whole courtyard was well kept by her.

"Jun take a rest in the house first, and I'll go cook."

Chen Xu was simple and generous, and only ten personal soldiers were left in the courtyard.

The rest of the houses with families and soldiers are also close to Chen Xu's courtyard. The soldiers who did not have a family all lived in a large courtyard next to it.

When it was time to eat, he would invite his family soldiers to eat together.

In the past, everyone would eat with him, but since Chen Xu killed the red dragon, the soldiers insisted that there was a difference between respect and inferiority, and refused to act as before.

Chen Xu repeatedly persuaded him, but it had no effect, so he had to give up.

In this way, Zhang Ling's workload has been reduced a lot. When the husband and wife eat alone, there is also a special warmth.

The lack of entertainment measures in the Han Dynasty and the fact that lighting at night consumed a lot of fuel, so everyone went to bed early.

As usual, after Chen Xu took a bath, he had to go to bed. Although he slept with Zhang Ling, he didn't want to force this poor woman who had lost her father and two uncles.

Because China has paid attention to filial piety since ancient times, and has also taken 'filial piety' as a very important criterion for promoting officials and selecting talents. Therefore, people also attach great importance to 'filial piety'.

After the death of an elder in the family, it is extremely common for them to keep filial piety for three years without wearing fancy clothes, eating delicious food, or even having sex.

But Chen Xu is a man with strong blood, and he is accompanied by a beautiful woman every night, but he can't discuss the philosophy of life with her, which is undoubtedly a very painful thing.

So every time he sleeps, Chen Xu turns his back to Zhang Ling and tries not to look at her bumpy figure.

Chen Xu was lying on the bed, thinking about miscellaneous things.

In his previous life, he was a night owl, but in this era, there is really no good entertainment at night, so he has to go to bed early and get up early.

After a few years, he had already adapted to this life.

Chen Xu felt very strange tonight, as a person who practices martial arts, being deaf and clear-sighted is undoubtedly the most basic requirement.

When he was lying quietly on the bed, he heard Zhang Ling's heartbeat behind him, as well as the sound of heavy breathing.

Although Chen Xu felt a little inexplicable, his body couldn't help but become hot. As a result, he didn't dare to move, so he had to endure lying on the bed.

"Damn, this kind of life is really not human!"

Cursing fiercely in his heart, Chen Xu began to breathe in and adjust his breathing. The restlessness in his body had just calmed down, and he suddenly felt that the beautiful woman hugged him from behind.

Suddenly attacked, Chen Xu felt his body stiffen. But he could feel that the beautiful woman behind him was also trembling slightly.

Zhang Ling was also nervous, according to filial piety, she should not have sex with Chen Xu. But she is now twenty years old, and her beloved is also twenty-two years old.

Maybe there is nothing at this age in later generations, but in the Han Dynasty, there were no children at this age, which was already a big thing.

If it is an ordinary person from a poor family, there is nothing. But now Chen Xu is the commander of hundreds of thousands of people, and if he has no heirs, it will be a very big thing.

So Zhang Ling, who has been thinking about it for a long time, has such a move.

……

Desire has never been so strong.

At night, the sky is full of brilliant stars. They seemed to know shyness, too, and kept blinking their eyes.

The breeze blew, passing through the cracks in the door, and whimpering, as if excited, as if talking about the things in the house.

Those pro-soldiers standing at the door of Wen Zhao are not lacking in some people who are deaf and clear-sighted. They heard the faint commotion coming from inside, and immediately smiled at each other.

These people have followed Wen Zhao for a long time, and many of them are even the children of Chenjia Village. They are naturally willing to see that Chen Xu can have a full house of children and grandchildren.

But after Zhang Jiao's death, Zhang Ling, as a daughter, kept filial piety for her father, but no one dared to say anything.

Now that their father-in-law and mother-in-law have moved, they are naturally very happy.

The night is getting deeper and deeper. A wonderful night passed slowly.
