Humane Yongchang

Chapter 2
Thinking of this, Chen Sheng subconsciously whispered in his heart: System.

The next second, a gorgeous light curtain popped up from his eyes.

The pale yellow mountains, rivers and trees, and the silhouettes of the sun, moon, and stars have a phantom background, which is thick and vast, like the wheels of history rolling over the face, majestic and magnificent!

At the bottom of the light curtain, three green lotus leaves supported two white lotuses and floated gently.

Above the white lotus, there are several lines of text formed by gray fog: [An abnormal state has been detected, the system is initializing...]

initialization……

It's been half a month, it's still initializing, and I don't know when it will be loaded.

In time, the courtyard door was pushed open.

Chen Sheng looked up, and saw a beautiful woman in two decades of age, wearing a long floral dress, and a middle-aged man in gray linen walked in one after the other.

The beautiful woman saw him from a distance, and a happy smile appeared on her beautiful face. The facial features that were originally only considered delicate were like flowers in full bloom: "My eldest man knows that Mrs. Hou is home!"

Chen Sheng also smiled: "Eldest sister, what good things did you buy today?"

The beautiful woman uncovered the white cloth covering the bamboo basket around her waist, and showed him like she was coaxing a child: "That's a lot, the old hen that has been raised for five years and the mushrooms picked last year, luckily, I even bought it. A piece of old ginseng... Be good, the eldest sister will cook chicken soup for you tonight!"

Chen Sheng glanced at the ingredients in the bamboo basket, frowned in his heart, and silently raised his eyes to look at her up and down, his eyes finally fixed on her empty bun.

He knew it in his mind, but there was a smile of anticipation on his face: "That's great, I've wanted to drink chicken soup for a long time!"

The beautiful woman saw his smiling face, and the smile lines on her eyes became more and more satisfied.

She stepped forward with a bamboo basket on her back, gently tucked the mink fur on Chen Sheng's body, and whispered softly, "It's getting cold, sit down for a while and then go back to your room, your body will be neater, you can't see so much wind. !"

"alright!"

Chen Sheng agreed with a smile, "I'll go back to my room after sitting for a while!"

"good."

The delicate woman stroked Chen Sheng's cheek with satisfaction, "Eldest sister will cook chicken soup for you."

"alright."

Chen Sheng nodded and watched the beautiful woman go to the kitchen with a bamboo basket on her back.

It was not until the back of the beautiful woman disappeared behind the door of the kitchen that his silly and sweet sunny smile slowly turned into a wry smile.

At this time, the middle-aged man in gray linen came up to him.

The middle-aged man in gray sackcloth was not too old, but his body was already slightly hunched, and only the left arm was left on both arms, and the forearm sleeve of the right arm was empty.

But his spirit is very strong. On his intact left arm, there is a fine iron hookah that is as thick as an adult's arm, and it is smooth and smooth.

"Second uncle, how much did you pay for Qingniang's hairpin?"

Chen Sheng asked directly.

The middle-aged man glanced at him in surprise, and said "hey" in surprise: "You kid, the trick is really poisonous... [-] taels of silver!"

A beautiful woman named Zhao Qing, Chen Sheng's... child bride!

She was married five years ago, after Chen Sheng's mother's filial piety, and Chen Sheng's father spent a lot of money to marry him. I heard that she was still a fallen noble.

When Chen Sheng wanted to come, there should be two reasons why his cheap father would marry Chen Sheng to such a child bride when he was so young.

As soon as he was a child, he gave Xiao Chen Sheng, who was ill since childhood, and Chen Jiachong, who started to go downhill.

Second, it is also in the name of Xiao Chen Sheng, in case it fails, he can leave the Chen family as soon as possible.

It's a pity that Xiao Chen Sheng, who was young and ignorant and suffering from long illness, has neither the heart nor the strength.

Zhao Qing was the eldest sister and the maid in the Chen family, serving Xiao Chen Sheng for five years.

Every time Chen Sheng was seriously ill and bedridden, Zhao Qingyi took care of him all night long.

Xiao Chen Sheng has been frail since he was a child, and he spends most of his time in the Chen family's house. It is an extravagant hope to go out to the market. In his small world, Zhao Qing is half of his world...

And this middle-aged man in gray linen was named Chen Hu.

He was the housekeeper of the Chen family, the nurse, the driver, and the guardian of Chen Sheng when Chen Shou went out.

The Chen family is not an aristocratic family, there are no retainers or dead men to say.

But Chen Hu's position in the Chen family is equivalent to a retainer and a dead man.

It can be seen from the fact that Chen Sheng's father, Chen Shou, was able to entrust Chen Sheng and Chen's family to take care of Chen Hu when he went out to take care of the goods.

"That hairpin is Mother Qing's only dowry. She is so precious that I usually refuse to give it to her if I want to play with it."

Chen Sheng smiled wryly and shook his head slightly: "Later, you can pick out an unimportant piece of furniture from the house and go and exchange that hairpin back."

He looked through the account books at home and knew that there was really no cash at home.

Most of the cash in the family was put into the Chen family's sale this time.

Xiaotou spent a lot of money on Xiao Chensheng's illness.

Although there are still some valuable belongings at the bottom of the box...

As for this kind of deed, Chen Sheng can do it.

Zhao Qing, a daughter-in-law, is absolutely impossible to do.

If it spreads out, it will be stabbed in the spine!
"Yes, it can be considered that Qing Niang has not served your boy for so many years!"

Chen Hu responded with a smile.

He had a life-long relationship with Chen Shou, and he never respected the master and servant in the Chen family.

Even Chen Sheng did something wrong at home. He picked up a pole and beat Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng's father would give a thumbs up when he came home and said: "Well beaten!"
After a pause, Chen Hu pulled the fine iron hookah on his back, lit it with a fire stick, and took a few puffs, his expression suddenly gloomy, "Just now, when I went out with Qingniang, I saw your Nineteenth Uncle. "

What he smokes is not tobacco leaves, but a kind of herb called "leek leaf cloud herb", which is a herbal medicine that can avoid miasma, strengthen the spleen, resolve phlegm, relieve cough and relieve pain. In the Chen family's caravan, many guys All smoke this herb.

Of course, the fine iron hookah in Chen Hu's hand is both a smoking set and a portable weapon.

Chen Shou once said to Xiao Chen Sheng: Don't look at your second uncle who only has one arm left, if you move your true style, even a dozen strong men can't get close to him!

"Uncle Nineteen?"

Chen Sheng thought about it, and soon found this person from Xiao Chen Sheng's memory, "Where did you see him?"

Chen Hu took a sip of cloud vanilla, and said in a low voice: "Jia Paradise... Pour the urinal for someone."

Extreme Paradise?
(brothel?

Chen Sheng's expression suddenly became a little depressed, "You didn't say hello to him, did you?"

Chen Hu glared at him angrily: "Do you think I'm stupid? If I want to say hello to him, he won't have to slam his head into the wall... Hey, what a good man, the knife cuts right in front of his eyes. Without blinking an eyelid, Lin Er Lin Er, but ended up making a living by serving shit and urine to people!"

Chen Hu and the "Nineteen Uncles" in his mouth were both men in the Chen family caravan.

He lost a hand on the way to the goods.

And the nineteenth uncle hurt his heart on the way of shipping the goods.

Losing a hand, although most of his martial arts skills have been abolished, the foundation of many years of hard work is still there. Although he can no longer eat knife-headed rice, if he wants to fight ordinary people, it is only easy to fight ten.

But if it hurts the heart, let alone use force with others, he can't even do heavy physical work, and he has to rely on medicines to relieve the pain on weekdays.

By convention, a man like Uncle Nineteen who was injured on the way to the goods and lost his labor should be supported and treated by the Chen family.

But the Chen family is no longer the Chen family it used to be.

As for Uncle Nineteen, he obviously didn't want to drag the Chen family down.

"I still have a few furs and accessories in my room. You can send them to the pawnshop later, and exchange them for money and food, and send them to each household... Uncles like the Nineteenth who are important in the family, send more as appropriate. A little later."

Chen Sheng frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "This is a drop in the bucket, but I'll get past the stall in front of me first, and I'll come up with a solution later!"

When Chen Hu heard this, he did not despise Chen Sheng because he was young, but gave him a very relieved look: "Dalang, you have finally grown up!"

The backbone of the Chen family caravan is, after all, the Chen family.

Only when the Chen family can afford it can the Chen family caravan have the backbone.

Chen Sheng finally couldn't help but glared at the old man who leaned on the old and sold the old man angrily: "Okay, while the sky is still early, you can show me on the street."

Chen Hu looked at Chen Sheng up and down, opened his mouth a few times, and finally held back, nodded and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go set the car."

He was worried about Chen Sheng's body.

But he couldn't stop the Chen family from carrying the burden.

　The wind is back...
