Chapter 684: Chen Hu's Choice (For Wanghongtai Alliance Leader 2)

Poor, poor, this Daqin is so poor!

Walking along the street, Chen Xu's nervous mood slowly calmed down.

More than three years have passed since I traveled to the Qin Dynasty in a blink of an eye. I have been working hard all the time, but what has changed now is only Qinghe Town, this poor Zhi County, the entire Nanyang and even the entire Qin Dynasty. Except for some of the capitals of the six countries that were still prosperous and prosperous, other places are still poor, which makes him feel heartbroken.

It will take ten or twenty years or even longer before the lives of the people at the bottom of the Qin Dynasty can gradually become rich.

But it can be seen from the fact that my father had to work and earn money from the construction site of Dongfang Road from Huaiyin that as long as there was sufficient work to provide more job opportunities, the people of Daqin would slowly get rid of this poor life.

"Xiaoxu, you're here to turn the corner!" Uncle Ma pointed at the front and said.

"Slow down and stop around the corner!" Chen Xu ordered the guards.

"Yes, Marquis!"

Everyone started to reincarnate, and then a group of people quickly stopped steadily at the intersection.

"It's this foot house!" Niu Dashi pointed to a small yard on the side of the road that looked old.

"You are all waiting outside!" Chen Xu turned over and dismounted, threw the reins to a guard, and then followed Niu Dashi and Uncle Ma into the foot house.

Soon a middle-aged man in thick burlap clothes came out of the room and saluted Niu Dashi: "Mokai greets Mr. Niu!"

"Don't use too much politeness, it's good to arrange the people you take care of!" Niu Dashi nodded slightly.

"Don't worry, Lord Niu, the whole family is taking good care of it. It's roasting the fire inside to keep warm!"

"That's good, Brother Xu, go in!"

"Well, let's go!" Chen Xu was wearing an ordinary sheepskin coat, a furry hat, and the guards were all outside. Mo Kai didn't know Chen Xu's identity, so he didn't care too much about Chen Xu.

"Mr. Niu, Chen Hu's family is inside, please!" Mo Kai and the three of them walked into the door of a house in the backyard of the foot house. Before they could knock on the door, the door creaked and opened.

A middle-aged man with long hair and beard walked out. There was a clear scar on his cheek, his skin was dark and rough, wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and he was wearing a patched linden cloth.

"Brother Ma, Dashi, why are you here so cold?" After the man was stunned for a moment, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

Chen Xu deliberately lagged behind half a step behind and was blocked by Niu Dashi and Uncle Ma. He looked at the man up and down with his eyes. Not only did his heart pound for a few times, his mouth felt a little dry, but he had a title that seemed to pop out of his mouth involuntarily.

The middle-aged man's hand was still holding on the door, with a very obvious scar on the back of his hand, his palms were rough and wide, and he looked like an extremely ordinary farmer, but Chen Xu could clearly feel a hidden sharp aura on his body, and like You Jiao Liu Po ​​and many retired soldiers, it was a breath that only those who had killed people on the battlefield were able to get.

This is my father, Chen Xu was a little lost in an instant.

"Huzi, look who this is?" Uncle Ma moved away from his body, and Chen Xu and Chen Hu looked at each other. Chen Hu's body shook suddenly, and a strong surprise appeared in his eyes. He couldn't help but exclaim: "You...you are Xu'er!"

"Dad~" After holding it in for a long time, Chen Xu finally shouted.

From the moment the man opened the door, he felt a blood-connected soul throbbing. With Uncle Ma’s conversation with Chen Hu just now, Chen Xu instantly confirmed that this middle-aged man was his father who had been lost for seven years and had not returned home.

"Xu'er~" Chen Hu stepped out of the door, and his rough big hand grabbed Chen Xu's shoulders tightly. Through the huge power and slight trembling from his palm, Chen Xu felt the same excitement and surprise in his father's heart.

"You go first!" Niu Dashi waved his hand and asked Mo Kai to leave.

"Huzi, it's cold outside, so let's talk about it later!" Uncle Ma also knew that Chen Xu didn't want too many people to know about this before the dust settled, so he walked into the room and said.

"Okay, go in and talk!"

Chen Hu let go of Chen Xu excitedly. The four of them entered the house together and closed the door. Suddenly, the eyes became much darker. The room was not too big. The ground was covered with rammed earth, but over time, it had already been bumpy. A fire pit made of stone bricks, with wood burning inside. Under the red flames, there were a middle-aged woman, a teenager and a little girl sitting next to the fire pit.

Watching a group of people walking in, the woman and her two children quickly stood up, and there was a slight fear and fear on the woman's face, and she hugged the little girl tightly in her arms.

"Don't be afraid, Dashi and Brother Ma have been here twice. Xiner and Xiaomi have come to see your brother!" Chen Hu waved his hand to comfort Han Tianshi and his two children, and then pulled Chen Xu and said.

"Brother Hu, is this Xiaoxu you mentioned before?" The woman looked at Chen Xu nervously.

"Yes, I am Chen Xu!" Chen Xu bowed to the woman.

"Can you... you are Chen Xu, the famous Qinghe Marquis in the world?" The young man standing next to the woman suddenly stared at Chen Xu and asked.

Chen Xu also looked up and down at the boy, then nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I am Chen Xu, the Marquis of Qinghe. I heard that your name is Han Xin?"

"It's you, Han Xin has met his brother!" An extremely excited light appeared in the boy's eyes, and he bowed to Chen Xu with fists. Although he was only thirteen years old, he looked extremely steady and did not be frightened by Chen Xu's self-report.

"Qinghe Marquis? Who is Qinghe Marquis?" The woman was confused by the conversation between her son and Chen Xu, and had no idea what the two were talking about. Moreover, her son, who had always been unwilling to speak, would actually speak like this with her husband, the son she had never met. She was respectful and was like a different person.

"Sit down and talk first!" Chen Hu had known Chen Xu's identity for a long time. Although he was not mentally prepared for Chen Xu's sudden arrival, he knew that this matter would be clarified sooner or later, so he personally brought a few small stools for Chen Xu, Niu Dashi, Uncle Ma and the other three to sit down around the fire pit.

"Xiaomi's mother, hurry up and make a pot of tea!" After sitting down, Chen Hu ordered the woman to make tea, and then several men sat in the fire pit and stared at the red flames and began to remain silent.

After half a minute, Uncle Ma said, "Hu Zi, how do you think about this?"

Chen Hu sighed and shook his head and said, "Xu'er is here today. What should you do if you ask me to do? I have already told you clearly the previous two times. I... I really can't give up Yingniang and Xiaomi. You... can't you just think I'm dead?"

Chen Hu, a seven-foot man, also became a little stuttering at this time, but this sentence also made Chen Xu feel an extremely sour heart in his heart, and at the same time he was a little amused and laughed. Therefore, he whispered: "Dad, I don't know how you spent these years outside, but I know how my mother and Xing'er spent. Now that my mother is still here, you are still alive, I know that you are still alive. I naturally cannot be regarded as not knowing it. You should go back to see your mother and Xing'er. I don't force you to make a choice in this matter, but you just have the heart to watch your mother guarding us alone and die alone..."

Chen Hu's face twitched slightly and lowered his head a few times.

"Huzi, Xiaoxu is right. Since you are still alive, how can you pretend to be unaware of this? At least you have to go back to see Xiaoxu's mother. Regardless of whether you want to go home or not, she must know about this matter and must not hide it from her for the rest of her life!" said Uncle Ma.

"Uncle Hu, Brother Xu has become a marquis now. He can't use up all his money, grain and clothing at home. Why do you have to work hard outside like this? As long as you go back, Xiaomi and Aunt Tian will naturally be well taken care of, and you will not have to worry about food, drink, housing and use for your whole life..." Niu Dashi also persuaded him.

Han Tian, ​​who was making tea next to him, walked over with a teapot, knelt in front of Chen Hu, and said with tears in his eyes: "Brother Hu, you...you go home. Sister Jiang must have been waiting at home for so many years. I...I'll go back to my hometown with Xiaomi Xiner..."

"How is that possible?" Chen Hu stood up and pulled Han Tian up.

Han Xin, who had been standing next to him, suddenly said: "Brother, I heard that you have married three wives, and the emperor has designated them as the main wife. Although my mother and father have lived a hard life over the years, they are also loving. The so-called son does not say to his father's life. Even if the father and mother do something wrong, you can't think of other ways to let my mother and Aunt Jiang follow his father?"

"Xin'er, why do you talk to your brother like this?" Han Tianshi, as a rural woman, didn't know about state affairs or news. When she suddenly heard her son telling the emperor, she suddenly felt that Chen Xu's identity might be terrifying. Therefore, she was so scared that she quickly scolded Han Xin. At the same time, her eyes were filled with fear when she looked at Chen Xu.

"Auntie, don't be afraid. Han Xin is right. I can indeed solve this matter. I have no objection to Aunt Han going back, but I need to ask my mother for her intention first!"

Chen Xu turned to look at Chen Hu: "Dad, I have not mentioned this to my mother yet. I still respect your opinion, but you can't just leave your family alone. My mother has not been easy over the years. If you are willing to go back, I can ask the emperor to ask you to marry Aunt Han as your wife, so that you don't have to worry about both sides..."

"Huzi, Xiaoxu said that if you have anything to hesitate about this, you don't have to let the Marquis' father behave, you don't enjoy the glory and wealth. Do you really have to run around with your wife and children in the cold weather and run around to ask for food? What's more, once this matter is known and spread, Xiaoxu will be criticized and poked his back..." Uncle Ma stood up and stared at his eyes and said loudly.

"Uncle Hu, Uncle Ma is right. If you don't go back, Brother Xu will not be good at being a human being. Besides, you discussed with my father that he would marry Xing'er to me. At that time, Xing'er and I will become children but will not see my grandfather. You don't have the heart to see it, right? My father goes to war with you. Now that you are back, we are all happy, but if you don't go home, we will not be able to find anyone if we want to be filial..." Niu Dashi also spoke next to him.

Chen Xu reached behind his back and raised a thumbs up at Niu Dashi. After more than a year of pawning, Niu Dashi has now begun to transform himself. He speaks one by one and another, and knows how to move him and understand him with reason, and has made significant progress.

"Dad, let's go back with your brother!" Han Xin was obviously very satisfied with Chen Xu, the brother who suddenly jumped out.

No one is unwilling to climb high, especially when facing Chen Xu, the legendary disciple of the immortal family and the Hou of Qinghe, his attraction to him is extraordinary. He has been standing beside him and constantly looking at Chen Xu. As long as he is surrounded by his brother Chen Xu, he may have a very comfortable life in the future, and he will never have to live such a poor life that is not full or warm.

Chen Hu was silent for a long time, and after a struggle in his heart, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back with you!"

"No need to delay, let's leave now. Dashi goes to find a carriage first!" Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered.

"Okay!" Niu Dashi went out to look for a carriage.

Chen Hu quickly packed up his clothes with Han Tian, ​​and soon stopped doing it. He just had two thick burlap bags, which contained pots and pans while loading them with a shoulder pole. The family's clothes were patched. They looked neat, but they were extremely thin, and they looked no different from refugees.

When he went out, the cold wind whistled and snow particles hit him. Han Tian led Xiaomi so cold that his whole body was trembling. Chen Xu took off the fur coat he wore and wrapped it with Xiaomi. Niu Dashi also took off his fur coat and put it on Han Tian. He walked to the door of the foot house and waited for a while. The middle-aged man named Mo Kai came over just now. The carriage had only one carport and was airtight on all sides. However, at present, Zhixian could only find such a carriage that usually sat on people and pulled goods.

Chen Xu took out two finger-sized golden pancakes from his pocket and handed them to Mo Kai: "Thank you for taking care of my father these days. I am just grateful for these gold!"

"Ah, thank you thank you~~"

Mo Kai took the two golden pancakes with excited tongues and knotted them. He then helped tie the greetings to the car, and then carried Xiaomi into the car. After Chen Hu, Han Tianshi and Han Xin also got in the car and sat down, he ordered the groom to drive carefully on the road.
