Chapter 178: Misfortune

In the past, Chen Sheng's mind was full of one thought. That is to prosper the country and destroy the enemy.

Wave your troops to conquer the weak and strengthen your own side. At least occupy Jingzhou, bring 100,000 armor, and then fight with Cao Ying to destroy the enemy.

For this purpose, Chen Sheng abandoned too much.

A year ago, Chen Sheng was a general. But for more than a year, Chen Sheng didn't have any entertainment and didn't get close to women.

After becoming the lord, in order to maintain a good reputation, he also freed up money, raised more soldiers, lived in a simple mansion, and ate a simple meal.

Everything is carried out towards the purpose of rejuvenating the country and destroying hatred. Therefore, Chen Sheng is like a clockwork machine, and he can't stop.

I don't know why, but today I suddenly got the hang of it. After opening the mind, it was out of control.

I really remembered that I was first and foremost a person, and I should have a life, a family, a wife and children. Subsequently, it is to conquer the world, prosper the country, and destroy the enemy.

So, Chen Sheng got Mrs. Zou's idea and wanted to invite this dignified and virtuous lady to find a good wife for herself.

For this purpose, Chen Sheng sent Zhou Cang, not only to prepare a sumptuous meal, but also to invite Mrs. Zou. Just now, Zhou Cang also said that there is still an hour before the meal.

An hour of time, usually when Chen Sheng handled official business or personally trained the army, passed in the blink of an eye, but today seems to be a particularly long time.

"Being a man, once you open your mind, you can't control it." In the end, Chen Sheng smiled bitterly, started to walk outside the hall, and decided to take a walk to make time pass faster.

"Today's general is really eccentric. But it feels good, and I look a lot more angry than usual. Zhou Cang felt that today's Chen Sheng was strange, but he felt inexplicably happy.

The usual Chen Sheng made Zhou Cang feel that he was a wise Ming Duke and a general. Able to make good decisions, enterprising, and simple, not extravagant.

He spent all his energy to increase his wealth, just to raise more soldiers.

It's really the master of troubled times.

However, that kind of Chen Sheng is wise and great, and he is brilliant. But it seems that it will only make people admire, not get close. And today's Chen Sheng gave him a different feeling.

There is a sense of intimacy.

"Looking at Ming Gong's appearance as if he was spending his life, he looked a little inexplicably happy." Zhou Cang was still cool on the surface, walking with Chen Sheng, but in his heart, he felt that Chen Sheng had a sense of joy today.

"Da-da-da-da."

Finally, the hard time passed. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, it was almost time for dinner. A sound of footsteps sounded, and a guard came to Chen Sheng, and Zhou Cang reported in front of him: "General, Mrs. Zou has gone out." ”

"Okay, open the middle door to greet." Chen Sheng suddenly perked up when he heard this, and waved his hand.

Opening the middle door is the etiquette to welcome distinguished guests. Although the Zou family is a woman, they are elders, and they are definitely worthy of this etiquette.

"No."

The guard said yes and went to open the middle door. Chen Sheng, Zhou Cang is on the back heel. Soon after, Chen Sheng and Zhou Cang arrived outside the middle gate.

Chen Sheng stood in the middle of the door, ready to greet the Zou family, the Wu family, and so on.

"Squeak, squeak." Soon after, two carriages, escorted by the escort entourage, arrived in front of the General's Palace. When they came to the front and back of the door, the two carriages stopped.

Two beautiful women and three and a half sons stepped out of the carriage.

One of the two beautiful women is dignified and graceful. The other is a little light in the beauty. It was the Zou family, but the Wu family.

Those three and a half sons are naturally the three brothers of Zhang Quan.

"Meet Madame, sister-in-law." When Chen Sheng saw the two, he immediately greeted them and saluted. Zhou Cang also followed on the side, and his entourage Chen Sheng saluted.

Seeing Chen Sheng, Zou smiled. The Wu family was more indifferent and distant. Zhang Quan and the other three and a half children were full of joy on their faces.

"My own family, what kind of etiquette do you practice?" Zou stepped forward and gently helped Chen Sheng up, very close.

"Uncle." Wu returned the salute to Chen Sheng.

"Uncle." Zhang Quan's three boys followed behind Wu and saluted Chen Sheng.

"Sister-in-law has tormented me." Chen Sheng hurriedly said, and then smiled at Zhang Quan's three boys: "Nephews don't have to be polite. ”

Chen Sheng also understands Wu's coldness. Although he said that he was good to the Wu family and his three nephews. But after all, he inherited Zhang Xiu's power, and this sister-in-law still has a bigger pimple in her heart.

After dealing with the Wu family, Chen Sheng turned around and said to the Zou family with a smile: "The sages said that the etiquette should not be abolished. Even if it is a family, this etiquette is indispensable. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Sheng slapped his forehead again and said with a smile: "Speaking of etiquette, I have hung my wife at this door again." After saying a word, Chen Sheng smiled and said falsely: "Madame, please." ”

"Hmm."

Zou smiled and nodded obediently. led Wu, Zhang Quan and others into it. Chen Sheng and Zhou Cang followed behind.

After entering the General's Mansion, Chen Sheng introduced the Zou family, the Wu family and others into the hall. Because he invited the Zou family to dine together, Chen Sheng would occasionally do it.

Therefore, everything is very calm.

Chen Sheng invited Zou to sit down, Chen Sheng, Wu sat with him, Zhang Quan and other three boys sat with him.

Immediately, Chen Sheng ordered the maid to eat, drank a glass of wine with the Zou family and the Wu family, and asked about the homework of the three Zhang Quan brothers and the like.

It's pretty much the same as a family feast. Normally, this time is about the same. Today, Chen Sheng's drunkard does not mean to drink, naturally it is slightly different.

So, Chen Sheng smiled and said to the three brothers Zhang Quan: "Uncle still has something to do here, the three of you go out to play first." ”

"No." Because Chen Sheng was usually good to the three brothers, the three brothers liked Chen Sheng a lot. After listening to Chen Sheng's words, he said a word without saying a word, turned around and walked out.

"Sheng'er is very different today, it seems that he has a request for us?" Zou has a delicate heart, and when he saw Chen Sheng's strange behavior, he immediately noticed it, and said with a smile.

Even the Wu family pricked up their ears, do you have a request for them? General Chen Shengtang, the lord of one side, what can trouble them.

"I really let Madame guess correctly." Chen Sheng said with a smile.

"It's all a family, can I help you? Go ahead. Zou said with a smile. This statement is completely sincere.

Zou woman's family, Zhang's widow. At present, Zhang's family does not have the support of a strong man. is completely supported by Chen Sheng, and it can be said that he is dependent on Chen Sheng to survive.

It is reasonable that Zou should be responsible for taking care of Chen Sheng. Moreover, when he fought Cao Ying for the first time, Chen Sheng also saved Zou's life.

Zou is grateful for this. She is not Wu, a person who does not know gratitude.

"Then I'll say it." Chen Shengben was still a little blushing, after all, he wanted to marry a wife, and when he said it to his face, he naturally blushed a little.

But seeing Zou's sincere smile, Chen Sheng became much calmer. After a pause, Chen Sheng said bluntly: "But I feel older, but my home is deserted. I want to ask my wife to call the shots and find a wife's room. ”

The Zou family, the Wu family was stunned when they heard it, and then the Wu family was silent, and Chen Sheng didn't ask her for help.

After hearing this, Zou felt ashamed. Said to Chen Sheng in shame: "Sheng'er, your parents are dead, not only that, but you live in Nanyang, except for me, an elder, but no one is in charge." And Sheng'er, you should have married a wife a long time ago, but I was negligent, I'm really ashamed. ”

"Don't worry, Sheng'er, this matter is on me." Because of shame, Zou decided to take care of everything, said.

"Thank you, ma'am." Chen Shengxi said.

Speaking of which, Chen Sheng's request has already been spoken. And Zou also counted, and he felt sorry for Chen Sheng, and he was thinking about how to find a candidate.

Therefore, Zou wanted to go back and think about it immediately. So, the Zou family took his leave, and even left with the Wu family and Zhang Quan.

Chen Sheng sent Zou to the door, personally watched Zou get into the carriage, and then returned to the mansion.

"I believe that it won't be long before this place will not look like a barracks, but like a nice home." After sending off the Zou family, Chen Sheng was in a good mood.

Looking at the guards, it was full of murderous atmosphere, like a military camp and more like a home mansion. Suddenly, there was great hope for the future. However, Chen Sheng immediately noticed that this place seemed to be a little shabby.

"No matter how much you save it, when it comes time to get married, you can't have no place to live." Thinking of this, Chen Sheng turned back to Zhou Cang and said, "Go, find a way to repair the mansion, don't be beautiful, just be able to live in it." Buy some more furniture and come back. In addition, the main room in the backyard was also vacated. ”

It was a family banquet when we had dinner just now, so Zhou Cang was no longer there, and I didn't hear that Chen Sheng asked the Zou family to find a wife.

In the past, Chen Sheng slept casually, or even directly in the study, but there was no distinction between the backyard, the front yard, the main room, and the auxiliary room. Now that Chen Sheng said this, combined with Chen Sheng's vitality today, Zhou Cang suddenly thought faintly. Immediately overjoyed, and said loudly: "Ming Gong rest assured, the mansion will be repaired to be durable." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhou Cang immediately left happily.

"Rugged and durable." Chen Sheng smiled.

But he didn't care, with a vision for the future, Chen Sheng went back to the mansion and slept in the study again.

"The study, I didn't pay attention to it before, but now I feel quite sad." In the study, Chen Sheng put on his underwear, covered the quilt, looked at the surrounding environment, and felt a little desolate.

For the future, I am also looking forward to and looking forward to it.

In addition, Chen Sheng also pondered. Although the war in Xuzhou is about to break out. But with Zou's handling ability, this may be able to get a candidate for a future wife before going on the expedition and so on.

But it's a pity that although Chen Sheng has opened his mind, the change in the situation has not given Chen Sheng the green light because of this. Chen Sheng didn't wait and knew who his future wife would be.

But it was interrupted by an accident.
