Chapter 129 The Palace of the General Protecting the Nation
Chapter 129 The Palace of the Protector General
Chen Xun's Chenji Supermarket has been doing very well since it opened. The things she sells are really good, and they are very popular whether they are food or household goods.
It's just that the refresh of her space supermarket is relatively slow, so the business hours of Chenji Supermarket have never been so regular. In short, they are open whenever the goods are available.
Time passed quickly. On the 21st of the twelfth lunar month, Chen Xun sent people to send New Year's gifts to Chenjiacun and a lot of New Year's gifts to her adoptive parents.
Chenjiacun was also very surprised to receive something from Chen Xun. Sure enough, the daughter they raised was a good child. Even her biological parents took her home and still remembered them.
Of course, they ignored their biological daughter Chen Ruowei. After all, she had never met her relatives in Chenjiacun, and she had not sent even a few words. They just treated her as if they no longer had this daughter.
Even though I feel sad when I think about it, there is nothing I can do about it. Is it possible that they can come to Chen Ruowei to ask her not to forget her biological parents and other relatives?
It is enough for Chen Yun to care about them so much.
When Chen Xun sent New Year's gifts to Chenjiacun, she also did not forget to send New Year's gifts to Pingyang Houfu. After all, that was also her natal family.
The Marquis of Pingyang gave Chen Xun a New Year's gift, and of course she had to give it as a daughter. Some of the New Year's gifts Chen Xun gave her were taken out from the Space Supermarket, and some were things she bought in the market.
"Today is the New Year, would you like to accompany me to visit my grandfather?" Yan Lizhou approached Chen Yu and said.
Yan Lizhou's grandfather, General Yun Yi, who protects the country, is also 64 years old this year. He returned to Anyang Tiannian in Chang'an seven years ago. Previously, just because Yan Lizhou, his grandson, needed some experience, he invited him to the border to take him a few years ago.
Year.
After Yan Lizhou gradually became familiar with things on the frontier, he applied to return to Chang'an. For the rest of the time, Yan Lizhou studied with his uncles.
The General Protector's Mansion is a family of generals, and most of the men in the family are in the military. Except for Concubine Yun, the legitimate daughter who entered the palace as a concubine, the other girls in the family are also married to generals.
General Yun Yi, who protects the country, is now in a state of prosperity. As he gets older, his body is not as strong as before. However, he does not get sick as he gets older like other generals. Although he is not as good as when he was young, he is still as healthy as he was when he was young.
Like ordinary old people, their bodies and bones are still in good shape.
Yun Yi had nine sons and four daughters, among whom the eldest son Yun Lang, the second son Yun Yang, the fourth son Yun Shi, and the youngest daughter Yun Xi, also known as Concubine Yun, were all born to Liu Qingya, the wife of the general who protected the country.
Now Yun Yi only has five sons alive, the rest have died in battle, two of them are legitimate sons.
Yunlang, the eldest son of the Protector General's Mansion, is forty-six years old. He is now the guard of Yuezhou City in Northern Xinjiang; the second oldest, Yunyang, is the guard of Xizhou, the third, Yun Sheng, is the guard of Tingzhou, and the fourth is Yunshi.
He is the general of Yezhou.
Chen Yun followed Yan Lizhou to the General Protector's Mansion and listened to Yan Lizhou's popular science. He blinked and said, "Is it possible that only my grandfather and grandmother are at home in the General Protector's Mansion now?"
Chen Yun was really surprised. After all, he heard that his uncles were basically stationed at the border, so there should be only two old people at home, right?
Yan Lizhou shook his head and said, "Aunts, eldest aunt and fourth aunt are all here, as well as cousins and nephews."
Although Yan Lizhou's uncles are all stationed at the border, not all of Yan Lizhou's cousins are at the border. There are also some who are here in Chang'an and other places.
Then there are the children of the generation of Yan Lizhou's cousins and nephews. Basically, they are all here at the General Protector's Mansion. The family is really not that deserted.
Chen Xun calculated in her mind that Yan Lizhou's uncle was forty-six this year. If he got married early, his eldest son would be thirty this year, so it shouldn't be unusual to have teenage children.
"The eldest nephew of your maternal grandfather's family should be eleven or twelve years old this year, right?" Chen Yu asked.
"Well, my eldest cousin's child is twelve years old this year." Yan Lizhou nodded.
His uncle got married early and had children early, so his eldest cousin is also thirty this year. Like his father, his eldest cousin, who married early and had children early, now has a twelve-year-old son.
"Speaking of which, Marquis Pingyang once served in the army of my grandfather." Yan Lizhou said to Chen Yu.
"Huh?" Chen Yun was a little surprised when he heard this, but if he thought about it carefully, it didn't seem to be anything surprising. After all, they were all in the army, so it didn't seem strange that they would be assigned to the same place.
"My grandfather is actually very happy to know that this king is marrying the granddaughter of Marquis Pingyang." Yan Lizhou said with a smile, but in fact he just said it nicely. His grandfather would be happy to see him marrying the daughter of a good family.
, not only refers to the daughter of Pingyang Houfu.
But Yan Lizhou could only listen to his grandfather saying that the Pingyang Marquis Mansion had a good family tradition. There were not many families that could allow his children to grow up peacefully and support all their children over the years.
As for the General Protector's Mansion, they are a family of generals. It is impossible for the men not to take concubines in order to continue their incestuous relationship. The more children the better, because they are afraid that one of them will die in the battlefield without any children.
Yun Yi himself had nine sons, but he lost four of them; Yan Lizhou's uncles also lost several sons.
Of course, if there are more women in the backyard, there will also be a lot of disputes. When Yunyi himself was young, when the aunts in the backyard were fighting, there were times when he attacked the heirs.
At that time, Yun Yi was still fighting outside, so how could he take care of the affairs at home? Yun Yi himself was also a big boss, or in other words, men in this era did not care about the affairs of the back house, and always thought that they could be left to their wives.
Already.
Because of this, the Protector General's Mansion had a lot of miscarriages and premature deaths, but it also had more concubines that could give birth, so the number of children was not too small.
Yun Yi is really envious of the fact that Pingyang Houfu has many children. Pingyanghoufu is worried that there are too many children and they have no place to live. But other families are envious of their family for having many children. Everyone wants to have more children and more blessings.
Chen Xun listened to Yan Lizhou's story about the Palace of the Protector General, and then thought about the only legitimate daughter who married into the royal family and became a concubine. She heard that the original Concubine Yun was very favored.
She didn't know exactly why Concubine Yun Gui entered the palace in the first place, but the General Protector's Palace was willing to let their daughter enter the palace. Maybe it was the thinking of most people in this era. They didn't think there was anything wrong with a man having too many women, so
They don't care what their son-in-law's backyard is like, they only care about the benefits of the marriage.
Chen Yu did not want to maliciously speculate about the General Protector's Mansion, but she knew that the people of the General Protector's Mansion guarded the border and defended against foreigners. However, this was not necessarily the case in the family.
Thinking of this, Chen Xun took a look at the man opposite him. He was handsome and very in line with her aesthetics, but unfortunately she didn't want to fall in love with him.
It doesn't matter that she's already married, but Chen Yun doesn't plan to fall in love. After all, her view on love is similar to that of modern times, and she is the only man who only accepts her.
She can't guarantee that Yan Lizhou is the only one. Even if there isn't one now, who knows if there will be one in the future?
Just rely on Prince Ning's Mansion to develop her career honestly. Men, be everywhere when you need her, and leave her alone when you don't.
