Sun Aying took the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and the family members of the palace people from Chang'an to the military town settlement in the west of Liangzhou City.
The so-called military town settlement is actually a village gathering located next to the military camp.
Many family members of military sergeants, as well as some traders who came and went, settled in the settlement, and over time it became a lively village market.
More than 20 palace ladies from Chang'an, as the wives of Tang soldiers, caused an uproar as soon as they arrived at the village market.
Although these palace men are a little older, they are better at being well-educated and distinguished in temperament. Compared with the women in the military town, they are like a phoenix falling among crows.
Everyone in the village, men, women, old and young, dropped what they were doing and ran out to take a peek at the newly arrived woman.
Seeing the behavior and appearance of the palace people, the men were envious and the women felt ashamed.
And those Tang soldiers who were lucky enough to marry "Chang'an girls" became the focus of the entire village fair.
The residents in the town urged them to tell the details of how they got married. Some soldiers couldn't stand the questioning of their neighbors and friends, so they told them in detail what they had experienced in Chang'an.
The prosperity of Bachuan Market, the punishment of secret meetings with palace people, the magnanimous master, and Zhou Jun, for the sake of the life-long events of his soldiers, specially helped these palace people to be transformed into good deeds, and promised to find a way for the Tang army. Wife's promise...
When the residents of the town heard these words, they immediately sighed.
Zhou Jun was the supervisor of Hexi Hutong City and the governor of Wuwei County. People all heard of his name.
However, the biggest official the common people have ever seen is just the county magistrate. In their view, Zhou Jun, a high-ranking official with a well-known reputation, is naturally more strict in his conduct than the county magistrate.
However, in the words of these Tang soldiers who returned from Chang'an, Zhou Jun was humble and polite, considerate of his subordinates, and true to his word, which was completely different from their expectations.
In the evening, except for the soldiers on duty who stayed at the military camp, many other soldiers who had finished their training returned to the military town settlement.
When they heard that someone had married a wife in Chang'an City, the soldiers immediately became energetic and rushed to see the bride.
Among them, there is a pair of Tang Jun father and son.
The father's name is Wu Xianggu, who is over fifty years old, and his son's name is Wu Kedi, who has just turned twenty. People in the military town also call the father and son Lao Wu and Xiao Wu.
Lao Wu returned home, took off his leather armor, drank some water, and waited for a long time. When his son didn't come back, he couldn't help but said to himself: "I asked him to get some wine, why hasn't he come back yet?"
In desperation, Lao Wu had no choice but to leave his house and look for his son.
When he arrived at the wine shop, Lao Wu asked the shopkeeper, who smiled and said to him: "You don't know yet? Your son is probably going to see the bride."
When Lao Wu heard this, he sneered: "Bride? This village has not seen a bride for many years. How can there be a young lady willing to marry in?"
The store owner didn't explain much. He just pointed the direction to Lao Wu and asked him to see it by himself.
Lao Wu was dubious and walked along the streets of the town until he came to the courtyard where the store was.
Before he even got close, Lao Wu saw a group of soldiers and villagers clinging to the low wall, looking inside at something. Among them was his son.
Lao Wu, who was furious, quickly stepped forward, grabbed the back of his son's neck, and said angrily: "I asked you to go drink, what are you doing here?!"
Xiao Wu kept moaning in pain, and struggled to break away from Lao Wu. Then he pointed to the people around him and said, "Everyone is here to see the bride."
Lao Wu was stunned when he heard this, then walked to the gate of Geyuan and took a look inside.
In the courtyard inside the gate, there were many tables with food and drinks. Many prominent people in the village were at the banquet. The person hosting the banquet, whom Lao Wu knew, was Sun Aying.
Lao Wu heard that he was originally an illiterate orphan. Later, he fought bravely and was not afraid of death. He also liked reading. He was appreciated by the superiors and was sent to serve as a personal guard for the high officials in the court.
Looking inside the banquet, he saw a group of women with celestial appearance and temperament, sitting at the banquet in the back, making Lao Wu's eyes wide open.
When did so many fairy-like women come to the village market?
When Lao Wu was surprised, Sun Aying in the courtyard raised his glass and said: "Dear neighbors, as soldiers, we have benefited from the kindness of Zhou Jian, so that many brothers got wives. Because of guarding the master's house, plus
It is not convenient for the female family members to live in the military town, so we plan to move out of this courtyard and live in Liangzhou City. When we come back today, we have to pack up our belongings and leave here early tomorrow morning."
The guests seated at the table nodded in agreement.
Sun Aying added: "Although we have moved out of this place, we receive a lot of care from you on weekdays. If anything happens in the town, you can come and find us."
The guests thanked him again.
Sun Aying then drank the wine in the cup and asked his men to greet the guests.
He himself took a basket of candy cakes, went outside the courtyard, and distributed them to the soldiers and villagers standing outside the wall.
As Sun Aying distributed them, he said with a smile: "Let's all be happy. Come and be happy."
Lao Wu, who was standing aside, glanced at the banquet in the courtyard and then at Sun Aying outside the door, and he had a plan in mind.
Taking advantage of the lack of people, Lao Wu came to Sun Aying's side and said with a smile on his face: "Captain Sun."
Sun Aying turned around and saw Lao Wu, so he smiled and gave the latter two pieces of candy cake.
Lao Wu took the cake, thanked him quickly, and asked in a low voice: "I see there are about twenty brides, and I don't know which one is your good match?"
Sun Aying said with a smile: "I did not marry a wife during the trip to Chang'an."
Lao Wu was stunned: "Why doesn't Captain Sun get a wife?"
Sun Aying said: "My master's family is very kind to me. I should protect it with all my heart. I can put aside the matter of getting a wife. In fact, not only me, but also many brothers in the team have the same view, so
Neither of them are in a hurry to get a wife."
When Lao Wu heard this, he curled his lips and seemed to disagree with this approach.
After a while, Lao Wu asked Sun Aying again: "Captain Sun, are you short of manpower in your team? My son Wu Kedi is a good fighter, and he is obedient and does not cause trouble..."
Sun Aying said in embarrassment: "As a sixth-grade court official, the number of personal guards under his jurisdiction is limited. If you recruit troops privately, it will be over the limit. Moreover, if the soldiers in the army are mobilized to change the banner, it will also
An order from the Ministry of War is required."
Lao Wu was a little discouraged after hearing this, but he still said without giving up: "The four generations of the Wu family were all soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. They fought in Shuofang, Hexi, and Longyou. They fought in several places, including Tubo people, Turks, Tuyuhun people, Xi people, etc.
, have fought against each other... In my generation, the wife died early, and of the three parents and children, only the son was left to live alone. Now, Wu Kedi really can't marry a wife, and the Wu family is about to die."
Sun Aying sighed, patted Lao Wu's arm and said: "If there is a chance, Aying will definitely ask the master to transfer Xiao Wu."
Lao Wu knew in his heart that Sun Aying said this just to comfort him.
But at this point, Lao Wu had no other choice but to give thanks.
Seeing Sun Aying return to the hospital, Lao Wu walked up to Xiao Wu and said, "Go home."
Xiao Wu held a piece of candy cake, smiled happily after eating it, and said to Lao Wu, "Yeah, this cake is so sweet."
Lao Wu was angry, slapped Xiao Wu on the back of the head, and said in a deep voice: "I know how to eat all day long! I don't know when you will wake up and be able to marry a bride for the Wu family!"
