The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"Boy, it's getting dark, where should we stay tonight?" Li Shimin asked unhappily.

For dozens of miles, from Chang'an City to here, it was already dark.

Fortunately, it's still summer and it's not cold at night.

Otherwise, Empress Changsun would definitely not be able to bear it.

"Brother Zhao, all of us have helped tidy up your house. You can move in right away."

"These nobles have no place to rest. If they don't mind, they will stay with us."

The middle-aged villager smiled and talked to several people.

"Zhao Chen, aunt is hungry." Queen Changsun said to Zhao Chen.

Several people originally thought of having dinner at Zhao Chen's tavern at noon, but who would have thought that Zhao Chen would go out.

We only ate some sweets in the car, but everyone was already hungry.

If anyone else said this to Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen would definitely not buy it.

But when Empress Changsun spoke, it was naturally different.

"Don't worry, aunt. Let's walk a little further and I'll make some fresh dishes for aunt." Zhao Chen showed a warm smile.

"Uncle Liu, please send some tomatoes and eggs to my house." Zhao Chen turned back and said to the villager who just spoke.

"Don't worry, Brother Zhao. Knowing that you are coming back today, everyone has already prepared everything."

"If you hadn't known that you couldn't get used to our craftsmanship, the villagers would have cooked it for you long ago." The middle-aged villager said with a smile.

"What did Uncle Liu say? If it weren't for everyone's care when we were young, Uncle Fu and I would have starved to death." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

The middle-aged villager scratched his head and didn't know how to answer Zhao Chen's words.

He had no choice but to lead the way and lead everyone back to the village.

"Zhao Chen, let's go, my aunt also wants to see the old house at home." Empress Changsun pulled Zhao Chen and walked slowly in front.

The dirt roads in the countryside are naturally bumpy.

Queen Changsun and Zhao Chen walked side by side.

With every step she took, Empress Changsun felt a pain in her heart.

For sixteen years, Zhao Chen lived in such an environment. \u003c

br\u003e

Zhao Chen also said just now that without the help of the villagers, he and Uncle Fu would have starved to death.

This was not a day he dared to experience.

What's more, he also has a more serious qi disease than himself.

Looking back at Zhao Chen, who had bright eyes, Queen Changsun sighed softly in her heart.

"Zhao Chen, have you ever complained about your situation in these years?" Queen Changsun asked leisurely.

Li Shimin, who was following behind, hesitated for a moment, then slowly followed.

"Fortunately, except for the occasional gas attack, everything is not that uncomfortable."

"The folks are very kind to me, and I have Uncle Fu as my companion. Although I am poor, I am also happy." Zhao Chen said lightly.

Queen Changsun remained silent. She only thought it was Zhao Chen comforting herself.

Li Shimin glanced at the dried cow dung under his feet and felt uncomfortable for a long time.

…

"Brother Zhao is back!"

Many people gathered outside the old house of Zhao Chen's family.

They are all villagers in this village.

When he heard that Zhao Chen was back, he immediately rushed over.

"Brother Zhao, you are finally back. The villagers have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Brother Zhao seems to have grown a lot taller and more handsome. I don't know which girl will be lucky enough to marry Brother Zhao in the future."

"Brother Zhao is a handsome young man from ten miles and eight villages. If Brother Zhao goes to Chang'an, the matchmakers who come every day will probably level the threshold of his family."

"Brother Zhao, are you hungry? This is a craft I learned from Uncle Fu before. It's your favorite osmanthus cake. You might like it if you try it."

Before Zhao Chen could say anything, the villagers started talking about it.

Zhao Chen couldn't find a chance to interrupt.

"I said

Don't make any noise. Brother Zhao has brought his friends over, so don't shock them. "Uncle Liu shouted.

Only then did everyone look at Li Shimin and others.

Especially Queen Changsun beside Zhao Chen surprised them even more.

"Brother Zhao, you don't have enough room in your house. If you need a room, I will spare the room and leave it with you. I will go to the woodshed to deal with it all night."

Some villagers shouted to Zhao Chen.

It's not like a wealthy family, so there's no firewood shed.

Just grab some clothes and lie down under a tree in the leeward direction.

"Thank you uncles, aunts and uncles. It's getting late. Let's go back first. I can squeeze in wherever I want." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

This is also the reason why he does not return to his hometown easily. .??.??

The villagers were so enthusiastic towards him that he was a little overwhelmed.

"That's right. Brother Zhao is weak and has been riding in the car all afternoon. He must be sleepy."

"With that, we'll take our leave now."

"If necessary, Brother Zhao, you can't be polite to everyone." Uncle Liu and Zhao Chen said.

After a busy day, everyone is actually tired.

We have to work in the fields tomorrow, so we can't do it without rest.

After saying goodbye to the villagers, it became quiet outside the house.

…

"I didn't expect that you, Mr. Zhao, have quite a high prestige here. I see that the villagers who just came here look at you with respect." Sitting down in the yard, Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen curiously. .

In his heart, he became increasingly curious about Zhao Chen.

How could a young boy command such respect from these villagers?

"Just treat people with sincerity." Zhao Chen said, then got up and went to the kitchen.

Everyone has been hungry all day. If we don't eat something, we will really starve to death.

Uncle Fu is old and his eyes are different from those of young people. There is only candlelight in the kitchen. Zhao Chen is worried about him.

Hit.

"Your Majesty, this child Zhao Chen looks like a prince." Seeing Zhao Chen enter, Queen Changsun said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded.

Zhao Chen had surprised him several times.

Although the village is small, it can be seen.

Even if the county magistrate has been here for ten thousand years, he has never been greeted by so many people.

Especially at night.

"Although this boy is young, he can be so convincing. With a little training, he will become a great person."

"Let's see tomorrow. If it's true as that boy Zhao Chen said, I will cultivate some power for Zhao Chen." Li Shimin said in a low voice.

…

Kitchen.

Zhao Chen sat alone on a small stool, washing the dishes sent by the villagers with the help of dim light.

Although these dishes have been carefully cleaned, Zhao Chen is still worried that insects will crawl through them later.

After all, this house has not been lived in for some days.

The villagers also helped with the cleaning, but after all, it was not popular and easily attracted some insects and ants.

"Let me help you." Li Ruoshuang's voice sounded.

Zhao Chen looked up and saw Li Ruoshuang standing in front of him with a straight face and a long sword in his hand.

This woman never leaves her hand with a sword.

"You can also cook?" Zhao Chen asked casually.

"No, but I can't let you be busy here alone." Li Ruoshuang said with a cold voice.

She is tough and tough, but she is not ignorant of the world.

"Wash the tomatoes for me." Zhao Chen nodded and motioned to Li Ruoshuang to wash the tomatoes next to him.

Li Ruoshuang knelt down and took the tomatoes from the basket.

"What is this and why have I never seen it before?" Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen curiously.

She always felt that the person in front of her had a secret.

Just like the fried pork with chili that she had eaten, it made people want to eat it again.
