Gou Becomes a Boss in the Fairy World

Chapter 1461: Refining the Heart in the Mortal World (5)

"Mr. Wang, I'm so happy!"

Looking at the shrewd old lady in front of him and hearing her exaggerated tone, Wang Chen's eyes became a little weird.

This uninvited guest is a matchmaker, and she is known as the best matchmaker in Qing'an County and the best-selling matchmaker in the year.

Wang Chen really didn't expect that a matchmaker would actually come to his home.

Seeing that Wang Chen was indifferent to his words and did not respond at all, the matchmaker surnamed Wang was somewhat embarrassed.

But she was very thick-skinned and continued calmly: "Did you know? Foreign Minister Chen Fugui from the west of the city has chosen you and is willing to recruit you as his son-in-law. You will have endless blessings in the future!"

Wang Chen's expression became even weirder, and he couldn't help but ask: "You mean, his family wants me to be their son-in-law?"

"That's right!"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Mr. Chen is an only daughter. She has regarded her as the apple of her eye since she was a child. Naturally, she is reluctant to marry outside."

"Don't think it's not good to be a door-to-door son-in-law..."

She spoke eloquently: "Yuan Chen said that if you are willing to come to the door, he can give you two shops and a rice store. Moreover, the big house at home can accommodate dozens of people. If you give birth to a child in the future, it will only cost half of it." Changed surname."

"Only half!"

"With such conditions, countless people in the county want to come to your door, but Yuan Wai Chen has taken a fancy to you!"

This lady-in-law looked like "you've made a lot of money", which made Wang Chen couldn't help but laugh: "I can't bear such a good thing. You go back and tell Mr. Chen to thank him for his kindness."

Wang Po obviously didn't expect that she couldn't make Wang Chen hesitate for a moment with all her extravagant words and all her power of bewitching.

"Mr. Wang, this is..."

"please."

Wang Chen directly served tea to see the guest off, too lazy to continue chatting with him.

Mrs. Wang was disappointed and had no choice but to leave angrily, cursing when she went out.

As soon as the matchmaker left, Wang Chen put down his tea cup and said calmly: "Come in, what are you doing sneaking around outside?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yijian walked in with a face full of shame, bowed and saluted: "Teacher."

Wang Chen looked at his first student, smiled and said, "What do you want to say?"

The other party looked like he was hesitating to speak, obviously he was hiding something in his heart.

Chen Yijian swallowed his saliva and said quickly: "Teacher, please don't be fooled by that king's wife. Who doesn't know about Chen Fugui in the west of the city? His daughter is eight feet tall and has an eight-foot waist. She also likes to dance with guns. Great, people on the road call him Chen Bachi!"

Chen Bachi!

Wang Chen had never heard of it before: "Is it so powerful?"

"Um."

Chen Yijian nodded vigorously: "Chen Bachi is already twenty-five this year, and he is not married yet!"

It is indeed a sinkhole!

Wang Chen smiled and said: "I know, I won't be fooled, just go and do your work."

Now the school prepares a lunch for students every day. Rice, grains, oil, and salt are purchased by Wang Chen. Students bring their own pickles, bacon, etc., and then they make them for themselves.

Wang Chen asked Chen Yijian to take charge of this matter, and except for the regular purchase of grain and oil, he ignored the rest.

And Chen Yijian completely lived up to his expectations. This poor and humble disciple with the spirit of a snake and python quickly showed his talent and managed all the disciples in an orderly manner.

Since he can now eat a full meal every day, and even eat a little meat from time to time, in the past six months, this half-grown boy has grown taller and is no longer the skinny person he was before!

??????55.??????

Although he was still poor, he had changed into a set of coarse clothes, and he seemed to have a somewhat high-spirited masculinity.

"yes."

Chen Yijian bowed respectfully to Wang Chen and then left.

Wang Chen looked at his leaving back and touched his chin thoughtfully.

There are dragons and snakes hidden in the grass. Among the fifty students currently enrolled in Wang's School, Chen Yijian is undoubtedly the most outstanding.

He has a very strong learning ability. He was the first to complete "The Thousand Character Classic" and the first to master the basic martial arts taught by Wang Chen. He has a strong will and a persevering temperament, and he also works hardest in his daily studies.

Although the dozens of other students were far inferior, a few stood out.

What's interesting is that these students are second only to Wang Chen in their belief in Chen Yijian, and they have become the former's younger brothers!

Wang Chen did not interfere in any way.

But what he didn't expect was that after he rejected Po Wang, Po Zhang and Po Sun came one after another to act as matchmakers.

Wang Chen was a little confused, how could he suddenly become a popular fried chicken in the blind date market while teaching and educating people in a very low-key manner in Tongluo Alley?

It wasn't until the innkeeper who was familiar with him came to visit that Wang Chen knew the whole story.

It turned out that just half a month ago, the magistrate of Qing'an County, Yu Heqian, somehow found out about Wang Chen's affairs, and then praised him as "a scholar setting an example".

Many people thought that Wang Chen had gained the favor of the county magistrate, and that he might have the opportunity to join the government as an official, so he would naturally become a potential stock.

The most important thing is that Wang Chen is not married yet, and he is still an outsider with no relatives. He is also a young scholar who has opened a private school in the city. Even if he is a bit prodigal, he has proved to be quite wealthy.

With such conditions, many civilians in the county have been beaten down.

It’s normal for matchmakers to come in droves.

"Mr. Wang, if you don't mind, I can help you find a suitable family."

The innkeeper sincerely advised: "You have been in Qing'an County for more than a year, and it is time to start a family."

What he was worried about was that Wang Chen would reject all these matchmakers, which would easily lead to gossip and even rumors.

Wang Chen thought about it, nodded and said: "Then I'll trouble you, the shopkeeper."

The innkeeper smiled and said: "No trouble, not at all, but I don't know what you want, sir?"

Wang Chen said casually: "Just gentle and virtuous."

To refine your heart in the mortal world, you need to live an ordinary life. If you don't get married and have children, it is definitely not complete.

Before returning to the mountain and sea world, Wang Chen had already prepared himself mentally.

The innkeeper took the task of matchmaking and said goodbye excitedly.

Wang Chen took the fishing rod and net bag, then rode his big black donkey to go fishing in the Qingshui River outside the city.

In the past year, he would go fishing in the Qingshui River every afternoon regardless of rain or shine.

No matter how big or small the fish are, they are brought back and kept in a large tank, and they are given to students as snacks the next day.

River fish are not as good as pork, beef or mutton, but they are also meat and have a lot of nutrition.

The donkey's hooves clattered as it stepped on the bluestone slabs all the way out of the city gate, took the official road and turned into a small path, and soon arrived at the riverside.

At this time, the autumn weather was clear and the breeze was not dry. Willows were swaying on both sides of the river bank. Wang Chen chose a place to sit, set a nest, put bait on it, and cast a rod to fish.

Just waiting for the fish to bite.
