Chapter 172 Chen Xue's Letter
That night, under Jiang Chen's fierce attack, Qin Ruyue finally accepted the title of good sister.
However, the commotion that night made the other girls feel itchy and unable to sleep.
The next morning, at the gate of Jinchuan County.
Xue Bin bid farewell to Xue Linglong and Chen Xue with reluctance on his face.
How he wished he could capture Chen Xue right away and give her a good beating.
But, this is destined to be impossible!
On the way out, no one noticed that one of Chen Xue's guards left the team and headed towards Zhoujia Village!
At noon, Jiang Chen was working at home, making clothes diligently.
Ever since he recently experienced the joy of small clothes, Jiang Chen has started making them like crazy.
He wanted to make all the small clothes from his previous life.
But just when Jiang Chen was forgetting to eat and sleep, Old Wu knocked on the door.
"Village chief, someone is looking for you at the entrance of the village!"
"Ok?"
Jiang Chen frowned slightly when he heard this: "Someone is looking for me at the entrance of the village? Who is it?"
"It seems to be the bodyguard of Miss Chen Xue yesterday. He said he has a letter for you!" Old Wu said truthfully.
"Chen Xue's bodyguard? And you gave me the letter?"
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up!
Could it be that this Chen Xue already has a crush on him?!
if it is like this……
Jiang Chen hurriedly followed Old Wu to the village entrance.
When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Jiang Chen indeed saw Chen Xue's guards.
"You are... Miss Chen Xue's bodyguard?"
"You're looking for me, what's wrong?"
Jiang Chen looked at the guard in confusion and asked.
"Sir, I am giving you this letter on behalf of my young lady. Please accept it!" the guard said respectfully.
"This...Okay! Give it to me!"
Jiang Chen frowned, then took the letter from the guard.
After opening the letter, Jiang Chen's lips curled up into a smile.
……
The content of the letter was similar to what Jiang Chen had expected. Chen Xue was very interested in the story Jiang Chen told.
She hoped to keep in touch with Jiang Chen through letters so that she could get the subsequent story content.
Jiang Chen naturally would not refuse this.
If the fact that he killed Xue Bin is exposed in the future and accidentally known by Xue Wenyan, then this county magistrate may very likely become his helper!
What's more, Chen Xue is so beautiful, if I can completely win her over...
"Okay, go back and tell your young lady that I agree!" Jiang Chen said to the guard with a smile on his face.
"Yes! Thank you, Mr. Jiang!"
After hearing Jiang Chen's words, the guard left respectfully.
After the guards left, Jiang Chen went back to make small clothes.
However, at this time, Sun Yaozu had already returned to Luzhou County at full speed!
The first thing Sun Yaozu did when he returned home was to find his father!
"Father, I want to be a filial and honest official!"
"What!?"
When Sun Qiu heard what his son said, he was stunned!
Given his son’s bad reputation in Luzhou County, he still wants to recommend him as a filial and honest official?
Even if his family was the richest merchant in Luzhou County, he wouldn't dare to do this!
After all, if his son became an official, it might be a disaster, not a blessing, for him!
"Son, you...didn't you eat something wrong?"
"How can we recommend filial and honest people?"
"Wouldn't it be better for you to stay at home and inherit the family business?" Sun Qiu advised earnestly.
"Father, I...I cannot marry Chen Xue to inherit the family business!"
"Then Xue Wenyan's son is going to marry Chen Xue just to be selected as a filial and honest official!" Sun Yaozu said angrily.
……
"This……"
When Sun Qiu heard this, he looked helpless.
He naturally knew that Chen Guang asked his daughter to meet Xue Wenyan's daughter.
But this matter has not been concluded yet, and Chen Guang was just being polite.
Why is Sun Yaozu in such a hurry?
"Father! I don't care. Either you recommend me a filial and honest official, or... don't let that Xue Bin recommend me a filial and honest official!"
Sun Yaozu said with a firm face.
When Sun Qiu heard what Sun Yaozu said, he was completely helpless.
If he didn't have only this one son, he would definitely beat this bastard to death!
"Okay, okay! I'll find a way to prevent Xue Bin from being successfully recommended as a filial and honest official. Is that okay?" Sun Qiu said helplessly.
"Thank you father!"
After getting the answer he wanted, Sun Yaozu left happily.
The reason why he clamored to be recommended as a filial and honest official was that he wanted his father to agree to him and stop Xue Bin from being recommended.
He knew that if he directly said that he wanted to stop Xue Bin from being selected as a filial and honest official, his father would probably not agree, so...
"Brother! You're back!?"
Just when Sun Yaozu was excited, a silver bell-like sound rang out.
"Brother, Chen Xue wasn't taken away by someone, right?"
A girl wearing a red dress and with a cool and charming look came to Sun Yaozu's side.
This girl seems to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, but she has a very seductive look, especially her pair of phoenix eyes. Coupled with her oval face, she gives people the feeling of a vixen!
And this beauty is none other than Sun Yaozu's half-sister, Sun Ruotong.
Compared to Sun Yaozu, Sun Ruotong is even more feared by people in the mansion and the county town!
"Little sister, don't worry! Your sister-in-law will not be able to escape!"
Sun Yaozu said with a firm look on his face.
He just didn't believe that Chen Xue would still like Xue Bin after he failed in the selection for filial and honest official position!
……
On the other hand, Xue Wenyan had already started to arrange for Xue Bin to be recommended as a filial and honest official.
The selection of filial and honest people means that local officials select talented and virtuous children from good families and report them to the Ministry of Personnel of the imperial court.
After the Ministry of Personnel verifies that there are no problems, these people can enter the court to serve as officials.
However, these people usually started out as minor officials.
The position that Xue Wenyan arranged for Xue Bin was the legal advisor of Jinchuan County.
This position can be regarded as the second in command in the county.
If he had not reached the position of county magistrate, it would have been impossible for him to be arranged here directly.
But Xue Wenyan didn't know that his recommendation of Xue Bin as a filial and honest official was doomed to fail this time!
Because Sun Qiu is already using his connections to disrupt this matter!
At this time, in Zuixian Tower, the beautiful woman in red skirt had also finished reading the information about Jiang Chen.
He married three widows and took in many disabled old soldiers.
Set up a workshop to benefit the village.
This Jiang Chen... looks a little unusual!
Moreover, when Jiang Chen went to the capital, he had contact with Marquis Jian'an!
This... is even more worthy of attention!
Thinking of this, the beautiful woman couldn't help but raise a charming smile.
If this Jiang Chen is really a talent, they can consider winning him over to their side!
After all, they are short of talent nowadays.
At this time, Jiang Chen in Zhoujia Village didn't know any of this.
He just came back from the honeycomb briquettes workshop, and now there is a lot of honeycomb briquettes in stock!
The next step is to start planning in Jinchuan County!
Thinking about the upcoming battle with the Sun family, Jiang Chen was really looking forward to it!
But just when Jiang Chen was full of expectations, someone Jiang Chen didn't expect came to the entrance of Zhoujia Village!
