After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Jiang Chen's head buzzed and his vision went dark. He was so angry that he wanted to strangle Fang Cheng to death. He must have done it on purpose.

What kind of hatred or grudge does he have that he is deliberately targeting me?

But now is not the time to argue with this bitch, Jiang Chen quickly explained: "Shanzhang, please listen to my explanation. Master Yuan and I have met a few times. We are from the same town. I just paid a visit according to etiquette, and I didn't mean to betray him."

Meng Qishan said kindly: "Don't be nervous. I am not a petty person. It is only right to pay a normal courtesy visit.

A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. Even if you really want to become his disciple, I, the headmaster, will only bless you and will not stop you."

After saying that, he patted his shoulder, looking nonchalant. In his heart, he really didn't care. Old man Yuan would not look down on people like him.

It's just that he doesn't like this person's style of playing with everyone, so Meng Qishan won't feel regretful if he really leaves.

Jiang Chen didn't know what to say. Fang Cheng was gloating, and the other students looked at him with dissatisfaction, as if they were traitors.

They also wanted to join Mr. Yuan when he was accepting disciples, after all, he was the deputy headmaster, but he looked down upon them. However, they were jealous that Jiang Chen could talk to Mr. Yuan.

Even though it was just a reply, it was a rare opportunity to meet him, as many people couldn't even get in the door.

Many students did not understand the origins of this Master Yuan. He was so arrogant that even the dean of the academy felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, as if such a person had suddenly appeared.

It was not until Fang Cheng went to inquire that he learned that Mr. Yuan's fame was gained ten years ago. It seemed that he had once been an official in Beijing. At that time, he defeated all the scholars and no one could disobey him.

Fortunately, Mr. Yuan was just trying to establish his authority. Later, he lived a semi-secluded life, opened a private school and spent his days leisurely. He was gradually forgotten.

Now that it’s making a comeback, how can people not be afraid?

The class was finally over. Jiang Chen's head was buzzing and the reply in his hand suddenly felt hot.

"Hey, classmate Jiang, you've climbed up the social ladder, but you're still studying with us? Isn't this too unfair for you?"

"That's right. He's almost become Mr. Yuan's best student. It would be a shame to waste his talent here."

"Tsk tsk, you are really good at scheming. You were coveting Miss Jin before, and now you want to get close to Mr. Yuan and betray the academy. You are almost bringing shame to the scholars."

Jiang Chen said nothing. He couldn't win an argument with so many people.

Xie Jin protected him and argued with everyone: "What nonsense are you talking about? Brother Jiang didn't go to curry favor with anyone, it was just a normal visit. The headmaster didn't care, so why are you making a fuss!"

The students said, "Xie Jin, you really think of yourself as Jiang Chen's dog. After all, he is a young master from a wealthy family. What's so good about Jiang Chen that you have to defend him like this?"

"That's right. I heard that he spent a lot of your money. You gave him money and protected him at the same time. Could it be that you have some hidden agenda?"

"You are so shameless! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tell the headmaster!"

Xie Jin was so angry, how could they think like that? He and Brother Jiang were like-minded friends!

I just couldn't bear to see Brother Jiang being dragged down by his family background and his talent being overshadowed, so I helped as much as I could. How could it be as bad as they said?

They are clearly jealous.

Xie Jin persuaded himself and said to Jiang Chen, "Let's not argue with them. Those who are innocent will be innocent. We have a clear conscience for what happened."

"Let's go."

Jiang Chen felt tired and clenched his hand to reply. This was also his chance. If the gentleman really accepted it, these people would not be a concern.

When he passes the imperial examination, he will have plenty of opportunities to take revenge.

Fang Cheng watched coldly. This Jiang Chen did have some qualities and was able to keep his composure. If he wasn't a black-hearted person, he could be considered a talent.

When the time agreed with Mr. Yuan arrived, Jiang Chen went to Yuan's house with gifts.

Jiang Chen was surprised to see such a grand house. If the gentleman was so rich, why did he live in a small town before?

Before he could think about it, the doorman led him to the living room to wait. Soon, Mr. Yuan came over, followed by Shen Huai'en.

However, Jiang Chen did not recognize him and thought he was the master's disciple, or perhaps his future senior brother.

He immediately stood up and saluted: "Mr. Yuan, I am Jiang Chen, your student, meet you. Do you still remember me?"

Master Yuan sat down and waved his hand, saying, "I remember. How could I not remember? You are one of the few scholars in this town. How could anyone in this town not know you?

The whole town is waiting for you to pass the imperial examination, to bring honor to them and to protect your neighbors, so you must work hard. "

Jiang Chen used to feel proud when people said this to him, but now he felt his cheeks getting hot and he felt embarrassed.

"It's the love that the villagers have for Jiang Chen. How could it be so easy to pass the imperial examination?"

"Isn't it easy? I thought you had a good chance of passing the imperial examination. Your whole village supports you and lends you money to pay off your debts. It's really rare."

Jiang Chen felt something was not right at this moment. How come Mr. Yuan knew all these things?

But he had to bite the bullet and said, "It is the kindness of the villagers that has given me this. I am ashamed."

"You should really feel ashamed. You have studied for so many years, but you have forgotten the basic principles of life. People in the county town don't understand you, Jiang Chen, but I have lived in the town for so many years, how could I not understand?

You probably don't know that when Butcher Shen saved you, he even borrowed money from me. Unfortunately, the farmer and the snake were a living thing, and his daughter, whom he was most worried about, was still bullied by you. "

Jiang Chen's face turned pale instantly. He should not have come. He knew everything about Master Yuan. He had no secrets from him and could not make excuses.

"Sir, I did make a mistake. I have divorced Shen and have nothing to do with her anymore. I think I have let Shen down."

"I am sorry in the first place. What do you mean by forget it? Mr. Jiang, didn't that petty old fellow Meng Qishan tell you about my temper?

I hate ungrateful people the most. I scold you out of kindness. Otherwise, I would just pass a message to Meng Qishan and tell him that you can forget about having a good life with him.

I met you to let you know that I have watched Nan Zhi grow up since she was a child. No matter how many faults she has, she saved your life and supported your studies. You cannot let her down.

You haven't even won the first prize in the imperial examination, but you've already abandoned your wife. Your future is doomed to fail."

Jiang Chen's heart sank. Was he going to end his chance of taking the imperial examination?

Why?

But Jiang Chen didn't dare to ask these questions, nor did he dare to show any dissatisfaction. He felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known that Master Yuan would protect Shen so much, he should not have divorced.

It’s also strange, why is Master Yuan so good to the fat and ugly Shen?

"See you off, Mr. Jiang, take care of yourself."

Shen Huai'en personally saw him out: "Jiang Xiucai, please come in."

Jiang Chen walked out in a daze, forgetting to say goodbye to his teacher. The series of blows were hard for him to accept. He had been studying smoothly, so how could so many unexpected changes suddenly happen?
