Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

Chapter 440 On the way back to the village (2)

Upon hearing this, Father Li sat up straight instantly, his eyes fell on Yan Zheng's face without hesitation, and he was a little surprised: he didn't expect that his kid was so lucky. Not only did he have a good relationship with the soon-to-be-transferred County Magistrate Chen, he also knew the soon-to-be-inaugurated new County Magistrate, and it seemed that they had a close relationship!

This luck...

Father Li couldn't help but secretly glance at Yan Yiyi from the corner of his eyes. He was even more satisfied with her and wanted to worship her as his ancestor!

The villagers were right - Aye's wife is a lucky charm for her husband!

When I think of how unlucky A Ye was in the past, it’s simply unbearable to watch.

Since I got married, not only have I stopped being unlucky, but I’ve even had great luck…

Hey! It's really the blessing of our ancestors!

Yan Zheng suddenly met Father Li's gaze, his eyes filled with shock but also with heat and excitement, as if he was being stared at like a prey, and he couldn't help but shiver.

They didn't avoid him, and talked about what happened in Sand City, Guyang County, and the village. He was bored, so he listened for a while, and thought about it carefully after thinking about what they had just said...

Yan Zheng shook his head repeatedly, waving his hands in denial: "No, no, no, Uncle Li, you misunderstood, I am not the new magistrate."

Yan Yiyi and Xin Ye looked at Yan Zheng who was denying it so strongly, and were quite speechless. Was it necessary to deny it so strongly? It was as if admitting it would cost him his life.

When Father Li saw that the children did not deny what he said, he knew that he had indeed misunderstood. He laughed awkwardly and his eyes fell on Hua Murong, and he asked in surprise: "Could it be Ah Rong?"

There were only three men in the carriage, which eliminated one wrong answer. The boy from my family was not qualified to take part in the imperial examination, so it definitely wasn't him.

Then, Hua Murong is the only answer left.

Hua Murong smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's me."

Father Li looked at him in a daze, vaguely remembering that Aye and the others seemed to have mentioned who was going to take the imperial examination. It turned out to be Arong!

"Did Arong pass the imperial examination?"

It's no wonder that he had such a guess. Normally, the top scholar would stay in the capital to work. In addition, there were no students from Guyang County who could take part in the imperial examination. The people of Guyang County didn't pay much attention to who would be the top scholar this year.

Not to mention Father Li, he is not from that circle at all, so what does it have to do with him who becomes the top scholar?

As for the court and officialdom, he only paid attention to whether there was a sudden change in the current emperor, or the replacement of officials such as the magistrate of Guyang County and the prefect of Liangguan County.

"Uncle Li, I passed the imperial examination and became a first-class Jinshi."

"Jinshi..." Father Li realized it belatedly, his eyes widened, not sure if he had misheard, and asked tentatively, "The top scorer?"

Hua Murong nodded, still calm and composed.

Father Li secretly took a deep breath. His son A Ye was not just lucky, he had fallen into the arms of God's own daughter!

As soon as he went to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law and gained their recognition, his brother-in-law became the new top scholar and applied to be transferred to the small county of Guyang County as a county magistrate, becoming a big backer of A Ye's wife = A Ye's backer.

From now on, not many people in Guyang County would dare to embarrass Aye, and he would not be afraid of his own shop being targeted by the new county magistrate. In this way, he would not have to plan to assassinate the "new county magistrate" who might have his eyes on his shop.

Father Li was shocked and gave up the assassination plan. He smiled sincerely and said, "Congratulations, Rong. When you get home, Uncle Li will make you something delicious. What do you want to eat?"

Hua Murong was not polite and ordered the food openly: "I want to eat the fried sweet potato balls made by Uncle Li."

I haven't eaten sweet potatoes for a while, and I miss them.
