Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 495 - 495 486

?Chapter 495: 486 Chapter 495: 486 After discussing business, the marriage prospects of Chen Ayu were brought up. There were quite a few families showing interest in Ayu, but he wasn’t in a hurry and wanted to get his main store’s affairs in order first. However, recently, he received a marriage proposal on behalf of an official family’s daughter, who, although was only a concubine’s child, had a father who was a third-ranked commander in the Left Guard Battalion outskirts of Capital City. The girl, whose surname was He, was also quite beautiful.

Apparently, Mr. He and his wife had seen Chen Ayu at the Hongyun Hot Pot Restaurant and found him tall and handsome, with a gentle demeanor and appropriate behavior. They felt that with the right kind of support, he had the potential to achieve great things. Considering this, Mr. He and his wife desired to marry their daughter to Chen Ayu. Furthermore, they stated that substantial dowry that included silver for Chen Ayu to establish his own household would be given, and they would even help in attracting customers…

Both Chen Ayu and Yang Mingyuan vaguely knew that Mr. He was related by marriage to Chen Afu’s biological father and that their relationship was not harmonious. Chen Ayu was sensible enough to know that the He family was interested not just in himself but his connections with The Chus as well. Therefore, he didn’t immediately accept, saying he needed to consider it.

In the recent counter-insurgency military operation, some troops from the Left Guard Battalion, which Mr. He was responsible for, were drafted. However, the one leading the troops was not Mr. He, but his deputy. Mr. He realized that he was being marginalized. Being marginalized was only the first step, his position was so precarious that it was uncertain if he would be alive after the accounts were settled for the autumn. Hence, he had been living in a state of constant fear these days.
