490 Passed the Test
Chu Jin touched his nose and thought to himself that he had to explain it to Su Chong properly. Otherwise, Su Chong would think that he was that kind of person in the future.
“That’s great. I’ll write to Teacher Lin and tell them the good news.”
Madam Wen was very happy. She happily entered the bedroom to get a pen and paper to write a letter.
Chu Leizhen asked, “Tell me, since no one taught him about these things and he has never seen such a place before, can he really control himself?”
Chu Leizhen was surprised by Su Chong’s good self-control. At the same time, he was a little curious and asked Chu Jin to tell him in detail.
Madam Wen took out a pen and paper and listened as she wrote.
Chu Jin told them the details. Reality proved that Su Chong was someone worth entrusting to. His understanding was very good. He rejected the women in the brothel, but he did not despise them or look down on them.
After saying that, Chu Jin asked, “Father, mother, can I tell Su Chong the truth?”
Chu Leizhen pondered for a moment. “It doesn’t matter if you tell him or not.”
Madam Wen said softly, “Tell us. When Teacher Lin asked us for help, he already had an answer in his heart. He’s just waiting for the last push. Now that the good news has been sent back, there’s no need to wait for that push.”
What needed to be tested had been tested. Lin Pingsheng should not hesitate after getting the answer.
From the letter, it could be seen that the Lin family actually liked Su Chong. Now that this worry was gone, what else was there to think about? Marriage, regardless of age, might not be good. When everything was ready, there was no need to hesitate.
Madam Wen smiled and said, “Looks like we’ll have a wedding banquet to attend soon.”
Chu Leizhen also smiled. He was happy as long as his wife was happy.
Chu Jin heaved a sigh of relief and returned to his room to rest. He had drunk a lot today. Although he was sober, his body was still very uncomfortable. Now that the mission was completed, he could sleep peacefully.

Su Chong sent Qi Xingfeng home, and Father Qi and Mother Qi came over.
“This child is too outrageous. Why is he so drunk?”
Mother Qi felt a little helpless.
Su Chong smiled and said, “Aunt, Xingfeng drank with me. Speaking of which, it’s my fault.”
Mother Qi smiled. “Then I have to lecture him even more. He accompanied you to drink, but he got drunk himself before you got drunk. How can he be like this?”
Mother Qi smiled as she sized up Su Chong, wanting to see what was on his mind.
“Aunt, I’ll go back first.”
Su Chong greeted her politely and went home.
Father Qi and Mother Qi sent him out together. After Su Chong walked away, Father Qi said in a deep voice, “Give that kid some hangover soup.”
Mother Qi nodded. The couple cooperated effectively.
Qi Xingfeng woke up very quickly after being fed some hangover soup. The moment he woke up, he saw his family sitting around his bed. He was shocked. “Father, mother, great-grandfather, Xingzhi, why are you all looking at me?”
With so many heads, it looked very scary. In his confusion, he even forgot the rules of the agreement.
General Qi gave Qi Xingfeng a smack on the head and asked loudly, “You still have the cheek to ask? Tell me the truth.”
Qi Xingfeng woke up from the pain and remembered the agreement. His face quickly turned red. Because the content was too complicated, he really couldn’t explain it clearly in a few words.
General Qi saw that his face was red but he couldn’t say anything. He couldn’t wait any longer and said, “Just say it. Don’t hold it in anymore. At most, we’ll postpone the reward for a few more days.”
In the past, he was worried about his great-grandson’s loose tongue. Now, it was annoying to look at him when he can’t say much.
Qi Xingfeng looked at his anxious family and suddenly laughed. He touched his head and told them everything.
Everyone listened quietly. Only their expressions changed from complicated to shocked to calm.
After saying that, Qi Xingfeng sighed helplessly. “That’s what happened. I couldn’t not cooperate, so I simply got myself drunk. I don’t know if Cousin passed the test, but I guess he must have passed the test to send me home at this time. After all, if he didn’t pass the test, he should still be at Yingyue Restaurant.”
Qi Xingfeng voiced his speculations. He was no longer as impulsive as before. He could calm down and think about many things.
Once he calmed down and thought about it, he could more or less guess the result of this matter.
The Qi family was silent.
Qi Xingzhi said softly, “Ahem, what if Aunt doesn’t agree? Lin Yaoyao is almost ten years older than Cousin.”
It was really too much, nearly ten years.
Father Qi nodded. “It’s indeed too much. Why does this child like her?”
Su Chong was outstanding in both looks and talent. It wasn’t that Lin Yaoyao wasn’t good, but the age difference was really too great.
Mother Qi snorted. “She’s only nine years older. What’s the issue? You men can marry someone ten, twenty, and thirty years younger than you, but can’t we women marry someone eight or ten years younger than us? Lin Yaoyao is much older than Ah Chong, but he likes her and is even willing to wait for her for ten years. This proves that Lin Yaoyao is very good, enough for Ah Chong to wait for her willingly.”
Lin Pingsheng was once the third scorer in the national examinations. However, he was more old-fashioned and his mind was not that sharp. Later on, something happened to his daughter, so he simply resigned and left the capital.
In the capital, she had long forgotten about him. If it was not because of Su Chong, she would not have remembered this person.
“That makes sense. Although Lin Yaoyao is older, she’s not an old woman. She has rich experience and knowledge. If Chong can marry her, their child will probably be very smart in the future. The Lin family is smart. Back then, the third scorer Lin charmed a large number of women in the capital. Unfortunately, he was already married at that time.”
General Qi stroked his beard. In his memory, he still vaguely remembered Lin Pingsheng’s appearance.
Which woman wouldn’t like a gentle, modest, and handsome man?
“Grandfather, Cousin and her husband don’t know yet.”
Father Qi touched his nose and said.
General Qi smiled. “They’ll know soon. Just watch. It won’t be long.”
If it really worked, the sooner the better.

Su Chong returned home, washed up, and went back to his room to sleep.
At night, he was woken up by Su Xiaolu for dinner. Su Xiaolu gave him a hangover pill.
During the meal, Su Sanlang said to Su Hua, “Hua, the Sun family should be entering the capital soon. After they enter the capital, go take a look when you’re free and see if there’s anything they need help with.”
The Sun family sent a letter not long ago. The letter said that their family would set off for the capital and set a date for Su Hua and Sun Baoqian to get married.
Thinking that it had been a while since he received the letter and that it was almost time, Su Sanlang reminded Su Hua.
