"Alright, if there's a chance, I'll talk to Uncle.”
Xu Chen sighed for a long time and could only agree.
In fact, he did not want to see the clever and cute Little Wu walk down the path of darkness. The path of an empress was too difficult and dark. It was better to hide under his protection and be a happy little lady for the rest of her life.
"Brother Chen, you agree?"
Little Wu was still crying a second ago, but when he saw Xu Chen nod, he immediately broke into a smile. He leaned into Xu Chen's arms and said softly,
"I knew it. Chen gege also likes little Wu!”
If she didn't understand in her heart that with Little Wu's pride, no matter how much she liked him, she definitely wouldn't pester him like this.
However, at the age of ten, she was already so intelligent, just like a little monster. It was no wonder that she could become the empress of a generation.
"What if your father doesn't agree?”
Xu Chen hugged Little Wu. At this moment, he didn't have any other thoughts. He just quietly hugged her and said with a smile,
"I'm an orphan without parents now, and I don't have any family background or wealth. I'm just a barefooted man. With your father's taste, I'm afraid he won't like me, right?”
Even the most down-and-out aristocrats would not look up to the sons of commoners. However, the current samurai was not a down-and-out aristocrat. He was still alive and was the founding hero of the Li Tang Dynasty!
If he married his daughter off to a peasant without any in-laws, he would probably become a joke in the entire aristocratic circle!
"That won't happen. My father isn't from a noble family. Speaking of which, he's the lowest merchant in the world! He only looks at talent and ability. As long as Brother Chen shows half of your talent, you will definitely be able to convince my father!”
Xiao Wu didn't seem to be worried at all. He wiped his tears and his eyes turned into crescent moons. He explained with a smile,
"Besides, my father and Uncle Li were amazed by the design of your wool processing machine. They were all praising you as a genius of the world!”
What Xu Chen didn't expect was that in Xiao Wu's words, the opportunist Wu Shi was still considered a relatively open-minded parent. However, after thinking about it carefully, it made sense. Finding the youngest son of the State Duke might have some political capital, but it would definitely not last long. However, if he found a talented person, that might not be the case.
The imperial examinations were in full swing, and the country was recruiting talents. China was undergoing a transformation, and the aristocrats were slowly declining. What would replace him was a new group of bureaucrats.
In this way, if the children of the aristocrats were not talented, they could only sit and eat, and gradually wither away. On the other hand, talented people, even if they were just ordinary people, could also rise to the top and hold great power!
As a businessman, he had a keen sense of smell. This samurai should be aware of his environment, which was why he did such an open-minded thing.
"That's for the best. If he makes things difficult for me, I won't be happy.”
Xu Chen finished the bowl of porridge and joked.
"Of course not!"
Xiao Wu waved his little fist and played with Xu Chen for a while, then whispered to him. At this time, Xue Rengui had finished the remaining big bucket of porridge, bid farewell to Xu Chen, and went to Chang 'an.
He had to inform the peddler boss and bring his luggage back.
In the blink of an eye, it was already noon. The two of them hugged each other for a long time until someone suddenly pushed open the door and entered.
"This is the place. Little Wu, the one you mentioned…"
The thin warrior walked in and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him. The words that were about to come out of his mouth stopped.
Behind him, a Taoist priest dressed in green walked in. When he saw Little Wu and Xu Chen, a playful smile appeared in his eyes.
"Aiya, Dad, why didn't you tell me you were coming? Seriously!”
Xiao Wu blushed and quickly stood up from Xu Chen's arms. He ran to Wu Shi Yao's side and acted coquettishly to cover up his embarrassment.
At this moment, Xu Chen was also at a loss and did not know what to say.
Was there anything more embarrassing than being intimate with his girlfriend and being bumped into by her father?
"Cough cough…You!"
Seeing this, Wu Shi Hui could only helplessly rub Xiao Wu's head and pretend not to see it.
It could be seen that the father-daughter pair had a good feeling. Just like what was recorded in the history books, before the death of the samurai, the treatment of Xiao Wu should not be too bad.
"He is the Brother Chen I told you about. He invented the wool processing machine!”
Xiao Wu quickly changed the topic to the main topic and pointed at Xu Chen.
At this moment, Wu Shi Huan and the Taoist priest in green finally focused their attention on Xu Chen. When they saw him, they were shocked, just like Yuchi Baolin and the others.
"This…why does this child look a little similar to Your Majesty?”
Wu Shi glanced at the Taoist priest in green and whispered.
"Yes, there is indeed some resemblance between the eyebrows, but…it should be just a coincidence, right?”
The Taoist priest nodded and said.
Wu Shi agreed with the Taoist priest in green. He also felt that it was just a coincidence. However, it was a coincidence. This first impression really surprised them. They couldn't help but think more highly of Xu Chen, a villager.‘'
It was also an advantage to look like Li Shiming!
"You are Xu Chen?"
Wu Shi looked at Xu Chen again and felt that this person was extraordinary.
Such an aura was probably not something that an ordinary person could possess, right?
"Hello uncle, hello Taoist priest, I am Xu Chen.”
Xu Chen bowed to Wu Shi and the Taoist priest in green in an appropriate manner.
He had learned a lot about Wu Shi Yao from Little Wu, but this Taoist priest piqued his curiosity.
Could this be the skilled craftsman who could create the wool processing machine? She didn't look like it!
"Ha, you're indeed a good-looking talent!"
The warrior praised him, then took out a roll of paper from his pocket and spread it out. He pointed at the Taoist priest beside him and introduced,
"This is the Imperial Historian, Cultivator Li Chunfeng! He looked at your wool processing machine and was shocked. He studied it all night last night. Look, these are the labels he gave.”
Looking at it, the design of the wool processing machine on the paper was indeed marked with dense words and numbers. Beside it, there were also some ideas about the construction of this machine.
However, Xu Chen did not look at the design seriously. Instead, he stared at Li Chunfeng's face with bright eyes.
Li Chunfeng! Great Tang's most awesome mathematician, Yi-ology expert, and astronomy expert, Li Chunfeng!
He actually invited this big shot?!
