At two o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Shuhua got up on time.
She was used to sleeping for only an hour at noon. When the time came, she would wake up automatically even without an alarm clock.
Because the work in the kindergarten in the afternoon was much easier than in the morning, Yan Shuhua got up, dressed, washed up, and then picked up her mobile phone to check today's hot news.
After reading today's top trending searches, a strange number from Guangxi Province suddenly called. Yan Shuhua answered the call and said, "Hello!"
A slightly younger male voice came over: "Hello, Principal Yan, my name is Jiang Feng, I'm from Guangxi Province, I'm at the door of your kindergarten now, I have something to talk to you about, would it be convenient for you to come out?"
Yan Shuhua felt strange, but she responded, "Okay, Mr. Jiang, please wait for a moment. I'll be out right away."
Jiang Feng said: "Well, let's do this for now, we'll talk when we meet."
Yan Shuhua tidied her clothes and went downstairs to the kindergarten entrance.
The security guard opened the door and asked with a smile, "Is the director going out?"
Yan Shuhua smiled and said, "Well, go out for a while."
As soon as I walked out the door, a young and handsome man came up to me and greeted me, "Hello, Director Yan!"
Yan Shuhua also greeted him: "Hello, Mr. Jiang!"
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Director Yan, in order not to waste your time, I will get straight to the point."
Yan Shuhua nodded and said, "Well, Mr. Jiang, you can say whatever you want."
Jiang Feng said seriously: "Director Yan, the thing is, I am a professional matchmaker. I came here this time on someone's behalf to act as a matchmaker for you, Director Yan."
"ah?"
Yan Shuhua was extremely surprised to hear this. She had thought of many possibilities when she came down, but nine out of ten of them were related to work. She never expected that the other party was actually a matchmaker who came to introduce her to someone new.
Jiang Feng was not surprised at her reaction and continued, "The person I want to introduce to you is also an acquaintance of yours. His daughter and your son have been classmates from kindergarten to elementary school for a full ten years."
After hearing this, Yan Shuhua had a vague answer in her mind. After all, there were only a few classmates who could stay in the same class from kindergarten to elementary school. If gender was excluded, the number of remaining would be even smaller.
"Matchmaker Jiang, I wonder which one you are talking about?"
"His name is Gu Qingping, and his daughter's name is Gu Jiaqi. I'm sure Director Yan is familiar with them, right?"
It was indeed him. Yan Shuhua immediately thought of the elegant middle-aged man. She had worked in the kindergarten for many years and had come into contact with thousands of parents, but not many of them left a deep impression on her, and Gu Qingping was obviously one of them.
As far as she knew, Gu Qingping should be a professor at a 985 university. She had the impression that his wife was also very pretty. She wondered when they divorced?
When did he fall in love with her?
In an instant, Yan Shuhua had a lot of thoughts in her mind.
"Matchmaker Jiang, this news comes a little suddenly, please allow me to take a break."
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "I understand. If you have anything you want to know, you can ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
Yan Shuhua knew that this was not the time to be reserved, so she immediately asked, "I want to know when Professor Gu got divorced?"
Jiang Feng replied, "Professor Gu's marriage to his ex-wife broke down a long time ago, but they kept delaying the divorce for the sake of their children. They officially divorced six years ago."
Yan Shuhua suddenly realized, "No wonder. Before the third grade, Gu Jiaqi's academic performance was among the best in the class. At that time, I often asked my son to learn from her. But after the third grade, Gu Jiaqi's academic performance suddenly plummeted. At that time, I felt strange. Now I know that it was affected by her parents' divorce."
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "This is the harm caused by a wrong marriage. In the end, it is the children who suffer."
Yan Shuhua sighed and said sympathetically, "Yes, a wrong marriage really hurts both you and yourself. I didn't choose the right person at the beginning, and my son suffered a lot because of me."
"Yes, choosing the right person in marriage is really important."
At this point, Jiang Feng smiled slightly: "Principal Yan, I can't compare to you and Professor Gu in education, but when it comes to marriage, I think I still have a say.
Since I started working as a matchmaker last year, I have directly and indirectly brought together thousands of couples, and every couple is now living a very happy life. In my opinion, you and Professor Gu are a perfect match in every aspect, and you will definitely live a happy life together as you form a new family."
Yan Shuhua was somewhat moved by what she heard, but she also said with some concerns: "Matchmaker Jiang, if I remarry at my age, I will not only have to consider whether I will be happy, but also whether my children will be happy."
Jiang Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Director Yan, I have already considered this for you. Your son and Professor Gu's daughter have been classmates for ten years, so they are very familiar with each other.
After my persuasion, Professor Gu's daughter is happy about your marriage with her father. Your son should be able to accept this new family easily with some persuasion.
So you don’t have to worry about that.”
Yan Shuhua originally had a good impression of Professor Gu. After all, professors are highly educated people, and Professor Gu is handsome and gentle, which is the type she likes.
In the past, the man already had a wife, so Yan Shuhua naturally had no such thoughts. But now that she knew he had been divorced for six years and was interested in her, and that Jiang Feng, the matchmaker, had considered every aspect for her, she stopped being pretentious.
"Okay, Matchmaker Jiang, you've convinced me!"
"Director Yan, how about I arrange for you to have a simple meal together tonight?"
"Yes, sure."
…
evening.
A private room in a restaurant.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Yan Shuhua looked at Gu Jiaqi and said, "Qiqi, I have heard about your situation. You need to study harder and catch up with your current study progress as soon as possible so that you can get into a good university."
Gu Jiaqi nodded and said, "I understand, Headmistress."
Gu Qingping looked at his daughter who had become well-behaved and obedient, as well as the charming woman in front of him. He was filled with gratitude towards Jiang Feng. He raised his glass and said, "Master Jiang, I won't say much to thank you. I'll toast you a glass."
Jiang Feng raised his glass and clinked it with his. "Professor Gu, you're too polite."
This meal was simple yet not simple.
It was simple because the two parties just sat together to eat a meal and did not talk about feelings at all. It was not simple because both parties understood that having this meal today represented a certain meaning.
Because Gu Jiaqi was present, the meal did not take too long and was over in about an hour.
The next day, Gu Qingping sent Jiang Feng a lot of gifts, all of which were paintings and calligraphy by famous artists, as well as elegant items such as pens, inks, paper and inkstones of considerable origin, with a value between 300,000 and 400,000 yuan. For a professor, this was considered a large sum of money.
In the next two days, Jiang Feng took time to meet with the children of high-ranking officials, led by Mr. Jiang, to build relationships with them, and then flew back to the provincial capital with the gifts sent by Professor Gu.
It is worth mentioning that the relationship between Professor Gu and Principal Yan progressed very quickly.
Originally, the two of them had left a very good impression on each other several years ago. Jiang Feng's matchmaking was like breaking through a layer of window paper, allowing their relationship to quickly heat up.
The next day after returning to the provincial capital, Jiang Feng received a call from Wei Xuefeng.
"Master Jiang, my younger cousin's funeral has been handled. What remains is to negotiate compensation with the family of the person who jumped from the building. My uncle and aunt are already eager to find my older cousin. I wonder when it would be convenient for you, Master Jiang, to set off?" Wei Xuefeng asked.
Jiang Feng responded directly: "Brother Feng, it's not easy for your uncle and aunt to endure for so many days. Now that your younger cousin's funeral has been handled, I will rush to Chuanjiang City to meet up with you and set out to look for your older cousin tomorrow morning."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Master Jiang."
"You're welcome. I'll hang up now. See you later."
"Yeah, see you later."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Feng checked the flights and high-speed trains to Chuanjiang City and found that taking the high-speed train was faster than taking the plane. So he said hello to his girlfriend, packed his clothes, and headed straight to the train station.
…
Chuanjiang City.
Wei Xuefeng put away his phone and said to his uncle and aunt who were looking forward to it, "Master Jiang, please come here immediately. We can set out to look for my older cousin tomorrow morning."
"That's great!" Yang Zhengke and Qin Xueqin, who seemed to have aged several years in just a few days, were cheered up when they heard this.
Yang Zhengke immediately ordered: "Xueqin, call XX Hotel right away and book a suite for Master Jiang, and also book a private room for dinner. Just arrange the food and drinks."
Qin Xueqin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Then she walked aside and started making a phone call.
Yang Zhengke looked at his sister's family of three and said gratefully, "Sister, brother-in-law, Xiaofeng, thank you for your hard work these past few days."
Mother Wei said, "We are all family, why be polite?"
Father Wei said, "Zhengke, with Master Jiang's help, the chances of finding Xiaolong are very high. Xiaolong is only two years younger than my Xiaofeng, so he is 32 years old this year. I wonder if he has married yet. If he married early, you might have several grandchildren."
Hearing this, Yang Zhengke smiled for the first time in a few days, "That would be great!"
Seeing his uncle smile, Wei Xuefeng also smiled and interrupted, "Yes, uncle, maybe you have been a grandfather for several years and you don't even know it."
These words made Yang Zhengke full of anticipation, and he couldn't wait to set out to find his eldest son.
…
6:30 pm.
XX box of XX Hotel.
Jiang Feng met Wei Xuefeng's uncle Yang Zhengke and aunt Qin Xueqin.
The two had just experienced the pain of losing their son, and the grief was obvious at a glance. Jiang Feng, who was sympathetic, greeted them and said directly: "Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang, according to my calculations, it is certain that Brother Yang is currently in the north, but it is not clear which province he is in. Let's fly to Shandong Province first tomorrow, and then do a second calculation when we arrive in Shandong Province. We should be able to lock in the specific province."
Yang Zhengke nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, I'll follow your instructions, Master Jiang. Please take a seat."
Wei Xuefeng pulled a chair for Jiang Feng, Wei's mother poured tea for Jiang Feng, Wei's father handed Jiang Feng a cigarette, Qin Xueqin asked the waiter to serve the food, and Yang Zhengke opened a bottle of aged Moutai and poured wine for Jiang Feng. The scene was like entertaining a big leader.
Since it was ordered in advance, I gave the order and the waiter brought the food quickly.
Next, everyone clinked glasses and chatted while eating.
After they had enough wine and food, Jiang Feng said, "Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang, thank you for your hospitality. Let's go back and rest early today. We will take the earliest flight to Shandong Province tomorrow."
Yang Zhengke nodded, handed the hotel room card to Jiang Feng, and said, "Master Jiang, you have worked hard today. We have booked a room for you here. You should rest early."
Jiang Feng did not refuse and took the room card. They exchanged a few polite words before going to bed.
…
The next day.
After breakfast, Jiang Feng and others took the earliest flight to the provincial capital of Shandong Province.
In addition to Yang Zhengke and his wife, the three members of the Wei family also came along.
It was 11:45 when the group arrived at the provincial capital of Shandong Province.
Yang Zhengke asked: "Master Jiang, it's already noon, shall we find a place to eat first?"
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Okay, then let's just find a noodle fast food restaurant or something and have a simple meal. I also need to borrow a place to do the secondary calculation."
Naturally, everyone said nothing when they heard this, and soon they appeared at a beef noodle restaurant.
After everyone ordered a bowl of the signature beef noodles, Jiang Feng asked Wei Xuefeng to pour a small half cup of water, and then said to Yang Zhengke: "Uncle Yang, please drop a drop of blood in it."
While speaking, he handed Yang Zhengke a needle.
Yang Zhengke had no idea how Master Jiang calculated it, but when he heard that he wanted his blood, he thought it was normal. He took the needle and pricked the middle finger of his left hand without hesitation, then squeezed a drop of blood into the cup.
Jiang Feng took the cup and shook it to make the blood evenly distributed. Then he dipped his finger in the blood, wrote the word "dragon" on the table, and began to calculate with his fingers.
The three members of the Wei family and the Yang couple all held their breath and looked at Jiang Feng without blinking. This kind of magical calculation was the first time they had seen it, and they had to watch it even if they didn't understand it.
Fortunately, they filled up the table and it was so packed that Jiang Feng's calculations did not attract anyone else's attention.
About two or three minutes later, Jiang Feng took out a tissue and wiped the blood off the table.
Seeing this, the three members of the Wei family and the Yang couple all knew that Jiang Feng had the answer in his mind, and they all looked at him expectantly.
Jiang Feng did not keep them in suspense and announced the answer directly: "It has been calculated. The person is in Hebei Province. The specific location will be calculated for the third time after we arrive in Hebei Province."
Yang Zhengke and his wife were very excited after hearing this. If they could lock the location in Hebei Province after two calculations, then they should be able to lock it in a certain city after three calculations, right?
After several such calculations, the targeted area became smaller and smaller, and the probability of finding his eldest son became higher and higher.
The three members of the Wei family were equally excited. They had always known that Master Jiang was powerful, but they had never expected him to be so powerful. Although they had not found the person yet, they were all full of confidence in Master Jiang at this time.
