Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

It\'s just a two-story building with an added sunshade on top.

Surrounded by a semi-circular, ultra-high wall, there is a ten-year-old tree in the yard.

The old tree is about four or five meters tall, flourishing with dense branches and leaves.

In winter, it drops countless leafy branches.

Under the old tree, a large pavilion has been built.

Lying on it is quite comfortable.

Of course, having the old tree in your own yard comes with its troubles.

That is, one often has to sweep the ground because leaves naturally fall when the wind blows or it rains.

Resulting in the yard being littered everywhere.

In front of the courtyard, there is a small lake teeming with wild fish.

Chen Jianjun has built a rather nice fishing platform on its bank.

Having nothing to do, he sometimes fishes there, and life is quite comfortable.

After returning home and distributing money,

Peng Ying cooked a reunion meal at home and specifically invited grandparents over.

The family could only get together towards the end of the year.

The food was plentiful, and the topics were lively.

The grandparents talked about some changes at home, mainly that people from the Old Chen family were now quite respected when they went out.

Another matter,

was that their third uncle\'s son, Chen Bufan, had very low intelligence; a 25-year-old man with only the intellect of a child.

The third uncle and third aunt were now trying to arrange a marriage for him in the village.

It was an arrangement that would have been difficult to succeed, but who would have known that Chen Bufan now had a wealthy cousin.

Quite a few people were still somewhat interested,

hoping that by marrying their daughter to him, they could get closer to his cousin.

And then move the whole family to Capital City to develop.

It must be said, the idea was quite good.

Of course, there were some sensible people who weren\'t keen on marrying their daughters to someone with intellectual disabilities.

Although Chen Bufan was never called an idiot,

his IQ was apparent, and finding a wife of normal intelligence for him would likely be difficult to maintain.

Finding one that wasn\'t normal, his third uncle and aunt would be unhappy,

since he was the only child in the family.

The family was still counting on him to have a normal grandson.

Chen Pingsheng didn\'t like to meddle in such affairs, so he just inquired a bit.

Additionally, there were a few matters in the village, one of them being the election of the village chief.

Many people hoped his dad would run.

After all, the previous one, Jiang Dewang, was really detestable.

Whenever there was a small project in the village or talk of road construction,

he would funnel a one-million project down to just three hundred thousand.

If Chen Jianjun were to become the village chief, the situation would be completely different,

since his family\'s conditions were clear to see, and the little engineering money of the village wouldn\'t even match what they could donate.

So now, most people in the village hoped that Chen Jianjun would become the village chief here.

His grandfather had been the village chief before and had had a good reputation,

so now it was his dad\'s turn.

Chen Pingsheng thought that being the village chief was a good idea, since his dad didn\'t have much to do anyway.

Grandparents were still very healthy,

and hadn\'t visited a major hospital once in a year.

For elderly people to maintain such health was already quite remarkable.

This year, Wangcai Village hadn\'t changed much overall.

Only, finding a wife seemed to be getting harder and harder.

Many of the village\'s of-age young people were still single.

Continuing like this, there would likely be more and more bachelors in the future.

Mainly because as soon as those girls from the village return, those coming to propose a marriage, if not lining up, are still quite numerous,

forming a stark contrast with the increasing number of bachelors.

Unmarried women are really becoming rarer, and even divorced women have become prized,

like the family in front of them. The woman, not particularly attractive and a divorcee with a five- or six-year-old child,

still demanded a dowry of 128,000 yuan when marrying a man on his first marriage.

This was unimaginable for the older generation.

Before, a divorced woman would be lucky to have any man interested, let alone demand a dowry.

Those with children, if brought home, would usually be the laughingstock of the village.

Now it\'s changed, marrying as a first-time bride and straight away asking for tens of thousands in dowry.

Not a single piece of the three golds was missing.

The world has truly changed.

It\'s uncertain what will happen in the future.

When the grandfather mentioned these things, he too was quite agitated.

Mainly because among his grandchildren, there were also several who had reached the right age but were still single.

Matchmaking became a common topic in the village,

and to marry successfully, one would have to empty the wallets of two generations, and even be willing to entangle the third.

Chen Qi was utterly astonished to hear it.

She had not returned for a year; had the situation at home already reached this state?

Frankly, it was because there were no chances to make money in the countryside, absolutely not enough to keep the young people.

The old folks staying in the countryside could only farm the land, raise some fish,

and scraping in twenty or thirty thousand a year was already considered very good.

As for their Wangcai Village, the land was left half-untended, no one farming,

And no one discussing contracts.

The situation in the countryside was increasingly difficult.

At this time, everyone\'s hope for Chen Jianjun to become the village chief was understandable.

"Ah~" Chen An\'an, who had been quiet the whole time, now touched his little curly hair, "It looks like it\'s time for me to make a grand entrance."

"An entrance for what?"

Chen Pingsheng smacked her lightly, "What on earth are you thinking about every day?"

"Dad, I want to hold a martial arts conference in the village, from five to twelve years old, I can fight ten kids."

Chen An\'an had full confidence in her \'Fatty Praying Mantis\' abilities.
