All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Yue Hongying and Zhuang Chenhui had not known each other for long, so naturally her feelings for him were not very deep. After a month, she slowly let go of these feelings.

Seeing that his daughter had regained her former liveliness, Yue Wenxuan felt that it was time for him to worry about his daughter's marriage.

He specifically asked his wife Zeng Danling to go out and deliver a box of fresh crabs to Ms. Cao, who retired from the Women's Federation, and Ms. Guo, who retired from the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and invited the two to visit his home this Sunday.

The two elder sisters are retired cadres and usually have nothing to do at home. When someone invites them to visit, Yue Wenxuan, with whom she has always had a good relationship, of course would not refuse and agreed readily.

Yue Wenxuan knew that the two elder sisters loved dumplings stuffed with leeks and shrimp, so he prepared them in advance. The last time they came to his house, the shrimps they used were soaked dried shrimps, which were a little bit worse in taste. This time he planned to use fresh shrimps, which would definitely taste better.

The two elder sisters had nothing to do at home, so they left home early and arrived at the grain compound before nine o'clock.

The main purpose of inviting the two older sisters to his home today was to introduce potential partners to his daughter Yue Hongying and niece Zeng Xianggui. Yue Wenxuan deliberately kept them both at home and did not let them go out.

The door was open. As soon as the two elder sisters arrived at the door, Yue Wenxuan quickly stood up to greet them and said:
"You're here, but why are you bringing anything with you? Don't do this again next time, or I won't dare invite you to my house again."

"You sent us such a big box of crabs. If we don't bring some gift in return, I'm afraid you won't feed us." Sister Cao said.

Sister Guo is Zeng Danling's elder and the matchmaker for the couple. They have always been very close and are not shy at all. "If you feel bad about it, when we leave, you can give each of us a fish, preferably a bigger one."

"Yes, yes, that's what I thought. I just wonder if it's a coincidence that I came here today. Are there any fish in the fish tank at home?" Sister Cao also echoed.

In recent years, relevant departments have organized old cadres to go to other places for recuperation, and several people can always get together, and the relationship has become very harmonious. In addition, with Zeng Danling as a factor, they talk more casually.

Now is not the difficult period of the past two years. It is just a fish, which is nothing to them. Besides, they both know that Yue Wenxuan is an expert in fishing, and there are always live fish in the fish tank at home, so they are even more impolite.

After the two of them sat down, other people in the family came over to say hello.

Not to mention Zeng Danling, Yue Hongying has also met the two of them many times and they are very familiar with each other. Only Zeng Xianggui has never met them.

In the past few years, although the two older sisters have visited Yue Wenxuan's home many times, Zeng Xianggui has always been living on campus, so this is the first time they meet at home.

Asking the two older sisters to help introduce a partner to his niece was also one of Yue Wenxuan's main purposes today, so he focused on introducing his niece to the two older sisters.

Of course, it is not convenient to introduce my niece’s unhappy marriage in front of her. I can only find another opportunity to talk about it later.

Since the two older sisters are asking him to introduce a partner, nothing can be concealed about his niece's situation, otherwise it will only become a hidden danger. Yue Wenxuan will definitely not do that.

The two older sisters had plenty of time, and Yue Wenxuan was not in a hurry to talk about introducing a partner. It would not be too late to talk about it after dinner in the afternoon.

Yue Wenxuan made a pot of tea and sat around the table with the two old ladies, talking about the interesting things that happened in the sanatorium. Before they knew it, more than an hour had passed.

Zeng Danling saw that it was almost time and started to prepare the dumpling stuffing. The fragrance of leeks and the deliciousness of shrimps intertwined and filled the whole room. The smell of the stuffing aroused the appetite of the two elder sisters even though it was not yet noon.

Seeing this, Sister Cao and Sister Guo stood up and expressed their desire to join in making dumplings.

"Hey, you two are guests, so just sit down and we will take care of making the dumplings. There isn't much work to do, and we can eat in no time." Zeng Danling advised enthusiastically.

"That won't do. We'd be eating for free then. How can we just eat and not finish the meal?" Sister Cao said as she washed her hands, picked up the dumpling skins and fillings, and prepared to start making the dumplings.

Sister Guo was not to be outdone. She smiled and said to Zeng Danling, "We are experienced in making dumplings. You ask us to sit there and do nothing. Isn't this making us uncomfortable?"

Seeing how enthusiastic the two older sisters were, Zeng Danling no longer refused. She smiled and pulled them to the table. The family sat around the table and started making dumplings.

Yue Hongying and Zeng Xianggui also joined in. Although their skills were slightly inferior to those of the others, everyone enjoyed it. While Yue Hongying was making dumplings, she chatted with Cao Yi and Aunt Guo.

When they asked him questions, he would occasionally tell them some funny stories from school and work, which always made people laugh.

Zeng Xianggui sat next to Auntie Guo, listening to Auntie Guo telling stories about the past, and she realized more clearly that the little suffering she had experienced in the past was actually nothing. Compared with these old revolutionaries, their current lives were like soaking in a honey pot.

In everyone's skillful hands, the dumpling skins and fillings were turned into dumplings of various shapes. Before everyone had enough fun making dumplings, they were finished unknowingly.

It's already noon, so it's just the right time to start cooking dumplings.

The honeycomb coal stove in the corridor and the kerosene stove at home were turned on together, and two pots of dumplings were cooked at the same time, which made the process faster.

When all the dumplings are cooked and served on the table, everyone sits around and starts eating together in a lively atmosphere.

The dumpling skin is thin and the filling is rich. The fragrance of leeks and the deliciousness of shrimps are intertwined in the mouth, leaving a long-lasting aftertaste. Everyone praises the dish highly.

Everyone was eating dumplings and chatting, and the whole house was filled with laughter.

After lunch, after tidying up the house, Yue Hongying and Zeng Xianggui said goodbye to a few elders and went out shopping together.

Once the two of them left, there were only three elders left in the family.

"Sister Cao, Sister Guo, I asked you to come here today because I want to trouble you with something." Yue Wenxuan spoke with a smile, his tone of politeness and sincerity.

"Wenxuan, just tell us what you have to say. We will definitely help if we can." Sister Cao responded readily, and Sister Guo nodded in agreement.

"It's like this. My sons, Hongying and Xianggui, are both not young anymore. Hongying just graduated from college and has gradually settled down in her work. It's time for her to find a partner.

Xianggui is one year older than Hongying, she is 23 this year, she just graduated from a technical secondary school this year, and now she is assigned to work as a technician in a textile factory. Her situation is a bit special, she was married once a few years ago..."

Yue Wenxuan focused on introducing Zeng Xianggui's personal situation, explaining every detail without hiding anything.

Sister Cao and Sister Guo looked at each other, and Sister Cao patted her chest and said, "Wenxuan, don't worry, we will take care of this matter. We will make sure that both of them can find suitable partners. We all know Hongying's situation, and we have been paying attention to her since a few years ago. At that time, we promised that we must introduce her to a young man with excellent conditions in all aspects. Since we have said it, we must do it, and we can't let Hongying call us aunt in vain.

Xianggui's situation is indeed a bit special, but overall, her conditions are still good.

There aren't many female technical secondary school students. Given Xianggui's conditions, it shouldn't be difficult for her to find a first-married young man."

Yue Wenxuan quickly interrupted and said, "I have already asked Xianggui what she thinks, and she doesn't want to find an unmarried young man.

Secular views are always more harsh on women. If Xianggui finds a young man who is getting married for the first time, even if the other party can accept her past, he will definitely feel uncomfortable.

If you want to live a happy life in the future, it is better not to leave such hidden dangers. So Xianggui means to find a divorced or widowed young man, even if the age difference is a little big, as long as it is no more than ten years, you can consider it.

It would be best if the man has no children. If the conditions are particularly good and he has only one or two daughters, we can consider him, but if it is a boy, we will not consider him.

There is no other way to make such a request. After all, no one wants to be a stepmother.

If it's just a girl, as long as she gets married in the future, she will be able to get through it, and there will basically be no conflicts in the future. But if she becomes a stepmother to a boy, it will be a lifelong thing, and there will be too many troubles in the future, so I won't consider it. "

These requirements had been discussed by Yue Wenxuan and Xianggui, and they must have been told to the two matchmakers in detail.

With his daughter's conditions, Yue Wenxuan was not worried about not being able to find a good partner. As long as she didn't dislike the blind dates arranged by the elders, she would always find a satisfactory candidate.

Compared with my daughter, my niece's marriage is more difficult. If it is not handled properly, it is easy to end up with a marriage that is neither high nor low.

After hearing what Yue Wenxuan said, Sister Cao and Sister Guo deeply agreed with his concerns.

Sister Guo looked thoughtful, she nodded gently and said slowly: "Wenxuan, you have considered it very carefully, we can understand Xianggui's situation.

Don't worry, we will do our best to find a suitable partner for Xianggui."

Sister Cao also echoed, "Yes, Wenxuan, Xianggui is a good child. Although she has experienced some setbacks, she is tenacious and motivated. She is now a state cadre. After listening to her experiences, I feel proud of her.

Such a good child must be allowed to live a happy life. I will carefully select candidates for her, but it may take a while, so don’t worry.”

"Then I'll leave it to you two elder sisters. The marriage of Hongying and Xianggui depends on you. There's no rush for their marriages. We can take our time to find the right one. It doesn't matter if we take a long time to find one. The most important thing is to be the right one."

Both sisters nodded and said they would do their best.

It was already afternoon, and after finishing their business, the two elder sisters said goodbye and left. Of course, before leaving, Yue Wenxuan did not forget to bring a big carp for each of them.

Time flies, and it's the weekend in the blink of an eye.

Sister Cao and Sister Guo came to Yue Wenxuan's house again, holding some gifts in their hands.

As soon as they entered the room, Sister Cao smiled and said, "Wenxuan, we have brought you good news."

Yue Wenxuan was delighted when he heard this. He quickly asked the two elder sisters to sit down, and then asked impatiently, "Sister Cao, is there any sign of Hongying and Xianggui's marriage?"

"Hongying has found her date, and there are multiple options, so she can be sure to pick the one that satisfies her.

Xianggui's marriage will have to wait a while, after all, her situation is a bit special. We have selected a few suitable candidates for her, but after much inquiry, they are still not suitable." Sister Cao said with some regret.

"I'm sorry to trouble the two elder sisters. We have to make inquiries from various sources. We would rather go through some trouble to find a good partner for Xianggui.

She can't stand a second blow. If there is any accident in this marriage, the child might even have mental problems."

Sister Guo quickly said, “We thought so too. It is precisely because we set the standard so high that we did not find the right candidate.

In fact, the few candidates that were screened out at the beginning were generally okay, but after inquiring more, I found that some of them were more or less not suitable.

In order to prevent the child from suffering the pain of an unhappy marriage again, we should be more diligent and carefully select a partner for her. It doesn’t have to be of the best quality, but it must be suitable for her situation.”

The two had a special relationship with Yue Wenxuan. Since they were introducing a partner to his niece, they treated it as their own business and set very strict screening criteria.

Sister Cao took a sip of water and continued, "Let's not talk about Xianggui for now. If you want to pick the right one, you have to rely on luck and don't be impatient.

Let’s talk about Hongying’s marriage first.

We have temporarily selected five candidates, each of whom has good qualifications and advantages. I will first tell you about these people and see if there is anyone you particularly like.

Wait for Hongying to come back and let her look at the photos. If she likes any of them, we will arrange a meeting.

If Hongying doesn't like any of them, then we will continue to screen. There are so many outstanding young people in Quancheng that we can always find a suitable one for the child."

Next, Sister Cao told Yue Wenxuan the details of the five candidates who had been selected.

After listening to Sister Cao's introduction, even the knowledgeable Yue Wenxuan felt that each of these five candidates was good and excellent.

If we just listen to the introduction, Hongying's future should be similar no matter who she dates.

As for which one Hongying will choose in the end, she will probably have to look at the photos and see which one she likes more.
