The ups and downs of life in the Siheyuan

After tidying up, I remembered that Matchmaker Wang was coming soon, so I got up and tidied up the house briefly.

He had already thought about it, and when he saw Matchmaker Wang, he came to the conclusion that he was not interested in her.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Li Yuan heard the movement in the courtyard. With his special enthusiasm and loud voice, he heard that it was Matchmaker Wang.

Without waiting for Matchmaker Wang to knock on the door, Li Yuan quickly stepped forward and opened the door.

"Hey, wait until you get impatient," Matchmaker Wang shouted to Li Yuan while greeting others.

"Sorry for your trouble," Li Yuan said politely.

"Your house looks empty, but it is big enough. It will be properly arranged in the future. It will be a good new home."

Matchmaker Wang entered the house and looked inside and outside. Li Yuan had to stand in the house and smile bitterly.

In fact, Matchmaker Wang was a little angry today. She wanted to introduce her niece to Li Yuan, but unfortunately she went back and found that her niece was already pregnant.

With such an obvious look, no matter how brave she was, she would not dare to introduce him to Li Yuan.

Now that she had made an appointment with Li Yuan, she had to rush over. She had a lot of resources, and if she could make it, it would be considered an income.

Matchmaker Wang turned back and sat down on the stool next to the table. Li Yuan was busy pouring a glass of boiled water and sat down opposite him.

"Hey, look, they are all young, beautiful and well-educated girls, look at them."

As he spoke, he put a pile of photos on the table and pushed it to Li Yuan with his hand.

Li Yuan picked up the photos and looked at them one by one. The pictures that had not been edited by later generations looked more real and rustic.

In the black and white photo, you can clearly see the wrinkles on his face.

Li Yuan raised his head and glanced at Matchmaker Wang. He stood up and took out a small plate of peanuts from the cupboard. After thinking about it, he took out 3 pieces of White Rabbit toffee and placed them in front of Matchmaker Wang.

"There's nothing good at home, so just eat some and I'll pack it for you when you leave."

A sudden surprise appeared in Matchmaker Wang's eyes. She didn't expect that this was the first time she came to her house and she would get food before she even brought the girl to her house. Especially the white rabbit toffee, which she hadn't seen in a long time.

The reason why Li Yuan was so enthusiastic was because it was the first time in two lives that he was on a blind date and he wanted to experience it. Moreover, the future daughter-in-law may fall into the hands of Matchmaker Wang, so it is better to build a good relationship this time.

"If you don't like these, then take a look at these."

Matchmaker Wang picked up a peanut, put it in her mouth and chewed it for a few mouthfuls. It felt fresh and delicious, her mouth was full of fragrance, and her face became more smiley.

She took out another pile from another pocket and pushed it to Li Yuan again.

Li Yuan felt like time and space were out of whack. Matchmaker Wang was like KTV’s MAMI. If he wasn’t satisfied with this batch, he would switch to another batch.

Li Yuan picked it up, and at first glance he felt that it was indeed longer and more delicate than the previous batch, and at least he had the desire to appreciate it.

Li Yuan read one by one, and Matchmaker Wang dropped the peanuts into his mouth one by one, as if he had everything under control.

Suddenly, Li Yuan paused his hand and looked at it carefully for more than ten seconds, and a feeling of surprise came to his heart.

This girl looks young. She wears a floral cotton-padded jacket and her hair is combed very smoothly.

An oval face is oval-shaped like an oval, with smooth facial contours, unprotruding cheekbones, and an arc-shaped chin.

The eyes are not very big, but very lively. There is a kind of tranquility in the smile.

He endured the throbbing and looked through the next few pictures, and finally took out the one with the oval face. Gently push to Matchmaker Wang.

"Young man with good eyesight, although this girl is not old, she is definitely a beauty. When she grows up in the future, she will definitely be a big beauty."

Li Yuan smiled and refilled the water for Matchmaker Wang. He wondered in his heart how such a beautiful girl could remain until now.

"The girl's name is Tian Xiujuan (last name changed from Zhao to Tian). She is 17 years old. She has a low education and graduated from literacy class. She lives in No. 15 Courtyard of Jing'er Hutong. She has three brothers, one sister and two sisters."

Hearing this, Li Yuan took a breath, what a big family.

"Her family's conditions are a 50-yuan gift and a bicycle."

"This is selling my daughter!" Li Yuan was so shocked that he shouted out.

Matchmaker Wang stopped talking, her face looked slightly embarrassed, but she immediately returned to normal.

"Tian Xiujuan is a good girl. Not only is she good-looking, but she is also an expert at home and abroad, especially as a female celebrity. She is so beautiful when she is a celebrity."

Li Yuan's head hurt when he thought about that big family, so he thought about it and let it go.

"Aunt Wang, I'll forget it."

"Ah! Then look at the other girls." ,

"Aunt Wang, there is nothing suitable. Thank you for worrying about me."

That's what Matchmaker Wang does, and she doesn't think anything of it. Put away the photos on the table and put the three pieces of candy into your pocket.

I looked at the remaining peanuts and felt embarrassed to pack them away.

Li Yuan hurriedly tore off a piece of homework paper, wrapped the remaining peanuts, and handed them to Matchmaker Wang.

"Look how embarrassing this is," he said, taking it and putting it in another pocket.

She drank the water in the water glass in one gulp, stood up and was about to leave.

"Aunt Wang, please wait."

"Ah! Have you changed your mind?"

"Well, He Yuzhu, you know, right?"

"He Yuzhu? Oh, is he just Silly Zhu?"

"Yes, it's him. He wants to find a wife now."

"I won't go. He was very angry last time. The girl came home and came to see me. Her parents scolded me. You said it was annoying? Silly Zhu said to his face that the girl looked like Zhu Bajie's second aunt."

Li Yuan coughed a few times.

"Well, Aunt Wang, he didn't want to find a wife so early in the past. Now everyone of the same age in the courtyard has a wife, and he is anxious. So it's just right to find him now.

And think about it, he is a cook, and he will become one in the future. He will not be able to prepare a table to thank you."

When Li Yuan mentioned the banquet, Matchmaker Wang was immediately moved.

In their line of work, isn't it just a matter of two parties getting married, eating something good, and getting a few dollars as a thank you gift?

"Huh, I think he's grown up, so I'll go see him again."

Li Yuan sent Matchmaker Wang directly to the middle courtyard and ran back home without going in.

Li Yuan took Matchmaker Wang to Sha Zhu's house, knocked on the door, and soon heard a response.

It was Silly Zhu who opened the door. He was cooking in an apron. When he opened the door, he was wiping his hands with a rag.

"Wang Matchmaker? Xiao Yuanzi, what's going on?"

As soon as Matchmaker Wang heard this, she wanted to turn around and leave, but was gently held back by Li Yuan.

"Brother Zhuzi, you're not awake yet. Aunt Wang is here to introduce you to someone."

He Yuzhu just had a bad mouth, but he wasn't really stupid. "Hey, look at my bad mouth," he said and patted it a few times with his hand.

"You don't want to be acquainted with me. It just so happens that it's almost noon, so you can stay for dinner!"

Matchmaker Wang looked at the three taels of meat placed on the table and curled her lips, but she had not seen oil and water for a long time, so she still chose to stay.

Her every move fell into Li Yuan's eyes.

"Aunt Wang, Brother Zhuzi, you guys talk first, I'll go back and take a look."

"Then you're busy." Matchmaker Wang's view of Li Yuan changed drastically, and she was amazed in her heart. It's really better to meet him than to be famous. In the past, all she heard was about Li Yuan's various misdeeds.

But after getting together for a short time today, she found that Li Yuan was not only smart and sensible, but also very experienced in dealing with others, especially the kind of self-confidence that came from the bottom of his heart.

She has only seen these things from officials. Most ordinary people are submissive and fear authority.
