Siheyuan: Full of Love

"Since Da Zhuang said so, it should be correct." Matchmaker Wang said perfunctorily.

Seeing that there was a way, Jia Zhang agreed, "Yes, Da Zhuang from our courtyard would never lie!"

This made Matchmaker Wang confused, "Why? Why can't he lie?"

"Because he has a problem with his brain and is silly all day long. Such a person is no different from a fool. How could he lie?"

"And last night he got drunk and smashed the door of the second uncle's house in our yard. How did you say that?"

Jia Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Yes! Simple-minded but strong-limbed!"

Matchmaker Wang looked at Jia Zhang with some sympathy. Could it be that this woman had been fooled by Zhang Dazhuang?

You say he has a problem with his brain, or is he stupid?

Forget it! Why bother with this? She is hopeless!

Seeing that Matchmaker Wang didn't say anything, Jia Zhang thought that Zhang Dazhuang's name was quite useful, as even Matchmaker Wang knew that he was a fool.

He continued to speak with more effort: "Aunt Wang, you see that Sha Zhu has also agreed, and he is not happy with the other side, can you introduce him to my Dongxu?"

"But there is no way to explain to the girl! Isn't this equivalent to a woman marrying two husbands?" Matchmaker Wang continued to make things difficult.

"She just went on a blind date with Sha Zhu, and they didn't register or hold a wedding banquet, so how can it be considered a marriage? Aunt Wang, you can't think like that!"

Jia Zhang said anxiously.

"Besides, if that girl follows my Dongxu, I will make sure she enjoys the best food and drink in the future!"

Matchmaker Wang pretended to be a little embarrassed and agreed: "Okay, then I'll go talk to them again. But I can't guarantee whether it will work or not!"

Jia Zhang was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, Aunt Wang! Thank you, Aunt Wang! I will definitely thank you very much after the matter is accomplished!"

Matchmaker Wang suddenly laughed and said, “Sister-in-law Jia, don’t wait until the matter is done.

"Let's agree that the matchmaking gift we gave earlier will be used as the marriage proposal for Dongxu this time, how about that?"

Jia Zhang nodded repeatedly: "No problem! Just consider it as the matchmaking gift this time!"

A mere dime is nothing to my Jia family. Am I such a stingy person?

"That's it for the matchmaking gift, but I can't go to the girl's house to discuss this matter empty-handed, right?" Matchmaker Wang spread her hands and continued.

"Ah?" Jia Zhang was a little dumbfounded when she heard this. So she still had to spend money to buy things?

All right! I'm going to be frank and stop pretending! I, Jia Zhang, am just stingy!

"What do we need to buy?" Jia Zhang asked warily.

"Food! Fruits! Meat. You need to bring some of each, right?" Matchmaker Wang said, counting on her fingers.

Jia Zhang looked embarrassed, "This... is too much, right?"

Matchmaker Wang said hurriedly, "Not much, not much. Nowadays, everyone has to bring something when they do business."

Jia Zhang gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, how much does it cost?"

"At least ten or eight yuan." Matchmaker Wang pretended to estimate.

"Ten or eight yuan?! So much?" Jia Zhang's eyes widened, "Aunt Wang, please don't lie to me!"

"Rice and flour are only 10 cents per pound, and even meat is only 50 cents per pound. Why would you spend so much money?"

Matchmaker Wang shook her head. "This is already too little. The girl is so well-off. Wouldn't it seem too shabby if she had so few things?"

Jia Zhang began to feel sorry for Zhang Da Tuanjie, but when she thought about her son being able to get married, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

"Okay, then ten yuan." Jia Zhang took out the money from her pocket, which was the leftover from the Great Unity bill she took out last time, and handed it to Matchmaker Wang.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you."

"Sister Jia, this isn't ten dollars, is it?"

Matchmaker Wang counted and said, "This is only seven dollars and ninety cents."

"Isn't eight dollars enough? That's about right!" Jia Zhang said with a painful look on her face.

She couldn't bear to look at the money, fearing that if she looked again she would have to snatch it back!

Matchmaker Wang looked at her with some disdain and said reluctantly, "Don't worry, Sister Jia, I will do my best."

Jia Zhang said thank you again reluctantly and turned back to go home.

Seeing Jia Zhang leaving, Matchmaker Wang spat at her behind her back.

Although I didn't make things too difficult for Jia Zhang today, I still felt refreshed!

Da Zhuang is a capable person! Matchmaker Wang admired him from the bottom of her heart.

He muttered to himself, appearance doesn't matter, but where can I find a girl with a similar figure and height to Qin Huairu?

Glancing at the money in her hand, Matchmaker Wang smiled widely and said she would wait until Jianguo and Jianjun came back in the evening and then go buy some roast chicken to try!

. . .

Zhang Dazhuang discovered at the factory that You Fengxia looked at him with deep meaning and was particularly shy.

Not only do I always blush when I see him, but he also seems mysterious to me.

I wanted to ask or test the waters, but she avoided me!

Zhang Dazhuang was confused. Did she like him?

If you like me, just tell me. I don’t care if I’m a gigolo!

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Zhang Dazhuang feels that this girl might do something weird.

Sure enough, Xu Damao came over at noon.

She said to him mysteriously, "Da Zhuang, the date has been set. I'm going on a blind date this weekend!"

"Did you leak the news?" Zhang Dazhuang asked back.

"What news leaked?" Xu Damao wondered.

"Then why do you treat a blind date like a secret agent meeting? Why are you so secretive?"

"Hehe! Da Zhuang, you have something to do here, you have to go with me!" Xu Damao said with a wicked grin.

"Why would I go with you when you're on a blind date? Besides, Zhuzi is going to pick up his wife for the wedding banquet this weekend, and I still want to tease the bride!"

"Eating at a banquet and teasing a new bride, isn't that more fun than watching you go on a blind date? I'm not going!"

Zhang Dazhuang shook his head and refused decisively.

I've gone to so much trouble to bring Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu together, shouldn't I hear Sha Zhu call her Sister Qin? Otherwise, what a loss!

"Hey? Da Zhuang, I told you that you have something to do here!" Xu Damao said hurriedly when he saw Zhang Da Zhuang refused.

"What's the matter? Can you give me a chance like Jia Dongxu? A girl goes on two blind dates?" Zhang Dazhuang retorted.

"Come on! Only you can come up with such a mean trick, Da Zhuang, you've turned evil!"

"If you have something to say, please say it quickly. What does this have to do with me?"

Xu Damao chuckled, "Well, my mom said that my blind date is the eldest daughter of the Lou family, Lou Xiao'e."

"I already knew this. You told me last time! What else?"

"Lou Xiao'e said one of her sisters is also going on a blind date!"

"Lou Xiao'e told you?"

"It was spread by the Lou family that Lou Xiao'e and one of her sisters were going on a blind date together!"

"Blind date with me?"

"I didn't say I wanted to go on a blind date with you, I just asked me to take you there!"

Zhang Dazhuang was speechless. Didn't he take me there just to go on a blind date with me?

OK! It was indeed that girl You Fengxia. I knew she would do something weird.

I had originally thought of waiting until Xu Damao became successful, and then trying to contact You Fengxia with the help of Lou Xiao'e.

Now, she came to my door herself.

Since she has said so, wouldn't it be too arrogant of me if I don't take her down?

No! I have to keep a low profile and take her down!

Zhang Dazhuang nodded, "Okay, let's go together then!"

"Aren't you going to entertain your wife at the banquet?" Xu Damao teased.

"Let's go on a blind date this weekend. Just let Brother Zhuzi pick up his wife and make arrangements on Saturday. It will be great if we can both have no delays!"

Zhang Dazhuang gave a thumbs up to his idea that echoed both ends.

Xu Damao was speechless. "I'm asking you how much you want to tease your wife? If you marry one and bring her home, don't you want to tease her as much as you want?"

Zhang Dazhuang said meaningfully: "I don't want to tease my wife, I just want to tease her..."
