Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

In the evening after get off work, Sun Zhengguo came to the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

However, he did not go in, but waited outside, waiting for Ning Xiaowei to get off work.

He came here for no other purpose than to confirm whether Zheng Juan could be there tomorrow. If not, he would have to find someone else to fill in.

After a while, Sun Zhengguo saw two familiar figures, Ning Xiaowei and Zheng Juan, who were talking and laughing as they walked out.

"Xiao Wei, Sister Juan, this way."

Hearing someone shouting, the two quickly looked up and saw Sun Zhengguo waving and shouting, Zheng Juan joked.

"Okay, Xiaowei, the two of them are about to get engaged, and they are still so affectionate. They even chased him to the company. What do you call this? It feels like a long time since we last met."

"Sister Juan, stop joking. I guarantee that he is here to see you."

"Why are you looking for me?"

"Don't forget, tomorrow's marriage proposal cannot be done without you as a matchmaker. He will definitely come to confirm it."

As they were talking, the two of them had already come to Sun Zhengguo. In order to verify Ning Xiaowei's words, Zheng Juan asked first.

"Sun Zhengguo, are you here to wait for Xiaowei?"

"Not really. I came mainly to see you."

Well! These two people really have a tacit understanding. What Sun Zhengguo said next was exactly the same as Ning Xiaowei guessed.

"Okay! You two really look like a couple. You even know what the other person is thinking. Xiaowei has already said this. Before 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, I will be near Xiaowei's house, waiting for you to come over, and then we will go together to propose marriage."

"Thank you, Sister Juan. I'm really sorry to bother you so many times. This is a small thank you gift from me. Please accept it."

After saying this, Sun Zhengguo took out the bag he had prepared earlier from the car and handed it over.

"this,……?"

Zheng Juan is not a professional matchmaker, she is just helping out a friend, so she is a little undecided and doesn't know whether to accept it or not.

"Sister Juan, just accept it! This is a small token of our appreciation. You won't think it's too little, right?"

"Yes! Sister Juan, I was able to meet Zhengguo thanks to your introduction. Please accept it! Otherwise, I will be embarrassed to see you next time."

The young couple had resorted to all means of provoking her. What could Zheng Juan say? She could only accept it with a smile.

Because the car was not convenient to sit in, Zheng Juan accepted the gift and left on foot alone.

Sun Zhengguo took Ning Xiaowei with him and sent her back home.

When Wang Guiying saw him, she wanted to invite him to dinner, but Sun Zhengguo politely declined, saying that he had something to discuss at home.

After saying goodbye to Wang Guiying and returning home, his parents had already finished get off work and were waiting for him to have dinner.

After dinner, Sun Dajiang and his wife looked again at the gifts prepared by Sun Zhengguo and praised their son for his excellent work.

Now everything is ready, just waiting for tomorrow. Seeing that there is nothing to do, the couple happily ran out to brag.

The next morning, after finishing their breakfast, the family leisurely packed up their gifts and waited until the time was almost right before they prepared to leave.

"Zheng'an and Zhenghong, you guys take care of yourselves for lunch at home. We'll go get it for your eldest brother. He won't be back for lunch."

Before leaving, Lin Wencui gave instructions.

"Don't worry! We can still starve ourselves. Big brother, you have to marry our sister-in-law back to us as soon as possible."

Sun Zhenghong said mischievously.

Sun Zhengguo made an OK gesture, and the three of them left home and rode their bikes to Ning's house.

More than ten minutes later, the three of them arrived near the Ning family. From a distance, they saw Zheng Juan waving at them. After the two sides met, Sun Zhengguo introduced them.

"Mom and Dad, this is Zheng Juan. It's thanks to her that I got to know Ning Xiaowei this time."

After listening to her son's introduction, Lin Wencui quickly spoke enthusiastically.

"Xiao Zheng, thank you so much for introducing such a good daughter-in-law to our Zhengguo."

"Uncle, aunt, you don't have to be polite, we are all good friends, it's nothing!"

Zheng Juan said politely.

When she thought of the gifts she received yesterday, she couldn't help but be polite, because they were really too much.

After the two sides got to know each other, they didn't talk much and walked towards the Ning family courtyard together.

In the Ning family's yard, Wang Guiying had been waiting for a long time. When she saw someone coming, she hurried to greet him.

"You are here, big sister. I have been waiting for you to come. Please come in."

Since everyone was familiar with each other, Lin Wencui was able to relax. She walked forward, took Wang Guiying's hand, and said with a smile.

"Sister Wang, I'm sorry to bother you today. Let me introduce you. This is my husband, Sun Dajiang, and this is Xiao Zheng~Zheng Juan, the matchmaker for Zhengguo and Xiaowei."

After the introductions, they greeted each other. Sun Dajiang did not call her Sister Wang like his wife did, but instead called her relative in a proper manner.

What about Zheng Juan?

I was very familiar with Wang Guiying before, and I called her aunt directly, without any awkwardness.

After saying hello, Wang Guiying welcomed them into the house, and Sun Zhengguo followed behind carrying large and small bags.

After entering the room, Ning Xiaowei had already brewed the tea and brought it over respectfully.

"Uncle, aunt, please have some tea."

"Jiang Jie, Zheng Guo, you guys should have some tea too."

"Thank you, Xiaowei. You can sit down too! We are a family from now on. No need to be so polite."

Lin Wencui looked at her daughter-in-law and was satisfied no matter how she looked at her.

After Ning Xiaowei sat down, Wang Guiying spoke first.

"My dear sisters, the reason I invited you here today is to discuss the marriage of our two children. I have no objection to this, but what do you think?"

"Sister Wang, if you have no objection, then we have no objection either. I think we should just discuss a date and decide on it directly."

After listening to what his wife said, Sun Dajiang also nodded in agreement. Because his father-in-law died early, he did not interrupt today and let his wife do all the talking.

"Actually, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I've already picked a date. It's the eighth of next month. What do you think?"

"How can it be a joke? It's all for our children. Sister Wang, since you've made your choice, let's do it on the eighth day of next month."

Zheng Juan, who was standing by, didn't even have time to say a word before the date was set.

But she also knew that the meaning of her existence was just a decoration, because both parties no longer needed her to communicate.

"Sister Wang, now that the date has been set, all that's left is the gift. What do you think...?"

Although both parties don't care too much about the bride price, they still ask it. It's impossible for someone to marry their daughter without you paying a penny for the bride price. What would that look like?

Wang Guiying smiled. She had never thought about the bride price before, but now her in-laws brought it up.

How much would you like?

Wang Guiying looked at her daughter.

Ning Xiaowei suddenly became nervous and thought to herself.

"My mother won't ask for too much, will she?"
