In this way, Jia Dongxu spent the whole night in the alley worrying and thinking, until the next morning when his mother woke up and was shocked to see her son with unshaven beard and red eyes.

"Dongxu, why are you still here? Did that damn Qin Huairu deliberately leave you here? I'll go grab her."

Jia Dongxu shook his head and said to Jia Zhang: “It’s none of her business, I can’t sleep.

Mom, if I hadn't been injured, would Banggeng have had a family as good as Lin Zongxuan's when he was a child, would he still steal chickens to eat?"

"My son, how can I blame you for this? If I have to blame someone, I should blame Qin Huairu for not working hard and not making any money."

When Jia Dongxu heard what his mother said, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and his hatred for his master Yi Zhonghai suddenly diminished a lot.

Although he doesn't care about it now, if he hadn't taught me when I was young, I would have been shot sooner or later under Jia Zhang's doting.

Even if it is just to prevent Banggeng, the only son of the Jia family, from getting shot, he should give it a try.

"Mom, what can I do in my current state?"

,,,,,,

After the incident of Banggeng stealing chickens, He Yushui cried for a long time in her own little house, then spontaneously distanced herself from the Lin family, and returned to the courtyard less and less often.

Although Lin's mother felt distressed, after the last meeting in the courtyard, she did not dare to mention the matter between her and her son again. Instead, she began to ask people about girls from good families nearby.

Within two days, people who wanted to propose marriage to Lin Zongxuan swarmed in and almost broke down the threshold of his house. Among them were the aunties and grandmas in the courtyard, a famous gold medal matchmaker, his parents' colleagues at work, and even staff from the street office.

After all, with Lin Zongxuan's qualifications, he is one of the best son-in-law in the whole city, not to mention the surrounding areas!

23 years old, good at work, good looking, great potential. Although he is not from a cadre family, he has good qualities and reputation.

Not to mention the daughters of ordinary families, even the children of cadres around were attracted by it.

Lin Zongxuan had previously used being busy with work as an excuse to let his family postpone it whenever possible, but this time it was his parents who took the initiative to spread the news that they were looking for a daughter-in-law, so this excuse could no longer be used.

Today is a day off, and Section Chief Lin doesn't want to deal with all the relatives and friends at home, so he prepared his equipment early in the morning and prepared to go to Houhai Lake to dig an ice hole for fishing.

But he didn't expect that someone had arrived earlier than him. Before 7:, someone came to block him.

If it were anyone else, you could just close the door and say you're not there, but you have to see this person. Not to mention that she's a department-level cadre, even if you're close to her, you, Lin Zongxuan, should at least call her aunt.

That’s right, Director Wang from the Street Office, the aunt that Lin Zongxuan met when he just graduated a few years ago, came in person.

Director Wang was actually in a dilemma. The subdistrict office did have the task of matchmaking single men and women, but that was handled by her subordinates. She had no choice but to do it personally this time.

After hearing that Lin Zongxuan was still unmarried, many nearby cadre families submitted their daughters' information to the street office. Their words all seemed to be hoping to find a talent in the procurement system for their daughters, preferably one who was '23 years old this year, had a bright future, and lived in the Hongxing Siheyuan'.

Director Wang was speechless. Why don’t you just report Lin Zongxuan’s identity certificate?

In fact, she had also heard that the boy had no intention of getting married recently and had turned down many matchmakers. But she had no choice but to go, after all, there were some people whom she could not afford to offend.

So she took advantage of her day off today and went straight to the house, blocking Lin Zongxuan who wanted to go fishing.

Lin Zongxuan looked helpless, but the director of the reception office came in person with gifts, which alarmed several old men in the courtyard. They had no choice but to welcome Director Wang into their home and entertain him well.

Director Wang took a sip of tea and looked at Lin Zongxuan. He thought that this young man was worthy of being in an important position at such a young age. His face was very calm now, and he could not tell what he was thinking at all.

"Zongxuan, you are not a child anymore. Although your parents didn't say it before, they are actually thinking about your marriage. They also want to have a grandson sooner."

Your Aunt Wang, I won't force you. Here are some profiles. Take a look at them carefully. If you like someone, go meet them and have some contact. I don't care how things develop."

As she spoke, she took out a stack of information and began to introduce it to Lin Zongxuan. The information was very detailed, and looked like a resume in later generations. The girl's name, age, work experience, and family background were all clearly written on the paper, and there were photos attached.

Director Wang still had to be given face. Lin Zongxuan listened carefully and agreed from time to time.

"Wait, Aunt Wang, what's going on here?" Lin Zongxuan pointed at one of the girls' files and asked, with a rather interesting expression on his face.

Director Wang looked a little unnatural and began to explain: "This girl is an only child. Her mother died before the founding of the People's Republic of China. Her father was injured in the war and can't have children. He is also a relatively traditional person, so he wants to find a son-in-law to live with. But this girl has really good conditions. She is beautiful and a recent college graduate. Her father is also a deputy director of the Ministry of Metallurgy..."

As she was talking, she felt something was wrong and stopped. If she continued, she would be too embarrassed to face Lin Shuming (Lin's father).

Director Wang sighed and continued, "Zongxuan, you can see that these are people who asked me to find you for matchmaking, because you are so outstanding.

There are some people I can’t refuse, so just pick one or two to meet with. If you really don’t have any ideas, I can reject them for you.”

The other person had said this, so Lin Zongxuan could only nod reluctantly and took out a piece of information: "This is it, let's find some time to get in touch, thank you for your trouble."

Director Wang was a little surprised when he looked at the information, thinking that young people still like to be coquettish. There are so many daughters of department heads, bureau chiefs, and brigade commanders, but you only picked the daughter of a grain station chief. Being pretty can't be used to make a living.

If Lin Zongxuan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely cry out for injustice, saying, "I just picked an old classmate to save trouble."

Before Director Wang left, he suddenly remembered something and asked meaningfully, "Zongxuan, has Xu Damao from your hospital been behaving well recently?"

Lin Zongxuan was shocked. He nodded without saying anything and sent Director Wang out of the hospital.
