Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan
Chapter 96: Find Director Wang as a Matchmaker
There was no conversation that night. The sky gradually turned pale and the people in the courtyard started to get up and get busy.
Zhou Jin didn't have to go to the factory today, and he stayed up a little late chatting with the two girls yesterday, so they all agreed that whoever woke up first would call them to cook, so they didn't get up.
It was almost eight o'clock and Zhou Jin had already prepared the food. Yu Shui came over following the smell. After everyone finished breakfast, Zhou Jin took the two maids out.
In this world, due to Zhou Jin's intervention, Sha Zhu did not buy a bicycle for Yu Shui.
So Zhou Jin let Yu Shui sit on the back seat, and put a pad on the crossbar of the 28-inch bicycle, and placed Zhou Xin on the crossbar. Hanging on the handlebars were the food that He Yu Shui was going to take with him and the gift that he was going to give to Director Wang.
It must be admitted that the 28-inch bicycle of this era was indeed the real deal. Even though it was carrying three people and two bags of items, it was not affected at all.
Zhou Jin first sent He Yushui to her classmate's home. Because the distance was close, Zhou Jin personally escorted He Yushui every time she came.
After all, for a little girl, it is neither safe nor convenient to walk on the street carrying so much food.
After He Yushui carried the food into her classmate's house, Zhou Jin took Zhou Xin and hurried to the street office.
When Zhou Jin arrived at the subdistrict office, everyone was already very familiar with him because he had visited many times before and assisted in purchasing supplies.
Zhou Jin parked his bicycle, handed a big front door to the gatekeeper, and took Zhou Xin and the bag to Director Wang's office on the second floor.
"Dong dong dong."
"Please come in."
"Auntie Wang, I'm here to see you." Zhou Jin said directly as he pushed open the door.
"It's Xiaojin, and Xinxin."
"Hello, Aunt Wang." Zhou Xin also greeted her generously.
"Hurry up and sit down. I have something else to do. Pour yourself some water."
"Okay, Aunt Wang, you go ahead."
Zhou Jin put the bag away, poured Zhou Xin a glass of water, and sat down.
After about ten minutes, Director Wang finally finished the work at hand, then called a staff member in to take out the processed documents.
"Okay, Xiao Jin, I'm done with my work. What brings you here today?"
"Auntie Wang, I was so busy with the purchases for the steel mill some time ago that I didn't have time to come and see you. Now that the matter has finally been resolved, I have time, so I'll come over right away."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense here. Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Hehe, I knew I couldn't hide it from you, but I came to visit you sincerely."
"You have a really sweet mouth. Looking at your state, let me guess, is this related to the blind date?"
Zhou Jin didn't expect Aunt Wang to guess it right away. He was so obvious about it, and now he was exposed. He felt a little embarrassed.
"Auntie Wang, no wonder you are the director of the street office, you are really amazing. I have my eyes on a girl, but my parents are gone, and I don't have any other relatives, so I came here today to ask you to be a matchmaker for me."
"Hahaha, you finally got it. Don't you know that many people in the street office have their eyes on you? I was thinking of finding a time to talk to you, but you came here today.
Let's talk about it. Whose girl is it that could attract the attention of such an outstanding comrade Zhou Jin? "
Zhou Jin's face turned red, and then he answered.
"Auntie Wang, this girl's name is Lou Xiao'e. I met her once before at the steel mill. I was fascinated by her at the time. Later, I had to ask around for a long time before I found out her name."
These words were of course made up by Zhou Jin. How could he have the chance to meet Lou Xiao'e? He rarely stayed in the steel mill. Even if Lou Xiao'e really went to the steel mill to play, she would basically not be able to meet Zhou Jin.
So these are the reasons Zhou Jin came up with to make everything look more natural now.
"Lou Xiao'e, you said her name is Lou Xiao'e?" Director Wang said with some surprise.
"Yes, her name is Lou Xiao'e. What's the matter, Aunt Wang? Do you know her?"
Director Wang smiled secretly at this time.
"If you met Lou Xiao'e at the steel mill, then I should know this person."
Zhou Jin didn't expect that Director Wang actually knew Lou Xiao'e, but then he thought, Director Wang has been the director of the street office for such a long time, many people must know him, not to mention Lou Bancheng, a big capitalist.
"Auntie Wang, tell me, does she have a boyfriend?"
"Hahaha, it's rare to see you so anxious. Let me explain slowly. This Lou Xiao'e is Lou Bancheng's only daughter, and your steel mill was originally her property.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Lou Bancheng donated most of his industries to the country, leaving only a small portion of the dividend rights. He is a patriotic capitalist.
As for Lou Xiao'e, she should be 19 years old this year. She is very beautiful, well-educated, and a complete lady from a noble family. She is still single. I have to say that you have a good eye. "
"Hey, a beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman."
"And Lou Bancheng has been worrying about Lou Xiao'e's marriage during this period, and has been looking for people to introduce a suitable partner to her. However, with your conditions, it is no problem for you to be a good match for Lou Xiao'e."
"Really, Aunt Wang? I'll leave this matter to you, Aunt Wang."
"But I have to remind you of one thing. The Lou family is a capitalist family. Even if he is a red capitalist and a patriotic businessman, this composition will not change. If you marry Lou Xiao'e, you may lose a lot, including your career."
When Zhou Jin heard this, he did not hesitate at all. He had already planned everything when he decided to marry Lou Xiao'e.
Given Zhou Jin's personality, he is not suitable for a career in politics. Moreover, in a few years, not only Sijiu City, but the entire Dragon Kingdom will be in an era of stagnation and danger.
Therefore, Zhou Jin had already planned that before the dark age came, he would take Lou Xiao'e away from the old city and go to Hong Kong to develop his own business blueprint, so the Lou family's background issue had no impact on him.
Moreover, Lou Xiao'e's beauty and gentleness are indeed Zhou Jin's ideal type.
"Auntie Wang, I know everything you said, but I really fell in love at first sight. If I can't marry her home, I might regret it for the rest of my life. Even if I have to pay a price, I have no regrets."
Zhou Jin looked at Aunt Wang, his eyes full of determination and persistence.
Aunt Wang listened to Zhou Jin's words and sighed slightly: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, I won't say any more. I'll leave this matter to you, Aunt Wang, and I will definitely do it for you."
When Zhou Jin heard Aunt Wang agreed to help, he was overjoyed: "Okay, Aunt Wang, but let's do it as soon as possible. After all, Lou Xiao'e is so outstanding, I'm worried that something might happen in the middle."
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Hahaha, boy, I didn't expect you to be so anxious. Okay, I happen to have time the day after tomorrow, so I'll go to the Lou family to help you with matchmaking."
Zhou Jin hurriedly thanked her: "Hey, thank you Aunt Wang first. I'm already 21 years old. It's inevitable that I'm a little anxious when I meet a girl I like. Then I'll wait for your good news."
"Okay, I'll arrange a meeting for you after I've discussed it with Lou Bancheng. It'll be up to you then."
"Don't worry, I will definitely succeed. Just wait for my wedding wine. By the way, Aunt Wang, this is for you. I want to thank you in advance for helping me with matchmaking. But don't worry, I will definitely reward you handsomely after the success."
After Zhou Jin finished speaking, he put the bag he brought on Director Wang's desk.
"Look, I'm your elder after all. I'm helping you to get married, so how can I take your things? Take it back quickly." Director Wang said as he pushed the bag towards Zhou Jin.
Zhou Jin quickly held down the bag and said.
"Auntie Wang, this is what the younger generation uses to honor the elders, and the things inside are what you need now. Besides, you know that these things are not difficult for me to get, so just accept them."
"Okay, I'll take it. Just go home and wait for news."
"Okay, Aunt Wang, I'll wait for your good news. Xinxin and I will go home first."
"Auntie Wang, goodbye." Zhou Xin also greeted Director Wang.
Then Zhou Jin took Zhou Xin home.
After Zhou Jin left, Director Wang closed the office door, walked to the desk and sat down, reached out and opened the bag on the table, and saw four cans of milk powder, four cans of malted milk and ten cans of meat neatly placed inside.
Director Wang couldn't help but sigh: "This Zhou Jin is really capable!"
You know, in this age of material scarcity, it is not easy to get so many scarce items.
Moreover, Zhou Jin was a very thoughtful person. He knew that his grandson was growing and needed sufficient nutrition, so he specially selected these foods as gifts.
Thinking of this, Director Wang felt that he should help Zhou Jin settle this marriage as soon as possible. So he picked up the phone on the desk and dialed Lou Bancheng's number.
Lou Bancheng's deep voice came from the other end of the line: "Who is this?"
Director Wang smiled and said, "Is this Director Lou? I am the director of the Hongxing Subdistrict Office, and my last name is Wang."
Lou Bancheng was a little surprised and asked, "Oh, it's Director Wang. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Director Wang replied, "I have something I want to discuss with you. Let's meet at the subdistrict office this afternoon. Some things are better discussed face to face."
Lou Bancheng hesitated for a moment, but still agreed: "Okay, see you in the afternoon." Then he hung up the phone.
After the call, Director Wang continued to work on his job, while Lou Bancheng on the other side was very confused.
He was not familiar with Director Wang. They had only met at a few government meetings and said hello to each other.
He really couldn't understand why Director Wang suddenly called him and asked for a meeting.
Now, he suddenly asked him to go to the Street Office to discuss something, which made Lou Bancheng a little confused. However, after calming down and thinking about it, he felt that it should be related to Xiao'e.
Lou Bancheng had been feeling somewhat uneasy during this period. He had noticed some changes in the attitudes of the higher-ups towards capitalists like them.
Especially after the classification, even if one donated all his properties, one would still be very cautious, for fear of attracting the attention of those above.
But gradually, he sensed something was wrong, so Lou Bancheng thought about marrying his daughter to a working-class woman to neutralize his family background. In this way, even if she was really purged at that time, Lou Xiao'e should be fine.
So Lou Bancheng started looking for someone to help introduce suitable young people, but so far no one is willing to do so. After all, no one wants to have anything to do with capitalists.
But now Director Wang suddenly found him. Lou Bancheng thought about it and felt that it must be because of this matter. This made Lou Bancheng start to look forward to it.
Lou Bancheng wandered around the house absent-mindedly until two o'clock in the afternoon. When he looked at the time and felt it was about time, he called the driver to go to the Hongxing Sub-district Office.
