Chapter 84: The Matchmaker
Shaoning took a leave of absence due to illness, so it was rare for President Xiao Da to go into battle in person.
Under the influence of the Mirror, ordinary people have become accustomed to interviewing and being interviewed, so he got the required content without much effort.
However, after half a day of interviews, he was still exhausted: after all, there were too many places to run around, and no one was invincible.
After finally returning home, Xiao Jing just wanted to go inside, drink a cup of hot tea, and take some time to take a nap. Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the courtyard gate, he stopped and hid behind the wall.
, he pricked his ears and listened to the movement inside.
A woman tutted in admiration and said, "Xiaoya, the work you did is really amazing. Grandma Zhang, the best embroiderer in our town, saw what you embroidered and she was full of praises."
Xiao Jing took a moment to take a look. Well, it turns out that the Sun family from Zhenbei is here!
What is she here for?
Sun is a matchmaker in Puhua Town. Over the years, she has helped hundreds of couples get married. Anyone with a child of the right age is willing to ask her to help find a suitable partner. Due to professional sensitivity, Sun
I am very concerned about the unmarried young people in the town. I found Xiaoya today, nominally just to chat about family matters, but in fact...
Xiao Jing smiled clearly and retracted his body behind the wall. Fortunately, Boss Huo sent the dog back, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to hide here.
"Grandma Sun, you are very grateful." Dong Xiaoya smiled and said: "The slave family has only learned some rudimentary crafts from others in the past two years, which makes you laugh."
Sun said: "If this is a superficial craft, then there won't be any girl in the town who knows how to be a female celebrity. By the way, why didn't you see Xiao Yuan?"
Dong Xiaoya responded while hanging clothes on the clothesline: "Xiaoyuan went out to play."
Mrs. Sun sighed: "I heard that everyone in your family is gone. Hey, it's not easy for you to have a daughter and be the sister and mother pulling up the younger brother at the same time. I heard that you escaped from Hedong, so you must have
Have you suffered a lot?"
As she said that, she wiped the corners of her eyes and said: "Now you have settled down and your life is going well. But, you are an editor and have to do housework, when will you be the boss?"
Dong Xiaoya's expression did not change much. Sun moved closer to her and said: "We women still have to find a good family and live a good life. Xiaoya, although you are living a good life now, as the saying goes
Well, beauty ages quickly. You are young and beautiful now, but after a few years, you are no longer as lovely as you are now, what should I do?"
"Grandma Sun, the slave family hasn't thought about this yet." Dong Xiaoya said: "There are enough things going on right now. The slave family just wants to live peacefully and doesn't want to get married yet."
Mrs. Sun straightened her face and said: "Nonsense! Tell me, how sad would your parents be if they knew you said this? Can you bear to let them watch you live alone under the clouds?"
Dong Xiaoya said calmly: "Grandma Sun is wrong. The slave family can live with Xiaoyuan, and they still have relatives in this world. Besides, everyone in the newspaper is very good to the slave family. With them as companions, how can Xiaoyuan be lonely?
Yaya also likes this kind of life."
Mrs. Sun looked at her with a smile and said with a smile: "Xiaoya, tell the truth to your mother-in-law, do you already have a sweetheart?"
Dong Xiaoya was ladling water into the wooden basin. When she heard this, she turned her head aside and paused her hand movements. But soon, she said: "I don't have a sweetheart in my family. Mother-in-law, Xiaoya really cares about me."
These things don't matter, thank you for your kindness. Let's wait until Xiaoyuan grows up to talk about getting married, starting a family, etc."
Her attitude was obvious, but Sun didn't give up. Girls at this age were very reserved and shy, and she felt that Dong Xiaoya was just pretending to be reserved. What's more, Xiaoya was a broke man: Sun had been in contact with
There have been a few girls like this in my life. Which one of them didn't try to welcome her but then pushed her away for a while, and finally said shyly, "It's all up to the mother-in-law"?
Xiaoya's life experience is a bit worse. After all, breaking up a family is not auspicious, and it is not a good thing to put it in marriage. However, when it comes to appearance and character, no daughter in the town can do it.
As beautiful and generous as she is, with a beautiful heart. If I can arrange a marriage for her, then the money given by the groom's family as a thank you...
Mrs. Sun seemed to see countless white coins flying in front of her eyes. Even if it was for the sake of money, she would never give up easily.
"Xiaoya, don't think your mother-in-law is nagging you. Since you don't have a sweetheart, I have to nag you about something." Grandma Sun whispered, "After you came here, did Mr. Xiao treat you as a slave?
?”
Dong Xiaoya shook his head vigorously and said: "The slave family once regarded me as a slave of the Xiao family, but the young master treated the slave family as a relative and never treated me harshly."
Sun asked tentatively: "Then, Mr. Xiao is interested in Xiaoya?"
Dong Xiaoya clenched the rag in her hand and shook her head again. Sun looked at her sideways, so naturally he couldn't see the dimness that flashed in her eyes.
"This is a bit troublesome." Mrs. Sun rolled her eyes and said: "You are neither a slave of the Xiao family nor anyone of Mr. Xiao. Even if Mr. Xiao has the grace to save Yu Xiaoyuan, even if there are still people in this courtyard
If there are other people living here all the time, it will inevitably cause trouble. It will be even more difficult to find a home in the future."
If Dong Xiaoya is a slave of the Xiao family, it can almost be assumed that she is Xiao Jing's person; if Xiao Jing is interested in Xiaoya, then there is no need for her to be a matchmaker and mess with it. However, both of these possibilities are ignored.
Ya personally denied it.
So, Mrs. Sun came up with the trump card she had thought of before. The matchmaker was the gossip queen in the town. She knew each family's weaknesses and exploited them, which was what she was good at.
After all, the power of the world is very terrifying. Even if the Da Rui Dynasty's suppression of women is not harsh, a beautiful young woman and a man living under the same roof will still be gossiped about. Over time,
Yes, it will inevitably damage the woman's reputation.
Dong Xiaoya's conditions are very good. However, if she takes a wrong step on this issue, she will inevitably join the "difficult to marry" team.
Mrs. Sun originally thought that Dong Xiaoya would look worried and then waver; but unexpectedly, Miss Xiaoya just said calmly: "Whoever wants to say something, let him say it. The slave family can't control others. Mother-in-law, the slave family is living a good life."
, please don’t talk about marriage or anything else.”
