Because she agreed to be a matchmaker, Fang Bai was really serious about it, so as soon as she returned to the city, she started organizing things non-stop.
Today she went to a banquet here, and tomorrow she went to that house to chat with an acquaintance of her wife. For the first time, she even went to the tea party held by the circle of scholar wives, which she rarely went to before, including those who were young ladies and married ladies.
She pushed herself into every social interaction.
In just a few days, I could count the number of people I had secretly inspected with both hands, but I didn't think there was any good one.
She promised it with all her heart, but if this thing couldn't be done, then her Fang Bai family would really have nothing to show off.
It was too far away, so she had no choice but to focus on her own school.
One thing is for sure, at least she knows the children in her school very well, so when it comes to matchmaking, she feels at ease.
Ever since, Mr. Fang felt that something was wrong with his old wife. She had been running out all day long the past few days, but in the past two days, she still ran to the classroom whenever she had nothing to do.
He has been running this school for so many years, but his wife usually doesn't come here.
That's all. In the name of the teacher's wife, she also called this student in the morning and that student in the afternoon to ask questions about this and that, which was even more pretentious than him.
Mr. Fang could see something was wrong, and Fang Congyun couldn't help but see it. He couldn't help but go to his grandmother and said, "What's going on with my grandmother recently? Who are you trying to tell us about your marriage?"
Yes, he didn't ask this for nothing. The classmates who were called by his grandmother to talk were all muttering about this matter privately. From the way his grandmother asked questions, it was immediately clear that he was looking for a suitable candidate.
He was also curious about whom his grandmother was proposing marriage for.
Fang Bai had been looking at it for two days, but she still didn't find a suitable person. Now she was worried. Looking at her grandson in front of her, with his handsome appearance and Yushu Linfeng's temperament, she couldn't help but sigh.
One breath, another sigh.
"Congyun, tell the truth to grandma. Is the girl you said to have Xin Yue really there, or is she trying to prevaricate grandma?"
Fang Congyun said without hesitation: "Of course it is true."
When Fang Bai heard this, her face suddenly fell. Alas! The most suitable person is clearly right in front of her, and she really likes Yinyin's child. How great would it be if she could be her granddaughter-in-law?
But it happened that her grandson had someone he liked. If she forcibly paired up with the two of them, it would be unfair to the child Yinyin. Besides, she couldn't do anything against her grandson's wishes.
It was rare to see his grandmother looking so bitter and resentful. Fang Congyun couldn't help but become more curious, "Grandma, what's going on? Why don't you tell your grandson, maybe he can help you share your worries."
Fang Bai thought about it, her grandson was smart, so there was no way he could really do anything about it.
But this was something that others asked her to do, and she couldn't tell anyone, not even her family members.
At that moment, he just said: "It's like this. My grandmother has a good friend. She has a granddaughter who is in the prime of life. She is smart and clever, and she is about to get married. My good friend knows that I know a lot of people, so he entrusted this matter to me.
Let me help her and find a good match for her granddaughter."
When Fang Congyun heard this, he realized that was the case.
However, grandma’s best friend? Someone who deserves grandma’s attention must be no ordinary friend. He understands grandma’s temperament.
As for the social activities around his grandmother, he also knew something about it. Think about it, when did something wrong with his grandmother start?
It seemed like I was coming back from Siming Mountain.
Fang Congyun's mind was spinning very fast, and he had already vaguely guessed something. He couldn't help but said, "Is she the old lady of the Xu family?"
Seeing that her grandson had guessed it right away, Fang Bai was stunned for a moment, but did not deny it. She sighed and said: "Yes, she is Dajun's sister. I really like this kid Yinyin! But you are such a kid.
My heart, if not, if Yinyin, who I can marry, comes back to be my granddaughter-in-law, I’m afraid I can live ten more years!”
Fang Congyun:......
He somewhat wanted to hold his forehead, but unexpectedly, his grandmother took it seriously and said that the person he was kissing was Miss Xu?
However, Miss Xu’s grandmother asked her to come to her?
He didn't hear Xu Dajun talk about this either?
Miss Xu never mentioned it in her letter.
After thinking for a while, he looked at his grandmother and said solemnly: "Grandma, the girl that pleases my grandson is Miss Xu."
"What?" Fang Bai glanced over. He had just picked up the tea cup and was about to take a sip of it. He was so shocked that he lost his grip and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Aunt Xia quickly came up to see if she was injured, but how could Fang Bai care about this at the moment?
Looking at his grandson, he said with surprise in his eyes: "Are you serious about what you said?"
Fang Congyun nodded, "Seriously."
Immediately, Mrs. Fang Bai smiled happily, and all the depression in her heart was gone. She couldn't help but pat her chest and rejoice, "This is destined by God! I agreed to be a matchmaker, but fortunately I didn't.
When I meet the right one, if there is one that I like, I will talk about it. What if it is successful? Wouldn’t I be cheating my grandson? Fortunately, I am lucky! I didn’t like any of them!"
After saying that, he looked at his grandson again and said with a look of hatred: "You said before that you haven't won Yin Yin's favor yet? Tell me, you have such a good brain, why don't you just put it in a book? You
You need some snacks!”
"I'm dragging her grandmother and the others here first. You can serve some snacks and hurry up to please Yin Yin! If you miss such a good girl, just cry!"
"Let me tell you! I have decided that Yinyin is my granddaughter-in-law! I don't care, you have to find a way to marry me back!"
"No, I said, can you please girls? You definitely can't! You spend all your time reading books. Grandma told you, you can't do this!"
"You have…………"
"..."
Fang Congyun:......
He knew that if his grandmother knew that it was Miss Xu that he liked, his grandmother would be so happy that she couldn't sit still. Look, she wouldn't be able to keep her mouth occupied.
After a long while, Fang Congyun finally returned to his yard, feeling that his ears were almost swollen.
Emperor Fang Bai was not as anxious as the eunuchs, but he was afraid that his grandson would only be able to catch up with his daughter-in-law every year, so he had no choice but to go into battle in person.
I will post today to invite Xu Yinyin to come over for tea, and tomorrow I will post to ask Mrs. Xu to come and play leaf cards. Later, I will wander around to Xu Ji Sanitary Ware Shop, and then to Xu Ji Pig Knuckle Rice Shop, going back and forth.
Not only did I have a great chat with Mrs. Xu, I also had a heated fight with Zhang Xiulan.
And not long after, Mr. Fang’s birthday came.
Mr. Fang doesn't like publicity and excitement, so even if it's his sixtieth birthday, he doesn't plan to celebrate it in a big way. The only people who received the invitations were a group of relatives and students.
As a student, Xu Dajun was originally going to celebrate his husband's birthday, but Fang Bai's side also specially left a message to Mrs. Xu, asking them and the whole family to come and play that day.
So, on this day, Old Man Xu and Mrs. Xu were dressed in new clothes and neatly arranged. Holding the wine jar, they went to Fang's house in Songlinfang with Xu Yinyin's family of four to celebrate their birthday.
