Matchmaker Wu smiled and said, "Okay. Madam, you have also seen these three girls. They are from our village, and we are a family."
This is my eldest niece. Her grandparents are the only ones left in her family. My parents died early. My nephew went to the war with my sons and did not come back."
Chen Miao's eyes were red and she held Matchmaker Wu's hand, "Auntie, they will definitely be a master in their next life and live a good life."
"I really want to. Hongzhi, please talk to Madam."
"Auntie, please stop calling me that. Just call me Chen Miao."
Zhao Hongzhi glanced at Chen Miao: "Madam, I have no other request. I just want to support my grandparents and provide for them until they die."
Chen Miao nodded, "Of course, this is what it should be. You can decide for yourself whether you want to live in your home or follow the old man to the place I arranged for them."
Sister, you are younger than me, you can call me sister or sister-in-law.
And don’t worry, even if you don’t like them, it won’t work out. If you have any difficulties, you can come here first. I can also arrange work for you. Everything needs to be done for cotton-padded clothes and cotton-padded shoes every year, and everything is done with money.
Don’t worry, you can do this if you want to make money from now on. Of course, there are still a lot of money-making jobs in the fields, and you can make money even in winter.”
Chen Miao is not a person who makes promises easily, but this time she is soft-hearted towards this girl. She just takes care of them, and it is not for nothing.
If you are full and can take care of yourself, you will have no problem.
"Okay, thank you sister-in-law. I'm not too young anymore. My grandparents are worried about me and many people have introduced me. But when they heard that I wanted to live with my grandparents, they were not willing.
The old couple kept talking about why they didn't want to die all day long, so as not to burden me.
Sister-in-law, I heard from my second aunt that they are all people who came down from the battlefield, so I thought I would marry such a person."
Chen Miao excitedly took Zhao Hongzhi's hand. "Don't worry, sister, I will definitely be good to you and the elderly."
This girl has already been decided. As for which one it is, let’s wait until later.
Qiangzi came in with peaches. "Sister-in-law, Sanyuan and I took our two children to my boss's house for dinner."
Chen Miao knew that Luo Bingyuan must have asked Qiangzi to come in and say that he was really unwilling.
"Okay." Luo Bingyuan felt reassured.
"Auntie, you guys eat here today, and I'll find someone to drive you back in the afternoon."
"That's a good relationship." Matchmaker Wu said with a smile.
Qiangzi smiled and went out. Matchmaker Wu called another girl, "Xiaoyu, you also talk to your sister-in-law.
Chen Miao, this is also my niece. Her mother and her are the only two people left in her family.
Like Hongzhi, I am also reluctant to leave my mother, but who can do this? Life is not good for any family, and they have to take care of my mother who is in poor health.
After listening to what I said, the girl insisted on coming to me." Matchmaker Wu sighed after saying that they are all miserable people.
Zhao Xiaoyu looked at Chen Miao and smiled, "Sister-in-law, I have no other requirements, as long as I support my mother."
"Don't worry, sister, they are all kind-hearted people. Of course, you can't worry about an old man in poor health living alone."
Zhao Xiaoyu smiled again, "This makes me feel relieved. My mother and I will never separate. If there is no one we want, I will never marry and stay with my mother all the time."
"Silly girl, what does your situation mean? I'm telling you, almost all the people who come here have no one at home, and they will most likely end up here in the future.
Besides, isn’t it a natural thing to take care of the elderly? Don’t worry about this.”
Another girl raised her head and looked at Chen Miao, "Sister-in-law, my name is An Lixia. My reputation is not very good. Originally, the third aunt didn't want to bring me here, but I insisted on coming.
I have a very bad reputation. When I was a child, I had a boyfriend who drowned when he was ten years old.
Later, he introduced me to another one. He came into the city and was kidnapped by the Japs. Several years have passed, and I don’t know whether he is dead or alive. Their family also broke off the engagement.
If you call me a widower, the one you will find for me in the future is either a widower or a fool.
I don't want to. What does their trouble have to do with me? Besides, I really don't want to serve a fool.
The third aunt told me that here are all people who saved their lives from the battlefield.
I thought that if I was really tough and their lives were tough, I wouldn't be able to defeat them."
After hearing this, Chen Miao felt very sorry for this girl. In fact, in her heart, she also felt that she was a slave, right?
"Sister, I don't believe in any husband, but you still have to ask the man's opinion on this kind of thing. I have dozens of brothers here. Don't worry. There will definitely be people who don't dislike you and cherish you."
An Lixia nodded, "Okay, sister-in-law, just make arrangements. I'll explain my situation clearly to others, and I'll avoid any unpleasantness in the future. I don't want to do this, I'm already scared."
Chen Miao nodded, "Okay, I'll ask in person tomorrow."
Chen Miao handed them four peach cakes again, "Eat, you're welcome here."
Dong Jiaxing and Chao Ming were always there, and they also heard about the situation of the three girls, but they never dared to take a closer look. Brother Sanyuan had already told them that they were selected, and they were just waiting for the news.
With my sister-in-law watching over me, I really don’t have to worry about anything bad happening.
"You two should also talk about your own situation." Chen Miao is really not familiar with them. Luo Bingyuan hasn't talked to him yet.
Then let them speak for themselves. This way there is nothing to hide, the actual situation is laid out here.
Chao Ming took a step forward and Chen Miao almost laughed. Is he reporting to the leader? This kid must be very nervous.
Looking sideways, the three girls also pursed their lips and smiled.
"My name is Chao Ming. I am twenty-one years old this year. I used to be a company commander. During a battle with the Japs, our company had no choice because they were driving tanks. I saw that there were not many brothers left, so I simply
Rush up and use explosives.
After they threw it out, I had no choice but to throw it in a second time, and when I woke up, I no longer had this arm."
Chen Miao twitched the corner of her mouth. This was really a work report to the leader.
"Chao Ming, tell me about your family situation."
"Sister-in-law, I have never seen my parents. They sneaked out from the landlord's house to join the army."
Chen Miao nodded and looked at the other four people. Seeing that they had nothing to say, so be it.
Dong Jiaxing also took a step forward, "I am twenty-three this year. I used to be responsible for laying landmines in the army. I lost this arm during a mission.
I still have my parents at home, but they separated me after I returned. They were afraid that I would be a drag on them, and said that they didn’t care about me anymore, and that I didn’t need to care about them.
I came here as soon as I knew I could live here. I will stay here and live here for the rest of my life and will never go back."
