Chapter 202: Be a Matchmaker
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Tong’s family came over to pay New Year’s greetings to Ning Xi and others.
Ning Xiuhe and Tang Xiangqin had another meal.
Ning Xi was still ordered not to enter the kitchen and could only sit by the well with a stool to help wash vegetables.
Zhou Min came over with a stool to help wash the vegetables. She actually wanted to help in the kitchen, but Ning Xiuhe didn't let her go, saying that they were here to pay New Year's greetings today and were guests, so they couldn't be allowed to help in the kitchen.
Zhou Min looked up at Ning Xi several times, looking like he was hesitant to speak. Ning Xi was a little speechless. "Xiao Min, what's wrong with you?"
"Just..." Zhou Min blushed suddenly, lowered his head and took a look at the food in his hand. After a long while, he whispered in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, can you ask him for me?"
Zhou Min suddenly said this. Ning Xi didn't realize what Zhou Min meant, so she subconsciously asked, "What?"
"Just...just..." Zhou Min muttered, unable to speak, and her face was already red.
Xu Ailing was holding her child and playing with the child. Seeing Zhou Min's appearance, she could only explain, "Xiao Min has taken a liking to Zhou Wang Long and wants you to ask him if he wants to get along with her."
“I’m really attracted to her. If that’s the case, okay, I’ll go and ask.” Ning Xi shook the water in her hand, stood up and walked into the main room.
"Sister-in-law, don't be in a hurry, I'll, I'll..." Zhou Min's face turned red and she wanted to stop her, but unfortunately Ning Xi had already gone out.
Zhou Wanglong stood in the main room with melon seeds in his hand and watched Zhou Tong and others playing cards.
Ning Xi stood at the door of the hall and shouted, "Wanglong Zhou, come out."
Zhou Wanglong walked over with a smile and asked, "Xiao Ning, what are your instructions?"
Ning Xi signaled Zhou Wanglong to follow her out. The two walked out of the door and walked all the way to the village entrance before Ning Xi stopped.
Seeing Ning Xi taking him to the entrance of the village, Zhou Wanglong smiled and asked, "Come to pick someone up?"
“No, I’m just looking for a quiet place to ask you a few questions.” Ning Xi stood for a while, brewing her emotions before smiling and asked, “Wanglong Zhou, are you still going back to Hecheng?”
Zhou Wanglong was stunned for a while, and then asked nervously, "Xiao Ning, have you heard any rumors?"
“…” Ning Xi was confused. What did she hear? She heard nothing!
"Yes, my previous factory did come to me and wanted me to go back again, and promised to let me go back to work at the Hecheng Main Factory as long as I nodded, but I have already refused."
“Really, I will definitely not go back. The benefits of our factory are so good. Working here for a few months will make more than if I worked for more than half a year. I am not stupid, and I will definitely not go back. Besides..."
Zhou Wanglong scratched his hair and smiled honestly, "I like your home very much. Every time I come to your home, it makes me feel like I'm home. I can't bear to leave."
Someone competes with me for sales. Guaiguai, this is a big deal. It seems that introducing a partner to Zhou Wanglong is absolutely the right choice.
"Ahem! You've already made a name for yourself in our area. It's normal for your previous factory to let you go back. But I really don't know about this. I just want to ask you if you are willing to stay here in Jiang City for a long time. Bian, the environment and living habits in Jiang City and He City are different, I’m just afraid that you won’t be used to it.”
“This is something I’m not used to. It’s the same for a rootless person like me wherever I go.”
“Zhou Wanglong, I called you out today just to ask you if you would like to stay here. If you are willing, I would like to introduce you to someone.”
After hearing what Ning Xi said, Zhou Wanglong hurriedly shook his head, "Stop it, Xiao Ning, my Factory Manager Ning, don't mention this matter. You see, I am only one person. I want money but no money, and I want a home but no one. Who dares to follow me." "
"Why can't you mention it? You still want to be a bachelor for the rest of your life." In his previous life, Zhou Wanglong was really a bachelor for the rest of his life. At least he was still alone before Ning Xi died. He just didn't bother to get married when he was young, but later he became successful and rich. I want to meet a suitable person who is not interested in his money, but I can't find him.
"It's not enough to be a bachelor, but at least you have to wait until you have the ability before looking for one."
Ning Xi directly blocked him with words: "When you have money, won't you think about whether the other party is after your money?"
“No one wants to marry if I don’t have money!”
“There are really people who don’t think you have no money or home.”
Zhou Wanglong looked at Ning Xi suspiciously, "If there is such a person, either she is stupid, or her family is rich and they don't lack these. Of course, if she is really rich, they won't be interested in me."
"Don't get excited first, listen to me about her family situation." Ning Xi walked to the big tree and leaned against the tree, and said slowly, "This girl is 22 years old. She has an old mother and an eldest brother at home. The eldest brother is married. She has a son. The reason why the girl has not found a partner yet is because her eldest brother cannot stay at home to take care of her mother all year round. She wants to help him share the burden and stay at home to fulfill her filial piety. "
Hearing what Ning Xi said, Zhou Wanglong commented, "This girl is very nice and filial."
"That's right! His eldest brother still has time now and can go back to see his old mother from time to time, but next year he will have to take his wife and children to work in another city, so her eldest brother and sister-in-law also want to let this girl settle down before they leave."
"This girl! I agree to settle down, but I want to find a live-in son-in-law, so that it can be convenient to take care of my old mother. Her eldest brother and sister-in-law mean that it is not a problem whether she is a live-in son-in-law or not, and it is not a problem whether she has money. She only requires him to be practical and capable. , If you can be nice to your sister, you can let your old mother live with them if you get married in the future.”
"My eldest brother and my sister-in-law recently looked at a house and wanted to bring my old mother to live in the town. The eldest brother said that if the other party is willing to come to the house and be the son-in-law, we can live in this house together. If the other party is not willing to be the son-in-law, we can live in this house together." Even if it is a dowry for the girl, when the couple comes back during the holidays, they will treat it as staying at home. "
After listening to Ning Xi’s words, Zhou Wanglong remained silent.
"Zhou Wanglong, you can think about this matter slowly. I never act as a matchmaker for others, so I can't talk about those crazy things. I will stand up and lead you this time because you said before that my family is very happy. "Nuan Nuan, I know you definitely want to have a home and a wife who is devoted to you and is willing to wait for you to come home."
"I also hope that my employees can have a happy family. That's why I mentioned this to you and introduced this girl to you. It's also because the girl and her family are very good. If you can be with her, , whether you live with a big family or live with your old mother in the future, you will not suffer any loss or be wronged. I also know this girl’s style. She is definitely someone who knows the right and wrong. If you and I become successful, I will definitely treat you well, feel sorry for you, and live my life with you in a down-to-earth manner.”
Ning Xi patted Zhou Wanglong on the shoulder, "I'm going back first. You can think about it slowly. Just tell me when you've thought about it. Don't worry, even if you don't agree, I won't say anything and it won't affect our relationship." relationship, it won’t affect your work.”
