Silly Zhu was almost 32 years old, and he didn't even have a partner.
No one in the family was anxious for him, and none of the neighbors enthusiastically introduced him.
Even Xu Damao, who was next door, had seen more than ten of them in a row, but none of them caught his eye.
No one introduced him. Even if there were, they would be crooked.
Silly Zhu was always thinking about Qin Huiru and always compared Qin Huiru to his blind date partner.
It was either because he thought that this person was ugly or because he thought that the other person was older.
Some people who raised sheep and pigs at home felt that it was too lowly, and those who brought up children did not want it because they felt that they were not worthy of him.
"Silly Zhu, what requirements do you have for the girl today? Did you like Sister Qin after all these years?”
Li Erlong glanced at Silly Zhu sitting opposite her and said.
"I'm a chef and I earn dozens of yuan a month. She can't possibly find a widow. At least she had to be a virgin. Otherwise, who would be the father of the child in the future?
Also, how can I have a child? I can't raise someone else's son.”
" That's reasonable, but Silly Zhu, you're thinking about Sister Qin…"
Silly Zhu hated it when people asked him if he liked Qin Huiru.
A few years ago, when he was working in the factory, someone in the factory had asked him about it, and Shazhu was a little unhappy.
She liked to give Qin Huairu more when she cooked. As time passed, it was inevitable that people would suspect her. There were even people gossiping!
"I didn't do anything with her? I only sympathize with Qin Huairu. Besides, we live in the same courtyard, so I'll help as much as I can.”
Silly Zhu straightened his neck, his face flushed red and his saliva flew everywhere.
In this way, it was either that others did not like him, or he did not like others.
However, on the surface, Silly Zhu was not anxious at all. He was very confident in himself. He kept repeating,"A nail will always shine". He was not worried about not finding a partner at all.
No matter what screw or steel nail, if he didn't find a wooden board to nail it on, he would still have to endure for two to three years. He wouldn't even be worthy of nailing the soles of his shoes!
Seeing others bring gifts and go around asking matchmakers to matchmake, begging people everywhere to say good things, sometimes, Shazhu's heart was also quite uncomfortable.
Finally, an auntie and Li Erlong introduced him to the same person.
That woman was called Yu Li. She was thirty-one years old and was also an old lady.
She had been in a relationship, had never been married, and naturally had no children. She worked in a nearby factory.
"Coming, coming!"
Soon, Matchmaker Wang came to the door with Yu Li.
Third Uncle was wearing his presbyopic glasses and fiddling with the flowers and plants he had planted in the front yard.
He found the girl somewhat familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where she was. The two of them walked into the backyard one after another.
Li Erlong only reacted when Li walked in front of her. This girl was much prettier than the one in the script.
"Big sister, I've brought a girl here.”The matchmaker shouted as soon as she arrived at the door, as if she was afraid that others could not hear her.
"Quick, let the lady in!" A middle-aged woman was so satisfied that she could not close her mouth.
Silly Zhu was a little embarrassed as he stood at the window and peeked at the lady.
His eyes were fixed on that handsome face.
"Zhu Zi, quickly come out and pour a glass of water."
Silly Zhu came out with candy and water.
Yu Li nodded in satisfaction when she saw Silly Zhu's honest face.
"Zhu Zi, you two have a good chat. I'll go to her house with your Aunt Wang.”
How could the two of them dare to stay any longer, afraid that they would delay the matter.
Silly Zhu and Yu Li sat across from each other at the table while Xu Damao and I leaned against the window to watch.
The girl looked younger and fairer than in the script. She didn't look like someone in her thirties. She looked like she was in her twenties.
Shazhu brought a glass of water to Yu Li and some candy.
The two of them sat facing each other. Silly Zhu held the cup of water and took two sips. His eyes looked around for a long time without saying a word.
She was so nervous that her forehead was covered in sweat, afraid that she would say the wrong thing.
In the end, it was Yu Li who started the show. We stood outside and didn't know what they were talking about.
Yu Li asked and Shazhu answered cheerfully.
The two of them chatted while drinking tea. He even peeled a candy for Yu Li to eat for about half an hour.
Silly Zhu's heart was burning, he had long wanted a wife.
The two shrewd old ladies also came back at the right time, afraid that others would gossip when they saw them.
"How was your chat?"
Shazhu nodded in satisfaction. Yu Li nodded shyly.
"Then when are you going to do it?" A middle-aged woman couldn't help but ask.
"The sooner the better. Of course, I will listen to Yu Li's opinion.
In order to be polite, I decided to formally go to his house to propose marriage.”
When the matchmaker heard this, she couldn't help but give him a thumbs up like a fool.
"Don't worry about the betrothal gift. As long as it's what you want and what I can do, I'll definitely satisfy all your requests.”
Silly Zhu looked at Yu Li confidently.
"I have to go home and discuss the betrothal gift with my mother. It won't be too late for us to talk about it after you visit.”
Yu Li said a little shyly and nervously.
Silly Zhu was extremely happy and sent her to the river outside the courtyard.
Returning home, he sat on the bed pulling out his beard in a daze, Li Erlong and Xu Damao poking their heads out at the door.
"Zhu, what did you say?"
"She asked me what I did for a living. I told her I was a chef in the steel mill canteen.
Then, I told her that I liked her and wanted to date her. I'll definitely treat her well."
Silly Zhu counted with his fingers and rambled on.
"Alright, tell me, what do you think of me?”
Xu Damao couldn't stand it anymore and covered his head helplessly.
"I think…it's alright." Silly Zhu said sweetly.
"I'm going to propose marriage the day after tomorrow. Bro, I have a wife! How manly!"
Li Erlong felt somewhat regretful, why wasn't there a third aunt?
Could it be that he didn't see Yu Li?
