Chapter 181: Matchmaking Again

Chen Cui'e curled her lips and said, "I didn't ask you to be a matchmaker. I just wanted to talk to you and see how nervous you are."

Jiang Xinbai touched his nose awkwardly and said with a smile: "I thought you were introducing me to another job!"

Chen Cui'e gave her a look of disdain and said, "Okay, I'm going back. Remember to bring the things to your third brother and the others."

"Okay, got it." After seeing his mother off, Jiang Xinbai hurried back to the hotel.

Sun Chaoying smiled when she saw her, "Xinbai, your mother sent you something. I also saw a little rooster. You are living a good life. You can have stewed chicken tonight. Let me tell you, add some mushrooms, it will be delicious!"

Jiang Xinbai laughed dumbly and said, "Sister Ying, you guessed wrong. That little rooster is not for me, but for my third brother and his wife. I will give it to them after get off work!"

"Ah," Sun Chaoying glanced at Jiang Xinbai embarrassedly, "No, Xinbai, I'm not..."

Jiang Xinbai waved her hand, "Sister Ying, it's not what you think. My mother is not partial. This is just to nourish my third sister-in-law. They are preparing to have a child!"

Sun Chaoying breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, so that's how it is. Oh, I thought it was a sad story!"

"Well, my mother is very nice to me. Just before she left, she told me that a girl in the village was looking for a partner. I was scared. I thought she wanted me to be a matchmaker again!" Jiang Xinbai said with a smile.

"Haha, how are the couple you introduced a few days ago?" Sun Chaoying also knew that Jiang Xinbai helped the girls in the village to find partners, so she was curious too!

"Oh, how can it be so fast? They are in the middle of it!"

"That's right. It's a lifelong thing, so we should get to know each other well. By the way, you have nothing to do anyway, so tell me about the girl your mother mentioned. Maybe I can introduce her to you." Sun Chaoying also thought about matchmaking. Just like she said, she had nothing to do anyway.

Jiang Xinbai looked at Sun Chaoying curiously, "Sister Ying, are you serious?"

"What's true or false? Just chatting!"

Jiang Xinbai thought about it and said, "This girl is called Sun Banxia. She is the only grandmother in the family. Her living conditions are just so-so, after all, there are only two grandparents and grandchildren left in the family. Grandma Sun is a barefoot doctor in our village. She usually treats minor illnesses for the villagers in exchange for a few centimeters. Of course, she also goes up the mountain to dig herbs most of the time. She can make some money by drying them and selling them to the pharmacy. This is basically the source of income for the grandparents and grandchildren."

Sun Chaoying nodded thoughtfully, "From what you said, their lives are quite difficult."

"That's right. The old ones are old, the young ones are young. It's only in the past few years that Banxia has grown up and can help Grandma Sun go up the mountain to dig herbs. The family's income has increased."

"What are the requirements? What kind of person are you looking for?"

"My mother didn't say much about this, but there is one thing: Sun Banxia wants to take her grandmother with her. In other words, she wants to take care of her grandmother in her old age."

In this regard, Jiang Xinbai still thinks highly of Sun Banxia, thinking that this good girl, who is generally filial, must have good character.

"Oh, this is a strange request. Which girl would bring her grandmother as a dowry when she gets married?" Sun Chaoying smiled when talking about the dowry. This was really a strange dowry.

Jiang Xinbai sighed, "Sister Ying, that's what you said, that's why it's difficult! Granny Sun asked my mom not to add this condition, but Sun Banxia didn't want to!"

"She is a filial girl."

"Yeah, but it's hard even though it is like this! It would be fine if my family had money, but unfortunately we don't."

Sun Chaoying nodded while thinking about something, then looked at Jiang Xinbai with some entanglement, "Xinbai, now that you mention it, I do have a candidate here, but I don't know if he is suitable?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Xinbai turned around, "Sister Ying, tell me."

Sun Chaoying thought for a moment and said, "There is a young man in my yard. He is the only one in his family. He is the type who can feed the whole family if he is well fed. He is also very hardworking. He goes to work every day and doesn't spend money lavishly. He seems to have saved a lot of money in the past few years. The most important thing is that his house has two rooms, which is spacious."

The more Jiang Xinbai listened, the more she felt something was wrong. She quickly waved her hands and said, "No, Sister Ying, I heard that this guy has very good conditions. He has a job, a house, and he is a nice person. There should be a lot of people who would introduce him to someone. It's impossible that he doesn't like anyone, right? Sister Ying, tell me the truth, is there something wrong with him?"

"Hehe," Sun Chaoying laughed twice, "He definitely has this problem, otherwise he wouldn't be single now, right? His eyesight isn't very good at night. His parents love him, so they took him to the hospital when he was young. They said it was night blindness, and there's no cure. Eating more meat, fish and shrimp can improve it, but it can't be cured."

Sun Chaoying knew that people in the past had this problem to a greater or lesser extent, but as long as the nutrition was adequate, it could basically be cured. However, Zhang Chengliang seemed to be born with this problem. His father seemed to be like this, but it was not very serious.

"Ah, does that mean you can't see at all or you just can't see clearly?" There is still a big difference. If you can't see at all, then you are really blind.

"He said he couldn't see clearly, it was blurry, but who knows! We don't have eyes."

"Oh~" Jiang Xinbai said, thinking for a while, and then asked: "Can he accept Banxia bringing grandma to live with them?"

Sun Chaoying smiled and said, "I think he's been asking for it. Think about it, he doesn't have any elderly people to help him at home, and he's just like a blind man at night, so he needs help! You also said that Granny Sun is a barefoot doctor, so she doesn't have to go to the hospital if she has a headache or fever, and she can take care of the children, how great! And it's a good deal for that kid."

"Well, let me ask first?" Jiang Xinbai thought about asking first. If Granny Sun and the others didn't mind, this would be a good candidate. Everyone has their own shortcomings, so no one should dislike anyone else.

Sun Chaoying nodded, "Okay, ask first, and then we'll talk after you're done."

After get off work, Jiang Xinbai went home first, took the little rooster and the herbs, and went straight to his third brother's house.

"Third sister-in-law, are you home?" Jiang Xinbai shouted at the door of a house according to his memory.

Bai Qianqian in the house had just arrived home and was talking to her mother Qian Meifeng. She was surprised when she heard Jiang Xinbai's voice outside the door, but when she saw the little rooster and a bag of herbs in her hands, she understood everything.

She lowered her voice and asked, "Xiaobai, is this something my mother gave me? For nourishing my body?"

Jiang Xinbai handed the things directly to Bai Qianqian, "Yes, she couldn't find the door to your house, so she took it directly to my place. So I brought it to you as soon as I got off work. Sister-in-law, there is only one set of herbs left. You should follow this prescription after you finish it. I have to go home to cook, so I'll leave first!"

"Hey, why are you in such a hurry..." Jiang Xinbai left before Bai Qianqian could finish her words.
