Lu Mo could tell that he had something on his mind, most likely about his marriage, so he asked, "Did your mother call again to urge you to get married?"

"I took a taxi last night. She said if I don't bring a girlfriend back home this year, she'll make me go back to my hometown and marry the girl she's arranged for me." Fang Yanming sighed miserably, feeling incredibly annoyed.

"Then why are you still unhappy? Everything has been arranged for you, it saves you so much trouble." Ye Qingqing found it strange.

Fang Yan glanced at her, grabbed a handful of peanuts, and said irritably, "The wives my mother found for my two older brothers are both big-chested, thick-waisted, and have big butts. They're even stronger than men."

His mother never looked at a woman's face when choosing a daughter-in-law; she only looked at her buttocks.

"A big, round butt is a sure sign of a son."

This was his mother's favorite saying, and she practiced it accordingly. His two sisters-in-law were exactly like that, and they even gave the Fang family two grandsons. From then on, his mother was obsessed with this, always asking matchmakers to introduce girls, and her first words were—

"We don't care about anything else, but your ass has to be big."

"puff"

Ye Qingqing and Ruan Yingzi were so amused they almost spat out their food. Aunt Fang was really funny, but her point of view was also correct: in the countryside, being good-looking is useless; being able to do farm work is the key.

"Brother Fang, what does your sister-in-law look like?" Ye Qingqing asked deliberately.

"Still quite... proper."

Fang Yanming hesitated for a moment, then said something he didn't mean. In fact, he respected his two sisters-in-law very much. They had given birth to children for the Fang family and managed everything inside and outside the home, making their lives prosperous.

But he couldn't speak against his conscience; his two sisters-in-law were indeed not very pretty, or rather, not exactly presentable.

Ye Qingqing could tell at a glance that Fang Yanming's sister-in-law was not a traditional beauty, but rather had a plain appearance. No wonder Fang Yanming was unhappy; this guy himself was of average appearance, yet he was single-mindedly focused on finding a beautiful woman, saying that she could neutralize his genes and improve the appearance of the next generation.

"Since you're good-looking, what else do you need to be picky about? Just go back and let your mother handle the wedding arrangements!" Lu Mo joked.

"That's right, she's good-looking and hardworking. You couldn't find a wife like her even with a lantern. Brother Fang, why are you sighing?" Ye Qingqing chimed in.

Fang Yanming was so angry that he didn't say a word. The two of them were working together, and he only had one mouth. He couldn't win the argument.

He didn't actually look down on the girls from his hometown, but they weren't his type. He just wanted to find a beautiful and slender wife, so what?

I'd rather stay single my whole life than settle for someone I can't find.

Ye Mingcheng came out carrying the dishes, smiling as he asked, "Last time I asked Aunt Cai to introduce you to a girl, I think she's a kindergarten teacher, have you met her yet? How was it?"

Ye Mingcheng was quite concerned about Fang Yanming's marriage. Every day, many elderly people would come to visit his clinic, and some would even set up two mahjong tables in the courtyard. Ye Mingcheng would always serve them tea and was very easy to talk to. The Ye family courtyard was almost becoming a senior activity center.

However, this also has its advantages. At least so far, Ye Mingcheng has introduced three or four local girls to Fang Yanming, but nothing came of it after they met.

The kindergarten teacher this time was also a local girl. She was pretty, but her family was not in the city center and was not well-off. The whole family was crammed into a 20-square-meter room. So this girl was determined to find a good husband and escape her cramped life.

Fang Yanming felt a little upset, and after a long while, he said in a muffled voice, "They don't like me and said they don't want to stay in the dormitory."
