Chapter 135 Housewarming Banquet Turns into a Blind Date

The gold couple stayed in their nest for a while before flying away. At first, they didn't fly far, just hovering over the grassland that belonged to Ye Zi's family, as if they were patrolling their territory. They circled a few times before flying away.

In the evening, the invited guests arrived one after another, some on horseback and some in cars.

Without exception, they all brought their families. One of Yezi's childhood friends, whose mother and Siqin were the same age and had a good relationship, was among those invited.

When my childhood friend came, he brought not only his wife and children, but also his younger sister.

The others were the same; some brought their younger sisters, and some brought their daughters and nieces.

At this moment, Ye Zi realized that this was not a housewarming party, but a matchmaking event.

Looking at Siqin, she saw that everyone who came had brought their daughters and nieces, and she couldn't stop smiling.

Ye Zi then realized that this was all arranged by his mother, who was using the housewarming party as an excuse to set him up on blind dates.

It's not like we haven't made plans before, but Yezi always managed to find an excuse to avoid them. Now, she can't avoid them anymore.

Ye Zi is a celebrity online, especially after participating in two shows and winning the grand prize both times. Perhaps she is nothing special in the eyes of her parents' generation, but she is definitely famous among her peers.

An only child, with grasslands, livestock, and money at home, and possessing exceptional fighting prowess, would be the ideal mate on the grasslands.

Just then, the golden eagles returned, cried out a few times, and landed on the roof. Ye Qingshan didn't care whether they had eaten enough or not. He took out a piece of raw beef weighing about five pounds from the house and had Ye Zi throw it onto the roof.

Don't ask why they don't throw it away themselves; the answer is that there are young, able-bodied people in the family.

Ye Zi took the beef and whistled. Jin Zi peeked out, and Ye Zi threw the beef over to him.

Without any hesitation, Jinzi spread its wings, grabbed the beef, circled once, and rushed into its den.

Everyone present looked on with envy. This wasn't a matter of gender or age; they were all people who grew up on the grasslands, and who wouldn't want to own a bird of prey as a pet? The girls were no exception.

During the tour of the villa, Ye Zi's brown bear fur coat and great white shark skin were hung on either side of the Genghis Khan pyrography painting, attracting the attention of the visitors. These were all Ye Zi's achievements.

After visiting Ye Zi's villa, the children mingled together with the candy and toys that Ye Zi had distributed, while the adults took their seats.

The dining area was not the villa's restaurant, but the living room. Ye Zi's living room was decorated in the traditional Mongolian style.

The room was furnished with low tables and carpets, and each low table could seat two people and a child.

Normally, there are three tables on each side of the living room, except for the low table at the head of the table. Today, five more tables were added to each side so that all the guests could sit down.

Ye Qingshan sat in the main seat and recounted how Ye Zi and Jin Zi met.

Then she talked about how Jinzi brought back his partner, and finally glanced at Yezi with a look of disdain, saying that he couldn't even find a partner.

Ye Zi immediately knew that the last sentence was something her mother had taught her.

With so many people present, including six eligible single women, everyone relaxed when Ye Qingshan admitted that Ye Zi didn't have a boyfriend and Ye Zi didn't deny it.

Although Siqin had already said on the phone that Yezi didn't have a boyfriend, nowadays young people don't necessarily tell their parents even if they do.

In this kind of setting, there's clearly an element of matchmaking involved. If there is, then we should say so and treat it as a real housewarming party. If not, then we can add the element of matchmaking.

If she clearly has a boyfriend but didn't mention it, adding the element of blind dating will make it difficult for Siqin to maintain good relationships with these friends in the future.

Since Ye Zi didn't say anything, then it's true that there isn't one, and the blind date part can still proceed.

Siqin came out of the kitchen and called a few young wives to help. The main reason for doing this was to tell Yezi which of the guests were married and the remaining young women would be his blind date.

Because the young women who came were not all brought by Yezi's childhood friends, but also by Siqin's friends' daughters-in-law and daughters. Yezi had to call all of these women "sister-in-law" or "elder sister" so that they could introduce the unmarried girls they brought to Yezi.

Ye Zi was also helpless, not expecting that her parents hadn't let slip a word about it, and neither of her two childhood friends who came mentioned it.

He nodded politely to the five girls, then continued chatting with his two childhood friends.

Once the food and drinks were served, the young wives who had gone to help returned to their seats, and Siqin called Yezi over to push the ox.

That's right, it's roasting a whole cow.

Ye Zi's kitchen has a huge oven, which Ye Qingshan specifically requested, capable of roasting two sheep or a not-too-large cow at the same time.

Including Yezi's family of three, there were more than 30 guests in total. One whole roasted lamb wasn't enough, and roasting two wouldn't be a good idea, so they went straight for beef.

There was a stroller provided, but Siqin specifically requested it to demonstrate her son's incredible strength.

Ye Zi carried out a cow weighing over 300 jin (approximately 150 kg) and placed it in the middle of the living room. Ye Qingshan then gestured for Ye Zi to butcher the cow.

Ye Zi picked up a knife and made a few cuts on the cow's body, then began to butcher it. After butchering it, Ye Zi pushed the cart past the customers, stopping at each table so that the customers could choose their favorite parts to take away.

Finally, place the cart in the center. If anyone feels it's not enough, they can get more themselves.

After dinner, there was a bonfire party. The low tables were moved outside and placed in an open space, while the food and drinks remained on the tables.

As Ye Qingshan lit the bonfire, Ye Zi also lit the fireworks she had prepared.

The bonfire party officially began.

Although it was called a bonfire party, this was actually the beginning of the blind dates.

Yezi has already showcased her talents, such as the bearskin coat and sharkskin dress in the living room, and the whole roasted beef weighing 300 jin (150 kg) that she brought out by herself. Now it's time for the girls who came for blind dates to show off their skills.

In modern society, although the Mongolian robe is not the everyday wear of people living on the grasslands, even short sleeves can incorporate Mongolian elements.

Although they weren't sure beforehand whether there was any element of matchmaking involved, and there was no need to dress up formally, all the guests wore modern clothing incorporating Mongolian elements.

Showcasing talents is nothing more than singing and dancing performances, so how could there be no accompaniment at this time?

Many guests brought musical instruments with them. One of Yezi's childhood friends not only brought his younger sister but also his morin khuur (horsehead fiddle). Another uncle also brought a musical instrument.

Ye Zi's childhood friend played the violin, his wife sang, and his sister danced the opening dance, instantly creating a lively atmosphere.

No wonder my childhood friend didn't let anything slip; he was clearly prepared.

With the opening performance, the others naturally wouldn't fall behind. Ye Zi even saw the mouth harp. If his childhood friend, who played the morin khuur, hadn't explained it to him, he wouldn't have even known that the Mongolians had this instrument.

The pure steel sound of the mouth harp, combined with the melodious throat singing and morin khuur, allowed Ye Zi to experience the profound heritage of a nation for the first time.
