In late spring of 1983, Ke Xiaoli and Ma Deliang gave birth to a big fat boy and named him Ma Kebei.
The name includes the surnames of both the couple and the fact that their love story took place in the north.
A true fruit of love.
The two set up several tables of full moon wine in a hotel and invited Shen Xiaobei and other friends and colleagues.
Shen Mingzhu and Duan Donglin also rushed here from Jiangzhong City. One came mainly to attend the child's full moon banquet, and the other naturally took this opportunity to see his wife and children.
At the full moon banquet, Shen Mingzhu jokingly wanted to adopt Ma Kebei as her godson.
Ke Xiaoli naturally agreed happily.
However, she, Shen Xiaobei, Gao Hongmian and other married women also took the opportunity to urge Shen Mingzhu to get married.
"Mingzhu, how about I ask your eldest brother to introduce you to someone at his steel mill? Your eldest brother said that his factory is very big and there are many young men who are both educated and handsome. There must be someone suitable for you!"
"Hey, I think Sister Hongmian's idea is good. Let Brother Duan introduce someone to Mingzhu."
"Well, I think it's possible."
As soon as Gao Hongmian came up with this idea, Ke Xiaoli and Shen Xiaobei both thought it was feasible.
Let Duan Donglin introduce a partner to Shen Mingzhu, and that person must be of good character.
Moreover, the two of them are in the same city, so it will be convenient for them to meet, and there will be fewer unstable factors, so the success rate will naturally be higher.
"You are really the eunuchs who are anxious when the emperor is not!"
"Today is my godson's full moon party. The protagonist is my godson, not me. Please don't focus all your attention on me, okay?"
"Mingzhu, everyone is paying attention to you because they care about you!"
"Or, let Big Brother help keep an eye out in the factory and introduce one to you. You can try it out with the other person first."
"If it doesn't work, then tell the other person and stop dating, or just be ordinary friends. If it works, then everyone will be happy, right? You won't lose anything anyway."
"You're more annoying than my mom! Okay, okay, then you guys can do whatever you want!"
"So, you agree?"
"Yes, my dear sister!"
Shen Mingzhu rolled her eyes at Shen Xiaobei and replied with a curled lip.
However, although she acted very reluctantly, she was actually still a little bit expectant in her heart.
Over the years since she went to the countryside, she has been happily competing with Ke Xiaoli, both openly and covertly, and believes that she is not inferior to her in career and financial strength.
Ke Xiaoli bought a house in Beijing and opened two clothing stores.
She also bought a house in Jiangzhong City at the beginning of the year, and the decoration is almost completed now. She now has a total of four shops in Jiangzhong City, both wholly-owned and in partnership.
Among her college classmates, she can be considered a well-known wealthy woman.
But when it comes to marriage and childbirth, even though she wanted to compete with Ke Xiaoli, she always felt powerless.
Because over the years, she has never met a man who makes her heart beat!
Especially as her business expanded, she had more money.
Now, whenever a man wants to approach her, her first instinct is to be wary and wonder if this man is after her money.
Thinking this way can filter out a large number of people.
The remaining small part is often the ugly ones that she looks down upon.
So, I can only watch myself becoming an old maid!
Seeing that Shen Mingzhu agreed to ask Duan Donglin to help her find a partner at the steel plant, everyone was happy for her.
Haha, it seems like she will find a partner and get married soon.
Duan Donglin has never been a matchmaker.
However, he thinks his judgment of people is pretty good.
Moreover, Shen Mingzhu is his relative and she took the college entrance examination with him.
He was happy to be her matchmaker.
He immediately promised everyone that he would pay close attention to Shen Mingzhu when he returned and introduce her to someone he was satisfied with.
Now that this matter was settled, Shen Xiaobei felt a little relieved.
Every time her family called, they would always nag her about Shen Mingzhu's marriage, asking her, as her elder sister, to pay more attention to it.
Tell Shen Mingzhu not to be too picky, or she might end up not being able to get married.
She had already heard these words so many times that her ears were callused.
I guess Shen Mingzhu is the same.
In June, Shen Xiaobei and Gao Hongmian received good news in Beijing.
Shen Mingzhu fell in love with a technician in the steel plant, Guan Haisheng, who was two years younger than her.
He also got into university after the college entrance examination was relaxed, and was assigned to this state-owned steel plant after graduation.
Duan Donglin praised Guan Haisheng to Shen Xiaobei and Gao Hongmian on the phone, saying, "Guan Haisheng is a smart and down-to-earth young man, and his English is also very good."
Duan Donglin likes working with him very much.
He said that although he was much older than Guan Haisheng, he still had to ask him for advice when he encountered some technical issues he didn't understand.
Guan Haisheng always guided him humbly and enthusiastically.
It can be seen that this young man is a rare talent, and he is also very handsome!
When Shen Xiaobei heard Duan Donglin's high evaluation of Guan Haisheng, he was extremely happy and very much supported Shen Mingzhu's relationship with a younger man.
Then I told my family the good news, making them happy too.
However, in early August, the Duan family received bad news.
Duan Xichuan's grandmother passed away due to illness.
Mr. Duan became very depressed and had no appetite because his wife who had been with him for most of his life passed away.
All the descendants of the Duan family, including Duan Xichuan, rushed back to attend their grandmother's funeral.
