The people talking in the main room also heard the noise outside.
Aunt Wang Er was fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, her double chin visible as she laughed: "Chunmei, is that your Xiaoxi coming back?"
Province C attaches great importance to matchmaking. Tea and snacks must be sent to the matchmaker's home during festivals and holidays. Matchmakers must also be invited to dinner when there are weddings or funerals at home. Aunt Wang Er is a famous matchmaker in this area and lives a very comfortable life.
But she acts as a matchmaker out of conscience. She never accepts jobs from people who want to use their daughters to exchange for marriage or betrothal gifts, or from old bachelors who want to buy a wife.
Therefore, Aunt Wang Er's reputation as a matchmaker is well-known in the neighborhood.
State-owned restaurants are open every day, and their rest hours are different from those of large factories. Liu Chunmei was on shift today and wanted to make something delicious for the children at home, but Aunt Wang Er suddenly came to visit in the afternoon.
"It should be." Liu Chunmei answered absentmindedly.
A few days ago, I was lamenting that the child would grow up and go far away, but today a matchmaker came to my door. What I feared came true.
Aunt Wang Er saw that she looked distracted and burst out laughing:
"I've seen your reaction a lot. When the marriage is being arranged, the husband's family is overjoyed to welcome the new bride into the house, while the girl's family is reluctant to let her go, but they don't want to delay the girl's important event."
"But you know me well. I've arranged so many marriages, and not a single one of them has said anything bad about me.
I've also inquired about this Xu Gongan. He's a handsome man with a good personality. His three older sisters are already married, and his parents can help raise the children. The young couple will have less pressure in the future, and life will definitely be easier for them."
"What are the personalities of the two sisters like?" Liu Chunmei asked while thinking, what you hear is not as good as what you see, especially since it came from the middleman's mouth.
I have to go and find out for myself tomorrow.
"Great! All of you are fine. Policeman Xu said that when your family got into that trouble last time, he saw your Xiaoxi at the police station and fell in love with her at first sight. He wants to marry her only you!"
This Public Security Xu was the one who helped them with their household registration last time. His full name was Xu Junda. Liu Chunmei still had some impression of him. He was indeed good-looking, with a square face and a righteous demeanor.
However, you can only judge a person by his appearance. Things to consider include whether his family is harmonious and what his reputation is among neighbors.
Seeing Liu Chunmei's expression relax a little, Aunt Wang Er knew that something was up, and she pulled out another trump card:
"Xu Gongan works at our district police station and lives not far away. People say 'a good woman doesn't marry far away'. If this happens, she will marry right next door. There is no better marriage than this."
"What do you think? If they have any ideas, let's ask them to come over and take a look."
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll notify you next week." Liu Chunmei wanted to go and inquire about the situation herself and did not agree directly.
"Okay, Chunmei, you have to make a decision quickly. This Xu Gongan is in great demand. Last time, several girls from different families asked about him, but they didn't like him. So they fell in love with your Xiaoxi."
Aunt Wang Er also knew that things couldn't be rushed. She had already said everything she needed to say, so she patted her butt and stood up to say goodbye.
"Hello, Auntie!"
Ning Xi felt it was awkward to go in, so she just chatted with Ning Shaolan at the door, and greeted him quickly when he came out.
"Oh, good~" Aunt Wang Er looked at the two girls who were so tender that they could be pinched to make water, and couldn't help but sigh that Liu Chunmei's family had good feng shui. The children they raised were all beautiful, and most importantly, they were all very capable.
In fact, several people have come to her to act as a matchmaker in the past two days, and they specifically chose Ning Xi. One reason is that she has a good job, working in the Commercial Bureau, and the other is that they all know that Ning Zhisong has given the house to Ning Xi again.
With a job, a house and money, he would be a popular person no matter where he goes.
But she asked them to get rid of all the ugly ones, otherwise it would not be a talk of love, but a talk of enmity.
"Come in quickly!" Liu Chunmei sent Aunt Wang Er to the door.
"Xiaoxi, come to the kitchen with me. I have something to tell you."
"Okay." What is coming will eventually come. Ning Xi put away her bicycle and followed Liu Chunmei to the kitchen.
At this moment, Liu Chunmei didn't even have the mind to cook. She just mixed some cornmeal with some white flour and prepared to make some pancakes.
"I haven't eaten the eggs I boiled this morning yet. You can make some garlic-mashed eggs and dip them in the pancakes later." Liu Chunmei didn't know how to start for a moment. She hadn't married her daughter yet!
"Okay!" Ning Xi swiftly took out the three eggs soaking in the water scoop, peeled off the eggshells easily, and then picked four cloves of garlic and mashed them into a paste in a garlic mortar.
After the garlic is mashed, put the cold boiled eggs directly into it, add a few small dried shrimps and mash them finely, then pour into a bowl, add some salt and soy sauce and mix well.
When the pancake is ready, just scoop a spoonful of it on top and eat it with sandwich. It is especially delicious.
"Auntie, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. What is our relationship? Just say whatever you want to say." Ning Xi saw that she looked constipated and brought up the topic herself.
"Aunt Wang Er is here to act as a matchmaker for me? Which family are you talking about?" This was the first time in two lifetimes, and Ning Xi felt very curious.
Liu Chunmei pounded the dough vigorously. "Xu Junda, Xu Gongan, do you remember?"
I originally thought this guy was okay, but when I thought that Xiaoxi might marry into his family, he suddenly became disgusting.
"Him!" Ning Xi thought about it, feeling a little surprised but not that surprised.
At that time, this person kept looking at her, and she thought it was because she was "famous" and people were looking at her for fun!
I don’t know if it’s because of the nutrient solution, but her memory is getting better and better, and she is surprisingly efficient in studying at night.
Now, as soon as he thought about it, the image of Xu Gongan appeared clearly in his mind.
