Chapter 431 Can This Man Be Married?

"We are going to Xinghua Village later. Xiaoshi said we will meet on the first floor in an hour."

"Xuan Shuhang called me today and said that he had won an award for Under the Dawn."

"He also praised me in the interview."

“Hehehe.”

Si Zhuo: "He only praised you?"

[Hehehehe, who makes me, your wife, more likable. ]

"I'll ask Assistant Feng to call him." Si Zhuo pretended to take out his cell phone.

"What's going on? You didn't care about these false reputations before. It's impossible that they don't thank you for the products you invested in before."

“…”

Si Zhuo hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm really not very grateful to you."

"Impossible." Qiu Manman thought this was unscientific.

Many people would beg for Si Zhuo's investment, and if he really takes a fancy to you, he would publicize it on various platforms as soon as you achieve a little success.

"I suddenly remembered that there was a person who was very talkative and bothered me before. I asked Assistant Feng to remind him."

"That makes sense then."

Qiu Manman: "You didn't let Feng Zhu give you any advice this time. You want to be praised along with me, right?"

Si Zhuo smiled faintly, "Sometimes I really don't know whether to say you are smart or stupid."

"If you dare to call me stupid, don't get into my bed tonight."

[There are not many people in the world as smart as me. 】

[Of course, intelligence is not my greatest advantage, but just one of them. ]

An hour later, downstairs in the hotel.

The car that Xiaoshi connected to was her parents.

Xiao Shi is doing very well in Beijing, which has also boosted the financial situation of her family. She also has a younger brother who is currently attending university.

My parents are older now and stay at home to take care of themselves. They usually grow vegetables and raise some chickens, ducks and fish.

The pension Xiaoshi gives them every month is considered very high in the local area.

"Xiao Shi, this is the big boss of the family where you work as a nanny."

"She's Qiu Manman, right? I've seen her on TV."

"Oh my god, my old lady saw me as a star."

"The stars on TV are all so beautiful. Look at her face, it's so soft and fragile, like a boiled egg."

"This hand is so white and tender." Xiao Shi's mother couldn't take her eyes off Qiu Manman.

Xiaoshi's parents stayed in the town all year round, and occasionally took her on trips, so she had never seen much of the world.

She just instinctively felt that Qiu Manman was very beautiful, and the man sitting next to her didn't seem like a good person.

"Young man, are you the bodyguard of my daughter's boss?"

Xiao Shi: “!!!”

Qiu Manman laughed wildly in her heart.

【Hahahahahahahaha what kind of temperament does Si Zhuo have? How can he be a bodyguard?】

[Is there a possibility that Si Zhuo is my husband? 】

Qiu Manman knew that Si Zhuo would definitely want to show off his body.

She covered his mouth first.

"Auntie, why do you think he is my bodyguard?"

Xiao Shi's mother glanced at him and said what she was thinking, "He is very handsome, but it makes me feel creepy after seeing him for a long time. I don't like him. If he is a bodyguard, then he is very successful."

"Yes, yes, yes, I think so too." Xiaoshi's father, who was driving, also agreed.

Si Zhuo's face darkened.

Xiao Shi pursed her lips and dared not speak.

Finally, considering her own job, she quickly stopped them, "Mom and Dad, shut up. If you keep talking, your three thousand yuan monthly pension will be gone."

"What?"

"Why?"

"Daughter, you don't want to support us anymore?"

The two old men had sad faces in tears, and all of a sudden they felt nothing left to live for.

"If you keep talking, I, your daughter, will lose my job. This... is Mr. Si, the one who pays me now. The pretty lady next to him is his wife."

“…………”

“…”

Xiaoshi's mother looked out the car window awkwardly.

Xiaoshi's father stepped on the accelerator awkwardly, just wanting to get home quickly and escape from the car.

Qiu Manman: "Is it fierce? I don't think it is fierce."

Xiao Shi's parents said in unison, "Not fierce, not fierce at all. The old man and I have never seen such a handsome and elegant boy."

"Girl, you have a good eye for men. Men are very kind."

"Thanks to you for taking care of our little Shi and giving her a job in Beijing."

Xiao Shi's hanging heart finally settled down.

I guess Mr. Si won't deduct her salary, right?

If you feel uncomfortable, you can just scold her, but you must not deduct her salary.

Xinghua Village is in the mountains, surrounded by mountains. There seems to be a waterfall on the mountain in the distance, but the flow is very small now. When the flood season comes, the flow of water in the waterfall may be very large, and the scene will be more shocking and beautiful.

"Xiao Shi, the environment here in your home is very good."

Xiao Shi scratched her head and said, "Is it good? I've been watching it for more than 20 years and I'm tired of it."

Qiu Manman's comment: "Born in a blessed environment, but not knowing how to appreciate it."

"I used to think that when I made enough money to retire, I would buy a house in a beautiful rural area in the south and grow some food in my spare time."

“I also want to plant lots and lots of flowers.”

Autumn is coming and I turn around to see the colorful backyard.

When I got closer, I saw it was a small garden.

There are many beautiful flowers blooming in the garden. It has just rained, and the raindrops are sticking to the petals, making them look fresh and juicy.

"Just like your parents."

"support!"

Qiu Manman pointed to a row of bougainvilleas in her backyard that had not been taken care of but were growing exceptionally well.

“Is this bougainvillea?”

"Yes, it seems to have been pulled from the roadside two years ago. My mother threw it into a corner and left it alone. It grew on its own."

"????"

[Do you in the South have to have this kind of stuff?! ]

[Bougainvillea, where is your pride? You are not like this in the north! ]

"There's also the embroidery ball over there. My mother picked it up and its roots were all rotten. She just planted it in the soil and watered it, and it came back to life."

Xiao Shi pointed to the location of the embroidery ball.

Qiu Manman looked at her with envy.

"I follow a lot of flower bloggers, all of whom are in the south. It doesn't seem to be a coincidence."

Everything grows easily in the South.

The right time and the right place.

"Xiao Shi, come quickly, there are guests."

When her mother called her from inside the house, Xiao Shi hurried into the house.

Qiu Manman walked slowly to the door but did not go in. Instead, she stood outside observing the osmanthus tree.

Birds even build nests on the branches of osmanthus trees.

"Auntie, I really don't want to get married."

"Stop introducing me to someone. This is already the nineteenth time you've introduced someone to me. Aren't you tired?"

The aunt was irritated by her impatient attitude.

"How dare you talk like that, you little bastard? I don't want to see you grow old alone."

"Wait a minute, the man is very sincere and came with me. He is outside."

The aunt took her hand familiarly.

"As soon as you speak, he comes in to see you."

"???"

Xiao Shi's face was full of resistance.

Xiaoshi's mother and father had already found a place to hide.

They knew very well that Xiaoshi didn't want to find a boyfriend. She had her own ideas and would not get married unless she met the right one.

Now her income is very high, and such a girl can choose others in the marriage market.

But this relative just likes to act as a matchmaker, and he keeps refusing the offer.

Due to their relatives' consideration, they simply couldn't refuse.

Xiao Shi's parents came out from the back and walked all the way to the front door, where they saw the long autumn under the osmanthus tree.

"Little girl, come in and sit down."

"I can't sit still, I like to run around." Qiu Manman asked curiously, "Why is her aunt so persistent?"

"That's right! Forget about that. The ones I introduced to our Xiaoshi are all unworthy of her. If it weren't for the fact that she is our relative, I really want to beat her out."

When Xiaoshi's father talked about this incident, he felt very disappointed.

Xiao Shi's mother: "Be patient. This is probably the twentieth time I have failed to introduce someone to someone."

"I just heard that Auntie asked the man to come along."

There was indeed a black car parked outside the little poet's yard. The door of the back seat opened and a man about 1.8 meters tall got out.

The man has fairly regular facial features.

I took out a lot of gifts from the trunk. They were not expensive, but they were thoughtfully designed and were things that the elderly could use.

Xiaoshi's father and mother looked at him with scrutiny.

Then, have a conversation.

"This person seems different from the previous one."

"She's pretty, one of the best in our Xinghua Village."

"Which village are you from?"

Xiao Shi's mother rolled up her sleeves and said, "Really? Are there any young men in these villages that I haven't seen?"

1.80m tall man: "Hello, uncle and aunt, I'm sorry to bother you. I brought you some food and drinks."

"Hahahahaha thank you."

"Thank you."

The 1.80-foot-tall man walked in, wiping the sweat from his palms nervously, "Xiao Shi, do you still remember me? We talked before when you were interviewed for the civil service exam."

"What?"

Xiao Shi was stunned.

The aunt said, "Yes, Xiaoshi, now you can trust my judgment."

"It was this handsome guy who contacted me and wanted me to find an opportunity to introduce you two to each other."

"ha?"

Xiaoshi was even more confused.

"I did take the civil service exam, but I failed the interview. Did I talk to you? How come I don't have any memory of that?"

"Maybe I was too ugly at the time. I was very lazy in preparing for the exam. I'm really embarrassed that you saw me at my worst."

The man spoke humbly and politely, and no one could find fault with him.

Xiao Shi is very picky.

When I see a 1.80-meter-tall guy, I don’t know how to pick him out.

"We can be friends, but forget about the romance. Don't blame me for being blunt. I really don't have any desire for a romance."

The 1.80-meter-tall man became anxious, but quickly covered it up.

"I know you like relationships to develop naturally. We can start as friends."

The aunt noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and also realized that Xiaoshi was not completely unacceptable to this person.

Everything is still negotiable.

"Xiao Shi, let me tell you, you should hold on to good men. Women are worthless when they get older."

"You are 25 years old this year, which is the golden age for women to get pregnant. After this year, your blooming period will be over."

The aunt used her eloquent tongue.

Xiao Shi listened quietly, veins popping up on her forehead, and tried her best to tolerate it.

The aunt didn't notice Xiaoshi's patience and continued to introduce the story in a hurry.

"He is 27 years old. I won't go into detail about his height and weight, you can see it all."

"He's just graduated from college. This guy is quite handsome. He said that he's been secretly loved by many girls, but he hasn't met his destined lady yet. He's never been in love, and his first love is still there."

Xiao Shi was skeptical, "Twenty-seven years old and never had a love relationship?"

1.80m tall man: “No.”

Xiao Shi just smiled and stopped questioning.

Auntie: "Your future partner is taking the civil service exam."

"What?" Xiao Shi counted on her fingers, "I remember that I took the civil service exam two years ago. You've been taking it for two years and still haven't passed?"

The 1.80-meter-tall man lowered his head in shame, "It's not that my mentality was not good before, it's not that I don't have the ability."

“I understand.”

Xiao Shi signaled him not to explain any further.

Auntie: "He has a car, but his parents will buy him a house after he gets married."

"He's a bit of a smoker and smokes all the time. If you mind, he can quit."

"He hopes to find a girl who is obedient, filial, and not materialistic, so that they can have two children, a boy and a girl, to make it a good family."

"Xiao Shi, men like this are high-quality men here. He chose you. You are so lucky."

Qiu Manman, who was outside the door, glanced at Xiaoshi's parents who were angry but dared not say anything.

"Forget it, I still have to take action."

Qiu Manman walked in clapping.

“It’s wonderful.”

The 1.8-meter-tall man's eyes were glued to Qiu Manman, and he suddenly said, "You are Qiu Manman."

"It's me."

The 1.80-meter-tall man was very excited, "Can you take a photo with me?"

"No." Qiu Manman rejected him coldly and ruthlessly.

The 1.80-meter-tall boy refused to give up. "I've watched your variety show and even liked your video clips. Are you celebrities so dismissive of your fans?"

"You're talking about a celebrity, but I'm not a celebrity."

The 1.80-meter-tall man had a gloomy face and said nothing.

Qiu Manman cleared her throat and pulled Xiaoshi behind her. "Xiaoshi, Sister Manman is starting the class. Sit down and listen to me."

Xiao Shi: “Okay.”

"This lesson is: Is this man marryable?"

Qiu Manman walked over to the 1.80-meter-tall man and took a look. "First of all, we saw your height and appearance."

"You look very ordinary. You can't be found among a thousand men."

"I'm 1.80 meters tall!!!" the 1.80 meter tall man said firmly.

Qiu Manman thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes, I am 1.8 meters tall with shoes on."

“…………”

The 1.80-meter-tall man hesitated to speak.

"Twenty-seven years old, says he has never been in love."

"What? Do you think you are Si Zhuo, who can say you are not in love? Well, even if you are not in love, you always have a sexual partner."

"Look at your complexion. Even powder can't hide your kidney deficiency."

“…………”

Xiao Shi: "Oh my god, Sister Manman, how did you figure that out?"

【Nonsense.】

[There are not many men as clean and self-disciplined as Si Zhuo in this book. The number of good men can be counted on one hand.]

[Is my first love still there? I laughed so hard that I almost died. I laughed so hard that I broke the wall. My neighbors and I looked at each other in bewilderment.]

"Do you think buying a house after marriage can become your couple's property? Wrong, wrong, wrong."

"He might even ask that the house be in your name and your family pay for the renovation."

"That makes sense." Xiao Shi suddenly understood. All the strange things she had felt before were now cleared up.

Auntie: “…”

What a smart little girl! She has such a lively mind.
