Chapter 160 Some are happy, some are sad



Sha Zhu and his group of single men received the notification and all came to the backyard, while their family members watched from the side.

Upon arriving in the backyard, they saw a group of women, and the group of single men's eyes lit up immediately as they began searching for suitable candidates among the crowd.

These women, having all experienced hardship, knew that such opportunities were rare and were also observing these men, hoping to find a good match.

at the same time.

Those who were to adopt the children were also notified and were asked to come to a meeting room in the backyard to officially meet the children.

If you meet a child you like, you can go up and chat with them to help them overcome any barriers, accept you better, and integrate into the new family as soon as possible.

But a new problem has arisen: everyone wants a boy, which is not surprising, as it's for the purpose of carrying on the family line.

This has led to situations where several families simultaneously want the same child.

The neighborhood committee already had a solution for this situation: let the children choose for themselves.

The same problem arose at the matchmaking event.

If a woman is even slightly pretty, several men will inevitably vie to date her.

Faced with this situation, Lin Wencui and the others were prepared. They called the girl aside and asked her who she had taken a fancy to, and then she would talk to that person.

If it's a good match, get the marriage certificate on the spot; if not, move on to the next one.

"Aunt Wencui, could you please help me out? I think that girl named Dong'er is quite nice. Could you help me set her up with her?"

Looking at the girl named Dong'er chatting with others, Sha Zhu said with a resentful expression.

"Zhu Zi, I can't help you with this. They're having a great time talking, and I can't break them up. Why don't you keep looking, and if you find someone you both like, I'll help you match them up."

Lin Wencui said helplessly.

We can't start this, otherwise we won't be able to do the rest of the work. We can only blame Sha Zhu for growing too fast; no one wants him!

Yan Jiecheng, standing to the side, wore a gloating expression. Who told him that he had also taken a liking to Dong'er!

He only felt at peace when no one else could have it.

Although he is better looking than Shazhu, his inability to have children is a major flaw!

Today's matchmaking event is completely open about all the information, so no one would dare to cover it up for him.

Seeing the matchmaking event in full swing, Sun Zhengguo couldn't help but exclaim: "This is much better than 'If You Are the One,' with less gimmicks and more sincerity!"

Twenty minutes later, the first couple was chosen. Lin Wencui was surprised to find that the couple was from her own courtyard.

That's right, the first person to successfully hold hands with was none other than Chen Xiaosan from the backyard.

To be fair, Chen Xiaosan is quite a character. He knows his disadvantages: his family is too poor and his job is unstable.

He didn't compete with the others for Dong'er, but instead chose a girl who was reasonably good-looking.

He made a promise to the girl that as long as he had food to eat, he would never let her go hungry.

Faced with such simple yet practical language, the girl named Zhou Xiaoya was moved and immediately agreed to Chen Xiaosan's proposal.

So the two got their marriage certificate on the spot, which was incredibly fast.

The leaders present were quite pleased. After learning about the specific circumstances of Chen Xiaosan's family, they awarded a temporary worker position as a special reward to encourage the first couple's success.

Chen Xiaosan never expected that he would not only have a wife, but also a job. Although it was a temporary job, it was much better than doing odd jobs.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Chen Xiaosan didn't know how to thank his leader, so he could only shout.

"Long live the Communist Party of China! Long live the great leader Chairman Mao!"

This is to express our gratitude to the Party.

Everyone was delighted to hear this and joined in the cheering.

This scene was witnessed by a visiting reporter. What better news could there be?

The excited reporter quickly took out his camera, pressed the shutter, and captured this touching moment.

Chen Xiaosan's success ignited everyone's enthusiasm, and within just ten minutes, several more couples succeeded.

As more and more people successfully paired up, the number of girls on the field decreased.

Sha Zhu and Yan Jiecheng were also getting anxious, but there was no use in being anxious. Dating is a two-way street; you can't expect one person to be so enthusiastic!

Gradually, the two men became completely disappointed because there were no girls left on the field.

"Aunt Wencui, what should we do?"

The two families approached Lin Wencui and sought her help together.

"It's alright, don't be discouraged. There are plenty of girls in the backyard! The higher-ups will send more people this afternoon, and even more girls will come to participate in the matchmaking event."

The two families' moods improved upon hearing this. They were surprised to find another event in the afternoon, so they discussed it and decided to go home first and come back in the afternoon.

After the two families left, Lin Wencui was about to have a sip of tea when she saw Yi Zhonghai and his wife walking out of the next room.

The couple, each holding one child's hand, wore broad smiles, showing how happy they were.

"Uncle Yi, you've succeeded, but what's the deal with these two kids?"

Lin Wencui asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"This old lady should thank your Zhengguo. If he hadn't let us in, these two kids would probably have missed out on us."

Yi Zhonghai feels fortunate whenever he thinks of his two children.

The two children are a brother and sister. The 9-year-old sister is named Xiaofang, and the 8-year-old brother is named Xiaobao. Their entire family has passed away.

This year, the village suffered a drought and could no longer afford to feed them. In order to survive, the two siblings took the last bit of dry food given to them by the village chief and, after going through countless hardships, risked their lives to reach Beijing.

Almost everyone who came to adopt a child today had their eyes on Xiao Bao, but Xiao Bao is a stubborn child. Whoever wants to adopt him must bring his sister along.

Adopting another child might be a burden for others, but for Yi Zhonghai, it's no big deal.

In the end, Yi Zhonghai successfully took advantage of the situation and adopted both the brother and sister, making a perfect family with a son and a daughter.

"Congratulations! You've finally achieved your goal. By the way, you haven't registered yet, have you? Adopting a child is different from getting married. You can register the child's birth and receive a small amount of grain rations."

"Really? We can still get a small amount of rationed food?"

Aunt Yi asked in confusion.

If those people had known, they probably wouldn't have had a chance to adopt those two children.

"Of course it's true. District Chief Wu just said it himself, and those who get married will also receive a subsidy of 30 jin of grain coupons."

"Okay, thank you so much, ma'am! We'll go register your household right away."

"Don't be shy, you should go now!"

After Yi Zhonghai and his wife left, Lin Wencui finally had some free time, and her colleague Xiao Chen quickly handed her a teacup.

"Director Lin, have some tea. Your mouth hasn't stopped all morning, you must be thirsty."

"Thank you, Xiao Chen. I was really thirsty."

Lin Wencui took the teacup, drank a few sips, and then remembered her children.

"Xiao Chen, how many children do I have?"

"Oh! You were busy just now. The kids went back to cook and said they'd come back this afternoon when they were at work."

"I understand. Let's take advantage of this break and eat quickly! We have a lot of work to do at noon, and if we delay any longer, we might not even have time to eat."

"All right!"

The group took their lunchboxes, found an empty room, and ate without even heating up the food.

The other staff members of the subdistrict office were basically the same. Although they were eating cold food, they had no complaints and were all very motivated.

Therefore, it is precisely because of the efforts of this generation that an incredibly solid foundation has been laid for the prosperity of future generations.
