179 ChDaily Melon-Eating as a Matchmaker in the 80s
在八零當媒婆的吃瓜日常
Ming Xi accidentally transmigrated to the 1980s, becoming the daughter of a famous matchmaker. She arrived just as someone showed up to cause trouble, claiming her mother's introduction led to an impotent male partner. Ming Xi immediately took the man to the hospital for an examination.
Just like that, Ming Xi stumbled into the matchmaking business. On her first day as the young matchmaker, a female comrade awkwardly said she already had a boyfriend and wanted free love, not an arranged marriage. Ming Xi immediately introduced her to a handsome young man, and the woman, blushing, promptly broke up with her "pig-head" boyfriend.
On her second day, a male comrade whose family disapproved of his marriage asked for her help. She penned a moving and deeply romantic love story and sent it to the newspaper. His mother cried after reading it, saying she didn't want to be a wicked mother-in-law who broke up a couple.
On her third day, because her matchmaking work was so successful, the neighborhood committee and the Women's Federation came knocking, offering olive branches.
Just as the young matchmaker was busy eating melons (crossed out), and her matchmaking career was booming, the youngest son of the Wei family from the alley came to her, saying he wanted her to find him a partner. Ming Xi pulled out her files, just about to ask what kind of person he liked, when Wei Ning raised an eyebrow: "I like someone just like you."
To keep this big client, the young matchmaker sacrificed herself and agreed to a blind date with Wei Ning. Unexpectedly, Wei Ning turned out to be a mama's boy, constantly saying "My mom said..." "My mom said..." Ming Xi gritted her teeth.
What's there to show off? Who isn't a mama's boy? She retorted, "My mom said that a man who constantly says 'my mom said' is not worth having." Wei Ning replied without hesitation, "Mom is right." Ming Xi: "??? Who are you calling mom? That's my mom, my mom!"
