Jiang Feng was born in an ordinary rural family. He is the youngest child in the family. He has an older sister, Jiang Xue, who is two years older than him, and an older brother, Jiang Fei, who is four years older than him.
After graduating from university, my sister found a job in Jiangcheng. Although the salary was not high, only more than 5,000 yuan a month, the work was easy and not stressful.
After graduating from high school, my eldest brother went to work in Guangdong Province. It was not until this year when the huge industrial park located in their village began to recruit workers that he quit his job and came back to apply for the job. He is currently working in the industrial park near his home.
The salary is better than his sister's, about 6,000 to 7,000 yuan a month. In addition, he eats and lives at home, so the expenses are very low. It is much better than when he worked in Guangdong Province.
As for my parents, they are authentic farmers and there is nothing much to say about them.
It is said that the emperor loves his eldest son and the people love his youngest son. As the youngest child in the family, Jiang Feng has always been the treasure in his parents' hands. Now that he has returned from graduation, Jiang's mother is so happy that she prepared a table of delicious food to welcome her little son.
While eating, Jiang's mother kept serving food to Jiang Feng.
"Xiao Feng, these are your favorite chicken wings!"
"Xiao Feng, these are your favorite chicken feet."
"Xiao Feng, this is the chicken back meat you like to eat."
"Xiao Feng, this is your favorite..."
Jiang Feng ate the chicken bite after bite. The chicken was raised by his own family and was fed with corn, rice and other grains, and was free-range. The quality of the meat was incomparable to those feed-fed chickens sold outside. It tasted so delicious in his mouth!
Seeing that there was no more room for the chicken in the bowl, Jiang Feng said while gnawing on the chicken feet: "Mom, you should eat quickly too. I'm not a guest, so you don't have to keep serving me food. I can serve myself whatever I want."
Jiang's mother said, "Then you should eat more. You've lost weight!"
Jiang Feng nodded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "I know, Mom, hurry up and eat, or the food will get cold!"
Only then did Jiang's mother eat her meal with satisfaction.
Jiang Fei was already used to such scenes. He took a big sip of the wine and asked, "Xiao Feng, you have graduated now, what are your plans next?"
Before Jiang Feng could answer, his father continued, "In my opinion, Xiao Feng, you should just go to work in the industrial park like your brother. You can work right next to your home and get a good salary. This is much better than working in Guangdong Province. With your education and your brother's recommendation, it shouldn't be difficult to get a job in the industrial park."
The industrial park that Jiang's father mentioned is a 700,000-ton lithium battery new energy material integrated industrial base project that was settled in Qinghe Town three years ago. With a total investment of 130 billion yuan, it is the largest investment project in the history of Bailiang County and even Yulin City.
The entire project will be built in three phases, covering a total area of 15,000 acres. After the project is fully completed and put into production, it will achieve annual operating income of 200 billion yuan, profits and taxes of 28 billion yuan, and create approximately 25,000 new jobs.
It can be said to be a giant project in Yulin City.
Jiang Fei nodded and said, "It's really not difficult. The industrial park is recruiting workers now. Even without my recommendation, Xiao Feng can easily get a job with her academic qualifications."
Jiang Feng spat out the almost-eaten chicken feet bone onto the table and said, "There's no rush to work in the industrial park. I plan to try other jobs first. If that path doesn't work, I'll consider working in the industrial park later."
Mother Jiang asked with concern: "Xiao Feng, have you thought about it? What kind of job do you plan to do?"
Jiang Feng knew that he couldn't hide this from his family, so he said directly: "I want to be a matchmaker!"
Father Jiang: “…”
Mother Jiang: “…”
Jiang Fei: “…”
Jiang's mother frowned and asked, "Xiao Feng, I didn't hear you clearly just now. What did you say you were going to do?"
Jiang Feng said calmly: "Mom, I mean I want to be a matchmaker!"
Hearing this, Jiang's father couldn't help but slammed his chopsticks on the table and said, "Xiao Feng, don't be a matchmaker, don't be a guarantor, don't be a matchmaker for three generations, haven't you heard of this saying? You are a college student, and you want to be a matchmaker at such a young age. What are you thinking?"
Jiang's mother also said earnestly: "Xiao Feng, although it is true that matchmakers can make a lot of money in this era, just like Aunt Li from the next village, who made nearly 50,000 yuan just by matchmaking in less than a month during the Spring Festival last year. But this money is really not something that everyone can make, not to mention that you are so young, even if you want to be a matchmaker, no one will look for you!"
Jiang Fei couldn't have imagined that his younger brother would have such a weird idea. He couldn't help but say, "Xiao Feng, what on earth are you thinking? From ancient times to the present, matchmakers are always older married people. I've never heard of an unmarried guy in his early twenties being a matchmaker. Your idea is really unreliable."
Jiang Feng expected his family's reaction. He did not argue, but just said, "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, don't worry, I just want to try it. If it doesn't work, I will listen to you and work in the industrial park!"
Father Jiang looked a little unhappy and said, "Why try this? It's obviously not feasible. If you don't want to become a laughing stock of the whole village, just go to work in the industrial park."
Jiang's mother also advised: "Yes, Xiaofeng, you really have to listen to your father. It's not that easy to be a matchmaker. Let's not talk about whether someone wants you to be a matchmaker. Even if you successfully match them up, if they live happily after marriage, it's fine. If they are not happy after marriage, they will resent you."
Jiang Fei echoed, "Xiao Feng, Mom is right. There are many examples of matchmakers becoming enemies. This is not something that ordinary people can do."
"Dad, Mom, Brother, do you think I'm stupid?"
Jiang Feng said seriously, "I am a graduate of a key university after all. I am not unreliable in choosing a job. I have my reasons for wanting to be a matchmaker. I will set a deadline with you. If I still can't achieve anything by the end of the year, I will listen to you in terms of what job I do in the future. Is that okay?"
After these words were spoken, Jiang's father and the other two could not help but look at each other.
Jiang Feng had said so much, and they really had nothing more to say.
Mother Jiang thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Feng, since you've said this, I won't stop you. Your brother is still single, so why don't you try to be a matchmaker for him?"
Jiang Fei's eyes widened when he heard this. How did he get involved? He quickly shook his head and said, "Mom, what a bad idea you are coming up with. I don't want Xiao Feng to be my matchmaker. If I want to get married, I will find one myself."
Jiang's mother said directly, "It's been seven or eight years since you graduated from high school, and you haven't even brought a female friend home. How dare you say you can find one yourself? If you were more motivated, I would have become a grandmother a long time ago!"
Jiang Fei was speechless and didn't even have the confidence to refute.
At this time, Jiang's father agreed and said, "That's a good idea. Let's use your brother's marriage as a training ground to see if you are suitable for this job."
Three soul-searching questions flashed through Jiang Fei's mind in an instant, and he was completely speechless!
Jiang Feng, who had magical powers, smiled confidently and said, "No problem, big brother's lifelong affairs are in my hands. I will definitely find a perfect wife for you."
Jiang Fei sighed, picked up the half-cup of beer on the table and drank it all. Since his younger brother wanted to make trouble, let him do it. He had given up struggling. What he needed to do next was to find fault with him. He wanted to make his younger brother understand that being a matchmaker was not as simple as he imagined.
Although Jiang's father and mother both felt that Jiang Feng had no future as a matchmaker, since their youngest son wanted to spend half a year trying it out, they as parents would not stop him.
After all, people don’t have to worry about food and clothing these days, so even if their youngest son doesn’t want to work, they can still support him.
