Among all the relatives, my aunt's family returned to Shenzhen on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

After my aunt and her family left, when Jiang's father and mother came to the confinement center, Huang Lingwei, who had gained a little weight, smiled and said, "Dad, Mom, you've been away from home for so many days. I guess the door of our house has been broken down by people looking for you as matchmakers. There are so many people taking care of me and the child. You don't have to worry. Just go back first. I'll take the child back to worship our ancestors after I'm done with the confinement."

Jiang's mother smiled and nodded when she heard this: "Well, then we will go back tomorrow. You stay here and listen to the advice of the professionals and take good care of your health."

Jiang's father also nodded, they really couldn't do anything here.

The difference between people is so great. In their era, if a woman gave birth to a child and met a good mother-in-law and husband, she could still have a decent confinement period.

If you meet a bad mother-in-law or husband, you will really suffer. After you give birth to a child, no one will help you take care of the child, no one will help you cook or wash clothes, you have to do everything by yourself.

Just think about it, you just gave birth to a baby tonight, and you have to get out of bed the next day to cook, wash clothes, and take care of the newborn baby. If you were a mother in this era, you would go crazy.

Even in this day and age, if a woman marries into a bad family, although it won't be as exaggerated as in the past, the mother at most doesn't have to cook during the confinement period, but she still can't avoid taking care of the child, washing her own underwear, etc.

This is actually the main cause of conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Postpartum grudges are no joke and can make many daughters-in-law hate their mother-in-law for the rest of their lives.

Therefore, mothers-in-law really need to be careful. It’s okay to be excessive in other matters, as there is always room for redemption in the future. However, they must take good care of their daughters-in-law during the confinement period. Otherwise, once the grudge is formed, there will be no room for easing in this lifetime.

Such a situation will naturally not occur in wealthy families. For example, Jiang Xue before, and Huang Lingwei now, they have professional confinement nannies to take care of them during their confinement. The only time they need to trouble them is when they are feeding their children, and they don't have to take care of them at other times.

In a word, during the confinement period, they only need to eat well, sleep well and take good care of their bodies, and they don’t have to worry about anything else.

Therefore, in this case, it doesn’t really matter whether the parents-in-law are there or not. Their presence is just a way of showing their appreciation for their daughter-in-law.

So, on the ninth day of the first lunar month, after saying hello to their daughter-in-law and their parents-in-law, Jiang's father and mother returned to Longshan Village under the escort of Guo Bingbing.

After Jiang's father and mother went back, the matchmaking agency officially started operating a few days later. Naturally, the matchmakers who came back from vacation would form a team to visit the proprietress and the underboss at the confinement center.

Li Xiaohua held the little boss carefully. Babies are generally not very good-looking when they are just born, but after more than half a month of growth, this little guy is getting more and more handsome.

The more Li Xiaohua looked at her, the more she liked her. She couldn't help but envy her and said, "Boss lady, you are really good at giving birth. The little boss has the advantages of both you and the boss. When she grows up, even if we don't mention her family background, she won't have to worry about her life just by relying on her face!"

Wang Lin agreed, "That's true. Even if our boss doesn't live off women and does any business, there are countless female customers who are willing to take care of his business. It's hard not to make money."

Zhang Dan nodded seriously and said, "He is indeed handsome. When the little boss grows up, he will definitely be more handsome than the boss. They say that sons look like their mothers. Weiwei, you really deserve credit for this!"

Hearing the flattering words from her three classmates and besties, Huang Lingwei smiled until her eyes narrowed. She waved her hands and said, "You are exaggerating too much. This child changes every day. Who knows what he will look like when he grows up? Anyway, as long as he doesn't look worse than his father, I will be satisfied!"

Wang Lin carefully took the young boss from Li Xiaohua's hands and continued with a smile: "Although the child is still young and his appearance has not yet been finalized, there are almost no flaws in the child. He will definitely be handsome when he grows up."

Li Xiaohua and Zhang Dan also praised him. Although there was some flattery in their words, most of them were true. This young boss is indeed good-looking.

Huang Lingwei has heard a lot of such flattery during this period of time, but the two people in front of her were her best classmates and girlfriends in college. When they said the same flattery, Huang Lingwei found it particularly touching.

…

A small town in Hunan Province.

Because the daughter brought her granddaughter back before the New Year, the Li family had a very lively New Year, no longer as deserted as in previous years.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Li knew that their daughter was divorced, it did not affect their mood for the New Year at all. In fact, they were in a better mood. After all, they had strongly opposed their daughter's marriage in the first place. Now that she was divorced, they were not gloating, but they could not feel sad for their daughter either.

In their view, their daughter's divorce is not a bad thing, it is a relief.

The only thing that made them feel ashamed was that the neighbors knew that their daughter was the result of a divorce and would inevitably talk about her behind her back.

But these are all small matters.

The most important thing is that their daughter has returned to China. Even if she remarries, she probably won't marry a foreigner. This is what makes Li's father and mother most happy.

After all, their daughter had married and moved to Japan, which was equivalent to losing her because they were unwilling to go to Japan and their daughter refused to come back for some unknown reason.

If this continues, they will only see their daughter a few times in their lifetime. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have lost their daughter.

But now that my daughter has returned to China, things are different. As long as we are in China, it is easy to meet her no matter where she marries.

If I could marry locally, it would be an even better surprise.

Not only did Mr. and Mrs. Li have a very comfortable New Year, but Li Shuixiu also felt the atmosphere of the Spring Festival again after several years. In the previous few years, she had been trying hard to integrate into Japanese society, but had never been able to do so. There was always an inexplicable barrier.

Now that she has returned to her motherland, the feeling of comfort has made her realize that a foreign country is just a foreign country and cannot give her the same sense of belonging as her motherland.

After the Lantern Festival, Li Shuixiu was busy looking for a kindergarten for her daughter. After all, their place was just a small town, and the kindergarten's teaching staff was limited and could not meet her requirements.

Don’t think that kindergarten is not important. A good kindergarten can lay a good foundation for children. Compared with children from other ordinary kindergartens, they will definitely win at the starting line.

In this regard, Li's father and mother also agreed with their daughter's idea.

Education in our country is really polarized. Some parents don't take it seriously at all. If their children can study, then they study. If they can't, then so be it. Parents won't interfere.

Some parents, however, attach great importance to it and accompany their children from kindergarten all the way to university. In the eyes of these parents, children's education is the top priority in the family and other matters have to take second place.

Li Shuixiu is obviously the latter. Her daughter is only four years old and already knows three languages. She naturally would not let her daughter go to an ordinary kindergarten and bury her talent.

Finally, after discussing with her parents, Li Shuixiu took her daughter to the provincial capital and found a bilingual kindergarten with very strong teaching staff for her.

Although the money she got from the divorce was enough for her to buy an apartment in the provincial capital, Li Shuixiu had no intention of buying a house for the time being. Instead, she chose to rent a house in a community near the kindergarten.

Naturally, Li's father and mother also followed. They didn't actually do much back home, and the couple's pension was enough for them to live a very comfortable life.

Now that their granddaughter goes to kindergarten in the provincial capital, they naturally have to come over to help with cooking, picking up and taking care of the child, so that their daughter can be free.

After settling everything down, Li's mother said, "A Xiu, just leave the child to me and your father. You are still young, you should find something to do."

Li Shuixiu nodded and said, "I know. I had a complete plan before I returned to China. Now Ling'er's problem has been solved. Next, I plan to open a Japanese food restaurant in the provincial capital. What do you think, Mom and Dad?"

Li's father and mother were not too surprised that their daughter wanted to open a Japanese restaurant. After all, their daughter had lived in Japan for several years and learned to cook Japanese cuisine for several years. Now she returned to China to open a Japanese restaurant, which was a very correct idea.

Although they dislike or even hate this country, they cannot treat everything related to this country as a blanket rule. If they do that, they will simply not be able to live there.

After all, if you really count them, slippers, flip-flops, plastic umbrellas, airbags, car navigation, laptops, instant noodles, blue light LEDs (light emitting diodes), automatic ticket machines, dry batteries, rice cookers, gastroscopes, mechanical pencils, fully automatic mahjong tables, variable frequency air conditioners, CDs, VCDs, bluerays, Walkmans, etc., all these daily necessities were invented by the Japanese.

If it really is a one-size-fits-all approach, then life would be unbearable!

Of course, the same goes for the reverse side. Any country in this world that dares to say it will not use things invented by the Chinese will not be able to survive either.

Father Li said, "Your mother and I don't know how to do business. Anyway, you have been abroad and have a lot of experience. If you think this business can be done, then go for it."

Li's mother also encouraged him, "Yes, your father is right. If you think this business can be done, just go for it boldly. I and your father are at home, so you don't have to worry about anything."

Li Shuixiu nodded and said, "Yes, I know, but before I open a shop and do business, I plan to go to the capital of Guangxi Province first."

Li's mother asked, "Why are you going to the capital of Guangxi Province?"

Li Shuixiu said, "Dad, Mom, I actually wanted to divorce two years ago, but I kept holding off because of various concerns. The reason I was able to divorce last year and come back to spend the New Year with you was mainly because I met a compatriot from China when I was in Japan. It was his persuasion that made me decide to divorce."

Upon hearing this, both Mr. and Mrs. Li showed surprised expressions.

Because they all hated the Japanese son-in-law, when their daughter came back from the divorce, they did not ask about the details. They just wanted to know the result; the process was not important to them.

But now, after hearing their daughter talk about it, they realized that a compatriot in China played a big role in her divorce.

So, Father Li nodded and said, "Since they have helped you a lot, now that you are divorced and returning home, you really have to thank them."

Li Shuixiu smiled and said, "Dad, this time I'm not only going to thank him, but I'm also going to ask him to help me find a suitable partner for me, because he has another identity, which is a matchmaker who specializes in helping people connect with each other."

Mother Li said quickly, "A Xiu, just take the gift and thank him. Don't worry about asking a matchmaker to find you a partner. Your father and I already had a plan. We didn't rush to tell you about it because we saw that you had just gotten divorced."

Father Li continued, "A Xiu, you have been married in Japan for a few years, and I am afraid you don't know that there is a very remarkable matchmaker in our country. It just so happens that this matchmaker is also from Guangxi Province and has opened a matchmaking agency in the provincial capital. If you want to find a partner, let your mother accompany you to Guangxi Province!"

Li Shuixiu couldn't help but say happily: "Dad, Mom, is there a possibility that we are talking about the same person?"

Mr. and Mrs. Li were stunned when they heard this. It was really possible.

Li's mother asked, "A Xiu, what's the name of the compatriot you met in Japan?"

Li Shuixiu smiled and said, "His name is Jiang Feng, and his other nickname is Master Jiang. He is the owner of the Happy Marriage Agency. I wonder if the matchmaker you are talking about is him?"

Mr. and Mrs. Li couldn't help but look at each other and sighed in unison.

Mother Li smiled and said, "So, Ah Xiu, the person you met in Japan was really Master Jiang. No wonder you chose to divorce and come back. You must have listened to Master Jiang. He is not only a matchmaker, but also a master of fortune-telling. Your future happiness is guaranteed if you can meet him!"

Father Li said with emotion: "Since we knew the name of Master Jiang, we have wanted to go to Guangxi Province to ask Master Jiang to calculate your marriage more than once, but since you are already married, it is a done deal, so we did not go to calculate it for you.

Because based on your previous personality, even if we calculated that you and that little Japanese guy were not suitable, you would not listen to us. You might even think we were lying to you!"

When Li Shuixiu heard her father mention this, she said with some guilt: "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry. I was too willful in the past. I had little experience and was self-righteous, which led to a big mistake."

Mother Li quickly comforted him, "Forget it, it's all over, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go find Master Jiang this time and ask him to help find a good partner, and then we can live a good life in the future!"

Li Shuixiu nodded and said, "Well, after this failed marriage, I now know exactly what I want. Plus, with Master Jiang's matchmaking skills that never go wrong, I believe my future marriage will be happy."

Mother Li smiled and said, "It's good to have confidence. Since you and Master Jiang are old acquaintances, there is no need for me to accompany you to Guangxi Province!"
