When Qiao's mother talks about her two children, she has a lot to say. Sometimes she doesn't know if she can see them settle down before she dies.
Old Lady Xia: "Qiao Yi is a good child in every way. Does she bother you?"
Mother Qiao glared at Qiao Yi angrily again. "This child, a few days ago I told her about the conditions of a gay man. His family conditions are not bad, he is also energetic, his parents are honest, and the whole family works. What a great condition, but this child refused to meet him, thinking that she was still young and there was no need to get married so early."
Mrs. Xia: "That's true. Life isn't as comfortable after marriage as it is now. I even have conflicts with my parents, not to mention my in-laws."
Qiao's mother: "But girls have to take advantage of their youth to have a chance to pick a good one. When they get older, there will be fewer people to choose from."
Chen Xiangbei interrupted, "Aunt, why don't you tell me the specific requirements of the person you introduced me to. You might as well let me find out instead of listening to the matchmaker. As for my relationship with Sister Qiao Yi, it's just a matter of a word."
When Qiao's mother heard this, she realized how useful Chen Xiangbei was. Yes, it's better to listen to Xiangbei than to the matchmaker. He has a good heart, so he can't be wrong.
She ignored Qiao Yi's objection and kept talking about the other person.
After she finished speaking, Chen Xiangbei felt full. He filled a bowl of soup and ate it, then said, "According to my observations these days, the matchmaker said that he was tall and white. Even if his family is a worker, now that he is tall, strong and white, it means that he eats a lot and works little, so he must be fat.
It is said that his sister is a worker but has not married. With such good conditions, she either has a problem with her personality or her health, otherwise most male comrades would not fail to notice such a good female comrade. Moreover, if his sister has not married, it means that Sister Qiao Yi will have an extra mother-in-law if she marries.
My parents are honest and simple, but they also say that my siblings are frugal and rarely spend money. This means that either my parents strictly forbid spending money, or I have no money at all and it all comes from my parents.
Chen Xiangbei has been close to the matchmaker recently, so even if he doesn't know who the matchmaker is, he can still guess a few of the tricks.
Both Qiao's father and mother's faces turned green. "This...isn't it?"
Chen Xiangbei: "Why don't you go and see it for yourself first? I'll also ask around for you."
Seeing Chen Xiangbei's proficiency, Old Lady Yin also became interested. "What if a woman who is frugal and efficient at housework is considered thin?"
Chen Xiangbei: "That means she's not favored at home. She doesn't like to spend money and only works. All the money she earns goes to her parents. Not only will they not help her when she gets married, they might even come to ask for money from her frequently. And you have to pay attention to her thinness. Many families don't have fat daughters these days. The matchmaker specifically mentioned thinness, so it's worth paying attention. Maybe her health is not in good shape because of the wear and tear."
Tang Jiao also joined in the fun: "What if a gay man is called skinny?"
Chen Xiangbei: "Either they are born with deficiencies that cannot be made up for, or they are being treated like workhorses at home and their bodies can no longer handle it, so they cannot get married."
Chen Mei opened her eyes wide and said regretfully, "Xiangbei, why didn't you realize earlier that you had this ability?"
Before the others could react, Chen Xiangnan felt something was wrong, "Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
Although it was a question, it made people feel that he was very confident.
Song Xinhe left after Chen Xianghong was taken away. After she got married, she had a lot of things to do at her husband's house, and it was impossible for her to stay here until the evening. Her parents-in-law were not happy when she left early yesterday afternoon.
But Chen Mei didn't want to tell her daughter's little story in front of so many people, so she just said, "I'll tell you in private later."
Old Mrs. Xia saw that there was heartache and anger in her eyes, but she pretended to be fine. It seemed that this was a serious matter. Song Xinhe didn't know what had happened.
The atmosphere at the table gradually became heated, and everyone wanted to ask a few questions. At first, they were asking others, but in the end, everyone was asking about themselves and their children.
Qiao's mother: "Xiangbei, what do you think the matchmaker will say about Qiao Shan?"
Chen Xiangbei: "Aunt, you've heard it all, right? It's nothing more than being a carpenter to make money, being hardworking and healthy, and having good parents as an only child. He's just a little introverted, but it's good for gay men to be introverted. Being flashy and flashy makes people feel uneasy."
Qiao's mother looked at Qiao Shan's flushed face and said with a smile, "That's amazing. You didn't miss a single word."
Zheng Qianlan was also very anxious about her daughter Yu Yan's marriage. She asked second, "Xiangbei, why don't you help my Yu Yan make up a few words? She's not bad, right? My Yu Yan was harmed by her father."
Chen Xiangbei: "Comrade Zheng, do you know what kind of man Sister Yu Yan needs to treat her well? You always feel that your family is not good enough and you are afraid that the man will dislike you. You even look down on yourself. How can you find a good family? Why don't you hope for the best for Sister Yu Yan?"
Zheng Qianlan: "Why wouldn't I hope for her well-being? I hope for her well-being the most. If she were more virtuous, I wouldn't be so worried. I hope her temper will be better when she moves in with her husband."
Xia Laoxing coughed and said, "Comrade Zheng, I don't agree with what you said. I think Xiaoyu has a good personality. She's not too soft to be bullied, but she's not too aggressive to be unreasonable. You always use the standard of virtue to label her, and you hope that her in-laws will temper her temper. Have you ever thought about how much she will suffer if her original personality is tempered away?"
Zheng Qianlan was stunned for a moment. "But if we don't temper her, who can tolerate her like this?"
Old Lady Xia: "The other person must be a very outstanding person, to make Xiao Yu suffer so much just to get close to him."
Zheng Qianlan: "That's not what I meant. It's my daughter Yu Yan's bad temper. It has nothing to do with the man."
Xu Meiyu was about to laugh again. "Your daughter's boyfriend isn't even in sight, and you're already belittling her? How much of a failure is your Yu Yan as a person? What a bad temper she has! Is she the type to be thrown into jail?"
Zheng Qianlan: "Of course not, but...she fought with her father and her grandmother. People would think she was unfilial when they heard it."
Old Lady Xia: "Her father and grandmother deserved to be beaten. If our Xiao Yu didn't take action, she would have been forced to marry someone else and become their cash cow. This is the way it should be."
Chen Xiangbei rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of an idea that was not a bad idea. "Brother Qiao Shan is not good at speaking and has a soft temper, but he is hardworking and treats people sincerely. Sister Yu Yan has a strong personality and dares to love and hate. Although she has a bad temper, she is reasonable and has a job..."
Needless to say, everyone present understood what he meant, especially Zheng Qianlan and Qiao's parents, who looked at the two children back and forth.
The faces of the two parties involved were redder than monkeys' butts.
There's hope!
