"You broke my old arms and legs," Uncle Ge protested loudly.
"Something's wrong. Hurry up and get some blood. Uncle Ge, your legs and feet are really weak. You still want to find a partner when you're like this?"
Uncle Ge didn't like what he heard. "I'm in good shape. Why don't we run a marathon and see whose legs are weaker? You attacked me suddenly and I didn't react."
"Uncle, please don't be so joking. There is an old lady in her teens at Fenglan's workplace. Let me tell you the conditions. Do you want to meet her?" The loud speaker briefly introduced Aunt Yuan's situation.
"Uncle Ge, do you mind?"
"I'm already buried in the dirt up to my neck, why should I mind? She's tough, and I'm even tougher, which is why I've been single for seventy years!" Uncle Ge really doesn't mind. He's a bachelor, so what's there to be afraid of?
Loud speaker... Which man doesn't stay single for more than 20 years before finding a wife?
"Then if you don't mind, you can come and see me now to see if you two are compatible."
Uncle Ge stretched his clothes and said, "Are you going now? Then I'll change my clothes." The old man looked at him with disdain.
Da La Ba went out to wait, Zeng Yuhua rolled her eyes and asked, "What do you want to see Uncle Ge about?"
"It's nothing. Let's build a stove in the backyard of the shop and ask Uncle Ge for help." It was a vague matter and Da Loudspeaker didn't say anything. If nothing happened by then, it would be enough for these old ladies to gossip about.
"Why do the men of Li Jiatu need to come out to look for someone?" Zeng Yuhua didn't believe what the loudspeaker said. Why were they building a stove in the middle of the day? Aren't they here to introduce a companion to this old man?
"You are the daughter of the sea, how can you be so nosy? Even if someone asks you to build a stove, they have to report to you." Da Laba didn't like listening to Zeng Yuhua. What's the relationship? She had to report everything to you.
Zeng Yuhua hit a snag and was a little embarrassed. "We are all neighbors, I was just asking casually."
"I just said it casually. You didn't know that because you came late. I just say whatever I want to say." That meant that they were not in a relationship where they could ask each other about anything.
Uncle Ge also came out at this time, wearing a black cadre uniform, a pair of new cloth shoes, and a shaved beard. He looked a lot more energetic.
Da Laba stopped arguing with Zeng Yuhua and took Uncle Ge back to the matchmaking agency.
Zeng Yuhua let out a "Pah" sound from behind. Anyone with enough time could tell from Old Man Ge's demeanor what he had done outside. He even hid it from her, as if he thought she wanted to know. What a frivolous old man. He was so old, and yet he was still thinking about that kind of thing.
Da Laba brought Uncle Ge back in a hurry. Uncle Ge smoothed his hair, brushed off the dust on his body, and his old face was a little hot.
The old lady quickly introduced the two parties. Aunt Yuan was only 18 years old today, and looked old, but the two of them standing together did not feel out of place.
Both parties looked at each other. The first impression was neither good nor bad. At this age, they didn't look so good as young people. As long as there were no major flaws, all old faces looked the same.
Uncle Ge has never suffered the hardships of marriage in his life, and he seems to be less troubled.
