He's mother, who was almost mad with anger, was frightened by Jia the matchmaker's momentum and softened her tone.
"The girl from our family ran away with her household registration card and went to register with that Liu guy."
"Just register. It's fine as long as the betrothal gift is enough. Why are you crying?" Matchmaker Jia knew that something went wrong, but she couldn't let the responsibility fall on herself.
"Aren't you clear about whether you have given the betrothal gift or not? Didn't you say this morning that you would give the betrothal gift the day after tomorrow? Today, that girl ran away without registering her household registration. You definitely don't want to give the betrothal gift." He's mother excitedly pulled the matchmaker, as if the matchmaker had kidnapped her daughter.
Matchmaker Jia shook off He's mother's hand and asked, "Did you see your daughter running away with Xiao Liu?"
He's mother shook her head. She ran out without seeing the girl.
Matchmaker Jia sneered, "Your girl has never been content since she was born. Maybe she didn't like Xiao Liu, so she ran off with some wild man."
"Impossible," He's mother said unsteadily.
"Mr. He, I'm taking you to find Xiao Liu now. If your daughter runs away there, you have to find a way to bring her back. I don't care about your family's affairs. If your daughter is not there, you have to compensate me for the matchmaking money. I'm not a joke to your family." Matchmaker Jia pinched her waist, looking ferocious. She didn't care about anything else. She couldn't lose a penny of the money she earned.
He's mother swallowed her saliva and said, "She must have gone to Liu's house. She has nowhere to go."
The matchmaker locked the door and took He's mother to the Liu family. The blind old lady and two children of the He family were collecting firewood in the yard.
"Auntie, where is your Xiao Liu?" Matchmaker Jia pulled He's mother and asked in a friendly manner. No matter what, it didn't matter who was old or young.
"Who is it?" The old lady couldn't see, so she asked towards the door.
"Auntie, I am Jia the Matchmaker"
"Oh, it's Xiao Jia. My son has gone to work. Their company has a cafeteria for lunch. If he doesn't come back for lunch, come in and sit down."
He's mother couldn't bear it any longer, so she rushed into the yard and searched the three houses inside and out. Matchmaker Jia didn't stop her, as it was clear at first glance that the item was not in the house.
"What are you doing? Why are you rummaging through my things?" the older child spoke up.
"What's going on with Matchmaker Jia?" The old lady also became nervous.
"Auntie, it's okay. The girl your son had a blind date with ran away from home. Her mother suspected that she ran to your house and came to check on her. It's okay, I'm watching her and I can't let her take anything away." Matchmaker Jia was afraid of scaring the old and the young, so she quickly explained.
"No, no outsiders came to our house today," the old lady said quickly, feeling relieved in her heart. Their house was a den of wolves, and no one who came would be in trouble. It was better if they ran away, it was better if they ran away.
"It's okay, Auntie, let her see, I'll give up without her, I'm watching her."
The old lady was still nervous, and was at a loss as to what to do as she held the two children.
In such a small place, He's mother looked everywhere where people could hide, but there was no trace of He Meina at all.
"Your daughter must have run away with someone else. You can think of something else, so what's the point of her running here? She was waiting for you to find her. Who is so stupid?" Matchmaker Jia figured it out along the way. It must be that He Meina didn't like Xiao Liu, and her thin arms could not beat the thick thighs, so she ran away.
"Impossible. She said at noon that she and Xiao Liu were going to get the marriage certificate and household registration. How could she not be here?" He's mother could not accept that the girl was out of her control.
"You can say whatever you want. I even said your daughter ran away with the betrothal money," said Matchmaker Jia disdainfully.
"She has nowhere to go. She's not here. She must be hiding at Xiao Liu's place." He's mother took the matchmaker away. They must be at the slaughterhouse.
