Chapter 296 The Fate of the Second Nephew
It was night.
Naye Village.
Deng Changyuan and Ou Guohua are playing the human pyramid game.
More than ten minutes later, the game was over. Ou Guohua thought about it for a while and said, "Yuan, I want to discuss something with you."
Deng Changyuan lay on the bed with a satisfied look on his face. It turned out that making a big vat was not as fun as stacking monks. "What's the matter? Tell me!"
Ou Guohua said: "I want to go to the county town to do business."
Deng Changyuan's expression froze when he heard this. He turned to look at his wife and asked, "You're going to the county town, what should I do? How can I sleep without you at night?"
Ou Guohua smiled and said, "What are you thinking about? Are you planning to let me go to the county town alone?"
Deng Changyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You scared me. I thought you were going to leave me and the child behind and run to the county town alone!"
Ou Guohua reached out and touched his chest, chuckling, "How is that possible? You can't sleep without me at night, and I can't sleep without you at night either."
Deng Changyuan smiled with satisfaction and said, "Wife, I can earn a stable income of more than 200 yuan a month from selling large vats. We don't have the conditions of A Tai. If we don't make as much money from selling large vats as we do from selling large vats in the county, we will be laughed at."
Ou Guohua said: "Sister Fang and I have been communicating with Sister Ping. Sister Ping also suggested that we go to the county town to develop. She had this idea a long time ago, but the conditions were not mature at that time, and there was no business suitable for us to do, so it was delayed until now.
As for your income at the tile factory, we haven't separated yet. Most of the money you earn from working so hard to make big tiles has to be handed over to my parents, and you can only take a small portion. You work so hard every day, and I do, even if others don't feel sorry for you.
So, don’t worry about the income from the tile factory. No matter how much or how little you earn in the county town, you definitely won’t have to work as hard as you do now.”
Deng Changyuan was deeply moved when he heard this. In terms of care, his wife is the one who cares the most. Even his parents can't compare to her. He thought about it and said, "I'm afraid my parents won't agree to this."
Ou Guohua was also mentally prepared for this and continued, "A Yuan, you are now the father of two children. You can't just listen to your parents. As the old saying goes, a big tree will have branches and branches, and sooner or later you will have to separate."
If it was before, Deng Changyuan probably wouldn't have been able to bring up the idea of dividing the family, because he was the breadwinner of the family, and the money earned by everyone else combined was less than half of what he earned. If he had mentioned dividing the family at that time, it would have seemed a bit embarrassing.
However, things are different now. His family owns shares in the passenger transport company, and he has earned several thousand yuan from growing watermelons for two consecutive years. This is more profitable than making large vats at the vat factory. In fact, it is a very appropriate time to propose a separation.
"Then I will find time to talk to my parents about this issue tomorrow. If they don't agree with us going to the county town to develop, then I will propose a separation."
"You said it yourself, don't be silent when your parents object."
"Don't worry, I know what to do. It's getting late, go to bed!"
"Well, sleep!"
…
After returning from Dongu Township, Liang Yunfei and his wife really took their daughter's marriage as their top priority.
After all, his father had said time and again that his time was up and he would not survive this year. If this was true, then they really had to hurry and marry their daughter off. Otherwise, if they delayed it for another two or three years, she would really become an old maid.
Therefore, after returning, Yuqing's mother said directly: "We really need to take what Dad said seriously. I will ask a matchmaker tomorrow to arrange Xiaoqing's marriage as soon as possible."
Liang Yunfei shook his head and said, "It's a bit hard to trust matchmakers. They always say nice things about the other party and even help them hide some unbearable shortcomings. I think it's more reliable to ask acquaintances for introductions."
Yuqing's mother thought about it and nodded, "Alright, then let's find someone we know to introduce us to someone. It would be best if we can find the right person."
Liang Yunfei said: "When looking for acquaintances, you should look for those who are well-connected or have status. Such people have better vision, and the people they introduce are relatively more reliable."
Yuqing's mother said thoughtfully: "That makes sense. Then I'll think about who should I ask for an introduction."
Liang Yunfei was also thinking hard, and suddenly he thought of someone. His eyes lit up and he said, "I thought of someone. If the other person has brothers and is not married yet, then this marriage is worth matchmaking."
Yuqing's mother quickly asked, "Lao Liang, who are you talking about?"
Liang Yunfei said: "As for the boss of Suifeng Hotel, you know I've eaten there a few times. I've had a very good impression of him. He's steady, confident, and very good at entertaining people. He's a rare talent.
It’s a pity that he is already married and his wife is beautiful and capable.
In the previous few contacts, I didn't ask him if he had other brothers. I will take some time tomorrow to find out if he has other brothers of the right age."
Yuqing's mother was also somewhat excited when she heard this. As the largest and most high-end hotel in the county, Suifeng Hotel was naturally well-known to her. If she could become a relative of such a big boss, it would indeed be a happy thing.
"Well, go to Suifeng Hotel tomorrow and ask around. Even if they don't have a brother of the right age, you can ask them to introduce one."
"That's settled then. Don't rush looking for someone else. Let me find out everything tomorrow."
"Um!"
…
The next day.
Because he was anxious, Liang Yunfei rode his bicycle to Suifeng Hotel after breakfast.
At this time, the Suifeng Hotel has also opened. Although the hotel does not serve breakfast, but only lunch and dinner, the hotel still has to open early to make various preparations.
Liang Yunfei pretended to pass by and saw Deng Yuntai standing at the door, so he greeted him, "Morning, Boss Deng!"
Deng Yuntai looked in the direction of the voice and recognized the other person immediately. He also smiled and greeted him, "Good morning, Director Liang. Have you had breakfast?"
"I have eaten. Have you eaten yet?"
“I’ve eaten it too!”
Liang Yunfei parked his bike and walked over to say, "Boss Deng, I've been here a few times and I've only seen you managing the restaurant. Where are your other brothers?"
Deng Yuntai smiled and said, "My brothers are all studying!"
Liang Yunfei was both happy and worried when he heard this. He was happy because he had found out that the other party really had a brother, but he was worried because the other party's brother seemed to be a little young and was still studying! However, in this era, many children in the countryside started studying late, and it was normal to start studying in their teens. There were also many high school students who failed to get into college and repeated their studies year after year, and it was not uncommon for them to repeat their studies for several years in a row.
Therefore, even if the other person is a student, you cannot arbitrarily determine his or her age. You still have to ask clearly.
"Boss Deng, how many brothers do you have? Where is your oldest brother studying?"
"I have four younger brothers. The oldest one is studying at a university in Beijing."
Liang Yunfei's eyes lit up again, and he asked, "Which university in Beijing?"
Although Deng Yuntai didn't want to pretend, the stage had already been set up and it would be too pretentious if he didn't.
Then, he spat out two powerful words: "Peking University!"
Liang Yunfei was shocked when he heard this, and a look of shock instantly appeared on his face.
He really never expected that the other party's younger brother was actually a Peking University student. Even though Liang Yunfei felt that his daughter was good enough, he, as a father, couldn't help feeling inferior in front of such a true pride of Peking University.
"Congratulations, Boss Deng. Your little brother really has a bright future!"
"Thank you, Director Liang!"
Liang Yunfei sighed helplessly: "I originally wanted to introduce a girl to your brother, but it seems that I have done something unnecessary!"
Deng Yuntai was moved when he heard this and said, "Director Liang, my brother is still in school and is indeed not suitable for dating. However, I have a cousin who is old enough to find a partner. If you have a suitable girl, can you help introduce her to him?"
After all, cousins are different from biological brothers. Although Liang Yunfei had given up hope, he still said with a smile: "Sure, how old is your cousin this year? What does his family do? Does he have a job?"
Deng Yuntai briefly introduced: "My eldest aunt's family is engaged in planting. Last year, they contracted more than 600 mu of mountain slopes to plant sugarcane. This year, the sugarcane harvest is very good! As for my cousin, he is 23 years old this year. He is engaged in freight and already has five large trucks. His conditions are quite good."
When you are surrounded by mountains and rivers and think there is no way out, suddenly you see a new village with willows and flowers. Liang Yunfei's mood at this moment really fits this line of poetry perfectly. He had originally given up hope, but who would have thought that Boss Deng's cousin would be so outstanding.
Not to mention that his family was engaged in contracting, the key point was that he was the same age as his daughter, but he already owned five large trucks and made the freight business flourish. Such a young man was a perfect match for his daughter! Liang Yunfei was extremely excited, but he was able to remain calm on his face and praised: "Boss Deng, your cousin is indeed very good. I wonder what he looks like? And is he a good person?"
Deng Yuntai said: "My cousin looks average, about the same as me. He was a bit naughty when he was young. As a boy, fighting is common. But he has a big advantage. He doesn't obey anyone outside, but he never gets into trouble with his parents and brothers at home.
Moreover, he listens to my dad the most. Basically, he listens to whatever my dad says.”
Liang Yunfei nodded secretly after hearing this. The Boss Deng in front of him looked quite good, with no obvious advantages or disadvantages. Since his cousin was similar to him, then his appearance was acceptable.
You can only know someone’s personality by actually getting to know them, so I won’t comment on it for now.
As the director of Bobai Forest Farm, Liang Yunfei naturally knew that freight was a very profitable business. Others could make a lot of money in a year with just one large truck, but the other party owned five large trucks at such a young age, which proved that his business acumen was really extraordinary.
In addition, the other party is a cousin of the owner of Suifeng Hotel, so this relationship also adds points.
After all, Liang Yunfei knew something about the strength of the boss of Suifeng Hotel.
In short, this young man is indeed worthy of his daughter, more than enough.
When the opportunity comes, you have to seize it. Liang Yunfei didn't care about being reserved and said directly: "Boss Deng, my daughter is the same age as your cousin and has not found a partner yet. I want you to help match them up. What do you think?"
"ah?"
Deng Yuntai didn't expect the other party to do this. He waved his hands and said, "Director Liang, I don't know anything about this. If you really want to do this, let my dad help them get together. My dad is good at this and he happens to be in the county now."
Liang Yunfei said happily: "That's great. When will your father come to the restaurant?"
"Director Liang, please sit down and have some tea. My father will be here soon."
"Okay, I'll bother you then!"
…
Twenty minutes later.
"Dad, let me introduce you. This is Director Liang from Bobai Forest Farm."
"Hello, Director Liang!"
"Hello, Boss Deng!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The two sides greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries. Liang Yunfei smiled and said, "Boss Deng, this is what happened. I heard from your eldest son (a polite name) that you have a nephew who is in the freight business and currently has no girlfriend. It just so happens that my daughter is the same age as your nephew and also has no girlfriend. Can you help to bring them together?"
When Deng Shirong heard that he was being asked to help with matchmaking, he became interested and asked with a smile, "Director Liang, can you briefly tell me about your daughter's situation?"
Liang Yunfei nodded and said, "My daughter graduated from the county normal school and is currently a public school teacher at the No. 1 Primary School in Bobai Town. She is 1.6 meters tall and has a good figure and appearance..."
Deng Shirong nodded repeatedly as Liang Yunfei introduced him. If the other party was not exaggerating the facts, then his daughter would be a very good match and a good match for his nephew.
Of course, all of this still needs to be investigated.
After Liang Yunfei finished the introduction, Deng Shirong said, "Director Liang, now that you mention it, I also think that your daughter and my nephew are indeed a good match. How about this, I will tell my nephew about this, and then arrange for them to meet this Saturday. What do you think?"
Liang Yunfei said: "Okay, then I'll trouble Boss Deng!"
Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Captain Liang, you are too polite. If they really like each other, then we will be relatives in the future!"
Liang Yunfei said happily: "I couldn't ask for more to become a relative of you, Boss Deng!"
This was not just a compliment. In Liang Yunfei's eyes, Boss Deng was truly an extraordinary figure. Not only did he own the largest and most high-end restaurant in the county, he also had a son studying at Peking University. Once he entered politics after graduation, the level he would start at would probably be the end point of his life's struggle.
Who wouldn’t want such a powerful relative?
Next, both sides drank tea and communicated with each other, hoping to increase their understanding.
After chatting for more than half an hour, Liang Yunfei left with satisfaction.
…
The Bobai Sugar Factory is not far from the Suifeng Hotel, and can be reached in about ten minutes by car. So every time Bu Zhongshi pulls sugarcane to the sugar factory, as long as the time is right, he will come to his uncle's restaurant to eat, and today at noon is no exception.
"Cousin-in-law!"
As soon as Bu Zhongshi entered the restaurant, he greeted his cousin's wife who was sitting behind the cash register.
Zhang Xiuping smiled and said, "Zhongshi, your uncle has been waiting for you for a long time. He has something very happy to tell you."
"What's the big happy event?"
"Let your uncle tell you this!"
Bu Zhongshi walked over to the table where his uncle and Grandpa Zhang sat down and asked curiously, "Uncle, I heard from my cousin's wife that you have some great news to tell me?"
Deng Shirong smiled and said, "It is indeed a great joyous event. Your destiny may be coming!"
Bu Zhongshi suddenly realized, "Uncle, have you found a suitable partner for me?"
Deng Shirong said, "I didn't find her. It just happened. You should eat first and we can talk while we eat."
Bu Zhongshi responded, then went to get a bowl of rice and started eating with the food and wine on the table.
Deng Shirong briefly explained the situation to him, and finally said: "According to the introduction of Director Liang, this girl is really good, but I still need to find someone else to help investigate this matter. If the investigation proves that this girl is really good, then you can really consider it carefully."
Bu Zhongshi swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "This condition does sound good. Uncle, you decide. I'll listen to you."
Deng Shirong said, "I have already made an agreement with Director Liang that I will arrange for you to meet his daughter this Saturday. The time has been set. As for what will happen when you meet, we will have to wait for the results of my investigation."
Bu Zhongshi nodded and said, "Okay, I understand!"
…
Over the next two days, Deng Shirong used his connections to conduct a detailed investigation into Liang Yunfei's daughter Liang Yuqing, focusing on her character and temper.
There is no need to say much about moral character. Those who understand will understand.
The reason why Deng Shirong included temper as well as the survey is because women with good tempers and women with bad tempers have a huge impact on a family.
Women with good tempers are generally more reasonable. They won’t lose their temper for no reason and are willing to discuss anything with others.
A woman with a bad temper would lose her temper at any time, like a powder keg that could explode at any time. Most of daily life would be spent listening to her roars. Deng Shirong would never believe that such a family could be happy.
Therefore, no matter what the reason is, remember to stay away from women with a bad temper. Never marry such a woman, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life.
Fortunately, Deng Shirong was satisfied with the results of the investigation. Although Liang Yuqing was the only child in the family and grew up in the love of her parents, she did not develop the temper of a "young lady". No one had ever seen her lose her temper. She was also very patient with students and was a very easy-going woman to get along with.
After the investigation was completed, Deng Shirong told his nephew the result and then reminded him: "Tomorrow is Saturday. I have an appointment with the beam yard manager to meet at 4 pm. Remember to wear nice clothes and dress yourself up to leave a good impression."
"That's just my appearance. No matter how I dress up, I won't look any better."
"Everyone has spirit and energy. If you dress yourself up to look more spirited, even if your appearance remains the same, people will still think you are a good guy."
"Okay, I'll try to look smart then."
…
Saturday afternoon.
It was still the big blue brick and tile house with a yard. The old man surnamed Liang looked at his beautifully dressed granddaughter and a happy smile appeared on his face.
He was happy because his son and daughter-in-law took his advice to heart and within two days of returning from Dongu Township, they found a very good blind date for their granddaughter.
The old man surnamed Liang said to his granddaughter with a smile: "Xiaoqing, I heard from your father that the conditions of your blind date are really good. You should not be too picky. If you feel that you are suitable, you should settle down as soon as possible. If I can see you get married before leaving, then I will really be satisfied."
Liang Yuqing felt helpless when she heard her grandfather bring up the same old thing again. She was a staunch atheist, so she naturally didn't believe her grandfather's conclusion that her end was near because of his continuous dreams. However, her parents found a blind date for her with the mentality of "it's better to believe it than not to believe it".
At her age, blind dates are actually a very normal thing, and Liang Yuqing has already prepared herself mentally.
Moreover, the blind date her father found for her sounded really good in all aspects, except that his cultural level was a little low.
However, no one is perfect. For others, being a driver is already a great honor. However, this blind date partner, who is the same age as her, already owns five large trucks. His talent for business is truly amazing.
Therefore, Liang Yuqing was not opposed to this blind date, otherwise she would not have dressed herself up carefully: "Grandpa, I am not picky. As long as I feel it is okay, then I will marry. Anyway, women will get married sooner or later."
The old man surnamed Liang nodded in satisfaction, looked at his son and daughter-in-law and said, "You parents, you should go with us later, especially Yunfei. You have been a leader in the forest farm for so many years, you should have some vision in judging people. You should take a good look at Xiaoqing later. I don't want Xiaoqing to marry someone with bad intentions because of me. I won't feel at ease when I leave if that happens."
Liang Yunfei smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, I know. I will definitely take a good look at it. Xiaoqing is my only daughter. I hope she will marry well more than anyone else."
Yuqing's mother also echoed, "Don't worry, Dad, we will definitely keep a close eye on Xiaoqing."
The old man surnamed Liang hummed, then waved his hand and said, "Then I won't say much. It's almost time now. You guys should go quickly. I'll wait for your good news."
"Okay, Dad, let's go then!"
"Grandpa, we're going over first!"
"Go ahead!"
After saying hello to her grandfather, Liang Yuqing went out with her parents. She rode a bicycle and her parents rode a bicycle, and they headed towards the Suifeng Hotel together.
Soon, the family of three rode their bicycles through Xinglong Street and came to the intersection connecting with Xicheng Road. From this angle, there were no buildings blocking their view, and the Suifeng Hotel appeared in front of them.
At this moment, Liang Yuqing, who had been quite calm, suddenly began to have a faster heartbeat.
