Chapter 8: Matchmaker Reward System, Really Good!

"Uncle Man."

In the supply and marketing cooperative, Guan Yongying greeted his uncle Guan Dewu.

Guan Dewu asked with a smile: "Yongying, that young man should be pretty good, right? Where did he invite you to dinner? What did you eat?"

Aunt Guan said, "That young man is really nice and generous. He invited us to a state-owned restaurant for dinner. We ordered three meat dishes, white-cut chicken, sweet and sour pork, and pork soup, and three vegetarian dishes. It cost us six or seven yuan in total!"

Guan Dewu was a little surprised when he heard this and said, "He invited you to a state-owned restaurant for dinner? This guy really spent a lot of money, proving that he really likes our Yongying."

Guan Yongying smiled shyly. The man on her blind date did a great job this time and gave her enough face.

Her parents told her that many girls in their village came out for blind dates, and even if the men were satisfied, they would only treat them to a meal at a noodle stall. They had never heard of any girl who had the opportunity to eat at a state-owned restaurant after a blind date.

Her blind date this time was a small precedent in their Shenshuitian Village.

"Okay, we just came to say hello to you and take our bikes back. Uncle Jiu will be sending red envelopes and gifts to our house soon, and it will be bad if we are not at home." Aunt Guan said.

Guan Dewu nodded and said, "Well, then you guys can ride your bikes back, and I can just walk back after get off work."

Nowadays, in the entire Shuangwangjing area, apart from the government-owned bicycles, there are very few private individuals who can afford a bicycle. In the entire Shenshuitian Village, only Guan Dewu, who works at the supply and marketing cooperative, bought one at the beginning of this year.

So, after saying hello, Aunt Guan rode her bicycle and hurried home with her niece.

…

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Deng Shirong came to Guan Dewei's house again with the man's red envelope and gifts.

At this time, Guan Dewei and his wife already knew about their daughter's encounter today, and they were quite satisfied with the man's performance.

The most important thing is that their daughter has agreed to have lunch with the boy, which proves that their daughter is also satisfied with the boy, so this marriage is indeed a sure thing.

Therefore, Guan Dewei and his wife were very enthusiastic about Deng Shirong, the matchmaker who came to their house again.

After the two sides greeted each other, Deng Shirong untied the cardboard box on the bicycle, took out a piece of pork belly and a bag of candy biscuits and said, "This is for grandpa and grandma."

The blind date rules of Shuangwangjingyu are that if the two are satisfied with each other when they meet, and if the girl’s grandparents are still alive, the boy has to prepare an extra gift.

Yongying's mother quickly reached out to take the pork and candy cake.

Deng Shirong took out another bag of candy biscuits from the carton, and took out two yuan from his pocket, handed it to Aunt Guan next to him and said, "Aunt Man, this is yours."

Aunt Guan took it with a smile on her face. This red envelope was considered generous. Usually, the men who went on a blind date with the girl would only get a red envelope of a few cents, and the normal amount would be one dollar. She was able to get a red envelope of two dollars, which was considered good.

After all, many people only gave the heroine red envelopes of two or three yuan.

Deng Shirong took out another five yuan from his pocket, took out the remaining piece of pork belly and a bag of candy biscuits from the carton, and said with a smile: "These are Yongying's."

Guan Yongying was embarrassed to take it, so Yongying's mother took the money and things from Deng Shirong on her behalf.

After Yongying's mother put away her things, Deng Shirong said, "Yongying's father, Yongying's mother, I'm sure you all know what happened today. My nephew fell in love with Yongying at first sight, and his mother is also very satisfied with Yongying. Now it depends on your attitude!"

Guan Dewei looked at his wife and said thoughtfully, "Uncle Jiu, your nephew is really generous. Although we haven't met him yet, we have a good impression of him. We can discuss this marriage."

This result was within Deng Shirong's expectations. He smiled and said, "Since both of you are satisfied, let's not play tricks. How much do you want for this dress? What other items do you want?"

As the topic was about wealth, Guan Yongying blushed with embarrassment and wanted to hide. However, she was very curious, so she endured the embarrassment and sat aside to listen.

As for Aunt Guan, she was just sitting there listening. It was definitely not her turn to speak about something like this.

After the acquaintance is satisfactory, the next step is to look at the house. Before looking at the house, the price of the woman and other items required must be negotiated in advance.

Because visiting the house is equivalent to engagement, the woman will definitely not agree to visit the house before the conditions are agreed upon.

Apparently, Guan Dewei and his wife had already discussed their daughter's worth a long time ago, so there was no need to hide it from the matchmaker. The couple stated their conditions one after another.

He needed 288 yuan in cash, 300 kilograms of grain, a sewing machine, and he also needed to bring Guan Yongying to make six new sets of clothes.

All this would cost about five hundred yuan. If you add in the expenses for the acquaintance and the subsequent housekeeping, as well as the thank-you gift to the matchmaker, then it would cost at least six hundred yuan to marry a wife.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This amount of money is not a small sum in this day and age, but Deng Shirong knows that it is not that the woman is asking for an exorbitant price, but that this is the current market situation for marriage.

In short, whether in this poor era or in the future when everyone has escaped poverty, getting married has never been an easy thing.

After the woman put forward all her requirements, Deng Shirong put down the pipe and said, "Okay, I'm clear about your requirements. I'll go back and talk to the man. If there's no problem, I'll come back tomorrow to talk to you about housekeeping."

Although Mr. and Mrs. Guan Dewei felt that the speed was too fast, they had no reason to object.

After finishing the business, Deng Shirong did not stay any longer and rode away on his bicycle.

After leaving Shenshuitian Village, Deng Shirong calmed down and looked at the "Matchmaker Reward System" in his mind. He saw three big unity cards lying there quietly in the system space. They were the tenfold reward he received after receiving the red envelope from the man.

Originally, he only received a three-yuan red envelope, but after taking into account the system's tenfold reward, it became thirty-three yuan. This money came too fast! Deng Shirong was very happy on the way home. After paying the contract fee for the kiln and the living expenses for his second son, he only had thirty-four yuan left.

When she came to the government house to propose marriage, she spent several cents on candies and cakes.

As a result, his wealth skyrocketed in just half a day, and he now had more than sixty-six yuan in available cash.

This "Matchmaker Reward System" is really great!
