Chapter 176 Matchmaking 3
"Oh, auntie, this is a little gift from Xiaoyan. He has separated from his family and lives alone. He is smart and has earned some money. If things go well, he will ask me to help make two new sets of clothes."
Zhang Jing said with a smile.
"But this guy doesn't have a very good reputation in the village. Because he's smart, he often goes into the mountains to get some things to sell in the district. He's considered a lazy guy in the village, but he can still earn ten yuan by running to the district five days a month."
Seeing that Zhao Laoshi's family was somewhat interested and Zhao Yan also fell in love with Chen Yan, Zhang Jing told all these things.
Zhao Laoshi's family can also understand this in this way. This kid only works 25 days a month and can earn an extra ten yuan. If you become relatives, he might take you with him when something good happens.
If you have one person following him, maybe you can earn an extra ten dollars a month.
"Then let's ask both parents to meet and settle the matter. My niece-in-law, you have to work in the city so you don't have to travel back and forth."
Zhao Laoshi nodded and said.
Zhang Jing's words were clear enough.
If this kid doesn't do his full work in the village, he will definitely be gossiped about, just like Zhao Laowu and Liu Qi, but their lives are getting better and better. If it weren't for these two role models, Zhao Laoshi would definitely not agree to this.
Think that's what lazy people are.
But Liu Qi and Zhao Laowu were just lazy guys in the past, and now they even refuse to work with their wives, and they don't want any dividends from the village, but their family lives much better than most people.
The children in the family all have new clothes and rubber-soled shoes.
"Okay, then we have to let this guy go to the district office to inform us on that day so that we can come over for the wedding."
Zhang Jing said with a smile.
"My niece's wife will eat at home at noon."
Zhao Yan's mother pulled Zhang Jing and said.
"I promised Director Wu that I'll go to their place for dinner today. I have to go back to Zhangjia Village later. I'll have a chance another day."
Zhang Jing said with a smile.
Knowing that Zhao Yi, Zhang Jing and Li Dequan's son and daughter all worked in the area and that the two families had frequent interactions, Zhao Laoshi's family made no further attempts to keep him.
Naturally, Chen Yan couldn't stay alone, at least not today.
After today, Chen Yan can buy some small gifts and take himself to visit his father-in-law's house.
The two little guys were running around in the village happily, leading Li Dequan's family's big yellow dog. They let the dog go when they saw Zhang Jing.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go back first."
Chen Yan looked at Zhang Jing and said with gratitude.
"Go ahead. Don't come empty-handed next time. No matter what you bring, it's a token of your thoughtfulness."
Zhang Jing gave Chen Yan some instructions and stopped caring about him.
Chen Yan still had to go back and discuss with his parents when to come to Chenjia Village to finalize the marriage.
"You two bastards, the dog is so old, yet you still keep running while leading it. If the dog is tired to death, I will leave you two here to help Grandpa Li look after the house."
Zhang Jing poked both of them on the forehead and said.
"They didn't take it seriously, but they didn't dare to talk back to Zhang Jing."
He turned his head to look at his friends who were getting ready to go into the mountains.
"Go if you want to. I'll come back to pick you up in the afternoon. If I don't see you when I come over in the afternoon, I'll go home and leave you here."
Zhang Jing saw that the two little guys really wanted to follow their friends into the mountains to dig out bird nests, roast potatoes, and shoot birds, so she did not stop them from going with them.
The children in the village don’t have many entertainment options, so these are their best entertainment options.
Zhao Peng ran back to his grandmother's house and asked his grandmother to make him half a bowl of chili noodles.
I took the chili noodles and set off with my friends.
None of the chili noodles in the village taste as good as Zhao Peng’s, and his family can’t afford to buy MSG.
So every time Zhao Peng returned to the village, he didn’t have to worry about anything else and just had to prepare the chili powder.
When a group of little guys go into the mountains, all the small animals within sight will suffer, no matter whether they are flying in the sky, crawling on the ground, or swimming in the water, as long as they are seen, they will be killed and put into the fire.
Li Daju would not care about such things. Zhao Yi and his friends had come here before. At this age when adults hate dogs, after cutting grass for pigs, they would go into the mountains in groups of three or five to find food.
Zhang Jing had lunch at Li Dequan's house and then rushed to Zhangjia Village.
Zhangjia Village has changed a lot now. Almost every household lives in a red brick and tile house, and the chicken farm is much larger than before.
After chatting with her parents for a while, Zhang Jing hurried back to Wangou Village.
When Zhang Jing came back from Zhangjia Village in the afternoon.
The two little guys looked like coal miners, standing in front of Zhang Jing with dusty faces, making Zhang Jing laugh so hard that she covered her mouth with her hands.
Zhang Jing was not surprised either, because every time Zhao Yi brought them back to the village, they would come home with this look.
They all made this by making a fire in the mountains and roasting potatoes.
"Xiao Jing, take these back. I can't finish them at home."
Li Daju took some cakes she made by mixing yam powder and flour and said.
"Got it?"
Zhang Jing felt relieved when she saw that it was not an egg.
What I fear most is eggs, a gift from the elderly.
Li Daju also wanted to send eggs to Zhang Jing, but the eggs for the next two months had to be sent to the second child’s home because she had just finished her confinement and was lacking in nutrition.
Otherwise, usually each family gets half of the gift.
"Don't hug me, you're all covered in dust, and I'm too lazy to do the laundry."
The two little guys wanted to hug Zhang Jing's thighs, and Zhang Jing said with a look of disgust.
The two men looked down at the clothes they were wearing and had to keep their distance from Zhang Jing.
As soon as she returned home in the evening, Zhang Jing hurriedly boiled hot water for the two of them to take a bath.
After changing the two into clean clothes and letting them wash their own clothes at home, Zhang Jing finally had time to come to the restaurant to help.
"What?"
Zhao Yi asked immediately when he saw Zhang Jing coming over.
"I agree."
Zhang Jing naturally knew what her boss was asking about.
"Then we'll have to have a wedding banquet soon."
Zhao Yi smiled.
"Where's Dabao Xuanxuan?"
Zhao Yi asked without seeing the two little guys.
"I was washing clothes at home. I played in the mountains for most of the day and made myself feel like a coal miner."
Zhang Jing said with some amusement.
Zhang Jing has let the little ones wash their own things since they were young. If they can't wash them clean, Zhang Jing will wait until they fall asleep to help them wash them. This is to cultivate their hands-on ability.
What if he gets admitted to university and goes to another city to study and doesn't know how to do anything? Do I have to go with him and help them wash clothes?
"These two brats, even if I prepare food for them at home, they won't be as delicious as the half-cooked ones they eat in the mountains with their friends."
Zhao Yi smiled.
When the potatoes are half-cooked in the mountains, some friends can’t wait to eat them. Once one of them starts eating, the others will rush to join in for fear of missing out.
Zhang Jing smiled and nodded. The two little ones at home didn’t know how to roast potatoes.
"Food tastes better when there are more people around. Who would fight with them for food at home?"
