Chapter 462: Meeting on a Narrow Road 2

"Ah!" Xi Bao pointed at the bicycle while holding the golden fruit stick, his eyes full of curiosity.

Lu Tianjun knew what he was thinking at a glance and said with a smile: "This is not our bicycle. Our bicycle is in the house. It is very new. Brother will take you home to ride the bicycle, okay?"

There was a wooden seat tied to the back of the bicycle, which was made by someone else and padded with cotton. Xibao loved it.

After hearing this, Xibao took back the golden fruit stick and continued to grind his teeth with it in his mouth, but he showed no intention of getting up and going home.

Deputy Mayor Zhu laughed out loud, "This child is so cute, and his reaction is so funny. Such a clever child is rare, and he will definitely be a clever ghost when he grows up. Uncle Cheng, if you ask me, your rescue was not in vain. The other person saved your lives and gave you a little great-grandson as a gift!"

"Not everyone is so lucky." Father Cheng said with a smile, "Why do you get off work so early today?"

Wang Cuilan returned just as Deputy Mayor Zhu arrived, but there was no sign of Cheng Baoguo.

"It's Saturday, isn't that what we do in the afternoon? There's nothing to do at work, except drinking tea, chatting and reading newspapers. It's better to come back." After Deputy Mayor Zhu finished speaking, he saw Wang Cuilan and suddenly remembered something, "Comrade Cuilan, can I trouble you with something?"

Wang Cuilan stood up and asked what was going on.

I will not refuse what I can agree to, and I will never agree to what I cannot do.

Deputy Mayor Zhu said, "See if there are any suitable girls in the Mining Bureau and introduce them to my bad boy."

Wang Cuilan heard this and said, "Oh, I've never been a matchmaker, so I don't dare to agree to it casually. There are no good candidates at the moment! You know the current situation. There are more men than women. Which female comrade who is a formal employee in any unit is not popular?"

No matter what the world is like, most people pay attention to marrying someone of equal social status.

City people don't want to marry country people because they are afraid that the work and food supply cannot support the family.

Unemployed urban girls are slightly better off because they have food rations. If they have a certain degree, it will be even better. They may be able to apply for a job when they encounter a job opening, but they are far inferior to urban girls who have formal jobs now. Who doesn't want to marry a girl with a job and urban hukou? Double salary, double food rations, is much better than supporting a family alone.

So, every town girl with a job is in demand.

Wang Cuilan was not willing to act as a matchmaker, as she was worried that the couple would blame her if they couldn't live together after marriage.

Seeing Deputy Mayor Zhu's expression, Father Cheng hurriedly asked, "The person that Secretary Huang introduced the other day didn't work out? I remember Secretary Niu's wife also introduced two people to him, right?"

"My head hurts just thinking about it!" Deputy Mayor Zhu said helplessly, "The brat has not made any achievements at work, but his standards are very high. He wants to find a pretty girl, a well-educated girl, a girl from the city with a job, and a girl with outstanding temperament and conversation skills... He makes me and his mother very angry! I like the two girls introduced by Secretary Niu very much, but he dislikes this one's dark skin and that one's short stature. He said that he has nothing in common with the girls introduced by Secretary Huang!"

At this point, Deputy Mayor Zhu made a snort, "His mother and I don't have a common language. I talk about work, and his mother talks about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. Hasn't she lived half her life? Isn't life just about eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping? It's not his turn now."
