Upon hearing this, Song's mother hurriedly ate the rice in the bowl, then took Aunt Hai to the room.
At the dinner table, Wang Jianguo, Wang Jianjun and Zhang Xiuzhen all focused their eyes on Wang Shuning's face.
Wang Shuning held the bowl with a nonchalant look on his face. The stir-fried pig intestines were really delicious, and the smell was not strong at all.
Zhang Xiuzhen reminded her, "Little sister, Aunt Hai must be here for your wedding, why don't you go over and take a look?"
Wang Shuning: "I have made the conditions clear, and I just need my mother to check it."
Anyway, I have to nod my head in the end, and I have to give face to Song's mother when there are outsiders around.
Aunt Hai sat on a stool and told Song's mother about the two people's situation.
"Your Xiao Ning has high standards. I have been busy with this matter for the past two days. I have searched all over Beijing for unmarried young men and finally found these two people. They are a perfect match for your Xiao Ning's requirements."
Song Guiying greeted him again and again, "Your Aunt Hai is the most capable in the entire South City compound. If my Xiao Ning can find a good home, I promise to give her a generous gift as a thank-you gift. Did you see that new bicycle outside? It was bought for me by my youngest daughter yesterday. There are not many daughters as filial and considerate as you in the whole city of Beijing."
Aunt Hai was beaming with joy. She had put in so much effort just to thank the matchmaker for the gift. Serving this one family was equivalent to serving ten families.
"The first one is Gu Ranlong, 24 years old. He joined the steel mill right after graduating from high school. He is now the workshop director. He is 1.78 meters tall. Both his parents graduated from elementary school. His father also works in the steel mill as a second-level technician, and his mother works in a wood factory. Their family has a three-room yard next to the steel mill. They used to live near the food factory. The old house had two rooms and is now rented out. Gu Ranlong is honest and has a promising future."
Song Guiying's eyes sparkled with satisfaction. "Do you have any photos?"
Aunt Hai shook her head, "She is thin-skinned. She has never taken any photos except family photos since she was a child. She doesn't think much about flowers."
Song Guiying groaned, "That's fine, we have to meet anyway. Have you told his family about my Xiaoning's situation?"
Aunt Hai answered affirmatively: "I have said that when Gu Ranlong's father heard that your Xiao Ning had made contributions to the army, he must have been very pleased. Their family is not short of money, so it doesn't matter if Xiao Ning gets a lower salary after returning to the city."
Song Guiying took a deep breath, feeling excited. This was much better than the previous conditions. "What about the other one?"
Aunt Hai's expression slightly softened. "The second one is Ji Shaoguo, 27 years old. He used to be a soldier in the army. He was injured in the knee three years ago and retired. Now he is a leader in the police station. He is 1.82 meters tall. His father was also a soldier, but he has retired now. His mother used to be an accountant in the coal yard, but she is also retired now. Both old people have pensions and two houses, one is allocated by the army, and the other is allocated by the coal yard. But they are not close to each other. It takes an hour to ride a bicycle."
Song's mother was confused, "Twenty-seven years old and still not married?"
Aunt Hai: "I was delayed in the army a few years ago, and then I retired and returned to Beijing to recuperate. I didn't have time to take care of it. Now I can walk and run normally, but I can't do too strenuous exercise on my knees."
Song's mother was a little worried: "Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your legs?"
Aunt Hai assured her, "If he was disabled, how could he be assigned to work at the police station? The intensity of military training is too high. Ji Shaoguo is doing a semi-civilian job at the police station. His parents are both retired and have pensions to receive, so he has no burden at all."
Song's mother: "His parents had the child quite late. They retired when the child was 27 years old?"
Aunt Hai explained: "His father was a soldier. It was a chaotic time and he was delayed."
Song's mother nodded in understanding. Having two retired soldiers in the family was a good family background. At least other people would look up to them when they heard about it.
Although I don’t have to work after retirement, I can still get money, which is better than working.
"Ji Shaoguo is already 27 years old this year, aren't you in a hurry to have a child?" They only spend three months together a year, so the probability of pregnancy is greatly reduced.
Aunt Hai shook her head. "His mother was 28 when she gave birth to Ji Shaoguo. Your Xiaoning is only 20 this year. There is no rush for his family."
After thinking for a while, Song's mother said, "Let's go to Gu Ranlong first. If that doesn't work, then let's go to Ji Shaoguo."
After all, twenty-seven years old is a bit too big an age difference from my younger daughter.
Aunt Hai: "I thought so too. The day after tomorrow at noon, the lotus flowers in the Grand View Garden will be in full bloom. It's perfect for our first meeting. We can walk around the garden and chat. If we get hungry, we can go to the restaurant next door for dinner."
After agreeing, Song's mother happily sent the people away. She saw that her little daughter had not finished eating yet and the plate of pig intestines was almost empty.
This thing tastes good, but it's hard to wash. I waste so much flour and water just to rub it clean, and it's gone in one meal.
Seeing that her mother-in-law couldn't hide the smile on her face, Zhang Xiuzhen guessed in her heart that she must be particularly satisfied with the person Aunt Hai introduced to her younger sister.
Wang Jianguo asked: "How is it?"
Song Guiying nodded vigorously, "It's much better than the previous ones, and it especially meets Xiaoning's requirements."
She sat down and said to her little daughter, "We have an appointment to meet at the Grand View Garden the day after tomorrow. You can ride your new bicycle over there then."
Then she told Wang Shuning about the two people's situation again, "That Ji Shaoguo is not bad, but he is seven years younger than you."
Zhang Xiuzhen whispered, "I think Ji Shao is better off. His mother is retired and can take care of the child. His father is a soldier, and his retirement benefits are much better than those of workers. If he doesn't want the mother and child to be separated, his mother can even go to Jinshan Island to take care of the child after it is born."
Ever since she became pregnant, Zhang Xiuzhen has been worried about who will take care of the child after it is born. Everyone in the family has to go to work, and Song's mother is still four years away from retirement. Her mother-in-law wants to give the child to her eldest aunt to take care of together. Her grandson is only two years old. She will send the child to her before going to work every day and bring the child back after get off work. She will give him some money and gifts every month.
But Zhang Xiuzhen was always worried, yet she couldn't bear to sell her job. It was easy to sell it, but it would be difficult to find another job when her child grew up.
Wang Shuning bit his lower lip and rubbed it. Aunt Hai was really capable. She found such a person. "It's hard to make a decision too early. After all, I haven't seen him in person. Let's meet him first."
The matchmaker will definitely exaggerate and try to turn any shortcomings into advantages.
Mother Song is so satisfied that it would be difficult to fool her if I didn't point out her shortcomings.
Song's mother was in a good mood, and even her lips were curled up when she was washing dishes.
Wang Shuning locked the door and came to the space. The ginseng seeds he planted had not sprouted yet, and the Ganoderma lucidum had no movement. Could it be that if the plants were not originally from the space, it would not work?
Or have the seeds been around too long and are no longer useful?
