Yun Qiao said, "Don't bother with that. Just buy a pack of Ludilong cigarettes."
"Hey, I'm listening to you."
He Tingjun stuffed the gifts back into his backpack, planning to go to the customer's house and deliver them after buying cigarettes.
After all, among the family, no gift would be worth seeing if anyone is missing.
As for the matchmaker, He Tingjun thought about it for a long time and finally did not look for Mrs. Cui Jing, the wife of Commander Liang, but chose the one who was closer to him, Sister-in-law Zeng Qi.
Although Cui Jing is the wife of Commander Liang and a wife of a high status in the military family compound, it is certainly an honor to ask her to be a matchmaker. However, considering that Cui Jing once tried to match him and Cui Xuezhi, He Tingjun felt that he had to avoid suspicion.
That evening, He Tingjun took a piece of meat and knocked on Yang Yuanfan's door.
Yang Yuanfan opened the door and was surprised to see He Tingjun: "I asked you to come home for dinner this afternoon, but you didn't come. Why are you here again now?"
After he finished speaking, Yang Yuanfan noticed that He Tingjun was still holding a piece of meat. He raised his eyebrows and showed a mischievous expression on his face: "Oh? You brought a piece of meat? What's the matter? Do you need a favor from me?"
He Tingjun said, "I have something to ask of you, not you."
"If you're not asking me, then who should I ask?"
"Please sister-in-law."
He Tingjun carried the meat into Yang Yuanfan's yard. The light was on in the kitchen, and Zeng Qi was standing in front of the stove, wearing an apron and cooking.
Seeing He Tingjun, Zeng Qi smiled: "Tingjun is here. You came just like that, why did you bring anything with you? You're too polite."
He Tingjun placed the meat on the kitchen chopping board and said with a smile, "If I need your help with something, I wouldn't come empty-handed."
"What's going on?"
"I'd like you to be my matchmaker."
"Oh, this is a big deal!" Zeng Qi became serious, untied her apron, and threw it to Yang Yuanfan: "Old Yang, you watch the pot while I talk to Tingjun."
Yang Yuanfan took the apron and said, "But I don't eat what I cook. How about letting me chat with Tingjun?"
"Tingjun asked me to be a matchmaker, not you. What are you talking about with him?" Zeng Qi couldn't help but say, holding his shoulders and pushing him to the stove. "The dishes are all in the pot, just stew them until they're done. You light the fire and taste them when they come out of the pot. If they're not salty enough, add some salt."
After explaining Yang Yuanfan, Zeng Qi turned to He Tingjun and said, "He, Tingjun, let's go to the main hall and talk."
He Tingjun nodded and followed Zeng Qi into the main room.
Zeng Qi brought a small stool to He Tingjun: "Sit down."
"Tuo."
Zeng Qi got straight to the point: "Are you planning to propose to Yun Qiao? When are you going?"
He Tingjun: "In the next few days, the sooner the better."
"Have you filed a marriage report?" Zeng Qi asked.
He Tingjun: "It's done. I'll hand it in tomorrow morning."
Zeng Qi nodded. "Just beat her up. Yun Qiao is Captain Qin's younger sister. Her family background is fine, so the trial will be quick."
