"Yes, Brother Yitong also knows him. He's Xiao Jianping, an apprentice in our car team."
Xiao Jianping has only one criterion for finding a wife, that is, she must be younger than him. In order to get him married and have children as soon as possible, his family can only introduce him to a partner according to his wishes.
But he has been going on blind dates since last year and hasn't found anyone he likes. His family is so anxious that they are almost asking someone to introduce him to a country girl.
It just so happened that Hu Cuifen met his standards, and she was also hardworking and honest, so Li Xu had this idea.
Hu Guilan felt that the name sounded familiar, as if Li Xu had mentioned it before, but she couldn't recall any more specific details. Then she acted as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and after a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Xiao Xu, can I agree to go on a blind date with Cui Fen?"
As an elder sister, she certainly hoped that Hu Cuifen could find a good family.
But she knew the gap between them better.
Hu Cuifen is just an ordinary person without a job. If the guy doesn't really want to date a girl like this and only agrees to it for Li Xu's sake, she thinks it would be better not to go.
Li Xu understood what she meant, so he explained with a smile, "He doesn't have many requirements for a wife. As long as she's younger than him, it doesn't matter if she has a job or not, and her family background is also not important. And his family members all think the same way."
Hu Guilan suddenly had a strong sense of déjà vu. If the age requirement was removed, this would be exactly the same as Li Ping's original criteria for choosing a spouse...
So she asked, "Is this Xiao Jianping a good person?"
"Yes, his parents both have stable jobs in good companies, and his two older brothers have both moved out. Now he's the only child in the family, so both jobs will be his from now on."
As soon as these words came out, Hu Guilan's expression instantly became excited. She said repeatedly, "Xiao Xu, thank you so much. If possible, it would be best to arrange for them to meet as soon as possible, without waiting for me to finish my work."
She was afraid that other girls would get to such a high-quality partner first, so she wanted Hu Cuifen to meet Xiao Jianping as soon as possible.
Hu Cuifen said hurriedly, "Sister, there's no need to rush. I..."
Before she could finish, Hu Guilan interrupted her, "I'm the eldest sister, listen to me, I'll talk to my parents. Besides, we're just going on a blind date, not getting married. You can still come over during the day."
Seeing her firm attitude, Hu Cuifen had no choice but to nod and agree, then thanked Li Xu.
"Don't be so quick to thank me, and don't rush to agree. Wait until I finish speaking before you decide." Li Xu waved his hand and continued, "Xiao Jianping's conditions are very good, but he will have to support four elderly people in the future: his parents, as well as his grandparents. If you can accept this, I will go to him this afternoon and arrange a meeting for the two of you."
Since ancient times, caring for the elderly has been a big problem, especially when the elderly have health problems.
Although Xiao Jianping's grandparents are in good health now and can take care of themselves, no one can say for sure whether it will be the same in the future.
If an unexpected situation occurs one day and they are unable to take care of themselves, Xiao Jianping and his wife will be responsible for taking care of them.
You have to know that this is not a matter of one or two days, it may take one or two years, or even ten or eight years.
Most people really can’t stick to it, otherwise there wouldn’t be the saying “There is no filial son by the bedside of a long-term patient.”
So Li Xu had to make the situation clear in advance to avoid being blamed later.
Hearing this, Hu Cuifen didn't think much and agreed directly, "I can accept it."
In her opinion, taking care of the elderly is nothing. No matter how hard it is, can it be harder than the life the Hu family had in the past?
Li Xu nodded, took another sip of tea, and then began to talk about Xiao Jianping's preferences so as to increase her chances of success.
After chatting until 1:20, Li Xu got on his bike and drove towards the hemp spinning factory.
After taking the industrial coupons from Sun Xiu, he went to the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative.
After chatting with Uncle Xu at the gate for a while, he went in to collect his salary and industrial coupons.
He pocketed the money and coupons and headed straight for the convoy.
Ever since Hu Yitong and others joined the motorcade, the supply and marketing cooperative would not take them with it on any of its own transportation tasks.
There was no other way. Apprentices and cars received the same subsidies, and the director was reluctant to spend money, so he made this rule.
Li Xu and others didn't want to offend her. After all, they had gone a little too far in order to let Hu Yitong and others in.
Besides, even if you can’t earn subsidies from the supply and marketing cooperative, you can still earn subsidies from other units, and the total amount is quite a lot.
The motorcade has been transporting supplies to the supply and marketing cooperative in the past few days, so the regular workers have a day off today, while the apprentices are working as usual.
When we arrived, we saw several apprentices sitting in a circle chatting.
Li Xu said a few words to the group, then called Xiao Jianping aside and said cheerfully, "Old Xiao, you haven't found a partner yet, why are you laughing?"
The smile on Xiao Jianping's face disappeared instantly, and he said unhappily, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't mention anything that makes me unhappy."
"I have to mention it. I called you here just to tell you about it."
"Hmm?" Xiao Jianping was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"I have a relative, a sixteen-year-old girl, hardworking and good-looking. She happened to come to my house today and said her parents were looking for someone to introduce her to. I figured you hadn't found a partner yet, so I stopped her and planned to let you two meet first." Then Li Xu chuckled, "How about it, Lao Xiao, brother, I treat you well, don't I?"
Xiao Jianping's face darkened. "Why are you acting like a matchmaker?"
