Xie's mother softened her attitude, but still felt embarrassed. After thinking for a while, she said, "Why don't we ask a matchmaker to ask? Whether it's successful or not, whether she has a partner or not, the matchmaker will tell us everything."
Xie Tao felt uneasy when she mentioned the matchmaker. She looked at Xie's mother and said, "If we ask the matchmaker to run around and pass on the message, maybe something will go wrong. I'll ask him myself, it's the clearest and most direct."
Xie's mother looked at Xie Tao's face and was silent for a moment.
Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then go and ask him."
What if Ruan Changsheng really has Xie Tao in his heart, and because Xie Tao has never asked the matchmaker about her partner, if he doesn't ask clearly and fight for it, then wouldn't he really miss it?
If it really works out, there will be a good life after getting married, so it's okay to rush.
Xie Tao also held on to this glimmer of hope. When she lay in bed at night, she silently prayed that Ruan Cuizhi and Ruan Xi were just talking nonsense out of hatred. She prayed that Ruan Changsheng didn't have a partner yet, and she prayed that he still cared about her.
As long as he was still willing, she would not put forward any conditions this time.
Because she was worried, she didn't sleep well that night, and she woke up very early the next day.
But after she got up, she didn't rush to Fengyan Village. She calculated the time in her mind, thinking that she should arrive during the lunch break, when Ruan Changsheng should be at home.
If she went early, he should be at work. It was really inconvenient to go to the construction site to find him, with so many people watching.
Because she had enough time, she carefully cleaned up at home for half a day.
She found the beautiful clothes that she usually wore when visiting relatives and put them on, combed her hair neatly, even combed the ends of her hair, painted her eyebrows with burnt matchsticks, and pursed her lips with red paper.
After packing, she took some food and left home, feeling both nervous and excited as she headed for Fengyan Village. As she walked, she took a deep breath and muttered to herself, hoping that her trip would not be in vain. Before
, when she met Ruan Changsheng, it was Ruan Changsheng who went to the Chiyu Brigade to find her, and she never went to the Fengyan Brigade to find Ruan Changsheng. This time, it was her turn to go to the Fengyan Brigade in person, and she brought things with her. Ruan Changsheng should be moved by her.
Xie Tao wiped the sweat off her face and arrived at the Fengyan Brigade, just when everyone had just finished lunch.
After she entered the village, she saw two old ladies taking a cool under a big tree with umbrella-like branches and leaves. She walked over and asked politely, "Grandma, may I ask how to get to Ruan Zhigao's house?"
The old lady turned around and pointed, "Go that way."
Xie Tao said thank you, picked up her things and was about to leave, but she came back after taking just two steps.
She pursed her lips, stood there hesitantly for a while, looked at the two old ladies and asked again: "Mother-in-law, can I ask you if Ruan Zhigao's youngest son, Ruan Changsheng, has found a partner?"
The old lady said: "I haven't heard of it, so I guess not, the family didn't find a matchmaker."
Xie Tao's eyes lit up slightly, and she asked again: "Then has he found a partner himself?"
The old lady said: "Then I haven't heard of it either."
Xie Tao felt relieved, took a deep breath, thanked the two old ladies again, and went in the direction they pointed.
When she was almost at Ruan Changsheng's house, a child led the way for her.
When they arrived at Ruan Changsheng's door, the child stuck his head in and shouted, "Xiao Wuzi, someone is looking for you!"
Ruan Changsheng came out of the house upon hearing the voice. He didn't care who was looking for him at first, but stretched out his hand and slapped the child on the head, saying to the child playfully, "You are disrespectful. Who are you calling Xiao Wuzi?"
The child touched his head and stretched out his hand to point back, "A sister is looking for you."
Ruan Changsheng looked in the direction of his finger and saw Xie Tao standing not far away.
Xie Tao was dressed very fresh and beautiful today, wearing a clean white coat with floral patterns, and looked at him with a smile. After a while, she came up and handed the cloth bag in her hand to Ruan Changsheng, smiling and saying, "I brought something home."
Ruan Changsheng had a question mark on his forehead, looked at Xie Tao in confusion, and did not stretch out his hand to take it.
Liu Xinghua's voice came from the house, "Xiao Wuzi, who is looking for you?"
Ruan Changsheng hurriedly replied, "A friend."
After that, he walked out and called Xie Tao, "Let's talk outside."
He didn't let her in, nor did he let her see his parents. Xie Tao's smile subconsciously froze, but only for a moment.
She followed Ruan Changsheng with a cloth bag, and stopped at a place far away from anyone to talk.
Ruan Changsheng didn't have any special feelings for her, but just asked curiously, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Xie Tao pursed her lips slightly, raised her eyes and looked at Ruan Changsheng.
As a girl, she was still reserved and wanted to save face, and she couldn't let go of her airs.
After hesitating for a moment, she lowered her head and took a deep breath, then gritted her teeth and said, "I asked when I came here, and the mother-in-law in the village said that you don't have a partner yet, and your family hasn't hired a matchmaker. Aunt Wu said you asked me if I have found a partner, so I'm here to tell you that I don't have a partner either. After looking around, I think... you are the best..."
After hearing this, Ruan Changsheng couldn't help but laugh.
Hearing him laugh, Xie Tao raised her head to look at him again and asked in a low voice: "What are you laughing at?"
Ruan Changsheng stopped laughing and cleared his throat, saying: "I just heard her say that she was from Chiyu Village, so I asked casually. I really didn't mean anything else. I think you may have misunderstood something. And no matter what happens, I will not send my third sister back to her husband's house, so we are really not suitable."
Xie Tao looked at him and said sincerely: "There is nothing wrong with your third sister living in her parents' home. It's lively with so many people."
Ruan Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly reacted.
Yesterday, Ruan Xi and Ruan Cuizhi went to Chiyu Brigade to make clothes, and today Xie Tao came to see him in person. This was not an unrelated coincidence. It was that the Xie family saw Ruan Cuizhi and wanted to take advantage of him.
He cleared his throat again, and there was no smile on his face at all.
He looked at Xie Tao and said directly: "My third sister may not want to live with you."
Xie Tao's smile disappeared instantly, and she lowered her head to avoid making herself look more embarrassed.
Ruan Changsheng took into consideration that she was a girl and had a delicate face, so he softened his tone and said: "It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore. There are many men who are better than me, and you are so good, you can find someone better than me, there is no need to be like this."
Xie Tao could feel Ruan Changsheng's care for her, and she felt wronged instantly, sniffed with wet eyes and said: "But... I still think you are good... My family doesn't mind your third sister's affairs anymore, we..."
"No, we."
Ruan Changsheng interrupted her, a little impatient.
He didn't want to see her crying, and she obviously didn't suffer any injustice, so he said a little rudely: "Even if your family was willing to give in at that time, I would not marry you. You shouldn't have mentioned this matter."
Xie Tao raised her head, "Should I die for making a condition?"
Ruan Changsheng said: "No, but this is how it is for me. I won't marry you if you mention it."
Xie Tao bit her lips, her lips turned pale, the more uncomfortable she felt in her heart, the more she refused to give up, and asked again after a while: "Then why haven't you asked the matchmaker for a partner for so long? Isn't it because of me?"
Ruan Changsheng couldn't help laughing again, and Xie Tao felt uncomfortable all over as if she was bitten by an ant.
After stopping laughing, he said, "Miss Xie, you really think too much. If I couldn't let you go, with my personality, I would have gone to the Akabane Brigade to look for you a hundred times, and you wouldn't have to come to me. I just think blind dates are boring, so I plan to find a partner and talk to them myself."
Xie Tao then asked, "Have you found one?"
Ruan Changsheng was about to speak when he suddenly heard a clear and full female voice: "Ruan Changsheng!"
He turned his head and saw that the little brat from the village had brought another girl from somewhere.
This girl was not from the village. She was very beautiful and stylish, with a white and clean face and big eyes. She wore a bright red top with two braids hanging in front of her. She had a very bright smile on her face, as bright and dazzling as the sun.
He frowned and looked at the girl. No matter how
he looked at her, he felt that she looked familiar. After a while, he recognized her. His eyes gradually widened and he couldn't help but mutter, "Fuck..."
Is this... Qianchuan? ?
The Qianchuan that looked like it crawled out of a coal mine and didn't look like a girl at all? ? ?
Xie Tao also saw Qianchuan, the girl who was brighter than a flower.
Her face was very stiff, and she asked Ruan Changsheng, "Who is this?"
Ruan Changsheng turned around and ran towards Qianchuan, "My girlfriend!"
