Chapter 182: Blind Date for Son
While brothers Zhao Xiaofei and Zhao Xiaokun were busy destroying the backyard of the courier Li Zicheng, in modern time, Liu Aiping was not only busy taking care of her grandson Zhao Qiji, but also busy arranging a blind date for her eldest son.
Zhao Xiaofei rarely saw anyone, except for the occasional visit from his daughter-in-law, Qin Baobao, who would take him abroad for two days. The rest of the time, he barely saw or heard from her. After his eldest son was taken away by his youngest, he saw even less of him. He occasionally came back to say a few words, and he was much more conscientious than the youngest. Even his hair, like his youngest son's, was growing longer and longer.
Liu Aiping felt her eldest son was no longer a child and should find a partner, get married, and have children. Otherwise, she, as a mother, would feel bad. She couldn't let her younger son's marriage and family be happy without leaving her eldest son behind. So, she decided to arrange a match for her eldest son, and she would personally oversee the selection process.
How pitiful are the parents in the world! But you don’t know that your child has three wives in the other world! And Liu Rushi is pregnant, but we don’t know whether it is a boy or a girl.
In a Beijing villa, Liu Aiping and Qin Baobao were receiving the girls who came to apply for the position of Zhao's eldest daughter-in-law. Liu Aiping held Zhao Qiji and looked at the girls. Liu Aiping said, "Forget it since she's from the countryside!"
A tall girl said, "Auntie, what's wrong with being from the countryside? There are also rich and well-educated people in the countryside! Besides, in today's society, who hasn't been a farmer for three generations?"
Liu Aiping wasn't angry either. After handing Zhao Qiji to the nanny beside her, she gently walked over, looked at the girl with a scrutinizing look, and said, "Girl, do you know what it means to be well-matched?"
"We come from similar backgrounds, have similar upbringings, and educational backgrounds. We have a common language!" said the tall girl.
"That's right! But forget about the fact that the family backgrounds are similar. Our Zhao family is quite well-off and we don't need the girl's family to be that well-off! Judging from the girl's tone, her family background is pretty good. Why did you come to apply to be our eldest daughter-in-law?" Liu Aiping asked.
"My dad asked me to come! I didn't want to come at all!" said the tall girl.
At this time, Qin Baobao walked over and said, "Mom! This is Jin Lai, the daughter of the owner of Jin Yi Jewelry, who we are cooperating with! We sold a lot of gold to her family."
As soon as Qin Baobao finished speaking, Jin Lai said, "You haven't answered my question yet? Why do you look down on people from the countryside?"
"It's not that I look down on people in the countryside. It's because there haven't been any farmers in our family for three or even eighteen generations. Have you read the news about our Zhao family?" Liu Aiping said to Jin Lai.
"No!" said Jin Lai.
At this time, Qin Baobao spoke on behalf of her mother-in-law, "Our family has been soldiers since the Ming Dynasty. Later, when the Qing Dynasty came, our family became Han Eight Banners. During the Republic of China, our family was still soldiers. Even after liberation, our family became workers. Do you think we would marry someone we are not familiar with? We don't look down on farmers, but we prefer to marry someone with a similar family background. What do you think, Miss Jin? If you don't want to, it doesn't matter. We can still be partners in the future!"
Jin Lai was stunned by Qin Baobao's words. What? You're so awesome? But then he thought, your family was a soldier during the Ming Dynasty and even served in the Qing Dynasty. This must have been a surrender. What's so awesome about that? So Jin Lai snorted and left!
Liu Aiping wasn't angry at Jin Lai's behavior and said to the other girls, "It's okay. Just say whatever's on your mind! Whether you're happy or unhappy, you can say it. After all, we're going to be a family in the future, and it's better than just disliking each other."
"Auntie! My name is Song Xin, and I study medicine! I don't think I'm suitable either! The hospital is very busy, and I'm afraid that couples who are not together for a long time may easily become emotionally distant!" Song Xin said.
Liu Aiping looked at Song Xin. She had big, beautiful eyes. She was neither too tall nor too short, a perfect height, and had a well-proportioned figure. Liu Aiping smiled and said, "You're definitely not suitable! Thank you for your hard work."
Qin Baobao stood up and was about to see Song Xin off. Song Xin's eyes were filled with reluctance. Liu Aiping thought to herself: What are you trying to do with me? If you didn't think it was suitable, why would you introduce yourself as a medical student? The rest is all bullshit, just to get my attention. Do you think that just because you're a medical student I think you're a good match for my son? If you were, my son would have already found someone at the hospital. How could it be your turn to apply? Go away, you scheming bitch!
After watching Song Xin being sent away, the other girls fell silent. Liu Aiping felt a sense of accomplishment and thought to herself: Don't play tricks on me, I've eaten more salt than you have eaten rice!
The first two girls were defeated, and the remaining eight girls waited for Liu Aiping to speak before answering. Liu Aiping smiled and said, "Everyone, please introduce yourselves in turn so that we can get to know each other! Let's start with you!" Liu Aiping pointed to a thin little girl with glasses.
"Hello, Auntie! My family asked me to come here, just to give it a try. My name is Wang Jiamin, I'm 27 years old. I've never had a boyfriend before, but my family always pushed me to study, which delayed me. My father is your partner, doing transportation for your company!" Wang Jiamin said, and then she sat down.
Liu Aiping nodded without comment. Then she pointed to the next person and said, "You come and introduce yourself!"
Liu Aiping pointed to a tall and thin girl next to Wang Jiamin. The girl said, "Judy! I'm back from the United States and I'm going to take over my father's business! I like to fight..."
Before Judy could finish, Liu Aiping interrupted her, "Next!" Liu Aiping disliked this kind of overly confident and outspoken girl. If it was her neighbor's daughter, it would be fine, but if it was her own daughter-in-law, forget it. She was already furious! A girl like this didn't align with her values. They would argue constantly!
Just like that, a confident girl was asked to leave, and then three more left. Liu Aiping didn't stop them. If such an unconfident girl had children, it would also be a problem for the children's education. Liu Aiping hoped that her grandchildren would be generous and confident.
After the introductions were complete, Liu Aiping was most pleased with Wang Jiamin. After everyone else left, Wang Jiamin sat there uncomfortably, feeling incredibly nervous. She thought to herself, "I wasn't this nervous even when I was looking for a job myself!"
That's right! Losing your job is no big deal, you can just find another one, but you have to choose your husband carefully. If he returns it, you'll be so embarrassed. This society treats women so unfairly. Men can do whatever they want with marriage and divorce, but they only ask too much of women. Qin Baobao glanced at Wang Jiamin, who returned a confident smile.
