Free Days in Siheyuan

Things have been sent to Northeast China and Baoding, and naturally my uncle and the old housekeeper and his wife in Beijing are also indispensable.

However, Zhang Yu didn't plan to send it away now. He planned to take it there when he paid New Year's greetings.

Zhang Guifang was busy here for several days, and it was not until the afternoon of the 28th of the twelfth lunar month that she finally had some time to rest.

On this day, Zhang Guifang, who had a rare rest, couldn't sit still in the house, so she went out to chat with Aunt Zhao and others at the gate. At this moment, an old lady wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket walked over from the alley.

The old lady looked a little unfamiliar. Zhang Guifang and the others looked at each other curiously. The old lady's eyes lit up when she saw them, and then she walked directly towards the door of Zhang Yu and their courtyard.

After the old lady came over, she first greeted Zhang Guifang and the others politely, and then started chatting with everyone very familiarly.

The familiar look almost made Zhang Guifang and the others think that they knew each other and were very familiar with each other.

When everyone asked her why she came, the old lady said, "I'm here to be a matchmaker. Please ask if there is a family named Zhao in your courtyard."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Guifang and Aunt Zhao looked at each other.

Logically speaking, both of their families have the surname Zhao.

Aunt Zhao took the initiative to stand up and said, "There are two families named Zhao in our courtyard. Which one are you looking for?"

When she heard that there were two families with the surname Zhao in the courtyard, the old lady was startled for a moment, then she quickly said, "I'm looking for the Zhao family who has a child named Zhao Feng."

When she heard that she was looking for her, Zhang Guifang stood up and said, "I am, who are you?"

When she heard that Zhang Guifang was the Zhao family she was looking for, the old lady became even more enthusiastic and took the initiative to introduce herself: "My husband's surname is Lai. You can call me Mrs. Lai. I don't have much else. I usually rely on matchmaking. live."

As soon as she heard that the other party was a matchmaker, Zhang Guifang had a plan in mind. She warmly welcomed the other party into the house and made hot tea for the other party.

After Zhang Guifang left, a group of old ladies started chatting at the door.

"Someone has taken a liking to the boss of the Zhao family!"

Aunt Zhao said: "Xiao Feng is a nice kid with good conditions, so it's not surprising that someone likes him. Good guys these days also rely on robbing. If you slow down a little, it won't be your turn."

Aunt Qi nodded and agreed very much: "That's the truth. You can't just stare at this important matter in life and not take action. When it's time to take action, you have to act more swiftly. Otherwise, how will this good daughter and son-in-law get your house?"

The other old ladies also nodded, obviously they also had a deep understanding of this.

One of the old ladies said quite proudly: "I agree with this, my two daughters-in-law, okay?"

Everyone nodded. The other party's two daughters-in-law were indeed good-looking, with generous personalities, and they were not unable to stand up to each other. They were also very filial, but they made many people jealous.

When everyone agreed, the old lady became even more proud. She passed on her experience and said, "It's not because I acted quickly. After I made some inquiries after I was chosen, I immediately found a matchmaker to help me negotiate peace, and that's how I got two such good wives." Damn it, you didn’t know it back then, but there were so many people interested in my two daughters-in-law. If I had been slower, my daughter-in-law would have belonged to someone else.

But my two daughters-in-law are really good, filial and considerate. This old woman is enjoying a great blessing. "

My daughter-in-law is a nice person, and the old lady is not stingy with her praises. She often praises her daughter-in-law again and again in front of everyone.

The daughters-in-law also reciprocate the favor. The mother-in-law praises them outside and gives them face, so they naturally treat her mother-in-law better.

Aunt Zhao praised: "You deserve this. This is sincerity for sincerity. No one around us treats my daughter-in-law as well as you." A group of old ladies said, and then they talked about Zhao Feng.

Not to mention Aunt Zhao, the person who introduced Zhao Feng to a confused partner, others had also heard about Zhao Feng's recent conversations with the partner.

Although Zhao Feng kept it secret and didn't tell anyone about it, there was such a big fuss at the time and someone came to his door to stage such a big scene. How could he completely hide it?

These old ladies are all well-informed, and they all know pretty much what happened back then.

Some people sighed: "Xiao Feng is a really good child, but the marriage is a little unsatisfactory."

After hearing what she said, the other old ladies obviously remembered those things and sighed.

Aunt Zhao felt a little guilty, as she had contributed to this.

But she didn't know that her eldest sister-in-law's niece was so unreliable. If she had known earlier, she would never have taken this job.

Worried about getting angry, Aunt Zhao hurriedly changed the topic when it came to herself: "It's bitter first and then sweet. With so much trouble before, maybe the fate destined for Xiaofeng's child has not come yet, and he has no fate with the previous ones. Wait for the fate. When it arrives, it will definitely be good.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded.

Compared with the excitement outside, the atmosphere between Zhang Guifang and Mrs. Lai in the room was a bit awkward.

Zhao Feng was also at the age to get married. Apart from the previous incidents, Zhang Guifang, who was not very anxious at first, couldn't help but worry about her eldest son.

Privately, I couldn't help but murmur to Zhao Wenzhuo, why is my eldest son's marriage so troubled when everything goes smoothly? Could it be...

Zhang Guifang was naturally happy to see a matchmaker come to her door. However, just because she was worried about her son's marriage did not mean that it was okay for a girl.

Zhao Feng is the eldest son of the family, and the daughter-in-law he marries is the eldest daughter-in-law of the family.

Although she didn't expect her eldest daughter-in-law to be like her mother, or how good the other's younger brothers and sisters would be. After all, she was her biological mother, so she didn't need to worry about those things, but she couldn't be too calculating.

Although the children in the family are all promising, they are not greedy for what the couple has in their hands.

But Zhang Guifang has already made up her mind. She and her husband both have jobs and will have pensions in the future. There is no need for her children to pay money to the family. In the future, they will live by themselves even when they are older.

As for the children, those who are willing to live with them can continue to live here. Those who are capable and can be assigned a house can move out if they are willing to move out. They don't care.

If the children want to buy something for them, they will accept it. If they don’t want to buy it, they won’t be angry. They have money and can buy it themselves.

Therefore, the things in the family will not be like other families, most of which will be left to the one who provides for the two of them in old age. They have already planned to share it equally, whether it is the daughter, son, or nephew, all the children will be divided equally.

Mrs. Lai didn't know that Zhang Guifang, who was sitting opposite her, had thought so much in a short period of time.

She quietly looked at the situation of the Zhao family, and the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became.

However, for the sake of the woman's reputation, she did not say who she was first. Instead, she inquired carefully about Zhao Feng's situation and what Zhang Guifang wanted from her daughter-in-law.
