Protagonist:

Chai Mi

After dinner, Chai Mi and the others went home.

Song Qiushui also went straight to sleep, leaving only Song Qingshan, who had to do the work, to endure Meng Clan's complaints.

"You're a real fucking Rice Bucket. I told you, don't leave too much meat on that chicken leg. Keep as much meat as possible to make that fried chicken fillet. This chicken leg doesn't make money, yet you still try your hardest to leave meat on it. You're really nothing……"

Song Qingshan's old face reddened: "Anyway, it's all cut already. I'll pay attention tomorrow……"

"Tomorrow you'll be capable? You'll know how to work……" After finishing her complaints, Meng Clan pickled those chicken pieces and put them in the storage room.

This storage room has windows, two big windows, but no door was installed, which is more convenient.

As a result, the work wasn't even finished when Song Qiushui's second great-uncle came again.

Song Qiushui's second great-uncle is called Meng Tieshan. He lives quite far from here, in Si Jia Bei Gou.

Hearing this place name, one can imagine that place isn't anything good either.

Of course, Ke County's local place names are all quite casual. There aren't any poetic, picturesque names like in the South.

For example, the South has nice-sounding names like Yunfu, Shangrao, Jiujiang, Pingxiang. Ke County just has this ditch that ditch, this family that family, this Yingzi that Yingzi, or simply incomprehensible ones like Er Bu Chi, Yan Wang Dian, Xia Wan Zi, Shang He Tao.

Mainly featuring complete arbitrariness.

Si Jia Bei Gou is this type. The name tells you there were originally four households living in the north ditch.

Meng Tieshan is quite old. The old codger is eighty-two, hard of hearing and dim of sight, yet loves meddling in idle matters.

This isn't to badmouth Meng Tieshan, but he originally came to Song Qiushui's house precisely to meddle.

As mentioned earlier, these second, third, fourth great-uncles have no proper business all day, just researching how to introduce a partner to Song Qiushui.

Ask them and they say Song Qiushui is already not young, she should fucking get married, dressing all gaudy every day, not looking like a proper person, how will she find a husband's family later? The kids are grown and you're not anxious, but I'm anxious.

Roughly calculated, adding up to today they've already introduced Song Qiushui to nearly ten to twenty partners.

Over ninety percent, Song Qiushui directly doesn't want to hear about.

The rest, Song Qiushui doesn't want to look at.

Mainly because this group is bizarre and abstract; the ones they introduce are all crooked melons and cracked dates.

They just say Song Qiushui's age is big…… she's fucking eighteen or nineteen, what kind are they trying to find?

As long as it's a man, it's fine.

Song Qiushui opposes once.

This group starts nagging endlessly, saying Song Qiushui you're just a leftover woman……

In another ten or eight years, you won't be able to have children at all.

Listening to it, it's just abstract.

But there's no way.

Song Qiushui still has to humor these great-uncles. After all, they're all this old and won't live many more years.

So today, Second Great-Uncle Meng Tieshan's purpose in coming is to introduce another partner to Song Qiushui.

And this partner is good: unmarried, alive, male……

Meng Tieshan wore a tattered black jacket, black pants, black shoes, white hair, and his mouth wasn't too nimble either.

"Ah…… Old Three, I'm here."

Meng Clan is the third daughter in her natal family, so Meng Tieshan calls her Old Three.

Hearing the voice, Meng Clan looked up: Holy shit! This old codger still fucking isn't dead? He fucking came again.

Although dissatisfied in her heart, she couldn't say it. She welcomed Meng Tieshan in with a smile, into the house: "Aiya, Second Uncle, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you? Those few you introduced are truly no good."

Meng Tieshan introduced a total of five partners to Song Qiushui.

The first partner, because the age was too old, already twenty-eight or twenty-nine, was rejected by Song Qiushui.

The second partner, because his face was possibly full of pimples, was also rejected.

The third partner, divorced. Although not old in years, was also rejected.

The fourth partner, because he couldn't have children, was a congenital eunuch, was also flatly rejected by Song Qiushui.

The fifth partner, so-so, but because he had no education, the question of one plus one equals what was too complex for him, and was directly rejected by Meng Clan.

After five consecutive rejections, Meng Tieshan learned from the pain and prepared thoroughly this time.

Planning to introduce a good one to Song Qiushui.

Unmarried, not a retard, looks passable, is a man, age not too old. Completely avoiding the defects of the previous five times.

So, Meng Tieshan feels this time is definitely okay.

"Old Three, this time I plan to introduce a particularly good family to Qiu Shui. Their family, is the most prosperous in our village. No famine at home, don't need to go out begging for food. The kid looks okay too……"

Song Qiushui, who was just about to sleep, was woken by the noise. She came out, saw Meng Tieshan: "Aiyo, Second Great-Uncle, you're here again. Come come come…… sit sit sit."

Song Qiushui smiled, pulling Meng Tieshan to sit at the Kang head: "You, you old man, research some proven things. All day you just ponder what partner to introduce me. You'd better look at yourself……"

"What about me?"

"You haven't even had a wife for eighty-some years as a bachelor. You're idle enough to introduce partners for others, why don't you busy yourself with one?" Song Qiushui laughed thievishly happy: "How about it, Second Great-Uncle, I'll introduce one for you."

"No no no, at my age, what would you introduce?" Meng Tieshan directly refused.

Song Qiushui waved a hand, spouting vernacular: "Second Great-Uncle, a man can't say he's no good. You have to perk up. I'll introduce one for you, so when you're older later, you'll have a companion."

Meng Tieshan's face twitched: I fucking seem like my current age isn't big? And fucking later have a companion?

"I'm over eighty. This life is just like this. However it passes, it's almost over. Don't go wasting money for nothing."

"Do you have money?"

"No."

"If you have no money, whose money are you ruining?"

Meng Tieshan was speechless: "Uh... no, I want to introduce you to a partner."

"You don't even have a partner yourself, how can you introduce one to me?" Song Qiushui was unhappy: "The one you introduced is no good, not a decent human being at all. Either blind or defective. Let me introduce you to one, Wang Huirong from our village..."

The Meng clan frowned: "Qiushui, don't talk nonsense."

"How am I talking nonsense?" Song Qiushui laughed hehehe: "That Wang Huirong's husband beat her, and now he's inside, probably won't come out. As for her, she can't get by anymore, so poor she can't afford food. Put it this way, Second Uncle, take two steamed buns and you can take Wang Huirong away."

"Wang Huirong... I have some impression." Meng Tieshan really listened. "The problem is her old man hasn't died yet..."

"That's simple, Second Uncle, show your great power and kill her old man, then you'll have a chance."

Meng Tieshan:!!!

Song Qingshan:...

The Meng clan tugged at Song Qiushui's sleeve: "Qiushui, be serious. Don't mess around. How old is your Second Uncle? You're still teasing him."

Meng Tieshan said: "Killing people is against the law, but you said that someone's husband, can he still come out?"

"Scorching."

"Then..." Meng Tieshan hadn't finished speaking.

The Meng clan hurriedly stopped him: "Second Uncle, what are you doing? You're so old, how can you not understand Qiushui is teasing you?"

The Meng clan then scolded Song Qiushui: "Enough, you keep saying... sigh, your Second Uncle is over eighty, can he still do it?"

"Who the hell said I can't?" Meng Tieshan said: "I can."

The Meng clan had a huge headache: "Alright, Second Uncle, stop researching useless things. You're eighty, what can you do? You have no money..."

"I'll pay..." Song Qiushui gestured that she would pay: "Wang Huirong is cheap, just two steamed buns, definitely can be tricked away. Second Uncle, I'll give you six steamed buns."

Old man Meng Tieshan was really old, he actually believed it, and kept asking about Wang Huirong.

It made the Meng clan feel terrible.

Song Qingshan made tea on the side, then took out cigarettes and handed them to Meng Tieshan: "Second Uncle, smoke."

Meng Tieshan smoked, thoughtfully saying: "We're all family, if there's really a suitable one, I'll look into it."

The Meng clan was almost collapsing, this was more annoying than Meng Tieshan introducing a partner to Song Qiushui.

This Meng Tieshan really should die... this old bastard, how could he really believe it.

"Second Uncle, have you eaten? We just finished, let me get some for you?" The Meng clan said: "Stop researching other things. You can't support a wife. When you were young, you didn't find one, at this age what are you going to find?"

"What if... besides, it sounds like my Second Uncle is very bad." Meng Tieshan said.

The Meng clan: Aren't you very bad?

The Meng clan's father had four brothers, only the Meng clan's father had a wife, Second Uncle never married a wife in his lifetime, Third Uncle married a widow, and after the widow got her own son married, she ran away.

Fourth Uncle is even worse, he seemed not very smart, and was blind, and married a wife who was also blind.

As a result, the two of them couldn't find home all day, nor could they find each other.

They kept groping in the dark.

In a year they couldn't find it a few times.

Later they got older, their legs and feet were inconvenient, and they couldn't find it even more.

The Meng clan's home was okay, but Meng Tieshan was really so poor he couldn't eat, relying on begging outside for meals.

In this day and age, Meng Tieshan still lived by begging.

The Meng clan occasionally helped him, but Meng Tieshan didn't want money.

Nor anything else.

He refused the Meng clan's help, he felt self-reliance was better.

So the old man kept walking alone on the road of begging, or preparing to go on the road of begging.

As for home...

Meng Tieshan had the four seas as his home.

Spring in this township, summer changing townships, autumn directly sitting in someone else's field eating corn. Catching him was useless, he really wasn't a thief, he was hungry, what's wrong with eating a few raw corns?

Is it against the law?

It's not against the law.

Meng Tieshan would starve to death without begging, let alone eating a few raw corns, even if he ate a giant panda, someone would say he was right.

Of course, there are no giant pandas in the Northeast, only Northeast tigers.

But Meng Tieshan had never eaten a Northeast tiger, after all he couldn't beat it...

So, Meng Tieshan had no money, no nest. Except for Meng Tieshan's righteousness, he had nothing else.

"Second Uncle, this..." The Meng clan was really speechless: "Let me tell you, that Wang Huirong has a son, she definitely can't find a husband, and wouldn't find someone like you. You can't even afford food, why would she find you?"

Meng Tieshan was unhappy: "What do you mean? I can't afford food, how did I live to eighty-two?"

The Meng clan: "Uh..."

It was really a headache.

Song Qingshan hurriedly helped the Meng clan out: "Her Second Uncle, you didn't come to introduce a partner to Qiushui? Who is this introduction?"

Meng Tieshan then changed his mind: "Oh... I almost forgot if you didn't mention it. This one introduced this time, that's really good. That guy's family conditions are especially good, the richest person in the village. He never begged for food in his life..."

Song Qingshan's mouth was twisted with anger: Hiss...

The Meng clan also had a headache: Really damn sinful.

"Second Uncle, have you eaten?"

"No."

The Meng clan hurriedly prepared some food for Meng Tieshan to eat.

After eating, Meng Tieshan forgot what had just happened: "Where was I?"

Song Qiushui and the others remained silent, afraid that if they spoke up, Meng Tieshan would remember.

After a while, Meng Tieshan remembered on his own: "Oh, my memory. I remember now—the person introduced to Qiu Shui is a man."

Song Qiushui laughed hehehe: "Uncle, sorry about that. I like women now."

"No, wait until I finish. That kid is twenty-two this year, unmarried, and looks decent. It's not far from your home either..." Meng Tieshan said.

"Too late, too late, Uncle, I really don't like men anymore. You're too late, let's not talk about this. No..."

"He's quite rich..."

"Eat, eat."

Meng Tieshan stopped eating and said angrily: "Qiu Shui, you look down on me."

"No, no, no, I didn't say it outright." Song Qiushui laughed happily: "You said it yourself."

Meng Tieshan was so angry his stomach hurt: "Oh, you child... I've introduced matches to over two hundred people. Your Da Jiu was one I introduced."

"Later, my Da Jiu's wife beat my Da Jiu to death with a hammer..."

"Your Second Uncle was also introduced by me."

"My Second Uncle's wife threw away two children and ran off with another man..."

Meng Tieshan was speechless for a moment: "Anyway, you have to trust me, I can't possibly introduce you to someone bad. You're not young anymore, it's time to settle down. What if you don't marry? What will you do then? Begging like me."

Song Qiushui teased Meng Tieshan for a while, then found it boring: "Fine, I have a boyfriend now, you don't need to introduce anyone. Uncle, stay here, I have things to do tomorrow, I'm going out."

After saying that, Song Qiushui ran away directly.

Meng Tieshan kept chattering on to the Meng clan and Song Qingshan: "Look at Qiu Shui, I'm saying good things. She's young now and doesn't understand. When she reaches my age, she'll understand—it's good to have a partner..."

"Eat, eat. Second Uncle, at your age, what's the point of having a partner?" The Meng clan said helplessly: "Having a partner isn't necessarily good. Look at me, I have a partner too..."

The Meng clan looked at Song Qingshan: "Look at my man, he's good for nothing, worse than you. Good for nothing at everything."

Meng Tieshan continued his own story, not listening to what the Meng clan said: "When a person gets older, it's good to have a companion. Right, that person Qiu Shui mentioned..."
