Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Since Xu Mingmei has feelings for Ou Jiajie, and Ou Jiajie has also taken a liking to Xu Mingmei, this matter of mutual willingness is easy to handle.

That very night, Wang Dashan gave Ou Jiajie a call and told him about Xu Mingmei's attitude.

Upon hearing this news, Ou Jiajie was immediately overjoyed and explicitly expressed his stance, hoping Wang Dashan could help him get Xu Mingmei as soon as possible.

For this, he even generously sent Wang Dashan a red envelope of two thousand yuan.

Wang Dashan knew he couldn't refuse Ou Jiajie's red envelope, not because he was greedy for these two thousand yuan, but because he needed to accept these two thousand yuan to make Ou Jiajie trust him even more.

He never imagined in any way that he, a real estate agent, would end up doing the work of a matchmaker.

To put it nicely, it's a matchmaker; to put it bluntly, it's actually a pimp procuring for others.

Moreover, pimping for this kind of thing violates morality; if this matter gets exposed, it will absolutely destroy Ou Jiajie's original family, and cause no small harm to Ou Jiajie's wife and children.

But to keep Ou Jiajie this client, Wang Dashan didn't want to care about that much anymore.

Ever since breaking up with Du Xiaojuan, he had put earning money in the first place; as for everything else, no matter what it was, it all had to take a back seat.

After accepting Ou Jiajie's red envelope, Wang Dashan immediately went to work for Ou Jiajie.

He gave Xu Mingmei a call, telling her Ou Jiajie wanted to contact her as soon as possible, asking for her opinion.

Wang Dashan also very thoughtfully gave Xu Mingmei a suggestion: this kind of thing cannot be rushed; haste makes waste, one must take it slow to get a handle on Ou Jiajie.

But Xu Mingmei didn't listen; she didn't want long nights breeding many dreams; what she wanted wasn't to date Ou Jiajie, but to negotiate terms with Ou Jiajie.

And to negotiate terms with Ou Jiajie, she absolutely had to get a handle on Ou Jiajie's leverage as quickly as possible.

So she said:

"You go tell Ou Jiajie, tomorrow night, I'll be waiting for him at the Rujia Hotel near Shanhai Real Estate, I'll wait for him the whole night, whenever he comes is fine, as long as he can come."

Wang Dashan's face immediately showed surprise.

"Mingmei, won't this be developing too fast?"

Wang Dashan weakly reminded.

But Xu Mingmei said:

"You just do as I say, I have my own plans."

Wang Dashan could only say nothing more, and honestly went to relay the message to Ou Jiajie.

Upon hearing this news, Ou Jiajie was immediately so happy he sent Wang Dashan another two thousand yuan red envelope.

Early the next morning, Xu Mingmei gave Wang Dashan a call, saying she wasn't coming to work today.

Wang Dashan was very curious; her date with Ou Jiajie wasn't until the evening, so why wasn't she coming to work in the morning?

Xu Mingmei said she needed to go book the hotel in advance and set up the venue a bit.

Additionally, she needed to hire a makeup artist to do her makeup and handle clothing matching and such.

It could be seen that Xu Mingmei attached great importance to this date with Ou Jiajie.

Wang Dashan just couldn't figure it out; the hotel staff would get the room ready, so why did she still need to go set up the venue in advance?

Wang Dashan didn't know that Xu Mingmei was going in advance to install a pinhole camera.

Whether she could get a handle on Ou Jiajie depended on the footage captured by this pinhole camera.

Wang Dashan didn't know the situation, and didn't want to understand too much.

He just peacefully acted as a messenger; as long as he could keep Ou Jiajie this quality client, that was fine.

The rest he didn't want to manage, and couldn't manage even if he wanted to.

No clients came over today, Wang Dashan was rarely at leisure.

Suddenly he remembered today was the day his grandfather's bones were being buried.

So he made a call back to ask how things were going.

Wang Dashan is actually a bit contradictory; sometimes he believes in feng shui, sometimes he doesn't take feng shui seriously at all.

He felt his grandfather's third burial would more or less affect his feng shui, so he still called to show concern and inquire.

When Wang Zhanggen received Wang Dashan's call, he was digging the grave pit on the mountain.

He had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and an iron shovel in his hand.

Beside him was the golden urn he and his eldest brother Wang Zhangtian had carried over; inside the golden urn were the old man's skeletal remains.

The Geography Master instructed from the side on how to dig the grave pit.

The orientation and depth of the grave pit all have very particular rules.

The slightest deviation, and the feng shui results brought about will differ by ten thousand and eight thousand miles.

Wang Xiaohua was digging the grave pit inside the grave pit.

His short stature meant that standing in the grave pit, only a small head was visible.

This person is just like this; he sees things through from start to finish.

Since he came for the bone collection before, he definitely had to come along for the burial too.

He wanted to personally witness the entire process, to gain a deeper understanding of the bone collection and burial custom.

Just like doing a math problem, every step must be clearly understood.

"Hello, what's up?"

Wang Zhanggen answered Wang Dashan's call, sounding somewhat impatient.

In his heart, he still hoped Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai would both stay to bury the old man together.

If not for Geography Master saying their absence wouldn't matter, he absolutely would not have let Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai return to Guangzhou.

"Dad, actually it's nothing, I just wanted to ask if Grandpa has been buried?"

Wang Dashan's concerned voice came from the other end of the phone.

Wang Zhanggen said coldly:

"He's being buried right now, Xiao Hua came over to help too. Let me say this, the old man sees you not coming, only Xiao Hua came alone, I reckon he'll favor Xiao Hua, and from now on only bless Xiao Hua, whether he blesses you all is anyone's guess!"

Wang Zhanggen still had resentment in his heart, which was why he said such words.

Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai disregarded his opinion and insisted on returning to Guangzhou early, which simply made him lose too much face.

Wang Dashan could only give a dry laugh:

"Dad, if Grandpa can bless Xiao Hua to get into a good university, that's also a good thing. I'm doing this for work, aren't I? Don't be angry with me, okay?"

Wang Zhanggen said instead:

"How dare I be angry with you? Your wings have hardened, you hold no one in your eyes anymore, what can I do?"

Wang Dashan's face was full of speechlessness, and he felt depressed in his heart.

He kindly called back to show concern, only to receive his father's cold mockery and sarcasm.

It was truly a mood-killer.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have called back.

So he said:

"Dad, you go ahead and be busy, I have guests coming, I'll hang up first. When I return for Spring Festival, I'll personally offer incense to Grandpa."

After saying this, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

His face full of depression.

His good mood was ruined.

On the other side, Wang Zhanggen saw Wang Dashan hang up so hurriedly, and kept muttering nonstop:

"I didn't tell you to hang up, and you hung up. Don't you understand what respect means? Your wings have really hardened, you don't put me in your eyes anymore!"

Seeing this, Xiao Hua was immediately speechless:

"Didn't Geography Master say that Big Brother and Second Brother not coming today doesn't affect the feng shui? Why are you saying so much!"

Wang Zhanggen said instead:

"I'm doing this for their own good, hoping they can receive the old man's blessing. They do business outside, without ancestral blessings, how can they prosper?"

Seeing his reaction, Xiao Hua was even more speechless.

This old man had always cared about face, but weren't all his various actions always making him lose face?

Not only that, standing to the side, Wang Zhangtian and Geography Master, seeing him like this, wanted to laugh.

Geography Master even kindly advised:

"Master of the house, don't be angry. Being angry here will affect the feng shui. When the old man's 'new house' enters the fire, it should be joyful and celebratory. You can't put on a black face!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhanggen then forcibly controlled his emotions, not daring to reveal his resentment toward Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai anymore.

After burying the old man's golden bones, Wang Zhangtian and his wife also had lunch at Wang Zhanggen's home.

During the meal, Wang Zhangtian couldn't help but ask:

"Younger brother, didn't Dashan and Erhai say they'd pick up my Yaohua on the 6th to go to Guangzhou together? But now they've already gone to Guangzhou early. What about the 6th? Should Yaohua go down by herself?"

Wang Zhanggen said without much thought:

"No need. When the time comes, have them drive back to pick up Yaohua. Anyway, from Guangzhou back to our County Town, it doesn't take long. The whole expressway takes a little over an hour."

Zhao Lifen weakly suggested:

"Why don't you ask them first what they think? I'm afraid that when the time comes they'll be busy and have no time to come back. If they have no time to come back, we can just let Yaohua take the vehicle down by herself."

Wang Zhanggen insisted:

"No need to ask. When the time comes, even if they're unwilling to come back, I'll call them back!"

To demonstrate his family status, he acted on his own initiative like this.

If he called Wang Dashan at this time to ask for his opinion, wouldn't that show he had no decision-making authority in the family? Wouldn't that make him lose face!

So there was no need to ask anything. When the time comes, just have them come back directly!
