Chapter 84

Looking at Wan Ping'an with doubt.

"This golden rice has a magical characteristic: it's white before full maturity, and only turns golden after full maturity."

Wan Ping'an answered.

Xu Huirong suddenly realized, no wonder it was white when she came last time.

When the two were talking.

Chen Xueru circled Wan Ping'an three times, looking him up and down.

"What are you doing?"

Wan Ping'an felt a bit creeped out.

He wasn't used to being studied, especially by a young and beautiful woman.

"I want to study what makes you different from others?"

"The tomatoes, pumpkins, and watermelons you grew, and the golden rice in front of us, are all too magical, ordinary people can't do it."

Chen Xueru still wanted to continue studying.

"Stop!"

"I'm just an ordinary person, there's nothing special about me, no need to study anymore!"

Wan Ping'an remembered some crazy scientists in movies who would ignore all rules for the sake of research, including cutting people up alive to study them.

Did Chen Xueru want to cut him up too?

"Stingy ghost, what's wrong with studying a bit?"

Chen Xueru was very dissatisfied.

"You must be tired from walking, right?"

"Come, sit down, I'll go pick a watermelon for you to eat!"

"Fled in panic."

"Xueru, do you really have your eyes on Wan Ping'an?"

"Do you need my help?"

"His career has just started, there aren't any flashy goods around him yet, take him down early, otherwise there will be many women competing with you in the future."

"Let's do this!"

"In a while, let's invite him to drink, get him drunk, and I'll send you two into the bridal chamber!"

Xu Huirong was half-joking and half-serious!

"Who asked for your help?"

Chen Xueru's face turned red on the spot.

"Don't need my help, you'll get him drunk yourself?"

Xu Huirong laughed.

"Annoying, you know that's not what I meant."

Chen Xueru's face turned even redder.

At the same moment.

Sihe Academy.

Jia family!

"Mom, when will Matchmaker Zhang bring the girl?"

Jia Dongxu couldn't wait.

The original plan was to bring the country girl to have a blind date with him the day after his blind date with Su Hong.

But Jia Gen raised an objection, suggesting to postpone it for two days, let Jia Dongxu recover from his injuries, and adjust his state to avoid another failure.

Jia Zhang agreed.

Jia Dongxu didn't agree, but his opposition was invalid.

"Are you in such a hurry to marry a wife?"

"Will you forget your mother after marrying a wife?"

Jia Zhang was a bit unhappy.

Her heart was a bit blocked.

"Mom, I'm not that kind of person."

"I'll marry a wife early, so there will be one more person to serve you."

Jia Dongxu shook his head quickly.

He knew very well that if he dared to nod, he would never be able to marry a wife in this life.

In the Jia family, if Jia Zhang didn't nod, nothing could be done.

"That sounds like human talk!"

"Wait!"

"Matchmaker Zhang will bring the person soon."

Jia Zhang snorted coldly.

Backyard.

Xu Damao finished selling watermelons and prepared to go to the six-acre field to find Wan Ping'an.

He met Jia Dongxu as soon as he arrived at the middle courtyard.

"Jia Dongxu, didn't you say you were going on a blind date?"

"Where's the girl?"

"Why hasn't she come?"

"Did she dump you before you even met, as soon as she heard your reputation?"

Xu Damao gloated.

Jia Dongxu broke his leg and was dumped by his blind date, which had long become the talk of the Sihe Academy!

Even the nearby academies knew about it!

"I dumped Su Hong, I didn't take a fancy to her!"

Jia Dongxu was very annoyed.

Haha!

Xu Damao laughed loudly.

Jia Dongxu's face turned red and his neck thick.

Hahaha!

Another burst of laughter came.

It was He Yuzhu laughing!

"You two dare to mock me?"

"You just wait, my blind date is coming soon, she's a very, very, very beautiful girl, I'll make you jealous to death!"

Jia Dongxu turned and left.

When it came to arguing, he couldn't beat Xu Damao.

When it came to fists, he couldn't beat He Yuzhu before, and with a broken leg, he couldn't beat him even more.

Couldn't argue, couldn't fight, why not leave, wait to be bullied?

Jia Dongxu ran away.

Xu Damao laughed very happily.

Hearing He Yuzhu's laughter, he couldn't laugh anymore, snorted coldly, and walked out.

Outside Beijing.

Qin Village.

Matchmaker Zhang entered the village and found Qin Huairu's house.

Qin Huairu's family had gone to work, participating in the village's collective labor.

"Little Qin, come here!"

Matchmaker Zhang waved.

"What are you here for again?"

Qin Huairu was full of resentment.

Matchmaker Zhang had agreed with her to go to the city for a blind date the next day, and she had already told her parents.

The next morning.

She was all dressed up.

Matchmaker Zhang sent word that the man had something to do, and the blind date was postponed.

Two days in a row.

Some bad words began to spread in the village.

Saying the man didn't take a fancy to Qin Huairu at all, saying the postponement was just a polite way of saying it was canceled, saying Qin Huairu's desire to enter the city was wishful thinking.

"Little Qin, I know you've been wronged."

"I guarantee you, it was really just an accident!"

"I couldn't help it, the man had something to do, had to postpone it. Now, didn't I come to pick you up to go to Beijing for a blind date?"

Matchmaker Zhang was full of smiles.

She was eloquent.

She quickly convinced Qin Huairu to let bygones be bygones and go to the city with her for a blind date.

The two quickly arrived in Beijing.

Headed straight for Red Star Sihe Academy!

When Qin Huairu and Matchmaker Zhang were rushing to the Sihe Academy, a rumbling sound came from behind. Matchmaker Zhang pulled Qin Huairu to the side.

Immediately after.

A behemoth passed by the two.

It was a heavy truck. When it passed by them, the huge body and roaring motor left Qin Huairu stunned.

"Haven't seen it before, right?"

"This is the Rolling Mill's transport fleet."

"Only a big factory like the Rolling Mill can have a motorcade, each vehicle can carry dozens of tons of materials at a time."

Matchmaker Zhang waited for the motorcade to pass, looking at Qin Huairu's shocked expression.

Very satisfied!

"I've heard of the Rolling Mill, I heard the wages are very high?"

Qin Huairu's eyes were full of yearning.

"Must be high!"

"Your blind date, Jia Dongxu, his dad works at the Rolling Mill, he's a level-four machinist, his monthly salary is fifty-one yuan."

"Plus some welfare subsidies, he can get at least fifty-five yuan a month."

"Their family is three people, plus you, it's only four people, averaging twelve or thirteen yuan per person per month."

"If you can marry into the Jia family, just wait to enjoy the blessings!"

Matchmaker Zhang vigorously touted Jia Dongxu.

"Does Jia Dongxu not have a job?"

Qin Huairu frowned slightly.

"You don't need to worry about that."

"In the future, he will definitely inherit his dad's job and enter the Rolling Mill to work."

"If you marry into the Jia family, if you can give birth to a few fat sons for the Jia family, it will be 'mother honored by son', do I even need to talk about your family status?"

When Matchmaker Zhang was touting Jia Dongxu.

The shadow of Jia Zhang appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but feel a chill.

With such a wicked mother-in-law, no matter which girl married into the Jia family, she definitely wouldn't have a good life.

But she was a matchmaker.

A matchmaker without a bottom line.

Only saying good things and not bad things, anyway, matchmaking was a one-off deal.

In the fifties, there were divorce policies, but very few people divorced. In most cases, a person only married once in their life.

No need to consider repeat customers!

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up.

She dreamed of entering the city and living the life of a city person.

The Jia family of three had a monthly income of over fifty, which made her very satisfied. Instead, she was a bit uneasy—could Jia Dongxu take a fancy to her?

After all, Jia Dongxu was a city person, and his family conditions were quite good.

She was just a country bumpkin!

At this time.

Sihe Academy.

The Jia family was also busy.

"Old Jia, sprinkle some water when you sweep the floor, why is there so much dust?"

"Dongxu, wipe the glass cleaner."

"Old Jia..."

"Dongxu..."

The Jia family was doing a big cleaning.

Jia Gen and Jia Dongxu were being ordered around by Jia Zhang.

Every big cleaning of the Jia family was collective labor, but they worked together, with Jia Zhang as the general commander, and Jia Dongxu and Jia Gen as the executors.

The general commander, of course, didn't need to work, just move her mouth.

"Mom, no, I'm exhausted, let's rest for a while!"

Jia Dongxu protested.

His leg hadn't healed yet, and he had to lean on a crutch when walking.

"It's your blind date, not mine."

"You don't have to look if you don't want to, wait until your partner comes, and let her see our house in a mess, see if she can take a fancy to you?"

Jia Zhang's triangular eyes widened.

"Right, can't let her see the house in a mess."

Jia Dongxu was full of motivation on the spot.

Cleaning was to welcome Qin Huairu.

But until now, he only knew a name. What the person looked like, he had only heard the matchmaker describe: a flower in the ten-mile village!

"Mom, why hasn't Matchmaker Zhang brought the person yet?"

After cleaning.

Jia Dongxu was a bit anxious.

"What's the rush?"

"Haste makes waste."

"Don't worry, I warned the matchmaker. If this blind date isn't successful, she must return the money. She definitely doesn't want to return the money."

Jia Zhang snorted coldly.

Thinking of Matchmaker Zhang, she was full of anger.

Matchmaker Zhang wanted a two-yuan introduction fee, she only wanted to give one yuan, Matchmaker Zhang wouldn't agree to anything, saying she wouldn't help introduce if she didn't give it.

"You, how can you talk about returning money to the matchmaker?"

Jia Gen complained to Jia Zhang.

Offending the matchmaker, could she still introduce a high-quality partner for Jia Dongxu?

I'm afraid it would be nothing but ugly and deformed people!

Jia Gen had no confidence in Jia Dongxu's blind date this time.

Jia Zhang was too reckless.

But facing Jia Zhang, he didn't dare to say anything too heavy. Even if he was full of resentment, he only dared to say a few light words.

In the academy, he was famous for being henpecked.

In front of neighbors, Jia Zhang never gave him any face.
