Chapter 716

If a man did all the dishwashing, laundry, and cooking,

then what would he need a wife for?

Cao Weiguo was convinced!

He became a master with peace of mind.

After eating and drinking, he just fattened up.

It was wonderful!

He Yushui entered the room and put down her knitting things.

She rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen to help.

Song Yulan asked: "Yushui, didn't you comfort your brother?"

He Yushui pouted: "He doesn't need my comfort, he's very happy right now."

Song Yulan asked in surprise: "Happy? He lost five yuan and can still be happy?"

He Yushui sneered: "If you don't believe me, you can go see, he's giggling in his room."

Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Shazhu made a contribution this time, saving Qin Huairu's precious son, how could he not be happy?"

Song Yulan shook her head: "I don't understand! Yushui, what exactly is your brother after?"

He Yushui snorted: "Hmph! What is he after? He's after Qin Huairu! He's long been obsessed with Qin Huairu!"

She used to have a good impression of Qin Huairu.

Thinking Qin Huairu was kind, thrifty, and filial.

But now she only felt disgust for Qin Huairu!

If it weren't for Qin Huairu!

Her brother wouldn't have become like this!

Seeing He Yushui's face getting uglier.

Song Yulan stopped mentioning Shazhu and Qin Huairu.

She hurriedly changed the subject.

She asked about He Yushui's work.

As long as they didn't talk about Shazhu and Qin Huairu.

He Yushui's face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny.

Front Courtyard

The most famous matchmaker in this area, Wang, walked into the Yan family home.

She came this time to play matchmaker for Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li had divorced.

Yan Fugui talked big, but how could he watch his son remain a bachelor.

He had no choice but to swallow his pride, carry two palm-sized fish, and find Matchmaker Wang.

"Old Yan!"

"The woman's brother-in-law is Director Ma of the Zhengyang Gate Grain Station!"

"If this marriage succeeds, your family's life will be wonderful."

Hearing Matchmaker Wang's words, the eyes of the Yan family lit up.

Grain Station Director!

Just this title carried enough weight!

What do ordinary people care about most in these times?

What they care about most is not going hungry!

What does a grain station director do?

They are in charge of grain!

In the eyes of the common people, it's the fattest job possible!

Yu Li, who couldn't lay eggs, left!

Marrying the sister-in-law of a grain station director!

Isn't that like a mouse falling into a rice jar—a blessing in disguise!

Yan Fugui nodded happily: "Good! Good! This marriage is good!"

Compared to Yan Fugui, a teacher who spent all day at school.

Third Aunt, who often went to the street to buy vegetables, was well-informed.

She had heard of Director Ma of the Zhengyang Gate Grain Station and his cousin.

The cousin of the grain store director's wife was notoriously fat!

Third Aunt said: "Matchmaker Wang, I heard that the cousin of Director Ma's wife is a bit fat, which is why she hasn't found a suitable husband."

This made Matchmaker Wang smile awkwardly and poured a bucket of cold water on Yan Jiecheng.

The smile on Yan Fugui's face also disappeared, and he frowned as he sat in his chair.

You really can't trust a matchmaker's mouth!

They only pick the good things to say!

Yan Fugui said unhappily:

"Matchmaker Wang! What's going on here?"

"Marriage is not a child's play!"

"You can't cheat my son!"

Matchmaker Wang smiled sheepishly: "Old Yan, don't be anxious! I haven't finished yet!"

"The cousin of Director Ma's wife is fat, yes."

"But in these times, being fat is a blessing!"

"It's precisely because she's fat that it proves she has good fortune!"

"Marrying a wife is for living a life, you can't just look at her face."

"The previous one, Yu Li, was pretty, but she had no fortune."

"Look at how she made your family restless."

"But the cousin of Director Ma's wife is a person with fortune."

"Think about how many people can't even get enough to eat in these times."

"Yet she can eat until she's white and plump."

"I don't know how many people would envy such fortune."

"If such a fortunate person enters your home,"

"your family's life will be so prosperous it'll burn the house down."

"Will the whole family have to worry about firewood, rice, oil, and salt?"

"You'll be able to eat white flour buns until you can't walk."

"And if Jiecheng becomes related to Director Ma,"

"with the care of Director Ma as a relative,"

"he will definitely have a smooth sailing in the future."

"Maybe he can even become a cadre or a leader."

"..."

Matchmaker Wang was truly eloquent.

With one mouth, she had the Yan family completely bewildered.

Even Yan Jiecheng was greatly moved.

It's not like he hadn't slept with pretty women before.

But he had never been an official.

Don't laugh at Liu Haizhong for being obsessed with being an official.

How many people in this world don't want to be an official?

It's just that they want to be an official but don't have the opportunity.

If there's an opportunity to be an official, who wouldn't want to?

After Matchmaker Wang's clever mouth, both Yan Fugui and his son were moved. ===== CHAPTER 718 =====
