Chapter 1821: Coming Through Connections

~8 min read 1,499 words

Oh my!

Aunt Zhang Hong deeply lamented the missed opportunity.

"What a great chance this is, and I heard you all know each other's roots..."

But the girl beside her just lowered her head to look at her phone, not continuing the conversation. Aunt Zhang Hong noticed that throughout the venue, apart from the noise of some vibrating videos, everyone else was also bowing their heads and playing with their phones.

She didn't say much more, just watched silently.

Mainly, since she was already here, she had to wait until she ate the buffet.

But she didn't just sit idly; she took out her notebook from her bag and began writing furiously again.

What was she writing?

The young man in the mountain security team, who said he wouldn't sell the holiday gifts he received but wanted to send them home because his younger sister loved them so much, urging him day and night.

He also worried that his sister had been dating someone, the family didn't agree, and she had broken things and gone on a hunger strike...

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang Hong knew this family definitely didn't favor boys over girls, or at least wasn't the type to be overly stubborn.

But whether the girl had a good or bad temper, if a sensible family raised their child, the general character shouldn't be too bad, right?

No, she still had to inquire more carefully.

Sometimes, if the elders above are muddled, it's worse than having some character flaws.

Because if there really is some problem, one can prescribe the right medicine. But if the person is muddled, it's truly impossible to untangle, and you never know when they'll cause trouble.

And there was the new copywriter, She Min.

The young girl spoke in a soft, thin voice, and when she went to buy fermented bean curd to send home, she had to repeat how many bottles she wanted two or three times before anyone could hear clearly.

Although she had signed up this time, she had secretly told her she wasn't in a hurry to find a partner—sigh, this little girl, she probably thought the boss's family was pushing hard, so she was just giving face and filling the numbers.

She would have to talk to her when she got back.

With that kind of personality, she wouldn't find a partner even if she waited another 10 years! Since she wasn't determined to live alone, they should make plans early, right?

Start dating a few more people when you're young; whether it works out or not, the experience is there.

The more you see, the less you'll suffer later.

This had to be noted down.

It was just such a shy and timid personality...

Aunt Zhang Hong pondered that if nobody took the initiative, the little girl would probably really just be filling the numbers.

After all, they were holding a matchmaking event, not playing matchmaker, and pairing this personality with that personality... there was no such thing.

When it comes to finding a partner, if you catch each other's eye, anything works; if you don't, nothing works.

Aunt Zhang Hong earnestly recorded the situation of the little girl's family.

She also remembered the collective physical examination organized by the Song family earlier; that exam was very expensive. It was a very comprehensive package.

This way, any family medical history or infectious diseases, they didn't need to ask; they knew it all by heart.

As for why she knew—since they had signed up for the matchmaking event, those with sincerity would at least show her photos of these key items, right?

In short, Aunt Zhang Hong now held the red thread firmly, her expression becoming more focused and serious.

But she didn't notice that her current image made her look completely out of place in the entire venue.

It had been mentioned before that Aunt Zhang Hong had dressed up solemnly today.

After the family's conditions became comfortable, even in the midst of her busy schedule, she still got a perm and dyed her hair a chestnut brown.

But because this consumption was completed in the county town, the hair wasn't managed to be very shiny; she just roughly used styling foam to stiffly clump a few curls and called it managed.

She was wearing a modified cheongsam dress that cost over a hundred yuan bought from Dodo, in black and red, and on her...

In short, if it wasn't 100% rustic, it was 99%.

She was wearing a clinking large gold bracelet on her hand, but those hands were clearly those of someone who had done rough work for years.

Not to mention the small high heels with short stockings on her feet.

With this outfit, anyone could tell at a glance that she definitely wasn't a work unit employee.

Therefore, when she took out her notebook and slowly wrote something amidst the crowd scrolling on their phones, the few girls sitting around asked each other with their eyes, and were actually attracted to her.

Everyone was scrolling through their phone pages absent-mindedly, but their ears were pricked up, and their eyes were secretly sizing her up.

And the girl closest to her finally stopped being silent.

This time, she took the initiative to ask:

"Auntie, what are you recording?"

She added jokingly: "Don't tell me the work unit sent you here to record all our performances?"

Aunt Zhang Hong stopped her pen and laughed: "I'm not from a work unit; I'm from a village below. Our village is also holding a matchmaking event, and our secretary was afraid I lacked experience and wouldn't prepare well, so she specifically pulled strings to have me come and learn some experience."

This made everyone laugh.

Just a matchmaking event; if they hadn't been specifically named, they really wouldn't have wanted to come. And here someone was actually 【coming through connections.】

However, the content of these words sparked everyone's gossip heart.

As for why they were so interested despite resisting matchmaking?

Oh my, they wouldn't go to a village matchmaking event! Eating melon and being the subject of the melon are two different things.

The few girls sitting around had their eyes light up:

"Your village is also holding a matchmaking event? Are there many single young people in the village? Auntie, I've participated several times, if there's anything you want to know, ask me."

Oh my, Aunt Zhang Hong was just waiting for this sentence!

She sat up straight: "Our village has a large farm, Yunqiao Village, do you know it? The one where the tofu and vegetables are especially delicious. You must go and play when you have time!"

"It's just that it's always raining, there isn't as much work on the mountain, and there are quite a few single employees, so we thought about organizing an event so everyone could solve their life's big event."

Yunqiao Village?

Those who surf the internet basically have all seen various recommendations and promotions from tourists who have been there on the local Douyin.

Everyone got excited; if it weren't for Aunt Zhang Hong not being able to stop talking about matchmaking, some would have wanted to learn the ropes on the spot to see what the village was actually like!

Some girls blinked: "I've been there, the flowers were so beautiful, it was very photogenic at the time. The vegetables were indeed delicious; my mom has been talking about it for a long time and always wants to go again."

"Then come!" Aunt Zhang Hong lacked confidence as a matchmaking event organizer, but she was very generous when it came to soliciting business for her own home and village:

"It's raining now, there are few people in the village, and there are plenty of vegetables in the fields, you can pick whatever you want."

After finishing the advertisement, she looked at the girl beside her: "Miss, you said you've participated several times, let me ask, what is the usual schedule arrangement here?"

The girl didn't answer, just asked curiously: "Auntie, I saw you recording a lot just now, is that all data on the people participating in the matchmaking event?"

She had vaguely seen a name, followed by a string of data that could fill a whole page, but she was too embarrassed to look closely, so she only saw the height, weight, salary, and the like at the very front.

Aunt Zhang Hong said proudly: "Yes, the village takes it very seriously, and everyone is honest; after signing up, they gave me all their information."

Looking at this group of youthful, beautiful, and trendy girls, she suddenly laughed again:

"Do you want to see? Come, come, let me tell you..."

Although girls working in city units, as long as their family's thinking wasn't problematic, wouldn't consider looking for a partner in the countryside.

But, since they were already here, she would listen to what kind of evaluations and requirements girls had for men nowadays! ===== CHAPTER 1822 =====
