Chapter 631: Until Wu Lan Acts as a Matchmaker [Illustration]

Sun Ziqiang had grown up, and this was the first time he had opened his mind! At this moment, being looked at by Song Tan, his cheeks flushed red.

Looking at Tian Tian again, she had gone with Tian Ye to re-clean the houttuynia and hadn't seen the two people's eyes, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then this sigh was breathed too early!

Only hearing Song Tan ask in a low voice:

"How about it? Do you need my mom to play matchmaker and pull a thread for you? Or do you want free love?"

Sun Ziqiang's face, at this moment, had already turned red to the ear roots!

He looked left and right in a panic, and then hummed and hawed: "No... no... it's not that kind of thing!"

Not that kind of thing?!

Song Tan looked at him with a smile that wasn't a smile:

"Brother Brother Xiao Sun, then you have to think clearly; for a girl as filial, honest, and responsible as Tian Tian, if you don't go straight to the theme, I'm afraid she won't talk about love at all until her family's debt is paid off!"

"She's not like you, who eats enough and the whole family is not hungry—according to their family's debt and expenses, days like this hot summer where you need to work in the fields will have to pass for at least two or three years!"

Song Tan pretended not to see Sun Ziqiang's distressed and slightly disappointed look, and continued: "Look, how long has it been since she started working? Her skin has been tanned into that state, and she has become haggard..."

Isn't that so?

Sun Ziqiang could see it himself; otherwise, he wouldn't have specially left his own tea eggs, which he used to cushion his stomach, for them today.

Just like Song Tan said, Tian Tian is honest and responsible; she took a salary of 200, and her brother came to tutor for free, so she worked until noon every day before she was willing to stop.

The aunts who packed the braising spice bags all went home after nine o'clock, but she meticulously cleaned up until past ten o'clock. She also came early and left late in the afternoon...

Before he could ease his distressed emotions, he heard Song Tan sigh again:

"You say, Tian Tian is smart, honest, and hardworking. How many good girls like her can you find now? That Zhou Tianyu is purely brain-damaged for not looking down on her."

Right, right, right! Isn't that it! Sun Ziqiang thought: He saw it when eating the Akebia quinata on the mountain; these two were not on the same path.

"And my aunt too—looking at what family? Just based on Tian Tian's character, if a young person works hard for two years, they will definitely be able to live a good life!"

She said this in an old-fashioned way, but Sun Ziqiang didn't notice it at all; he just kept nodding in his heart:

Right, right, right, too right!

Sun Ziqiang was also poor—the biased parents at home, he didn't suffer less bitterness and grievances. Don't look at him being young now; in fact, he understands quite a bit!

He even knew that Song Tan was right.

With Tian Tian's personality of not wanting to drag others down, if he wanted to pursue her, there was no possibility of Tian Tian agreeing within two years!

But... but every day when working, watching her silently working by the pond, sweating profusely, yet not willing to be lazy at all...

Unknowingly, his eyes couldn't move away.

The girl he liked was working so hard every day, and Sun Ziqiang felt uncomfortable in his heart. He even calculated his savings again—

The excavator was second-hand, fortunately, the loan wasn't much, two or three thousand yuan a month, and it could be paid off in two years.

He still had savings of more than thirty thousand.

It was just that working here at Song Tan's could last for a long time; although the fee wasn't high, 1500 a day, after deducting various maintenance and oil costs, he could still have four or five thousand left.

At this moment, looking at Song Tan's clear eyes, he couldn't help but waver.

But... what if it doesn't work out? What if Tian Tian just doesn't like someone like him?

If that's the case, wouldn't it be awkward to get along in the future?

His work here couldn't be lost, and Tian Tian's work couldn't be lost even more. Thinking like this, it was really inappropriate to bring it up now.

But if he didn't say it, Tian Tian would have to work hard again, and she would have to be urged by her family about her life's big events, and in turn, she would have to persuade her family not to think too much... wouldn't life be even more anxious?

He didn't have any other meaning; he just wanted to tell Tian Tian:

"Don't be afraid if you're tired; there's still someone supporting you, and you can rest."

His thoughts were messy, and before he could make up his mind, he heard Tian Tian greeting from over there:

"Song Tan, I've dried the houttuynia; Tian Ye and I are going back first. He will come over at three o'clock in the afternoon to turn it over and dry it again, so you don't have to worry about it."

Sun Ziqiang was stunned again—

She looks so good when she smiles!

Her skin is black, much darker than when he saw her a while ago, and she is thinner, making her pair of eyes look exceptionally bright. The dimples on her cheeks are rippling, couldn't be cuter! It's just that her face is a bit peeling, and her lips are dry...

Is it too hard?

It must be!

When her motorcycle sounded, Sun Ziqiang's eyes finally followed and retracted, and he said solemnly to Song Tan:

"Then... can I trouble Aunt Until Wu Lan to help me mention it to Tian Tian's family?"

Can playing matchmaker be called trouble?

Especially when the young person is the kind that the family appreciates exceptionally.

Until Wu Lan was smiling from ear to ear when she heard this:

"Brother Brother Xiao Sun, don't worry! Your aunt will go out! It will definitely work!"

Having gotten along for so long, eating at the same dining table, plus between villages, even if there are nine turns and eighteen bends, one can find a relative/acquaintance relationship, so Until Wu Lan knows Sun Ziqiang quite well.

It's just...

"Brother Brother Xiao Sun, you are three years younger than Tian Tian! I can't guarantee whether this girl likes younger ones. But don't worry, aunt will definitely try her best!"

On the side, she praised his good eye and high efficiency: "It's still our Brother Brother Xiao Sun who has a good eye; otherwise, in another two months, I would have planned to introduce her to my nephew."

Sun Ziqiang, who hadn't thought of the age difference at all:...

He instantly became anxious: "Aunt, tell her family, I can make the decisions about my marriage. And we won't be in a hurry to get married even if we talk; at least two years! I will either save enough for a down payment or save enough to build a house in the village, it all depends on her thoughts—I definitely won't let Tian Tian suffer any grievances!"

Until Wu Lan opened her mouth, just wanted to say something, and saw Sun Ziqiang, to show credibility, even pulling the engineering team's person in charge who had just arrived and said:

"If you don't believe me, ask Brother Xu; I've already discussed it with him. When the work here is finished, I'll go to the construction site with him; I'll earn more then! One or two thousand is possible; I can earn enough for the down payment and bride price!"

He was so anxious that Until Wu Lan couldn't say some things.

But she had to say it—

"Brother Brother Xiao Sun, you think quite far. I just want to remind you that even if you want to get married, you can't; you forgot you're not even 22 this year."

Sun Ziqiang:...

He instantly flushed red again.

Finally, he hummed and hawed, really didn't know what to say, and had to add another sentence:

"Aunt, I know Tian Tian is in charge now; you tell her... even if we talk and get married, it's only right and proper for her to take care of the family, don't have any burden." ===== CHAPTER 632 =====
