The life of Lao Liu since 1944

Chapter 126 Matchmaking for Zhang Dalong

"My sister-in-law is beautiful, gentle and virtuous. She is a very good woman." Zhang Dalong thought for a while and finally spoke. Although his voice was not loud, every word revealed his admiration and respect for his sister-in-law.

"Boss, you have good taste. No wonder you would rather marry your sister-in-law than marry her."

As soon as he said this, Zhang Dalong clearly felt that the atmosphere around him seemed to become subtle. Mu Chunhua next door blushed, and although she complained about her husband's meddling, her heart was full of concern and curiosity about Zhang Dalong - she was thinking that her image in other people's hearts was so good.

Hou Jie nodded after listening to Zhang Dalong's description. He thought to himself, "This guy is really good. He not only flatters himself, but also flatters his wife. He is quite a character."

Mu Chunhua, who was listening next door, was filled with joy and knew even more that her husband loved and cared about her.

The atmosphere in the whole room became relaxed and cheerful. Hou Jie and Zhang Dalong continued to chat, while Mu Chunhua listened to their conversation quietly next door. Her heart was filled with gratitude and happiness, and at the same time, she was full of beautiful expectations for the future.

"Then how about I find you a wife like your sister-in-law? What do you think?"

Zhang Dalong immediately understood what was going on. It turned out that she was matchmaking for him. He was shocked.

"I have no objection. The boss's introduction must be correct. I believe you. It's just that I'm a little young. Am I too impatient?"

Hou Jie patiently persuaded, "Da Long, you have to know that good men are like ghosts. You have heard of them but never seen them. The same is true for good women. If one family has a daughter, hundreds of families will want her."

"When you come to your senses, you can't even see her shadow. If you meet a good woman, you should make a date with her before anyone notices her. Once people notice her, it will be too late."

Zhang Dalong understood. No wonder the eldest brother got married in a hurry even though he was the same age as him. It turned out that this was the main reason.

He didn't object. Seeing his friends around him getting married one by one, he was also anxious!

He nodded in agreement very happily. "Boss, I understand. You can arrange a time. I want to meet the other party."

Hou Jie nodded and said, "Da Long, you have to know that when a man chooses a wife, he can't just look at the family wealth and beauty. The key is to look at the person. If you choose the right woman, it can prosper for three generations."

"You are lucky, this girl is beautiful and generous. She and your sister-in-law are both good women. They are much better than the daughters of wealthy families. I really don't like them."

Hou Jie reminded him, with a hint of threat, "I am only proposing to you as a matchmaker this time. Whether it succeeds in the future or not, I will not care about your marriage anymore."

Zhang Dalong's heart tightened, and he was also concerned about this blind date. He had been a little bit arrogant these days. Since attending the Chamber of Commerce dinner, girls have called him from time to time, and he was indeed quite tempted. He also knew that his achievement was just to attend a meeting for the boss, but he attracted so many butterflies. If the boss came in person, it would definitely be a different scene.

"But what about the eldest son? He is a very low-key son-in-law. He has a long-term vision and has seen through the situation in a few years. Regardless of whether things succeed or not, he is already in an invincible position. These are what I lack, and I still have a lot to learn. Without the eldest son, I would still be nothing."

"Marriage is a big deal. I believe the boss won't let me down."

Zhang Dalong thought a lot and said, "Boss, I will take this matter to heart."

Hou Jie had an expression that showed he was a teachable kid, but he had other thoughts in his mind.

"Da Long! I won't cheat you. But I'm going to be your son-in-law now, so you have to live a hard life with me! You are so powerful now, but marrying a poor girl at this time may cause criticism."

"You might get beaten when you get home. Poor kid. Just bear with it for a few years!"

Hou Jie started to speak beautifully again, "Da Long, you have to know that a good wife brings less trouble to her husband. A good wife helps me to reach my ambitions. This is my evaluation of your sister-in-law."

Mu Chunhua, who lived next door, was so happy to hear her husband's evaluation of her that she smiled like a flower.

Zhang Dalong's pupils shrank. The boss actually spoke so highly of his sister-in-law.

He made up his mind. Although the eldest brother said that the girl was very beautiful and virtuous, he still wanted to wait and see. He had originally planned to wait for two years. Since the eldest brother said that a good girl would not wait, he would marry the girl as long as she did not have too many complaints about him.

No matter how much his family objects, he has to get married this year.

Zhang Dalong heard what the boss said, and he immediately wanted to meet him. Of course, he was nervous, firstly because he was nervous, and secondly because the boss was a little unreliable in life.

I hope that this time, Boss, for the sake of being brothers, he won't let me down. "Boss, can I meet this girl now?"

Hou Jie was surprised and asked, "Are you in such a hurry?"

Zhang Dalong nodded vigorously, looking impatient. We would meet each other anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later.

Seeing this, Hou Jie smiled and shouted to the neighbor next door, "Wife, Dalong wants to meet the girl, please arrange it."

Mu Chunhua happily answered loudly, "Wait a moment, I'll find someone to pick her up."

Hou Jie shook his head helplessly and said to Zhang Dalong, "Well, your sister-in-law is more anxious than you."

Mu Chunhua went out to look for someone, and Hou Jie continued to argue with Zhang Dalong, and raised his thumb again. "Dalong, believe what I say, I'm reliable."

Zhang Dalong was suddenly panicked when he heard the boss say this and saw the boss's iconic gesture. He couldn't help but sigh, "It's over. Every time the boss says this, he is probably trying to trick me. But this time it's a marriage, and my sister-in-law is involved, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

He comforted himself in his heart and encouraged himself at the same time. He thought, let's try the blind date first, if he is not satisfied, he will just reject it directly. After all, this is a big deal of marriage, and he can't compromise easily.

However, he couldn't help but complain to Hou Jie in his heart: "Boss, don't blame me! You have caused psychological trauma to my brothers."

He felt that he had been cheated by Hou Jie many times, and each time he suffered a lot. Although this was a major marriage event, he was still a little worried that he would be cheated by Hou Jie again.

While waiting, Zhang Dalong's attention slowly shifted to the girl he was going to have a blind date with.

A barely perceptible blush appeared on his cheeks, and he looked a little unnatural, trying to stay calm and composed. He was full of unknowns and curiosity about the blind date he was about to meet. No matter how good the boss said, as long as he hadn't met the person in person, he would always feel a little uneasy, which made him both excited and uneasy.

"Boss, is that girl really as good as you say?"

Hou Jie shrugged slightly and spread his hands, as if telling Zhang Dalong that although he was not clear about the specific situation, he firmly believed in his wife's vision and judgment.

"I don't know the details. Anyway, I haven't met her." Hou Jie's tone revealed a kind of awe and caution towards the unknown. "She is your sister-in-law's best friend. The two get along very well, like sisters. Your sister-in-law is a smart person. The person she recommends will definitely not be bad."

Hou Jie's words made Zhang Dalong's face become complicated. He muttered to himself, if it was really the boss who introduced him, then he would be a little worried. Fortunately, it was his sister-in-law who introduced him. Zhang Dalong felt a little relieved. At least to some extent, he believed in his sister-in-law's judgment and vision.

Hou Jie saw that Zhang Dalong's face was obviously as gloomy as ink, and he couldn't help but get anxious. He asked in a gruff voice: "What's the matter? Do you mean you don't trust me?"

Zhang Dalong glanced at him coldly and responded sarcastically, "Boss, if you want to talk about anything else, I will believe you without hesitation. But if you want to talk about your lifestyle, please forgive me for being timid and not trusting you easily. Look at you, you married into a family at the age of fifteen, and you still have a fiancée outside. With someone like you, humph, I have zero trust in you!"

Hou Jie was obviously irritated by Zhang Dalong's attitude. He raised his voice by several decibels and shouted in a threatening voice, "Great! Zhang Dalong, you have become more and more capable recently! You are getting more and more arrogant now! How dare you look down on me? What's your attitude?"

Zhang Dalong was startled by Hou Jie's sudden outburst, but he couldn't control his emotions, so he had to bite the bullet and try to refute with words:

"Boss, I'm telling the truth. Your current behavior is indeed a bit excessive. You actually have a mistress outside. I feel ashamed for you. If you don't die, I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will be sad if she finds out. We also specifically warned the brothers, so my sister-in-law should have known about it a long time ago!"
