Li Ji and his grandmother sat next to each other, talking and laughing, reminiscing about the past.

Li Wansan sat on the stool on the ground and interjected from time to time. Hou was busy cooking. After the meal, we talked until late before going to bed. But grandma never said anything about persuasion.

Because of the persuasion, when I went to bed at night, my grandmother slept very unsteadily, half-awake and half-asleep.

At dawn, Li Ji was still the same, packed up his belongings, and was about to leave. Grandma also got up early and followed Li Ji out of the hospital.

Li Ji found that his grandmother followed him out of the courtyard gate, and hurriedly asked, "Grandma, where are you going?"

Grandma said calmly: "Grandma wants to ask where you are going? Early in the morning, you are leaving, what is the important matter?"

Grandma actually knows Li Ji's current situation and situation. Yesterday, Hou went to pick her up at home, and she explained clearly at home. She asked this truth, in order to understand exactly what Li Ji really thought in his heart, so that she could better contact and talk to him.

Li Jidao: "I made a living and went to the market to write essays. Insisting on going out of the stall every day, although it is not very prosperous, but seeking love and tending to be stable, it is also a career of peace of mind. ”

Grandma said calmly: "It's a good thing to have something you like, and it's important to insist, it's really commendable, and it deserves support, but it's just ......"

Li Jidao: Grandma is still sensible, has a unique vision, and although she is old, her thoughts are also far-sighted. But, may I ask grandma, what is it?"

Grandma didn't move, and said word by word: "Yesterday you told grandma that you are twenty-three this year, and if you keep doing this, can you help you start a family?"

Li Ji sighed: "Not right now. As things stand, it's hard to say what the next few years will look like. ”

Grandma said again: "Brother, you really should start a family at such an age." However, we must not be discouraged by the difficulties we are currently encountering. You can't ignore one or the other, and miss the years. You can put aside the things in front of you, focus on the major events in your life, and don't be dragged down by things. ”

When grandma said this, she finally helped Li Ji untie the knot in his heart and let him breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Ji said: "What grandma said is insightful, I will seriously consider it." ”

Grandma struck while the iron was hot, and asked again, "Is there a matchmaker recently?"

Li Ji was surprised: "But my parents revealed everything to my grandmother?"

Grandma covered up and said: "There, doesn't grandma care about you, your parents have never told grandma about you." ”

Li Ji had no choice but to say: "This is the best." A few days ago, there was indeed a matchmaker. The media's acquaintance with my father was in the business, and he introduced the daughter of the old neighbor to me. I didn't think the time was ripe, I didn't go to meet people, and in the end it didn't happen. ”

Grandma said: "Since this is the case, it means that my brother has a lot of things to think about, so don't mention it again in the past." If you encounter this in the future, remember to think carefully and not act hastily. ”

After grandma finished speaking, without waiting for Li Ji to speak, grandma added: "Grandma talks a lot, and I don't know if what she said is right, you probably don't like to listen to it, but grandma does this completely for your good." ”

Grandma's words, Li Ji said that his heart was very down-to-earth, and he naturally understood. With a resolute look in his eyes, he said seriously: "What Grandma said is reasonable, and Jicheng remembers it all in my heart." ”

When grandma saw this scene and heard his words, she couldn't help but smile slightly, and she was already sure in her heart.

Li Ji left home and went to the market, and his grandmother returned home and told her daughter and son-in-law what she had said to Li Ji. The three of them discussed it and agreed not to talk about managing things on the surface, no matter if Li Ji went out to do things, nor did he talk about marriage, they still worked hard to get along behind the scenes, and asked acquaintances to talk about matchmaking.

Coincidentally, the neighbors who are on the same wall as Li Wansan's family are already an old couple who are not confused. There are two pockmarks on the mother-in-law's face, surnamed Zhang, and outsiders have a nickname, named Zhang Mapo.

Mrs. Zhang usually takes care of housework at home and does housework. If you have nothing to do, you can go in and out, and watch the news on the street. Left and right, there is nothing in the parents that she doesn't know. The old man rarely shows his head on weekdays, and only does odd jobs in the city to make a living. The couple had a son, who was doing a small business in the city and had started a family.

This mapo also saw Li Ji and his grandmother talking outside the courtyard gate before, so he came to talk to his grandmother in his spare time. Let's talk about homely things, what's new in the city.

But grandma has been thinking about Li Ji's affairs, and the words are long, so she asked about it. Coincidentally, a distant relative of this Mapo's hometown, who has a daughter in the family, has reached the age of talking about marriage, and wants to come to the city, so he asks her to ask a family in the city.

Zhang Mapo actually also had an interest in Li Wansan's Li Ji, but she didn't show up when she saw Li Wansan's family, and Li Ji didn't make a noise when he went out early and returned late. He didn't mention it, and it was inconvenient for her to ask.

caught up with grandma and asked, Zhang Mapo told them to listen to 1510. You have the intention of the two families, I have the heart, hit it off, discuss and arrange for the two families to meet, and if both parties are interested, you can decide on this family business.

Zhang Mapo asked someone to send a message to distant relatives, and gave the details of the family together. Here, Li Wansan's family of two still instructed his grandmother to come forward and let his grandmother move Li Ji.

Grandma happily agreed, and when Li Ji came back from outside, she would find an opportunity to tell him alone. After some painstaking persuasion from his grandmother, Li Ji was also deeply touched in his heart.

I don't know if my grandmother is worried too much, or what, after talking, I slept all night, and I was sick. With a pale face and a chapped mouth, Li Wansan and his family didn't have the heart to take care of Li Ji's thoughts, so they treated their grandmother first.

Li Jiyou was deeply stimulated by this, his grandmother was so old, and she was still worried about other people's affairs, and she was not lightly ill, so she made up her mind to meet.

In the end, I discussed with Zhang Mapo and decided to meet at her house. Because they are neighbors, they are so close, and it is also to witness the true face, Li Ji and his family all went over. The woman is personally accompanied by her parents. Zhang Mapo's family left her alone at home, and she presided over it herself.

On the day of the meeting, Li Wansan specially prepared tea and melons and fruits, and also treated the woman's family affectionately. Parents just look at each other, drink some tea, and chat. Seeing the opportunity, Zhang Mapo specially arranged for Li Ji and the woman to talk alone in the hall. Li Ji saw that this woman was tall and big, with a round face and a curled nose, and slender and curved eyebrows, but her eyes often flickered and fluctuated. I asked again for my name and age. It turned out that this woman's family name was Qiu, with a single name Ren and a milk name Renai, and she just turned 19 years old this year.

The woman saw that Li Ji's eyebrows were thick and broad, his cheeks were thick and his lips were sharp, and he had a scholarly face, but he was also clean and tidy, and his appearance was dignified. I didn't say much, but I couldn't get it in my heart.

The two didn't talk much about each other, just some innocuous topics, asked about some common things, and then dispersed.

Each returns to normal, fate is not an ordinary thing, and it is not a curtain of the dynasty, and the fate of one day is also fate. With the efforts of Zhang Mapo and the mediation of her parents, this marriage was finally completed.
