This song makes Ding Fengjun feel comfortable, as if this song was written for him, the female singer sings very well, with a beautiful voice and great feelings, Ding Fengjun doesn't understand songs, as long as he listens to it, there is no need to turn it off, just when this song is nearing the end, Ding Fengjun suddenly felt a little pain in his stomach, he didn't have time to turn off the radio, got up from the kiln and ran to the toilet.

The radio anchor's voice came from the radio, and he said in a very magnetic voice: "This song expresses the lyricist's inner thoughts about a person and can't touch the entanglement of this person, this is the love to the depths of the heart, just like the beginning of the song sang, missing is the tears that burst the embankment, yes, loving someone is not this feeling." This song is written and sung by the freshman singer Miss Ma Shiyu herself, I have to say that Ma Shiyu is really a singer with both talent and beauty, but I don't know who this person who makes her miss will be, and who is so lucky to be missed by her, of course, for this matter, we still don't want to discuss too much, after all, this is Miss Ma Shiyu's private life, okay, let's push another song for everyone, please enjoy. β
When Ding Fengjun came back, there was another unknown song playing on the radio, this song was much more cheerful than the previous one, these two songs did not belong to the same genre at all, Ding Fengjun naturally was not in the mood to listen to it anymore, he turned off the radio and hurriedly went back to sleep in the cave.
When he returned home, as Ding Fengjun expected, the people in the family had already started to plan for his marriage. Chen Binglian gave birth to a girl, the girl looks good, and she is pink, and it is precisely because Chen Binglian gave birth to a girl that her arrogance has been somewhat restrained, and he took the initiative to hand over the financial power to Wang Yuzhen, and has asked to divide the family, there are rules in the family, who will pay back the money borrowed by the daughter-in-law who marries, and the money in the family before was in Chen Binglian's hands, Chen Binglian had already secretly used the money to pay off the account. The money she handed over to Wang Yuzhen was very small, Ding Fenghai was treated very well in the army, and his monthly salary could catch up with Ding Fengjun's savings for half a year, which was also a reason why Chen Binglian wanted to split up.
However, Chen Binglian and Ding Fengjun have different attitudes and concepts, women living in this era are most afraid of giving birth to a girl, once they give birth to a girl, they feel that their status is low, Chen Binglian is also a woman, she is no exception, this is not her in order to please her parents-in-law, she took the initiative to ask Ying to be a matchmaker for Ding Fengjun.
Ding Fengjun has always been disgusted with Chen Binglian, he is reluctant to let Chen Binglian be his matchmaker, but under the mixture of Ding Shide and Wang Yuzhen, he decided to meet this girl, the custom at that time is that the girl was taken to the market by her family, and the boy looked at the girl from a distanceγ
As soon as Ding Fengjun heard about this arrangement, he understood the woman's intentions, and he was very disgusted with this arrangement, but he had already promised Gu the matchmaker and promised other people's things, and Ding Fengjun would always keep his promise.
When Ding Fengjun came to the woman's house to see the other party's parents, Ding Fengjun's first reaction was to run away, because he felt that they had a lot of similarities with Chen Binglian just from the appearance of these two people, with sharp beaks and monkey gills, they were not good at first glance, but the other party's parents seemed to be very satisfied with Ding Fengjun, but after all, they were the woman's parents, and they always had to be reserved.
After everyone entered the house and sat down, the woman's mother started talking to the matchmaker, and it seemed that the conversation between the two of them was actually for Ding Fengjun.
"Eldest sister, my daughter is pampered at home, she can't be beaten or scolded, and she can't be wronged when she comes to your side. β
The matchmaker had a lot of words, and her brain turned quickly, she smiled and said: "Then it goes without saying, the old sister-in-law is also a sincere person, how can she treat our daughter badly." β
The woman's mother looked worried, and said lightly: "I don't know what life is like over there, will the child suffer when he arrives at his house?"
The matchmaker smiled and said: "Let's be the right person, besides, this young man is capable and a good person, are you afraid that you won't have a good life in the future?"
The woman's mother said: "My daughter has never done any work at home, and she can't even cook, so I'm afraid that her mother-in-law will have to worry about it a lot." β
Originally, these words were all said to Ding Fengjun, and it stands to reason that Ding Fengjun should rush to answer, but Ding Fengjun really didn't have a good impression of this family, and he didn't bother to speak. The first few sentences of the matchmaker blocked it, and if she blocked it for her like this, I'm afraid the woman's side should be dissatisfied.
The matchmaker hurriedly pestled Ding Fengjun with his arm, Ding Fengjun looked at the matchmaker in confusion, the matchmaker glanced at Ding Fengjun, Ding Fengjun immediately understood what the matchmaker meant, but he began to pretend to be crazy and stupid, pretending not to understand the meaning of the matchmaker. Now the matchmaker is a little anxious, his eyes are about to burst, and Ding Fengjun really doesn't want to torture the matchmaker anymore, so he said directly.
"People learn and know, where there is born to know, since you can't learn, then learn. β
This sentence made the matchmaker and the woman's mother dumbfounded, the woman's mother said that just to make Ding Fengjun make a statement and prove his determination to marry her daughter, besides, whose daughter's daughter still doesn't know how to fry a dish and cook something, this is good, Ding Fengjun's words destroyed this seemingly festive marriage at once.
The matchmaker also knew that even if she had the heart to turn the tide, she couldn't change the woman's attitude, she smiled awkwardly and said: "What's that, sister-in-law, we've been here long enough, I think we should go back." β
The woman's parents exchanged a few polite words with the matchmaker, and did not turn around and go home until they sent the matchmaker and Ding Fengjun out of the house.
Ding Fengjun's approach can make the matchmaker very popular, and the matchmaker kept counting Ding Fengjun on the road, but Ding Fengjun was in a hurry, and Ding Fengjun came directly and said: "It's not me who asked you to come to the matchmaker, you have the ability to talk about Chen Binglian!"
When such a sentence was said, it directly ran away from the matchmaker's popularity.
When he returned home, Ding Fengjun was beaten by Wang Yuzhen again, but Chen Binglian didn't know why she was a peacemaker in the middle, and said that this can't be done, let's look for it again, we can always meet the right one.
After Ding Shide heard about Ding Fengjun's deeds, he smiled and said: "Fengjun, you really deserve to be a person who has studied high school, this sentence is known by learning, how can there be a sentence that you are born to know, that is, you can say it." β
Ding Fengjun scratched his head embarrassedly and replied, "Are you praising me or hurting me." β
After saying that, the father and son couldn't help but be happy.
Ding Fengjun's sentence is not born to know, it is all learned and known, and it is regarded as a well-known thing in Dingzhuang, and it has become a household name, until decades later, when Ding Fengjun is mentioned, people still can't help but talk about it.
The first blind date was unsuccessful, which did not discourage the family. Within a few days, another blind date followed. This time, the matchmaker was no longer the matchmaker Chen Binglian was looking for, but a grandmother in Ding Fengjun's own yard, the other party was a girl from a village not far from Dingzhuang, the grandmother said, the family is very simple, and the children she teaches are also very sensible, she hopes that the two of them can become parents, and Ding Fengjun should undertake this blind date arrangement.
This blind date is the same as everyone else in the village, the other party will take the girl to the market, and then Ding Fengjun will secretly look at her, and if he thinks it is appropriate, the matchmaker will go to propose, the lively market is crowded with people, everyone walks side by side in the market, when the matchmaker points to a girl not far away for Ding Fengjun to see, Ding Fengjun can't help but be a little sluggish.
This girl also has the same long fringed hair as Ma Shiyu, wearing a floral dress, she is okay, but slightly shorter than Ma Shiyu, when the girl turned around, Ding Fengjun looked at her face carefully, this little face is also quiet, her eyes are round, but it is smaller than Ma Shiyu's, and her skin seems to be slightly darker yellow than Ma Shiyu's from a distance, but overall it is okay.
The matchmaker asked Ding Fengjun's opinion, and Ding Fengjun nodded and said, "It's her." β
The matchmaker covered her mouth and smiled, but she still couldn't hide the joy in her heart, you know, for the matchmaker, this is a matter of merit, and the most important thing is that the matchmaker will get the benefits given by the two families.
"Okay, okay, if you like it, let's go back first, I have to sum up with Yuzhen." β
When Ding Shide and Wang Yuzhen learned about Ding Fengjun's love for other girls, they were really smiling and happy, coupled with the matchmaker's praise from the side, Ding Shide and Wang Yuzhen were very happy.
The matchmaker said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Oh, don't mention it, Feng Jun's eyes were about to pop out at that time, this girl is really handsome, I think it hooked Feng Jun's soul." β
Wang Yuzhen said happily: "It's still his grandmother's good vision that she chose such a wishful daughter-in-law for Feng Jun." β
The matchmaker waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about, how can I say that I am also his grandmother, and I can't worry about the child anymore?"
Ding Shide said with a smile: "Auntie, you also know the temper of this kid Feng Jun, and I hope you can talk to others when you go to the girl's side." β
The matchmaker said with a smile: "That's nature, can I not say good things about our own children?"
Ding Shide hurriedly took out a small bag made of paper paper, stretched out his hand and handed it to the matchmaker, and said, "Auntie, this matter can't trouble you, this is a little bit of my heart, you can take it first." β
The matchmaker pretended to excuse herself, and then pretended to be embarrassed, and accepted the red envelope, she said while putting the red envelope away: "Don't worry, this matter will be left to me, Feng Jun's happy wine, I am determined to drink it." β
Ding Fengjun couldn't listen to this kind of transactional words between them, so he casually found a reason to hide, and as a result, he even made a joke of the matchmaker: "Look at our Fengjun, are you still embarrassed?"
When I saw the matchmaker again, it was already the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, and seeing that the New Year was about to be celebrated, every household was busy pasting couplets and buying New Year's goods. Ding Fengjun's New Year's goods have been purchased, and only the Spring Festival couplets are left.
Ding Fenghai and Ding Fenghe both sides came with news, saying that they would not go home for the holiday this year, which was so fierce that there were two less people, Ding Fengjun really felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that in previous years, every 28th of the lunar month, the three of them would always fight and paste the Spring Festival couplets, in the end, the Spring Festival couplets are upright, but everyone's face is like a big cat, this year Ding Fengjun had to bring two sisters to stick, the eldest sister is two years younger than Ding Fengjun, the younger sister is one and a half years younger than the eldest sister, the two girls are also like flowers, the two of them have long since dropped out of school, and now work in a garment factory in YG County, although they are not old but more mature, even sticking a Spring Festival couplet is in order.
When the matchmaker went to Ding Fengjun's house, Ding Fengjun's brother and sister had just finished pasting the Spring Festival couplets.
"Feng Jun, are you done?" the matchmaker asked happily.
Ding Fengjun called out to his grandmother, and walked into the house with the matchmaker.
When Wang Yuzhen saw the matchmaker, she immediately greeted her with a smile, invited the matchmaker to her seat, and hurriedly took out some melon seeds, sugar and other small snacks on the table and courtesy the matchmaker.
The matchmaker excused himself with a smile on his face, and he couldn't get rid of Wang Yuzhen's enthusiasm, so he grabbed some melon seeds and knocked them up.
"Auntie, what did the woman say?" Wang Yuzhen pulled a stool and sat next to the matchmaker, and asked straight to the point.
"As long as it's the girl in our Fengjun's picture, with my three-inch tongue, isn't it easy to get her? Don't worry, as soon as I talk about our family's situation, I will agree there. The matchmaker said triumphantly.
Wang Yuzhen was overjoyed in her heart and said, "Auntie, thank you so much, you don't bother about his affairs." β
The matchmaker pretended to be angry and said, "What's polite with me, it's all my own family." β
Wang Yuzhen was a little embarrassed, she hurriedly greeted Ding Fengjun and said: "Fengjun, you don't say a word, how to say that your life's major events are also your grandmother's worries, you come to express it." β
After speaking, she looked at the matchmaker again and said, "Feng Jun, this kid is rigid, don't be like him." β
The matchmaker smiled and waved his hand and said, "How can it, who said that our child is rigid, he is very clever." β
Ding Fengjun sat there and was silent from beginning to end, not that he didn't know what to say, but he was too lazy to say, he didn't have much feeling about marriage, especially this kind of marriage that first got married and then fell in love, he was a little unclear So, the marriage he longed for was the kind of marriage that was pleasant and agreeable, not this kind of marriage with no emotional foundation, insensitivity, the order of his parents, and the words of the matchmaker.
But he also deeply understands that living in the current era, it seems that there is no other reason to resist except obedience, but Ding Fengjun has already made up his mind in his heart that if he has a child in the future, he must advocate the freedom of marriage and respect the child's choice.
"By the way, Yuzhen, I'm here this time, and I have one more thing to discuss with you. The matchmaker suddenly became serious, Wang Yuzhen didn't care about the matchmaker's emotional changes, she only said happily: "Auntie, you just have to say anything." β
The matchmaker rubbed his hands, smiled into the palm of his hand, and then said: "That's the case, you see that Jingzhi and Jinglan are not small, I am thinking about finding their in-laws, I don't know what your opinion is?"
Wang Yuzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "This matter, I have to ask his father's opinion, I can't be the master alone." β
The matchmaker smiled slightly and said, "I'm just asking, it's okay, when Shide comes back, you can ask him, if he is willing, I can do my best to find a good in-law for our daughter." β
Wang Yuzhen nodded and said no more.
"Okay, I have to go back too, the work at home is not over yet, and it looks like the New Year is coming, so I have to go back and clean up quickly. As he spoke, the matchmaker got up from his seat, and just after taking two steps, the matchmaker seemed to remember something, turned around and said to Wang Yuzhen: "By the way, the woman said, we will book the date here, as for the bride price or something, everything will be done according to the rules of our village." β
Wang Yuzhen agreed, and sent the matchmaker out.
Ding Fengjun also has a general understanding of the situation on the woman's side, the girl's name is Zhang Fengrong, the second in the family, there is an older sister above, and there are two younger brothers below. From the matchmaker's account, Ding Fengjun can also hear that this family has never been the kind of family with a lot of idle things, if this era pays attention to the right people, then these two of them are the best matched!
Ding Shide returned home, Wang Yuzhen told him what the matchmaker said, Ding Shide was naturally excited, the wedding date was set for the sixth day of August, and Ding Shide was reluctant to mention the matter of his eldest daughter, he didn't want to marry his daughter so early, he said that it would be two years later, and after Ding Fengjun's matter was completed, the next thing was to consider Ding Fenghe's marriage, the matter of the three sons had not been completed, how could he marry his daughter so early?
Years later, Ding Fengjun set foot on the road back to the brick kiln, Ye Wen's broken radio was still in Ding Fengjun's hand, Ding Fengjun thought about returning it, besides, except for Ye Wen, Ding Fengjun didn't know where to go.
This time, it happened that someone in the village was driving a three-horse carriage to visit relatives in the village near the brick kiln where Ding Fengjun was, so Ding Fengjun also happened to take a ride, and he was bored on the road, so Ding Fengjun turned on the radio, and it happened that this time the radio was singing the song that Ding Fengjun heard that night.
Ding Fengjun asked casually: "Who sang this song, it sounds pretty good." β
The owner of the car said absentmindedly: "It seems to be sung by a singer named Ma Shiyu, and her songs are really good." β
Ding Fengjun was stunned for a moment, Ma Shiyu? Could it be the same Ma Shiyu he knew? Or are they just the same name and surname?
