Thirty-fourth: The matchmaker breaks through the threshold
"Wow...... Penny a fish! ”
"It's so expensive! Then I catch more fish a day and I don't have to do farm work anymore! ”
"Really, this is a fake thing?"
As soon as this news came out, it was like a boiling oil pot, and a drop of water suddenly splashed into it, which was originally lively and non-stop, but now it is even more crackling and discussed.
Xie and Mrs. Li really didn't expect that they were obviously coming to make trouble, but now they were blocked by Li Chuxia and didn't say anything, and now she is going to say something about catching fish.
"What I said is true, if you don't believe it, you can ask the village chief, and if you think you can catch fish, you can also sign up, but now only fifty people are accepted, if you want to go, hurry up and find the village chief to sign up."
Li Chuxia thought that he had finally told this matter, and when he thought of making fish balls for so long last night, his whole body was suffering from back pain.
Not only do you have to go down to the river to catch fish, but you also have to make fish balls, and you have to waste a whole day making fish balls.
Hearing Li Chuxia say this, the villagers still cared about the excitement now, so they rushed to the village chief to sign up for fishing.
Seeing the scattered villagers, all of them ran to find the village chief who lived in the village, Li Chuxia turned his head back to his house with relief, and continued to sleep under the quilt.
Mrs. Li and Xie were completely ignored, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law exchanged glances and decided that they would also try to catch fish.
After all, 5 cents can be exchanged for a fish, which is more expensive than the fish sold on the street.
Baili Yunzheng sat at the table and watched that the door of Li Chuxia's house was not closed tightly, and he was a little hesitant to go to her to make it clear, but when he thought of her indifferent face, his originally enthusiastic heart was like being poured cold water and completely cooled down.
The village chief was eating breakfast with a bowl in his hand when he heard a sharp knock on the door of his yard.
"Is the village chief here? Chief! ”
"Village chief, I'm here to sign up!"
"Village Chief, I'm here too!"
Puzzled, he put down the bowl and walked out to see that the village chief was simply stunned by the scene in front of him, and a group of people surrounded his yard and looked at him excitedly.
After finding someone to explain the ins and outs, it was Li Chuxia who told him about the selection.
"You want to sign up one by one." When the village chief decided to choose people, he hurriedly took out a pen and paper and recorded the names of these people.
Originally, the village chief discussed with Li Chuxia and said that he would choose people by himself, but during this time, Li Chuxia had not been able to believe it, he thought it was just talking, but he didn't expect her to tell it today.
The village chief, who was holding a brush to record his name, wrote a name and called the next person over, but he didn't expect to raise his eyes and see two people who surprised him.
"Why are Mrs. Li and Xie here?" The village chief asked suspiciously.
Mrs. Li said directly happily, "Isn't this 5 yuan a fish?" We want to earn some money. ”
Without thinking about it, the village chief directly rejected Mrs. Li in front of him, as well as Xie Shi, "You two better go back, going down to the river to catch fish at this time is a physical job, and women are not very useful." ”
The two women were indignant when they were kicked out, and it was true that most of the people who came to register and write their names were men, but they also wanted to earn the money......
For a while, in the village, because of what Li Chuxia said about catching fish for 5 yuan, everyone was chatting hotly, and no one thought that now they could earn so much money by catching fish.
After the matter had been fermenting in the village for a day, everyone knew about it, and as long as the young and middle-aged laborers who could go down to the river to catch fish, they all went to register, and even spread to the village next door, and many people came to try their luck.
For a while, Li Chuxia became a celebrity in the village because of this incident, and everyone greeted her enthusiastically after seeing her.
Two days later, Li Chuxia looked at the obese woman in front of him who was wearing a bright red dress and had a matchmaker mole on her mouth.
"You are?"
The woman happily walked directly into Li Chuxia's cabin, sat on a stool and poured herself a cup of tea without seeing it, and then explained who she was after taking a sip.
"I am the most famous matchmaker in this village, as long as I come forward to get married, it will not be impossible!"
The matchmaker stared at Li Chuxia, who was standing next to her, very confidently, and after carefully looking at the girl in front of her, she found that her appearance and figure were very good, and it was definitely easy to say a good family business.
"If you want to say that you are looking for someone else, what are you doing at my house?" Li Chuxia began to drive people away very unceremoniously, she saw that the matchmaker was very inexplicable, walked into the house and poured tea for herself, not to mention that she was very confident and wanted to say goodbye to herself.
The matchmaker didn't expect that she would be kicked out of the door by Li Chuxia, but she still stood at the door unremittingly and continued to lobby, "Huh? What's the matter with you, girl? Men should get married, women should get married! It's time to get married! ”
"I told you everything, I don't need it." Li Chuxia was not angry and closed the door of his house directly, and turned the matchmaker away like that.
Li Chuyun looked at the person's actions just now, and he didn't quite understand what the matchmaker did, and looked at his sister's appearance as if he didn't like the person who came to the door just now.
"Sister, what is a matchmaker?" Li Chuyun asked the person in front of him with some puzzlement.
Li Chuxia thought for a while before explaining: "A matchmaker is a person who matches men and women who are not yet married, and then lets the two get married. ”
Originally, I wanted to talk about Yue Lao or something, but when I thought of Li Chuyun thinking like this, I didn't understand it, so I simply shut up and didn't continue to talk about it.
Li Chuyun nodded ignorantly, so can she find a matchmaker for her and her big brother in the future......
As a result, what Li Chuxia didn't expect was that after the first matchmaker came to the door, there would be a second one, and even at most, there would be eight matchmakers at home at the same time a day.
Each of them took the latest men's picture album to her to see, and asked Li Chuxia to choose the one that suits her best.
Li Chuxia, who was a little speechless, didn't expect that the ancient matchmakers were so desperate now? There are even people who have found a picture album to show themselves.
After flipping through it casually once or twice, I found that those people were extremely ugly, and there was no way to compare with Baili Yunzheng.
If you want to find someone who looks and has an extraordinary bearing, it must be better than Baili Yunzheng, right?
"The crooked melons and cracked dates on these albums one by one, are you trying to stain someone's eyes when you take them? Could it be that I, Li Chuxia, look like this, and I don't deserve to be a good-looking person? ”
Li Chuxia looked at the portraits on the album, one is uglier than the other, he is really a little speechless, even if he is a girl who is independent of the portal in this era, she looks a little strong in the eyes of these people, and she is not worthy of a better Langjun, right?
"Then Miss Li, will you take a look at this again?" Another matchmaker hurriedly sent the portrait in her hand, hoping that Li Chuxia would be able to see the right eye.
Li Chuxia glanced at the portrait sent next to him, and it looked a little better than the people around him, but his facial features were not misplaced, and he looked ordinary.
"Take it away, you people hurry up and let me go!" I was really annoyed by these matchmakers, and Li Chuxia, who felt a little fresh at first, felt a little annoyed after playing for two days.
These matchmakers are chattering in her ears all the time about which son is very good-looking, which son's family is very rich, and those matchmakers praise those men for being able to fly to the sky, but the portraits are still miserable.
Besides, Li Chuxia actually didn't plan to get married so early, she wanted to find someone in her heart to slowly transition her life in this countryside in the future.
After this day passed, those matchmakers were still persevering, wanting to break through the threshold of Li Chuxia's house.
Li Chuxia, who couldn't bear it anymore, went directly to the city to find Wei Jingran.
"Jing Ran, please give me a few strong men!" Li Chuxia sat beside Wei Jingran with a bitter face.
Wei Jingran was so shocked by these words that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, "Huh? ”
Li Chuxia, who was lying on the table, looked up at Wei Jingran, who was surprised, and then remembered that there was something wrong in his words, so he quickly changed his words, "No, I said it wrong, don't think too much!" ”
"I don't know what's going on, recently there have been a lot of matchmakers in my house who have to tell me about matchmaking, and I can't get rid of them, so I thought about asking you to borrow a few people and put them at my door, and then they won't dare to harass me."
Li Chuxia looked at Wei Jingran in front of him sincerely, after all, this man was his last hope, and Baili Yunzheng disappeared for two days and didn't come back, so he couldn't count on it at all.
"That's because of this." The corners of Wei Jingran's mouth hooked up a touch of arc, looking at the dejected look of the girl in front of her, she knew that she had been tortured by these matchmakers recently.
"Since you've opened your mouth to borrow someone from me, then of course I can't help but borrow it."
Wei Jingran directly arranged a few strong subordinates and asked them to follow Li Chuxia back to the countryside.
With so many strong men guarding the door of their house, those matchmakers who wanted to come to the door to talk to the matchmaker were all stopped by these people.
Seeing the fierce and vicious appearance of these men, the matchmakers retreated even if they wanted to come to the door to tell Li Chuxia about the matchmakers.
Li Chuxia has these strong subordinates standing at the door to help him guard, and he no longer has to worry about those annoying matchmakers coming to the door, he is very relieved, and even sleeping and dreaming at night is a lot sweeter.
"Who are these people?"
After Baili Yunzheng came back from the city today, he saw that there were many strangers at the gate of Li Chuxia's courtyard, and looked at them suspiciously.
