The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 53 The Matchmaker Comes to the Door
Every time Cheng Haiyi came to the factory, he would attract some attention. His resolute eyes, handsome appearance, and tall and straight figure were indeed the objects of demanding demands from women.But there is no way, the family already has an owner, and these onlookers can only look sideways.

Cheng Haiyi went straight to the director's office with a snack wrapped in kraft paper and tied with hemp rope.Others were curious, why didn't they look for Bai Meixi this time, but went to Director Wu's office!

Glancing at the door of Director Wu's room, Director Wu was busy with work, without raising his head, he said, "Come in."

Cheng Haiyi entered the office, stood still in front of Director Wu, and greeted politely: "Hello, Director Wu!"

Director Wu raised his head, and the moment he saw Cheng Haiyi, he was stunned for a moment, and then recalled that this person was Bai Meixi's military partner, Cheng Haiyi.

"Comrade Xiao Cheng, why are you here?" Director Wu was a little surprised that Cheng Haiyi would come to her.

Cheng Haiyi put the things on the table, and said to Director Wu: "Director Wu, be careful, it's not respectful. I came to Director Wu this time because I really want to ask you for help."

"Come here, what else do you bring? You are too polite." Director Wu said with a smile: "Sit down and talk, what's the matter?"

Cheng Haiyi dragged a stool and sat down beside him. Even when he was sitting, his body was still so tall and straight, maintaining the dignity of a soldier at all times.He cleared his throat and said to Director Wu:
"It's like this, Director Wu. I think about Comrade Xiaobai and I, there must be a matchmaker to come to propose a marriage. I don't know anyone here. Director Wu has had an affair with Comrade Xiaobai and me. Help, so I thought of Director Wu."

"Oh! I want to ask me to be a matchmaker for you and Xiaomei!" Director Wu looked at Cheng Haiyi, thought for a while, then nodded, and said to Cheng Haiyi: "Cheng, this matter is fine. Then you When are you going to go?"

"As soon as possible!" Cheng Haiyi smiled shyly.

Director Wu nodded, agreeing with Cheng Haiyi's idea, and said to him: "Success, if it doesn't work, let's do it after I get off work this afternoon!"

When Cheng Haiyi heard that Director Wu was so forthright, he felt grateful. He stood up and gave a military salute to Director Wu: "Thank you, Director Wu."

"Hehe, you're welcome, you're welcome!" Director Wu responded with a smile: "How about it! You come to see me in the evening, and I'll accompany you there."

"Okay!" Cheng Haiyi agreed: "If it's all right, I'll go back first."

Director Wu smiled slightly, looking at Cheng Haiyi's leaving back, feeling deeply moved in his heart.This Bai Meixi can be considered lucky!At least I met such a nice man.What is a blessing in disguise?She finally understood that if it wasn't for the hardships that happened back then, maybe she wouldn't have the fate she has today.

Cheng Haiyi went to Bai Meixi's dormitory, and told Bai Meixi about going to propose marriage today. Bai Meixi told Cheng Haiyi to be prepared, because it might not be as smooth as imagined.Soon Bai Meixi went to work, and Cheng Haiyi returned to the guest house.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Cheng Haiyi went directly to Director Wu to buy something, and the two went directly to Bai's house.

When they arrived at Bai's house, He Shaoying and her sister-in-law were gluing matchboxes in the house. "Sister-in-law, are you at home?" Director Wu greeted the room.

He Shaoying raised his head and looked outside, only to see that it was the soldier he had seen in the hospital, and he was accompanied by the director of the copper mine.He Shaoying stood up, walked in front of them, and greeted Director Wu with a smile: "Director Wu, why are you here?"

"Isn't this a matter of loyalty and entrustment?" Director Wu pointed at Cheng Haiyi next to him and introduced to He Shaoying: "This is Comrade Cheng...this is Xiaomei's mother."

"Hello, Auntie." Cheng Haiyi greeted politely.

As soon as she saw that it was Cheng Haiyi, He Shaoying's heart was already a little bit different, and looking at the current situation, she was completely sure of her inner thoughts.This man must have brought director Wu to propose marriage.

Ah!This is exactly what I want!It's not that easy to marry off her family's cash cow.

He Shaoying invited them into the room without losing his composure, moved the matchbox on the table to the side, gave each of them a glass of water, and asked, "Director Wu, what's the matter with you?"

"You must have known about Xiaomei and Comrade Cheng for a long time, right? Didn't you bring Comrade Cheng here today to propose marriage?" Director Wu made no secrets and went straight to the point.

Everyone knows about Cheng Haiyi and Bai Meixi, and He Shaoying doesn't have to pretend to be a liger.

He Shaoying didn't expect Director Wu to be so straightforward. She smiled awkwardly and remained silent for a while, then raised her head, looked at Director Wu and said, "Director Wu, I didn't expect my daughter to get married so early! Our family still pointed She earns money to support her family!"

He Shaoying's words have already expressed his attitude, nothing more than wanting more money.Director Wu said to He Shaoying: "Men's college should be married, and female college's should be married. What's more, Xiaomei has reached the age of marriage, you can't keep her at home forever, right? Let's do it! Xiaomei and Comrade Cheng get married , what do you want, you just say it."

He Shaoying's nonsense was nothing more than she wanted to ask for more money. Since she was pretending to be reserved, Director Wu directly pointed it out to her.

Now that Director Wu said so, He Shaoying no longer hid it, and said to Director Wu: "Director Wu, you also know our family's conditions. If Xiaomei gets married, our family will lose a child." What an income! How can our big family survive?"

"What if you want to get married! It's not impossible. What about Xiaomei's salary in the future! We have to hand it over in full, after all, we have to support our family, right? As for the bride price... we don't want much, just 500 yuan."

Oh my God!Not much?Just 500 yuan?She's a lion with a big mouth, but she wants to swallow people alive!Does she know what 500 yuan is?How much is a person’s monthly salary now?Let’s not talk about others, let’s talk about their Xiaomei. Doesn’t it only cost 20 yuan a month?Isn’t it only 240 yuan this year?Even if we don’t eat or drink, we still have to save the 500 yuan for more than two years!

Cheng Haiyi was not surprised, because these matters had already been negotiated with Bai Meixi, so it was expected.He Shaoying's face has already been seen through by Bai Meixi, and Cheng Haiyi is naturally not so surprised!
Having said that, he will live with Bai Meixi in the future, and he still needs to discuss the dowry with Bai Meixi. As a future wife, he still needs to respect her.
