Chapter 92
Matchmaker?

It never occurred to me in my life to play the role of matchmaker.I am a believer in free love. What I hated most in my previous life was the various blind dates arranged by the elders. Sometimes I wonder why the elders still enjoy building bridges after repeated defeats. Does being a matchmaker have such a sense of accomplishment?
I rubbed my head, Xiu Niang really threw me a big trouble, this kind of thing is thankless, it's a good thing if it works, if it doesn't work, then both ends will suffer, Zhu Bajie looks in the mirror, he is not a person inside and out.But let me reject her, I really can't say it out loud, I am afraid that Xiu Niang mustered up the courage to come to me to open the mouth, one head and two big in a while, what is this about?or push?I thought about it depressedly for two or three days, but I couldn't make up my mind.Every day in the shop, seeing sister Xiu's expectant eyes made me feel even more like a thorn in my back.

On this day, I took Jinsha to the store to patrol the store as usual. Sister Xiu knocked on the door and entered my office. When I saw her, I felt restless.Sister Xiu stood in front of me and said eagerly: "Miss Ye, I..."

"I haven't found a chance to tell Manager An yet." I said hastily.Sister Xiu blushed, and said softly: "Miss Ye just keep it in mind..."

"I remember, I..., I'll talk to him in a while." I said with a guilty conscience. Sister Xiu lowered her head, put an embroidered purse on my desk, and said shyly: "Then please, Miss Ye, I will help you later." I give this to him..."

"Huh?" Not only do you want to be a matchmaker, but you also want to matchmaking?I can't laugh or cry.

"I won't bother Miss Ye anymore..." Sister Xiu blushed even more when she heard my surprise, and hurriedly turned and walked out.

I picked up the purse, and saw that there was a delicate Bingdilian embroidered on it, the meaning was self-evident.It seemed that I couldn't drag it on any longer, I thought about it for a while, and opened the door to stop a guy, asking him to ask An Yuanxi to come to my office.Jinsha ate two pieces of snacks just now, probably tired from playing, she curled up on the soft couch and fell asleep after a while, I took the cloak on the hanger and covered her, sat on the edge of the couch and patted her face gently After a while, the little guy breathed evenly.

An Yuanxi knocked on the door and came in. I motioned him to sit across from the desk: "Keep your voice down, don't wake Jinsha up."

I stood up and sat on the office chair, and saw him look at the sleeping Jinsha tenderly, and smiled slightly, An Yuanxi is considered a good man, except for being a bit pedantic, I can't fault him in other aspects, and Xiu Niang is also considered good taste.He turned to look at me and said with a smile, "What do you want from me?"

"Uh..." I moved my lips, for some reason, I felt like a stone weighing a thousand gold was hanging on my mouth, alas, I still couldn't say it.I turned around and poured two cups of tea, handed him one, and sat down again. Seeing my strange expression, An Yuanxi laughed and said, "What's so hard to say?"

"Uh, An Yuanxi, what do you think of Sister Xiu?" I swallowed my saliva and said with difficulty.

"Sister Xiu?" An Yuanxi raised his eyebrows, not knowing what I meant, and hurriedly said, "That's right, the embroidery skills are good, and the embroidery workers are managed well, and they are really responsible..."

"Okay, okay..." It seems that Shudai An has a good impression of Sister Xiu, so I can say what I'm going to say next, and I said with a smile, "When you mention Sister Xiu, you are full of praise. It seems that Sister Xiu This guy is really nice."

"That's right." Ann nodded, "Will Miss Ye give us a raise?"

I glared: "Go! I just gave you a wage increase, aren't you satisfied?"

He smiled and took a sip of tea: "That's right, no one thinks too much money!"

"You're a scholar, so you'll be full of money no matter what you learn!" This nerd became more and more capable of talking back, and I stammered angrily.

"I'm a businessman now, so of course I'm in the name of profit." An Yuanxi had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at me intently with his dark pupils.

I rolled my eyes, picked up the tea and took a sip, An Yuanxi saw me angry, smiled slightly: "What's the matter?"

Interrupted by this nerd, I forgot about the business, I snorted, rolled my eyes, and said with a smile, seeing his smiling face, "An Yuanxi, I watched the stars at night recently, and I noticed that your red luan moved. !"

An Yuanxi was startled, and a thin blush suddenly appeared on his face: "What nonsense..."

I sniggered triumphantly, to see that I didn't suppress your arrogance: "An Yuanxi, I'm not talking nonsense, you not only move the red luan star, but your star is still in our shop!"

He suddenly became awkward, with a trace of nervousness in his eyes, I smiled and said: "An Yuanxi, do you have someone you like in our store?"

He looked at me steadfastly, his eyes were a little dark, as gloomy as the sea, and there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his lips: "So what?"

"It's easy if you have it!" I put my heart down, put the embroidered purse in his hand, and said in a breath: "Sister Xiu came to ask me to match her today. This purse is given to you by her. It can be seen that she is very interesting to you, since you are also interested in sister Xiu, it is better to settle this matter, you go back and tell Mrs An, how about asking Mrs An to go to sister Xiu's house to propose marriage?"

An Yuanxi held the purse, his hands froze, the blush on his face receded, and his complexion became more and more ugly. I saw that his expression was not good, so I hurriedly said: "Sister Xiu has no elders, but since she is entrusted to me to help her, I will definitely let her marry into your family in a glorious manner, so that no one will laugh at her..."

Why is his face darker?I swallowed my saliva: "If you are embarrassed to tell your mother, I will go to Mrs. An to discuss how..."

"When did I say I was interested in her?" An Yuanxi interrupted me coldly, his eyes closed dangerously.

"Didn't you just say that Sister Xiu is a good craftsman and a real person?" I saw a flash of anger in his eyes, and some hairs on his back for some reason: "Uh..., don't you think that Sister Xiu is older than her? Are you older? An Yuanxi, don’t be so pedantic. There is a saying in our hometown that’s a woman who is a junior, holding a gold brick. You can make a lot of money by marrying a wife who is older than you..."

"Shut up!" He stood up angrily, and Jinsha on the bed turned over, and I gave him a quick look: "Keep your voice down, why are you so fierce?"

"You..." He seemed to be suppressing his anger, but his voice lowered, and he said in a muffled voice, "I will handle my affairs myself, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Do you think I want to worry about this?" I said angrily, "I'm exhausted, and I knew it would be a thankless effort to do this job, if sister Xiu didn't ask me to help..."

"Help her if she asks you. Have you ever asked me what I think?" An Yuanxi said coldly with a straight face.

"Aren't I just asking you?" I said angrily, "Why are you losing your temper..."

"You know it's hard work, why do you still ask me?" Some complicated emotions welled up in his deep pupils, "You know it's hard work, it means you know in your heart that I don't have that kind of thought for Sister Xiu, you It’s clear in my heart, why do you still ask me?”

"I..." I stared at him blankly, unable to answer.Why should I ask him?I actually knew the answer in my heart, I wasn't for Sister Xiu, I just faintly felt that there was an inexplicable undercurrent surging between me and An Yuanxi who didn't know when.And I, subconsciously resisted this undercurrent, my heart was riddled with holes and couldn't stand the toss.

He stood up, leaned forward, and approached me, with a dangerous signal flashing in his eyes: "Why?"

I stepped back and leaned my back against the back of the chair. Seeing his hurt eyes, my heart suddenly trembled: "An Yuanxi..."

"Why?" His head moved closer and closer, and his hot breath almost hit my face. I suddenly came back to my senses, stood up abruptly, and growled: "An Yuanxi, you are too presumptuous, don't Forget that I am your boss, get out!"

His body froze, his clear eyes dimmed for a moment, he slowly straightened his back, and looked at me steadily, the complex emotions in his eyes faded away like a tide, and there was no emotion for a moment. He sneered: "Yes, Boss Ye!" He patted the purse in his hand on my table: "What you collect yourself, return it yourself!"

He turned around and walked out straight. I bit my lip and sat down on the chair, staring at the embroidered purse on the table. My mind suddenly became a mess and I couldn't think about anything.Heh..., I covered my forehead and closed my eyes, God, how did it become like this?
"Sister Ah Hua..." Jin Sha didn't know when she woke up, she stood beside me, and pulled my sleeve timidly, "Did you quarrel with Brother A Niu?"

This child is still only willing to be called Brother An Yuanxi A Niu, and I can't change my words. I put Jin Sha on my lap, and I don't know how to explain to her: "We are not arguing..."

"But Brother A Niu seems to be very angry..." Jinsha looked at me sadly, "Sister Ah Hua and Brother A Niu don't quarrel, I'm so afraid..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we don't quarrel..." I hurriedly coaxed her, this child has become very sensitive since the family changed dramatically, "Jinsha, sister will take you to the street to play?"

She nodded silently, I led her out, An Yuanxi turned her face away when she saw me in the lobby.Jin Sha glanced at me, then turned to call him: "Brother A Niu, sister A Hua and I are going to play in the street, will you go?"

"Well, Jinsha, have fun." He smiled at Jinsha and patted her on the head, "Brother has to do something, so I won't play with you." After finishing speaking, he turned his head without even looking at me gone.

laugh!The temper is quite big, ignore people, ignore people, who is afraid of whom?I suppressed the unhappiness in my heart and led Jinsha out, sulking all the way.Qiang went to the market with Jinsha and bought a bunch of things for her, including a few vivid dough figures, a butterfly kite, a bag of fried chestnuts, and walked to Defulou. The smell of steamed stuffed buns came, and he stood still and refused to leave: "Sister, I can't walk anymore."

I laughed and saw her greedy face, she obviously wanted to eat steamed stuffed buns, and said she couldn't walk.I led her into the store: "Then let's go in and have a rest."

Jinsha smiled sheepishly, and I led her to sit at a table in the corner, and ordered Xiao Er to bring a basket of crystal steamed dumplings and a basket of steamed dumplings. A must, especially the crystal steamed buns, with thin skin and fresh meat, very delicious.Jinsha is still not very good at using chopsticks, and she is clumsy when picking things up. I smiled and watched her tremblingly stuff the bun into her mouth. Before she put it in, the bun fell on the table. She glared at the disobedient Taking a look at the bun, he simply dropped his chopsticks, grabbed the bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and the oil from the bun dripped all over his chin.I looked at her childish behavior with a broken smile, took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, and said with a smile: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone at the next table angrily say: "'Yunshangfang' is really too much, it keeps delaying our goods, saying that they want to catch up with Ninth Prince's embroidery, and ask us to wait for a date, We obviously asked for the goods in front of the Ninth Prince, and when we asked them to reason, they actually said, "You can't wait, Yunshangfang has no shortage of these scattered businesses." The capital can be regarded as a big shop with a head and a face, when did it suffer from such idleness..."

Jiuye?I raised my eyebrows, turned my head and looked at the next table, and saw two middle-aged men who looked like businessmen, one of them was full of anger, and it was the man who had just spoken.I only listened to another man's persuasion: "Oh, don't be angry, he is a prince, of course 'Yunshangfang' has to curry favor with him, besides, 'Yunshangfang' shop bullies customers, not once or twice , that’s the ‘Gongpin Embroidery Workshop’, didn’t you just go for that gold-lettered signboard…”

"But I have to rush this batch of goods, alas..." The man at the front sighed, "What should I do now..."

My heart moved, I got up and went to the next table, and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, can I sit down?"

The two men looked at me in surprise: "Who are you?"

I just sat down and said with a smile, "The little girl Ye Haihua is the owner of the 'Jinxiu Zhuang' in Cangdu. I heard the conversation between the two gentlemen just now, and I know that the husband wants to rush for a batch of embroidery. Since the 'Yunshangfang' is blocked Why don't you try to find another embroidery shop, sir? The embroidery products of our Jinxiu shop are not bad, if you are interested, sir, you can come to our shop to have a look."

"'Splendid Embroidery Village'? I've also heard of it. It's a little famous, but it can't be compared with 'Yunshangfang'." One of the men said, "'Yunshangfang' has been a 'tribute embroidery village' for three dynasties, which is not ordinary. It can be compared with the small embroidery village in the country.”

I smiled lightly and remained unmoved: "Sir, fame is based on the quality of the goods. Only good quality goods can make them better. Besides, sometimes, bearing the name of 'Tribute Embroidery' is also a They must first take care of the needs of the royal family before they can take care of ordinary merchants. Just like now, my husband is in a hurry to ask for a batch of goods, but "Yunshangfang" can't give it to you. Although our "Jinxiuzhuang" is not as good as Yunshangfang We are well-known, but customers have a good reputation for our products. This gentleman can inquire casually, and our embroidery shop has some new patterns that are absolutely not available in other embroidery shops. If you are interested, you can also make some choices. The little girl is very happy. If you have the sincerity to accept this business from Mr. Mister, why not consider it?"

"This..." The man from before hesitated for a moment, looked at his companion, and said with a smile, "Boss Ye is right, since Boss Ye is so sincere, I will go to your embroidery shop to have a look before making a decision. "

I stood up with a smile on my face: "That's kind, gentlemen, please." I quickly packed up, led Jinsha and took the two men to the shop, and I didn't expect to quarrel with An Yuanxi and escape the door. A deal, hehe, I was so happy that I also threw An Yuanxi's poker face to the back of my mind.
