Chapter 96

Matchmaker Jiang in the east of the city is the most famous matchmaker in the county. The big families in the city will always look for Matchmaker Jiang, so Matchmaker Jiang's business is very good.

It also costs money to invite Matchmaker Jiang. Hua Qingshan wants to give Sister Yan the best, and also wants Aunt Liao to hold her head up in the village. Matchmaker Jiang is coming.

Hua Xiaoqiao knew that a few hundred pennies would not be enough to invite Matchmaker Jiang, but she understood Hua Qingshan's thoughts, she didn't care about spending money, she only cared that Matchmaker Jiang could come.

After going out from home, he has been racking his brains to think how to make Hua Qingshan think that Matchmaker Jiang doesn't want much money.

The only way is for her to go to Matchmaker Jiang in advance, and then tell Matchmaker Jiang to give all the money to Matchmaker Jiang, and then Matchmaker Jiang will accept the few hundred Wen from Hua Qingshan.

It's just that Hua Qingshan wants to follow, such an idea is a bit unrealistic, it seems that he has to find a way to prevent Hua Qingshan from following.

Seeing that she was about to walk out of the alley, she stopped suddenly, stretched out her hand and pulled Hua Qingshan's sleeve and said with a smile: "Brother, I think you should prepare the carriage first, Matchmaker Jiang has a lot of things to do, so she can't walk with us , I’ll just go and invite her alone, there are others who may not be at home.”

Anyway, Hua Qingshan was immersed in joy now, and he didn't notice any contradiction in Hua Xiaoqiao's words, so he nodded in agreement in a daze.

Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly, Hua Xiaoqiao ran away alone.

Hua Qingshan was very excited just now, but when he saw Hua Xiaoqiao's back walking away, he realized that there was no agreement on where to meet, so he quickly chased after her.

Being chased by Hua Qingshan and Hua Xiaoqiao was very helpless.

"Xiao Qiao, where will we meet later, and if I look for a car first, what will happen if Matchmaker Jiang doesn't come?"

After a little time to think about what Hua Xiaoqiao said just now, I felt that there was a little contradiction in the middle.

Seeing that Hua Qingshan saw through her, Hua Xiaoqiao could only smile awkwardly and said: "Brother, you care so much about what you do, you have to think about the best in everything, right? After you find the car, come directly to Jiang Matchmaker's house. This It's still early, Matchmaker Jiang must not have gone out."

Hua Qingshan thought about it a bit more this time, and felt that this was the truth.

She left with a silly smile.

Seeing Hua Qingshan walk away again, Hua Xiaoqiao breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed her whole body.

Matchmaker Jiang's house is easy to find. Everyone in the county knows that there is a century-old willow tree in front of Matchmaker Jiang's house, so when Hua Xiaoqiao goes to the east of the city, she can see the crown of the willow tree far away, just follow the direction. .

The two gates of Matchmaker Jiang's house are very new, and the vermilion door always looks like it has been painted by a talented person. She has heard of this. Matchmaker Jiang likes to be different from other people's homes, so that it is easier for others to find her home, so Just order people to paint the gate every once in a while.

Time was short, she had to settle everything before Hua Qingshan came, tidied her clothes, wiped her hair with her hands and felt satisfied with everything, then stepped on the steps.

Tap the copper ring lightly, and after a while, you hear a sound behind the door.

The side door opened, and a young man in blue poked his head out. When he saw Hua Xiaoqiao, he laughed, "Which house are you from, are you looking for my wife?"

Hua Xiaoqiao was recognized by the servant as the maid of the rich family.

Without arguing with the boy, she walked over and asked politely: "I wonder if your wife is there? I have a marriage in hand and I need her help."

I heard that there is a business coming, and the attitude of the servant cannot be said to be bad.

Smiling, he opened the door and signaled Hua Xiaoqiao to go in: "You come in first, it happens that Madam is having breakfast right now and I will take you in to find her."

Hua Xiaoqiao originally wanted to be modest, and didn't want to disturb Matchmaker Jiang when she was eating, but when she thought that her own time was also urgent, she didn't go any further, and followed the servant directly into the yard.

The yard is not very big, the second entrance is the courtyard where the servants live, and the inner courtyard is the yard where Matchmaker Jiang lives.

It's still early now, and the maids and servants in the yard are still cleaning, so it's not surprising to see Hua Xiaoqiao come in.

Pass through a round arch to reach the backyard. The scenery of the backyard is much more exquisite than that of the front yard, and there is no time to appreciate the scenery in the yard.

The boy went in and let Hua Xiaoqiao enter the house after a short announcement.

The first thing you see when you enter the house is a middle-aged woman in decent clothes sitting on an ancient pier drinking gruel.

Behind the woman stood a maidservant wearing a floral train and a child's bun.

Hua Xiaoqiao knew that this well-dressed woman should be Matchmaker Jiang.

Matchmaker Jiang put down the chopsticks in her hand, and the smile on her face was so gentle that one couldn't help but feel a sense of intimacy.

"Which house are you from?" She also thought that Hua Xiaoqiao was the maid of that house.

The maid brought up the stool and asked Hua Xiaoqiao to sit down. Hua Xiaoqiao said with a smile: "I am not from anyone's house. I am here today to ask Matchmaker Jiang. I want the matchmaker to help my brother talk about a marriage. The marriage is already done. Yes, I just need Matchmaker Jiang to come over."

What this means is that both parties have already agreed, and now they are just asking the matchmaker to help them out.

Matchmaker Jiang understood the meaning in the middle, but looking at Hua Xiaoqiao's clothes, she didn't look like a child from a rich family.

He said very kindly: "I don't know if I should say something or not. My price is not cheap, so I like to say it first."

Hua Xiaoqiao naturally knew what Matchmaker Jiang meant, and took out a tael of silver from her cuff and put it on the table: "I don't know if this money is enough."

She felt that a tael of silver was about the same, after all, she was just letting Matchmaker Jiang go to save face.

Matchmaker Jiang glanced at the money on the table, and smiled gently: "Enough, when are you leaving?"

"Let's go right away, it won't take more than an hour to go back and forth." Hua Xiaoqiao said quickly.

The maid handed the handkerchief to Matchmaker Jiang from behind, and Matchmaker Jiang wiped her mouth and put the handkerchief on the table lightly, then stood up: "Let's go, I'll follow you now, but what else do I need to do?"

Things always need to be clarified, and she is also worried that she will say something wrong when the time comes.

Hua Xiaoqiao also stood up and was a little embarrassed: "Our family's affairs are a bit complicated. I hope Jiang Matchmaker will not tell my brother about the money I gave you when she sees my brother."

Matchmaker Jiang originally thought it was just an ordinary visit, and she did not do such things less, but she did not expect that there seemed to be an inside story behind this incident.

As a matchmaker, it's inevitable that she likes to hear some weird things. Hua Xiaoqiao's young age makes these things a little unbelievable.
