Ye Dong put on new clothes. Not only did he wear a belt on his trousers, but he even wore leather shoes on his feet.
You must know that in this era, few people in the village can afford to wear leather shoes.
He kept running around inside and outside the house, making a fuss.
Ye Guosheng and Zhao Qiufen looked at their sons and they looked forward to the blind date today.
In this way, the important things on their minds as a couple can be put down.
"Xiaodong, come here."
Ye Ning waited until Ye Dong was ready to show off, then called him in front of him.
Today Mrs. Wang is bringing two girls over. One of the two girls is one year younger than Ye Dong, and the other is two years older than Ye Dong.
They are not from the surrounding villages, they all live on the other side of the mountain.
This time Mrs. Wang obviously put a lot of thought into it. Knowing that Ye Dong had a bad reputation, she went to distant places to look for candidates.
"Wait for them to come over in a while. Remember to speak more calmly. Don't brag if you can help it."
Ye Ning tried her best to warn Ye Dong.
"Sister, don't worry, I know how to get in touch with girls."
Ye Dong looked completely confident.
Ye Ning looked at her parents helplessly.
At this time, Mrs. Wang's voice sounded in the yard.
coming!
Next to Mrs. Wang was a girl. The girl was about 1.58 meters tall and a little thin, but her skin was fair. Although the appearance is not very beautiful, it gives people a sense of coquettishness that I feel pity for.
When Ye Dong saw the girl for the first time, he couldn't look away.
Ye Ning saw all his reactions.
Zhao Qiu Equinox welcomed Mrs. Wang and the girl into the house.
"Her name is Liu Jingjing, she is 19 years old this year. She has three younger brothers at home, and her parents are still alive. She is just a daughter."
Mrs. Wang took the initiative to introduce the girl's situation, and Ye Guosheng and Zhao Qiufen also listened extremely carefully.
"Hello uncle, hello aunt, hello sister."
Liu Jingjing greeted them obediently at Mrs. Wang's signal.
When he finally faced Ye Dong, he was so shy that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
Mrs. Wang was already used to this situation and urged Ye Dong to take Liu Jingjing to the room next door to have some private contact.
Ye Dong smiled and rolled his eyes, he couldn't wait for a long time.
After the two went out, Mrs. Wang said to Ye Guosheng and Zhao Qiufen: "The girl's family knows about Ye Dong's situation. They don't mind, but they just have requirements for the bride price."
At the end of the conversation, Mrs. Wang looked specifically at Ye Ning.
Everyone knows some things well, so naturally there is no need to hide them.
Ye Ning said: "Aunt Wang, just say it, we are listening."
"The girl's family has said that she wants a gift of 100 yuan, thirty pounds of pork, and fifty pounds of white flour."
The conditions stated by Mrs. Wang shocked both Ye Guosheng and Zhao Qiufen.
There are "market prices" for marrying a wife in the village. The average bride price is 66 yuan, and the most for a girl with good conditions is 88 yuan. But at Liu Jingjing's house, it costs 100 yuan to open a mouth, and all those things add up to dozens of extra yuan.
"Is it too much?" Sure enough, Ye Guosheng immediately questioned it.
Mrs. Wang didn't mind either, and even echoed, "It's indeed too much, but who asked our Ye Dong to have such conditions?"
They should also understand that if it wasn't for money, who would be willing to marry their daughter to a troublemaker like Ye Dong?
Ye Guosheng was instantly speechless.
I can only blame my son for not living up to expectations.
Mrs. Wang always paid attention to Ye Ning's face, knowing that she had the final say on this matter now.
As expected, Ye Ning didn't put forward much of an opinion. He just said lightly: "Let Xiaodong get in touch first and see if the two of them are destined."
Her words undoubtedly gave Mrs. Wang reassurance, and she never let go of the smile on her face.
Ye Dong and Liu Jingjing chatted alone for about half an hour before they walked out with unfinished content.
Even Ye Ning could see Ye Dong's satisfaction with Liu Jingjing.
But there was another one behind him, so Ye Ning did not immediately ask Ye Dong for his opinion.
Mrs. Wang sent Liu Jingjing away, and soon picked up the second girl on a blind date at the entrance of the village.
When the girl was brought to the Ye family, the Ye family were all shocked when they saw her.
Completely different from Liu Jingjing. The girl in front of me is at least 1.7 meters tall by visual inspection. Although she is not fat, she looks very strong.
The girl had a smile on her face, and her skin was the color of wheat from being exposed to the sun all year round. And because she is older than Ye Dong, standing with Ye Dong is like a big sister.
Ye Dong no longer had the smile he had when facing Liu Jingjing, and his withered face was so tense that he almost wrote the words "dislike" on his forehead.
"My name is Kong Jia. Hello, uncle and aunt."
Before Mrs. Wang even spoke, Kong Jia had already introduced herself generously.
But when she saw Ye Dong, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, she immediately frowned.
"Are you Ye Dong?"
"I am, what's wrong?" Ye Dong responded angrily, no longer intending to behave well in front of the other party.
Anyway, he already has Liu Jingjing now.
His attitude was obvious to everyone, and Ye Guosheng and Zhao Qiufen looked helpless.
In fact, they felt that Kong Jia was more suitable for life than the thin Liu Jingjing.
But even if their son doesn't like it, there's nothing they can do about it.
Just when Mrs. Wang wanted to speak to ease the embarrassment, Kong Jia continued: "Can you carry a pole like this?"
The eyes looking at Ye Dong were full of doubts.
"Who are you looking down on? I'm a man!" Ye Dong felt that he was being provoked and retorted loudly.
Kong Jia sneered, "Who doesn't know how to brag? I don't believe it!"
Ye Dong was so stimulated that he actually rolled up his arms, rolled up his sleeves, and picked up the pole to get water.
Not only Mrs. Wang did not expect such a scene, even Ye Ning did not expect it.
But Kong Jia was still confronting him, "I'll go with you to see if you can do it. But don't be afraid. If you can't hold on halfway, I can help you carry it back!"
Ye Dong's face flushed red, and there was only one thought left in his mind, that is, he must not let a woman despise him.
In this way, he picked up the pole, followed by Kong Jia, and they walked out together.
"Hehe, hehe." Mrs. Wang smiled dryly. After being a matchmaker for so many years, this was the first time she encountered such a situation.
Ye Ning looked at the two people leaving, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
"Aunt Wang, what conditions do Kong Jia's family want?"
Mrs. Wang, Ye Guosheng, and Zhao Qiufen all looked at her.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ye Dong is attracted to Liu Jingjing, so there is no need to talk about Kong Jia.
