Chapter 18 as you wish

Getting up early in the morning, Fatty Zhang still maintains the habit of many years, carrying the birdcage to the tea shop, sometimes passing by Boss Wei, and saying hello because of his colleagues.Boss Wei is diligent and frugal, and never goes to tea shops, but Fatty Zhang must invite him to have tea this day, because it is inconvenient to talk about it in front of Ah Qiao about being a matchmaker. Stepping into the store, he straightaway explained the purpose of his visit. Boss Wei felt quite sudden, so he had the intention of saying goodbye.At this moment, Ah Qiao came to deliver breakfast for her father, a bowl of tofu paste, a ball of steamed rice, and seeing Boss Zhang greeted sweetly: "Good morning, Uncle Zhang! Have you had any dim sum?"

Fatty Zhang replied immediately, looking at her from head to toe, it was a bit like a blind date, which made Ah Qiao a little embarrassed.But the guest hadn't answered, so it was inconvenient to turn away, so he turned his head away to avoid Fatty Zhang's staring eyes. "Aqiao!" Fatty Zhang asked, "How old are you?" "Seventeen." "Of course my birthday is the seventh day of July. What's the time?" Ah Qiao was shocked!When I came to the door early in the morning, I came to ask about the horoscope of time, what are you doing if you are not a matchmaker for yourself?Thinking about it like this, I immediately thought of Ah Xiang, and immediately panicked! "Who wants you to be a matchmaker?" She murmured to herself, and hurried to the back, looking for her mother and asking, "Why did Fatty Zhang come here so early in the morning?"

"Which Fatty Zhang?" "Which one else? Isn't it Fatty Zhang, who is a colleague and enemy!" "He's here? I don't know!" "Mother!" Ah Qiao said as she tugged at her clothes, "Fatty Zhang doesn't know what's on his mind. He asked about his birthday and the time. I—" She paused and said, "I'm not married! It doesn't matter. People come and talk." This said, the mother was refreshed, she didn't know what kind of person Fatty Zhang was as a matchmaker for her daughter, so she said at that time: "Don't make a mess first! Let me ask."

Seeing her mother's expression of interest, A-Qiao was very disappointed and anxious.She was thinking in her heart that this body already belonged to her, and her mother knew it, and her usual speech and attitude towards Ah Xiang vaguely regarded him as a "son-in-law", so not only did she know who she belonged to, but also this person was her. Favorite.That being the case, why bother to "ask" again?Isn't it an old fool who doesn't understand the truth! The bitter thing is that he can't say what he said in his heart, and he can't remind her with any hints.In desperation, she could only act like a baby, grabbing her mother's clothes and not letting go.

"Don't ask! Dogs can't get ivory out of their mouths, so there's nothing to ask." "It's okay to ask. What are you doing like this?" The mother and daughter argued, stalemate, and followed suit, but Boss Wei accepted Fatty Zhang's invitation because of his sympathy. Boss Zhang has gone to tea." This time Aqiao was even more anxious.The original intention was to ask my mother to call my father in, and take care of me: If Fatty Zhang comes to be a matchmaker, don't bother him.If you don't want to say something urgent, you have wasted time in vain.Going to have tea together now is of course a matchmaker.Although the marriage is the order of the parents, and the father can be the master of seven points, if you just listen to Zhang Fatty's rhetoric in a tea shop, it will be an unacceptable hatred for a lifetime.

The thought was as fast as lightning, and when it came to this point, Ah Qiao blurted out: "Father! Please come in, Mother has something important to say." Boss Wei came back after hearing this.His wife asked him: "Is Fatty Zhang here to be a matchmaker for Ah Qiao?" Before Boss Wei could answer, Ah Qiao said, "Who wants him to be a matchmaker? I'm not going to marry." "Huh!" Boss Wei looked at his wife and then at his daughter, really confused, "Why did you think of this?" Aqiao has good ears and quick thoughts, and immediately asked eagerly: "Then, what is he doing here?"

"He said he wanted to talk to me about a deal." "Business?" asked his wife, "is it hard to talk in the store?" "That's what I said too. He said he must drink tea when he wakes up in the morning, otherwise he will lose energy. It doesn't matter if I accompany him to eat once." "Okay, okay!" Aqiao pushed her father, "Please, old man! But, we have to talk about business, not anything else." I went there for two hours and didn't come back.A-Qiao was a little muttering in her heart, so she asked her little apprentice to visit Fatty Zhang quietly at the tea shop that Fatty Zhang would visit every day.After turning around for a while, Fatty Zhang and Boss Wei were not there.

This looks suspicious.By the middle of the day, Boss Wei was still nowhere to be seen.The mother and daughter waited for a long time and couldn't wait to come back, so they had to have lunch first.As soon as he picked up the chopsticks, Boss Wei came back, his face flushed and smiling. Aqiao was both relieved and complained, "Where did you go?" She complained, "I didn't come back for dinner!" "Fatty Zhang invited me to drink. I enjoyed the drink." "Why are you happy? The business negotiation was successful?" Aqiao asked, "What kind of business is it?"

"Not only about business, but also about other things. It's a big deal!" Boss Wei sat down and said with a smile, "You guessed right, Fatty Zhang is here to match our daughter." Hearing this, Ah Qiao's hands and feet became cold, and she threw herself on her mother's shoulder, trembling all over. Boss Wei and his wife were both shocked and amazed!Asked her what was going on, but she seemed unwilling to explain clearly, just sat down reluctantly, and stared at her father blankly. After all, Mo Ruomu, the daughter-in-law, guessed what was on her mind after all, and hurriedly said to her husband: "Fatty Zhang is a matchmaker, don't make random promises to him."

"Why didn't you agree?" "You promised me! What kind of family is it, what does the bridegroom look like?" "What does the bridegroom look like, why should I say? You see it every day." When mentioning the people he sees every day, the first thing that comes to mind is Runsheng, a boy from the Jianbi fruit shop. He is flattering and decent.He has a "stunt skill". When a customer comes to buy a raw pear and needs to peel it, Runsheng dances two flat-headed and thin-backed fruit knives in his hand, spinning like flying. In the blink of an eye, the pear is peeled cleanly and the pear skin grows long. strip.A Qiao loves to watch his kung fu the most, and he also loves to see A Qiao's smiling and gazing expression.Once, it was obvious that he lost his hand, and he cut off a small finger, which became a joke on the street.Suspecting this talk, Ah Qiao has always avoided him since then, but they are so close to each other that they can't help seeing each other every day. Runsheng is highly valued by his boss, so of course he might come to propose marriage.

The second thing that comes to mind is Xiao Kai from the scented wax shop across the street, he was born with a good-looking talent, and he is well-matched, but unfortunately he can't take off his hat all the year round because he is dysentery.Ah Qiao gets tired of thinking about it, so she quickly put it aside and think about it again. At this thought, he thought of Ah Xiang, and his face turned red and his heart beat.It's hard to ask, but fortunately there is her mother, "Which one is it?" She asked her husband. "Which one else, of course it's Ah Xiang!" As soon as the word "Xiang" was uttered, Ah Qiao got up suddenly and hid in, her steps were extremely light.Boss Wei was stunned for a while, then laughed. "What are you laughing at? Tell me quickly! Why did Ah Xiang ask Fatty Zhang to be a matchmaker? What did he say? How do you answer him? Tell us from the beginning." After this lecture, even Ah Qiao, who was "listening to the wall", was all satisfied and burst into tears of joy, and there was a saying in his heart: "Ah Xiang is destined to have a noble man, and he met a boss like Hu Daotai!"
