Chapter 67 - 64 Brother Jing Brother Jing
"Her? What else can she do besides working?" Zheng Shufang’s expression was a bit evasive. Her daughter didn’t go to college, and she didn’t think much of it at the time. But now when someone asks, she feels embarrassed.
When you’re young, people compare themselves to their parents and families; when you have kids, watch carefully, it’s all about comparing children!
"Does she have a partner now? I remember seeing your daughter before — she’s quite pretty. If there’s someone suitable, how about I help introduce a match for her?"
Zhang Meihua worked at a factory, where there were many unmarried young men and women. During their breaks and chats, people would often ask her to help set them up with someone.
"What kind of family background are they from? You know my family; they definitely need to have good conditions. If their family is just average, don’t bother introducing them! By the way, are there any well-off young ladies who could be a match for my son? You know my son works in Beijing — he’s so busy and still hasn’t had the time to date!"
Zheng Shufang set her mind on climbing up the social ladder. She’s especially proud of her daughter’s looks and is always dreaming of her marrying well so she too could enjoy an easy life!
"I’ll really have to look carefully then. There are truly some great matches. How about this — why don’t you give me a photo of both your son and daughter one day, and I’ll help you ask around!" Zhang Meihua, being very social, knew a lot of people. Many friends often reached out to her for matchmaking.
"That would be perfect! One of these days, I’ll bring their photos to your workplace!" Zheng Shufang was quite pleased and secretly planned a two-directional approach: after all, arranging a match wasn’t something you could guarantee on one try. Plus, as for the idea of marrying Li Si into the family, that was still just a vague possibility and far from certain!
