Chapter 149 Promise
Chapter 149 Promise
"It's been so long, why haven't the Zhou family come to open the door yet?" Matchmaker Zhang looked a little unhappy.
Normally, whoever needed a matchmaker would come to her for help, but today she was turned away by the Zhou family.
"Who said it wasn't? The Zhou family is not a good family." Someone in the crowd quickly echoed.
Of course, there were also those who were sensible. "Aren't the doors of the Zhou family locked? I guess they are not at home. Why don't you come back another day, Matchmaker Zhang?"
Matchmaker Zhang glared at the person who spoke with displeasure, and silently remembered the person in her heart. If she met her family in the future to discuss marriage, she would definitely have a good talk with them.
Seeing that Matchmaker Zhang's face looked strange, a smart person immediately stepped out from the crowd.
"Matchmaker Zhang, the sun is out now. We don't know when the Zhou family will be back. Why don't you go to my house for a cup of tea and wait for a while?"
Matchmaker Zhang immediately gave him an approving look and said, "It's really not nice to just stand at someone's door like this. So, let's go to your house and have a seat first."
The man immediately became happy and quickly walked to the front to lead the way, with an attitude as nice as possible.
Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the people who had gathered dispersed.
The Zhou family was still picking fruits on their own.
Because most of the fruits nearby had been picked, they had to go further inside.
Therefore, we went down the mountain much later than usual today.
"Third sister-in-law, do you feel anything strange?" Zhou Yue looked around in confusion.
Although it is dinner time, there is no one in the village. This is too strange.
"Maybe they are afraid of the heat and have hidden in the house." Bai Zhizhi didn't think there was anything wrong.
Compared to caring about those trivial things, she cares more about making money.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it." Zhou Yue pulled the backpack on her back and quickly followed her third sister-in-law's pace.
Each of them was carrying something heavy, and they just wanted to get home and sit down to rest, so they didn't notice that someone was looking at them from the courtyard wall.
As soon as the child of the family where Zhang the matchmaker was staying saw the Zhou family coming back, he immediately ran home.
Almost as soon as the Zhou family opened the door and walked into the yard, before they had time to take off the things on their backs, Zhang the matchmaker arrived.
Although the family didn't follow in, they were hiding outside the door and peeking around.
Suddenly a stranger appeared in the yard. Bai Zhizhi frowned slightly, "Who are you looking for?"
"Oh, of course I'm here to find your family and make the decision." Matchmaker Zhang said with an exaggerated smile.
"I'm here to bring good news to your family."
Qian heard the noise in the yard and slowly walked out of the kitchen.
When he saw clearly who was in the yard, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Matchmaker Zhang, how come you have time to come here today?" Qian greeted her politely.
Matchmaker Zhang didn't treat herself as a stranger. She took two steps forward and grabbed Qian's arm. "Hey, my dear sister, I came here today to bring you good news. You must thank me."
Qian pulled her arm away uncomfortably, the confusion on her face growing even more intense. "What kind of happy event could there be in my family?"
Although the others didn't know what was going on, they all pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
"How can there be no happy news? But it is a great happy news. Sister, if you knew it, you would definitely be happy." Matchmaker Zhang was still talking to herself and laughing exaggeratedly.
Qian looked a little unhappy, but it was not easy to interrupt her.
This kind of person is at least difficult to deal with, and may cause trouble to others in the future, so the relationship cannot be made too awkward.
"I really don't understand what you mean. Why don't you just tell me directly?" Seeing that she had almost finished laughing, Qian said.
Matchmaker Zhang seemed to have triggered a key word, and she covered her lips with her handkerchief and laughed, "I know that my elder sister has a beautiful girl at home. So, today I am here to announce the wedding of this girl."
"My girl's happy event?" Qian subconsciously glanced at her youngest daughter.
Her daughter was indeed old enough, but because of the birthmark on her face, no one was willing to meet her, which was why her marriage was delayed. How come someone suddenly came to propose marriage?
