Chapter 219 Leave the matter of finding a partner to a professional matchmaker
Friday, April 21, 2023.
Noon, a restaurant in Hangzhou.
It was a rare occasion that Ling Li did not have lunch with her father. The one who ate with her was Cheng Guoan.
Ever since Jiang Feng, a great matchmaker, helped match the two of them, Ling Li and Cheng Guoan had met every day, either having lunch or dinner together.
After several days in a row, the two of them became familiar with each other.
"Lily, you don't have to work tomorrow, Saturday, right?" Cheng Guoan asked.
Ling Li hummed and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, I'll have a rest tomorrow and the day after."
Cheng Guoan took a sip of tea and watched Ling Li boldly send out an invitation: "I want to go camping at Camp Tiaoxi Camp in Little Ancient City tomorrow. Can I invite you to go with me?"
Ling Li glanced at him and asked: "Where is this small ancient city camp Tiaoxi camp?"
Cheng Guoan was a little nervous, but he forced a calm face and replied: "Camp Tiaoxi Camp is located in the Xiaogucheng Village Scenic Area, Jingshan Town, XX District. It has complete supporting facilities, including tents, blankets, pillows, night lights, sleeping bags, etc. for overnight stay
Equipment rentals are available, and you can also find small camping equipment such as fishing rods, tables and chairs, and the experience is quite good.
Of course, we can also bring these ourselves.
The scenery here is beautiful, Beitiao Creek flows slowly, smooth pebbles are piled on the shore, there is a burning bonfire at your feet, you can see the bright starry sky above your head, there are also delicious barbecues and open-air movies..."
Ling Li waited for Cheng Guoan to finish describing, then nodded slowly and said: "Okay, let me see your fishing skills tomorrow. You should make the fish you just caught into grilled fish. It should have a different taste."
"Okay, look at me tomorrow. As long as there is a fish in the river, I will definitely be able to catch it."
Speaking of fishing, Cheng Guoan's face was full of confidence, and then he asked: "Lily, when you get off work in the afternoon, how about we have dinner together and then go buy camping equipment together?"
Ling Li nodded and said: "Okay!"
…
Bay Province.
A certain city.
Two beauties, one old and one young, were discussing where to travel during the summer vacation.
This is a mother and daughter. The mother's name is Liu Yunqing. She is 37 years old, divorced and a high school teacher.
My daughter, Yang Qi'e, is 13 years old and in the sixth grade of elementary school.
"Daughter, as long as your junior high school basic academic ability test scores are excellent, mom will take you wherever you want to go during the summer vacation." In order to encourage her daughter, Liu Yunqing made a promise.
Yang Qi'e's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Liu Yunqing smiled and said: "Of course it's true. Could my mother still lie to you?"
Yang Qi'e said excitedly: "Then I'm going to Guic City in Gui Province. I heard from my grandpa that our ancestors moved from Guic City to Bay Province. The mountains and rivers there are unparalleled in the world and are very beautiful."
Liu Yunqing nodded and said, "Okay, no problem. As long as your junior high school basic academic ability test scores are excellent, then when the holiday comes, I will take you to Guic City in Guizhou Province to have a few days of fun."
Yang Qi'e said excitedly: "Mom, then we will make an agreement."
Liu Yunqing smiled and said, "It's a deal."
…
There is nearly 2,000 kilometers from Jingui City to the provincial capital of Guizhou Province. It would be too hard to go all the way without taking a break for such a long distance.
Therefore, Jiang Feng and Qu Wenhua took turns driving, and when they arrived at the provincial capital of Hunan Province, they stopped to rest for the night.
The next day, after having breakfast, we continued driving.
When entering Gui Province, Jiang Feng asked with a smile: "Grandpa Qu and Grandma Qu, this must be your first time to our Gui Province, right?"
Grandma Qu sighed: "Yes, I have never been to Guangxi Province for decades!"
Grandpa Qu said: "We have been to Guangdong Province, which is next door to Guizhou Province, two or three times."
Jiang Feng said with a smile: "This is normal. Our country has 34 provincial-level administrative regions. There are not many people who can travel to these 34 provincial-level administrative regions. There are always some provinces that have never been to them in their lives."
Qu Wenhua said: "This is also my first time here. What impressed me most about Gui Province are Liu B City and Gui C City. One is world-famous for its screw noodles, and the other is world-famous for its landscapes."
Jiang Feng sighed: "I can't help it. The provincial capital of Guizhou Province really doesn't have much presence in the country. The main reason is that the economy is too backward. If it hadn't formed the 'Guangdong and Guangxi' with Guangdong Province, it would have absorbed a little bit of Guangdong Province.
The reputation of Guizhou Province is probably even lower than it is now!
Your Jiangsu Province is still very good. Its total GDP ranks second only to Guangdong Province. Its per capita GDP ranks third only to Beishang. Moreover, its development is balanced, and each city is more capable if taken individually. It is really true.
Too strong."
These words made the Qu family’s grandfather and grandson smile with joy. This is indeed something they are proud of. Although Guangdong Province’s total GDP has ranked first in the country for 33 consecutive years, its per capita GDP is still worse than that of Suzhou Province.
It’s far away!
Moreover, the urban development in Guangdong Province can be said to be polarized. There are trillion-dollar cities like Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan and Dongguan, and there are passer-by cities like Yunchaohe and Shanmei whose economic strength is not worth mentioning.
Chatting all the way, from the ranking of total GDP and per capita GDP of each province, to the ranking of total GDP and per capita GDP of each country.
After talking about GDP, it was inevitable to talk about the military strength of each country. The few of them talked about whatever came to mind.
Before we knew it, we arrived at the provincial capital of Guangxi Province.
…
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
XX Hotel.
Jiang Feng, brother and sister, invited the Qu family to dinner here.
The moment he met Jiang Xue in person, Qu Wenhua was like Duan Yu meeting the fairy sister. To exaggerate, his mouth was almost drooling. Love at first sight was not enough to describe his love for Jiang Xue.
Those fiery eyes made even the well-spoken Jiang Xue a little unable to bear it.
Although Qu Wenhua acted as if he had never seen a woman before, Jiang Xue's first impression of him was still okay.
After all, no one knows better than her what level her brother is in terms of marriage. Since the man in front of her was personally chosen by her brother, she doesn't have to think about anything, as long as she likes him.
Qu Wenhua's appearance is on the same level as Jiang Feng's handsome guy, and he also has Jiang Xue's aesthetic sense, so he is naturally very pleasing to the eye.
With an extreme matching value of 97 points, that’s really no joke.
After the two parties exchanged greetings, Qu Wenhua got into full swing and started chatting with Jiang Xue.
Grandpa Qu and Grandma Qu had never seen their eldest grandson being so interested in a girl. They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
They are also extremely satisfied with this girl Jiang Xue. Her body and appearance are the best choice, her ability to deal with people is also extraordinary, and her career is far ahead of her grandson's.
If my eldest grandson can marry her back as his wife, it will really be a blessing cultivated in his previous life.
"Grandpa Qu, Grandma Qu, this white-cut chicken is one of the signature dishes of this restaurant. It's fresh, tender, authentic, and very delicious. Especially the prepared dipping sauce is a must-have. Try it.
The talisman is not to my liking." Jiang Feng introduced with a smile.
"Well, then we have to try it."
Grandpa Qu and Grandma Qu both picked up a piece of chicken with their chopsticks, then dipped it in the dipping sauce and tasted it.
"Hey, this tastes really good. The chicken is neither hard nor woody. It's fragrant and tender. Even people with bad teeth can bite it. The dipping sauce has an unforgettable aroma." Grandpa Qu was full of praise.
said.
Grandma Qu also praised her again and again, saying she had never eaten such delicious plain-cut chicken.
Next, Jiang Feng kept asking the two elders to eat, and after waiting for the food to pass, he said: "Grandpa Qu, Grandma Qu, because my eldest brother is having a wedding banquet at his hometown in the countryside on May 1st, so my parents have been very busy recently.
Please don’t be offended that I can come to meet you and my two elders.”
"Master Jiang, you are so polite." Grandpa Qu said with a smile.
"My eldest brother is getting married. I wonder where my eldest sister-in-law is from?" Grandma Qu asked.
Jiang Feng replied: "My sister-in-law's hometown is also from our Bailiang County. She is currently working here in the provincial capital and is a doctor."
Grandma Qu praised: "It's good to be a doctor. Everyone gets sick. Anyone who has been to the hospital knows how troublesome it is to go to the hospital. Having a doctor at home can provide a lot of convenience."
Jiang Fei smiled and said: "Doctors can indeed do it, but they are too busy at work and are overloaded every day, and the holidays are so short that they can be ignored."
Grandma Qu nodded and said: "This is true. I have a relative whose child is also a doctor. It is common for him to stay away from home for several days when he is busy."
Next, the brothers greeted Grandpa Qu and Grandma Qu.
As for Qu Wenhua and Jiang Xue, the two of them became more and more speculative as they chatted, just like Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu at the Heroes Conference, completely immersed in their world.
…
at the same time.
Camp Tiaoxi campground in the small ancient town of Hangzhou.
In front of the two connected small tents, there was a rented table filled with various barbecues, the most conspicuous of which was the large grilled fish in the middle.
Cheng Guoan caught this grilled fish in the afternoon, and then asked the camp's barbecue master to help grill it.
Ling Li accompanied Cheng Guoan to eat barbecue and drink beer, and looked at the small tents and a large number of tourists nearby. It felt really novel.
"How about it? You have never experienced this kind of camping life, right?" Cheng Guoan asked with a smile.
