Chapter 8: Matchmaker Ming fai 2

Su ji and da rin who were blantly ignored by huang Lin were enraged .

" how dare she ignore us ! " yelled Da rin stomping her feet on the ground .

"That bitch doesn't know what's good for her . She needs to be taught a lesson to know her place " smirked su ji with mirth pooling in her eyes making da rin shiver .

This su ji is scary ah . She needs to make sure to never get on her bad side .

********************************************

Back in the zhou's courtyard a plump woman in her fifties made her way to the middle of the house while peng shi is welcoming her attentively.

This woman is matchmaker Ming fai . Don't look Down on this plump ugly woman , for she has a very good reputation in the whole province . She matchmaked many couples for many years .

All of them are good matches . Everyone agrees that she is very good in her job . She also knows everything about everyone in the eight villages .

But if you slight her , she will make sure to blacken your children's reputation and block away any potentiel suitor .

This is why everyone respects her and attaches importance to food , showing extreme hospitality to her .

That's why even the greedy peng shi bited her lips and took out food to make a few more dishes And even one dish with meat .

"Sister Ming fai , thank you for coming to my house at last minute but as you know my son xiao bai is no longer young and needs to get married as soon as possible so please help us out "

" I see , I heard from lui zan about your son and his requests. I must say he is a promising young man and he is a farmer too .

Don't worry , I have the best match for him "

Peng shi eyes sparkled at the praise for her son . Her son is really good ah .

"A match ? Who is she ? "

" easy sister , let's eat first "

"Of course of course "

Then she turned around and started eating.

After the hearty meal , lui zan winked at matchmaker Ming fai who got the signal and opened her mouth to speak

"Sister peng shi , everyone knows that your son zhou bai deserves the best match . So I think su jia of the su family in this village is best suited for him . What do you think ?"

Peng shi face paled at the mention of su jia .

Who in the village didn't hear of su jia , the eldest daughter of the su family . But no one dares to marry her .

"S-sister Ming , su jia is truly good but you know that the su family is asking for a big bride price of 60 yuan . How can I pay that !? "

Ming fai frowned at the old woman and pursued her lips saying

"Sister peng shi , I chose su jia for your son because not only is she beautiful, she also comes from a family of farmers who are well known in the eight villages. Everyone would kill to have her as their daughter in law .

What's more her father has a good relationship with the brigade leader and the red army . Think how much face will you have if zhou bai marries her in ah "

Peng shi started thinking hard about what Ming fai said and couldn't help but believe her .

Su jia is truly perfect for her son but the bride price is a huge sum she can't get .

Lui zan who was sitting at the side saw the old lady wavering . Wasting no time , she opened her mouth to strike while the pot is hot .

"Mother , su jia is the best choice for zhou bai ah . We can't waste anymore time ."

"Lui zan , where do you think I can get 60 Yuan from ? I only have 20 yuans that I saved all my life , where could we get the 40 yuans from? Tell me ! "

Lui zan frowned a bit then said

"Mother , we will find a way to get the money soon but we need to tell matchmaker Ming fai to tell the su's about our proposal before someone else gets the bride and zhou bai loses his chance to marry ah "

"Peng shi , stop hesitating. Lui zan is right , you can get the money even if you have to borrow but you can't lose this marriage ah "

Faced with the both of them , peng shi sighed .

This is the happiness of her son . She must make sure he marries the best bride .

Then she turned around , nodding at Ming fai

"Sister Ming fai , I trust you then to tell the su's about our proposal as soon as possible "

"Yes , yes I will then I will take my leave now"

"Matchmaker Ming fai wait , I will see you out"

The two women walked out side by side till the door . Lui zan made sure there was no one before she pulled out 200 cooper coins and stuffed them in Ming fai hands .

Ming fai smiled at lui zan saying

"Lui zan ah , tell me why did you insist on su jia when you know you can't afford the bride price ? ".

Lui zan smiled saying "Sister Ming , I don't know what you are talking about "

Ming shi gave a hearty laugh leaving but not before facing the scheming woman saying

"Ah lui zan , I pity your mother in law for having a serpent like you home ah "

Lui zan merely smiled not caring about the woman's insult as if she is complimenting her.

Back at her mother in law side , lui zan put on a happy smile to the old lady then said

"Mother , you finally decided on a bride for fourth brother . He must be happy when he knows"

Peng shi looked at her daughter in law and yelled

"Where the hell will I get the 40 yuan from now ? This is no small sum !"

"Mother calm down , we will find a solution in no time . The most important thing is fourth brother happiness ah "

Lui zan who finally managed to calm the old woman smirked inside .

Finally , she will soon get rid of those pests .
