Chapter 31: Chen Ying Remarried
Time flies, time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Today, the Chen family is bustling with people, decorated with lanterns and colorful lights. The entire courtyard is filled with large round tables, which is slightly crowded, and each large table
The round table was full of people, men and women, old and young. Everyone was sitting around talking and laughing, their faces full of joy.
Today is a happy day for Chen Ying, the ancestor of the Chen family, and even more so for the Chen family, because today Chen Ying, the ancestor of the Chen family, is getting married again and marrying a new wife.
It turns out that just two months ago, through the introduction of matchmaker Zhang from Zhangjiacun next door, she said that a woman with children divorced her husband. Her daughter happened to be married in Zhangjiacun. This time the woman came to her daughter’s house.
I was visiting relatives and was discovered by Matchmaker Zhang.
Matchmaker Zhang has been a matchmaker all her life. When she heard that the woman was now raising a child alone, she immediately wanted to help her as a matchmaker. She also happened to know that the wife of Chen Ying, the ancestor of the Chen family in Chenjiacun, had also passed away two years ago, so she thought about how to make do with it.
them.
After asking about the woman's basic information, she also asked if she wanted to remarry. When she said she had such a plan, Matchmaker Zhang ran to Chenjiacun without stopping. When she reached the Chen family, she talked to everyone in the Chen family about it.
.
During the conversation, Matchmaker Zhang was a talkative person. She was very eloquent and talked about how good the girl was. She had so many children and she talked about how they were raised by herself. She was so capable, as if she was familiar with the woman.
Same, anyway, everyone was dizzy after hearing it, and they were completely sucked into it by Matchmaker Zhang.
Chen Ying, who was still sober, saw Matchmaker Zhang paused for a moment, looked at Matchmaker Zhang and said, "What's that girl's name?"
Matchmaker Zhang smiled when she heard this and said: "Haha~ Look at my memory, I even forgot to tell you her name. Her name is Luo Shuqin. She is really nice. Mr. Chen, do you want to go?
See you?"
Chen Ying paused after hearing this. Doesn't this have the same surname as his deceased wife? So this is God's will? God knows that I miss my wife, and now he has sent a woman with the same surname to accompany me for the rest of my life?
Everyone saw that Chen Ying did not speak, and all looked at him. At this time, Chen Yan said: "Dad, what do you think? Where is Zhang interrogating you?"
Chen Ying came to her senses from deep thought and said: "What, what did you say?"
Chen Yan said: "Zhang Wenwen asked you if you want to go see that woman."
Chen Ying heard this and said, "What do you think? I'm already this old, can people think highly of me?"
Everyone understood Chen Ying's words and knew the answer, and smiles appeared on their faces. Matchmaker Zhang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Luo Shuqin is about the same age as you, otherwise I, an old woman, wouldn't introduce it to you.
Already."
Chen Yan said: "Yes, Dad, you are very young now, how can you get old? Then go and have a look. Anyway, it doesn't mean that you must marry him after you look at it."
The two daughters-in-law of the Chen family also echoed: "Yes, dad, let's go and have a look."
Chen Ying felt relieved when he saw that his son and daughter-in-law did not object, but supported him. He stood up and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look."
…
Chen Yan and Chen Ying of the Chen family followed matchmaker Zhang to Zhang Shugen's home in Zhangjiacun. Because Luo Shuqin's daughter was married to Zhang Shugen, Luo Shuqin also happened to be at Zhang Shugen's house at this time.
Matchmaker Zhang called out before she entered the door: "Shugen, I'm here to be a matchmaker for your mother-in-law. Come out quickly and pick her up."
Everyone who was sitting around the table chatting heard someone calling Zhang Shugen, and they all looked at Zhang Shugen. Zhang Shugen blushed slightly and said, "It's matchmaker Zhang from our village. She may be introducing a partner to my mother-in-law."
Afterwards, he glanced at Luo Shuqin, who was also sitting at the table.
Luo Shuqin was stunned when she heard this and said: "Be a matchmaker for me. I just came here. Are you going to be a matchmaker for me?"
Zhang Shugen heard this and said: "Mother-in-law, didn't you meet Matchmaker Zhang this morning? Didn't she ask you if you wanted to find another partner? Didn't you agree?"
Luo Shuqin heard this and said: "I mean she has this plan, why did she call someone here so quickly?"
Zhang Shugen heard this and said: "What do you mean, mother-in-law...? How about I go and tell him that you don't want to look for me now?"
Luo Shuqin heard this and said: "Since you've already come, why do you have the nerve to ask people to leave like this? It won't sound good if you say it out loud."
Zhang Shugen smiled and said, "Then I'll invite them in." After saying that, he got up and walked outside the house.
Luo Shuqin wanted to say something else, but she choked as soon as the words reached her lips and still didn't say them out.
When Zhang Shugen came outside the house, matchmaker Zhang came over with Chen Ying and Chen Yan. Zhang Shugen hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Zhang Shen." Then he saw Chen Ying and his son shouting hurriedly: "It's brothers Chen Yingshu and Chen Yan.
Ah, come on, come on, come on, sit in the room, sit in the room."
Hearing this, Matchmaker Zhang joked: "We are all neighbors, so what are we doing outside? Let's go inside and talk."
Zhang Shugen heard this and said: "Yes~yes~yes, we are all acquaintances, don't go outside, sit in the room." After saying that, he turned sideways and made an invitation gesture and said: "Zhang Shen, Chen Shu, Brother Chen, please come inside."
The four of them came to the table that Zhang Shugen and the others had just made. Those people inside all stood up and gave way, and the whole room suddenly became lively.
After everyone had finished their greetings, Chen Ying and Chen Yan sat on a bench in front of the table. Opposite the table sat Matchmaker Zhang and Luo Shuqin, and on either side of her were Luo Shuqin's children and son-in-law.
After everyone sat down, they didn't speak, and the atmosphere gradually became dull. After all, Matchmaker Zhang had been a matchmaker for decades, how could she make the atmosphere dull? She looked at Chen Ying and his son, then turned to Luo Shuqin and said, "Sister, I
Let me introduce to you, this is Chen Ying from the Chen family in Chenjia Village next door. Next to him is his son Chen Yan. He also has three sons. They are all working outside now so they didn’t come to see you. Please don’t be offended.
"
When Luo Shuqin saw Matchmaker Zhang talking to her about introducing people, she couldn't keep silent. She smiled and said to Matchmaker Zhang, "Why should I blame them for what my sister-in-law said?"
Matchmaker Zhang smiled when she heard this and said, "Yes~yes~yes, you definitely won't blame them."
After saying that, he looked at everyone and then looked at Chen Yingdao: "Brother Chen, you want to say something, are you satisfied with our Shuqin?"
Chen Ying fell in love with Luo Shuqin as soon as she walked in. She was somewhat similar to his wife Luo Meifeng. When he heard this, his old face turned red, not knowing whether it was because of the heat or something else, and he stammered: "Fully...very...satisfied, I...
I'm very satisfied." After saying that, his face turned redder and his head lowered unnaturally.
Matchmaker Zhang also smiled when she heard this, then looked at Luo Shuqin and said, "Sister, what do you think?"
Luo Shuqin heard this and said tactfully: "How can I say this? I don't know him very well."
Matchmaker Zhang said: "You can gradually understand this, right? What about the feeling or image he gives you now?"
Luo Shuqin heard this and said: "Oh~ you said this, I thought he was quite honest and his image was not bad."
Hearing this, Matchmaker Zhang said: "That's alright. Then you two can get along more and get to know each other better."
Luo Shuqin said: "In that case, I will get familiar with him first, and the rest will depend on him."
Matchmaker Zhang was overjoyed when she heard this and said: "Brother Chen, my girl has already expressed her feelings, so just talk to her more and get to know her better."
Chen Ying heard this and said dullly: "Oh~oh~good, hehe~."
In this way, Chen Ying and Luo Shuqin, who had become acquainted once and twice, chatted together, and today is the final result of their two-month chat.
At this time, Chen Ying was as if he were a groom for the first time. His face was flushed, and his old face showed a shy expression from time to time. Sitting at this table were all the children of the Chen family and the Luo Shuqin family. The Chen family had Chen Yan.
Four brothers, and four children from the Luo family were sitting there. The entire big round table was occupied by these ten people. Chen Ying and Luo Shuqin sat side by side at the top. On the right were the brothers from the Chen family, and to the right were the Luo family.
At this time, the juniors of the two families had become familiar with each other, and they were all toasting each other, laughing and chatting about some interesting things.
This is Chen Tianming running up behind Chen Yan, pulling his clothes and calling him daddy. When Chen Yan saw his son coming, he didn't hold back. He directly held Chen Tianming on his lap and sat down, asking him
What to eat.
Chen Tianming sat on Chen Yan's lap and said nothing. He stared at the Luo family members opposite him with big eyes. He also looked at Luo Shuqin, who was sitting next to Chen Ying, and turned back to Chen Yan and said, "Dad, who is that grandma?"
"
Chen Yan knew that Chen Tianming had never met Luo Shuqin, and it was the first time that Luo Shuqin stayed in the Chen family for a long time. Although the adults in the Chen family had seen her, the children had never seen her. He looked at Chen Tianming and said: "That's
Your new grandma will be your own grandma from now on, please call her grandma."
Chen Tianming heard this and asked doubtfully: "What is a new grandma?"
When Chen Yan heard the words, he didn't know how to say it so that he could understand it, so he said: "Just like grandpa, this grandma will love you like grandpa in the future."
Chen Tianming seemed to understand when he heard this and said: "Oh~ That's it, then I have grandpa and grandma to play with me." After saying that, he looked at Luo Shuqin and said: "Grandma, can you play with me now?"
Everyone burst out laughing after hearing this. This guy is so cute. Luo Shuqin also smiled kindly and said, "Okay, I'll play with Tianming after dinner, okay?"
Chen Tianming heard this and shouted: "Okay~Okay, I want grandpa to play with us."
Everyone laughed again when they heard this, and the two elders also had smiles on their faces.
When everyone had almost eaten and drank, they all came to Chen Ying's table one by one to express congratulations again and prepare to leave. Chen Ying and the others also put down the bowls and chopsticks in their hands and stood up to say goodbye one by one.
After eating, Chen Tianming originally asked Chen Ying and Luo Shuqin to play with him, but he was persuaded by Chen Yan and others. Several members of the Luo family took Chen Tianming to play together in the room. Only then did Chen Ying and Luo Shuqin get the chance.
