1952: Walking through Nantongluo Alley

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

As soon as I passed through the hanging flower gate and arrived at the central courtyard, I saw Sha Zhu running towards the Jia family excitedly.

At this time, Sha Zhu was only 18 years old, and his appearance was almost the same as in the TV series, and he still looked so old.

Actually, it’s not Shazhu’s fault that he looks old.

It was his father who ran away with the White Widow, leaving him and his sister to depend on each other. If it weren't for the deaf old lady who brought them food from time to time, they would have starved to death outside.

Fate had given him a burden that was unbecoming of his age, but Heaven, seeing this, could not bear it and gave him a slightly more mature appearance...

"Shazhu, Shazhu, why are you running to Jia's house in such a hurry?" Chen Xiao waved his hand to stop Shazhu.

"It's Brother Chen Xiao. Brother Dongxu is going on a blind date today, and I'm anxious to see his new bride. I wonder if she's pretty..."

As he spoke, Sha Zhu chuckled, and then liquid seemed to seep out from the corner of his mouth, and he wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

After hearing this, Chen Xiao was shocked.

It turns out that today is Jia Dongxu's blind date day.

I just don’t know if it’s Qin Huairu.

"Brother Chen Xiao, if you don't go, I'll leave first." Before he finished speaking, Sha Zhu ran towards the Jia family.

Just as he ran to the window of Jia's house and was about to look in, Jia Zhang came out with the matchmaker, followed by a girl.

Because Jia Zhang and the matchmaker were blocking his view, Chen Xiao couldn't see the girl's appearance clearly.

At this moment, the voice of the system sounded in my mind.

[Activation conditions appear...]

[Activation conditions loading... 30%... 50%... 99%... Loading successfully...]

[Intercepting Qin Huairu will successfully activate the system...]

A series of voices rang in Chen Xiao's mind.

Then the corners of Chen Xiao's mouth rose slightly.

"Intercepting Qin Huairu, huh?... This activation system condition is acceptable."

"Other hosts, after traveling through time for 62 years, would dare to drool over the flabby and three-child-bearing Qin Huairu, and even marry her home to warm her bed."

"And when I traveled to the year 52, Qin Huairu was still a virgin. If I don't intercept her, wouldn't it be a waste of such a great opportunity?"

"Besides, I am also confident that I can completely subdue Qin Huairu and make her obey my orders..."

At this time, Jia Zhang, who had just gone out, saw Sha Zhu lying on the window of her house and peeking inside, and her face gradually became ugly.

Then she picked up the broom beside the door and walked towards Shazhu angrily.

"What are you doing, you idiot? Are you planning to steal something from my house?"

When he heard Jia Zhang's voice, Sha Zhu was so frightened that his whole body shuddered. He stepped back and started to explain.

"Aunt Zhang, how dare I steal your things? I heard that Brother Dongxu is going on a blind date, and I wanted to come and see what his new wife looks like."

"What does she look like? I want to ask the deaf old lady to find you a wife. Hasn't she always been very good to you and your sister?"

Sha Zhu smiled at Jia Zhang.

Although the deaf old lady was very nice to the two brothers on weekdays, she would definitely not agree to let them get married.

After all, marrying a wife costs a lot of money, and some girls have even started to ask for the three major items.

How could the deaf old lady have so much money? Even if she did, she wouldn’t give it to Sha Zhu.

"Go away, go away, stay away. If you dare to peek and ruin my Dongxu's good deeds again, I will peel off your skin!!"

After driving away Sha Zhu, Jia Zhang walked to the matchmaker with a flattering look on her face, looked at Qin Huairu carefully for a few more times, and then pulled the matchmaker aside.

"Aunt Wang, I quite like this girl. Not only is she pretty, but she also has a big butt. You can tell she's good at giving birth."

"It's a pity that I have a rural household registration..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jia Zhang looked up at the matchmaker, then rubbed her shoulder.

"As you know, my Dongxu is now an apprentice at the steel mill. He earns 16 yuan a month, plus a 2 yuan food allowance, which makes a total of 18 yuan a month. He also has Yi Zhonghai as his apprentice, so his future is limitless."

In her words, Jia Zhang was bragging about her son and expressing her dissatisfaction with Qin Huairu's rural household registration.

How could the matchmaker Aunt Wang not know this?

But when it comes to marriage, it's all about being a good match, with both talent and appearance.

Jia Dongxu had good conditions, with a city hukou, and since his father had passed away, he would have to hold one less funeral in the future.

However, Jia Dongxu's own conditions are really too poor.

Not only is he only 56 meters tall, but he is also very sick, like a useless person who has smoked opium for several years.

She had introduced many girls to Jia Dongxu before, but none of them were satisfied with Jia Dongxu's appearance. Only this time, Qin Huairu from the countryside could reluctantly agree.

Aunt Wang thought for a while and then replied.

"Auntie, look at what you're saying. What's wrong with having a rural household registration? I'll always have the opportunity to get an urban household registration after I marry into your Jia family."

"Besides, Dongxu is not young anymore and it's time for him to get married. I've found so many girls for Dongxu before, but he didn't like any of them. Only this time was Dongxu willing to talk to Qin Huairu for so long."

"They're a good match, in my opinion."

Jia Zhang frowned. How could she not know that the matchmaker was speaking in a sarcastic way?

What do you mean by the Dongxu introduced before looks down on others? It’s because others look down on his Jia Dongxu, okay?

Without saying a word, he just left after meeting the girl.

Seeing Jia Zhang rubbing her hands in confusion, the matchmaker patted her shoulder.

"I'm leaving now. If you've made up your mind, please let me know the next day and we can go directly to Qinjia Village to propose marriage."

"Qin Huairu, let's go."

After saying that, the matchmaker took Qin Huairu, who was standing at the door, away from the Jia family.

Only then did Chen Xiao see Qin Huairu's appearance clearly. She was wearing a small cotton-padded jacket with floral patterns, and two ponytails on her head that hung down in front of her chest. Her slightly chubby face was slightly flushed.

Qin Huairu also noticed Chen Xiao's gaze, her little face suddenly turned red, and then she turned her head to the side and quickened her pace to walk towards the courtyard with the matchmaker.

After sending the matchmaker away, Jia Zhang snorted coldly, threw the broom by the door, turned around and went back into the house.

"This country girl is worthy of my Dongxu? Dream on!!!"

Little did he know that Jia Dongxu in the room had already been fascinated by Qin Huairu's beauty.

He lay on the bed, giggling, and from time to time he rolled around on the bed with the quilt in his arms.

"No matter whether you are worthy or not, I, Chen Xiao, will definitely snatch this Qin Huairu away!"

After saying that, Chen Xiao rode his bicycle to chase the matchmaker and Qin Huairu.
