Chapter 166 The Old Lady Wants to Be a Matchmaker
After Liu Xiuxiu finished drinking the chicken soup, He Yushui took the empty lunch box out of the ward and went outside to wash it. At this time, the old lady looked at He Yuzhu with a curious expression on her face. She asked, "Young man, that was your sister just now, right? How old is she?"
He Yuzhu turned his head, looked at the old lady, and replied with a smile: "It's my sister, she is 16 years old this year."
The old lady listened and nodded, then asked, "Has your sister graduated? Does she have a partner now?" There was a hint of concern and curiosity in her tone, and it was obvious that she was very interested in He Yushui's situation.
He Yuzhu listened to the old lady's question and felt a little alert. He glanced at the old lady and found that she and her daughter-in-law were dressed very elegantly and did not look like people with any malicious intentions.
So, he let down his guard and replied, "My sister just graduated and was still looking for a job, but when she knew my wife was going to have a baby, she took the initiative to come over and take care of her. As for a partner, she is still young and is not in a hurry to find one."
After hearing He Yuzhu's answer, the old lady's eyes flashed with admiration. She looked at He Yuzhu and thought to herself: This child is really good, he has a sense of responsibility and knows how to take care of his family.
She couldn't help but ask again: "Does your sister have a boyfriend?"
He Yuzhu was a little surprised when he heard the old lady's words, but he also understood that she was well-intentioned. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, my sister is still young and hasn't thought about these things yet."
After hearing He Yuzhu's answer, the old lady did not give up. A sly look flashed in her eyes, and she said to He Yuzhu with a smile: "Young man, how about I find a matchmaker for your sister?"
As she spoke, she observed He Yuzhu's expression, fearing that he would refuse directly. Seeing that He Yuzhu did not express his opinion immediately, the old lady quickly added:
"There is a young man in our compound. He is 20 years old and works as a policeman in the Red Star Police Station. He is also a team leader. He looks energetic and has a stable job. If you are interested, I can help you arrange a meeting."
He Yuzhu frowned slightly after hearing this. He didn't want to agree to the old lady's proposal easily. But looking at the old lady's expectant eyes, he couldn't refuse directly.
So he thought about it and said, "Auntie, do you think this is okay? My sister will be back soon and I'll ask her opinion. If she has no objection, we can make another appointment to meet."
After hearing what He Yuzhu said, the old lady smiled with satisfaction. She nodded and said, "Okay, this matter does need to be asked to the person involved. But I believe your sister will definitely like it. That boy is really good."
As she spoke, the old lady couldn't help but praise the young man and was obviously very satisfied with this matchmaker.
He Yuzhu looked at the old lady's excitement and couldn't help but feel a little curious. He thought, maybe he could really ask his sister for her opinion, maybe she would really like it.
The old lady's daughter-in-law had been paying attention to the conversation between the old lady and He Yuzhu from the beginning. She wanted to interrupt several times, but was always interrupted by the close conversation between the two.
At this moment, seeing that the two had finally finished their conversation, she quickly took advantage of He Yuzhu and the others not paying attention to this side and asked in a low voice:
"Mom, why are you matchmaking for someone again? You didn't tell Aunt Huang this time. What if one side agrees and the other side disagrees? What should we do then?"
The old lady glanced at her daughter-in-law and gave her a calming look. Then she spoke slowly with a bit of confidence in her voice: "Do you think I am the kind of person who has no sense of propriety?"
The daughter-in-law heard this and muttered to herself, "You are." She thought, didn't the old lady make enough mistakes in the matchmaking before?
That time, she didn't explain it clearly to the man, and ended up offending her good friend of many years. But she didn't dare to say it openly, and could only keep it in her heart.
The old lady saw her daughter-in-law's hesitant expression and understood something. She coughed unconsciously and then said in a serious tone:
"Okay, okay, why do you have so many things to worry about? Really! I know how to do things in moderation, so you don't have to worry."
Although the old lady said so, the daughter-in-law was still a little worried. She knew that the old lady was kind-hearted, but sometimes this kind of kindness would bring some unnecessary troubles. She just hoped that this matchmaking would go smoothly and there would be no more problems.
