Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Seeing the blind date scene of He Yuzhu and Xu Damao, the two sons in Liu Haizhong felt as if their hearts were scratched by a cat's claws. They could no longer suppress their desire and yearning for love, and expressed their wish to go on a blind date to their father.

Liu Haizhong looked at his two sons' expectant eyes, and his heart couldn't help but feel ripples.

He knows very well that in this era, marriage is not only a union of two people's emotions for young people, but also the hope and sustenance of the future of two families. Since the children have such ideas, as a father, he should naturally support them with all his strength and pave a road to a happy marriage for them.

Therefore, Liu Haizhong decided to have an in-depth and detailed communication with his two sons, trying to capture their true thoughts and needs from their words. He listened patiently, sometimes nodded in agreement, sometimes frowned to express doubt, and tried to make himself their strongest supporter and closest friend.

After understanding his two sons' ideas, Liu Haizhong strode into the lively courtyard of Matchmaker Li with a serious but expectant look on his face. In the courtyard, a few hens were leisurely pecking at the food on the ground, and occasionally there were children laughing, which complemented the lively and cheerful atmosphere of Matchmaker Li's house, forming a warm and harmonious picture.

"Oh, isn't this Mr. Liu? Which direction is the wind blowing today? It actually blew a busy man like you here?" Matchmaker Li saw Liu Hai walking into the yard at a glance. The rouge-painted face immediately smiled like a flower and greeted him warmly. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, as if it could instantly dispel the worries and sorrows in people's hearts.

Liu Haizhong cleared his throat and pretended to be calm and said, "Matchmaker Li, I've been seeing you matchmaking people up and bringing together many good couples, and I'm itching to do the same. My two boys are almost at the age to get married, and they keep talking about finding a good girl at home. So, I'd like you to help them find some suitable partners."

When matchmaker Li heard this, her eyes lit up immediately, and she clapped her hands and laughed, "Oh, this is great news! Don't worry, Uncle Liu. I dare not say anything else, but my matchmaking skills are one of the best in the whole alley. Your two boys are handsome and capable. I will take care of the marriage! I will definitely find you a good girl who is of equal status and kind-hearted."

Liu Haizhong couldn't help but smile with satisfaction when he heard this. He nodded, took out a small cloth bag from his arms, and handed it to Matchmaker Li: "This is a little gift, you keep it first. After the matter is done, there will be a generous reward." His tone was sincere and firm, as if he was assuring Matchmaker Li that he would fulfill his promise.

Matchmaker Li took the cloth bag, weighed it, and smiled even more brightly: "Uncle Liu, you are so polite. Don't worry, I will arrange it for you right away. I promise to find a good girl who is both suitable and virtuous for your boy." Her voice was full of confidence and joy, as if she had already seen the happy future of Liu Haizhong's two sons.

In this way, Liu Haizhong left the courtyard of Matchmaker Li with satisfaction. A few days later, Matchmaker Li came to Liu Haizhong's house in person. After learning about the specific situation and needs of Liu Haizhong's two sons in detail, she left in a hurry. Her figure gradually faded away in the afterglow of the sunset, leaving behind a string of crisp and pleasant laughter and a hopeful promise.

But the mysterious and hurried figure of Matchmaker Li caused quite a stir in the yard, turning the usually peaceful courtyard into a place of discussion and filled with all kinds of speculation and imagination.

At this moment, Liu Haizhong slowly walked out of the room, with a look of smugness and pride on his face, as if the news he was about to announce was more exciting than anyone had expected. He first looked around to make sure everyone's attention was focused on him, then cleared his throat, deliberately lengthened his tone, and said in an almost dramatic way: "Everyone, everyone, please be quiet for a moment, let me, an old man, say a few words."

Hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and cast their curious and expectant eyes at Liu Haizhong. A mysterious smile appeared on his lips, which showed both confidence in the secret that was about to be revealed and a beautiful vision of the children's happy life in the future. Then, he slowly spoke with a hint of excitement that was difficult to conceal: "I have good news to tell you all. The blind date for my Guangqi and Guangfu has been settled! Matchmaker Li just told me that she has found suitable partners for the two children and is waiting for us to take a look!"

This news was like a stone thrown into a lake, and it instantly caused an uproar in the courtyard. The originally calm water surface was covered with ripples, and everyone gathered around, asking Liu Haizhong for details, with curiosity and expectation written all over their faces. Even Yi Zhonghai, who was usually calm and composed and did not easily show his emotions, could not help but show a curious look at this moment, and his eyes were fixed on Liu Haizhong.

"Oh, Uncle Liu, is this true? Your two boys are going on blind dates too? Tell me quickly, what does the girl's family do? What kind of person is she?" Second Aunt asked anxiously, her eyes full of expectation and desire, as if she couldn't wait to meet the two girls who were about to become her neighbors.

Liu Haizhong couldn't help but feel even more proud when he saw everyone's enthusiastic reaction. He deliberately kept everyone in suspense, smiled but didn't say anything, and just gently waved his hand: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll tell you the details after Matchmaker Li arranges a meeting. But I can reveal one thing, the girls from these two families are both well-educated, gentle and virtuous, and they are a perfect match for our Guangqi and Guangfu, absolutely a good match!"

"That's great!" The aunt smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this. She kindly reminded him, "Uncle Liu, you have to prepare well. Don't let the children leave a bad impression when they meet for the first time. This is a matter that will affect their whole lives!"

Liu Haizhong nodded repeatedly, his face full of confidence: "Of course, of course. Are you still worried about me, Liu Haizhong, doing the job? I have already discussed with my wife that I will dress up the two children well and let them go for the blind date in high spirits. Our children can't lose face in front of others!" After saying that, he patted his chest to show his determination and confidence.
