Chapter 760 Matchmaker
At this time, Suning was walking aimlessly on the streets of this important city in the Northeast. Looking at the peaceful homes with thousands of lights around him, Suning had a completely different feeling. Although he didn't understand why the "system" was so fond of "The World", Suning had to passively accept this fact.

In 1969, Suning was just a 17-year-old boy and had not yet been assigned to work in a wood processing factory. Although Suning could also choose to go to the countryside as an educated youth, Suning was not prepared to live such a meaningless life, because going to the countryside as an educated youth was really too hard, and he had to endure all kinds of psychological torture. This was not the life Suning wanted.

In fact, the drama "The World" tells the story of many completely different lives. There are Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin who have achieved success in the business world, there are also ambitious young people like Zhou Bingyi who choose to pursue a career in politics, and of course there are intellectuals like Zhou Rong whose minds are full of flowers and moonlight. But at this time, no life can arouse Su Ning's desire. At this moment, Su Ning is like an old monk who has seen through the world.

The last time Suning was in "The World", he was just a little white rabbit who knew nothing. He did not have the current system binding and omnipotent space world. At the same time, because Suning has experienced too many worlds, he has already formed a completely different mentality. Instead, he feels that an ordinary life is the most meaningful.

Wandering aimlessly, Suning somehow walked to the Jichun Cinema, and then saw Zheng's mother selling popsicles and candied haws in the snow, and Guangming sitting on the steps with two big snotty noses, and of course Zheng Juan who was standing beside Zheng's mother to help. At this time, Zheng Juan was just an innocent girl, like a newly ripe red apple, tempting Suning all the time.

"The World" is a very colorful world, and there are naturally many good women suitable for marriage. However, looking at the innocent and beautiful girl in front of him, Suning is still ready to establish some connection with her. You must know that if you don't take what God gives you, you will suffer the consequences.

"Auntie, help me get a popsicle."

"Young man, we only have cream ones left. Two cents."

"Okay! Here's the money."

At this time, Suning Shuang Express gave Zheng's mother two cents, then took the cream popsicle and licked it directly. If you ask why you eat popsicles in the middle of winter, it means that some people don't understand the unique arrogance of the Northeastern people. The double cold just happened to stimulate a unique subtlety.

While licking the cream popsicle in his hand, Suning looked at the girl next to him very aggressively. Zheng's mother and Zheng Juan, who were already used to seeing the people hanging out on the streets nearby, were a little unhappy. They felt that the "big-headed baby" in front of them was particularly annoying and wanted to hit this person's big head with a stick.

At this moment, a kind-looking old lady appeared out of nowhere. When she saw Zheng Juan, who was looking down shyly, she asked, "Miss, your name is Zheng Juan, right? Do you live in Taiping Hutong?"

"Ah? Auntie, how do you know me?" Zheng Juan looked up at the old lady in front of her in some surprise. She always felt that the appearance of this old lady was a little inexplicable.

"Zheng Juan, Zheng Juan's mother, my name is Aunt Gui, and I live in Guangzi section of Jichun. I have heard of your family a long time ago." At this time, the kind-looking old lady introduced them in a familiar manner, which made the confused mother Zheng and Zheng Juan show a look of understanding.

"." Zheng Juan unconsciously glanced at Su Ning, who had not left the room. At this moment, she lowered her head in embarrassment, and then greeted the old lady in an inaudible voice, "Aunt Gui, hello."

"Zheng Juan, I heard that you don't have a household registration yet?" The kind-looking old lady suddenly looked at Zheng Juan in a familiar manner and asked.

"Ah?" Zheng Juan looked at the old lady in front of her in some surprise. She really couldn't understand the purpose of this old lady who called herself Aunt Gui.

"Zheng Juan, I'm a famous matchmaker in Jichun. I can help you solve your household registration problem. I wonder if you'd like to give it a try?"

"Aunt Gui, you don't want to introduce someone to me, do you?" Zheng Juan immediately understood the other party's intention and couldn't help but look at the old lady with a surprised expression.

"That's right! This young man is your blind date. His name is Zhou Bingkun. There are five people in his family. In addition to his father and mother, he has an older brother and an older sister. His father is a skilled worker, and his brother and sister will soon be sent to the countryside to work in the fields. So Zhou Bingkun will be assigned a job soon, so that four of the five people in his family will be paid."

"Ah?" Zheng Juan and her mother looked at Suning in surprise. Suning's conditions seemed too good in this era.

"Zheng Juan, if you really marry Zhou Bingkun, it will naturally solve your household registration problem, and you will fall into a good home in the future."

"." At this time, Zheng Juan and her mother widened their eyes in shock, looking at the big boy and the matchmaker in front of them with disbelief, and suddenly felt that this world was too crazy.

"Zheng Juan, I like to be quick and decisive when it comes to matchmaking. Of course, you can also take your time to consider your relationship with Zhou Bingkun. We are very humane and respect your choice."

"." Zheng Juan did not answer the old lady in front of her, but looked at Zheng's mother in surprise.

This old lady who calls herself Aunt Gui is of course an AI robot released deliberately by Suning. Suning really didn't expect that AI robots could be used in this way one day. He was amused by his own thoughts and behaviors. Maybe the appearance of himself and the AI robot old lady was too inexplicable, so Zheng Juan did not respond to Suning and the AI robot old lady at the first time.

Zhou Rong had already returned home with Zhou Bingyi. Seeing her still furious father and her concerned mother, she sat silently by their side. The bookish Zhou Bingyi couldn't help but speak up, "Dad, I know it's hard for you to understand right now, but as a family, we should support you."

"What the hell? Support Zhou Rong? Knowing that there is a big pit ahead, are your mother and I going to do nothing?" At this time, Zhou Zhigang immediately looked at his eldest son in front of him with wide eyes, feeling that his son must have become stupid from studying too much.

"Mom and Dad, I know that your opinions and suggestions come from your life experiences, and are also based on the purpose of doing good for us, but this is just like the fable of the little horse crossing the river. Only after we try it ourselves, will it be our own life." Although he knew it was very difficult to persuade his father, Zhou Bingyi still believed that this was the only way.

"Zhou Bingyi, I know you have read a lot of books, but don't show off your knowledge in front of me." At this time, Zhou Zhigang looked at his son in front of him with disappointment for the first time. You know, Zhou Bingyi has always been the pride of his father.

"Dad, you should understand the principle that it is better to guide than to block, right? Zhou Rong is not some cat or dog. We just need to tie her up with a rope. She has her own life and choices, so as a family, we can only support her as much as possible." Zhou Bingyi still shook his head with a wry smile. He knew his stubborn sister too well.

"Zhou Bingyi, I always thought you were the pride of our Zhou family, and that you were more promising than Zhou Bingkun. But I never thought you would be so unreasonable. You really disappoint me."

"Dad, just let me go to Guizhou. I promise you that I will keep myself clean and will never have any relationship with Feng Huacheng without your and my mom's approval." After seeing that her brother Zhou Bingyi was about to fail, Zhou Rong on the side hurriedly looked at Zhou Zhigang with a pleading face.

"." Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua were shocked when they heard Zhou Rong's sudden promise to them. This was not something a little girl should say.

Zhou Zhigang knew very well that what Zhou Bingyi had just said was very reasonable. The meaning of life is nothing more than going through sorrow and joy alone. No matter how correct the guidance and advice parents give to their children, they will not be able to gain their children's recognition and understanding. At this time, Zhou Zhigang could not help but feel that his mentality was shaken and changed.

"Zhou Rong, are you really serious about this Feng Huacheng?" Zhou Zhigang looked at his precious daughter in disbelief. He couldn't figure out what happened today no matter how hard he tried.

"Yes! At first, I just admired Feng Huacheng, but after meeting him in the capital that year, we both fell in love at first sight."

"Zhou Rong, but you are only eighteen years old this year!" Zhou Zhigang looked at his daughter in front of him with great sorrow, and his voice became hoarse.

"Dad, I still want to follow my heart, otherwise I will never let it go."

"Zhou Rong, can you really keep yourself clean?" As Zhou Rong's father, he certainly knew her temper best. She would definitely run away secretly after he left, and then their Zhou family would be even more embarrassed.

"Dad, you probably know me best. I won't say anything I can't do." Hearing the softening in her father's tone, Zhou Rong looked at him with surprise and assured him. "Okay! I hope you can keep your promise today." Staring blankly at his daughter, Zhou Zhigang had no choice but to agree.

"Dad, thank you! I will never let you and my mom down." Zhou Rong, in ecstasy, immediately knelt firmly in front of Zhou Zhigang.

"Hey! What Bingkun said makes a lot of sense. I'm really an incompetent father. I didn't care enough about you before."

"Dad, you're also thinking about our family. How could the simple-minded Zhou Bingkun possibly understand you?"

"."

Seeing that his father finally agreed to let Zhou Rong try it herself, Zhou Bingyi, who didn't even dare to breathe a sigh of relief, and even Li Suhua, who was worried, felt a little relieved. However, the happy family of four did not realize that Suning was missing. Perhaps Suning had always been the one that the Zhou family chose to ignore.

Suning did not pester Zheng Juan for too long. After all, if he continued to pester her, it would be considered bullying the three of them. Some people may think that Suning's behavior was too bold. In fact, Tu Ziqiang in the original drama also had such a coincidence, and his behavior was even more unreasonable than Suning's. You must know that Tu Ziqiang only helped Zheng Juan and her daughter drive away a group of hooligans at the beginning, and then he lived in Zheng Juan's house, and then Zheng Juan had her tragic fate.

Seeing that Suning and the old lady quickly left their stall, Zheng Juan and her mother couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, with a lingering fear, Zheng's mother looked at her daughter and said, "Juan'er, don't come to help me watch the stall tomorrow. You should stay at home and paste paper boxes, so you don't have to run into this crazy street kid again."

"Okay! Mom, I'll listen to you."

"Mom, sister, I feel that this man and the matchmaker have no ill intentions." At this time, a calm voice suddenly came from behind the mother and daughter.

"Guangming, do you know this boy and the matchmaker?" Zheng Juan asked her brother with amusement.

"I don't know them! Although I can't see their faces, I can still tell that there is no evil in their voices. They are really not the same kind of people as those ruffians." Guangming has always been able to feel the hearts of others. Maybe this is the ability given to him by God.

"Guangming, do you really want your sister to get married off early?" Zheng Juan couldn't help but look at her brother in front of her jokingly.

"Ah? Sister, I didn't! I just..." As expected, Guangming hurriedly and excitedly wanted to explain, knowing that he was the one who depended on this sister the most.

"That's enough! Sister is just joking with you! Look how nervous you are." Seeing that Guangming was so nervous, Zheng Juan felt a little sorry for him.

"Sister, is this boy ugly?" Guangming finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he couldn't help but ask Zheng Juan with speculation.

"Huh? It's okay! It's just a bit overwhelming. The main reason is that his conditions are so good that I always feel a little uneasy." The main reason is that Zheng Juan feels that Suning's conditions are too good. The inferior Zheng Juan dare not believe such a good thing.

"Big head?"

The winters in Northeast China are still very cold. Many residents freeze to death every year. In the original drama, Xiao Guoqing's father was frozen to death on a pile of coal in winter. So Suning certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to wander outside all night. Moreover, he felt very uncomfortable after eating a popsicle on an empty stomach just now. He realized that he couldn't pretend like this in the future.

Suning really wanted to find a nice guesthouse to stay overnight and make his presence felt in front of his family. However, this was unrealistic in 1969. To go out and do business, one needed a letter of introduction issued by the unit. So at this time, Suning could only bite the bullet and return to Photon Film, and then pushed open the door of Zhou's house without blushing or beating his heart.

When they saw the boy who ran away from home finally returned home, the Zhou family members turned their heads away and ignored him, unwilling to say a word to this good-for-nothing guy. In fact, all of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, after all, no matter what, Suning was a member of their Zhou family.

"What? You, the boy who ran away from home, now know how to go home?" In the end, Li Suhua couldn't help but feel distressed for her youngest son, and at the same time broke the subtle tension in the family.

"Mom, I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat at home?" Suning did not respond to his mother's teasing. Instead, he sat down at the dinner table and said bluntly.

"Hmph! Why don't you starve to death, you bastard?" Li Suhua cursed with a smile in annoyance, then got up helplessly to heat up the meal for her youngest son.

The meals of ordinary people in this era are very simple, just some multi-grain steamed buns with some homemade pickled shredded radish, so soon the hungry Suning sat there and started to eat voraciously, and he didn't care about Zhou Rong's "sharp look", anyway, he had a lot of opinions about this sister, and he knew clearly that he couldn't really sit with Zhou Rong.

Afterwards, the whole family went back to sleep and rest in silence. After all, what happened today was a big and laborious matter, so naturally they had no time to pay attention to the instigator, Suning. After all, Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Bingyi would both leave the Zhou family tomorrow and go their separate ways.

Listening to the cold wind whistling outside the window, Su Ning lay on the warmed kang in Northeast China, always feeling a kind of tranquility from the depths of his soul. However, this tranquility that made Su Ning enjoy the most was soon interrupted by Zhou Bingyi, "Bingkun, what you did today was wrong. You shouldn't have revealed Zhou Rong's secret like that."

"Zhou Bingyi, do you want to see Zhou Rong fall in love with someone of your father's generation?" Su Ning immediately asked Zhou Bingyi back.

"Bingkun, that was Zhou Rong's own choice, and it's also her personal freedom."

"Freedom? Why do I only feel selfishness?"

"Zhou Bingkun, you're going a bit too far!"

"Hmph! Zhou Bingyi, a summer insect cannot talk about ice, and a well frog cannot talk about the sea. You and I will never be able to reach an agreement."

"Zhou Bingkun, why have you become so unreasonable now?" Zhou Bingyi looked at his brother in disbelief, wondering why Suning was so unreasonable today.

"Zhou Bingyi, what you said actually makes sense. You need to be the master of your own life and you also need to take your own responsibilities. I will just quietly watch you and Zhou Rong run towards a happy life." At this time, Su Ning said to Zhou Bingyi in a slightly sarcastic tone.

"Zhou Bingkun, you..." How could Zhou Bingyi not hear the sarcasm in Zhou Bingkun's words? He immediately couldn't help but feel angry again.

"Alright! Stop the you you you me me my, I'm tired now and want to sleep."

"." At this moment, Zhou Bingyi suddenly felt that his brother seemed like a different person, no longer the simple-minded and strong-limbed fool.

Soon, a slight snoring sound was heard from Suning's side, but Zhou Bingyi next to him had his eyes wide open and was not sleepy at all. Too many things happened in their Zhou family today. Although he couldn't explain the specific reasons now, he always felt that their Zhou family would no longer have the peace they once had.
