Chapter 144 Flash Marriage Couple
"Teacher Wang, we meet again." A new elderly lady greeted Teacher Wang, who was wearing a mask, as soon as she came up.

"Hello, hello." Teacher Wang's reply carried a hint of deliberate distance.

At the same time, she whispered very quickly to Zhang Zhe, "Be careful, this old lady is hard to deal with."

"This teacher looks unfamiliar. Has he/she been here before?"

"This is my first time here." Zhang Zhe smiled kindly, but he was already on guard.

The aunt spoke with great confidence, which indicated that she was certain Zhang Zhe was visiting for the first time, and further suggested that she had likely visited every time before.

That's why I could easily recognize Teacher Wang, who had come twice.

According to Ms. Wang, the first time she came was 6 months ago. If the older woman had been waiting at the matchmaking corner since then, that would be a bit scary.

Half a year is not a long time for a 30-year-old single woman, after all, 10 years have passed. But matchmaking corners are different; they are just a means, and a very inefficient one at that.

The fact that the woman wasted half a year here shows that either she couldn't think of any other way, or she was in a very, very urgent situation.

"Teacher, this is my daughter's information."

"These are our work certificates as elderly people."

"This is our family's property certificate."

"This is my daughter's graduation certificate, as well as her certificates for first-level construction engineer and cost engineer."

“She’s a bit old. This is her medical report. We have some connections, and we’ve already helped her freeze her body.”

This was the first time Zhang Zhe had encountered such a situation.

Even when applying for a job at a big company, this isn't done; it's exactly like a business negotiation.

He couldn't help but turn back to look at Teacher Wang, his eyes full of inquiry:

"Is this your reason for paying me to come here?"

[Wow, even such an outstanding girl needs to go on blind dates? My worldview is shattered!]

In the dating market, the more outstanding a woman's qualifications, the bigger the problems she faces.

This is the first time I've ever seen someone freeze to death like that; it's so objectifying.

In Qingdao, a first-class construction engineer or a first-class construction worker should earn an annual salary of 30+ yuan.

[This woman is more capable than most men, so why did she still get married?]

"Auntie, there's no need to lay out all the documents. We mainly need to look at the information cards."

Zhang Zhe gestured to the older woman to put away all the reports; the scene was too extravagant, and people were recording videos behind them.

"I just want to prove that my daughter is really outstanding," the woman said while tidying up the documents. "Some teachers questioned me before."

"It's okay, I'm different from them."

"I'll believe whatever you say..." Zhang Zhe said while glancing at the woman's information.

[Female, born in 92, married in a whirlwind romance, no children, 1.6 meters tall, 48 kilograms, Bachelor's degree, full-time employee at a state-owned enterprise, honest, kind, and ambitious.]

[I have obtained Level 1 Construction Engineer and Level 1 Cost Engineer certificates]

[Physically and mentally healthy, no history of hereditary diseases, owns a house and a car with no loans, parents are employed in public institutions, no burden of retirement]

There's an unspoken rule at matchmaking corners: don't list specific salaries and assets, to avoid attracting unwanted attention from unscrupulous individuals.

But this girl practically slapped the "high income" label right in people's faces. She's a full-time employee of a state-owned enterprise, holding both a first-level construction engineer and a cost engineer certificate. She owns a house and a car, as if she's afraid people won't know how high her income is.

The reason for doing this is simple: she has been married before.

Divorce is not scary. This woman's own criteria for choosing a partner are that she can accept a divorced man without children. But a whirlwind marriage and divorce is a completely different story.

Let's look at the woman's requirements:
Seeking a man around 1.7 meters tall, with a college degree or above, stable job, good character, responsible, ambitious, and with no bad habits, in good physical and mental health, and no history of hereditary diseases, born between 85 and 95, divorced with no children or unmarried.

The requirements are very low.

There are no requirements for cars or houses, almost no requirements for education, and the age limit is also very flexible.

The conditions described above would be perfectly reasonable if they appeared on a roadside utility pole advertisement offering a large reward for a son.

Compared to the woman's own qualities, he was almost two levels below her.

"Auntie, could you tell us about your daughter's previous marriage? Why did she get divorced?"

"There's nothing to say, that man is no good." The woman's tone was somewhat indignant, as if her daughter had suffered a great injustice: "It's only because my daughter is a good person, otherwise she would have sued him for marriage fraud."

What aspect of a person is considered "incompetent"?

Why should you clarify things before a whirlwind marriage? How could someone with that level of education be so impulsive? [Don't they do premarital checkups before a whirlwind marriage? How can they even get married like that?]

[Are there still people discriminating against whirlwind marriages in the comments? As long as you're confident in your judgment and both parties know each other well, getting married after knowing each other for only a day is perfectly fine.]

Zhang Zhe doesn't think there's anything wrong with whirlwind marriages. In fact, many arranged marriages are essentially whirlwind marriages, with the couple gradually getting to know each other after marriage.

The key is whether both sides understand each other well enough.

"Auntie, when you say it's no good, do you mean the man's sexual performance is bad?" Zhang Zhe asked to confirm first, because blaming the divorce on the man's physical condition is a common lying technique used by some women.

In any case, the average person can't verify this issue.

The middle-aged woman nodded vigorously: "Of course, what else could it be?"

Is it written in the divorce agreement?

"How am I supposed to write this? Who could possibly write something like this?"

“Sister,” a thin, curly-haired woman next to the older woman patted her on the shoulder, “this teacher is questioning what you’re saying.”

"He thinks the divorce might be your daughter's problem."

"Huh?" The middle-aged woman immediately straightened her back, looking aggressive.

“That’s not what we meant,” Teacher Wang quickly explained from the side.

Zhang Zhe waved his hand, telling her not to panic: "That's exactly what I meant."

"Auntie, I've met 10 women who got married and divorced quickly, and 5 of them said it was because their husbands were not healthy enough."

"Our country's rate of stomach health maintenance isn't that high, is it?"

"It seems that as long as they answer like this, they can prove that they are no different from unmarried people."

"That's definitely different!" an old man in line shouted, seizing the opportunity.

This remark naturally drew a lot of eye-rolls, but the comments section shared a similar view with the old man.

[Divorce is divorce; who knows if you really had a whirlwind marriage?]

The fact that you're willing to get a divorce proves that there's something wrong with you, at the very least you have poor judgment and can't judge people well.

Some women even lied to Guigui, saying their ex-husbands were impotent, and that they themselves were from Chu.

“But to be honest, all the men here should understand that if you’re willing to have a whirlwind marriage, you probably have a need for that kind of thing,” Zhang Zhe offered his interpretation.

"If you really have no ability at all, what's the point of rushing into marriage?"

"The teacher is absolutely right," the old man shouted again. This time, he wasn't fighting alone; he had two other men supporting him.

"I'm a man, I understand men. If you can't even perform properly yourself, what's the point of getting married?"

"Sis, go back and ask your daughter if she's been fooled by you."

The middle-aged woman glared at each of the elderly men and women who were speaking, then glanced at Zhang Zhe and asked, "Is this important?"

"It's very important. If you were to marry a divorced man, wouldn't you care about the reasons for his divorce?"

"..." The woman paused for a moment, then asked, "What should I do?"

“Have that boy write a statement,” Zhang Zhe suggested. “You’ve already brought so many documents, one more won’t make a difference.”

"Okay, I'll get it done when I get back." The woman nodded, "But it's too late today."

"it's okay no problem."

"Let's continue our analysis."

Zhang Zhe was just reminding the older woman that the dating market has its own rules for divorced people. It's like failing in your last business venture; if you don't explain the reasons clearly, how can investors dare to invest again?

"Why did your daughter choose to get married so quickly?" Zhang Zhe asked. "Was it her own choice, or was the pressure you put on her too much?"

"I do not know either."

"That's because you parents forced him to do it."

"No, no." The woman shook her head repeatedly. If she admitted it, she would be looked down upon by dozens of old men and women present.

"Then why?"

"Auntie, you have to tell the truth. You just said you were going to sue the man for marriage fraud. Don't do such a thing yourself."
