I, reborn, really don't want to be a matchmaker!

Chapter 5 Praising the powerful and belittling the weak

Tang Shuang and Qin Chaoyang are both villagers from Wanhe Village. Although they don't usually interact much, their families have a fairly good relationship.

This is also why Tang the Cripple asked Zhao Mudan to help him with matchmaking; besides trust, he felt that Zhao Mudan was a reliable matchmaker.

Of course, Qin Chaoyang was also considered reliable by Tang the Cripple.

Seeing Qin Chaoyang put down a basket of eggs and start chatting and laughing with Tang Shuang, Tang the Cripple immediately perked up his ears.

"Sister, you're at the market today too?"

"Yes, I came with my dad."

"Are you free tomorrow?"

"What's wrong?"

"My mom asked me to let you know that Zhao Hu canceled his blind date, but Wang Dachui, who works at the Hongxing Auto Repair Shop in the city, wants to meet you tomorrow."

"Red Star Auto Repair Shop? That's a huge factory with nearly a thousand employees. Are you sure Wang Dachui, who works at such a big factory, wants to meet me?"

"Of course I'm sure."

"Is Wang Dachui a full-time employee?"

"Yes! Not only is he a full-time employee, but he's also the team leader."

How much does he earn in a month?

"One hundred and eighty-five yuan, less than two hundred."

"With such a high salary, is he over fifty and barely has any hair left?"

"No, Wang Dachui is twenty-five years old this year, 1.86 meters tall, with thick hair and regular features."

"He wants to meet me with such great offers? Is he out of his mind?"

Zhou Jian thought so too, and his expression became even more unpleasant.

But he didn't say anything more, and listened quietly to Qin Chaoyang's answer.

"How could Wang Dachui be mentally ill? He was the perfect blind date my mom selected."

"Sis, don't think too badly of yourself. In Wang Dachui's eyes, you are a very good catch and the most suitable marriage partner."

"No way?" Tang Shuang looked surprised.

"I'm not lying to you," Qin Chaoyang said seriously.

"Whether you lied to Tang Shuang or not, you know it in your heart." Zhou Jian couldn't help but retort to Qin Chaoyang, "Your mouth is a liar; not a single word of yours can be believed."

This statement is based on evidence. The most important point is that in 1988, people working in the city had secure jobs and would generally never marry girls from the countryside.

And now Wang Dachui is planning to do this.

It's clearly illogical and has a major problem.

"So, do you believe it, sister? Would you be willing to go to the city tomorrow to meet this Wang Dachui?" Qin Chaoyang asked Tang Shuang with a smile.

As for Zhou Jian, he simply ignored him.

It's not that he's being rude, but Zhou Jian is now his tool for praising the powerful and belittling the weak. Giving him face won't have any effect.

"This..." Tang Shuang hesitated, glancing at Zhou Jian.

"Don't go," Zhou Jian said repeatedly.

But as soon as he said it, he regretted it.

The reason for his regret was simple: Tang Shuang and he were just ordinary classmates, and he had no right to stop Tang Shuang from going on blind dates.

"Why should I?" Qin Chaoyang asked, secretly delighted.

If I'm not mistaken, Zhou Jian also likes Tang Shuang, but he's not good at expressing it, so outsiders can't tell.

Now that he's cornered, his secret has been exposed.

"That's right, what gives you the right to tell my daughter not to go to the city for blind dates?" Tang the Cripple rushed out of the alley, deliberately putting on a stern face to appear very angry.

"Because...because..." Zhou Jian's face flushed red. After hesitating for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and replied, "Uncle, it's just because I like Tang Shuang and don't want her to be deceived, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Shuang blushed and lowered her head.

But I was actually very happy inside.

Some things were unexpected.

Zhou Jian, that blockhead, has actually come to his senses today.

"Hmph! Of course not!" Tang the Cripple sneered. "Zhou Jian, let me tell you the truth, there are plenty of young men who like my daughter!"

"It's no use if you just talk the talk like them; you have to take some real action."

"That's right. Wang Dachui said that if Tang Shuang marries him, in addition to the basic requirements of 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a bicycle, a sewing machine, and a radio), he will also find her a stable job at Hongxing Auto Repair Shop. Can you do that?" Qin Chaoyang added fuel to the fire when he saw that Zhou Jian had been provoked.

"I can," Zhou Jianlian said.

If he backs down now, he might never be able to be with Tang Shuang in his lifetime.

In order to avoid regretting it for the rest of his life, he had no choice but to go all out.

"If you can, then go talk to your parents right now." Tang the Cripple pressed his advantage: "Remember! I'm only giving you half a day. After tonight, you won't have another chance!"

"Okay! Okay!" Zhou Jian knew that Tang the Cripple wasn't bluffing him. After saying something to Tang Shuang, he turned around and ran away in a hurry.

"Hahaha...that kid!" Tang the Cripple laughed loudly as he watched Zhou Jian run away.

A smile appeared on Qin Chaoyang's face. Just in case, he even checked Zhou Jian's personal information in the virtual pop-up window.

The virtual pop-up window is invisible to others, a fact he had already verified on the second day after his rebirth.

Therefore, Qin Chaoyang had no scruples at all when checking the information.

But as he looked, a hint of surprise appeared in his bright eyes.

Zhou Jian

Sex: Male

Age: 21

Height: 1.75 meters

Education: Junior High School

Weight: 56 kg

Occupation: Small vendor

Personality: One-sided

Talent: Culinary Skills (Not Activated)

Physical condition: Normal, with mild stomach ulcers

Marital Status: Single

Hobbies: Fishing, and enjoying bragging to Tang Shuang.

Overall assessment: This young man has exceptionally low emotional intelligence; if his talents were unlocked, he would be extraordinary in this life.

……

"This life is no ordinary one!"

This assessment is no small matter for Qin Chaoyang.

Just as I was about to take another closer look at Zhou Jian's personal information, Zhou Jian came running back, panting: "Uncle, my parents asked me to invite you and Tang Shuang to meet up at the small restaurant in front."

"Now?" Tang the Cripple was quite surprised.

He thought Zhou Jian's parents would reply no earlier than evening!

"Yes! Now." Zhou Jian pulled Tang Shuang away.

Tang the Cripple didn't follow immediately. Instead, he smiled and said to Qin Chaoyang, "Chaoyang, you've been a great help to me today. If there's nothing else, how about we go to a small restaurant for a simple meal?"

"I won't go for a casual meal; we can do it another day." Qin Chaoyang glanced around cautiously. "Zhou Jian hates me right now! If I go, I'm afraid I'll be targeted."

"By the way! You mustn't let it slip to Zhou Jian that Wang Dachui, who works at Hongxing Auto Repair Shop, was a character I made up to force him to confess."

If Zhou Jian were to let something slip, he would become enraged and embarrassed, and then a good thing would turn into a bad thing.

"Don't worry about that, I'm not stupid." Tang the Cripple saw Tang Shuang calling him from around the corner and quickly walked over.

After Tang the Cripple had walked far away, Qin Chaoyang carried a basket of eggs toward the supply and marketing cooperative at the intersection of West Street.

There are so many people buying things at the supply and marketing cooperative that there are queues at the entrance.

This gave Qin Chaoyang, who was approaching, a bit of a headache. Just as he was trying to find a place to rest, Tang Shuang called out from behind him: "Chaoyang, Zhou Jian's parents asked me to invite you to the grass carp restaurant for dinner."

"Are you sure?" Qin Chaoyang turned to look at Tang Shuang, his face showing surprise.

Normally, Zhou Jian's parents wouldn't invite him over for dinner, but this is the case now. What does this mean? It means that something is definitely amiss!

"Confirmed," Tang Shuang replied.

"Then you lead the way," Qin Chaoyang suggested after thinking for a moment.

"Okay." Tang Shuang walked quickly toward the grass carp restaurant.

Qin Chaoyang followed behind, carrying a basket of eggs.
