Chapter 165: The Yu family's plan fails, and Lou's mother is worried
After knowing the cause and process of the incident, Wang Weiguo finally figured out what was going on with the sisters Yu Li and Yu Haitang.

After all, Wang Weiguo and Yu Li were both cheated by this Qian matchmaker.

Although Wang Weiguo mobilized the resources of the entire matchmaking group for this blind date, the matchmakers are mixed. There are always one or two suckers, and Yu Li and the others happened to run into them.

Of course, it also has something to do with Wang Weiguo's sudden promotion to a level five cook. After all, few people could have thought of this. If matchmaker Qian knew this in advance, she would definitely not come to introduce Wang Weiguo to the Yu family.

But in the final analysis, it was matchmaker Qian who took the initiative to make a promise to the Yu family, otherwise such a farce would not have happened.

The most innocent person is Wang Weiguo.

When I knew nothing about it, a blind date suddenly showed up and came to my house to accuse me. It was really an unprovoked disaster.

Once this matter is clarified, there will naturally be no problem with Wang Weiguo.

Qian the matchmaker had caused all this trouble, so she had to deal with it herself. There was no reason for Wang Weiguo to step in.

After receiving the apology from Matchmaker Qian and the assurance from Matchmaker Liu, Wang Weiguo and his niece Wang Hongmei left.

"What a mess! Alas!"

Wang Hongmei felt helpless about leaving here.

Wang Weiguo had a successful blind date today and Wang Hongmei was quite happy about it. But then this incident happened out of nowhere and Wang Hongmei didn't know what to say.

Wang Weiguo didn't care too much about this matter. Instead, he comforted Wang Hongmei, "It's okay, aunt, let's not worry about it. It has nothing to do with us anyway."

"That's true, but won't it be misunderstood when Yu Li came to your courtyard and made such a scene?" Wang Hongmei was a little upset and complained, "Yu Li is the same. She obviously hasn't even agreed to meet you in person, but she came to your door on her own and even claimed to be your blind date. I don't know what she was thinking."

Wang Weiguo heard this and said, "Aunt, you can't say that. The girl was also tricked by the matchmaker. Although her actions were inappropriate, you can't blame her entirely."

Wang Hongmei was a little unhappy when she heard this, and complained: "Isn't this just for your sake? And you're even saying good things about others."

Wang Weiguo smiled and said nothing.

In fact, he also knew that his aunt was doing this for his own good. She was just complaining and didn't really want to cause trouble for Yu Li.

……

the other side.

After Wang Weiguo and Wang Hongmei left, Liu and Qian, the matchmakers, fearing that the night would be too long and troublesome, did not delay and went straight to Yu's house.

Because she came specifically to explain the misunderstanding and apologize, Matchmaker Qian also brought some cakes from home as an apology.

Not long after.

When the two arrived at Yu's house, sisters Yu Li and Yu Haitang had already returned from the courtyard, and Yu's father and mother were also at home.

Since the whole family is here, it saves a lot of trouble.

"Matchmaker Qian, you came at the right time. My daughter went to see Wang Weiguo today, and he said he had never heard of a blind date with our family. Is this true?"

As soon as Matchmaker Qian and Matchmaker Liu arrived at the door, before they could explain the reason, they heard Yu's father asking for confirmation.

"This……"

Without giving himself time to prepare, Yu's father went straight to the point right from the start. Matchmaker Qian was embarrassed, but she had to bite the bullet and admit, "That's it."

"what?"

"Really?"

"Mr. Qian, that's not what you told us before."

"Didn't they agree to meet, but then changed their minds?"

"So in the end, the other party was completely unaware. Are you playing a trick on us?"

"Luckily, our Yu Li went over to ask today, otherwise I would have been kept in the dark by you."

"You took our matchmaker's money, and this is how you do things for others?"

"Mr. Qian, as a matchmaker, you must give our family an explanation, otherwise this matter will not end."

"..."

As soon as Matchmaker Qian said this, the Yu family was furious.

Especially Yu's father and mother, their hearts were filled with anger, and they felt like they were being fooled by others after spending money.

Originally, Yu Li and Yu Haitang's behavior of privately going to Wang Weiguo's house to "seek justice" had made Yu's father somewhat dissatisfied and dissatisfied. He felt that two girls doing this had somewhat brought shame to their family.

It's not a good deal if you try too hard.

After all, I have been "rejected" once, and it feels like I am trying to please someone but getting rejected.

Now I feel somewhat fortunate that I made the trip, otherwise I would have suffered a loss without knowing it.

Yu Li was also very angry, especially when she recalled the afternoon when she ran to the other person's courtyard to inquire about things, especially the scene when she questioned Wang Weiguo at that time. She felt embarrassed when she thought about it now.

Not to mention Yu Haitang.

It was her idea to go to the house to "seek justice" this afternoon. She was even more proactive than Yu Li, the person involved. But in the end, she found out that the problem was actually with them.

"Brother Yu, Yu Li, don't be so angry. This is indeed my fault. I was confused for a moment and was blinded by greed..."

With Matchmaker Liu accompanying and supervising her, Matchmaker Qian was in a difficult situation. Even if she wanted to lie to get the matter over with as she had done before, she couldn't do it and could only confess honestly.

Moreover, Wang Weiguo and Wang Hongmei have come to my house. If I don’t explain the whole thing, there will be no way to resolve this matter.

After she finished speaking, Matchmaker Qian quickly took out a dollar that she had prepared long ago, and handed it to Father Yu along with the apology she had brought with her. She continued, "Brother Yu, I was not fair in what I did. I want to apologize to you and Yu Li. This is the deposit you gave me before, and I am returning it to you now. I also hope you can accept this apology."

"What? You cheated our family, and you just return the deposit and that's it?"

"So we are easy to bully, and we are just given a box of cakes?"

"Take the money and cakes back. We don't accept them."

"We, the Yu family, may not be well off, but we have our integrity."

"..."

Matchmaker Qian's humble apology and compensation did not satisfy Yu's father, but instead aroused his anger.

Qian the matchmaker handled this matter in a dishonest way. She has no professional ethics or manners at all. If this matter is easily forgiven and settled, Yu's father will not be able to swallow this.

What's worse, once this matter gets out, the Yu family will lose all their face.

Seeing that the situation had come to a standstill, Matchmaker Liu had no choice but to step out and try to smooth things over. She began to persuade him, "Brother Yu, don't get excited. This matter was handled inappropriately by Old Qian. We came here with the sincerity of making amends and apology. The most important thing right now is to resolve this matter instead of making a big fuss. This will not be good for both parties. What do you think we should do to satisfy you?"

Hearing what Liu the matchmaker said, Yu's father's expression softened slightly. It was not his intention to make a big fuss.

Even though the problem was not with them, he didn't want to offend the matchmaker. After all, their two daughters would get married in the future!

"We are not unreasonable people. It is not difficult to resolve this matter."

Pretending to be deep in thought, Yu's father said to Liu and Qian, "Didn't you introduce them before? This time, you can arrange for my daughter and Wang Weiguo to meet formally."

When they came back just now, Yu Li and Yu Haitang had already told them about Wang Weiguo's situation. Now that they understood the previous mistakes and misunderstandings, Yu's father became interested.

A 19-year-old fifth-level cook from Fengzeyuan, plus Wang Weiguo's various conditions, it is hard not to be moved.

Even before, when they didn't know that Wang Weiguo was a level 5 cook, they all felt that Wang Weiguo was an excellent match for Yu Li, and that they even thought that they were marrying above their station, since Yu Li didn't even have a formal job right now.

Temporary workers in textile factories are temporary workers after all. They cannot be compared with apprentices. They may not even have the chance to become regular employees. It is hard to say when these temporary workers may lose their jobs.

The profession of cook is really popular, and the key is that I have an aunt who works as a salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative.

Although Wang Weiguo's parents had gone to the Northwest to support construction, they were also employees and their salaries were not low.

If Yu Li married into such a family of three workers, she would basically just enjoy a good life for the rest of her life, and they, as parents, would also be able to benefit from it.

If not for this, their family would not have taken this matter so seriously before, and Yu Li and Yu Haitang would not have been so obsessed with it and would not have come to the door to seek justice.

The most important thing.

Naturally, Yu's father also noticed it. After meeting Wang Weiguo today, his daughter came back in a daze. When she mentioned the other party, her face was shy and longing, and it was obvious that she had a crush on him.

Just then, Matchmaker Qian and her companions came to the house, and Yu's father, knowing the reason, took the opportunity to put forward his own ideas and requests.

After hearing Yu's father's idea, Yu Li felt a little embarrassed, but she did not mean to refuse. It was obvious that she also had this idea, but was embarrassed to say it out loud due to face. However, she was secretly happy in her heart.

however.

Faced with the solution proposed by their father, both Matchmaker Qian and Matchmaker Liu felt unprepared. They looked at each other and became embarrassed.

"What, what's the problem?"

Seeing that neither Matchmaker Qian nor Matchmaker Liu expressed their opinions and both looked embarrassed, Yu's father obviously saw something and asked directly.

Yu's father's questioning left Matchmaker Qian speechless.

In fact, if she had not made such a boast and confident guarantee before, this matter would not have been a big deal, because Wang Hongmei really did not like Yu Li.

But the problem is that the order of events is reversed.

She made the promise first, but when she discovered the problem later, it was too late.

Moreover, the two parties involved knew about it privately, breaking the window paper and bringing the matter to the surface.

More importantly.

She had no way of meeting the demands made by Yu's father now.

Not to mention that Wang Weiguo had a successful blind date today and is already dating Lou Xiaoe, the conditions of Wang Weiguo and Yu Li alone are not equal.

If she hadn't had insufficient information before, she wouldn't have rashly introduced Wang Weiguo to Yu Li.

If they were to say frankly now that Wang Hongmei didn't like Yu Li, it would undoubtedly embarrass Yu's father and Yu Li and would completely offend the Yu family.

"Brother Yu, there's really nothing we can do about this..."

Matchmaker Liu sighed and could only help explain: "You may not know, it's really a coincidence that Wang Weiguo just happened to have a successful blind date today."

"what?"

"Are you telling the truth?"

"He went out today. Was he going on a blind date?"

"Did the blind date succeed?"

"This……"

"..."

After hearing what Liu the matchmaker said, Yu Li, who had originally been expecting, became uneasy.

As Yu Li spoke, an anxious and depressed expression appeared on her face, and Yu's father and mother's faces did not look good either.

They had originally hoped that a bad thing could turn into a good thing, but once this news came out, their hopes were completely dashed.

Father Yu's face was gloomy. He looked at Matchmaker Liu and Matchmaker Qian in an unfriendly tone and asked, "May I ask, which girl did Wang Weiguo fall in love with?"

"This……"

……

Lou family.

Lou Xiao'e, Wang Weiguo's real blind date, was completely unaware of all this.

After the date in the afternoon, as soon as Wang Weiguo sent her home, she was caught by Lou's mother and questioned.

Originally, she didn't hold out much hope. After all, Lou's mother knew that Lou Xiao'e was rather resistant to blind dates. But when she saw her daughter's shy and sweet look, and especially when she knew that this blind date was not only going exceptionally smoothly, but that the two of them were already a couple, Lou's mother herself was shocked.

This blind date is progressing too fast.

Faced with this result, instead of feeling happy, Lou's mother couldn't help but become worried.

The main reason why Lou Xiao'e went out on a blind date now was to prepare for her to get married after graduating from high school, but Lou's mother didn't expect that she would be successful the first time.

Now that her daughter hasn't even graduated from high school, and thinking that her daughter is so naive, Lou's mother has begun to regret. If she had known about today's blind date, she would have gone with it so that she could help screen and prevent her daughter from being deceived.

Failed!
Worried in her heart, Lou's mother naturally began to ask about the process and details of today's blind date, especially Wang Weiguo's situation and performance.

However, I don’t know whether Wang Weiguo is really that outstanding, or her daughter has been drugged, or maybe it’s just that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. In Lou Xiaoe’s mouth, Wang Weiguo is simply a perfect person and is praised to the skies.

After talking about blind dates and dating, Lou Xiao'e remembered something else. She hugged her mother's arm and begged, "Mom, you promised me that as long as I go to the blind date obediently this time, you will help me tell Dad that as long as I can pass the exam next time, you will let me continue to go to college."

"Xiao'e, do you still want to continue studying at university?"

Upon hearing this, Lou's mother became embarrassed.

I had promised Lou Xiao'e before just to please her, but I didn't expect that today's blind date would go so smoothly, without even giving her a chance to refuse.
