Chapter 243 The Woman Selling Tofu

There was only one tofu seller in the village. He often pushed his bicycle to sell in the village, and his business was in two or three nearby villages. Yan Xin was not very familiar with it, but he was not too unfamiliar.

When he was studying, he often met him on the road, and he himself bought tofu from him.

The day before yesterday, the woman came over with a bicycle to sell tofu, and he went over to buy it for two yuan. The woman even praised their beautiful house.

Yan Xin didn't take a closer look. He felt that the woman looked quite ordinary, just an ordinary middle-aged rural woman.

He doesn't look as old as his father, but of course he's actually not as old as his father.

He asked curiously: "You're going to be a matchmaker for her. Are you sure she wants to find another partner?"

The matchmaker smiled and said: "Of course we can be sure of this. A year after her husband died, she told me that it was too difficult to support her daughter in school by herself, and she wanted me to help her find a companion."

"Oh, I want to support a daughter in school." Yan Xin understood.

It is already very difficult for a woman to live in the countryside. It is impossible for a woman to be as good as a man when it comes to farming. What’s more, it is even more difficult to support a daughter in school.

It’s no wonder that a year after her husband died, he begged a matchmaker to match him.

However, it is not easy for a married woman and a widow to find a partner, and it is even more difficult to support a daughter in school, which is a huge drag.

The matchmaker lamented: "Because it is a heavy burden to send a daughter to school, many people are afraid. There are some who are willing to live with her, but some have bad tempers, some are lazy, and some have children at home.

, the situation is not good, so she doesn’t dare to marry. There are not many capable people who are willing to live with a widow, so they haven’t found a suitable family in the past two years."

Yan Xin couldn't help but laugh: "Is my dad the right person?"

The matchmaker also laughed and took a look at his villa, but she didn't say anything about the house, but said:

"Your father is the only son like you. He doesn't need to study anymore. He has found a good job and has no burden. And her daughter is in the third year of high school, and her grades are not good enough to go to college. She only has this year's score.

It’s a burden. Both of them are widowed and have only one child. If they form a family, they won’t put much burden on each other and they can support each other. I think this is the best thing.”

Yan Xin smiled and was noncommittal.

The matchmaker then said: "Although you still need to support her daughter to study for one year, your family seems to be at a loss, but when her daughter gets married, you can still earn a betrothal gift. How can it be better than supporting her daughter to study for one year?"

Much lower."

This sounds like doing business.

Yan Xin has some funny things.

With the wealth he has now, why would he still care about that little money?

But that’s what the marriage market is, it’s just a transaction.

If the two parties code the conditions and the conditions are suitable, then they can be put together.

If the conditions are not suitable, then go to the next one.

If you encounter something similar, you will still have to bargain for a price. In principle, it is not much different from buying vegetables at the wet market.

A year ago, based on his family's conditions, the matchmaker would never have come to discuss this matter, and the woman would definitely not be willing.

Now that he has built such a small villa, he has also established a persona as a high-paying Internet practitioner. He has suddenly changed from a poor and lower-middle peasant to a rich peasant, and has finally entered the scope of others' choices.

After the matchmaker left, he asked his father: "Dad, do you have such thoughts? Looking for another companion?"

Dad Yan replied seriously: "I don't have such thoughts, I can live alone."

Yan Xin said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you have this idea. If it feels right, you can also find a partner, so that I can feel more at ease outside. Of course, the other person's character must be good, otherwise it will cause trouble for myself."

Dad Yan still said the same thing: "I don't have this idea."

Yan Xin was quite pleased with this.

Intellectually, of course he knows that his father can find another partner and his life will be better in the future.

However, if his father expressed his desire to marry another woman now, he would definitely feel a little uncomfortable inside and feel that he was betraying his mother.

Reason is one thing, personal emotions are another.

From a personal emotional point of view, he does not want to have a stepmother.

It's just that he won't let his feelings show up, because he doesn't want to block his father's happiness because of himself.

He didn't stay here long.

All the furniture and electrical appliances were purchased, the construction waste that needed to be disposed of was also disposed of, and the unwanted old furniture was taken away, and then they left Yangcheng.

When he left, he told his father not to move into the new house when the smell was strong, and not to damage his health if he had to endure it for a few more days.

Father Yan promised well, but he was not sure whether he listened to him in the end.

This time I took the train back to Yangcheng again, and it was still a sleeper ticket at night.

When I arrived in the county town, I still visited my own store and visited the employees working in the store.

Feng Xi was studying in school and couldn't come out, so he invited the employees to have a meal at a nearby restaurant and learn about their current work conditions.

Now the business of the online store is more prosperous than before, and several employees are a little overwhelmed.

When chatting with Yan Xin, they all complained about this matter. They hoped that the boss could tell the boss's wife and recruit two more employees, otherwise they would be really exhausted.

Feng Xi is watching here. What kind of employees need to be recruited and how to train new employees? Yan Xin doesn't understand these, so he can't make this decision for Feng Xi.

He only said that he would report this matter to Feng Xi.

In addition, they said that they have worked hard during this period, and they will be given bonuses this month. Each person's bonus will not be less than 1,000 yuan.

This promise actually made those employees happy, and it was nothing to feel tired.

Their wages are quite competitive in this small county, and they are lucky enough to be able to find such a job close to home.

You can still get such a bonus, what else is there to be unhappy about?

Yan Xin did not blindly promise them high rewards. Feng Xi knew better than him how much he would give them. This decision should be made by Feng Xi.

In his heart, this online store should belong to Feng Xi, and he wanted Feng Xi to have absolute authority here.

We invited them to have a meal and then took a car to the city train station.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, I was lying on the sleeper berth and the train passed a station. At this time, I received a message from Ellie:

"Today my mother told me that she wanted me to come to work at your place. I don't know if she was serious or just angry. Yan Xin, what do you think I should do?"
