Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1131: Chapter 1131: Mixer

Bai Yucheng came in. Now, he was fully responsible for Su Yuanyuan’s personal matters. ”Minister, there’s a call from a female comrade. It’s from Feng Shanshan.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded, ”Put it through.”

Once the call was connected. ”Su Yuanyuan, I’ve decided to take the exam next year. It’s a recommendation from here.”

”That’s possible too.” The girl told me last time she wanted to come out. I knew it’s hard to live there. Now, she’s grown older, and for a girl at her age, it’s really tough to live in the village without a family.

Kind urgings from seven aunts and eight cousins.

”Great! When’s the exam?”

”January this year. If I pass, I can start school.”

”Where are you planning to apply?”

”The Capital. You’re right, it’s all the same to me, so I’ll choose the best.”

”It’s good you’re thinking that way.”

”Alright, I just wanted to inform you.”

”Do your best. Actually, some things aren’t as you imagine.”

”Okay, I’ll certainly try hard.”

After hanging up, Su Yuanyuan didn’t think much about it.

Qi Yan and the other two returned early this year too.

However, Su Yuanyuan gave them plenty of meat and grain. Qi Yan went out again, which was for the garrison. After all, there were still many people there.

On the fifteenth of the twelfth lunar month, Tan Shaoting let Qin Zhiyuan attend a large matchmaking event.

Hu Zi, Da Biao, and Daqing also arrived. After all, Zeng Zhenqing had ordered Zhang Chunsheng to attend.

On hearing the news, Xu Guozhi also talked to He Yuanhao about it.

”I’m not going.”

”Why not! You might find someone you like.”

”I’m not going.” It was too embarrassing.

”Then Xiao Yao is coming over in a few days, have a look.”

He Yuanhao didn’t refuse. In fact, he was a bit annoyed.

He had already met two girls. But they were really disappointing.

Later, he stopped meeting people, feeling they were too pretentious, none worth a second glance.

”Xiao Hao, that won’t do. This Xiao Yao is a very smart girl, get to know her more, don’t just negate after one meeting.”

”Got it.”

Chengzi and the others were also quite upset. They were almost thirty now. Going for a group matchmaking, how does that work? What if several people fancy the same person?

Su Yuanyuan noticed Chengzi was embarrassed.

”Chengzi, you should start a family, only then will you understand its importance.

In the past, you could say work was risky, fearing harm to the girl.

Now you’re stable too. Once you start a family, you’ll understand its meaning and mature in thought.”

”Sister-in-law, I feel very embarrassed.”

”Why feel embarrassed? You delayed your lifetime matter for work, naturally the organization will find a way to help you.

Furthermore, aren’t Zhang Chunsheng, Hu Zi, Daqing, and Da Biao there with you?”

”Still feels embarrassing.”

Just then, Tan Shaoting walked in and overheard Chengzi. ”Just go obediently. They’re excellent female comrades, all screened.

Of course, character can’t be guaranteed, you’ll have to experience that slowly.”

”Boss, what if Da Biao and I like the same one?”

”Then you’ll compete. Don’t you know that yet?”

”But won’t that be bad? What if it affects our friendship?”

Tan Shaoting gave Chengzi a disdainful look. ”That’s your ambition. So what if you all like the same girl? She might not even fancy you.

Don’t flatter yourself. You think they’ll choose you for sure!

The people at this event aren’t just you guys, there are many from other departments too.”

This made Chengzi even less confident. Since he was there, he was hoping to find a suitable girl to marry.

What if he liked someone who didn’t like him?

”Just get going, stop standing around here.”

Chengzi left reluctantly, feeling anxious.

He waited for Daqing and Da Biao. The two were also notified by the boss, feeling very dejected.

They felt it was humiliating. Only the unwanted needed such things in their minds.

Tan Shaoting’s simple comment made the two behave. ”Someone wants you two?”

It was too frustrating. Why had things become so difficult?

Upon seeing Chengzi, they exchanged glances. Years of understanding between brothers showed they were all just as troubled.

”Where are Hu Zi and Zhang Chunsheng?”

”Not here yet.”

”Let’s wait, we’ll all go in together.”

”The boss said they might not even like us.”

Daqing and Da Biao fell silent, feeling ashamed. Why was it scheduled for the afternoon?

”The boss gave the order. Executing it involves others. At least I know there’s food.

Qin Zhiyuan will come too. Leader Zeng told Zhang Chunsheng and Qin Zhiyuan to pick someone, or next time they’ll just be assigned.”

Da Biao whispered, ”I’d actually prefer to be assigned.”

Daqing nodded in agreement.

Chengzi looked at the two, thinking they must be upset. He said nothing more, though.

After about ten minutes, Zhang Chunsheng and Hu Zi showed up.

Looking at the two, they too were gloomy. They were indeed troublemates.

Hu Zi drove. The matchmaking wasn’t at this location.

It was even harder for Zhang Chunsheng, being a leader, why was he dragged here?

He was warned that if he wasn’t serious, he’d be suspended to find a partner.

Couldn’t he choose to stay single?

He was told, no, that’s not acceptable.

Seeing Zhang Chunsheng’s frustration, Chengzi suddenly felt slightly less embarrassed.

Zhang Chunsheng was a big leader, yet he had to attend a matchmaking like them. Maybe it wasn’t so shameful for himself?

The five arrived. Many were already present, both men and women.

There were dedicated organizers for the female comrades here.

Professions varied, but all were organized by someone.

Chengzi and his group were also greeted by someone.

Honestly, among the aging male comrades, they held the highest positions.

This was also Tan Shaoting’s intention, hoping they could successfully find suitable partners this time.

Actually, this matchmaking event might as well be a tea party, with fruits, snacks, peanuts, sunflower seeds, tea, and candy. Everything was well-prepared.
