Chapter 62 -62: Driving Away Matchmaker Li
“Why wouldn’t she, you have no idea in your heart?” Liu Dama had been holding back for a while, and this time she couldn’t restrain herself anymore. “Older sister, I believed in you and let Erni have a matchmaking date with Xu Haiyang, but you doing such a thing, do you think you are living up to the trust I placed in you?”
“Sister Liu, what do you mean by that?” Matchmaker Li was not happy, “I kindly introduced a match for your girl, how did I become the bad guy?”
Matchmaker Li was now certain that someone had been talking about her to Liu Dama, but even if it were true, she was not happy to be questioned about her character!
She better not find out who’s been running their mouth behind her back, or she’d definitely tear their mouth apart.

“You’re introducing my daughter to a family like the Xu’s, isn’t that pushing her into a pit of fire?” With the conversation getting to this point, Liu Dama didn’t hold back anymore; she had seen with her own eyes what sort of person Xu’s mother was.
So someone was stirring up trouble, Matchmaker Li felt a bit uneasy, but she put on a tough front, “Sister Liu, whose loose lips have you been listening to? If the Xu family were really that bad, would I introduce them to your household?”
“Go around the villages within ten miles and ask, which marriage I arranged did not lead to a prosperous life?”
Liu Dama surely wouldn’t be foolish enough to mention Shen Mianmian, she snorted, “I don’t need to ask around, I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”
Xiaocui at the side, having heard the conversation, was extremely nervous. Seeing her mother hadn’t given away Shen Mianmian, she finally relaxed.
Matchmaker Li was not the kind of person to reason with; if she knew it was Shen Mianmian who had spoken, she would indeed go confront her, and how could Shen Mianmian, a young girl, compete with a woman like Matchmaker Li?
Hearing “seen with her own eyes,” Matchmaker Li thought, oh no, could it be that Sister Liu saw Xu’s mother arguing with neighbors?
In the village, when a girl gets married, everyone likes to inquire about the character of the prospective parents-in-law. It was very possible that Sister Liu had stumbled upon something while inquiring.
Having been a matchmaker for so many years, she was quick to react and immediately softened her tone to probe, “What did you see? Could there be some misunderstanding?”
“Let’s not talk about whether it was a misunderstanding or not; let’s just say my Erni wasn’t lucky enough. Let’s drop the subject.”
With the New Year approaching, Liu Dama didn’t want to argue with Matchmaker Li and sent her out with a grim face.
Matchmaker Li felt somewhat guilty and did not dare say much, leaving with an awkward expression.
Zhou Lanfang, washing vegetables by the well, saw everything and found it immensely entertaining. Without television to watch and having worked on shoe soles in bed all day, she was utterly bored.
Seeing a chance for gossip, she wouldn’t miss it for the world and quickly called after Liu Dama, “Didn’t Matchmaker Li come to arrange a marriage for Erni? How did it turn into an argument?”
Liu Dama had a belly full of anger and was anxious to vent to someone, “I tell you, if Matchmaker Li ever arranges a marriage for Mianmian or Siyu, you must investigate the man’s family background thoroughly. She, as long as the man is willing to give a red packet, would introduce any sort of person.”
“I heard she introduced a handsome young man to Erni!”
When Xu Haiyang came to the village, many people saw him, and there was much talk behind closed doors about how upright the young man looked.
“No matter how good-looking he is, can my Erni just rely on his good looks for a living?”
Liu Dama spilled everything that had happened that morning.
“Isn’t this heartless?” Zhou Lanfang appeared even angrier than Liu Dama, “If someone introduced such a match for my Siyu, I would definitely tear their mouth apart.”
