Chapter 2054 Prelude to Marriage

After Chen Aidang came out of the hospital, he went to find Wang the Matchmaker. He had been spreading the news of his remarriage for so long, but he hadn't heard back from the Matchmaker. He was a little anxious.

He only had one month of bereavement leave and vacation this time. He had to arrange all the family affairs within one month, otherwise he would not have the opportunity to participate in the sea training, which was related to his future promotion.

When Chen Aidang, wearing a navy shirt, found Wang the Matchmaker's house, Zhang's mother was talking to Wang the Matchmaker about her daughter's marriage.

Because the Youth League Office came to urge her again, Zhang's mother knew that the matter could not be delayed any longer, so she put her daughter's marriage on the agenda.

Wang the Matchmaker knew that she had taken the matchmaking money, so she also actively promoted the marriage. The two were choosing an auspicious day for the wedding, and Chen Aidang came.

When Zhang's mother heard the man call himself Chen Aidang, she knew that this was the blind date that her daughter had given up. She took a glance and found that the other party was still energetic except for his older age, but there was no grief on his face for the loss of his wife, only a trace of eagerness to get married as soon as possible.

Zhang's mother had seen countless people, and she immediately guessed why the other party came to find Wang the matchmaker, so she got up and said goodbye after selecting three auspicious days.

After Wang the matchmaker sent Zhang's mother away, she went back to the house and poured a cup of tea for Chen Aidang. Without waiting for the other party to speak, she sighed and said:

"Deputy Battalion Commander Chen, it's not that I am not dedicated. I have spread the news that you are looking for a marriage partner, but it is too difficult for you to find a first marriage.

Someone is satisfied with your own conditions, but your three children made them back off. I tried my best to persuade the girl to meet you first. The girl agreed, but her parents did not agree, and I couldn't force it."

Chen Aidang scratched his hair in annoyance and could only say:

"Aunt Wang, I know that my affairs have made you embarrassed. I am anxious to return to the team and want to settle the family affairs as soon as possible, otherwise I may I am about to be demobilized.

I have feelings for the army. I have fought so hard until now and I don’t want to give up. Not only for myself, but also for the future of my children, I want to give it a try.

I will lower the conditions. It doesn’t matter if the woman is divorced or widowed. It’s better if she doesn’t have children. After all, I already have three. ”

Seeing that the other party took the initiative to lower the conditions, matchmaker Wang was relieved and said:

“Okay, since Deputy Battalion Commander Chen said so, I will look for you again and try to find someone you like. ”

“Then please pay more attention to Aunt Wang. I have prepared the thank-you gift for you.”

Matchmaker Wang agreed with a smile, sent Chen Aidang away, locked the door, and hurried to a house in the next alley.

Things went smoothly for Zhang Haiyan. Because they were engaged, their relationship was clear, and they didn’t need to be too shy when dating.

Song Xiangqian told his leader about his upcoming wedding, and he hadn’t arranged for him to go on a business trip recently. He asked Zhang Haiyan out almost every weekend. In addition to dating, the two of them bought wedding supplies.

Fortunately, Song Xiangqian's family left him a house, so they had a house to live in when they got married. It was not that no one had envied the Song family's house before, and instigated the street office to come to the door and force Song Xiangqian to rent out the empty house.

Song Xiangqian was not stupid. If he really followed the street office's wishes and arranged for a top-notch rogue to live in him, how could he live? He only had a little sister at home, and it was estimated that his house would be robbed when he came back from a business trip.

So he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask the leader for help. It happened that the supply and marketing cooperative had just recruited a few new salesmen, but the accommodation problem had not been solved for the time being, and the collective dormitory of the unit was also very tight.

He took the initiative to offer to share the worries of the leader, saying that the new salesmen could live in his house, and the unit would give him a little subsidy, but he had to sign a rental agreement with the supply and marketing cooperative to avoid the street office's concern.

Song Xiangqian got along well with his immediate superior, which also explained the reason for doing so. The leader immediately agreed when he heard it. This was a good thing. It could solve big problems for the unit and help subordinates. The matter of killing two birds with one stone was decided.

That afternoon, the three young men moved into Song Xiangqian's yard. When the people from the street office came to his house again, Song Xiangqian politely explained the situation and took out the lease agreement signed with the supply and marketing cooperative.

Song Xiangqian also blamed others and said with an unhappy face:

"Officer Chu, I don't know who spread the news that there is an empty house in my house. Everyone knows it. When the news spread to the unit, the leader talked to me and asked me to carry forward the spirit of dedication and help new colleagues. I rented all my empty houses at such a low price. Do you think this is something that people do?"

Officer Chu looked at the rental amount on the lease agreement, which looked like a decoration, and felt a little uncomfortable.

The house of the Song siblings was targeted by him. He and his wife had wanted to move out of the slum for a long time, but they had never found a suitable house. Either the rent was too expensive, it was too close to the slum, or it was too far from where they worked.

The fact that there were vacant rooms in the Song family yard was something he heard about from people in the alley only after he was transferred to the street office. He thought that he would get the moon first by being close to the water tower, so he could use the hands of those who wanted to take advantage to force Song Xiangqian, and then he would stand up and propose to rent a house.

He would then use his status to lower the rent, so that he could not only rent a good house, but also make Song Xiangqian thank him, and live in the same yard in the future, so that he could take more advantage.

The calculation was quite clever, but unfortunately Song Xiangqian directly cut off the fuel from the bottom of the pot, and the meat was rotten in the pot of the supply and marketing cooperative, and he had nothing to do with it.

Chu asked with a somewhat forced smile:

"I haven't heard you talk about this before. How come the lease agreement has been signed now, but it hasn't been filed with our street office!"

Song Xiangqian sneered in his heart, and he didn't know the calculations of the short and ugly man in front of him. He just wanted to make the other party's plan fail, so he said coldly:

"I went to the unit to ask for leave in the morning, and prepared to go to the street office to handle the rental in the afternoon. As a result, the unit leader decided to rent the house after knowing it, which just solved the accommodation problem of the newly recruited employees. Do you think I, a small purchaser, can compete with the leader?"

Chu didn't say anything, and finally helped Song Xiangqian to file the case with the street office with a drooping face. When the neighbors around knew about it, they had already moved in, so those who had small calculations in their hearts were disappointed.

After listening to Song Xiangqian's explanation, Zhang Haiyan became more determined in her choice. After all, the Song family had some foundation, and Song Xiangqian was also decisive and could protect the family's wealth.

But she still asked:

"After we get married, will we continue to rent the house to them?"

"Of course we can't rent it then. Xiaohui was young before, and no one said anything when she lived in the same yard with my male colleague. If we let those people move in after we get married, who knows what they will do!"

"What if there are still people who are concerned about the empty house at home?"

"It's okay. I heard from my mother-in-law that after you get married, they are going to repaint and divide the house, and let your family move in temporarily. They will tell others that your family rented it, and see what they will do!"
