  Chapter 202 Matches (both ordered 3600 plus more)

Following Jijie to the uncle's house, Lv Dong put the melon seeds, watermelon seeds and pumpkin seeds bought from Lao Liu yesterday in separate plates, placed them on the round table in the main room, and then went to the kitchen to the east of the yard to see if there was anything to be desired. What he did, aunt Li Min and his mother Hu Chunlan were busy picking vegetables and preparing for lunch.

   Li Min was curious about the future daughter-in-law who came to the door for the first time, and asked, "Fuji, how do you feel when you have met someone?"

"It's good." Lu Dong didn't say good things indiscriminately, Fang Yan was indeed a good person: "Sister Fang is a very good reporter. Aunt, you can rest assured. Sister Fang is a very good person. Since I realized this, I don't know if she has helped me and How busy is my brother?"

  Hu Chunlan answered: "No! In the evening newspaper today, someone wrote an article for Dongzi's shop." She pointed to the shelf in front of the kitchen: "I brought the newspaper from the brigade, it's there."

  Li Min said: "I'll see later, if you can write articles in the newspaper, you're a literate person. If you don't follow our family, learning to count from the back, going to school is a headache, and the teachers can't stand it."

  Hu Chunlan laughed: "The boss has found a big reporter, maybe starting from the next generation, the atmosphere in our family will change."

   "Yes." Li Min also laughed: "If you have a child in the future, you will have to go to university!"

   Lu Dong heard that the topic was not right, maybe he burned himself, so he quickly took the newspaper on the shelf and read it.

   This is the weekend edition of the Evening News, and a special issue is printed. Lu Dong didn't bother much, and saw an article signed by Fang Yan on the second edition of the special issue.

   looks quite literary.

   "Meet you, in this Lu's Mala Tang years"

"On the weekends, wandering among the restaurants in the alleys of Quannan Street, the fragrance of Shandong cuisine fills the sense of history with the sense of smell. This cultural city has many special foods that have been passed down for a long time. When you have enjoyed the oil spin of the Grand View Garden, you have eaten straw buns. After tasting the crab roe of Yihuhou, biting the pot stickers from Bianyifang, and drinking the sweet foam of Chunjiang, I will ask: What else?”

   "I heard a friend talk about a snack, so I went to Qingzhao, a small town named after a famous literati, in the east of Quannan, and found a new delicacy that perfectly combines local characteristics with foreign Sichuan cuisine - Lu's Mala Tang!"

"Just like the spread of Shandong cuisine to the south, resulting in various changes to adapt to the region, Malatang, a typical Sichuan-style snack, has been perfectly combined with local characteristics after arriving in Qingzhao. , local sauces are used as an aid to create special snacks that are more suitable for the tastes of northerners.”

"When I came to Lv Dong's new store, it was just lunch time. Its unique snacks attracted many college students. It is hard to find a store with nearly 200 square meters. When the author ordered the dishes and waited to sit down, the eyes, smell And hearing, all immersed in that bowl of Mala Tang."

   "Look: the red waves are rolling; listen: the voices are full of people; taste: the mouth is warm and the heart is intoxicated."

   "...In the best years, when I met Lu's Mala Tang, it was the first choice for college couples to dine, love Mala Tang, and take a trip to youth..."

   In addition to the soft article, Lu Dong read it, and there was an advertisement the size of a palm in the supplement.

  Evening News’s entrepreneurial support is not small.

  As one of the official media, the Evening News seems to have not really taken the road of marketization.

  There have been newspaper stalls in the university town since a few years ago. Huang Yong also said that the shops in the school also sell evening newspapers and other newspapers, and many students buy them.

  This ad probably works.

   There were footsteps at the gate, and Lu Jianguo came in from outside, wearing brand-new leather shoes and a straight jacket.

   Lu Dong put out the return paper and said hello: "Uncle."

  Lu Jianguo nodded, glanced at his watch, and said, "It's getting late, I think it's almost here." He looked towards the kitchen: "Are things ready?"

   Li Min replied: "I'm ready."

   Lu Dong heard the car horn and said, "I'll go out and have a look."

  Going out, a Santana car came over from the south and parked directly near the door. Lv Chun opened the door first, and Fang Yan also got out of the car on the co-pilot side.

   She had long hair combed behind her head and tied into a short ponytail. She had obviously worn light makeup, her skin was whiter, and the red mole on her prominent chin was even redder.

   "Sister Fang." Lu Dong greeted.

   Lu Chun called him: "Come and get something."

   Lu Dong hurried over and took the two large suitcases that Lu Chun took down from the back seat.

   Lv Jianguo and Li Min came out of the house at this time, Lv Chun hurried over to give an introduction.

  Fang Yan, a reporter, met many people and was generous, shouting: "Uncle, Aunt."

   Li Min responded and said, "Come on, talk to me at home."

   Lu Dong walked behind carrying something, Lu Jianguo glanced at it and said, "Just come empty-handed in the future."

   Fang Yan replied with a smile: "A little special product of my hometown."

   Here, the woman came to the man's house for the first time and brought very few things.

   Basically empty-handed every time.

  People please come into the main room, and they all come to talk. Lu Dong put down his things and took the teapot to make tea.

   Lu Dong is a young man, so he is naturally required to do this job.

   When we met for the first time, the topic was definitely not in-depth. The main thing was to ask about the work in the unit, talk about the situation at home, parents, siblings, etc.

  Fang Yan's family is similar to this one. Her father is a middle school teacher and grade director, and her mother is a farmer at home.

   Then there is a younger sister who is in high school.

   The work of Lu Chun and Fang Yan, and the family situation on both sides, can be said to be well-matched to a large extent.

   Li Min and Hu Chunlan went to work in the kitchen to prepare lunch, Fang Yan also went and was stopped.

  Lu Dong was next to Mancha and asked, "Sister Fang, I heard from you last time that your unit is moving to the east, are you sure?"

Fang Yan said with a smile: "It has been decided, and the decision to build a university town is very strong. The Evening News Office is required to be relocated. Isn't the business center under construction no one is using it? Evening News Agency."

   Lu Chun answered: "The university town needs a vanguard. Private companies are difficult to manage. Units under the Propaganda Department are just right."

   Lu Dong said deliberately: "That's fine, you and eldest brother are close."

   Lu Jianguo asked Lu Dong: "How is your business?"

   Without waiting for Lu Dong to speak, Lu Chun said, "Don't mention it, I'm jealous when I see it, and nearly 10,000 water flows a day."

   "So much?" Fang Yan was a little surprised.

   Lu Dong said, "It's hard to say how many repeat customers it will keep after it just opened.

  Lv Jianguo was well-informed and reminded: "The business is so hot, it's easy to make people jealous."

   Lu Chun laughed: "He has a lot of ways. He pulled a rich second generation from Quannan and a foreign teacher from the provincial university to invest together. No one dared to provoke him with ordinary methods."

  Fang Yan also smiled: "This is a good way."

Lu Dong said simply: "Now, to open a private shop, to set up a company, you'll be troublesome. With only the pile of certificates, I don't know how long it will take to go back and forth, and I have to stuff things every time. These people and things at the grassroots level, there is a It is convenient for foreigners to go out. Another rich second generation is Lao Du, Du Xiaobing, do you still remember Fang sister?"

  Fang Yan remembered the man in the Nike sweatshirt on the bus: "The man who caught pickpockets with you."

   Lu Dong said again: "Lao Du is a righteous man. His family has been doing business for over ten years. There are all kinds of purchase channels. The store can open quickly, and it is also due to Lao Du's light."

   Lu Jianguo said: "You have done a lot of business in the past six months, and you understand a lot of things."

   After talking about the conversation, the dishes in the kitchen were almost cooked, Lu Dong cleared the table, Lv Chun and Fang Yan both went over to serve the dishes, and the six people sat around the round table.

   A meal that is harmonious and peaceful.

   Lu Dong could see that the uncle and auntie Fang Yan were very satisfied.

   Before Fang Yan left, Li Min gave a red envelope of 600 money, which Lu Chun persuaded to accept.

   Lu Chun drove Fang Yan back, and the group went back to the yard.

  Hu Chunlan said, "Sister-in-law, what do you think? I think Fang Yan is quite good, and she is a good match for the boss."

   Li Min said: "He's a nice person, he's a generous and straightforward person, and the family is in good condition over there. He's a teacher."

  Marriage is never about two people, it is about two families.

  Lv Jianguo's opinion is simple and clear: "I see it."

  Li Min said suddenly: "One thing, her family belongs to Beihe."

   Lu Dong knew what the eldest aunt was worried about. If she really wanted to meet someone who insisted on Beihe's customs, even in the situation of the eldest uncle's family, she would have to bear the debt.

   Don't talk about the bride price, before the single marriage, except for the festival, you have to make ten trips and give the top ten gifts, and you can make the families who are in ordinary conditions can't breathe.

  The younger generation can only consider love, but the elders cannot ignore the reality.

   "Auntie, none of this matters." Lu Dong said directly: "What kind of family has what kind of people, Fang Yan knows that her family should be reasonable, and Fang Yan has a younger sister, not a younger brother."

  Lu Jianguo waved his hand: "Don't think about whether there are any of these, we can solve problems when we encounter problems, can we still be stumped?"

After he finished speaking, he went to the house, took out more than 1,000 yuan and a list, and gave it directly to Lu Dong: "Your eldest brother has to go to the woman's place next week. Dongzi, you often go to the wholesale market, and I will buy the things you need. Write it all on it, and then go and buy it back by the way."

   Lu Dong took it over and took a look. He had sold daily necessities and groceries before, and he had a general understanding of the market: "Uncle, I don't need so much."

   Lu Jianguo said: "Take it first, don't get enough."

   Lu Dong put the money and the list in his pocket and said, "I'll go buy the goods the day after tomorrow and buy them back together."

   Judging from the list, it was the first time for Lu Chun to go to the woman's door, and the uncle made all preparations. Even if it was placed north of Qingzhao, it would be considered a great gift.

  Li Min didn't say anything, she was very satisfied with Fang Yan and hoped that it would go smoothly.

   Lu Dong suggested: "Go away from both sides, it's better to find a middleman to talk over there."

   Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, if there is a middleman, there will be room for buffering on both sides, so that the parents on both sides will not be deadlocked, and the matter will be troublesome.

  Lu Jianguo had already thought about it: "I told your third grandfather, your third grandfather should come down, Lv Chun will go first, we will see the situation."

  It is estimated that for a long time to come, Lv Chun's marriage will be the top priority for their big family.

   Lu Dong said again: "Okay, uncle, you can call me if you have anything, I'll be there whenever you need me."

   Lu Jianguo would not be polite to his nephew: "You must run errands later."
