Married the Tough Guy After Transmigrating

Chapter 119: Chapter 120 Matchmaker Speaks

“Wow, that’s no small feat; the back kitchen is all about physical strength, you can’t handle it without some muscle.

But this girl, although she looks slim and frail, turns out to be pretty capable,” the matchmaker said, clearly more pleased.

She kept bombarding Xu Ying with questions, from where her family lived to how many people were in her family, what position she held, and how much her monthly salary was—she asked everything she could think of.

By then, Gu’s mother was already deceived by the matchmaker and interrupted her interrogatively, “Let’s eat quickly, everyone needs to get to work soon.”

“Yes, yes, yes,” matchmaker Sun Lifang nodded enthusiastically at the mention of eating.

Gu Fuying joined Gu’s mother and the matchmaker for the meal, casting a pleading glance at Xu Ying and Qiu Ye.

Xu Ying and Qiu Ye felt helpless, hoping only that she could finish her meal quickly and get rid of this man.

Gu’s mother sensed something was off and at the dining table, the man finally revealed that he was twenty-six years old this year.

Gu’s mother’s face suddenly turned dark, looking at Eldest Sister-in-law Gu with a belly full of anger; this was indeed pushing her daughter into a pit.

At such an age, if he really had money and a good job, it’s strange he hadn’t married yet, which probably meant he had some flaws.

Seeing her sister-in-law upset, Eldest Sister-in-law Gu hurriedly tried to smooth things over with a smile, “An older man knows how to cherish a woman, and once Fuying marries him, she will definitely lead a fortunate life; moreover, Junqing has a small leadership position in the factory now.

He earns over fifty a month. Fuying wouldn’t even need to take care of her in-laws, and the two of them could live a happy life together.”

Gu’s mother could not hold back her anger, “If he’s so great, then Funing in your family would be even more suitable. Let’s keep the benefits within the family; I don’t intend to compete for someone else’s love.

Fuying, hurry up and eat. After your meal, you can get to work, and remember to listen, or else you’ll face consequences.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Fuying overjoyed, clearly knew her mother wouldn’t be pleased.

“Sure thing! Mom.”

With that, Gu Fuying found the meal suddenly more appetizing. She looked up just in time to see Wu Qingsong across from her and swiftly curled her lips at him.

Wu Qingsong saw it, immediately getting annoyed; he and Gu Fuying clearly clashed, so relentless this woman was.

Was she still hung up on that time he accidentally saw her breaking up in tears?

Besides, he hadn’t meant to mock her.

“Petty!” Wu Qingsong mouthed silently.

Although Gu Fuying couldn’t guess what he said, she felt certain it must be a curse at her.

Immediately, she glared fiercely at Wu Qingsong.

Wu Qingsong, unconcerned, even stuck his tongue out at her.

Gu Fuying was so angry she could hardly enjoy her meal anymore; the man at the match up smiled creepily and reached out with his chopsticks to serve her, making her feel nauseous at the sight of the food.

She lost her appetite completely and declared, “Mom, I’m full, I’m heading to work.”

Seeing this, the man from the match up hurriedly stood up, “Fuying, let me take you.”

Gu Fuying declined instantly and sprinted away.

Wu Qingsong couldn’t help but snicker secretly at the sight, and just then, Gu Fuying turned her head and caught him in the act.

She grew even more incensed at the sight of him; every embarrassing moment of hers seemed destined to be witnessed by this man, as if he existed just to torment her.

“Fuying,” called Qiu Ye, looking up to find her already gone. She checked the time, quickly ate a few dumplings, then turned to Xu Ying and yelled, “Yingying, I’m off to work now, goodbye.”

“Goodbye,” replied Xu Ying, who had just finished her tasks, still unaware of what had transpired, suddenly unable to spot Gu Fuying. Was the matchmaking over now?

Gu’s mother couldn’t bring herself to eat either. She glared at her sister-in-law, got up, waved at Xu Ying, took out money to pay the bill directly, and left in large strides.

Aunt Gu glanced at Xu Ying, her eyes flickering, and exchanged a look with the matchmaker before they both couldn’t help but smile faintly.

“I should head back now, my sister-in-law is just too stubborn. You see, Junqing has a house and a car, and earns so much every month. What’s not good about him?”

The matchmaker smiled faintly, feeling some disdain towards Aunt Gu, but still put on a smiling face as it would help her make money. “Exactly, it’s only because Junqing doesn’t have parents that marriage had been delayed. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been your niece’s turn. When you go back, you should really talk to them. Once this chance passes, it won’t come again.”

Aunt Gu quickly nodded, “Alright, alright.”

After speaking, she hurried back.

The matchmaker, with her mouth greasy from the food, saw that there was still a lot of meat dishes left on the table and immediately shouted, “Waiter, can you pack this up for me?”

Sun Lifang lifted her head, “Do you have a box? Without a box, I can’t pack it.”

“Hey, your girl, how about this, such a big restaurant and not even an iron box? We spent quite a lot on this meal, what’s the problem with providing a box?”

“You guys spent a lot, didn’t you eat well? Or you’re not full? You paid, we prepared the food, what’s wrong now, do I still owe you a box?” Sun Lifang replied with disdain.

The matchmaker’s face turned red, and looking at Sun Lifang, she cursed, “You may look decent, but why is your heart so dark? What’s wrong with an old woman asking for a box? You already made so much money from us, so stingy. Be careful, you might end up not getting married.”

Sun Lifang exploded in anger, “You’re the one being stingy. Why don’t you buy the box? Besides, who paid for this meal? You just tagged along for a free meal and drink, so shameless. Even if I don’t get married, I have my parents to support me, unlike you. You’re so old, with no one to care for you, still having to struggle to earn money, how pitiful!”

Matchmaker Sun was stung by Sun Lifang’s words, becoming furiously embarrassed. She no longer cared about packing the food and stormed off.

Perhaps due to having done too many unkind things in her life, Matchmaker Sun lost her husband as soon as she married and later remarried several times, but each husband died not long after the wedding.

Thus, everyone said Matchmaker Sun was a husband killer, and soon no one dared to marry her.

Not having any children, wasn’t that just having no one to care for her?

That was a lifelong regret for Matchmaker Sun.

As soon as Matchmaker Sun left, Sun Lifang couldn’t help but curse, “That matchmaker’s so disgusting, her skin’s so thick.”

“Indeed.” Last time, the matchmaker who had arranged her cousin’s marriage was the same.

Not a single good matchmaker around, twisting black into white, white into red.

Regardless, as long as they could make it look like a match, they would.

Truly disgusting.

That afternoon, Xu Shengwu drove to the restaurant, his face beaming as he entered with the freshly divided 1,500.

Previously, the money he had earned was spent on dining out, and he always sent it back to his mother, sometimes saving a bit to buy clothes for his younger sister.

This time he didn’t have much money on hand, but now that he had some, of course, it was meant to be spent on his dear sister.

The amount spent on rent over the years, his sister must have used up all her savings.

A girl’s family having no money on hand wouldn’t do—new dresses, new leather shoes, skin creams, everything costs.

“Third brother, shouldn’t you be going to work?” Xu Ying was delighted to see him.
