A week later.
一个星期后。riverFengarrives atLi Jiaon invitation, discussed that tomorrowZhangwill come„to look atmain house gate” the matter.
江枫应邀来到李家,商量明天张家过来“看家门”的事。Hundredbeamcounties, there are on intimate terms the views of threeinchworms.
在百梁县这边,有相亲三步曲的说法。
The firststep: Hits the acquaintance.
第一步:打相识。
The secondstep: Looks at the main house gate.
第二步:看家门。
The thirdstep: Bodyprice.
第三步:身价钱。Thisbeing on intimate termsfirststep- hits the acquaintance, actually the first time is the matchmakerarrangesboth partiesto meet the understanding.
这相亲的第一步-打相识,其实就是媒人安排男女双方第一次见面认识。Ifmeets for the first time after the understanding, throughsome timebeing together, both sidesintendsto continueto developdownward, the matchmakerwill arrange the bride's sideto lead the friends and relativesto arrive atmaleFang Jiato know the real situationtogether, but the groom's family must ask the friends and relativesto cometo receivetogether, thisisbeing on intimate termssecondstep- looks at the main house gate.
如果第一次见面认识之后,通过一段时间的相处,双方都有意继续往下发展的话,媒人就会安排女方带着亲戚朋友一起到男方家摸底,而男方这边也要请亲戚朋友过来一起接待,这就是相亲的第二步-看家门。
After knowing the real situation, ifboth sides have the meaning of furtherdevelopment, thatmustthrough the matchmakerdiscuss that the groom's familygave the bride's sidemanycash as a present the matter, thiswasbeing on intimate termsthirdstep- bodyprice.
等摸底过后,如果双方还有进一步发展的意思,那就要通过媒人来商量男方给女方多少礼金的事了,这就是相亲的第三步-身价钱。Thisis on intimate termsthreeinchworms, ifcanwalksmoothly, thatthismarriagewas near perfect.
这相亲三步曲如果能顺利走完,那这门亲事就八九不离十了。„Tomorrow'scuisineIamsucharrangement......”
“明天的菜式我是这样安排的……”BeforeriverFeng, Li Mingchengsent out18namescontinually, ishundredbeamcountiesentertains guests at a banquetnecessary and frequency of occurrencehighestcuisine, endasked: „Does Grandmasterriver, youhave a lookto arrangelike this?”
在江枫面前,李明诚一连报出了十八道菜名,都是百梁县这边宴客必备以及出现率最高的菜式,末了才问道:“江大师,你看看这样安排可以吗?”riverFengnodsto say with a smile: „Was OKUncle Li, most people'swedding banquetnotsuchsumptuousfood.”
江枫点头笑道:“可以了李叔,大部分人的婚宴都没有这么丰盛的菜肴。”Li Mingchengrelaxes, said: „SomeGrandmasterriveryouraffirmation, Ifelt relieved, tobacco and liquorIhave also arranged, the beer that smokeeachtable of signs of the dragon, wordseachtable of onebottle of Maotai of liquor, onebottle of Wuliangye, twobottles of finered wines, as well asdid not limit the quantity, how did youlook?”
李明诚松了口气,说道:“有江大师你的肯定,那我就放心多了,烟酒方面我也已经安排好,烟每桌一条大龙,酒的话每桌一瓶茅台,一瓶五粮液,两瓶高档红酒,以及不限量的啤酒,你看怎么样?”Thisstandard the farextraordinarymost people'swedding banquet, riverFenghad saidrepeatedly: „Goodgood, from the cuisineto the arrangement of tobacco and liquor, Ifelt the sincerity of Li, believes that Zhangas well astheirfriends and relatives, will satisfyUncle Li your arrangement.”
这个标准已经远超绝大多数人的婚宴了,江枫连声赞道:“不错不错,从菜式到烟酒的安排,就连我都感受到了你们李家的诚意,相信张家以及他们的亲戚朋友,都会满意李叔你这个安排的。”LiAunthearsword of auditsaid with a smile: „HasGrandmasterriverthissaying, wecanfeel relieved, is raremiss who mywife and childrenarticlebumps intosolikes, wemakeparents'nature unable to hold back, musthandleattractivelythesethings.”
旁听的李婶闻言笑道:“有江大师这话,那我们就可以放心了,难得我家小文碰到如此喜欢的姑娘,我们做父母的自然不能拖后腿,一定要把这些事情办得漂漂亮亮的。”riverFenghearsto nodagain and again, thenalsodiscussedsomedetails, canlet‚lookfortomorrowmain house gate’ the friends and relatives of Zhangas well asZhangare satisfied, Lialsotrulyworks hard.
江枫听得连连点头,接下来又商量了一些细节问题,为了明天能让来‘看家门’的张家以及张家的亲戚朋友满意,李家也确实是下了功夫的。Although being on intimate termsmen and womencanarrive‚look atmain house gate’thisstep, generally speaking the success ratiois overhalf, butLidoes not dareto have the least bitto be careless, was still maintaining‚pursuer’mentality.
尽管相亲男女能够走到‘看家门’这一步,一般来说成功率已经是超过一半了,但李家还是不敢有半点马虎,仍然保持着‘追求者’的心态。
......
……SinceLi Jiarides the electric cargoes home, riverFengreceives the WeChatvideo call that the elder sistersent.
从李家骑电动车回家的时候,江枫接到了姐姐发来的微信视频通话。riverFengstops the electric carin the roadside, puts through the WeChatvideo.
江枫把电动车停在路边,接通微信视频。Immediately, an attractivecheekthenappearsin the phone screen, she is riverFengelder sisterriverXue.
顿时,一张漂亮的脸蛋便出现在手机屏幕中,她便是江枫的姐姐江雪。„Elder sister, you do not needto go to workthis time? Howto givemeto send the video?”riverFengasked.
“姐,这个时间你不用上班的吗?怎么有空给我发视频啊?”江枫问道。riverXuesaid: „Todayis a little uncomfortable, asked for leave!”
江雪说道:“今天有点不舒服,就请假了!”Asking that riverFengcares abouthastily: „What's the matter? Yourwhereis uncomfortable? Went see a doctor?”
江枫连忙关心的问道:“怎么回事?你哪里不舒服啊?去看医生了吗?”InriverXuexinonewarm, shakes the headto say with a smile: „The smallissue, Ihave been all rightnow.”
江雪心中一暖,摇头笑道:“一点小问题而已,我现在已经没事了。”Saying that riverFengthenfeels relieved: „Is all rightwell, your one person outside, musttake care.”
江枫这才放心的说道:“没事就好,你一个人在外面,要多注意身体。”riverXueen, thenasked: „Smallmaple tree, youreturned to one's old homehasseveraldays, thinks that whatgood to make? Sameenters the industrial parkto workwith the big brother, planned that as sameworksasoutsidewith the elder sister?”
江雪嗯了一声,然后问道:“小枫,你回老家已经有好几天了,想好要做什么没有?是跟大哥一样进产业园工作,还是打算跟姐一样到外面工作?”AlthoughriverFenghas decidedto work as the matchmaker, but the parentswith the big brothersdo not know that hecaninsist, thereforehas not disclosedoutward, evenSister LianriverXuehave not known.
江枫虽然已经决定当媒人了,但父母跟大哥都不知道他能不能坚持下去,所以也就没有对外声张,甚至连姐姐江雪都还不知道。riverFengxiangand othersreconciledLi Xingwenandstretch/openQiulan, receives the firstsum of matchmakermoneytimetold the elder sisteragain, maymight as wellhitat a later dateday, since the elder sistershave askedhisworkissue, healsono longerconcealed.
原本江枫想等撮合了李兴文与张秋兰,拿到第一笔媒人钱的时候再告诉姐姐的,可择日不如撞日,既然姐姐都已经问到他的工作问题了,他也就不再隐瞒。„Elder sister, Iworks as the matchmakernative placeherenow!”
“姐,我现在在老家这里当媒人呢!”riverXuewensaidstares the bigeye, suspectedownearhad problems: „What did yousay?”
江雪闻言瞪大眼睛,怀疑自己耳朵出问题了:“你说什么?”riverFengsaid a say/waywith a smileagain: „Elder sister, Isaid that Igive the personto work as the matchmakernative placeherenow!”
江枫笑着再说了一遍道:“姐,我说我现在在老家这里给人当媒人呢!”riverXuedumbfoundedsay/way: „Whatinternationaljoke that smallmaple tree, your plays, can youalsowork as the matchmaker?”
江雪目瞪口呆道:“小枫,你这开的什么国际玩笑啊,就你还能当媒人?”riverFengcurls the lip saying: „Elder sister, your looked down on the person, why can't Iwork as the matchmaker?”
江枫撇了撇嘴道:“姐,你这就小瞧人了吧,我为何就不能当媒人?”riverXuesaid: „Smallmaple tree, thisworks as the matchmakerbasicallyismarriedperson of getting old, youare young, girlfriendsdo not have, whowill askyouto work as the matchmaker?”
江雪说道:“小枫,这当媒人的基本都是上了年纪的已婚人士,你年纪轻轻的,连个女朋友都没有,谁会请你当媒人啊?”riverFengsaid with a smile: „Elder sister, yourthoughthad fallen behind, whostipulated that works as the matchmaker to be marriedperson of getting old? To be honest with you, Ijustcame backsomepeopleto askmeto work as the matchmaker, the red packetIreceived1800. Tomorrowcomes‚to look atmain house gate’on the arrangedbride's sidetomaleFang Family, Ialsohad the red packetto takeif as expected.”
江枫笑道:“姐,你思想已经落伍了,谁规定当媒人就得是上了年纪的已婚人士啊?不瞒你说,我刚回来就已经有人请我当媒人了,红包我都收了一千八百块了。明天就安排女方到男方家来‘看家门’,不出意外的话我又有红包拿了。”riverXuefaceinconceivablesaying: „Smallmaple tree, youshouldnot bewill deceivemy, thisis unscientific, how did your justgraduatepossiblysomepeopleto askyouto work as the matchmaker?”
江雪一脸不可思议的说道:“小枫,你该不会是骗我的吧,这不科学啊,你这刚刚毕业回去怎么可能会有人请你当媒人?”riverFenglaughs saying: „Elder sister, gentlemandon'tthreedays, whenholds in high esteem, youryounger brother I am acting as a matchmakerthis, thatstrength is really levers, youwaitto look that my firstcustomershouldquickbe ableto enter the palace of marriage.”
江枫大笑道:“姐,士别三日当刮目相看啊,你弟我在做媒这一块,那实力真是杠杠的,你就等着看吧,我第一个客户应该很快就能走进婚姻的殿堂了。”riverXueshocking unable to speakbythisunexpectednews, said that does not believe the factas ifto put at present, said that believesandfeltthisfact was odd.
江雪已经被这个意料之外的消息给震撼得说不出话来了,说不信吧事实似乎又摆在眼前,说相信吧又感觉这事实在是离谱。Sawexpression that elder sisterthatfaceshocks, riverFenghahasaid with a smile: „Elder sister, whatexpression you have a look at your, withdamn, youryounger brother I am only the acting as a matchmakerperson, whathas to make a fuss about nothing?”
看到姐姐那一脸震撼的表情,江枫哈哈笑道:“姐,你看看你这什么表情,就跟见了鬼似的,你弟我只是做个媒人而已,有什么值得大惊小怪的?”riverXueshang his supercilious look, said: „Yousaidactuallydexterously, tradingto doisIsaidIam working as the matchmaker, youdo willfeelunbelievable?”
江雪赏了他一个白眼,说道:“你说得倒是轻巧,换作是我说我在当媒人的啊,你会不会感到难以置信?”riverFengthinks, the nodsaid: „Elder sisteryoualsosaidis reasonable, tradingto doisyourwordsIperhapsalsowantssurprised, no matter howsaid that youryounger brotherInowwas the matchmaker of guaranteeing exchange if not genuine, the elder sisteryouremembers that first should not be in love, whenIlooked to suityourpersonto introduceagainyouknew.”
江枫想了想,点头道:“姐你说得倒也有道理,换作是你的话我恐怕也要惊讶一番,不管怎么说你弟我现在都是如假包换的媒人了,姐你记得先不要谈恋爱哈,等我物色到适合你的人再介绍你们认识。”riverXuedoes not know whether to laugh or cry saying: „Imustlook for the words of boyfriend, but alsohas a need foryouintroducing?”
江雪哭笑不得道:“我要找男朋友的话,还用得着你介绍啊?”riverFenglooksaidearnestly: „Elder sister, Imeans , can two peopleinbe happytogether, myeyescancompletely understand,thisismyinherenttalent, is the realreason that Ichooseto work as the matchmaker.”
江枫神色认真道:“姐,我是说真的,两人在一起会不会幸福,我一眼就能看透,这是我与生俱来的天赋,也是我选择当媒人的真正原因。”riverXuedoubtfulsaying: „HowIhave not listened toyouto sayalsohassuchtalent?”
江雪半信半疑的说道:“我怎么从没听你说过还有这样的天赋?”riverFengsaid: „Hi, do not intertwinethesebranchdetails, in briefyourmaritalimportant matterfelt relieved that givesmeand that's the end, Iwill certainly look foroutstandingpleasantmy deartoyou.”
江枫说道:“嗨,不要纠结这些旁枝末节,总之你的婚姻大事放心交给我就是了,我一定会给你找个优秀的如意郎君。”riverXuesaid: „You, ifreallyhasthisskill, firstasked a sister-in-lawto saytousagain!”
江雪说道:“你要是真有这个本事,就先给我们找个大嫂再说吧!”riverFengnods saying: „Thisisnatural, in the future during sister-in-lawIhave been seeking, nearbyseveralvillages, had not foundto suit, whenoursister-in-law'speople. After Ireceive the matchmakermoney that the firstcustomergives, Iprepare the county city and county cityperipheralthesevillageslookto look,lookcanfind the suitablebig brother’sobject.”
江枫点头道:“这是当然,未来大嫂我已经在寻找当中了,不过附近的几个乡镇,都没找到适合当我们大嫂的人。等我拿到第一个客户给的媒人钱后,我就准备到县城以及县城周边的那些乡镇找找看,看看能不能找到适合大哥的对象。”riverXuesaidwith amazement: „Do youalsocomereal?”
江雪惊讶道:“你还来真的啊?”riverFengsaid with a smile: „Youthink that Iam cracking a joke? The matter of lifetime importance that waits to arrange the big brother, youwill not suspectat the appointed timeyouryounger brother I am acting as a matchmakerthisstrength!”
江枫笑道:“你以为我在开玩笑呢?等安排好大哥的终身大事,到时你就不会怀疑你弟弟我在做媒这一块的实力了!”
The riversnowwas a little fooled, said: „Good, Iwait.”
江雪有点被唬住了,说道:“好吧,那我就拭目以待。”
