Playing Matchmaker and Sharing Gossip in the 1980S

[Main story complete] Ming Xi accidentally transmigrated to the 1980s and became the daughter of a matchmaker famous far and wide. As soon as she arrived, someone came to make a scene, claiming that the man her mother had introduced was impotent. She immediately dragged the man to the hospital for an examination. And just like that, Ming Xi stumbled into the matchmaking business. On little Matchmaker Ming’s first day at work, a young woman awkwardly said she had a boyfriend and wanted to choose her own partner instead of having an arranged marriage. Ming Xi introduced her to a handsome young man, and the woman blushed and immediately dumped her pig-faced boyfriend. On little Matchmaker Ming’s second day at work, a young man whose family opposed his marriage asked her for help. She wrote a moving, heartbreaking tale of passionate love and sent it to a newspaper. After reading it, the young man’s mother wept and said she didn’t want to be the wicked mother-in-law who broke up a pair of lovebirds. On little Matchmaker Ming’s third day at work, her matchmaking was so successful that the neighborhood office and the Women’s Federation both came knocking to recruit her. Just as little Matchmaker Ming was happily gossiping away (crossed out), working enthusiastically on her matchmaking business, the younger son of the Wei family in the alley showed up and asked her to find him a partner. Ming Xi pulled out her files and was just about to ask what sort of person he liked when Wei Ning raised an eyebrow. “I like someone just like you.” - To keep a major client, little Matchmaker Ming sacrificed herself and agreed to go on a blind date with Wei Ning. She never expected the guy to be a mama’s boy, constantly saying, “My mom says...” and “My mom says...” Ming Xi gritted her teeth. What was he showing off for? She was a mama’s girl herself. She spoke up: “My mom says a man who keeps saying ‘my mom says’ is no good.” Without hesitation, Wei Ning replied, “Your mom is right.” Ming Xi: “??? Who are you calling Mom? That’s my mom, my mom!” Reader’s guide: 1. Strong female lead, weaker male lead: a super-strong, mama’s-girl heroine and a frail, mama’s-boy hero. 2. An 80s period novel, where the petty squabbles of compound life and messy romance go hand in hand.

Xu, the village accountant, was shrewd and calculating, but when it came to his own family, he was a muddled fool. He doted on his adopted daughter and tormented his biological daughter. And that wasn’t even mentioning how the whole village was caught up in superstition, calling the Wang family’s little granddaughter a blessed child sent from heaven and treating her as an extremely precious treasure. Later, Zhou Man’s father had to clean up the villagers’ messes and became so exhausted that he fell ill and was hospitalized. Zhou Man was appointed in an emergency to serve as acting brigade leader.
