As the Spring Festival approaches, "marriage issues" seem to have become a topic that some young people can't hide from even if they want to.
Recently, a video of "Girls are arranged to go on blind dates 20 times a day when they return to their hometown" in Taikang County, Zhoukou City, Henan Province became popular on the Internet. Ms. Zhu, the person involved, wrote in a caption: "Dating blind dates, I see 13 people in a afternoon. I am really tired.
11 On the afternoon of the afternoon of 11th, Ms. Zhu, a reporter from Jimu News, said that she knew that parents had expectations, and although she did not like blind dates, she would not resist.
At present, she has been on blind dates for more than 30 times, and some netizens said that she is "high-sighted".
In her own opinion, she must not only be responsible for herself, but also for the man. "I would rather have more contact now than have a bad life after getting married."

Jimu News: How old are you this year?
Ms. Zhu: 22 years old, and you will be 23 years old after the Chinese New Year. I had been working in Shenzhen before, and only resigned this year and returned to my hometown in Taikang County, Henan Province.
Jimu News: What's going on with blind dates?
Ms. Zhu: Many girls of the same age in the village have been married, and some even have children. Actually, when I was in Shenzhen, my family didn’t mention blind dates much, but as soon as I got home this year, my elders started to arrange things, hoping that I could find a good home as soon as possible.
Jimu News: When you posted your personal video, you said, "I saw 13 at noon." How many blind dates did you go on the last day?
Ms. Zhu: A full 20 games. I got up at around 7 a.m. on the 10th. After washing up, I put on light makeup. I think this is the most basic respect for my blind date partner.
Our local blind date custom is that the man and his parents come to see the woman. It starts at around 8 am, and the man starts to come one after another. It is not until after 5 pm. At noon, two more families come to our house when cooking and eating.
Jimu News: Are the blind date partners all found by the elders at home?
Ms. Zhu: I only asked matchmakers for help at home. The candidates for blind dates, including the specific time of meeting, are decided by the matchmakers.

A brief meeting can only be "embarrassing"
Jimu News: What will happen when you meet?
Ms. Zhu: All the boys who came to the blind date were from nearby villages, but I don’t know most of them. When strangers meet, especially when there are parents of both parties, it is quite embarrassing to be honest. When chatting, it is just about some of their respective basic situations, such as age, work, interests and hobbies, etc., commonly known as "embarrassing chat". Some meetings may end in more than ten minutes.
Jimu News: Are there any of the more boys who like it?
Ms. Zhu: Yes, we exchanged contact information and may have more contact later. In fact, I don’t know what kind of partner I want to find, but it depends more on the feeling of getting along between the two.
Jimu News: How many blind dates have you been there so far?
Ms. Zhu: Actually, it is far from as many as everyone imagined. Recently, my family started entrusting matchmakers to arrange blind dates. Before the 20 blind dates on the 10th, I had about 10 blind dates. Today (11th), I received a call from my father and met another blind date partner, which totaled about 30.
Jimu News: Some netizens in your video comment section left their personal blind date information, and everyone seems to regard it as a platform for interactive dating?
Ms. Zhu: Haha, I saw it. If there are really netizens who can get out of singleness in this way, I will definitely be happy for them.
is not "high vision" and is responsible for the man
Jimu News: Some netizens comment on your appearance, and some people say you "high vision". What do you think of these voices?
Ms. Zhu: My mouth grows on others. I can’t control what others say. I have a relatively calm mind and try not to care about some voices.In addition, I am not "high-sighted". In my personal opinion, the reason why I have so many blind dates is because I have to be responsible not only to myself, but also to the man. I would rather have more contact now than not get along well after getting married.
Jimu News: Are you resistant to blind dates?
Ms. Zhu: I understand my family’s mood very well and know that they have expectations. Although I don’t particularly like blind dates, I will not be resistant.
Jimu News: Will your family give some advice on emotional issues?
Ms. Zhu: I have a younger brother who is 20 years old this year. He sometimes gives me some advice, but in the end I will still follow my own heart. 2023 is my zodiac year, and we generally don’t let the bride get married in the zodiac year, so the elders in the family hope that I can complete my major events in 2022 or 2024.
