The matchmaker cackled a few times, rhythmically waving the handkerchief in her hand, stirring up a scented breeze. In her shrill voice, she exclaimed, "Old sister here must be the matriarch of this family, right? Listen to what you're saying. I've been in this business for decades; how could I possibly deliver happiness to the wrong doorstep? It's the Gu Family at the end of Da Feng Village."
Having finished speaking, she then turned to the two boys behind her, "The family we're delivering happiness to has arrived. Start playing the joyous drums, quick!"
The two boys, each with a drum the size of a face hanging from their bodies, immediately began to beat the drums—thud, thud, thud—at her command.
Hearing the drumming, the matchmaker started singing with her voice raised.
Third Grandma hurriedly opened the door and chastised them, "Stop it right now, who allowed you to play the drums and sing? Stop immediately."
