So. I suggest a song for Yong Ping, since I recently realized that Matchmaking was a thing. A song sung for matchmaking purposes by young girls before they're old enough to meet the matchmaker, just to to start getting used to the idea that they're going to meet the matchmaker when they're older. Because of this, most older women would know the song from their youth, popularizing it among both men and women.
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Make me a match, Find me a find, Catch me a catch Matchmaker, Matchmaker Look through your book, And make me a perfect match
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, I'll bring the veil, You bring the groom, Slender and pale. Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be, The envy of all I see.
For Papa, Make him a scholar.
For mama, Make him rich as a king.
For me, well, I wouldn't holler If he were as handsome as anything.
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Make me a match, Find me a find, Catch me a catch, Night after night in the dark I'm alone So find me match, Of my own.

Make me a match,
Find me a find,
Catch me a catch
Matchmaker, Matchmaker
Look through your book,
And make me a perfect match
I'll bring the veil,
You bring the groom,
Slender and pale.
Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be,
The envy of all I see.
Make him a scholar.
Make him rich as a king.
I wouldn't holler
If he were as handsome as anything.
Make me a match,
Find me a find,
Catch me a catch,
Night after night in the dark I'm alone
So find me match,
Of my own.
