National Tide 1980.

Chapter 273

Wait until the man and the woman are almost ready to live.

After that, it's time to plan the wedding.

In fact, for ordinary people, a wedding is actually more important than a marriage certificate.

Because this is a public act.

Without such a customary ceremony, people would not think that newlyweds are official couples.

Even in the special period when supplies are extremely scarce and there is no banquet, guests can only be given candy and cigarettes.

Even for marriage, "no leave, no gifts, no extravagance" is advocated, and blessings are given to the era of changing customs and daily necessities.

Such a ceremony must also be held, absolutely indispensable.

Even the elders in the family will not allow a couple who have obtained a marriage certificate but have not "worked" to live together.

This is the position of the marriage ceremony in the minds of our countrymen.

Then it is conceivable that after the reform and opening up, the people's livelihood and the economy will improve day by day.

Common people's weddings will inevitably become more solemn day by day, and they will pay more attention to ostentation.

After all, it is a major event in life, no matter whether it is a man or a woman, who would not want to have a good time?

So naturally, the banquets were resumed, the clothes of the newcomers became decent and trendy, and the process of meeting the bride became more and more lively.

Only the wedding ceremony has not changed much.

There are still a few procedures where the officiant and the leader speak, the couple bows to their parents, and the guests light cigarettes and toast.

At most, let the young people have a bridal chamber at the end.

To put it bluntly, our people's attitude towards life is always based on benefits.

All people really care about is the entertainment and the chance to eat and drink that a wedding provides.

As for the specific situation in 1982.

People have begun to wave goodbye to the way of using tricycles and bicycles to meet their relatives.

It is no longer the era of the 70s when only eight bicycles could support the scene.

The level of wedding cars has been significantly improved.

Those who have connections usually ask friends to find connections and borrow cars for appearance.

It doesn't matter, I will hire a taxi with my own money, and it's a luxury.

It was thanks to Counselor Ning Weimin that Bian Jianjun and Li Xiuzhi were so respectable when they got married.

Otherwise, the Bian family's imagination is limited by poverty, and the young couple probably still don't know what it's like to be a car.

Of course, for Zhang Shihui, no matter what, it was not a problem.

Although he doesn't have a good father, his waist is thick.

It's a breeze to hire a few taxis for a few bucks, not a problem at all.

In addition, the social connections he met in business were not old or young, they belonged to Lu Ziye's kind of people.

On the big day of his wedding, he bought a few cars to meet the bride, and no one of these friends would shirk.

But it has to be said that it is precisely because of Zhang Shihui's special situation that she has many friends in society and few relatives in her own family.

What to do with his wedding banquet is a bit difficult to decide.

Because first of all, like ordinary people, setting up a greenhouse, hiring a chef, and setting up banquets in your own compound, there are a lot of things in and out.

Too trivial, too exhausting.Zhang Shihui alone can't play around.

And his parents work in a military industrial enterprise that needs to be kept secret in the Northwest, so it is not easy to ask for leave.

It would be nice to be able to leave two days in advance and come back to attend my son's wedding.

It was impossible to be of any help.

So, from the very beginning, Zhang Shihui planned to find a time-honored restaurant to arrange the table for the wedding, which would be both ostentatious and worry-free.

Unfortunately, the actual operation was not as easy as he imagined.

Unexpected troubles have arisen, and the money can't be spent.

Dare to feel that no one has the ability to hold a wedding in a restaurant these days.

At that time, the service industry in the capital city could not keep up with the tide of returning to the city, and it was overcrowded regardless of food, drink, housing and transportation.

No manager of the restaurant is willing to take his business.

For one thing, people felt that so many people came to eat together and waited on them with great fanfare, so they were too tired to panic.

Neither the kitchen nor the service staff will be happy, so why let the employees feel dissatisfied with themselves?

The second is that some concepts of people at that time still haven't changed.

Many people think that there is a certain risk of public opinion in rejecting individual customers for the sake of two people getting married.

If you run into a customer who is more serious, or if you run into a reporter who is troublesome, you will be asking for trouble for yourself.

As a result, Zhang Shihui went to several companies to ask for this, but they were all in vain, and they refused because they couldn't arrange it.

Fortunately, Chongwenmen Hotel has a joint venture with Bianyifang Roast Duck Restaurant, so Zhang Shihui can speak in her unit.

But if you do this, another problem arises.

Because since the wedding is held in the restaurant of the unit, the leaders, colleagues, and acquaintances from other departments cannot be pulled down.

Originally, the guests invited were not young or old, so after all the calculations, at least forty tables should be prepared.

What is this scene?

The reason why Liu Weijing's parents shook their heads was that they felt sorry for the money for Zhang Shihui.

You must know that holding wedding banquets these days is a loss-making business. The more banquets are held, the more losses will be suffered, and many gifts will not be collected.

Calculated on the basis of a 55 table package, the banquet fee alone costs more than 2000 yuan.

That's really a waste of time throwing away the big TV. No matter how much money you can earn, you have to feel sorry for it.

What Zhang Shihui was ambiguous about was that the scene was too big, and she felt that she couldn't hold it.

Although he is not afraid of spending money, he also wants to show his face on the most important day of his life and make a big deal.

But he is not stupid.

Having been with Ning Weimin for a long time, he also understands the truth of not revealing money.

It wouldn't matter if such a big wedding was secretly held elsewhere.

Because the people he invites are not only relatives, but also friends with interests, and colleagues and classmates who really have friendship.

No one would wonder where his money came from.

But if it falls into the eyes of the unit leaders and colleagues who can't talk to each other, it will be different.

He believes that many people will feel jealous and jealous, and then think about certain things.

If there is no reasonable excuse for this, there will be endless troubles.

So Zhang Shihui had nothing to do.

He can only discuss with Ning Weimin and Qiao Wanlin, two people who know his details, to see how to deal with this matter.

Needless to say, this move is a wise move.

Qiao Wanlin and Ning Weimin are both human sperm, and each gave him an idea.

According to Qiao Wanlin, he can help find a canteen in a unit through his relationship.

If you can, do it elsewhere.

If it really doesn't work, I suggest Zhang Shihui to release the news in advance.

Just make up nonsense, say that there is an overseas relative in the family, and that's it.

With a reasonable excuse, no one will get to the bottom of it.

As long as Zhang Shihui keeps his own place and stops doing it, it's no big deal.

At the same time, Qiao Wanlin also had good news for Zhang Shihui and Ning Weimin.

He said that because of his outstanding work performance, he was valued by his superiors, and he would soon be transferred to the District Service Bureau.

If Zhang Shihui is willing, he can also transfer Zhang Shihui to work in another unit, such as the Chongwenmen Hotel opposite.

However, Ning Weimin said that it is not Zhang Shihui's personality to endure humiliation.

He thought that since Zhang Shihui had been thinking about this matter for so long, if he didn't do it once, Zhang Shihui would definitely regret it in the future.

That being the case, just be generous and do whatever you want.

It's better to let your temper go in the unit and leave a vigorous legend.

After finishing the work, he resigned and followed him to Pierre Carton, so he would have it.

It is actually beneficial to be free from the shackles of state-owned units.

That is how to make money is complete freedom.

If Zhang Shihui is reluctant to give up her current source of income, this is the most suitable choice.

Besides, it's not a problem to work night shift all the time, it will ruin your health.

He is already married, so he can't affect the quality of the next generation...

In short, Qiao Wanlin and Ning Weimin have different ideas, although it cannot be said that this problem can be completely solved, it is so in line with Zhang Shihui's wishes.

But at least it gave him a bottom line and made him feel at ease.

He didn't understand anything else, but he was sure of one thing anyway.

The worst result, isn't it just a matter of eating in another place, so let's do it...

What's interesting is that Zhang Shihui has made up his mind, while Liu Weijing's parents are still worried.

In private, the old couple honestly and endlessly asked their daughter how much foundation Zhang Shihui had.

It's not for anything else, just because of this marriage, the old couple also have their own accounts.

Counting back and forth, they thought that Zhang Shihui had already spent a lot.

I'm afraid that the son-in-law will swell his face to pretend to be a fat man, and the expenses will be too high to make a loss. Wouldn't that be a pain for his daughter?

But even though Liu Weijing deliberately prevaricated, he only vaguely said that Zhang Shihui had [-] cash in his hand.

He didn't have the nerve to tell them that Ning Weimin had just paid back another [-] in order to fulfill Zhang Shihui.

It was enough for the old couple to gasp.

Liu Weijing's mother was dumbfounded.

Liu Weijing's father's dentures almost fell out.

1 yuan is considered rich!

I didn't expect to buy so many things, and this kid still has a net worth of two million yuan!

What a great ability!Isn't he the rich man?

So after a while, the old couple talked to their daughter at the same time.

"Don't be stupid, you have to give birth to him quickly, do you hear me, you have to tie his heart."

"Yes! After marriage, you should have children as soon as possible! Only with children can a family be truly stable."
