In the ordinary world, I am the son-in-law of the Sun family

Chapter 277 Marriage Events
This time, Tan Lei heard everything clearly, and the alcohol dissipated in an instant.

He subconsciously rolled a dry cigarette with homework paper and held it in his mouth, his hands trembling uncontrollably, feeling his brain was empty.

Deng Liping looked at him puzzled, and asked, "Brother Lei, what's the matter with you? Why do you look scared?"

That's right, Deng Liping guessed right, Tan Lei is really scared now!
Although he had always thought about marrying Deng Liping, when Deng Liping brought it up, his first reaction was not surprise, but fear!
Don't get me wrong, my friend!

Tan Lei's feelings for Deng Liping are serious, but after all, he is just a young man who has just grown up, and it is normal for him to be unable to accept the burden of marriage for a while.

The word marriage is easy to say, but only those who have experienced it know the weight contained in it.

It is said that when a man truly matures, he gets married, because after marriage, his shoulders must become tough enough to carry a family, or even three families together!
Therefore, it is natural for Tan Lei to feel afraid. He is thinking about what to do if he can't afford this marriage?
But immediately, he came to his senses, this is a stage that must go through, and he must also resist this marriage!

He has lived with Deng Liping for a year, and Deng Liping has given him the most precious thing. As a man, he has the obligation to shoulder his responsibilities.

Deng Liping looked at Tan Lei who had been silent all this time, and gently pushed him, "Brother Lei, what's wrong with you, do you not want to get married?"

Then, without waiting for his answer, she uttered all her thoughts and let him know why she suddenly wanted to get married.

The two have developed to this point, even though they are still young, it is indeed time to get married.

Moreover, their age is only compared to urban residents. In rural areas, it is normal for them to get married and have children at the age of eighteen.

Tan Lei lowered his head and smiled at her, and said softly, "Let's get married."

A sour feeling came to the tip of her nose, and Deng Liping's eyes were red, she buried her head in Tan Lei's arms, and asked with a sob: "Brother Lei, are you serious?"

Tan Lei stroked her head, nodded, sighed and said, "Unfortunately, it was clearly agreed at the beginning that I would marry you in a new cave."

Deng Liping shook her head, "I don't care about Brother Lei, as long as we are together, I am satisfied, and there is no need to bother Xinyao."

She raised her head and said with a silly smile: "Besides, I think the cave dwelling we have now is not bad. Although it's a little smaller, a little old, and a little broken, it's very safe to live in."

Tan Lei couldn't help hugging her tightly, and said affectionately, "Li Ping, you are so kind."

Deng Liping hugged his waist with her backhand, "Brother Lei, when will we get married?"

Tan Lei threw the dry tobacco in his mouth in the yard, "Let's see how much we have saved."

The two walked into the cave, and found a wad of money and food stamps under the kang bed.

A small part of these money and food stamps were given to them by their family members when they came to Guanzi Village, and most of the rest were saved by them this year.

Deng Liping worked as a broadcaster in the brigade, and was calculated on the basis of seven work points per day, plus a monthly subsidy of three yuan.

Tan Lei works as a teacher at school, and is calculated on the basis of full work points every day, with a monthly subsidy of [-] cents. The income of both of them is very good in Guanzi Village, which is very enviable.

However, Tan Lei only worked as a teacher for half a year, while Deng Liping worked as an announcer for a year. The two counted, and after deducting one year's expenses, there was a total of seventy-three yuan and fifty-two cents!

In addition, the food exchanged by the two people has also saved a lot. After all, both of them have a lot of work points and have no children, so of course they have saved a lot.

This amount of money is quite a lot, not any family can come up with so much money!

It's just that this amount of money is far from enough to cover a cave dwelling, let alone a stone kiln, and even an earthen kiln can't be used.

Deng Liping happily took the money and asked, "Brother Lei, is this money enough for us to get married?"

Tan Lei murmured: "Marriage should be enough. When the time comes, we will have a table for dinner. We must invite Brother Wang, Uncle Donghe, Uncle Zhu Guo, and the cadre Liu Yi. These families have nothing to do with us. closest."

Deng Liping nodded, "At that time, I will borrow the round table from Brother Wang's house, as well as the stools, bowls and chopsticks. You men can sit at the table and eat, and we girls can eat on the stove."

Tan Lei's eyes lit up, "That's right, Big Brother Wang's house is complete, just lend it to them when the time comes, this pheasant just comes in handy, it can be a main dish."

"In addition, we have to wear new clothes, and we don't have enough vermicelli at home. It's best to change to some pork."

"I heard that for such a big event, you must have pork stewed vermicelli, otherwise the guests will laugh at you."

Hearing this, Deng Liping quickly took out a piece of homework paper and wrote on it with a pencil the things needed for marriage.

Tan Lei re-rolled a dry cigarette and held it in his mouth. He said while thinking: "In addition, I have to buy some red paper and candies to keep at home, and the mats and bedding have to be replaced. It still needs to be arranged."

Deng Liping nodded in agreement, her hands kept moving, and she was already imagining the scene of herself wearing new clothes and living in a new house in her mind.

"New clothes, pork vermicelli, red cloth candy, matting."

Tan Lei muttered over and over, "It's better to have a firecracker, anyway, it's a wedding, so it must be loud, and two dishes are not enough. There are so many people, so I have to prepare a lot of food."

"Also, even though we are out of town and our parents can't come, we still have to send them a telegram to inform them of our marriage."

Tan Lei stroked Deng Liping's head, and said with a smile, "Although I have no money, no matter what I say, I still have to send twenty yuan to your parents as a gift money."

"Twenty yuan!" Deng Liping pursed her lips, "Is it too much? We don't have much money. Don't spend it all when we get married. We still have to live."

Tan Lei sighed, "In the countryside, the gift money of [-] yuan is definitely not enough, but our parents are both in Huangyuan City, and you know the atmosphere in the city, [-] yuan is still tight, I don't know you What will my parents say about me?"

Deng Liping hugged Tan Lei, and said in a low voice: "I don't care what they say about you, anyway, marriage is between us, and they can't object."

Tan Lei smiled and continued to think about getting married. Only then did the two realize that if they really want to get married, there are too many things to prepare, and the savings of seventy yuan may not be enough.

And just in case, they have to ask Brother Wang to see what else they need to get married.
