Siheyuan starts to eat the old man

After the two of them exchanged a few words of greeting, the director of the Sanhe Materials Bureau and the director of the Communist Party hurried in with a few people.

Zhou Rengui saw Cui Dake lying on the ground with a bruised nose and a swollen face. The military chief who had come to rescue him earlier was chatting and laughing with a young man, so he immediately understood what happened.

Although I don't know why Cui Dake is lying on the ground, but it doesn't matter, as long as Li Ping'an is fine.

"Oh, Section Chief Li, Section Chief Li, I'm really sorry. I'm here to apologize to you on behalf of our material bureau. It's all a misunderstanding today. Don't worry, we will deal with this bad guy Cui Dake seriously."

Seeing Li Pingan looking over, Zhou Rengui came up with an apology, and pointed out that Cui Dake would be dealt with seriously. The voice-over said that Cui Dake was finished, and this tone would definitely help Li Pingan.

Cui Dake, who was lying on the ground at this time, after hearing Zhou Rengui's words, realized that he was completely finished. Thinking of his fate, Cui Dake's eyes darkened, and he passed out suddenly.

The next thing is very simple. After greeting the leaders of the local materials bureau for a while, Li Pingan refused the invitation for dinner on the grounds that he was going back to Sijiu City soon. Accompanied by Zhou Rengui and others, he started He left the material bureau compound with his jeep.

Li Pingan didn't care about how to deal with it later. Later, when he saw Nanyi again, he heard that Cui Dake had a miserable life. After leaving the Material Bureau, he was often targeted and dealt with. In the end, he couldn't get along in Sanhe and went back to the countryside in despair.

When Li Pingan returned home, he immediately reported to Ding Qiunan the news of his father-in-law's work. After hearing the notification that he was ready to be on duty at any time, Ding Qiunan took Li Pingan's old father-in-law to do some ideological work, and then followed Li Pingan back to the fourth quarter. nine cities.

On the third day after returning to Sijiu City, Li Pingan received a call from Teacher Wang here, and Ding Rushan's job was confirmed.

After all, he is the father-in-law of his own student. Teacher Wang still takes good care of Ding Rushan. He is arranged for a job in the staff hospital of a large state-owned factory in Shancheng, and he will report before NO.15 this month.

Mountain City is the city with the best conditions among all third-tier cities. Mountain City already has a foundation. During the Anti-Japanese War, Baldy had been operating in Mountain City for a long time, and the infrastructure was relatively complete.In addition to this third-line construction, the mountain city belongs to the key areas, and the conditions naturally belong to the top-notch batch, which can't be regarded as difficult.

After some thanks, Li Pingan told Ding Qiunan the news. Hearing that the work had been done, Ding Qiunan didn't show a happy expression on his face. On the same day, he asked Li Pingan to drive a jeep to Sanhe to take Ding Rushan and his wife to Sijiucheng. .

In the next few days, Ding Qiunan took leave of absence from the factory, and accompanied the old couple wandering around in Forty-Nine City.

After enjoying all the delicious and fun things in Sijiu City, Ding Qiunan was worried that he would not be able to buy any good things in the place, which would make the old couple suffer, so he bought a lot of things in large and small bags at the department store. Both, in just one week, it cost Li Pingan and Ding Qiunan two months' salary.

The combined wages of the two of them for two months amounted to over three hundred. This is not a small amount, and this is how many workers earn a year's wages.

That is to say, Li Ping'an's family is rich, and he doesn't usually spend money, and he has too much other income. If he is in a family that usually receives a dead salary, the daughter-in-law spends more than 300 yuan on his mother's family at once, so why not quarrel?
Carrying big bags and small bags, the old couple was sent to the train. Ding Qiunan was crying with his arms around Ding's mother. Li Pingan persuaded him a lot before he stopped crying.

Before boarding the train, the father-in-law was going to work in a city more than 1000 miles away. As my son-in-law, I had to say that I took out 200 yuan from my warehouse and [-] catties of national grain picked up from Lou's family. ticket.

Ding Rushan's eyes lit up when he saw these bills, and the parting mood dissipated quite a bit, and he called out one by one for his son-in-law.

With the 200 yuan from Li Pingan, plus the [-] yuan given by Ding Qiunan last night, this trip to work, not to mention the things my daughter bought, I took [-] yuan in cash alone. Ding Rushan has not seen so many for a long time. If you have money, don't be happy.

"Don't send it off, don't send it off, you two go back quickly, the train is about to leave." Ding Rushan opened the window in the sleeper car that Li Ping'an entrusted, and turned to Ding Qiunan who were still waiting on the platform. Said.

Ding Qiunan looked at his parents who were about to leave, and waved goodbye reluctantly: "Dad, Mom, remember to write to me when you arrive in the mountain city. If there is anything urgent, please send me a telegram. Don't be reluctant to spend money."

"Don't worry, after your mother and I settle down, I'll write you a letter to report that you're safe." The train started gradually, and Ding Rushan stood at the window, shouting at Ding Qiunan.

After seeing off Ding's father and Ding's mother, Li Pingan helped Ding Qiunan, who was a little sad, walk down the platform slowly and walked outside the train.

After all, there are a lot of people in Huaguo, no matter what age the train station is crowded with people, on the short way out, Li Pingan protected Ding Qiunan all the way to squeeze out from the crowd.

Not only do you have to be careful of someone bumping into Ding Qiunan, but you also have to be careful of pigs and sheep running around on the platform. Pigs and sheep can get on the train these days. , can only be driven on the train.

After all, animals are not humans. When seeing so many people, sometimes they are frightened, and it is unavoidable to run wildly.

In the next few days, Li Pingan could clearly feel Ding Qiunan's depression, even his appetite was bad, but there was nothing he could do, his parents went to live in a city more than 1000 miles away, and then until Ding Rushan retired In the past ten years, the number of times we could meet each other can be counted on the fingers, so it is no wonder that Ding Qiunan is not lost.

Fortunately, this lost emotion recovered automatically in a short time.

"Peace, Qiu Nan, I've passed my vacation, and I'm getting married the day after tomorrow. Remember to come and eat my wedding wine when the time comes."

When Li Pingan came back from get off work in the evening, Li Pingan had just had dinner and Ding Qiunan returned to his room. Wang Shengli came in happily riding a bicycle and informed them of their marriage.

When the marriage certificates of the two were obtained a few days ago, they took advantage of the lunch break to go to the street office to get back. The two are legally husband and wife, but the Chinese tradition is that after the wedding, This is a formal marriage.

Fa Xiao is finally getting married, and Li Pingan, a good brother, naturally wants to help, so he quickly asked, "Okay, have you prepared all the ingredients? Is there anything I need to help with?"

"I know you're capable, so I'm here to find you. I'm going to trouble you with the ingredients for my wedding banquet."

"No problem, it's just a wedding banquet, it's nothing." At this point, Li Pingan paused, and said hesitantly, "Your parents really won't come to the wedding?"

Hearing Li Pingan mention this, Wang Shengli nodded with a bitter smile on his face.

Seeing Wang Shengli like this, Li Pingan didn't continue to say anything, but went out and called Shazhu in, and the three chatted about the preparations for the wedding banquet together.

Many things have changed. Marriage now has nothing to do with love, but only about family background.

In many places, before going on a blind date, the introducer first takes the parents of both parties to the police station to check their household registration, and then the man and woman will have the next step to meet.

In the case of Ran Qiuye, naturally he couldn't pass the hurdle of Wang Shengli's parents, who firmly opposed his son marrying a girl from such a family, which made it very unpleasant for a time.

If it wasn't for his determination to not marry Ran Qiuye, and forcibly resisting his parents' barriers, this matter would really be scandalous.

It was really not easy for Wang Shengli to get married, not only because of the pressure from his parents, but even his marriage application was approved by Li Pingan begging Chen Youfu to come forward to ask Luo Hanzhan, otherwise they would I can't even get a marriage certificate.

Due to Ran Qiuye's family problems, not many people attended the wedding this time. Wang Shengli only prepared two tables, and the three quickly discussed the wedding banquet.

The vegetarian dishes at the wedding banquet can all go through the channel of Shazhu. For the meat, Li Pingan patted his chest and promised to take care of it for him. Other things like tobacco and alcohol, Wang Shengli will take care of it himself.

Everything was discussed properly, and when Wang Shengli was about to leave, Li Pingan stopped him and said, "I can drive the jeep from the factory to welcome the relatives the day after tomorrow, and I can support you more or less when the time comes."

"Forget it, I discussed it with Qiuye. The simpler our wedding, the better. I didn't even prepare the convoy to welcome the bride. When the time comes, I'll ride my bicycle and bring Qiuye back. I won't cause you any trouble. "

Looking at Wang Shengli's firm eyes, Li Pingan could understand what he was thinking, so he didn't persuade him much, and nodded to let him go.

Sending Sha Zhu and Wang Shengli away, Ding Qiunan sighed with emotion about the difficulty of Wang Shengli and Ran Qiuye: "You said yes, how did you catch up with this? Marriage is all about the love between two people, how can you be with me?"

"Stop, there must be a gatekeeper in your mouth, and you can't talk nonsense"

Seeing that Ding Qiunan wanted to criticize, Li Pingan quickly stopped Ding Qiunan from saying what he didn't say, and he dared not say such words.

Hearing Li Ping'an's reminder, Ding Qiunan realized that what he said was wrong, and he kept his mouth shut about the difficulty of the two of them, but started discussing what they should give when they got married.

"What can I give you? Isn't it just the old ones? Choose from the things that others give you when we get married, and just find a suitable set and give it away," Li Pingan said casually.

I know that for a period of time after the re-opening, the wedding gifts are basically the old-fashioned ones, enamel basins with happy characters, thermos bottles with happy characters, these things have been popular in the domestic wedding market for decades.

Even people in rural areas in the 90s gave this stuff away when they got married.

Ding Qiunan nodded, and followed his advice to search for the presents he received at the time of the wedding, and quickly picked out an enamel jar and a thermos pot. These two things are completely handy, and they are considered important gifts these days.

On the bright side, Wang Shengli is the savior of Shazhu's son.Therefore, Shazhu is very active about Wang Shengli's marriage.

The next day, he took a special trip to ask for leave from the factory and ran around to help Wang Shengli prepare the ingredients. After buying the ingredients, he went to Wang Shengli's house to build a stove non-stop, more caring than when he got married.

On the other hand, Li Pingan continued to work in the factory calmly. After sending Ding Qiunan home after get off work, when he went to Wang Shengli's house, he found a place where no one was around, walked into the warehouse, and took out enough food from the warehouse. fresh meat.

The only thing that was brought out was pork and two grass carp. As for the seafood in the warehouse, Li Pingan didn't intend to take it out at all. It's not easy for the two of them to get married. If the wedding banquet is high-profile, it will easily cause trouble for the young couple.

When Li Pingan rushed to Wang Shengli's house with the fish, Sha Zhu had already brought Ma Hua there to prepare materials for tomorrow's wedding banquet.

Seeing Li Pingan came back with the fish, Shazhu hurriedly put down the kitchen knife and went up to him, and took the fish from Li Pingan with a smile: "Oh, this piece of meat is really fat, Brother Pingan, you still have the ability to get it. It’s amazing to have such a big piece of fresh meat back.”

"Brother Zhuzi, my mission is complete, and I will leave the rest to you."

"Wang Gong'an is my family's benefactor. I have nothing else to do. Tomorrow's wedding banquet must be beautiful for Wang Gong'an."

Wang Shengli hadn't come back yet, so Li Pingan helped Ma Hua chop vegetables while waiting for Wang Shengli to come back.

It should be said that the police are really busy now, until Sha Zhu and Ma Hua settled everything, Wang Shengli arrived late on his bicycle.

Afterwards, the three of them helped Wang Shengli clean up the house, and then declined Wang Shengli's invitation to eat, and left Wang Shengli's courtyard.

Neither Sha Zhu nor Ma Hua had bicycles. Li Pingan drove Ma Hua back in a jeep before returning home with Sha Zhu.

Since the wedding day was not a weekend, Li Pingan asked for leave in the afternoon, and drove Ding Qiunan to Wang Shengli's home early the next day.

When Li Pingan arrived, Wang Shengli was standing outside to greet the guests. Li Pingan and Ding Qiunan gave gifts consciously without Wang Shengli's greeting, and grabbed a handful of melon seeds and found a place to sit and chat.

When the people arrived, Wang Shengli asked Li Pingan to help him. He rode a bicycle alone and went straight to Ran Qiuye's house to pick up the bride.

After picking up the bride back, Li Pingan and Ding Qiunan went out to watch the fun. Their wedding was really simple, one person went to the other, and they didn't even bring a dowry box.

Looking at the situation, Li Pingan couldn't help but nodded secretly. After all, this woman Ran Qiuye is a scholar, but it's not simple, her style and EQ are both on the line.

These days, no matter how the family conditions are, they still have to bring a dowry to the married daughter. If there is no dowry, the neighbors outside may not know what to say.

If the Ran family really didn't give a dowry, Li Pingan decided not to believe it. Ran Qiuye didn't wear a dowry on the surface, in order to help Wang Shengli attract firepower, and splash dirty water on his head to protect Wang Shengli. (end of this chapter)
