Transmigrating to the 70’s: The Military Wife As A Farmer

On the 30th day of the new year, Han Mingxiu got up early in the morning, brought Xiaosuo and Xiaoying and the others, and posted couplets and money to the house.

Their parents have been dead for three years in this life, the period of filial piety has passed, and the family can put up couplets and hang money. Full of festive flavors.

Han Mingcui also got up early in the morning and made dumplings filled with sauerkraut and pork for her sister. This is the last year that my sister has spent at home. She has to take good care of her and let her have a good year.

In addition to her sister's favorite dumplings with sauerkraut and oil, she also cooked four dishes, one smoked rabbit meat. only), cut a plate of crystal skin jelly, steamed a chicken cake, and fried a plate of braised pork belly.

During the meal, Han Mingcui said to her sister in a persuasive manner: "Xiu'er, you are getting married tomorrow. After you get married, you should get along well with Jianfeng and his uncle and aunt. They are elders. Don't be serious with others when it's shallow..."

When Han Mingxiu heard the elder sister's remarks, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he thought to himself: You respect your elders and your in-laws, but what happened in the end? It's not like there is no place for people to bully.

It's enough to teach her this theory!

Regarding the issue of filial piety to parents-in-law or elders, Han Mingxiu's attitude has always been very clear, that is, treat whoever is.

If that kind of virtuous, kind and generous old man, she will definitely abide by the status of the younger generation and respect her well. But she wouldn't respect that kind of old man who became more and more crooked!

Seeing her bowing her head and not speaking, the eldest sister thought she had heard her words, and continued: "When a girl gets married, her parents usually prepare a few boxes as dowry, but our parents are gone, so I don't have a place to make arrangements. Go to the box, you can take this fifty dollars, and treat it as a dowry given to you by my sister."

Han Mingcui took out fifty dollars from his pocket and put it on the kang quilt beside Han Mingxiu.

It took her several months to save up the money. Don't look at her carefulness on weekdays, she is reluctant to spend a penny, but for her sister, she is willing to give everything.

Because the younger sister is not only her relative, but also her benefactor. If there is no younger sister, she will not have her current job, and maybe she is still living in the old Wang's house. In that case, she may live a miserable life. Even Xiaomeizi is now in the world or not!

When Han Mingxiu saw that the eldest sister actually gave her fifty yuan for a dowry, she knew that the eldest sister had given her everything, and said quickly, "Eldest sister, I am not short of money, the old Huo family gave me a hundred a few days ago. , my aunt also gave me sixty-six, and Huo Jianfeng usually mailed it to me. I have more than 200 yuan now. You can keep this money for yourself. The child grows up day by day. There's a lot of money left, so keep it for yourself."

"It's alright, anyway, I have a job, and I can save it again when the money is gone. You are going to get married this time in your life, so let my sister give you some love." Seeing her not accepting it, Han Mingcui insisted on persuading her to accept it.

Han Mingxiu really doesn't want it. She is about to leave here. Big sister, a woman is pulling a few children. If there is no money around, what can I do if something happens? There was no one else who could help, and it would be better if I had some money. If you don't have money, if something happens, you won't be waiting for your eyes.

Therefore, she absolutely cannot accept this money.

She thought for a while and said, "Why don't you do this, leave 10 catties or 8 catties of the rest of the meat at home, and the rest can be used as dowry for me. If you still think it's less, leave the eggs at home. What you eat, give me the rest, and the meat and eggs add up to fifty dollars."

She left 30 catties of pork left over from her uncle's house work yesterday, and the rest was pulled back, totaling more than 120 catties. Now the pork has risen to 40 cents a pound, and the meat is worth about 50 yuan. In addition to the eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs at home, fifty dollars is more than enough.

When Han Mingcui heard that she was going to use the meat as a dowry, she thought it was strange, but considering that the value of the meat and eggs was about fifty dollars, she didn't take it seriously.

Since my sister wants meat and eggs as her dowry, let her do it. My sister is delicious. If the food in the old Huo family is not good, if you bring more meat over, you can also make her greedy, right?

In fact, the reason why Han Mingxiu wanted these meat and eggs was just in case. She was afraid that Huo Jianfeng's aunt would do something wrong, and if the banquet was shabby, then Jianfeng would lose face in front of the villagers, and their wedding would not be a good one.

So, still bring some meat and eggs, just in case.

After breakfast, she asked Xiaoying to help her make the fire, and started cooking meat, one pot after another. He also relied on a lot of oil shuttles, used the remaining pig skin to boil two large pots of jelly, and boiled those eggs...

This is a big project. She has eaten two-thirds of a hundred kilograms of meat, and it took several pots to finish it. That one-third relies on the oil shuttle, plus the boiled eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs, I have been busy from morning to night...

**

The next day was the first day of the new year, and it was also the day when Han Mingxiu officially got married.

At more than four in the morning, Han Mingcui called Han Mingxiu out of the bed, and after helping her dress up, she cooked a pot of dumplings for her, telling her to be full and waiting for Huo Jianfeng to pick her up.

The people who came to see their relatives also arrived one after another, including the captain and his wife, the female director and his wife, the accountant of the production team, as well as several seniors in the village, as well as Han Mingxiu's uncle's family, the second aunt's family...

Although she usually walks with the uncle and the second aunt not at all close, but it is not as bad as with the second uncle and the old aunt, so it is reasonable to let the uncle and the second aunt participate in her good marriage. of.

After all, they are relatives. They are too stiff and not good-looking. Just keep a good face and not let others see jokes.

In addition, Gao Guangbin and his daughter Zhang Laobatuner also came, and they were invited by Han Mingxiu.

Han Mingxiu has always hoped that the eldest sister can go one step further with Gao Guangbin, so that she doesn't have to worry about the eldest sister even after she gets married. Otherwise, the eldest sister's temper is so soft, she is really afraid that the eldest sister will be bullied when she is not at home. If the eldest sister can form a family with Gao Guangbin, Gao Guangbin can protect her and a few children, and prevent her from being bullied...

At half past seven, Huo Jianfeng came to Sun Aotun in a carriage. The carriage belonged to their Xiaodongshan production team, and the production team leader specially authorized him to come and pick up the bride.

In addition, Wang Wenyuan also borrowed the carriage of the Sijiawazi production team. The two carriages, one was for the bride and groom, and the other was for her parents (guests). The two large carriages entered Sun Aotun with great momentum, which immediately attracted the attention of the children who were running wildly outside. Notice.

When the children in Sun Aotun saw an unfamiliar carriage entering the village, with big red flowers hanging from the horse's neck, they knew they were here to pick up the bride. Then he rushed to the front of the carriage and went to Han Mingxiu's house to report.

When Han Mingcuier heard that Huo Jianfeng had arrived, she hurriedly took out a prepared red scarf and put it on Han Mingxiu's head as a hijab.

After Huo Jianfeng entered the house, he saw the charming bride under the red veil.

Today, Han Mingxiu is wearing the burgundy jacket and light green cotton pants that Sister He Li bought for her. She looks better and more refreshing than on the 29th day.

Huo Jianfeng walked up to her, bowed his head and smiled and said, "Xiu'er, I'm here to pick you up."

Han Mingxiu laughed when she heard it, but before she could answer, the villagers in Sun Aotun shouted jokingly: "Xiu'er, you can't just nod your head like that, it's not so easy for our Sun Aotun girl to get married."

"Xiu'er is the best girl in our village. If you want to marry back easily, it's not that easy!"

Huo Jianfeng knew what they were making, so he waved at the chaos, and the chaos brought a small basket covered with a towel.

Huo Jianfeng tore off the towel from the small basket, which was full of candy peanuts and melon seeds. He scattered the basket of things on the kang and said loudly, "I invite everyone to eat candy!"

At this time, the villagers in the house swarmed to grab wedding candy, peanuts and melon seeds.

Wang Wenyuan also stepped forward and handed a small box to Huo Jianfeng. Huo Jianfeng opened the box, which was full of filter-tipped cigarettes. Huo Jianfeng also scattered these cigarettes on the kang, which attracted the men to rush up to grab the cigarettes, which was very lively.

After the answer was made to the villagers, the fire finally agreed to let Han Mingxiu and Huo Jianfeng go.

Han Mingcui spread the new quilt made by the two sisters on the carriage. Wang Wenyuan had already laid an old quilt on the carriage beforehand, so that their new quilt would not get dirty when they were laid on the carriage.
