No matter what era, for ordinary people, getting married is a big event that requires a lot of effort.

Don’t even mention that you can marry a wife for free during a famine, as long as she is fed, she will follow you. Ordinary families don’t even have food to eat during a famine.

"I thought it was a big deal. As long as you're willing to get married, Old Xu's family has a spare house. You can just move in after you get married.

If you two young people who are in love can get together, Old Xu will have a son and his daughter won't have to marry away. What a wonderful thing."

In those years, there were many cases of women marrying into the wife's family in Northeast China. Not to mention marrying into the wife's family, there were also many who formed gangs to frame her. In Chen Baiwang's opinion, this was not a big deal at all.

"Captain, not accepting a son-in-law is my bottom line. Although my conditions are ordinary, I also have dignity."

Zhang Hui said firmly.

"You're just being pretentious, what's wrong with marrying into the family? You don't have to spend a penny, and you get a beautiful wife for free. Old Xu will even give you a betrothal gift."

Chen Baiwang continued to encourage Zhang Hui to get married, talking about the various benefits of marrying into the family.

"Captain, what you said, is it your own opinion or the Xu family's opinion?

If that's what the Xu family wants, please go back and bring it to him, and tell him that Qiaofeng and I are not meant to be together, and let's just let it go."

In front of so many people, the captain discussed with him about letting him marry into the family. Zhang Hui felt that his dignity was trampled upon.

"No! That's my own idea. Old Xu didn't say that. If it's not okay, then it's not okay. Young man, don't be so angry!"

Seeing that he had made Zhang Hui anxious, Chen Baiwang quickly changed his tone.

I was asked by my old friend to come here to test his feelings and urge him to get married, but I don't want to break him up.

If I lose Old Xu's son-in-law, and Xu Qiaofeng tries to commit suicide again, Old Xu will definitely come after me!

"If you're like this, don't we have rooms in the educated youth compound? If you guys squeeze in, you can always free up a room, right?

That way you only need to make a few pieces of furniture, and save all the other money, right?"

The educated youth compound was built by Chen Baiwang and his team, and he knew the layout of the houses very well.

The three main rooms housed Cui Jinfa and his group of five, and the two east wing rooms housed Zhang Hui and his group of four, so there was definitely enough room available.

"Comrade Dong Yiming and Comrade He Yingying plan to get married after the Chinese New Year, so we need to free up two rooms for them."

Zhang Hui said in a muffled voice.

He had the same idea at first, but hesitated for too long, and ended up being the first to say it out by Dong Yiming.

Both of them were educated youth and were more qualified than him. Besides, they had said it first, so Zhang Hui had nothing to say. It was just that he was too indecisive!

"Captain, I will discuss this matter with Qiaofeng. I am currently working at the Hope Melon Seed Factory. I can earn full work points every day and also receive subsidies.

As long as I save a little and my family helps a little, I will soon have enough money."

"Okay, you can do whatever you want."

Zhang Hui is not his son-in-law. Now that things have come to this, Chen Baiwang can't say anything more. Saying more would be like forcing a mute to speak.

From beginning to end, Yang Baiyi didn't say a word. If Zhang Hui asked him to borrow money, as they had been friends for several years, Yang Baiyi would definitely not turn his face away.

But Zhang Hui didn't say anything, and Yang Baiyi wouldn't take the initiative to send the money over.

Help in emergencies but not in poverty, this is the principle.

"Yingying, you're planning to get married after the New Year, and I didn't even know about it. You're really tight-lipped. I won't be with you anymore."

Lin Wanru and He Yingying were sitting next to each other, and were chatting and laughing. But after hearing what Zhang Hui said, Lin Wanru instantly became unhappy.

"It's still a few months away! I was planning to tell you at the end of the year.

Dear sister, don't be angry with me. I apologize to you."

He Yingying hurried to coax Lin Wanru.

"Have you started putting up the furniture? Is there anything you need? If you have any difficulties, just talk to me."

Lin Wanru said this with great pride.

Living with Yang Baiyi, Lin Wanru has very little money to spend, but her family keeps sending her money.

She wrote a letter to her parents to tell them that she had money, but they didn't listen at all and sent her every penny. Lin Wanru kept it all for herself.

"We both earn work points, and we don't have elderly people or children to support, so it's more than enough for us."

Whether to use it or not is his own business. He Yingying was very touched that Lin Wanru could say that.

The banquets prepared by Yang Baiyi's family have never disappointed anyone. As long as there is food in the mountains, you can eat it in his house.

Add to that the golden ginseng wine and unlimited supply of Zhonghua cigarettes, and it would be the best hospitality no matter where it is placed.

The dinner lasted until late at night. Lele had already fallen asleep in Li Xue's arms, and Xiaoxiao was taken away by Mu Xue to sleep. The educated youth, who had eaten and drunk their fill, said goodbye and left.

The next day, Yang Baiyi went out on a sled, ran around in the open field, then found a place sheltered from the wind and took some fruit leather and dried plums from the space.

Both of these are sour, which can relieve Zhou Fengying's morning sickness. The little girl often eats too much, and these two can also help digestion.

It was almost time, so Yang Baiyi drove Dahuang back home. After arriving home, he let them go up the mountain to find food on their own.

In the afternoon, Cui Jinfa and Fan Jin came over.

"What can't we say at home? You dragged me outside in the freezing cold."

Yang Baiyi broke free from Cui Jinfa's arms and asked unhappily.

"As for my brothers' personal relationship issues, I'm afraid my grandparents will laugh at me if I tell them at home."

Cui Jinfa, who used to be carefree, showed a rare hint of shyness.

"Wow! It's rare that you're shy. Tell me, which girl do you like?"

Yang Baiyi looked at the sky and saw that the sun was indeed in the west.

"Comrade Yang Baiyi, when I heard you say there would be a chance to return to the city in the future, I was thinking of gritting my teeth and persevering.

But Dong Yiming, that wicked fellow, shows his affection without regard for time or place. He is shameless and doesn't know how to be shy, but his brothers can't stand it!

We just wanted to ask if there will be a policy for returning to the city in the next one or two years."

Cui Jinfa gnashed his teeth in hatred when he mentioned Dong Yiming.

"There hasn't been any drama in the past one or two years, so why are you two the only ones here? Where's Fan Jian? Why isn't he here? Did you guys have any conflicts?"

There were only a few male educated youth in the same batch. He himself did not live in the educated youth compound, and Dong Yiming had a partner, so there were only three left, including Cui Jinfa.

"There's no contradiction. Fan Jian is a stubborn guy who can stand loneliness. He's determined to wait until we return to the city before we talk about it."

After hearing what Yang Baiyi said, Cui Jinfa felt a little disappointed. He had just said it with gritted teeth about one or two years.

Looking at Dong Yiming's loving relationship, and then looking at the happiness of Han Fei's family of three, being single is a bit hard!
