Yang Lifang even deliberately read out loud each gift, causing the villagers watching outside to gasp in shock.
"Why is Secretary Song so generous?"
"Secretary Song is indeed rich! He's giving away so many gifts just for proposing marriage!"
"Aunt Haruyuki is truly blessed!"
Not to mention the villagers, Zhang Chunxue herself was a little shocked: "Why did you bring so many things?"
"I feel like these aren't enough..." Song Xingzhi felt a little embarrassed and took out a small box from his pocket. "Oh, and this too."
Zhang Chunxue took it curiously, opened it, and her eyes widened immediately.
There was actually a Shanghai brand watch inside!
Yang Lifang even shouted at the top of her lungs, "Wow! Director Song even gave Chunxue a Shanghai brand ladies' watch!"
The onlookers were in an uproar!
Other people only give three turns and one ring when they get married, but Director Song hasn't even gotten married yet and he's already given two turns!
"A watch as a gift now? Then after we get married, a sewing machine and a radio will surely be given as well!"
"No one in our village can afford a three-turn and one-ring wedding gift, right? Director Song must be rich!"
"How can you compare Director Song with these people in our village? Is there any comparison?"
Zhang Chunxue gasped, then looked at Song Xingzhi in disbelief: "You, you also bought a watch?"
Song Xingzhi nodded slightly. "If Sister Chunxue had a watch, everything would be much more convenient... I think I'll prepare anything that Sister Chunxue needs for you."
If Zhang Chunxue said she wasn't touched, she would be lying. After all, Song Xingzhi was really thinking seriously about what to prepare for her.
"But……"
She wanted to say that this was too expensive, but she didn't expect Song Xingzhi to guess her thoughts.
"I have to buy these when I get married anyway."
Zhang Chunxue was speechless.
Yang Lifang pushed her a bit and said, "So, Chunxue! Is this okay? Give me some advice!"
Zhang Chunxue's face flushed red. "Xingzhi has put so much effort into this. If I say no, wouldn't that be a huge letdown for him?"
Yang Lifang was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling: "Great! We can be considered to have facilitated a good marriage!"
Zhong Aiguo also had a smile on his face: "Then let's discuss a date and get married now?"
He pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket and said, "I've looked at a few auspicious days, and the nearest auspicious day is five days from now..."
Song Xingzhi immediately said, "I think this is a good day."
Yang Lifang laughed heartily: "Our Director Song can't wait to get married."
Song Xingzhi's face turned red, and he nodded softly.
"Then the date is set," Zhang Chunxue said shyly, "Brother Aiguo and Sister-in-law Lifang, and Xingzhi, you all take a seat first. I'll go prepare lunch..."
Yang Lifang burst out laughing: "What time is it now? Are you already preparing lunch?"
She patted Zhang Chunxue's shoulder and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Your brother Aiguo and I are planning to go to the fields to do some work. Don't worry!"
"At noon, you don't need to invite me, your brother Aiguo and I will be there!"
Zhang Chunxue nodded somewhat embarrassedly: "Then it's settled!"
Song Xingzhi also coughed lightly: "I have to go back to the brigade headquarters... I'll come back at noon."
Yang Lifang helped carry the things on the table to the kitchen, and directed Zhong Xiaoxiao to put the rest away in the room.
Zhong Xiaoxiao still feels a bit dreamy.
Hey! So in five days, she and Teacher Song will be a family.
Teacher Song really became his stepfather!
Zhong Xiaoxiao felt happy just thinking about it.
Zhong Aiguo and Yang Lifang came out and saw a lot of people outside the courtyard gate, so they immediately drove them away.
"What are you all doing here if you don't go to work? Don't you have plenty of food and money at home?"
The others gathered around immediately.
"Oh, Uncle Aiguo, did Aunt Haruyuki agree?"
"Isn't that nonsense?" an older woman nearby said unhappily. "With Director Song's offer, even if Chunxue were crazy, there's no way she'd refuse!"
Zhong Aiguo coughed lightly and said, "Director Song and Chunxue's wedding banquet will be held in five days. Let's all come and have a meal and share in the good cheer!"
Someone couldn't help but say, "Chunxue is marrying Director Song. She's really enjoying herself now!"
"That's right, Director Song's conditions are first-rate!"
Some of the smarter ones immediately looked at Song Xingzhi: "Hey, Director Song, I wish you and Sister Chunxue a happy marriage! A happy marriage!"
Song Xingzhi immediately smiled: "Well, thank you!"
He nodded somewhat reservedly: "Everyone, let's get back to work! After all, the work in the fields is more important."
The villagers chatted excitedly while going to work.
Soon, this matter spread throughout Zhongjia Village and even the Red Star Brigade.
After all, this was Song Xingzhi! Song Xingzhi, who had been in Zhongjia Village for nearly twenty years and had never been in a relationship!
Now he is suddenly getting married, and his partner is Zhang Chunxue, who is already a grandmother. Who wouldn’t be surprised?
It can be said that the entire brigade was shocked by this incident.
It’s because there was no social media back then, otherwise this incident would have definitely made the front page headlines of the Red Star Brigade.
Zhong Xiaoxiao was so excited that she kept pestering Zhang Chunxue with questions at home, and at Liu Cui'e's house, there was even more chaos.
Liu Cui'e was cursing at home.
"She, Zhang Chunxue, is getting married, so the betrothal gift should be given to me!"
She also heard about the gifts Song Xingzhi sent to propose marriage, and she was so greedy that her mouth was watering.
To be honest, everyone else was also very greedy, but no matter how greedy they were, they were still clear-headed.
"Mom, forget about those things! Not to mention that my second brother and she separated from us a long time ago, and he's been dead for six years," the youngest son, Zhong Guoyong, curled his lips, "We haven't taken care of my second sister-in-law in these six years. There's no way she could have taken those things out."
How could Liu Cui'e not know this?
But she was unwilling to accept it and couldn't help but yell again: "Song Xingzhi and Zhong Aiguo just don't know how to behave. No matter what, I am still Zhang Chunxue's mother-in-law!"
"Zhang Chunxue wants to remarry, so they have to ask for my opinion, right?"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more heartbroken she became. She couldn't help but slam the table hard: "I think they just don't take me seriously!"
Even the two daughters-in-law who had been following their mother-in-law to cause trouble for Zhang Chunxue were silent now.
No, who are you? Why should I give you face?
But they didn't dare to say this and could only keep silent.
Liu Cui'e was still furious: "No, I have to go find Zhang Chunxue! She has to give me something!"
