Cheng Qiu Kui got up early to prepare chicken soup, and she made chicken soup noodles.
The three sisters each had a large bowl, and she even took the chicken pieces off the cob and gave them to her eldest sister to help her recover.
Of the three sisters, the eldest was the thinnest. Cheng Qiu Kui kept nagging her to eat a few more bites, wishing she could fatten her up in no time.
The courtyard gate was knocked on again, and this time it was Du Ziqiang, whom everyone had been longing to see.
This is probably the most energetic Du Ziqiang Cheng Xiao Kui has ever seen!
Du Ziqiang was wearing a brand new Zhongshan suit today, and the collar of his shirt was so white that it was obviously a new outfit.
Not only were the clothes new, but the leather shoes were also new, and the hair must have been cut yesterday.
Du Ziqiang walked into the courtyard and stood there awkwardly.
He said to Cheng Xiao Kui, "Um... I'm taking Qiu Kui to get our marriage certificate... I've already gotten all the necessary documents..."
After returning home yesterday, he didn't rest. He went to the leaders and the street director overnight to get his marriage application approved.
With the official seals of the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the local street office, plus their household registration books, they can get their marriage certificate today.
It has to be said that it's easy to get your father's approval. Because of his father's connections, the director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the street director stamped the document for him overnight.
Cheng Xiao Kui laughed and said, "Why is Du Ziqiang so shy today? It seems I have a new understanding of you!"
Du Ziqiang said, "Who's shy? We're usually this polite and refined. Xiao Kui likes my polite and refined side!"
Despite saying that, a dark red flush involuntarily crept onto his face.
Cheng Xiao Kui laughed out loud, thinking that Du Ziqiang must like Qiu Kui, otherwise why would he be shy?
She called out to Okra, "Okra, hurry back to your room and change your clothes, the new outfit I bought for you."
When you two pass by the cooperative, buy a pound of sugar first, then go to the Civil Affairs Bureau! When you get your marriage certificate, hand out wedding candy to everyone!
Cheng Qiuqiu nodded, her face flushed. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't even speak!
She quickly ran back to her room to change her clothes. When she came out of the room, she was so embarrassed that she couldn't lift her head. She felt her face burning hot.
Cheng Xiao Kui took her younger sister's hand and handed it to Du Ziqiang, saying, "I'm entrusting my sister to you. Please take good care of her!"
Du Ziqiang said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of the okra!"
He pulled Cheng Qiuqiu out of the courtyard gate, where his father had borrowed a jeep for him.
Today is the big day for them to get their marriage certificate; they're going to do it in a jeep.
Cheng Xiao Kui and Cheng Chun Kui watched the jeep disappear at the end of the road before they looked away.
Cheng Xiao Kui sighed and said, "I never imagined that among the three of us sisters, Qiu Kui would be the first to get married."
Cheng Chun-kui said, "Weren't you the first one to get married? You're divorced now."
Cheng Xiaokui said, "The last wedding doesn't count! Si Muyang and I have never had a proper relationship, so how can that wedding count?"
Once he finishes his mission and comes back, we'll have a proper relationship, and then we'll get married. That will be a real marriage!
"Sis, do you have someone you like? You could try to develop a relationship with them!"
Cheng Chun Kui's expression froze on her face. She said, "I...I don't have anyone I like..."
Cheng Xiaokui said, "It's okay if you don't like any of them. When Muyang comes back, I'll have him bring his good friends back for dinner. Then you can see which one you like."
"I'll have Muyang introduce you to one. There are so many people in the army, there's bound to be one you like!"
Anyway, she felt that all soldiers were reliable, and she didn't care which soldier she chose.
Cheng Chun-kui said, "Okay... after he comes back..."
She kept her head slightly lowered, preventing Cheng Xiao Kui from looking into her eyes.
Her eyes were filled with indescribable emotions, a complex web of feelings. With Si Muyang back this time, was there no more to come...?
Cheng Xiao Kui assumed that Cheng Chun Kui's injury had hurt again, so she helped Cheng Chun Kui back to her room to rest.
The aunties and grandmas who came to work chatted and laughed as they entered the door. It was another happy day, and everyone got to work with great enthusiasm.
Cheng Xiao Kui glanced at the front gate every now and then. Logically speaking, the time to get the marriage certificate shouldn't be too long, and Qiu Kui should have been back long ago!
Time flew by and it was noon.
After Cheng Xiaokui finished lunch with her sister and aunts, she was getting impatient when she saw Cheng Qiukui and Du Ziqiang carrying a bunch of things and chatting and laughing as they walked into the yard.
Cheng Qiu Kui and Du Zi Qiang had all four hands full of things. Cheng Xiao Kui thought they probably didn't have any extra hands, otherwise they could have bought a lot more!
She went over to them and asked, "Why did you buy so much stuff? What are all these things?"
Du Ziqiang said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, just some food and supplies. I'll be going now, I promised to give the leader some wedding candy! It's getting late!"
He put the things on the table in the yard and quickly ran away.
Looking at the table full of things, Cheng Xiaokui asked, "What did you buy all of this?"
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "I bought a lot of things, including snacks, candy, all kinds of delicious food, as well as several sets of clothes, leather shoes and such."
These were all bought by my in-laws. They said they wanted to get me some clothes and other things I might need.
Oh, and this too! Sis, look, is this real? It feels heavy in my hand!
Cheng Qiu Kui took out a small cloth bag from her innermost pocket.
The cloth was wrapped in several layers. When you opened it, you found a gold ring and a bracelet inside.
The aunties and grandmas working in the yard all gathered around to watch.
"This is in really good condition; it's definitely an old piece!"
"Yes, yes, old gold is always this color! Gold these days looks light and impure!"
"Okra, these were all given to you by your in-laws."
Cheng Qiuqiu said, "Yes, these were all given to me by my in-laws. Du Ziqiang said that the bracelet and ring are family heirlooms!"
Cheng Xiaokui said with a smile, "I told you Du Ziqiang was reliable! I didn't expect him to be even more reliable now. This gold bracelet and gold ring must weigh two taels!"
She estimated the price based on the price more than forty years later: one gram would be about 700, and 100 grams would be 70,000 yuan!
The Du family showed great sincerity to Qiu Kui, buying her new clothes and giving her gold jewelry, and she was very satisfied with the Du family!
She instructed her younger sister to put all the things in the room.
Cheng Qiu Kui invited everyone to try the pastries and candies, which she had bought for everyone to eat.
Cheng Chun Kui stood not far away, her face full of smiles.
However, her gaze was cold and aloof; this kind of happiness was probably something she would never deserve in her entire life...
In the afternoon, Cheng Xiaokui, along with Qiu Kui, handed over the deposit for the courtyard house to the homeowner.
In this era, there is a great deal of trust between people.
The homeowner took the deposit and gave them the keys, so they could use the house as they pleased.
Cheng Xiao Kui was planning that she could get Cheng Qiu Kui's business up and running in two days, and Si Mu Yang should be back by then!
