Du Jiaming stood there, his hands clenched into fists, his face so gloomy that water seemed to drip out.
When he pushed open the kitchen door and saw no one there, everyone realized something and started looking for a cool place to sit in the yard with their heads down.
"Oh, looks like I'll have to eat pancakes and pickles again today."
"Will Jiang Zhiqing ever come back? I really miss her."
"I think Jiang Zhiqing won't come back. Although Lu Xiao has a bad background, he's capable of working. He can easily do the work of two people. If there's someone who can help me with the work every day, I'm willing to go with him."
The last person to speak was Li Meiling.
She rubbed her sore arms, having already had enough of working in the fields.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's hurry up and have lunch. I'm starving. Who's going to cook today? Qiao Wenwan and Du Jiaming, it's your turn today, right?"
The educated youth took turns cooking, with two people in a group. Since there were nine people in total, and Du Jiaming and his three companions arrived the latest, Du Jiaming was directly grouped with Jiang Wanwan and Qiao Wenwan.
In the past, even if it was their group's turn to cook, Du Jiaming wouldn't have to worry about it, as Jiang Wanwan and Qiao Wenwan would do it.
Women are supposed to do laundry and cook.
Being called out now, Du Jiaming's face looked even worse. He glanced at Qiao Wenwan who was standing not far away and said coldly, "You make lunch," and then went straight into the house.
Qiao Wenwan really didn't want to cook, she was also very tired, but it was her turn again. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she smiled gently, "We still have cabbage at our educated youth camp. I'll make pancakes and cabbage soup for everyone."
Finally, her eyes fell on Liu De, who pretended to look up at the sky, as if he didn't see her gaze.
Qiao Wenwan almost vomited blood. It turned out that all men are bad.
………………
You have to go to the county town to get a marriage certificate.
Lu Xiao rode his bicycle with Jiang Wanwan and it took more than an hour to arrive.
Jiang Wanwan was not very clear about the division of government responsibilities in this era, and followed Lu Xiao all the way.
It wasn't until he showed the staff their identification and letters of introduction that Jiang Wanwan realized something was wrong.
Gently tugging at the corner of his clothes, Lu Xiao turned back to look at her, and Jiang Wanwan whispered, "Are you going to get the marriage certificate now? We haven't taken any photos yet."
Lu Xiao looked at her cautious eyes and found it funny. It was rare for her to be timid.
Regardless of her initiative that night or the things she said on weekdays, I thought she was brave, but it turned out that she was a bully at home.
Thinking of these words, Lu Xiao's eyebrows and eyes softened a lot.
"I'll go take the photo after I get my marriage certificate."
She will get nothing less than what she wants.
Jiang Wanwan wanted to ask him how to get a marriage certificate without a photo, but when she saw Lu Xiao answering the staff's questions again, she had to swallow her words.
As a result, when I finally got the marriage certificate, I found that marriage certificates in this era don’t require photos at all, they are just a big certificate.
Lu Xiao took the marriage certificate from the staff and handed it to Jiang Wanwan immediately.
It was also the first time that Jiang Wanwan saw a marriage certificate from this era. There was a portrait of a great man on it, which was both festive and ceremonial.
When she saw Lu Xiao and her name, she laughed foolishly for a long time.
The regret of not having time for love in my previous life because I was only focused on my career has finally been fulfilled in this life.
With this thing, she can have sex with men openly and legitimately.
"Let's go to the photo studio."
Jiang Wanwan pulled Lu Xiao and was about to walk out. The man moved slightly, avoided her, put a few candies for the staff, thanked him again, and then walked out.
Jiang Wanwan felt a little disappointed when she didn't get the hand. Seeing the marriage certificate in her hand, she regained her confidence. However, she didn't expect the man to slow down at the door. When she was on par with him, he looked ahead and whispered, "There are too many people inside. It will have a bad influence."
Is this his explanation for not letting her hold his hand?
Jiang Wanwan stretched out a tender white finger and poked his big hand, "You mean we can hold hands when no one is around? But when I'm alone, I might not want to hold hands."
Lu Xiao didn't know if he was overthinking it, but after hearing what she said, the scene of that night kept coming to his mind, and he felt that he was too dirty.
There were definitely no wedding photos in that era, and it was already great if two people could find a photo studio to take a photo together.
The photographer was a middle-aged man wearing glasses. Jiang Wanwan specifically explained to him the purpose of their visit and their photo requirements.
The uncle pushed up his glasses when he heard that, took another look at the two people's clothes, and confirmed again and again, "Are you sure you want to take wedding photos?"
"That's right, Master, please make us look happier and sweeter." Jiang Wanwan nodded.
The master still reminded them, "It might not look good for the two of you to take wedding photos dressed like this."
Jiang Wanwan could also understand that people in this era all chose the festive red color when getting married, or else they would wear a green military uniform and a blue jacket, both of which were bright red.
However, her ideas are still modern, and she wants a simple and elegant marriage certificate photo.
"It's okay, Master. Just take pictures of us like this."
Seeing her insistence, the master said nothing more and asked the two of them to sit side by side and prepare to take pictures.
Jiang Wanwan was very excited. She sat on the bench, looking left and right, then looked at the man next to her. He was sitting straight, with his hands on his legs, his face serious, and he didn't even blink.
Jiang Wanwan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him.
Lu Xiao turned around and met a smiling face.
"Smile, smile when taking the photo."
She also made an arc with her hands in front of her lips.
