Afterwards, Gao Yan went to the logistics department to pay 2 yuan in rent, got a note, and then went to the workshop to ask the workshop director for a day off.
They hurriedly returned to the courtyard house.
"Brother Weiguo, you're back!"
Upon seeing Gao Yan return, Li Mengyao quickly stood up and said.
"Let's go get our marriage certificate!"
Soon, the three of them arrived at the marriage registration office.
The whole process went quite smoothly.
Looking at the marriage certificate, which resembled an award, Gao Yan felt a pang of emotion. In his own world, he hadn't gotten married yet, but after only a few days in this parallel world, he was already married!
"Let's go to the department store to buy wedding candy!"
Upon arriving at the department store, the two sisters couldn't help but look around, especially at the many things inside that they had never seen before!
Gao Yan first bought four catties of wedding candy, and then prepared to buy two sets of clothes for each of the two sisters.
However, Li Mengyao refused, saying that she could make clothes herself by buying fabric, which would save her a lot of money.
"She already knows how to save money right after marrying into the family, that's good, she's virtuous!"
Gao Yan gently stroked Li Mengyao's nose, an intimate gesture that made her blush.
Since Li Mengyao didn't want to buy clothes, Gao Yan complied and bought two bolts of cloth.
"By the way, our wedding was rather rushed, so let me give you a gift!"
"No need, Brother Weiguo, I'm already very satisfied!"
"Listen to me this time!"
Gao Yan grabbed Li Mengyao's hand and led her to the counter, where he picked out a hair clip for each of the two sisters.
Li Mengya was overjoyed to receive a gift and thanked Gao Yan several times.
I also bought some household supplies.
The three of them returned to the courtyard house with bags and packages.
The courtyard was rather deserted in the morning.
However, almost every household has people staying behind.
So, Gao Yan and her two sisters went door to door to distribute wedding candies.
Those who received the wedding candy all expressed their blessings to them!
After distributing the wedding candies, Gao Yan led the two sisters to the back room in the central courtyard to clean and tidy up.
"Wei Guo, what's going on?"
Their behavior drew the attention of the wife of the person in charge at the Intermediate People's Court.
Gao said, "Aunt Chen, I got married, and one room wasn't enough, so I rented this back room from the factory for two yuan a month!"
Upon hearing that Gao Yan had paid to rent the place, Aunt Chen secretly pursed her lips, thinking that Gao Yan was being taken advantage of, because the back room was not only small in size, but also poorly lit.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have remained vacant until now.
Moreover, she also found out that Gao Yan's wife had come from a famine and had brought a child with her.
Although she's pretty, that doesn't put food on the table. He thought to himself, "This kid's probably going to have a hard time later."
The room was almost cleaned.
Gao Yan went to the front yard and brought back an old cotton quilt.
Li Mengyao took the quilt from his hands: "Brother Weiguo, let me do it!"
"OK!"
Gao Yan didn't refuse and handed the quilt to Li Mengyao: "I'll go deliver some wedding candy to Aunt Chen and Director Wang first, and then buy some groceries. We'll have a good lunch!"
Soon, Gao Yan arrived at Aunt Chen's house.
However, Aunt Chen wasn't there; only her two daughters-in-law were present. So Gao Yan left some wedding candy and left.
Then, after distributing wedding candy at the neighborhood office, I headed straight to the vegetable market.
Pork is naturally unavailable.
He originally planned to get some wild game from my world, but unexpectedly encountered someone buying chickens at the market.
So, without saying a word, he bought an old hen and spent 1.2 yuan.
Then.
Gao Yan bought a few more pounds of potatoes, two cabbages and two bok choy, and carried them back to the yard.
Back home.
Li Mengyao has already started steaming cornbread.
Seeing the old hen in Gao Yan's hand, Li Mengya couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Mengyao, can you cook?"
Gao Yan asked.
"I will!" Li Mengyao nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, the cooking is yours then!"
Gao Yan didn't stand on ceremony. Although Li Mengyao was a great beauty, he didn't intend to treat her like a princess, unlike the simp male protagonists in some period novels who marry a beautiful wife and immediately treat her like a princess.
It also drew envy from the surrounding neighbors.
Only those who have lived in this era know that if a woman can't cook or do housework, she will be pointed at and gossiped about.
You might be envious, but your neighbors will just say your wife isn't virtuous at all.
In this era, reputation is very important.
Therefore, Gao Yan can provide a good life for Li Mengyao and Li Mengya, but he won't spoil them.
The two sisters were quite nimble.
The old hen was dealt with quickly.
While Li Mengyao was processing the old hen, the older women and young wives in the yard all came to watch, and they all praised her for her quick and efficient work.
This made Li Mengyao quite happy, feeling that she was also a useful person!
Watching Li Mengyao's busy figure.
Gao Yan nodded in satisfaction.
"Mengyao, this is my secret seasoning. Add some to your dishes when you cook!"
Gao Yan walked to the stove, pointed to a small bottle, and said.
"Okay, Brother Weiguo, I understand!"
Li Mengyao's cooking skills were already quite good, and with the addition of super seasoning, the aroma of her braised chicken with potatoes instantly filled the entire courtyard.
This made the older women and young wives keep swallowing their saliva.
This meal.
All three of them ate to their heart's content.
After dinner, Gao Yan found the fishing rod at home and said to the two sisters, "Let's go fishing!"
