Han Siyue looked at Lu Zhengming in surprise. She didn't expect that he actually wanted to get married right away?
Once a marriage application is submitted and approved, the two people are considered married, even if they have not obtained a marriage certificate.
If something happens later, getting a divorce won’t be that easy.
However, since Han Siyue dared to come to him alone, she must have known Lu Zhengming clearly before coming.
She would definitely want to know his resume after joining the army, his experiences over the years, and whether he had any unclear relationships with other female comrades before agreeing to the engagement.
"Okay, I'll submit my application as well."
The two of them have made things clear, and at least it will be much more natural for them to get along with each other in the future.
Since both of them are considering getting married, they will naturally not be too restrained in their relationship.
Lu Zhengming was also very happy. He had been single for thirty years, and the first woman he liked happened to be his fiancée. He was really lucky.
The two didn't talk much. Some things were enough for them to know each other's minds. They were not familiar enough to talk about everything, so they just had to stop at the point.
"I've boiled some hot water. You can wash up and go to bed early. I'll go back to the dormitory. I'll bring breakfast from the cafeteria tomorrow morning. You can get some rest. You don't need to get up too early."
Even though the two of them have an engagement, they are not married yet.
There are no elders around, so it’s not appropriate for the two of them to live together.
So Lu Zhengming couldn't wait to return to the dormitory to write the marriage application and submit it early the next morning.
Han Siyue didn't quite understand. The person in front of her looked reluctant to leave just now, but the next moment he was eager to leave.
Could it be that she is some kind of monster?
------
Jiang Mengxue didn't need to ask any more questions. Just by looking at Han Siyue's sweet expression, she knew that the two of them got along very well.
So I didn't say any more about it. It's their own business and outsiders shouldn't interfere. We are all adults and everyone knows what's going on.
Not long after Jiang Mengxue finished her meal, Gu Qingbei came back with his calligraphy, and Lu Zhengming followed behind them.
They wanted to go out by bike, but Jiang Mengxue made a list of things that were missing at home.
I definitely couldn’t bring it back by bike, so I ended up driving out.
Although private transactions are not allowed now, small markets in rural areas are not banned.
What the country prohibits is speculation, but small amounts of homemade products can be traded.
For example, homemade tofu, woven baskets, saved eggs, half of the New Year pig is handed over to the state, and the remaining half belongs to oneself, and can also be exchanged with others, especially barter, which is not prohibited at any time.
Therefore, in addition to selling major agricultural products such as grain, cotton, and oil-bearing grains to the state, the commune production teams and members could take other agricultural and sideline products to the market for trading after completing their sales tasks to the state.
During this period, families of soldiers from the army often come to buy things.
Along the way, their car encountered many people traveling the same way, and the nearby members of the cooperative were used to it.
However, Jiang Mengxue and her group still attracted a lot of people's attention when they drove here, as no one had ever driven here before.
When they got to the market, they went their separate ways and bought what they needed.
Gu Qingbei was holding Mo Bao in the back and witnessed his wife's purchasing power for the first time.
Buy more bowls, chopsticks and plates for eating, so that when you have a party at home, you don’t have to borrow them from other people’s homes all the time.
Large broom, dustpan, basket, sieve, steamer.
Eggs, seasonal vegetables, and some dry goods from the farm.
She had just arrived here and had nothing at home, so she had to buy whatever she wanted to eat. Dry food was just right for when there was no food at home.
This market is usually visited by members of several nearby production teams. In the past, there were no vegetables at all, after all, every family grows some vegetables in their private plots.
It was only after people moved into the military family compound that some people started selling the leftover vegetables from their own vegetable gardens, and they even sold them very well.
The army has allocated an area for each family to grow vegetables, but the time is still very short and the vegetables have just sprouted. For daily vegetables, we still go to a small supply and marketing cooperative opened by the army's logistics department. They usually sell some vegetables and snacks, but they are definitely not as fresh as the ones just picked from the fields by farmers.
So military wives still like to go to the market to buy things whenever they have time.
There are also sheep for sale at the market, and members can buy them and raise them themselves, as long as the number does not exceed the national regulations.
Many housewives have no milk after giving birth. If they can afford it, they will raise a ewe to produce milk to feed their children.
Jiang Mengxue was watching the transactions outside the crowd. She was thinking about whether she should buy a milk-producing ewe to raise.
But when I thought about having to herd sheep every day and preparing fodder to feed the sheep when there was no grass in the winter, I immediately gave up the idea.
The cloth woven by farmers themselves can be used to make tablecloths and curtains.
Handmade cloth shoes, sacks for storing items, and mesh bags are all for sale.
Jiang Mengxue wanted to buy everything she saw, including benches, small tables, long stools, seasonings such as onions, ginger, and garlic, freshwater fish, apples, cantaloupes, grapes, and peaches.
There were also people selling milk with ewes, and there was a lamb following the ewes.
Jiang Mengxue bought a bucket of goat milk and planned to go back and make steamed buns or pastries, or cook them for Mobao to drink.
At this time, Lu Zhengming and Han Siyue also came over. They met someone selling honey and came over to ask Jiang Mengxue if she wanted to buy some.
Jiang Mengxue certainly would not miss such a good opportunity and bought the last three jars left by the stall owner.
The honey is packed in large jars. If someone wants to buy it, the stall owner will scoop it out and put it in small jars, which cost two yuan each.
Jiang Mengxue tasted a little herself. It wasn't very sweet at first, but after it entered her throat, it was so sweet that it was cloying.
Maybe it’s because she doesn’t like food that is too sweet, so she only drinks honey occasionally.
There were people making fried cakes and noodles at the market. Seeing that it was getting late, and there might not be any food left in the canteen when they returned, they decided to eat at the market before going back.
"In a while, the army will open a supply and marketing cooperative to sell daily necessities. At least four workers will be needed, and we will select them from the family members."
Lu Zhengming suddenly said this, Jiang Mengxue and Han Siyue were both stunned, and they looked at each other.
Han Siyue was still quite interested. She didn't want to stay in the art troupe anymore. After getting married, she would apply to join the army.
Given Lu Zhengming's position, the army would definitely coordinate if his wife wanted to join the army. Even if the art troupe refused to release her, a leader would step in to help.
But Jiang Mengxue was not very interested in this matter.
Can she say she doesn't want to go to work? Without constraints, doing something interesting at home all day, although it would be a bit boring, but for a stay-at-home girl, not going out is the best, and she wishes she could solve all the problems at home.
