Chapter 62 When will I pick up the bride?
Not to mention the tickets, even these five dollars were an absolutely astronomical sum in this era.
In this era, the average wage was only 25 to 10 yuan.
An ordinary working-class family cannot earn this much money in ten years.
Even if you can earn it, after deducting expenses, it would be extremely difficult to save that much money.
In the end, he just waved his hand and gave it to me without any care!
But think about it, in the 1980s, when the family was more affluent, my mother-in-law gave me a larger dowry, so in comparison, these five yuan were nothing.
Yang Ling said, "Five yuan, not too much~
The main reason is that your dad and I came here this time, and we didn’t bring much money or tickets.
If it were in Kyoto, I would have given you a dowry of at least 100,000 yuan.
Take this five yuan for now.
I'll give you some more money when my parents return to Kyoto. ”
Lu Wan sighed silently in her heart, it's great to have a rich mother.
At least, she never has to worry about money.
Now, her mother gave her so much money and tickets, enough for her and Su Zhenhua to live a luxurious life.
Lu Wan's nose felt sore, and she said to Yang Ling, "Mom, you are so kind!"
Hearing Lu Wan's words, Yang Ling raised the corners of her lips, "Silly child, you are my precious daughter, and your parents hope that you live a good life."
"Well, Mom, I will definitely live a good and happy life and will never make you worry about me again."
Yang Ling held back her tears and nodded. "Okay, as long as you are fine, Mom will be grateful."
After giving the money for safekeeping, Yang Ling gave a few more instructions. Considering that they had a busy schedule tomorrow, the mother and daughter went to bed early.
Although the wedding banquet was held in the afternoon, the Su family had already started to get busy at the educated youth point in the morning.
The educated youth at the educated youth point all expressed their gratitude and sent gifts to Lu Wan.
The one who got married gave her a pair of shoes she had knitted herself, the one who got married gave her a pillowcase, and the most expensive thing she gave her was vanishing cream.
Gifts may be light or heavy, but they are all my little thoughts.
Those who didn’t give any gifts just took the gift money, ranging from 50 cents to 1 yuan.
In this era, the average gift given by city dwellers is only one or two dollars.
The country folk were poor, and the educated youths did not have very good conditions, so giving them fifty cents or one yuan was considered a great gift.
During this period, the educated youth at the educated youth point got along very happily with the Lu family, and they had so many delicious foods to eat every day. Of course, they had to show their appreciation when Lu Wan got married.
Lu Wan packed and sealed all the gifts given by everyone and would take them to the Su family later.
At the educated youth site, Lu Jun and Yang Ling also prepared candies.
Anyone who comes to congratulate will be given wedding candy.
He was even more generous to the educated youth at the educated youth sites. When others got married, he gave each of them one or two candies to sweeten their mouths, which was already generous enough.
Lu Jun and Yang Ling each gave a handful of fruit candies.
Not to mention melon seeds, peanuts and the like, each person grabbed two handfuls.
When other people from the production team came over, basically everyone, adults and children, could get four candies.
After hearing about Lu Wan's mother's generosity, many people came to the educated youth site to congratulate her throughout the morning.
At this time, everyone felt even more deeply the wealth of the Lu family.
People with money are different. They give out candies just like those who don’t.
As an educated youth, Liu Lili also took a handful of fruit candies and a lot of melon seeds and peanuts.
Xu Fang had always disliked Liu Lili, and now she couldn't help but say, "Liu Zhiqing, you only have the nerve to accept wedding candy after everyone has given you gifts.
You didn't give me any gift, so you have the nerve to accept it. ”
Liu Lili blushed at what Xu Fang said, but she was reluctant to return the wedding candy and melon seeds and peanuts.
Seeing that everyone else was eating delicious food while she couldn't eat anything, Liu Lili was of course unwilling to accept it.
Since it was given to her by the Army, why couldn't she accept it?
Don’t miss it!
What's the point of having face? If you want to save face, you have to go hungry.
She cares more about her belly than her face.
Liu Lili held it in for a while, then replied to Xu Fang, "I didn't eat yours, why do you care?"
Xu Fang rolled her eyes, "It's disgusting that people like you only know how to take advantage of others!"
After saying that, Xu Fang ignored Liu Lili.
Many people from the Su family also came to congratulate them.
The Su family sent wedding candies to every household in the morning.
I was so busy that it was noon before I knew it.
After lunch, Su Zhenhua was eager to pick up Lu Wan.
Because he was going to marry Lu Wan, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night yesterday.
Although he didn't sleep, Su Zhenhua was more excited than usual.
At this moment, I am still full of energy and have endless strength.
"Mom, when are we going to pick someone up?" Su Zhenhua urged Zhu Aihua anxiously.
To exaggerate a little, Su Zhenhua has said this a hundred times today.
Seeing her son's anxious look, Zhu Aihua smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Wait a minute!"
But Zhu Aihua knew very well why this boy was so anxious.
Why else? Isn’t it just for Lu Zhiqing?
He couldn't wait to marry the girl, how could he not be so impatient?
This kid, who usually looked quite steady, became agitated at this moment.
When Su Zhenhua heard Zhu Aihua say this, he couldn't help feeling disappointed for a moment.
"Ah? Mom, do we have to wait a little longer? It's already past noon..." Su Zhenhua muttered.
Zhu Aihua shook her head and comforted Su Zhenhua, "It will be soon. Don't worry. Go back to the house and put on new clothes and shoes. Let's get ready and go to the educated youth center to pick up the bride."
After hearing what Zhu Aihua said, Su Zhenhua hurried back into the house and started changing into new clothes and new shoes.
The clothes were made of fabric bought by Lu Wan's mother and handmade by Zhu Aihua.
The shoes were the small leather shoes that Lu Wan bought for him.
In this era, because the living conditions were so poor, being able to wear new clothes was considered a luxury when getting married.
To the country folk, Su Zhenhua's outfit was something they couldn't even imagine.
Who can afford to buy small leather shoes?
To buy a pair of small leather shoes, not to mention the leather shoe tickets, the price alone is equivalent to a family’s annual income in the production team.
Su Zhenhua is tall and strong, and very handsome.
When she changed into new clothes and new shoes, people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Her temperament has improved a lot, and she is like a city person.
After Su Zhenhua changed his clothes and shoes, he walked up to his family members in a somewhat reserved manner, "Mom, big brother, second brother, and little sister, please take a look at my outfit. Is it okay?"
For the first time, Su Zhenhua felt a little unconfident in himself.
She was afraid that she wasn’t good-looking enough and that standing in front of Lu Wan would disappoint her.
Seeing Su Zhenhua's new look, the Su family members praised him.
Su Jinju said with a playful smile, "Brother, you look so handsome! I didn't expect that my brother would look so good after dressing up!"
Su Zhenhua's face slightly heated up after being praised by Su Jinju, "Don't tease your brother."
Su Jinju stopped laughing and said seriously, "Brother, no, I'm serious, I'm not funny to you."
