Chapter 9 Getting the Certificate

Lu Weiguo was very quick and filed a marriage report that night.

He submitted the report to the organization early the next morning, along with the application form for the family home.

In just one morning, all the leaders in the camp knew about it.

They came to Lu Weiguo one by one as if they were curious, and the soldiers on the training ground were so scared that they trained nervously.

It was really because the leaders showed up in groups today, and they were nervous.

After a day of training, Lu Weiguo was summoned by the leader.

The office of the regiment commander.

Regiment commander Zhao was in his forties this year, and his expression was very serious. He relaxed a little when he saw Lu Weiguo coming in.

Lu Weiguo saw the marriage report on his desk at a glance.

Captain Zhao pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down."

Lu Weiguo saluted and sat down with his back straight.

Picking up the marriage report on the table, Captain Zhao asked, "Have you thought about it? You should know something about the Shi family's situation."

"Yes, I have considered it."

Captain Zhao sighed. Lu Weiguo was the most capable soldier under his command. If he knew that his blind date was successful and his background was not a problem, he would have immediately let someone approve his marriage report. But why did they choose the Shi family?

"The Shi family is not a good marriage partner." Captain Zhao said bluntly.

Lu Weiguo lowered his eyelids, his tone was inaudible: "I know."

Captain Zhao was a little angry when he saw him like this, "You knew? You know shit! Did you know that I was going to be promoted soon? Did you know that I meant for you to sit in this position?"

"Now that you've done this to me, do you still want the chair under my butt?"

Lu Weiguo's fingers couldn't help but move, and were finally pressed down by him, "Captain Zhao, I'm not fit to move up now."

Captain Zhao frowned, but didn't continue to get angry at him.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Weiguo said, "Now is a special period, and I have made great military achievements. If I take another step forward, it will be too conspicuous."

He planned to keep a low profile for the next two years. Now there are rumors that the Fourth Group will be liquidated. It won't be too late for him to move up after all this is over.

Captain Zhao looked suspicious, "You want to marry into the Shi family, isn't it just because you won't get promoted this time?"

Lu Weiguo twitched his mouth, "I don't have that much time, it's just that the person is suitable."

Having said that, Captain Zhao no longer made things difficult for him.

Lu Weiguo stood up and wanted to say goodbye, but Captain Zhao lowered his voice and said, "Since you want to marry into the Shi family, I'll tell you something."

"You say." Lu Weiguo also lowered his voice.

It's better not to let others know about the news of the Shi family.

Captain Zhao looked serious.

"The Shi family's report materials are still in the hands of our army commander. He admires the talents of the Shi couple, so he suppressed the report materials."

Lu Weiguo understood, and he felt it was strange. He had heard that the Shi family had been reported, but they were still able to work step by step, and no one came to verify. It was very unreasonable.

It turned out that it was suppressed.

Captain Zhao sighed, "But it is estimated that it will not be suppressed for long. In one month at most, and two weeks at least, the higher-ups will take action."

"Then please help me urge the marriage application to come down as soon as possible." Lu Weiguo calculated the time. He must get married with Shi Tingyu within two weeks.

Captain Zhao wanted to pat his shoulder, but the man was too tall, so he could only retract his hand and pat his arm, "Don't worry, I will. Professor Shi and his men have been very kind to us soldiers. Without the firearms he improved, we would have a heavy mission and who knows how many people would be injured."

This is why their commander wanted to save the man.

Lu Weiguo expressed his gratitude sincerely, and went back first when he saw that there was nothing else to do.

At the Shi family, after hearing the news brought by Lu Weiguo, Shi's father and mother could not sit still. They had to deal with all the things that needed to be dealt with within two weeks.

In addition to sending 500 yuan to the eldest son for emergency, all the remaining money in the family was transferred to Shi Tingyu.

It's not that Shi's parents are too partial, but the eldest son gets a salary every month. If he keeps a large sum of money, he will be investigated.

Who makes him the son of Shi's parents? He hasn't married and separated the family.

The total monthly salary of the three workers in the Shi family is 642 yuan, which is more than 38,000 yuan in four years. Excluding daily expenses, there are more than 28,500 yuan in the passbook, and a lot of various bills.

Shi Tingyu gave more than 300 yuan to her parents to keep with them. She didn't dare to give them too much, for fear that if they were discovered, not only would they lose the money, but they would also get into trouble.

She took out more than 200 yuan and some expired bills and put them at home.

The remaining 28,000 yuan was all put into the space.

As for the more than 200 yuan left at home, it was also to shut up those people.

If they came to search, and got nothing in return, who knows how they would get angry and irritate people.

The military district acted quickly, and Lu Weiguo's marriage application and family housing application came in a week later.

After the marriage application was approved, Lu Weiguo asked someone to help clean up the family compound, then he asked for leave, took the documents and went with Shi Tingyu to get the certificate.

Shi's father and mother were waiting at home anxiously. The moment they didn't see the marriage certificate, they couldn't feel at ease, for fear that something might happen.

At 10:30 in the morning, Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo appeared in the family compound. Shi

Tingyu showed the marriage certificate in his hand to his parents, and the two elders' eyes were instantly red.

"Okay, okay, we are relieved now."

Father Shi looked at Lu Weiguo and said cautiously, "Weiguo, my daughter has been spoiled since she was a child. If she does something wrong, you should talk to her. She is a reasonable person and will definitely listen. Don't do anything, understand?"

Lu Weiguo nodded, "Don't worry, I will live a good life with Comrade Shi."

Father Shi turned his head away and wiped his eyes secretly.

Mother Shi said in a hoarse voice, "You can arrange the wedding. According to our opinion, don't make it public, otherwise it will be disadvantageous to you."

Lu Weiguo was a little hesitant, but he didn't care. He was just afraid of wronging Shi Tingyu.

Meeting Lu Weiguo's gaze, Shi Tingyu nodded at him, "Just get the certificate, the rest is not important."

At noon that day, the family had lunch together.

The meal was still made by Shi Tingyu, and Lu Weiguo followed to help.

He was tall and strong, and it was quite oppressive to stand there.

He was not good at cooking, but handling ingredients was no problem.

Shi's mother also wanted Lu Weiguo to taste her daughter's cooking skills and let her daughter show her strengths.

Thinking of this, Shi's mother couldn't help feeling a little sad. If they hadn't been a burden, with her daughter's character and appearance, she could find anyone she wanted, so she wouldn't have to work so hard to show herself like she does now.

Shi Tingyu cooked four dishes and one soup today, sweet and sour spare ribs, braised eggplant, spicy chicken, mapo tofu, and a tomato egg soup.

They are all home-cooked dishes. The sweet and sour spare ribs are sour and sweet, and the bone falls off when you bite them. The braised eggplant has been braised and fried beforehand, and the eggplant is very tender inside. When mixed with rice, you can't wait to swallow your tongue.

The spicy chicken is brown and shiny, crispy and soft, with a strong spicy flavor, salty and mellow, and slightly sweet. It is very enjoyable to eat.

The mapo tofu is even more crispy and soft, with a strong spicy flavor, and very tasty.

According to Lu Weiguo's idea, this meal is much better than the chef of the state-owned hotel.

He ate more than usual.

The amount of food made the Shi family couple stare.

I thought to myself, this amount of food may not be affordable for an ordinary family.

Shi Tingyu was much calmer. Lu Weiguo had a strong physique and had been training for many years, so naturally he ate more than the average person.

After lunch, Shi's father and mother went back to work. They only took half a day off.

Shi Tingyu looked at Lu Weiguo and said, "Do you want to see my room?"

Lu Weiguo raised his eyes and looked at her.

At this moment, he was sitting and she was standing, but she was not much taller than him.

His eyes were very focused. This was the first time that Lu Weiguo looked at her seriously at such a close distance since they got the marriage certificate.

Her skin was smooth and white, like the finest white jade, her eyebrows were curved like crescents, and the corners of her mouth were slightly swirling, as if she contained honey.

In Shi Tingyu's inquiring eyes, he heard himself say, "Okay."

Then he followed Shi Tingyu into the room.
