Now that they've registered their marriage, Zhao Juan is a member of the Chen family, so it's perfectly reasonable for her to live with them.
After they get married, next spring they'll find some time to go back to their hometown and transfer Zhao Juan's household registration to the forest farm. From then on, she'll live with the Chen family and receive red cards.
And so, Chen Weiguo and Zhao Juan's marriage was arranged with lightning speed.
The Zhao, Chen, and Li families were all quite happy, as it was a major issue that had been resolved.
On the first day, Xu Xiuxiang and her son came to the Li family with two pieces of cloth, a pair of shoes, and two pounds of yarn.
In front of the Li family, he gave Zhao Shucheng 130 yuan and Zhao Juan a watch.
Xu Xiuxiang had prepared that watch several years ago, just waiting for her son to find a girlfriend and get married so she could give it to her.
Xu Xiuxiang had been bothered by the conditions the Liu family had previously set, so she hadn't taken out the watch. This time, she gave it to her daughter-in-law.
Chen Weiguo and Zhao Juan got engaged smoothly. They went to the bureau's photo studio to take photos and then went to the civil affairs department of the bureau to get their marriage certificate.
On the morning of the 2nd, Zhao Juan, along with Chen's mother and son, and Wang Jianshe, left the Li family's house to catch the mini-train.
Before leaving, Zhao Shucheng secretly slipped fifty yuan to his daughter, telling her to keep it safe and not take it out.
My daughter is getting married, so I need to keep some money in hand. I can't let her suffer without a penny.
Chen Weiguo went to Songjianghe and brought back a slender and beautiful wife. The news spread faster than the wind and quickly spread throughout Qianchuan Forest Farm.
The Liu family heard about it too, and Liu's wife was so angry that she started cursing loudly at home, while Liu Hongxia cried uncontrollably.
At this time, all the forest farm workers had gone up the mountain to work. Liu Daming hadn't retired yet, so he definitely had to go up the mountain too.
With no man to take charge at home, Liu's wife didn't dare to cause trouble at Chen's house and could only swallow her anger.
Chen Weiguo returned to the forest farm and immediately set off for the mountains, leaving Zhao Juan to accompany Xu Xiuxiang and the younger members of the Chen family.
Xu Xiuxiang and Zhang Shuzhen discussed it and decided to settle Zhao Juan in the Sheng family's old house, where she would live with several female educated youths and eat at the Chen family's house.
Zhao Juan is indeed a practical person. During the day, she goes to the Chen family and does everything from washing clothes to cooking. She manages everything inside and outside the house. Xu Xiuxiang is finally enjoying the blessings of being a daughter-in-law.
Chen's younger siblings also held Zhao Juan in high esteem.
The Chen family is filled with laughter and joy every day, living a fulfilling and enjoyable life.
On the other side, after Sheng Xiping and others held a winter operation production mobilization meeting on November 1st, they took a commuter bus to this year's mountain camp.
This year's logging area is located in the same logging area as last year, and the area is more than twice the size of last year's.
According to this year's logging plan, the four work teams drew lots to select their respective work areas.
At the same time, they also need to take over that idle tractor.
Sheng Xiping was lucky; the forest he drew was quite good, with plenty of mature timber and no particularly steep or dangerous terrain.
However, that tractor was taken away by a construction team.
In this way, this year's educated youth team will be operating using a combination of mechanization and animal power.
The educated youth team was allocated seven ox- and horse-drawn sleds, which were used as farm households by members of the Dajianchang commune, who were also responsible for feeding the livestock.
Sheng Xiping, along with several key members of the educated youth team, discussed the work plan, arranging the tractors at a section far from the log yard, and the ox and horse harness work area at the closer end, in order to maximize work efficiency.
Afterwards, Sheng Xiping didn't rush to start working. Instead, he led his men to make simple repairs to the tractor tracks and sled tracks in the logging area to ensure smooth timber transportation to the greatest extent possible.
Once Chen Weiguo and Wang Jianshe return, the logging will begin.
Wang Jianshe, Guo Yongping, Yu Shuaijun, and Chen Weiguo all received training and certifications over the summer, so this year the educated youth team doesn't need to hire sawers and tractor drivers; they can do the work themselves.
A group of young men in their early twenties put in all their effort and worked hard, determined to compete with other work teams and see which team could produce the most output.
