The day before May Day, Geng Yue returned from the county, and with her returned to the village a tractor with a women's bicycle and a sewing machine on it. Shen Anning was waiting in the infirmary early, waiting for her first little sister to come to Wangtu Village.
Looking at Geng Yue's rosy face, Chen An Ning guessed that she must be extremely satisfied with this marriage. They had a blind date a few months ago, and now they were getting married. Although Chen An Ning felt it was a bit fast, it was like this in this era.
"I'm going to be a bride. I'm so happy about this happy event!"
"An Ning, you're making fun of me too. Well, I'll tickle you." Geng Yue put down the thing in his hand and tickled Shen An Ning's itchy spot with a smile.
"Hahaha, Yueyue, Aoao, Sister Yue, I was wrong, I was wrong."
The two of them quarreled for a while, and Shen Anning could hardly speak, breathing heavily.
Geng Yue looked at Shen Anning, who was becoming more and more beautiful, and asked: "Anning, you have been here for several years. I know you don't belong here, but according to the current situation, there is probably no hope for the educated youth to return to the city in the next few years. Have you thought about what to do?"
Shen Anning lay down on the chair and said, "Let's take it one step at a time. I believe that this world will not continue to be in chaos. You have also seen that the number of admissions to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University has increased in the past two years, which shows that our country is still short of talent. People say that knowledge is useless, but the minimum requirement for factory recruitment is not a junior high school diploma. And those technical jobs with high salaries, which one does not have some skills?"
"Also, Yueyue, look at my family. My younger brothers and sisters are in school, and my niece is still young. I definitely don't have the energy to think about major life events for the time being."
Geng Yue was well aware of the situation. "An Ning, you should be careful with the kids. The harsher sentences for hooliganism in recent years have helped the scoundrels around here become more restrained. After all, this is a mountainous area, and many of the elderly are uneducated. You can't be sure they'll be stupid enough to help with bad things."
Shen Anning knew that Geng Yue was really thinking about her, but there were some things she couldn't say for the time being.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about me. It's still early for me. Let's talk about you. You're getting married soon. How are you getting along with your brother-in-law? I only saw him from afar once when you two were on a blind date. Are his family treating you well?"
Talking about her boyfriend, Geng Yue's face was full of smiles. "My uncle introduced him to me. He's a regular employee in the purchasing department of the county supply and marketing cooperative. His name is Wang Chengdong. It's a bit of fate. He's two years older than us and went to the same high school. He's 22 years old this year. He had very good grades back then, and after graduation, he took over his grandfather's job at the supply and marketing cooperative. His grandfather used to be the director, so he's doing pretty well, right?"
"My uncle said his family has been a single-son family for three generations. His parents both have formal jobs and they have a big house. Even though I'll be living with my parents-in-law and grandparents after I get married, their family is good and I'm sure I won't suffer."
Shen Anning listened to Geng Yue's description and felt that this family was not bad. Although she had never been married in her previous life, she also knew that most of the conflicts between women and their in-laws after marriage were because of money. The rich bought a house and did not live together. It was always good to get along with each other.
"From what you said, Wang Chengdong is a man you can trust. He bought you three big things for your wedding. I heard from many gossipy aunties in the village that your betrothal gift was 188, which is quite high in the village. Just because he was willing to spend money on you before the wedding, it proves that I am a very good sister-in-law."
No one doesn't like to hear nice words. Geng Yue hugged Shen An Ning and said, "Remember to come and see me off on my wedding day, May 3rd."
In Northeast China, the bride's family is very particular about getting married. A banquet will be held one day in advance. On the day when the groom comes to pick up the bride, the bride's family has the custom of sending the bride off. The bride's brothers will send her to the groom's house. Geng Yue has only one younger brother, Geng Guoqing. This time he also called the boy from Shen Anyu and Geng Chengyi's family. These three are usually known as the Three Musketeers in the village.
All Shen An Ning had to do was go in the morning, have a meal with Geng Yue, and then send her out.
"Of course, I'm going to go to your wedding. I'm going to cry my heart out during National Day."
The two looked at each other and burst into laughter. Everyone can see how much Geng Guoqing clings to his sister Geng Yue. After all, the most common thing in rural areas is that older children take care of younger children. Geng Guoqing was raised by Geng Yue, and the relationship between the two siblings is very good.
On the 3rd, Shen Anning got up early, and An Yu and An Xuan didn't have to go to school. The four of them dressed neatly, took their bicycles and gifts, and prepared to go to Geng Yue's wedding.
Guoqing had already agreed with Shen Anyu to ride their bicycles together to see his sister off.
The gifts prepared by Shen Anning were very generous, including two red wedding pillowcases, two bars of jasmine-scented soap, two pairs of red cashmere socks, two enamel cups, and two toothbrushes. A total of ten gifts symbolized perfection.
Because Geng Yue was the granddaughter of the old village chief and the daughter of the new village chief, the wedding was very grand. Almost everyone in the village came to join in the fun. Shen Anning squeezed through the crowd holding Xixi, and her hair was messed up.
Entering the room, I saw Geng Yue sitting in front of the mirror getting ready to put on makeup. I put the gift in my hand on the table and said, "I thought we got up early, but it turns out there are people waiting at the door to join in the fun."
Geng Yue looked at the gift prepared by Shen An Ning, and was so moved that tears were about to flow out, "An Ning, thank you, I like it very much."
"We are just friends, don't cry, or the groom will be dissatisfied with me."
There was more than one sister who came to see her off to get married. Geng Yue took advantage of the fact that the other sisters had not come yet and solemnly put the gift Shen An Ning had given her into the dowry box to prevent others from coming over and gossiping later.
"Auntie, Auntie Yue looks so beautiful today." Xixi was a little curious when she heard and watched Geng Yue moving the makeup tools around on her face.
