Chapter 352 Marriage
He Yuxiang learned it and secretly taught his sister every night. The summer vacation was about to end and the educated youth were about to go to the countryside. He was afraid that his sister would suddenly apply to go to the countryside in the future.
There is an older brother living nearby. He used to look like a tall, thin and gentle young man. After working in the countryside for three years, he applied for retirement due to illness and came back now. He is dark and thin like a stick, with a limp. His neighbors say that he "looks like one of the people in the early 1960s, who has been worn out by life and has become a nobody."
He Yuxiang was so scared that he had nightmares when he came back home that night.
His sister is mentally ill and likes to do farm work every day. In addition, people from the Youth League Office come to hold meetings in every study to encourage high school and technical secondary school students.
The slogans were chanted loudly.
“The educated youth have great ambitions and are rooted in the countryside and in the frontier areas.”
"The leader waved his hand and I moved forward. It is necessary for the educated youth to go to the countryside and receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants.
want!"
…
He Yuxiang was terrified when he heard this.
He felt that once his sister was instigated by the Youth League Office, she would immediately go to the Youth League Office to register.
So He Yuxiang thought about teaching his sister more things, so that it would be good for her to do whatever she wants to do when she grows up.
Xiaoyu's eyelids were drooping. She folded her hands and lay on the straw mat, mumbling, "I have to go to school when I get home."
"You can learn English if Maomao asks you to, so what's wrong with me teaching you how to build a house?"
To teach my sister how to build a house.
Tell her the basic theory.
He doesn't work anymore.
As a result, his sister didn't know how to sit or stand properly, and just lay down on the bed, which made He Yuxiang so angry that he wanted to curse.
Xiaoyu doesn't want to learn.
She has no interest in the house.
He Yuxiang used his ultimate move: "Follow me and I'll give you fried dough sticks tomorrow."
"OK!"
Xiaoyu immediately sat cross-legged, placed her hands on her knees, her eyes full of desire for the fried dough sticks.
He Yuxiang took a deep breath and said to her: "First of all, what is the most important thing about a house?"
"Lay the foundation!"
Xiao Yu returned.
He Yuxiang was surprised: "How do you know?"
"My aunt and uncle both said that the foundation of the house must be laid firmly. I asked my aunt why it must be laid firmly. My aunt said that the foundation is like our feet, it is very important, otherwise we will fall. Oh, brother Dongfei told me that they used concrete to lay the foundation. Concrete is very simple, just like mixing flour. First, there is cement, and then there are gravel and sand. Just mix them!"
Xiaoyu remembers it very clearly.
She raised her chin slightly.
Eyes full of pride.
He Yuxiang: "Then you know quite a lot."
"Because after the house is built, my aunt and uncle will get married, hehe." Xiaoyu is looking forward to the house being completed soon and her uncle coming home soon.
He Yuxiang was slightly satisfied. "The walls of our house are hollow walls, which are red bricks on the outside and filled with broken bricks and slag inside. Do you know?"
"I know. My aunt said hollow walls are not good." Xiaoyu remembered that her aunt said hollow walls would be dangerous.
He Yuxiang: "I don't know where she heard it from, it's fake. Hollow walls are hard to come by now. We use solid red bricks. Do you know how to build a wall?"
"I know. Take the scraper and scrape here and there, swishing..."
Xiaoyu waved her hands as she spoke.
He Yuxiang looked down at the few remaining contents on his notebook and continued to talk about how to build a roof.
The two siblings chatted until very late, and only went to bed when their aunt urged them to.
Chen Qing looked at the house that was about to be completed and thought about getting married soon, and felt inexplicably nervous.
Although she and He Yuan got along very well, this was Chen Qing's first marriage, and the feeling of finding a life partner was also very wonderful.
When the house was finally completed, Chen Qing and He Yuan separately applied to the organization to get married.
Since neither of them is a soldier, the marriage review is not very strict. As long as it is not bigamy, it can be approved.
When Director Liu saw Chen Qing's application, he was very excited: "You are finally getting married!"
It’s been almost a year of going through this, and finally the wonderful moment of getting married has arrived.
Chen Qing: “Yes.”
As time went on, she understood more and more, and she could sense her own stability.
The married partner is He Yuan.
She is very happy.
For many people, marriage is a choice that needs to be made with great caution. Chen Qing thought very clearly that if her marriage partner was He Yuan, she would at least not regret it.
Getting married is something that requires impulse, but for her, it is more like a natural process.
Director Liu approved it in one second.
He Yuan took the marriage application form to Mao Jianguo and asked him to sign it.
Mao Jianguo saw that He Yuan's wish had come true and said with a smile, "You can finally marry Chen Qing."
"Um."
He Yuan's eyes were filled with smile.
He took the application form from Chen Qing that Mao Jianguo handed back to him, and he and Chen Qing went to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
There are three days of marriage leave.
The two planned to use the three days of marriage leave to get their marriage certificate.
On the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married, He Yuan was happy to hear the clicking sound of the bicycle chain.
"He Yuan!"
Chen Qing shouted three times.
He Yuan: “Ah?”
"I remember the Civil Affairs Bureau is on the left." Chen Qing reminded.
He Yuan looked to the left, his expression embarrassed, "I remembered it wrongly."
"Are you nervous?"
"……yes."
"Me too. It's my first marriage after all."
"The only time."
He Yuan corrected her choice of words.
He was really paranoid today. When he saw every object and scene, he hoped that the other party would carve the word "囍" on it. He couldn't stand anyone saying bad words, even if what the other party said had nothing to do with him, he would get annoyed. He just hoped that every word he heard today would be auspicious.
Today is an auspicious day to get the certificate, which was calculated by three masters in secret.
July 2: Good for marriage
This day will become his favorite day of his life.
After arriving at the Civil Affairs Bureau, He Yuan pushed the bicycle into the bicycle shed and walked in with Chen Qing.
There was only a mottled wooden table and two chairs in the Civil Affairs Bureau office.
The comrade in charge of registration was in his early forties and was making tea.
The tea leaves expanded in the enamel pot, and the heat blurred his glasses.
He noticed someone coming and said without even looking up, "Proof."
Chen Qing and He Yuan took out various certificates and household registration books and handed them over with both hands.
The registrar checked carefully, and the pen made a rustling sound on the paper.
He Yuan stood straight.
"Sign here." The registrar pushed two forms over and said, "Take a seat."
The two of them sat down obediently.
Chen Qing took the pen and was a little nervous, but she still signed her name in one go. When she turned around, He Yuan was looking at her.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
The corners of He Yuan's mouth rose slightly, and he quickly wrote his name.
The registrar stamped the marriage certificate, and Chen Qing and He Yuan officially became husband and wife recognized by the state.
"Congratulations on becoming revolutionary couples." The registrar handed over two marriage certificates. "Treasure yourselves."
"Yes."
The two of them took it with great care.
At this point, Comrade Chen Qing and Comrade He Yuan officially became a couple recognized by national law.
