Chapter 242 Gift
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting found a day to go directly to the county town, after all, they had to get a marriage certificate.
Song Moting deliberately found his most formal clothes. In fact, among the clothes he brought with him was a very formal Zhongshan suit, but if he wore a Zhongshan suit in this weather, people would probably laugh at him and think he was crazy, so he found a white shirt that had been washed so well that the collar had turned a little white.
He had his hair cut, showered, and shaved in advance. Not to mention the way he was dressed up, he immediately looked eye-catching.
Song Moting was already about 1.9 meters tall, and he looked very energetic after getting dressed like this.
Standing in the yard, both the mother-in-law and the father-in-law immediately felt relieved.
This son-in-law is good-looking and has a good temper. After spending the past two days together, they feel it is safe to entrust their daughter to Song Moting.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was forced to wear a pink Dacron shirt that her mother took out of the box. There was nothing she could do because the shirt was bought by her mother in the city and she didn't want to wear it as she didn't have such a strong preference for festive colors.
Besides, you are so young that you would feel it is hard to see if you wear this color when you go out.
Who would wear this kind of clothes when working on the farm on weekdays, so this piece of clothes has been kept at the bottom of the closet.
This time, her mother rummaged through it, took it out and ordered her to put it on.
Her thick dark hair was braided into two braids that hung over her shoulders.
Jiang Xiaoxiao's skin was naturally fair. Although she got tanned from working in the fields, her skin color was still brighter than others.
Her eyebrows are picturesque, her skin is as white as jade, there is a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and the light in her eyes exudes a charming charm.
Fan Xiuying even deliberately put so much lotion on her face that she was almost putting on powder.
If this kind of powder wasn't hard to find on the farm, her mother would probably force her to draw her eyebrows and eyes.
With great difficulty, the two of them sat awkwardly on the bus to work.
Jiang Xiaoxiao urged Song Moting to get in the car quickly, fearing that his mother would catch up with him.
Fan Xiuying went back to find red paper, saying that her daughter's lips were not bright enough, and that the red paper could at least add some color to her lips. Also, the color of her face was a little off, so if she applied the red paper a little bit higher, it would add a little more pink.
Jiang Xiaoxiao felt terrified when she thought of this result, fearing that her mother would dress her up with a red face and rosy lips.
Just thinking about the two red spots on her cheeks made her want to grin.
That was the standard for all the little actors who went on stage in that era, with red cheeks and a little red between the eyebrows. His mother almost put a little more red between her eyebrows.
When Song Moting saw Jiang Xiaoxiao's embarrassed look as she escaped to the work bus, he really wanted to laugh.
Many people in the car saw how they were dressed, and many were whispering, mainly because they were wearing such bright clothes and it looked like they were going to get a marriage certificate.
Generally speaking, people who dress so neatly and beautifully to go out in their place are mostly getting married. Even when visiting relatives, they would not dress like this.
Jiang Xiaoxiao blushed and stood towards the door.
The car was already packed with people.
Song Moting stood beside him, holding the handle of the car with one hand and using his body to protect Jiang Xiaoxiao. The main reason was that there were too many people on the car, and most people went to the county town to buy and sell things, so you can imagine how many things and people are on the car now.
Chickens and ducks are indispensable.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiaoxiao had already gotten used to it. It wasn’t her first time going to the county town anyway.
After several hours of bumpy ride, they finally arrived at the county town. The two got off the car, and Jiang Xiaoxiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Xiao, Mo Ting, you are here. We have been waiting for you for a long time."
When Jiang Xiaoxiao heard the voice, she turned around and saw her eldest sister and brother-in-law holding their eldest daughter, smiling at them at the station entrance.
"Sister, brother-in-law, why are you here? Aren't you going to work today? How did you know we were coming? And you're holding Niuniu. Come here, Niuniu! Auntie will hug you."
When Niu Niu saw her aunt, she immediately rushed over with her arms open happily.
Jiang Yue hugged the child tightly, "You went crazy when you saw your aunt. In the past, you and your aunt were allowed to play around, but not today. Your aunt came to the county town to do something important."
The little girl looked at her own mother holding her so tightly and twisted her body a little unhappily.
"Sister, what are you talking about? Please give Niuniu to me. I have been missing my child for a long time."
Jiang Xiaoxiao opened her hands and snatched Niu Niu from her mother's arms, held her in her arms, and gently touched Niu Niu's fair cheek with her fingers.
The little girl giggled with joy.
"If you like children, you can have them yourself in the future. Don't always snatch our daughter away. Today we are here to get married, and you are still dawdling here. Your brother-in-law and I are waiting for you here. Look, your brother-in-law has pushed a bicycle over. He borrowed it from Section Chief Wei, so it will be more convenient for you to go to the street.
Here is 50 yuan. You and Mo Ting can go to the department store and buy some things. It is a little gift from your elder sister and brother-in-law for your wedding. Don't be polite. The wedding is coming soon, so you have to buy some wedding candy or something.
Even if you don't want it, there are so many people on the farm, we can't just let them sit there and do nothing."
The couple was afraid that their sister and brother-in-law would go back early after getting the marriage certificate and they would not be able to catch up, so they came here in advance to block them.
Jiang Xiaoxiao refused, "Sister, I'm your sister, how can you be so polite? I won't be happy if you do this."
She has quite a bit of money, with at least 70,000 or 80,000 yuan in her savings account.
Who would have known that she is a rich woman now.
"You kid, just because you are my sister and I helped your sister, do you think your brother-in-law is so generous? I only give you 50 yuan as a gift, which is not a lot. If you are like this, are you going to force me and your brother-in-law to return your 1,000 yuan to you?"
Jiang Yue was unhappy. She had discussed the 50 yuan with Qin Ming. After discussing for a long time, they felt that 50 yuan could not express their gratitude to their sister. They were grateful to Jiang Xiaoxiao, and this sister was so kind to them from the bottom of her heart.
If they didn't do something, both of them would feel guilty.
In fact, the couple prepared a bicycle for Jiang Xiaoxiao.
They have already got the bicycle tickets and money, but the department store is out of stock right now.
They have asked Section Chief Wei to think of a solution, and they estimate it should arrive within the next two days.
They thought that before they got married, they should be able to send the bicycle to their sister on the farm.
After all, with a bicycle, it would be more convenient for them to travel back and forth.
But this cannot be said.
A bicycle is a bicycle, and the money was given because they felt that when two people get married, at least preparing for the wedding would cost a lot of money. They knew the situation of their farm. They suffered a disaster last year, so they only gave out money once at the end of the year.
The autumn harvest hasn’t come yet this year, how can we have money to give them?
Let them come up with their own money for the wedding. Both of them are educated youth and are so far away from home. They can't ask their families for money now.
Naturally, it would be very difficult to get married, but the couple had a salary every month no matter what.
Of course, it was also because Jiang Yue didn’t want her sister’s wedding to be so shabby.
When I got married, I just did it to get together, so don't even think about treating everyone to wedding candy.
Her mother-in-law was so stingy that she only put a small plate of candy on the table, and no one could get a piece of it.
Not to mention melon seeds, I didn’t even buy any peanuts.
Later, many people talked about it.
So she hoped that her sister's wedding would be a lively one, and her parents would be there this time.
