Since I have decided to marry Lin Ranran, I must go to Lin Ranran's hometown.
Mai Xiangbei is not stupid. He knows that he is old, but he already has children and he must get married.
So, he got the marriage certificate first and then went to visit his father-in-law.
Since we have already executed it first and reported it later, we might as well do it more thoroughly.
In addition, Mai Xiangbei was very generous and asked Mai Sui to help borrow a car from the armed forces department in Lin Ranran's hometown, showing his sincerity.
Lin Ranran's parents saw that the matter was done, and Mai Xiangbei, who had been specially dressed up, looked like he was only 27 or 28 years old and did not look old at all.
This is thanks to the excellent genes of the old Mai family.
The most important thing is that my daughter likes it.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin finally agreed, and everyone was happy!
As for how Mai Sui borrowed the car, that’s not difficult.
Generally speaking, the head of a county’s armed forces department is a regimental-level cadre.
A division commander in Mai Sui calls you to borrow his car, would you have the nerve to refuse?
I'm not asking you to kill people or burn things.
You are not willing to do such a simple thing. Do you want to make an enemy or something?
The people in the armed forces department are not stupid. Since they can find his phone number and even mention his name, it must be true.
It would be a shame not to make use of the good fortune that comes to your door; who knows, it might become a way forward in the future.
So, just like that, Mai Xiangbei and Lin Ranran held a grand wedding in Lianhua Village on the day before the Spring Festival in 1978.
Mai Xiangbei doesn’t have a house in the village, and even if he builds one now, it won’t be that fast, so he still lives in Mai Laosan’s house.
There is a part in the wedding that requires the child to roll around on the bed of the newlyweds, which symbolizes the birth of a baby soon.
Mai Liangcai's wife Song Xiaojuan gave birth to twins, so this task fell on them.
After they rolled around in Mai Xiangbei's room, Shen Xingchen quietly carried them to his room and let them roll around on the bed.
When Song Xiaojuan came over to look for her baby, she happened to see it and almost laughed to death.
Shen Xingchen was a little embarrassed at first, but then she laughed with Song Xiaojuan and even asked her if she had any secret recipe for getting pregnant and having a baby.
Upon hearing this, Song Xiaojuan immediately whispered with concern: "What's wrong? Did Mai Sui get injured in the army?"
"Of course not! My wife is fine!" Shen Xingchen explained immediately, "Yes...I want to eat it. Isn't there a secret recipe for men to eat it?"
Song Xiaojuan looked Shen Xingchen up and down. Compared with her man Mai Liangcai, Shen Xingchen was indeed a little "fragile".
Isn't this nonsense!
Before Mai Liangcai went to work in the factory, he was a farmer, and Shen Xingchen was just a pen-holder. There is no comparison between the two, okay!
"Xiao Shen, I'm not saying anything bad about you, you really need to take care of yourself! I'll take care of this matter. As long as you do as I say, I guarantee you'll have a big fat boy next year!"
Song Xiaojuan patted her chest and promised solemnly.
Xiao Shen is a cultured man, and he actually asked her for help. She must get this done!
Even if she has to go through fire and water, she will let Xiao Shen have a baby next year!
There’s nothing you can do about it, rural people are just so simple and unpretentious!
Shen Xingchen was delighted: "Then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law! But...can you please not let too many people know about this? Just keep it a secret between us two."
"Don't worry, don't worry, I understand!"
Men all want to save face. Song Xiaojuan understood Shen Xingchen's concerns very well and didn't even tell her husband Mai Liangcai.
I have to say, Song Xiaojuan is a good person! She is really good at keeping secrets!
So, on the second day of the Chinese New Year, Song Xiaojuan went back to her parents' home to visit relatives and brought a bunch of pitch-black "secret recipes" for Shen Xingchen.
The two met mysteriously in the back mountain.
"Xiao Shen, I asked, and this secret recipe can be eaten by men too! Back then, I got pregnant with twins because of this!"
"Really? Thank you so much, sister-in-law!" Shen Xingchen's eyes lit up, and he thanked Song Xiaojuan profusely, then took out a stack of money to give to her.
"No! No!" Song Xiaojuan quickly declined, "It's just a few herbs, not worth much."
"That won't work! Sister-in-law, if you don't accept it, I will be embarrassed to ask you for help next time."
Finally, under Shen Xingchen's insistence, Song Xiaojuan had to accept the ten yuan.
After that, Shen Xingchen boiled medicine at home every day, and had three meals a day, which was more punctual than eating.
When Mai Sui asked him what was wrong, he said that he was tired from reading recently and just wanted to eat something to replenish his body.
Shen Xingchen did read books every day, but Mai Sui felt that reading for a few hours would not make him so tired that he needed to drink Chinese medicine to replenish his body.
The only possibility is that they “fight” a little too fiercely every night.
Compared with before, this is definitely not on the same level.
So, this is fake?
After Mai Sui imagined it, his expression became a little complicated.
Shen Xingchen has been with the Mai Sui couple for so long, and when he saw her like this, he almost understood immediately.
Therefore, in order to prove that he is not weak, a battle of three hundred rounds at night is inevitable.
Then, get up the next morning and continue decocting the medicine.
Mai Laosan originally disliked Shen Xingchen for allowing him to just boil medicine at home during the New Year when there was nothing wrong with his body.
Because this is a bad omen.
But after Lin Ranran married Mai Xiangbei, didn’t they live with Mai Laosan?
After she became pregnant, she had a severe reaction and vomited everything she ate.
But ever since Shen Xingchen started to torture her, Lin Ranran's morning sickness miraculously disappeared after she smelled the medicine, and everything she ate tasted delicious!
Mai Xiangbei was very happy, so he asked Shen Xingchen where he bought the medicine so that he could buy some too.
He was afraid that after Shen Xingchen returned to the military region after the vacation, if Lin Ranran vomited again, he would have to fry it himself.
Shen Xingchen:.......
How could Shen Xingchen have the nerve to talk about this? Should he say that he was secretly preparing for pregnancy?
Mai Xiangbei was newly married and was thinking about his little wife. He obviously didn't see Shen Xingchen's dilemma and kept asking him:
"Xingchen, why are you silent? Let me ask you, where did you buy this Chinese medicine?"
"Uncle, how about I buy some more for you and keep them at home so you can fry them whenever you need them."
But Mai Xiangbei refused, as he was afraid that the Chinese medicine would become damp if left for too long.
If he was eating it himself, it wouldn't matter what happened, but since it involved his wife and children, Mai Xiangbei didn't mind the trouble and went to buy fresh ones himself.
Shen Xingchen had no choice but to expose Song Xiaojuan: "My sister-in-law bought it for me. I don't know where she bought it."
Then, Mai Xiangbei went to find Song Xiaojuan.
Originally this was just a trivial matter, but unexpectedly, Song Xiaojuan was very loyal and insisted that she had never bought any Chinese medicine.
Mai Xiangbei:......
