Wang Meili didn't find it strange at all. "There are several stepmothers in our brigade. It's really strange that they can treat their stepdaughters and stepsons well. But these stepmothers don't dare to make any trouble now. They are all under close watch."
Secretary Zhao sighed, "The women's director can't handle it all by herself. I plan to nominate another cadre from among the female members."
Promoted cadres receive a salary every month.
"Sure, you can discuss it with the brigade officers."
After dividing the money, the brigade members went back to harvesting corn and went to work as needed.
Ten days later, after Datou paid the tax with his tractor, he suddenly stopped being busy.
Xiao Shitou started to get busy with the wedding preparations.
I bought stools, a cabinet, and a table from the carpenter.
Because more and more people have been getting married in the brigade in the past two years, the carpenter and his sons made some tables, stools and cabinets as a reserve.
It was also because of this that Xiao Shitou was able to prepare all these things, and even bought red cloth and asked the tailor to make a dress.
"Brother Yun, Tudan, you guys better come early."
Zhao Xibei looked at this marriage and thought that it would be happening in less than half a month. It was really too fast.
Xiao Shitou did not invite all the members of the brigade to dinner, but only invited some relatives from his family, the brigade leader and Secretary Zhao.
"Brother Shitou, we must arrive early."
Xiao Shitou got home from get off work early today and had to clean up and prepare.
I also borrowed Secretary Zhao's bicycle.
"Brother Ling, the factory is almost finished, and the office building will take another half month or so. Don't we need to build a dormitory?"
At that time, Brother Ling's factory occupied a considerable area.
“We need to build a dormitory building.”
Some of the cadres who come to work in their factory in the future may not be locals. Where will they live?
It costs money anyway if you do it in one step.
"Dad, Brother Shitou is moving so fast. From meeting to getting married in just over ten days."
Zhao Jiaojiao also felt that it was quite fast. Is flash marriage still a common thing in this era?
It took ten days from the time we met to the time we got married.
"This is a flash marriage."
Secretary Zhao looked at his daughter and Ling Yunrui. The two of them were often together, and he didn't know how many people mentioned them.
"Jiaojiao, Xiaorui, you should take advantage of this summer vacation to hold an engagement party."
Zhao Jiaojiao was shocked to hear the news. The chopsticks in her hand dropped to the ground and turned red. She had no idea that her father actually wanted to hold an engagement party for them?
Ling Yunrui, who was always calm, was also a little shocked at this time. He probably never dreamed that his future father-in-law would ask them to get engaged first.
Seeing Ling Yunrui didn't respond for a long time, Secretary Zhao thought he was unwilling and snorted coldly, "If you don't want to, forget it."
Ling Yunrui came back to his senses and hurriedly explained, "Uncle, I am willing. I'm just thinking about how many tables to set up. Should I have a buffet? What else should I prepare? My parents passed away early, and my sister is not in the brigade anymore. I don't know what to do. I need your and Aunt's guidance."
Zhao Xibei really wanted to give his brother Ling a thumbs up. His reaction was too quick.
But he was also worried that his father would be angry.
Engagement, his sister and Brother Ling are finally getting engaged, and no one will say anything about it.
These words sounded so pleasant to Secretary Zhao and Wang Meili.
This young man Ling Yunrui really doesn't know how to go about getting engaged.
"No need for a buffet, just invite all the relatives over for a meal." There's no need to have a buffet, it would cost a lot of money.
