Chapter 25

Set a date

Author: Wei Mo Chu

Set a date

When Nan Qingqing hung up the phone, she was really relieved.

Not only did she let out a breath, but also several other village cadres in the village office also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they sounded particularly stressed by such a domineering aunt.

If Nan Qingqing wanted to give money, the village party secretary would not ask for it, so she should not worry about it. The phone was installed by the government, not to mention that the call was made by Nan Qingqing's aunt.

Nan Qingqing expressed her gratitude, but before she left, she heard the village women's director enter the office angrily.

The gossip factor immediately kicked in, and Nan Qingqing came over to ask what happened.

When the women's director saw Nan Qingqing, she clapped her hands and said, "Nan educated youth will also comment on this matter!"

The women's director was annoyed by Nan Jiaojiao and Hu Chunsheng. After they received the certificate, they insisted on a separate house as their wedding room, but there were countless houses in the village.

"It's not that our village didn't allocate them a building. They were allotted a building, but they needed to repair it themselves before they could live in it. It turned out that these two people were fine, but they were reluctant to pay and wanted the village to build it for them!"

The female director was very angry, and several other village cadres also said: "This is a bit too much. In our village, all the people in our village have been allocated homesteads to build their own houses!"

Not so greedy.

Nan Qingqing could guess why Nan Jiaojiao and Hu Chunsheng cared so much about this matter. It was simply that they didn't want to spend money and were afraid that if they left, the house would still have to be taken back.

But who asked them to get married?

"Isn't there a house for them to live in the courtyard of the educated youth? Why do they have to move out?"

Nan Jiaojiao and Hu Chunsheng are both educated youths, and they are also educated youths when they get married, unlike Nan Qingqing.

The female director became even more angry when she heard this.

"Yes, but those two don't pay much attention to what they have in the evening. The courtyard of the educated youth is full of bachelors and young girls. Who can stand it?"

When it comes to this, the female director has endless complaints.

Several other village cadres winked and showed tacit understanding.

In the final analysis, it is still caused by not paying attention to it.

Nan Qingqing suddenly had some doubts about the plot in the book. How did two such unscrupulous people not get pregnant for three years and get so much good luck after returning to the city?

Is it really the halo of the protagonist?

She was not interested in caring about Nan Jiaojiao and Hu Chunsheng, but was curious about one thing: "Nan Jiaojiao was taken away, how could she be put back without any problems?"

If she remembers correctly, Nan Jiaojiao's false accusations will be dealt with severely.

Before the women's director could answer, the village accountant started to explain: "Why else? It's not because Hu Zhiqing has a background, and the old witch doesn't dare to offend him!"

The old witch the village accountant was talking about was the director of the Educated Youth Office, a middle-aged woman wearing black-rimmed glasses.

Sure enough, everything depends on the background.

No matter how good Hu Chunsheng is, he cannot be compared to such a remote mountain village.

Nan Qingqing was thinking about something else. Last time she tried to make Nan Jiaojiao's betrothed cause a scene and cheated Hu Chunsheng of five thousand yuan. According to how much Hu Chunsheng disliked her, it was impossible not to do something.

What.

I just don’t know when it will come.

Nan Qingqing waited until the women's director had finished talking before saying goodbye and leaving.

On the way back, I met Lin Qiuping, who was returning from the fields with a hoe. They still had to go to work.

Lin Qiuping asked Nan Qingqing when the wedding would be held. Nan Qingqing shook her head and had not set a date. Instead, she was concerned about how Lin Qiuping and the others were doing. Is it really that difficult to rest at night?

Lin Qiuping just vividly described what Nan Jiaojiao and Hu Chunsheng did, which was indeed very disturbing.

"You're fine now. You don't live in the small courtyard for educated youth. I don't know how unscrupulous they two are!"

You don’t have any shame, do you still care about that?

"But I heard that someone has returned to the city. What do you think? Do you want to go back to the city?"

Lin Qiuping lowered her voice and Nan Qingqing shook her head.

"I'm already married. I must be marrying a chicken or a dog. What are you doing back in the city?"

Nan Qingqing has no obsession with returning to the city. She has no ambition to build a business empire. With the existence of a collection system, she can complete her tasks better in the village.

What's more, she always felt like she didn't completely belong here.

Lin Qiuping sighed: "I would like to go back to the city, but you also know the situation of our family. I have two younger brothers, and the living space at home is only so big. If I go back, I probably won't even have a place to sleep!"

Lin Qiuping's home is in Haishi, which is indeed a big city and life is indeed very difficult for ordinary people.

Nan Qingqing patted her shoulder: "It's better to go back if you can. Do you want to get married if you stay here?"

Lin Qiuping shook her head.

Nan Qingqing remembered that the college entrance examination would be resumed in two years, and reminded her: "If you have time to read more, you can become a teacher if you don't have time!"

These educated youths all have high school education or above, and most of them will be assigned to do things related to writing. However, teachers have been disliked in recent years, so no one is willing to do it.

But Nan Qingqing couldn't directly talk about the resumption of the college entrance examination, so she mentioned the profession of teacher in a roundabout way.

Lin Qiuping obviously didn't understand Nan Qingqing's intention and waved her hand: "I don't want to be a teacher. The children here are too disobedient!"

Children in the countryside are used to being wild, but they are not so easy to discipline.

That's all Nan Qingqing could say, and he couldn't say more. The two of them separated when they reached the village. Nan Qingqing returned home, and Jiang Beiting had returned. He was cleaning up the mess on the floor in the room, and the walls were being repaired.

Okay, there's nothing to tidy up inside.

When Nan Qingqing came back, he didn't ask her what she was doing, but asked her to go to the kitchen to accompany her grandma.

As soon as Nan Qingqing entered the kitchen, she saw her grandma kneading dough. Next to her was the prepared stuffing for cabbage, vermicelli and tofu. She was making dumplings.

The cabbage is autumn cabbage, and it has been frosted. It is best to make dumplings when it is wilted.

Nan Qingqing didn't understand this, and her grandma didn't want her to do the work, so she just let her play by herself and chat with her.

"Dabei asked the captain's mother to settle the date and have a banquet in three days. What do you think?"

Grandma suddenly mentioned the wedding, but Nan Qingqing didn't expect it.

"Really having a banquet? I don't want to!"

Grandma glared at her, "What are you talking about? Marriage is a big deal, how can you not do it?"

How dare Nan Qingqing say that she didn't want to hold a fake wedding? It's not that she didn't have expectations for her wedding, but it was definitely not the kind she would have in the village, but she couldn't explain it.

Grandma was still saying that the banquet should be well managed, and asked her not to worry. Tomorrow, Jiang Beiting would go hunting in the back mountains to get some meat to look good.

Nan Qingqing was forced to listen for a while, and finally waited for her grandma to release her, then went to find Jiang Beiting.

"Can we just have a banquet and not go through any procedures?"

Is there anyone who prefers not to have a wedding ceremony?
