"Isn't he the son of a leader? One of the most respected people in Yuanxi County?"
"Besides this, you don't know anything else. Li Xiangqian is the person that Run Ye's second mother insisted on introducing him to. Regardless of the fact that both his parents are leaders, he is an old and ugly man.
Fat truck driver. You also know that Runye doesn't care about status, do you think such a person is worthy of Runye?" Wang Manyin was only responsible for telling Sun Shaoan the situation, and the choice could only be Shaoan himself.
"At least you are from the city, and your life is better than living with me." If you don't live up to expectations, if you have Shaoping's self-confidence, marrying Tian Runye is nothing.
"What you two do is casual, but you took care of the pig feed field matter quickly. You knew you would be reported and you couldn't handle it yourself, so you just told Dad." Coming to the pig feed field today is business, and business is still important.
a little.
Speaking of Sun Shaoan, Wang Manyin was also partly responsible for not being able to get a wife.
There was no betrothal gift for marrying Lan Hua. If the Sun family had a share of the betrothal gift money, maybe Sun Shaoan would not be single until twenty-three.
This is the situation in rural areas. There are many children in the family, both sons and daughters. In poor areas, betrothal gifts are more expensive. They are all rural people. How can ordinary people be so rich? I don’t know when it started. The current situation is like this
If a daughter marries without receiving a betrothal gift, a son will marry a wife without a betrothal gift, and the cycle continues endlessly, even if he wants to marry without a betrothal gift.
Wang Manyin took advantage of himself and tricked Sun Shaoan.
"Orchid, orchid!" After talking to Sun Shaoping, Wang Manyin was ready to leave. There was food at home. Unlike before, why would he still be willing to eat sorghum and black bean porridge at Sun's house.
"Hey, I heard it."
"It's getting late, we should go home."
Wang Manyin's family lives a very primitive life. They don't even have the simplest household appliance, a flashlight. Because there is no pollution now, there is moonlight and starlight, and you can see the road clearly when you go back at night. It's raining today and the sky is a bit cloudy, so you must go back as soon as possible.
"Lanhua, don't you want to go back after dinner?" Sun Yuhou asked.
"The weather is bad today. We have to go there early. After dinner, it will get dark and the road will be invisible." Wang Manyin answered quickly.
…
It was still cloudy the next day and the captain didn't ring the bell, so naturally he didn't have to go to work.
After working as a sheep herder for a few days, Wang Manyin was still thinking about the sheep. He even went to the production team headquarters to take a look at the condition of the sheep. If the sheep are not being herded, they are all in the sheep pen and fed with hay and feed. Li Laishun alone is enough. The breeder
Taking care of livestock can be regarded as almost 24 hours a day.
Even during the Chinese New Year, if there are animals that are about to give birth, you can only spend the time with the animals. You can't just envy the breeders for their wealth. It's not because others have contributed.
"Lanhua, what are you going to do?" Wang Manyin asked Lanhua, who was about to go out with a hoe.
"While you are not at work today and are taking care of the children at home, I will go hoe the grass on your own land!"
"Didn't you just hoe a few days ago? Don't worry. I have arrangements for today. You will change yourself, Mao Dan and Gou Dan into better clothes. I will take you to go shopping in the county today, and then give our whole family some
Let’s take a photo together.”
When visiting Ghost King Manyin, she only cares about herself. Lanhua can count the number of times she has been to Chengxian County on her fingers, and she has never been to Maodan or Goudan.
"Let's go to the county town! Then I'll make pancakes for us to eat at noon." Lanhua said happily. For the villagers of Guan Guan Village, going to the Stone Ge Festival is a big event, and going to the county town is equivalent to traveling.
"We have food stamps. You can go to the restaurant to eat directly at noon. You don't need to prepare dry food."
"If you have food stamps, it's not such a waste. Even if you buy white flour steamed buns, they won't be as delicious as the pancakes you bring."
After thinking about it for a while, it seemed like I wouldn’t be able to eat anything in a restaurant without a meat ticket.
If Wang Manyin is alone, he can find a jointly owned small restaurant, which may not require meat coupons. If he pays more money, he can have a meal of meat and vegetables.
I want to take my wife and children to a state-owned canteen for a meal. Without meat tickets, I will definitely not be able to eat anything. It really doesn’t make much sense.
"You can do it if you want to, I'll go to the brigade headquarters to open a letter of introduction!"
Wang Manyin took three steps and wandered to the brigade headquarters, "Brother Mancang, please open a letter of introduction. I want to take my mother-in-law and my children to the city for fun." Then he took out his economical cigarette, which is a social artifact.
Even though Wang Mancang's family was quite wealthy, he smoked cigarettes most of the time, so he only went to public places to socialize and buy a few packs of cigarettes.
The reason is very simple. You can’t afford the expensive ones, and cheap cigarettes are not as easy to smoke as tobacco leaves grown by yourself.
Why spend money when you can get it for free? Farmers can't live a more refined life. This kind of economical cigarette only looks better than your own pipe and pot.
"Why do you have to run out again? Even if you don't go to work today, why can't you stay at home and run your private plot?" Wang Mancang's impression of Wang Manyin still hasn't changed, and he said in a bad tone.
If it weren't for something else, Wang Manyin would really want to stay and say goodbye to the village party secretary for three days, as if they were seeing each other with admiration.
"Our orchids are not at work right now, so I am only needed to keep the land on our own. After finally having a day off, I am going to take the orchids and children to the county town for a stroll. Just wait, I went to the county town to prepare.
Bring two bottles of good wine back, and I’ll meet you for a drink someday when I’m free.”
"What kind of wine can you buy? If you want to drink, just come to our house. If you have some money, you can live a good life." Wang Mancang, the village party secretary, is quite qualified and is thinking about the life of every member of Gugan Village.
After returning home with the letter of introduction, Wang Manyin saw several aunts, sisters-in-law, and daughters-in-law coming to the house.
"Lanhua, go to the city and buy me a box of clam oil."
"Orchid, there are some nice handkerchiefs in the city, buy me two."
…
Although there are men from several families in Guan Guan Village who work in the county town, there is no Orchid that can come and return on the same day.
For daily shopping in Guan Guan Village, a salesman from the Shige Festival Commune Supply and Marketing Cooperative comes to the village every once in a while, bringing some commonly used kerosene, salt, needlework, alkaline noodles, candies and other small items.
When the sales agent comes to the village, he will hear the announcement from the brigade, asking the members to buy it as soon as possible if they need it.
Because people go out to work in the mountains and there is no one at home, or they don’t have all the things they bring with them, it is normal for people in the village or neighborhood to help carry things when they go to the Stone Ge Festival or Yuanxi County.
Life in rural areas cannot be separated from the help of neighbors. Just like Lanhua used to take care of her children at home alone. After she went to work, there was no one at home and she needed help from her neighbors to buy things.
It's scattered and quite complicated. Orchid can use his own method to remember clearly who needs to buy what and how much. It can be seen that Orchid is also a college student if he goes to school.
