Return to 1981 and start from breaking off the engagement

Chapter 96 Father Yao Xiangui’s proposal
The second sister-in-law, Yan Suxia, was extremely embarrassed. She was scolded by her father-in-law openly and covertly, and the needle prick in her hand was painful. In the end, Yao Weifang's ridicule made her unable to sit still.

"You eat, don't worry about me." She nodded and waved her hands vaguely: "I'll go to the dining room to see if the water on the stove has boiled." After saying that, she got off the kang and left the house.

"Junzi, your second sister-in-law has been doing quite well recently. Don't be as knowledgeable as her." Yao Xiangui saw Yan Suxia entering the dining room through the window, and then explained softly to Yao Weijun.

"Hey, dad, you care about Lao Wu enough now. What's the matter? Are you afraid that he will feel unhappy and won't buy canned food for you in the future?"

Yao Weifang joked with a smile.

But it can be clearly seen that she is really surprised on her face. Like the scene just now, in the past, her father would not blame the second sister-in-law like this. He would even scold Junzi for talking too little, let alone He took the initiative to comfort me.

But she quickly figured out the reason.

Today's Junzi is no longer the fifth-year-old who was just messing around. Not only did he start from scratch and make money by doing business, he is also the leader of sideline business development in the village. His new house is decorated with commune certificates. His brand is no joke. He is definitely a famous figure in the village now.

My father used to show off as the fourth child and count on the second child, but now he reckons that the fifth child also occupies a very important position in his heart, so he cares so much about it and doesn't hesitate to scold the second sister-in-law in person.

"Stop messing around! The fifth child is the youngest, so I should be loyal to him. There's nothing wrong with being envious!"

After Yao Xiangui finished speaking, he turned around with a smile and went out of the house to continue teasing his two grandchildren.

Yao Weifang's two children, the older one is called An Hong, who is eight years old this year, and the younger one is called An Gang, who is six years old. This time they went back to their grandma's house with their mother to attend their uncle's wedding.

"Grandma, third sister, let's go to the new house to eat at noon. I'll go to the agency to buy some non-staple food, wine and vegetables. I still have pork at home, which I'll stew later!"

Yao Weijun, his grandmother and his third sister were the only ones left in the house. From the window, he saw his mother and second sister-in-law preparing to choose vegetables at the door of the dining room, so he spoke in advance.

"Okay, let your nephews go see your big house, haha..."

Yao Weifang readily agreed.

Yao Weijun basically talks about everything at home now. He went out to talk to his mother and took the whole family to the east end of the village.

"An Hong, An Gang, let's go, uncle will take you to capture the agency and take all the loot!"

On the way, Yao Weijun waved his hand and took his two nephews to the village agency to buy things.

"It's fun for my two children, Junzi, don't spend money on them!"

The third sister Yao Weifang shouted loudly from behind with a smile.

"Yes, I must have gone to buy cans again..." As grandma spoke, she deliberately glanced at the second sister-in-law who was walking forward with her head lowered.

"Why don't we also buy food for our two nephews? Mom, let's not talk about this anymore." Mother Zhu Mei wiped the corners of her eyes when she saw her second brother's family in front, and quickly smoothed things over.

"Nephew dog, nephew dog, if you don't have enough to eat, take it with you. The old saying is true..."

Grandma's main concern is that Yao Weijun spends money, and it doesn't matter who she buys for.

Therefore, he still paid equal attention to his mother Zhu Mei's words, and while walking forward on tiptoes, he muttered something in a low voice.

"Hey, old lady, Anhong took a day off from school today just to make this trip. I even bought you two bottles of wine. It's so obvious that you love Junzi, haha..."

Yao Weifang knew her grandma's temper, but she wasn't angry at all. She laughed at the end.

The group of people rushed to the new house at the east end of the village first.

After Yao Weijun took his two nephews to the agency, he asked them to buy whatever they liked. In the end, with great excitement on their faces, the two little guys each chose a lot of food and fun. .

Yao Weijun saw some cans on the shelves and bought them all.

In the afternoon, when Xiaohua and the others came back from school, there were five children at home. Let them eat freely at that time, so as to avoid the trouble of one and the other.

By the time the three of them got home, the smell of cooking was already wafting from the dining room.

After Yao Weijun put the bacon, dried tofu and other cooked food he bought into the dining shed, he went to the main room to drink tea.

It was a rare day of leisure today, and he felt relaxed.

After lunch, the family returned to the old house, transported all the items for his wedding, and continued busy preparations for the new house.

Yao Weijun had nothing to do. He took a nap after dinner and woke up at about four o'clock in the afternoon.

He went to the south courtyard to find his sister-in-law and Chuntao, and told them that they were getting married the day after tomorrow. The speculation work would end early today, and then they would stop for two days until the wedding was completed before starting work.

Chuntao, Uncle Qixue and Aunt Qiuhe naturally had no objection to the boss's words, so after packing up the last batch of roasted and cooled peanuts and melon seeds, they went home together.

"Junzi, is it okay for those friends you left outside to sit at the same table the day after tomorrow? They don't have anything to say to each other, right? If you do, tell me in advance. Also, give me an estimate of how many people there are."

In the main room, Yao Xiangui arranged the banquet seats for the day after tomorrow on red paper and asked Yao Weijun who walked in.He didn't know Yao Weijun's friends well, and he was worried that if there were any conflicts between them, then arranging them at the same table would make the host seem careless.

"It's okay to sit together. In fact, there are probably only three of us who can come if we have time. You just need to arrange them together."

Yao Weijun said casually.

"Don't leave yet. Come, I'll discuss it with you." His father, Yao Xiangui, saw him walking around in the room before going out. He waved quickly, with a solemn look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Yao Weijun was curious.

Yao Xiangui waited for him to approach and asked seriously: "Look...do you want to invite Director Xiao from the commune? Although according to etiquette, we have no relatives or favors, but after all, you are the leader. If we start talking later and people blame you, then you will be passive."

When Yao Xiangui said this, he changed the subject, "But, as it involves gifts... I'm worried that people will be offended and think that we are the ones who cast a net and go there just for the gift money, so it's up to you to do it yourself." Come up with an idea and let me know as soon as possible."

Yao Weijun heard this and sat on the chair next to him. He had already thought about what his father said. He had his own plans on whether he should give Director Xiao a message when he got married.

In this era, weddings and banquets, although in the eyes of later generations, the gift money was not much at all, it was not that small at the time.

Generally, those who actually give money are not much. If you have a normal relationship, they will give you an enamel basin, a thermos bottle, and a few packs of snacks.

Therefore, you cannot cast a wide net when treating guests to weddings. It is appropriate to base your invitation on the actual relationship.

Xu Wenyuan, Zhou Liqiang and You Damin must be invited. This has been agreed before, but Yao Weijun does not intend to notify people like Fatty Lin, Ge Huaiqing, or even Lao Dai and Lao Zhai.

Regarding Director Xiao, Yao Weijun thought about it and felt that he should still be invited.

Regardless of whether the other party comes or not, you should invite her. At least let the other party feel that she is in your heart for important matters.

"I'll go to the county town with Xiunan tomorrow, and I'll go see Director Xiao on the way back. It's still up to date whether I'll come or not. We still have to give out the wedding candies."

Yao Weijun explained to his father with a smile.

"Okay, go and be polite to the leader!" Yao Xiangui nodded happily and continued to arrange the seats for the banquet.

The afternoon passed quickly. After dinner in the evening, the whole family drank tea and talked until very late, and then they went to rest.

The next morning, Yao Weijun rode his motorcycle to the village to pick up Yu Xiunan under the watch of his whole family.

The two rushed to the county seat and spent the whole morning buying wedding clothes, tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea, and daily necessities, including a brand new radio and sewing machine.

The so-called three turns and one ring refers to bicycles, sewing machines, watches and radios. They both have bicycles now, and even Yao Weijun rides a motorcycle, so there is no need to buy a car.

There are too many things to buy in the city this time, and the motorcycle cannot carry them.

After making an agreement with the store, Yao Weijun took Yu Xiunan to buy wine and food and went to Xu Wenyuan's third aunt's house for dinner at noon.

When Yu Xiunan came to the county for training, thanks to the accommodation provided by Xu Wenyuan's third aunt, the old lady couldn't help but be overjoyed to see the two of them again, and happily sent her wedding blessing.

Xu Wenyuan and his wife were also called over by Yao Weijun, and they had a lively lunch at noon.

In the afternoon, Yao Weijun asked Xu Wenyuan to use a tricycle to load all the things he had bought at the store, and brought them back to Jiachang Village, while he continued to stroll around the county town with Yu Xiunan.

Originally, Yao Weijun planned to buy two imported watches, such as Plum Blossom Ingener, but after wandering around for a long time, several stores in the county found that they were out of stock. In the end, he chose two Shanghai mechanical watches, one for each of Yu Xiunan, and both of them. Weared on the wrist.

"Weijun, do you want to bring the money you left me with me tonight, or bring it with you tomorrow?"

After walking out of the store, Yu Xiunan happily rubbed the brand new watch on her wrist and asked in a low voice.

"It's up to you, whatever is convenient for you. Tomorrow you will be mine. It doesn't matter if you keep the money in the future."

Yao Weijun was in a happy mood and couldn't help but speak boldly.

"Come on again, these are people who are getting married soon. Can you take the occasion into account when you speak?!"

Yu Xiunan scolded in a low voice in embarrassment.

"Then... when it's just the two of us, can I just let me do it?"

Yao Weijun had a strange smile on his face, leaned close to her ear and asked.

"..." After hearing this, Yu Xiunan immediately covered her face and subconsciously took a step back. After calming down for a while, she suddenly glared at Yao Weijun and said, "What a beautiful idea! I am not a vegetarian!"

"Then you want to eat..." Yao Weijun became interested. He originally wanted to say dirty words out of habit, but in the middle of the sentence, he suddenly saw the stubborn virgin shy look on Yu Xiunan's pretty face and couldn't help but stop talking.
