Transmigrating to the 70’s: The Military Wife As A Farmer

  Chapter 294 I'm Here to Pick You Up

On the 30th day of the new year, Han Mingxiu woke up early in the morning, took a small lock and Xiaoying with them, and posted couplets and money at home.

Their parents in this life have been dead for three years, and the filial piety period has passed. The family can post couplets and hanging money. After posting the hanging stickers and couplets, a small family that was originally quite dilapidated suddenly became beaming. Full of festive flavor.

  Han Mingcui also got up early in the morning and wrapped her favorite sauerkraut and pork dumplings for her sister. This is the last year that my sister has spent at home, and she has to show her a good year and tell her to have a good year.

In addition to my sister’s favorite pickled cabbage dumplings with oily stuffing, she also cooked four dishes, one smoked rabbit meat, (this smoked rabbit meat is still the rabbit Gao Guangbin got in the mountains two days ago, and gave them two Only), cut a plate of crystal skin jelly, steamed a chicken cake, fried a plate of braised pork belly.

During the meal, Han Mingcui said to her sister in a charming manner: "Xiu'er, you are going to get married tomorrow. After the marriage is over, you have to get along well with Jianfeng and his uncle and aunt. They are elders. Don’t be honest with others if it’s shallow..."

  Han Mingxiu heard the elder sister’s remarks, and suddenly the corners of her mouth twitched, thinking in her heart: You respect your elders and respect your in-laws, but what happened in the end? It's not that there is no place for people to bully.

  It’s enough to teach her this theory!

  Han Mingxiu’s attitude towards filial piety to his in-laws or his elders has always been clear, and that is how he treats him.

  If she is the kind of noble, kind and generous old man, she will abide by her junior status and respect her. But if she is the kind of old man who is more respectful and crooked, she won't respect it!

The eldest sister saw that she lowered her head and did not speak. She thought she had listened to what she said. She continued: "When a girl gets married, her family usually prepares a few boxes as a dowry, but our parents are gone, so I don’t have a place to talk. Go to the box, you can take the fifty dollars, as it is the dowry that the sister gave you."

  Han Mingcui took out fifty yuan from his pocket and put it on the kang quilt beside Han Mingxiu.

  She has saved up this money for several months. Don't look at her carefully in weekdays, she is reluctant to spend a penny, but for her younger sister, she is willing to spend everything.

Because the younger sister is not only her relative, but also her benefactor. If she didn’t have a younger sister, she wouldn’t have the job she has now. Maybe she would still be living in Lao Wang’s house. In that case, she might be so miserable. Even if Xiaomeizi is in the world now, I'm talking about it!

Han Mingxiu saw that the eldest sister actually gave her a dowry of fifty yuan, knowing that the eldest sister gave her everything, and said hurriedly: "Sister, I don’t need money, the old Huo’s family gave me one hundred dollars a few days ago. My eldest aunt also gave me sixty-six, and Huo Jianfeng usually mailed me. I have more than 200 yuan now. You can keep this money for yourself. The child has grown up day by day, and you will use it later. There is too much money to go, you can keep it for yourself."

   "It's okay, anyway, I have a job, and I can save more if I don't have money. You will marry this time in your life, so let my sister do something to you." Seeing that she refused, Han Mingcui insisted on persuading her to accept it.

  Han Mingxiu really doesn’t want it. She will leave here soon. The eldest sister is pulling several children with a woman. If there is no money by her side, what if there is something wrong with her? There is no one who can help me, and it would be better if I had some money. If you don't have any money, something will happen, and you won't have to wait for long eyes.

  So, she is determined not to collect the money.

She thought for a while and said: "Why don't you leave the rest of the meat at home, and you can leave the rest of the meat as a dowry for me. If you still feel that there is less, then leave the eggs at home. Give me the rest of what you eat. The meat and eggs add up to fifty yuan."

  The pork leftover from work at the uncle’s house yesterday, she left 30 catties for her uncle, and the rest was taken back, totaling more than 120 catties. Pork has now risen to 40 cents a catty, and these meats are worth almost fifty yuan. Coupled with the eggs, duck and goose eggs at home, fifty yuan is more than enough.

  Han Mingcui found it strange to hear that she was going to use these meats as a dowry, but considering the value of these meats and eggs, which was about fifty yuan, she didn't take it seriously.

  Since the younger sister wants meat and eggs as a dowry, let her go. The younger sister is delicious. If the food in the old Huo’s family is not good, bring some more meat over, can you cheer her up, right?

  In fact, Han Mingxiu wanted these meat and eggs just in case. She was afraid that Huo Jianfeng's aunt would have some moths temporarily, and then the banquet would be shabby. That Jianfeng had no face in front of the folks, and their wedding would not be beautiful.

  So, bring some meat and eggs, just in case.

  After eating breakfast, she asked Xiaoying to help her burn the fire, and started to cook the meat one by one. I also relied on a lot of oily shuttles, boiled two large pots of jelly with the remaining pig skin, and boiled the eggs...

  This is a big project. For a hundred catties of meat, she took two-thirds of it, and it took several pots to finish it. That one-third relies on oil shuttles, plus boiled eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, and have been busy from morning to night...

  **

  The next day is the first day of the new year, and it is also the day when Han Mingxiu officially gets married.

  At four o'clock in the morning, Han Mingcui called Han Mingxiu out of the bed, and after helping her to dress her up neatly, he cooked her a pot of dumplings to make her full, and waited for Huo Jianfeng to pick her up.

  People who came to see off their relatives also arrived one after another. There were a couple of captains, a couple of women directors, a production team accountant, as well as several respectable elderly people in the village, as well as Han Mingxiu’s old uncle’s family, the second aunt’s family...

Although she usually doesn't move close to her old uncle and second aunt at all, she still doesn't get as stinky as her second uncle and old aunt, so it makes sense to let the old uncle and second aunt participate in her good day of marriage of.

  After all, they are relatives. They are too stiff and not good-looking. Just keep a big face and don’t ask others to read jokes.

  In addition, the father and daughter Gao Guangbin of Zhang Lao Batun'er also came, and they were invited by Han Mingxiu.

  Han Mingxiu has always hoped that her eldest sister can go one step further with Gao Guangbin, so that she doesn’t have to worry about her eldest sister after she gets married. Otherwise, the eldest sister’s temperament is so soft, she is really afraid that the eldest sister will be bullied when she is not at home. If the eldest sister can form a family with Gao Guangbin, Gao Guangbin can protect her and several children from being bullied...

   At half past seven, Huo Jianfeng came to Sun Aotun in a carriage. The carriage belongs to their Xiaodongshan production team, and the production team captain specially approved him to pick up the bride.

  In addition, Wang Wenyuan also borrowed a large carriage from the Sijiawazi production team to follow. Of the two carriages, one was for the bride and groom, and the other was for the family (guests). The two large carriages entered Sun Aotun magnificently and immediately caused the children who were running wildly outside. note.

  Sun Aotun’s children saw the strange carriage entering the village with a big red flower hanging on the horse’s neck, and they knew that they were here to pick up the bride. Then she rushed to the front of the carriage and went to Han Mingxiu's house to report the news.

  Han Mingcuier heard that Huo Jianfeng had arrived, and hurriedly took out a red scarf prepared in advance and put it over Han Mingxiu's head as a hijab.

  After Huo Jianfeng entered the house, he saw the charming bride under the red scarf.

  Today, Han Mingxiu wore the wine-red cotton-padded jacket and light green cotton trousers that Sister He Li bought for her. It looks better and more watery than on the 29th day.

  Huo Jianfeng walked to her, lowered his head and smiled and said: "Xiu'er, I'm here to pick you up."

  Han Mingxiu laughed when she heard it. Before she could answer, Sun Aotun’s villagers all cried out jokingly: “Xiu’er, you can’t just nod like that. Our Sun Aotun girl is not so easy to marry.”

   "Xiu'er is the best girl in our village, you want to marry back easily, it's not that easy!"

  Huo Jianfeng knew what they were making and waved to the chaos, and the chaos put on a small basket covered with towels.

  Huo Jianfeng tore off the towel from the small basket, which was full of candy peanuts and melon seeds. He scattered the basket of things on the kang and said loudly, "I invite you all to eat wedding candy!"

  At this time, all the villagers in the house rushed to grab the wedding candy, peanuts and melon seeds.

  Wang Wenyuan also stepped forward and handed a small box to Huo Jianfeng. Huo Jianfeng opened the box, which was full of filter cigarettes. Huo Jianfeng scattered these cigarettes on the kang, which caused the men to swarm up to grab the cigarettes, which was very lively.

  The villagers answered and the fire finally agreed to let Han Mingxiu and Huo Jianfeng go.

  Han Mingcui put the new quilt made by their sisters on the carriage. Wang Wenyuan had already laid an old quilt on the carriage, so that their new quilt would not stick to the carriage.
