Hello, 1983

"Come back, come back, set off firecrackers!"

Watching the cycling team go and return, he shouted loudly.

It was originally arranged for Datou and Erbiao to light firecrackers, but as a result, several cigarettes were poked on them together.

These days, when you hang small firecrackers, you have to take them apart and put them one by one. Such a big hanging firecracker is so fun to put on, who doesn't want to grab it?

In the end, I don't know who ignited it, and there was a crackling sound, and after the child was released, he grabbed it.

The children were all looking for the ones that didn't sound in the debris of the firecrackers, and then broke them apart to reveal the gunpowder inside, and kept them for playing with flowers at night.

Gao Wenxue held Liu Jinfeng in his arms and entered the door step by step.

Don't look at him thin, like a weak scholar, but at this moment, let alone hold Liu Jinfeng's shapely figure, even Yang Guifei would still carry him.

The young people on both sides, the grains prepared in their pockets finally came in handy, and they began to sprinkle.

In the grains, there are also colored paper cut into pieces, so they are swaying, just like the flowers are scattered by the goddess.

There are also naughty ones, grabbing the grains and pulling hard, hitting them in the face, and it hurts a bit.

However, generally do not beat the bride, mainly the bridesmaids followed.

He rushed into the house with Liu Jinfeng in his arms, and put the bride on the kang to sit down, Gao Wenxue breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, he was really afraid that those half-sized boys would be heavy, and he kept Liu Jinfeng tightly in his arms.

According to local customs, the longer the bride sits on the kang, the luckier the family will be.

Therefore, before boarding the sedan chair, the maiden's mother usually tells her daughter to drink less water and eat less, and usually eat two egg pads, because eggs are more resistant to hunger.

Of course, there are also people who can't help but eat too much. As a result, after sitting on the kang for a while, they have to go to the toilet. If not, they will be scorned by the husband's family.

As for Liu Jinfeng and Gao Wenxue's new house, in fact, the house's original large kang was divided into two with a curtain in the middle.

But now I don't pay much attention to sitting for blessings. I just sit for a while symbolically. Under the auspices of Da Zhangluo and the captain's aunt, a couple of newlyweds began to worship heaven and earth.

It is said that it is to worship the heaven and earth. According to the rules of the past few years, the first person to worship is the statue of the chairman on the cover of the cabinet.

Then, bowed to Liu Shikui, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, and Lin Zhi, who was sitting next to him.

"Father, milk, I wish you a long and healthy life!"

"Mom, from now on, I will be your son!"

Gao Wenxue respectfully salutes the elders, this is absolutely true, half a aunt.

Especially in his current situation, because of this decision, he doesn't have any relatives around him, so he has basically cut off contact.

Therefore, he regards this place as his own home and Lin Zhi as his own mother.

"Eh!"

Lin Zhi was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, she just looked at her daughter and son-in-law and smiled.

It was Lin Qingshan who came over and patted her mother's pocket. Lin Zhi took out a red envelope from her pocket and happily stuffed it to Gao Wenwen.

According to local customs, this is called change money.

Inside the room, there was a burst of cheers, and at this point, the simple yet tender wedding ceremony officially ended.

Under the witness of the villagers, Liu Jinfeng and Gao Wenxue finally became an official husband and wife.

As for whether to get a marriage certificate or not, the rural people don't pay much attention to it. With the witnesses of the old and young men in the village, it is considered a couple.

However, Gao Wenxue and Liu Jinfeng, two young people in the new era, are still relatively law-abiding. They have long gone to the county to take their wedding photos, and then got their certificates in the commune.

Looking at this beaming scene, Liu Qingshan still had a little regret in his heart: it would be nice if there was a camera.

But in this era, except for state-run photo studios, high-end products such as cameras cannot be seen at all.

With the loud shout of Da Zhangluo, the pots and pans moved in unison, and amidst the clanging sound, the banquet that everyone was looking forward to the most was finally organized.

People also got up one after another and began to stroll to the captain Zhang Guofu's house in the front yard.

On the kang of his house, a kang table has long been placed. The old book is sitting cross-legged in the kang, with a big red piece of paper in front of him. This is the ledger, the official name is the gift account.

When rural people get married, the rituals are relatively transparent. Usually, the best handwriting person in the village writes the gift account.

There was also a person sitting next to him holding a pocket in his arms, who was specially responsible for receiving gift money.

One collects money and the other keeps accounts, which is equivalent to the roles of the unit's accountant and cash clerk.

There was also a plate of loose cigarettes on the square table, and an empty plate containing candy cubes that had long been robbed by the little boys.

The people who came to the ceremony smoked a cigarette, and then took out one or several banknotes from their pockets, most of which were in one piece, with the female tractor driver driving the tractor on the front.

"Da Zhangluo, three congratulations!"

It was the old accountant in the village who was in charge of the money. With a shout, the old party secretary started writing.

"Boss, two dollars!"

"Zhang pole, one piece!"

"Uncle kidnapper, Wu Yuan!"

Five yuan is a big gift.

"Shan Xingniang, Wu Yuan!"

The old accountant charged five yuan, and the old party secretary looked up at the young woman who was pulling Shan Xing: "Shan Xing's mother, what's your big name?"

People in the village rarely call their official names. As a result, they forgot their official names when they called.

"Qian Yuzhen."

Today's Shan Xingniang is obviously in a normal state. At the age of twenty-five or six years old, she has delicate features and looks very attractive.

The clothes are also very clean, which can also be seen from Shan Xing.

Because this little girl, like Liu Qingshan's fourth sister, has never had any lice in her hair, nor has she ever had white flowers.

The so-called gnats are lice eggs, which are white and oval in shape.

At that time, the sanitation conditions in rural areas were poor, and there were few changes of clothes, so many children, especially girls with long hair, if they didn't wash their hair frequently, the white flowers on their heads were all scorpions, which made their scalp tingling.

The old party secretary nodded: "Remember, Yuzhen, lead Shan Xing to the seat."

The people in the village still take good care of this hard-working educated youth. Even a lazy guy like Zhang Ganzi once helped to carry water.

However, it is hard to say whether he has other thoughts.

As a result, Zhang Ganzi was scolded by the old party secretary, kicked a few times, and never dared to go again.

There are less than 30 households in total, and it doesn't take long to write a gift account. I compare the account with the collected money.

Beep beep! There was a sound of a car horn coming from the back of the room, and immediately, the little dolls in the room all ran out.

These days, in a small mountain village like Jiapigou, you may not see a single motor vehicle all year round.

The old party secretary also hurried out to greet him, and said to the kidnapper grandfather next to him, "Brother kidnapper, today is the Army Founding Day. It must be the Ministry of People's Armed Forces who came to see you, an old fighting hero."

The kidnapper's grandfather limped: "I only come during the Chinese New Year. Could it be that the regulations have been changed this year?"

"It's possible, now the newspapers talk about reform every day."

The old secretary replied.

Looking outside, sure enough, there was an army green jeep, commonly known as the 212, parked on the road.

A group of kids had already surrounded the jeeps, shouting loudly: "Four tigers, you are not allowed to stab with small sticks, the car shed is made of canvas, if you poke a hole, I will put it on you!"

The kids all took a few steps back in fright, and then the car door opened, and several people got out of the car one after another.

"It's not from the Ministry of Human Forces." Grandpa Kidnapper judged when he saw the clothes of these people.

"It's Secretary Sun of the commune." The old party secretary hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and went up to shake hands: "Secretary Sun is here, welcome!"

The secretary Sun Hongtao was in his 40s, with rough and dark skin, wearing a blue cloth shirt with his arms open, revealing a vest that had been washed white inside. If he wore a straw hat, he would have nothing to do with the villagers in Jiapigou too big a difference.

He stretched out his rough hands, grabbed the old party secretary's hand and shook it: "Old Zhang, your village is very lively, who's holding a wedding?"

Then, he introduced a young man beside him with half sleeves to the old party secretary: "This is the county magistrate of our county."

Mayor! This is the largest cadre who has ever come to Jiapigou, and the villagers also exclaimed in a low voice.

"Zheng County Magistrate, hello hello."

The old party secretary and the captain hurried up to shake hands, and for a while, they were a little helpless. After all, the level they usually contacted was the level of the commune cadres.

The two also sighed in their hearts: They are really young and promising. Look at people, so young, they seem to be less than 30 years old, so they are the county magistrates.

"My surname is Zheng, and I'm actually the deputy county magistrate."

It is not the first time that Magistrate Zheng has been misunderstood, so he explained with a smile and extended his hand.

He was wearing white half-sleeves with a belt tied around his waist. His trousers were firmer, with straight trousers. He wore a pair of leather sandals with toe caps on his feet. At first glance, he was a cadre.

The hair is a capable and flat head, and the facial features are sharp and angular. When he smiles, it also gives people a feeling of spring breeze, which immediately relieved the tension in the hearts of the old party secretary and captain Zhang.

"Zheng County Magistrate, welcome to our Jiapigou to guide our work."

The old party secretary also hurriedly shook hands, while Captain Zhang reported to Secretary Sun of the commune, "It's Liu Jinfeng from the village and Gao Wenxue, an educated youth, who are getting married today, and I invite the villagers to be happy."

Secretary Sun thought for a while, and then asked, "Old Liu's family, is it Liu Qingshan's family?"

The commune cadres at this time spent most of the year running in the villages, so they were quite familiar with the situation.

In Jiapigou, the surname Zhang is a big family, and there are only two or three other surnames.

Seeing the captain nodding, Secretary Sun immediately grinned: "Haha, that's just right, Magistrate Zheng and I, let's ask for a wedding wine too!"

These words made people stunned.

Hey, and my family business!

Liu Qingshan, who was in the crowd, couldn't squint this time either, so he stood up and extended his hand generously.

"Hello, Magistrate Zheng, hello Secretary Sun, I'm Liu Qingshan. Today, you two leaders can attend the wedding of my sister and brother-in-law during their busy schedules. I represent the whole family, as well as the elders and villagers in Jiapigou. , a warm welcome!"

Two eyes shot over together, and then Secretary Sun and Magistrate Zheng nodded slightly: What a young guy!

From the simple way of dealing with people, it can be seen that this young man is not stage fright at all, and his speech is polite and thoughtful.

Especially a pair of eyes, clear and bright, and the timid eyes around them, in sharp contrast.

Magistrate Zheng's eyes also showed appreciation, and the smile on his face became more cordial: "Since we are here to attend the wedding, of course we have to do as the locals do. We all have to be courteous here, right?"

Seeing that the old party secretary and the captain nodded blankly, Magistrate Zheng continued: "Well, on behalf of the county government, I will take out 100 yuan."

Secretary Sun was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses: Haha, this new Magistrate Zheng Hongqi is quite funny.

So I followed suit: "Then I will also make a share, but the commune is not as good as the county, so I will pay fifty yuan."
