With the spiritual spring space, rebirth in the red era

Many guests came to Liu Jianqiang's house. The father and son stood at the door to greet the guests. When the big truck arrived, they were surrounded by people.

Xue Ming opened the car door and helped his mother and daughter-in-law get out of the car.

Liu Yue'e prepared fifty pounds of wheat and five pounds of sesame seeds for her eldest nephew, and also gave her new wife a six-dollar red envelope.

"His sister-in-law still loves the child. Look how good this wheat is." Liu Dalong, the brigade party secretary, said while holding the wheat.

The villagers came to watch the wheat and sesame seeds one after another, with envy on their faces. My aunt quickly brought the grain into the house.

Xue Ming took out cigarettes and distributed them to the cadres of Liu Village Brigade. A group of old men sat in the yard chatting.

"Da Mingzi, I originally planned to send a brigade carriage to marry Hongwei, but now I think the big truck is more respectable." Party Secretary Liu Dalong chuckled.

"No problem." Xue Ming agreed. The more he thought about it, the more ridiculous he felt. He never thought that a big truck could also be used as a wedding car for the bride.

At ten o'clock at noon, we drove a truck to take the groom to the county town. Couplets were also posted at the bride's house, and a large group of relatives and friends were waiting for the groom to welcome him.

"Oh my God, this is a big truck." An elderly woman leaned on a cane and stared with wide eyes.

"Meiya's man works as a transporter in the provincial capital. His cousin is the director of the provincial capital's transportation department. Of course he can drive big trucks here."

"Whether his cousin is married or not, I also want to get married in a big truck." A yellow-flowered girl said with envy on her face.

Everyone was talking a lot. Xue Ming got out of the car and set off firecrackers outside the Yang family gate. Party secretary Liu Dalong and Liu Hongwei went to the door to pick up the bride.

The yard was filled with laughter and laughter, and relatives and friends from both sides were sitting in the main room bragging to each other.

People who get married in the countryside like to brag, brag about their own famous figures to show their strength, and if there is no famous figure, they will brag about it.

The famous figure of the Yang family was born out of bragging. Liu Dalong couldn't brag about the Yang family, so he got up and went to the yard to move Xue Ming.

Yue Ming didn't hesitate. He went back to the truck to get two cigarettes and went to the main room to continue bragging to the Yang family.

"This third master of the Yang family, I think your body is stronger than that of young people."

"The second uncle looks very kind. Let us have a few thoughtful words later."

"Is this the third aunt or the third sister? She looks so young."

Xue Ming praised the Yang family relatives again. Others gave away cigarettes one by one, but he gave them away pack by pack.

The Yang family laughed from ear to ear and praised Xue Hong for being the director of the provincial transportation department. Look at his courage.

Everyone in the wedding team held their heads high, Director Xue gave them a face.

Liu Hongwei lowered his head and wiped his tears quietly. The cousin of the Xue family was his biological brother, and he would sell his life to his cousin from now on.

The bride Yang Meiya got on the truck wearing a military uniform, and Liu Hongwei also wore a military uniform. Everyone wears green military uniforms these days.

The Yang family did not go to the Liu family to see off guests. These days, every household is not rich, and they don't have to pay for the wedding.

Some families don't even hold a wedding. The groom goes to the brigade to borrow an ox cart and takes the bride home directly. There is no food left to prepare for a wedding.

Xue Ming drove a big truck to his cousin's door. His uncle Liu Jianqiang set off firecrackers around the truck, and his cousin got out of the car with his new wife on his back.

The wedding scene was very lively. The bride and groom came to the bridal chamber and the wedding officially ended.

Relatives and friends left one after another, and Xue Ming had lunch at his uncle's house and prepared to return to the provincial capital.

The eldest aunt told her son and daughter-in-law over and over again, "When you arrive in the provincial capital, you must listen to your cousin. You can do whatever your cousin tells you to do."

Liu Hongwei nodded solemnly, Yang Meiya secretly winked at Liu Hongwei, and the couple agreed to ask her cousin to introduce a job to Meiya.

Liu Jianqiang held Xue Ming's hand tightly, "Son, if Hongwei makes a mistake, he will be beaten and scolded when he deserves it. Don't be soft-hearted."

"Don't worry, uncle, I will take good care of them." Xue Ming would not beat or scold his cousin casually, nor was he in the mood to take care of them.

Liu Yue'e and Liu Jia said goodbye reluctantly. The cadres of Liu Village Brigade came to see off the car, and Gao Laoba, the party secretary of Zhao Village Brigade, also came.

Xue Ming opened a pack of Double Happiness cigarettes and gave them to them, "Uncle Eighth, Uncle Dalong, please remember our agreement."

"Don't worry, kid, I keep my word."

"I, Liu Dalong, have always spit on me and nailed me every time, so don't worry."

Gao Laoba felt that the agreement was impossible. Life in the provincial capital was so wonderful. How could the Xue family return to the countryside and suffer?

Xue Ming started the truck and waved goodbye. Sitting in the cab were his wife Zhao Xue and his cousin's wife Yang Meiya.

Yang Meiya has resigned from Guangming County Match Factory. She wants to settle down with her husband in the provincial capital.

After arriving in the provincial capital two days later, life in the Xue family returned to normal. Three younger siblings went to school, the rest went to work, and Yang Meiya stayed at home as a housewife.

She got up early in the morning to make breakfast, and started cleaning after everyone left for work. The table was wiped spotless, and the yard was tidy.

After cleaning the yard and doing laundry, she washed the whole family’s clothes.

One time, Xue Ming was embarrassed when he washed Xue Ming's underwear. From then on, Xue Ming threw all the underwear he changed into and washed them himself.

When her family didn't come back for lunch, Yang Meiya would cook a bowl of rice porridge regardless of how much she ate. Once when Xue Ming came home at noon, he found her eating rice porridge and making steamed buns.

The rice porridge was very thin and there probably weren't even a few grains of rice in it, and the steamed buns were soaked into batter by her.

Xue Ming frowned and said, "There is no shortage of food and vegetables at home. You can eat whatever you want."

"Okay cousin." Yang Meiya nodded with a smile.

In the days to come, her lunch would still be steamed buns soaked in rice soup and not willing to stir-fry, but the rice soup was thicker than before.

Later, Zhao Xue discovered it again, and Zhao Xue told Xue Ming. Xue Ming shook his head and did not comment.

In the afternoon, the housework was almost done. Yang Meiya couldn't bear to be idle and cleaned the toilet again. In the evening, she cooked dinner for the whole family.

She woke up earlier than a chicken and went to bed later than a dog. Xue's family was full of praise for her, and they lived together like this until the end of 1965.

In the golden autumn of October, one night Xue Ming and his wife were chatting in bed.

"Husband, yesterday my cousin told me that he wanted to take Meiya to rent a house outside." Zhao Xue said.

"Why? Why are you leaving?" Xue Ming sat up and turned on the light.

"Meiya is pregnant. She can no longer do housework for us. She doesn't want to stay and have nothing to do." Zhao Xue suddenly looked envious.

The fortune teller said she would be pregnant this year, but it was already March and there was still no movement in her belly.

The couple had been married for several years but could not give birth to a child. For this reason, they went to the capital for a physical check-up. Both of them had no physical problems but were not pregnant.

Xue Ming thought it was very fantasy, so Zhao Xue could only often take her husband to the Guanyin Temple to burn incense, worship Buddha, and go to fortune tellers to tell fortunes.

"Then let them move out and I will find a way to arrange a job for Meiya." Xue Ming said, his cousin's wife is hardworking and honest and deserves a job.

"Husband, you have been worried after the Chinese New Year. Can you tell me why?" Zhao Xue gently held her husband's hand.

"I'm fine, don't think too much." Xue Ming turned off the light and hugged his wife to sleep.
