The educated youth was reborn and wanted to disappear, but he was locked into a military marriage.

Lu Mingzheng and several brigade cadres had also just sat down. When they saw her coming, they got up to help go over to prepare food.

Huang Meihua laughed: "I can't tell that Lu Zhiqing can be so attentive sometimes."

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "The rice cooked by Lu Mingzheng is more delicious."

Huang Meihua was originally teasing her, but when she saw her openness, she couldn't help but laugh: "Why don't you just tweak it a little bit?"

Zhu Xiaomin shook his head: "Wouldn't that make you laugh even more?"

He Caifeng asked directly: "Zhu Zhiqing, have you two confirmed their relationship?"

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "I'm thinking about it."

After listening to everyone talking and laughing for a while, Gu Mancang asked: "Zhu Zhiqing, you said you talked about hawthorn at noon, but I called everyone over."

"Yes!" Zhu Xiaomin nodded and saw that Lu Mingzheng and Huang Xiaojuan had already brought the rice. Then he took out a glass bottle from the cloth bag, opened the box and pushed it in front of him and said, "Secretary, try this, and everyone should try it too. "

Gu Mancang took a look and saw that it was an ordinary can bottle. It contained some dark red paste, which was similar in color to hawthorn. He asked doubtfully: "What?" He picked up some with his chopsticks and sipped it in his mouth to taste. I just felt that the texture of this thing was delicate, sour and sweet, with the sweet aroma of hawthorn, so I immediately asked, "Is it made of hawthorn?"

Zhu Xiaomin nodded: "Yeah, hawthorn sauce made from hawthorn." Pointing to the steamed buns in front of him, "Try it on the steamed buns." He then explained, "The steamed buns are sweeter, so it will feel better if you put it on the white flour steamed buns."

Gu Mancang tasted it as she asked, and without saying a word, he pushed the bottle to Xia Dongliang next to him.

Xia Dongliang took a bite and then recommended it to Huang Meihua.

Huang Meihua also stretched out her chopsticks to pick some, wiped the steamed buns with a taste, and nodded: "This tastes good." She picked a little more, and then gave it to Huang Xiaojuan.

Huang Xiaojuan took a bite and was a little surprised: "My Xiaoyu will definitely like this taste."

Xia Chunhua also took a bite and nodded: "Yeah, it's delicious. Sister Xiaomin, how did you make it?"

Zhu Xiaomin explained: “It’s just boiling hawthorn and grinding it into a puree, adding rock sugar to it and then boiling it.”

This was not the first time Miao Shiwen ate it. He just smiled, picked up the chopsticks, and pushed it to He Caifeng.

Xia Dongliang looked at a few people and said, "I guess only little girls will like it."

Who says only little girls like it?

Zhu Xiaomin glanced at Lu Mingzheng and saw that he was eating seriously. She couldn't help but laugh, and said to Gu Mancang: "Chen Xudong will deliver eggs the day after tomorrow. I will take two bottles with me to the county and let Secretary Yan try it."

"Is it sold in the county?" Huang Meihua asked, thinking about it and nodding, "Well, there are more white noodles in the city than we do, but buying vegetables is expensive, maybe it's really okay."

Xia Chunhua nodded immediately: "Try it!"

Gu Mancang asked: "If it works, can we do it?"

Zhu Xiaomin said: "We will discuss this with Secretary Yan when the time comes. In fact, it is not difficult for us to do it, but we need to think about this container. We cannot use used cans and bottles like me."

Gu Mancang asked, what is it for?

Zhu Xiaomin thought about it: "If it is used a lot, it is best to customize a batch of bottles. I will ask Secretary Yan first what he means."

Xia Dongliang frowned: "Customized bottle? How much does it cost? Don't even recover the cost if you turn around."

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "So we need to discuss with the county. We are looking for sales in Hawthorn. Of course we can't do it if we can't recover the cost."

Gu Mancang nodded: "Then you go and talk."

After the first time he talked about the sales of eggs, he knew that Zhu Xiaomin was far better than him in this aspect, so he no longer worried about it.

Zhu Xiaomin smiled and nodded. Seeing that the grown men no longer took off their chopsticks, they smiled and pulled her back and pushed her in front of Xia Chunhua.

This girl has picked it up several times in a while.

After dinner, Lu Mingzheng followed him out. Miao Shiwen smiled, took the book and went to the next door, leaving the place for the two of them.

Zhu Xiaomin was helpless: "It's not that big of a deal, we won't do anything."

Lu Mingzheng looked at her and smiled, then shook his head after a while: "The sales of this hawthorn sauce should not be easy to open."

Let’s not talk about hawthorn and sugar, just talking about glass bottles, the cost is not low, and the people in the city are not rich.

Zhu Xiaomin smiled: "I'm just talking about glass bottles, and I don't have to use them."

No need for you to say anything?

Lu Mingzheng sometimes felt that this girl's mind was so wild that he really couldn't fathom it.

Zhu Xiaomin didn't explain, threw him a book, and continued to sort out the materials.

Lu Mingzheng sat further away, holding the book but not opening it, and his eyes fell on her unconsciously.

At this time, the sunlight outside the window was shining in, and some fell on her shoulders. The light and shadow made her profile softer.

In his mind, he thought about what he said in the morning again. He didn't quite understand that for so many years, she was just a squeamish little girl who didn't know the sufferings of the world, but now she has become independent and strong, even regarding marriage.

During this period, apart from the night she spent with him in the ranger's hut, he really couldn't think of anything else that had happened to her.

It's not like she broke up with Nie Yifei. It was simply because she couldn't wait to dump Nie Yifei.

After thinking for a while, Lu Mingzheng suddenly shouted: "Xiaomin."

"Huh?" Zhu Xiaomin responded, her mind still on the materials in her hands and she didn't look back.

Lu Mingzheng moved his chair over and watched her write for a while before saying, "I have one more question about what I said this morning."

"What?" At this moment, Zhu Xiaomin's mind was taken away from the material and she looked back at him.

Lu Mingzheng counted for her: "You have talked about your return to the city, your work, and... my family's problems, but have you forgotten that there is also the problem of our marriage."

"What about our marriage?" Zhu Xiaomin asked back.

Lu Mingzheng looked at her: "Yes, you don't want my family to interfere in your life, what about...the marriage?"

"Will they object if we get married?" Zhu Xiaomin asked.

Lu Mingzheng shook his head: "That's not possible, but when we get married, they have to participate, right?"

Zhu Xiaomin thought for a while: "It's fairest to do it here. If you decide, we will choose a date. You tell your family, and I will tell my family that our wedding should be simple and just have a drink at the educated youth spot."

Lu Mingzheng asked: "You mean to let them come here?"

Zhu Xiaomin spread his hands: "The choice is up to them whether they come or not, but here is the environment we are all familiar with. We have common friends, so we always have to invite everyone to a wedding drink."

In this era, transportation is not convenient, communications are not developed, and the educated youths come from different cities. Many educated youths get married in this way. They get a certificate and hold a simple wedding in the countryside.

Therefore, her proposal is not surprising. The only difference is that Lu Mingzheng has returned to the city.
