Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

After leaving He Yuzhu's house, Zhong Shan returned home. Little Song Yi was sitting obediently on the kang, eating an apple.

Seeing Zhong Shan enter the room, Xiao Songyi said, "Uncle-in-law, you're back!"

Song Lili also said: "Brother Zhongshan, have you decided everything?"

Zhong Shan rubbed little Song Yi's head, and then said: "It's settled, just prepare to marry me with peace of mind!"

After hearing what Zhong Shan said, Song Lili was still a little shy, but she had already gotten used to it. They were both going to get married, so they had to adapt!

After dinner at Zhongshan's house in the evening, he sent the two back to the Song family.

The three-day holiday passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the third day of the Lunar New Year. It was time to go back to work after the holiday.

In the morning, Zhong Shan packed up, took some fruit candies, and went to the street office. He waited at the door for a while. When he saw Song Lili coming, the two of them went into the office together.

After accompanying Song Lili to park the car, the two of them came to the gate together. Uncle Qin was Zhongshan's first friend since he came to the street office. Zhongshan went to give Uncle Qin wedding candy first: "Uncle Qin, Happy New Year! Lili and I have settled the matter. I'm giving you some wedding candy to share in the good fortune!"

Uncle Qin looked at the two of them and said with a hearty smile, "Oh, has the date been set? When is it?"

Uncle Qin usually gets along well with Zhongshan. Last time when Zhongshan and Song Lili were in trouble, Uncle Qin came to their aid. This year during the Chinese New Year, Zhongshan visited Uncle Qin's house again to pay New Year's greetings, so their relationship has become even closer.

"It's the sixth day of the first lunar month, just these two days!" After talking to Uncle Qin, the two of them went into the yard again. When they arrived at the office, Section Chief Sun and Zhang Juan had already arrived.

"Brother Sun, Sister Zhang, Happy New Year. Come and have some candy..." Zhong Shan took out another handful of candy and put it on the desk.

The two also responded

"Xiao Zhong, Happy New Year, Lili!"

"Happy New Year, Xiao Zhong, what is this candy...?"

Zhong Shan and Song Lili stood together and said, "Lili and I have decided on our marriage. We will get married on the sixth day of the first lunar month. Brother Sun and Sister Zhang will do us the honor of visiting you. I look forward to seeing you."

Zhang Juan was pleasantly surprised after hearing this: "Oh, congratulations! I will definitely go to the wedding to have a drink!"

Section Chief Sun also congratulated the two and said, "Congratulations to both of you on your success. I will definitely go on the sixth day of the New Year!"

After chatting in the office for a while, mainly Zhang Juan and Song Lili, they went to Director Li's office and knocked on the door:

"Aunt Li, I'm busy!"

Director Li looked up and saw Zhong Shan and Song Lili: "Xiao Zhong, Lili, what are you doing?"

Zhong Shan took a handful of candy and put it on the table: "I'm here to bring you wedding candy!"

Director Li heard Zhong Shan say this and said, "Oh, have you decided? When is it?"

Before Zhong Shan could speak, Song Lili said, "Aunt Li, on the sixth of this month, we are mainly worried that my eldest brother will not be able to come back after he returns to the army, so we are getting married while everyone is at home."

Director Li also had a big smile on his face: "Oh, it would be good for you two to get married soon. You are both old enough to get married. Did you bring your household registration books?"

Zhong Shan took out the household registration booklet from his pocket: "I have it with me, Aunt Li!"

Song Lili also took them out: "I have them all with me. My mom asked me to pack them up yesterday because she was afraid I would forget them!"

Director Li took the household registration books from the two people and said, "Okay, follow me. Let's go get the certificates first!"

Both of them worked at the street office, so it was convenient for them to get the certificate. Now, marriage certificates are also obtained at the street office. Since it was just the beginning of the new year and there were not many people around, Director Li took the two of them there to get the certificate. After Zhong Shan gave a handful of candies to several colleagues at the registration office, he left the registration office.

After returning to Director Li's office, Director Li took out a bicycle ticket from the drawer under his desk and handed it to Zhong Shan, saying, "Xiao Zhong, I'll give you this bicycle ticket. I see you haven't bought a bicycle yet and I just happen to have one. You can go buy one later."

After Zhongshan got his bicycle ticket, although he did not attach as much importance to bicycles as people do nowadays, otherwise he would not have not bought one for such a long time, but he was about to get married and still needed a bicycle in the future, so he also thanked Director Li:

"Thank you, Aunt Li. I'll go buy the bicycle later."

Director Li: "Go ahead, go ahead. Your department is not busy. Go ahead and buy whatever you want!"

Zhong Shan and Song Lili are still clerks. Although they are married, they can still work together and do not need to separate.

If one of them gets promoted and becomes the direct supervisor of the other, then one of them must leave. However, neither of them is that ambitious, and the current atmosphere is not suitable for climbing too high. Besides, Director Sun of their department is still a long way from retirement, and other departments are not so idle!

Therefore, the two can still work in the same department in the future. They are not superiors and subordinates, and their departments have no financial relationship, so there is no need to avoid suspicion!

After the two returned to the department, Zhong Shan took out his marriage certificate. He didn't dare to look at it outside because he had never seen it before and was quite curious!

"Zhongshan, Song Lili voluntarily married. After examination, it was found to be in compliance with the provisions of the Marriage Law of the People's Republic of China on marriage. This certificate is issued."

Zhang Juan saw the marriage certificate in Zhong Shan's hand and said to them jokingly, "Oh, you two are now legally married!"

The people in the department are together every day and are quite familiar with each other. Song Lili is not shy, and Zhong Shan is even less shy because of his thick skin. Both of them responded to Zhang Juan's teasing openly.

After warming up in the house for a while, Zhong Shan said to Song Lili, "Lili, do you want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative too?"

When Song Lili heard this, her eyes lit up and she said, "Okay, okay, I want to go too!"

Seeing Song Lili's appearance, Zhong Shan couldn't help but sigh: It seems that women's love of shopping started in the 60s!

After saying something to Section Chief Sun, the two of them left the street office and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

The two first went to a stall selling bicycles. During the New Year, everyone wanted to have a smooth business. The salesperson did not look at them in a bad mood as usual, but sold goods with a rare smile.

When he arrived at the bicycle stall, Zhong Shan took out his bicycle ticket and said to the salesperson, "Comrade, I'm here to buy a bicycle. Do you have Forever 28 bicycles?"

The salesperson looked at the ticket and said, "Yes, these are all permanent 165. You can only look at them but not touch them. You can touch them after you buy them!" Well, although there was a smile on his face, the tone of his voice had shown that he might not be able to do that after all these years.

Zhongshan didn't care. He paid the money and the ticket, and then added a few dollars to buy a bicycle basket and an electric motorcycle light. Electric motorcycle lights are high-tech products that have existed in this era. They generate electricity through friction when riding a bicycle, thus lighting up the light.

Next to the bicycle stall, there was a stall installing electric motorcycle lights and baskets. After they were installed, the two of them were not in a hurry to leave, but started strolling around the supply and marketing cooperative.
