Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

Bai Weiguo took the initiative to say: "How about letting your Uncle Bai's bus join in? He will be your driver himself!"

"Thank you so much!" Lin Zhengjun finalized some details with them and invited Lu Changyuan to attend his wedding before saying goodbye and leaving.

There are a few more people who need to be notified, such as Liang Jinkui from the Construction Bank on Beijie Street and my second sister's family.

He did not go to his second sister's house in person because it was too far, dozens of miles away.

Moreover, he had memorized the phone number of Luoshan County Transportation Company, so he called it immediately and his second sister answered the call.

When the second sister learned that her younger brother was getting married, she was very happy and even complained that he had informed her too late.

Lin Hongyu is really impetuous. Lin Zhengjun arrived home at three in the afternoon, but Lin Hongyu followed him home at around four in the evening.

The family was even more happy when they met each other.

While Lin Zhengjun was attending the National Congress of Writers, Lin Hongyu came to the Lin family once to visit her elder sister and gave her a red envelope. She had also seen Lin Zhengjun's new house.

But seeing it again at this moment, I couldn't help but sigh again.

Nowadays, even if employees of good units in the city are allocated housing, each person can only get about ten square meters at most. The average housing area of ​​urban residents is about four square meters.

But my brother's house is over a hundred square meters and has a large yard. I guess rich landlords before liberation would have lived in houses like this!

So arrogant!

……

November 11, the fifth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, Hewan Brigade.

The Lin family's new house became even more lively, with villagers coming in an endless stream to bring coal, firewood, various food ingredients, as well as tables, chairs and benches.

In rural areas, getting married is a big project and also a huge test of the host family's connections.

If you are a person with good character and prestige in the village, not only will there be many guests coming to your banquet, but there will also be many people coming to help, without you even having to say hello.

If you have a bad character and are hated by everyone in the village, even if you beg others to help you, they will refuse to help you.

The Lin family naturally wouldn't have this problem.

From an emotional point of view, the earth-shaking changes in the Hewan Brigade were all brought about by Lin Zhengjun, and everyone was grateful to him;

Considering the benefits, who doesn’t want to invest in a cooperative or become a worker?

Therefore, everyone is scrambling to do the work, and whoever doesn't get any work will feel depressed!

My eldest brother-in-law Yang Kaixuan took a leave and came back from the county town.

After all, he lives far away. If he doesn't go there one day in advance, he will miss the trip!

He was a very career-oriented person and he didn't even take leave when his wife was in confinement after giving birth. However, he took Lin Zhengjun's marriage too seriously and had to participate in the whole process!

My second brother-in-law Tao Yaowu also arrived.

He originally wanted to go to Lin Zhengjun's house first, but when he arrived at the village entrance, he was deeply attracted by the continuous brick and tile houses on the back mountain, which seemed particularly spectacular!

So, I ran to the collective food cooperative of Hewan Brigade to take a look.

He came to visit relatives in Hewan Brigade every Spring Festival, and became very familiar with Wei Hongbing and others, so he was able to go in and visit smoothly.

Then he was stunned!

"This factory building and assembly line are very standard, no different from those in the city!" Tao Yaowu didn't understand it, but was deeply shocked.

Not only are the factory buildings and assembly lines standard, but even the workers wear uniforms and masks like workers in the city, which makes them look particularly professional.

"The growth line was bought from the Arctic Ocean Factory..." Wei Hongbing gave a brief introduction.

Tao Yaowu was shocked to find that they had brought machinery and equipment from a big place in the capital. He was stunned for several seconds before asking, "How much do you pay in wages per month?"

"The monthly salary for workers is 60 yuan, and for middle-level managers it's more. The key is that we have all bought shares, and the dividends at the end of the year are estimated to be several hundred yuan! Zhengjun has a lot of shares, so we can earn more than 100,000 yuan a year!"

Wei Hongbing gave a relatively conservative estimate.

Tao Yaowu was so shocked that he was dumbfounded. His heart was filled with turmoil and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

At this moment, he also understood why Lin Zhengjun had firmly opposed his speculation and profiteering.

Speculation and profiteering are very risky, but you can only make a few dollars a month, which is almost the same as your salary. However, Lin Zhengjun can make thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars every month!

How can you compare this?

The key is that they comply with the policies and have become a benchmark and model set up by the county. They have a smooth journey and are surrounded by flowers and applause.

He gradually had a direction in his mind. If he wanted to do business, he had to learn from people like Lin Zhengjun, who could make money and have a good reputation!

After being caught for speculation and profiteering, you will be paraded through the streets and put in jail. Even a dog wouldn't do that!

Afterwards, he rushed to Lin Zhengjun's new house, feeling that he had a lot to say to Lin Zhengjun.

In the new house, the three sisters Lin Sanhuai, Zhang Shuqin and Lin Hongmei and Yang Kaixuan were chatting about the wedding in the yard, full of joy and anticipation.

Basically, everything that needs to be prepared for the wedding has been prepared, but on the day before the wedding, everyone is idle.

In the main room, Lin Zhengjun and Tang Xiaofu were looking at the brand new color photos in the frames on the wall. These were sent by the county photo studio yesterday.

In the photo, Tang Xiaofu is wearing a pink windbreaker, with her head leaning on Lin Zhengjun's shoulder. She is smiling very sweetly, but her eyes seem to be filled with tears, graceful and moving.

"When we are old and have many children and grandchildren, we can hold our little grandson in our arms and show him the photos of how we looked when we were married. How happy we will be!" Lin Zhengjun imagines the future.

"Oh, it would be great if it were like that!" Tang Xiaofu suddenly felt her nose sore and she wanted to cry again.

It's not that she is emotionally fragile, it's just that it has been very difficult for her along the way.

A strong desire surged in her heart, to be with Lin Zhengjun for the rest of her life, to grow old together, and never be separated even through all the ups and downs.

At this moment, Tao Yaowu rode his bicycle into the yard and offered cigarettes to Lin Sanhuai and Yang Kaixuan first.

Then he laughed and said, "Zhengjun, I just went to the collective food cooperative and saw that you are making a fortune. My small business is nothing compared to yours!"

"That's why I resolutely won't let you do it. It's not worth it!" Lin Zhengjun walked out with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, have some tea!" Tang Xiaofu poured Tao Yaowu a cup of tea.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Tao Yaowu took it with both hands and said, "Zhengjun, you have a quick mind. You must find a way to do business for me. I also want to get rich!"

Lin Hongyu said with a sad face: "It's not good, his salary is not enough to spend!"

Lin Sanhuai frowned and criticized: "Yaowu's salary is quite high, and your family won't need your support in the future. The money will definitely be enough for them to spend. You are just used to spending lavishly!"

"Who complains about having too much money? Even my eldest sister is planning to do business, I can't just sit there doing nothing!" Lin Hongyu said.

Lin Sanhuai said: "Okay, your brother is going to have his wedding, which is more important than anything else. Let's talk about your business after he gets married!"

Lin Zhengjun knew that his second sister was a money-grubber. She was more cunning and aggressive than his eldest sister, and he could not stop her at all. So he said with a smile, "Don't worry, second sister. After the wedding, I will find you a good job that can make a lot of money!"

"What's your business?" Lin Hongyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Secret first!"

The family was chatting happily when the commune director Xu Zhigong rode his bicycle and hurried to Lin Zhengjun's new house.

"Director Xu, why are you here?" Lin Zhengjun quickly poured tea and offered cigarettes.

Xu Zhigong was so tired that he was out of breath and had a dry mouth.

He took the tea and drank it in one gulp, then said excitedly, "Zhengjun, Tang Zhiqing's grandfather called and said they have arrived in the county and settled in the county guesthouse!"

Hearing this, everyone's face showed excitement and nervousness.
