Aunt He left the bullpen with a happy face. On the way, when she met people in the team, they all asked her what she was happy about.

There is no need to hide the happy event, Aunt He said directly, "I will go to Qiu's house to find a matchmaker for Xiao Chan, this girl finally has a good fortune and a good marriage."

Everyone was curious and asked, "Oh, is that so, who is it?"

"As for Comrade Gu, who came from the city, he is a good-looking person who is still a college student. Although there are some problems with the status of the family, it's okay, as long as he is a down-to-earth person."

Everyone was dumbfounded now. Although it has been rumored that Qiu Xiaochan has something to do with Comrade Gu, everyone doesn't think that Comrade Gu can fall in love with Qiu Xiaochan, but just pour dirty water on Qiu Xiaochan to slander her.

After all, Comrade Gu had been matched by many people before and he didn't respond. Now that the two of them are really going to be together, everyone found that they were not happy, but felt as uncomfortable as eating flies.

When Mrs. He arrived at Qiu's house, Qiu Xiaochan had just returned from the pig farm, and was ready to choose vegetables with a vegetable basket.

"Xiaochan, you are at home, I have some good news to tell you."

Qiu Xiaochan invited her to sit in the main room, and Zhang Daying also came out of the room.

"You must have something to do when you came early in the morning. Could it be that you are introducing someone to Xiaochan?"

Zhang Daying said something casually, and Aunt He patted her on the leg, "You are right, I'm just here for matchmaking, guess which one I'm talking about?"

Zhang Daying and his daughter looked at each other in surprise, but they didn't expect that they really came here for this matter. Zhang Daying didn't think about Gu Wenqian at all, thinking that what Aunt He introduced was someone he knew, and that was the young man from her natal village.

"The son of Qin's fourth family? Or Ding Guangsheng's family? Your scope is too big, and I can't guess."

Aunt He groaned, "Why are you guessing there? Why don't you guess nearby, Comrade Gu, as we mentioned before, today he invited me to be a matchmaker."

"Ah? Didn't he say that he would not consider marriage for the time being?"

"It was then, and now is now. People's ideas will change. Besides, Xiaochan is such a good girl. After passing this village, there will be no shop here. He can figure it out."

Zhang Daying said cheerfully, "That's really a good thing, no wonder I got up this morning and heard magpies crowing."

"Don't worry about being happy, you haven't asked Xiao Chan what she means yet."

Qiu Xiaochan's cheeks were flushed, appropriately showing the shyness that a young girl should have when she hears others discussing her marriage.

"Xiaochan, you know Comrade Gu. He has helped you a lot. He is a decent person. I think this is a good marriage. What do you think?"

Qiu Xiaochan pursed her lips, embarrassed to speak, and finally nodded and ran away under the teasing eyes of the two elders.

Zhang Daying burst into tears with laughter, patted Aunt He's hand and said, "Thanks to you always thinking about Xiao Chan, my heart is finally at ease."

"Good things take time. A woman wants to marry a good man all her life. I've known Comrade Gu since he came here. Xiaochan can't go wrong marrying him."

Aunt He got the letter of approval from the Qiu family and went to the village to tell Gu Wenqian that since the marriage was settled, there were still etiquette issues to consider, such as how much dowry, how much dowry, when to choose a date, where to arrange the wedding room, etc. How to arrange the wedding banquet and so on.

The main reason is that Gu Wenqian is not a local, the elders in the family are all out of town, and Aunt He doesn't know how his family is doing.

"I'll write a letter to my family tomorrow. My mother is in poor health and can't go far away. As for my father... it's not convenient for him to go out now. If Aunt Zhang and Comrade Qiu have no objections, I think it will be done in the team."

Aunt He expressed her understanding, "These are trivial matters, and we can discuss how to do it. The important thing is that you two live a good life. If you can't become a fat person after one bite, then we will discuss this matter after you tell your family. I will go back today first. "

Gu Wenqian sent Aunt He out of the door.

After the dust settled, Gu Wenqian felt joy in his heart. He was once again sure that his decision was right. The night wind was cold, and it might not be so cold for the two of them to keep warm together. Of course, as a man, he had to support his wife. .

The news of the two getting married spread all over the village in an instant. There were people who talked about it, those who were not optimistic about it, those who didn't care about it, and those who secretly hoped that they would have no good results. Of course, there were also voices of blessing.

The captain's daughter-in-law chatted with her husband at home, "At that time, I thought they were a good match, but I didn't expect them to be together."

The captain sat under a tree enjoying the cool and smoking a cigarette, and didn't answer, and his wife wasn't annoyed either, she was obviously used to his behavior.

"Where do you think they live when they get married? Do they live in the village or in Qiu's house?"

The captain heard her talking more and more energetically, tapped the cigarette butt and finally replied, "Don't worry about other people's affairs, how many times have I told you, don't be like those gossips, you will lose your understanding if you talk too much."

He is also a team leader. He is in charge of more than 30 households in the team. It is not easy to manage two hundred people. How many people are watching his position? The family members should not go out and talk nonsense, if you don't mean to listen to what you say, it will be said that it is the captain's intention, so how can you manage people

At noon, Qiu Shunwen came back from the field for dinner, and summoned up the courage to speak to his daughter-in-law, "I heard that Xiao Chan is engaged, should we prepare something as brothers and sisters-in-law?"

Chen Guilian put down her face, knocked on the side of the bowl and asked, "I heard people say, who did you listen to, why didn't I hear it? I only heard that parents control their children's marriage, but I didn't hear that elder brother and sister-in-law also have to control. Our family is Do you have a lot of money? If you don’t have enough to eat, don’t wear clothes, and you still have the mood to control others!”

Qiu Shunwen guessed that his daughter-in-law would say this, and sighed, "Xiao Chan is also my sister, she has found a good family, and we can follow suit."

Chen Guilian snorted, and mocked, "It's a good marriage to find someone who is not easy to transfer? Your requirements are really not high. No wonder, she can only find such a person based on her conditions."

Qiu Shunwen was also not very happy, and hummed back, "That's better than being blind."

Naturally, it was referring to Chen Guilian's introduction to Blind Li.

Chen Guilian didn't expect her husband to dare to refute her, so she dropped her chopsticks angrily, and took away his bowl and refused to let him eat.

"I think you have too many good days. If you don't want to live with me, then go back and go with your mother and sister. They can still eat meat. It's not like me. I'm exhausted all day and can only come back to eat." Mouth pickles."

Qiu Shunwen held his head helplessly, as long as his wife quarreled, he would have nothing to do, and every quarrel would last for several days, he was the most impatient to quarrel, but what should I do, I can only admit it when I get married, no matter what she does If it's not good, he also gave birth to a son, so a man naturally has to let his wife.

Gu Wenqian wrote two letters, one was sent back to the capital, and the other was sent to the Northeast, telling his parents that he was about to get married, and also roughly speaking about Qiu Xiaochan's situation.

Of course, in line with the principle of reporting good news and not bad news, what he focused on was Qiu Xiaochan's character traits, not others.

After sending the letter to the post office, when passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, Gu Wenqian bought two pieces of cloth with the cloth tickets he had saved up, and also weighed a pound of shallot biscuits. From the color of the cloth, it can be seen that it was not for his own use. After all, big men also You can't use floral cloth, can you? It was to be sent to Qiu's family.

Ever since he decided to marry Qiu Xiaochan, he has already included her in his life. He saves himself, but he is obviously more generous to those who put it in his heart than to himself.

Gu Wenqian went to Qiu's house and knocked on the door. Qiu Xiaochan went to the pig farm and was not at home. It was Zhang Daying who opened the door. She was stunned for a long time before she thought of Gu Wenqian's identity. Just as she hurriedly welcomed him into the house, Gu Wenqian smiled. Handed over what was in his hand.

"Oh, Comrade Gu, what do you bring with you when you come, you don't need to spend this money."

"I bought two pieces of cloth for you to make clothes for. By the way, let's discuss about the marriage. What are the requirements for the dowry gift?"

"Our family doesn't have any requirements. The wedding banquet is held at home. We don't have many relatives. It's almost enough to set up twelve or three tables in the company. I have always saved the money for the wedding, but there are not enough receipts. Shopping is very troublesome. of."

In the era of the planned economy, in addition to food stamps to buy grain, sugar stamps were needed to buy wedding candy, meat stamps were needed to buy meat, stamps were needed to buy oil, and stamps were required to buy hot water bottles, enamel basins, and towels.

Seeing that the old lady was anxious, Gu Wenqian smiled and comforted her, "I'll figure out how to do this. Although I'm in a bad situation now, I'll do my best to hold a decent wedding and won't let Xiaochan feel wronged."

I'm afraid he didn't even realize that this time he called "Xiao Chan" instead of "Comrade Qiu".

When Qiu Xiaochan came home, she saw Zhang Daying talking happily with Gu Wenqian. Gu Wenqian stood up, and the two of them were a little embarrassed when their eyes met.

"Xiao Chan, Wen Qian came to discuss the matter of marriage, and bought two pieces of cloth, and weighed biscuits for you."

Biscuits are precious things for farmers, they are used for visiting relatives and friends, how can you spend money to buy them even if you can’t eat enough, Gu Wenqian himself is reluctant to eat them, which shows how much he feels about Qiu Xiaochan.

Qiu Xiaochan pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Gu Wenqian and asked, "Are you thirsty? I'll pour you a glass of water."

"That's right, I was so busy talking, I forgot to pour water."

Gu Wenqian also laughed, and Qiu Xiaochan noticed that when he smiled, there were dimples on his cheeks, and his brows stretched out, making him look like a young man in his twenties. He was too dull and serious before, so it's better to be cheerful.

Zhang Daying wanted to keep Gu Wenqian at home for dinner, but he declined and left, saying that he would choose a date here, and start preparing when a letter came from home.

"This young man is really nice, Xiao Chan, you have to live a good life with Wen Qian in the future."

"Mom, don't worry, as long as he treats me well, I will definitely live with him."

As long as the marriage mission is over, Qiu Xiaochan can't leave immediately, she must live until the end of her life before leaving. In this case, she is not satisfied with a passing score of 60, but pursues a higher score, after all, the score is linked to the points , the higher the score, the higher the points.

The letter from the capital quickly returned. There were two letters in total, one was written by Gu Wenqian’s mother He Meiyun, and the other was written by his uncle He Zhaoyuan. The two expressed their support for Gu Wenqian’s decision to marry. class bills and money.

My uncle wrote in the letter: "I know you are an ambitious child, but marriage is a big event. We have been preparing for this day for more than 20 years, and I am very happy for you. I also believe that the partner you choose must be a like-minded partner.

As the saying goes, "Given by the elders, dare not say goodbye", please accept these. Although the wedding ceremony cannot arrive at the scene, our hearts are with you. I wish you a new and happy chapter in your life.

In addition, your mother is taken care of by me, and I also entrust someone to take care of your father's place. Don't worry, I believe that after passing through this swamp, everyone will usher in a flat plain, and we will meet in the capital in the future. "
