In January 1984, Qin Rou had no chance to see the portrait of the matchmaker. Before the first month, Lu Yan took her annual leave. This year, the family decided to celebrate the New Year in Guangcheng. The house they bought in Guangcheng has been handed over and renovated.
As a new house, it is necessary to enter the fire, and the family has to go in to celebrate a new year, because there is a tradition that if the house is unoccupied in the first year, unclean things may come in, so it is necessary to celebrate the new year in the new house and tell those who are not Clean stuff, this house has its owner! Don't come in and live here.
The family took their luggage and went to Xucheng by boat. Gu Cheng and Chu Ge went to Guangcheng with them, because they just got married this year, and because of the short time, they did not consider going back to the north, but the parents of the two parties came. Guangcheng.
The weather in Guangcheng is not cold in winter, and it is also suitable for the elderly to spend the winter. In addition, the family wants to see more of the prosperity and excitement of Guangzhou, so the two families decided to discuss their marriage in Guangcheng, and then come to Qiongzhou Island.
The two little sisters, Doudou and Rongrong, were very excited when they knew they were leaving the island. They ran around their parents like two butterflies: "Mom and Dad, we are going to Guangcheng for the New Year!"
The opportunity to get out of the island is very rare for the little sisters. The two children are very excited. The boats and dumplings on the side are two old fritters, not as enthusiastic as the younger sister.
The two brothers hooked shoulders.
Doudou asked curiously, "Mom, when will we go to our hometown in Jiaodao to celebrate the New Year!"
"Look at the snow!"
"There is snow in my hometown!"
Doudou and Rong Rong are southern girls who have never really seen snow, and they have a natural yearning for things like snowflakes.
"Let's go to our hometown in Jiaodao to celebrate the New Year in the future."
Gu Cheng and Chu Ge, the two newlyweds who had issued a marriage report, were standing beside them waiting for the boat together. Today, Gu Cheng was wearing black clothes and black trousers, and looked at no one in love with his indifferent face.
"Cool" is just one word.
Chu Ge likes his appearance very much.
He whispered to Chu Ge, and Gu Cheng frowned. Lu Yan and his wife next door had a bunch of small tails, and he, who was only one year younger than Lu Yan, was just newly married.
"Doudou and Rongrong are very cute, let's have a daughter in the future." Gu Cheng said to Chu Ge.
Chu Ge blushed, "I'll talk about having a daughter later."
Doudou tilted her head and poked her head out from Chu Ge's legs: "Uncle Gu, do you also think Doudou is cute?"
Rongrong came out from the other side: "Uncle Gu, do you think Rongrong is cuter? Or Doudou?"
Gu Cheng: "..."
Let's only have one daughter in the future, two daughters are hard to deal with.
Chu Ge covered her mouth and smiled.
"Lu Yan!" Gu Cheng called the father of the child.
Lu Yan strode over and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother Lu."
"Your daughter asks you, is elder sister Doudou cuter or younger sister Rongrong cuter?" Gu Cheng asked narrowly, such a big problem should be left to the child's own father to solve.
Lu Yan raised her eyebrows: "Doudou, Rongrong, what do you think?"
"Of course mom is the cutest!"
Qin Rou hugged her chest and said, "Your mother is not cute, please call me beautiful mother."
"It's cute mother, beautiful Doudou."
"It's beautiful Rongrong!"
A group of them boarded the boat, first took the boat to Xucheng, and then took the train to Guangcheng. After getting off the train, they were too tired. Lu Yan and Gu Cheng went to Lu Qing's tea restaurant to rest together. .
Gu Cheng's parents were also there.
After several years of development, the third brother-in-law Lu Qing's tea restaurant is no longer a small roadside stall. He built a small two-storey tea restaurant and opened a two-story tea restaurant.
There are several rooms on the second floor that can provide accommodation. Not only Gu Cheng's parents stay here, but Lu Yan's parents are also here.
This is the ideal home for Lao Lu and his wife. They eat and drink in the restaurant every day, go out for a walk in the morning, come back to watch TV dramas, occasionally fish and catch shrimp, and go to the water bank to drink a bowl of porridge.
Very comfortable retirement life. Winter in Guangcheng is not cold. Wear thick clothes in the morning and evening. When the sun comes out at noon, some young people who are full of energy seem to be summer. They take off their coats and only wear short sleeves inside.
Some wear cotton-padded clothes and some wear short-sleeved clothes. It may be a very chaotic season.
"Yanzai and his wife are here!"
"Grandpa and grandma!!!" Doudou Rongrong shouted enthusiastically when she saw her grandpa and grandma.
"Hey, my good granddaughters are here, Zhou Zhou and Jiaozi have grown taller again..."
"Come, come, come and meet your grandpa Gu." Lu Zongyi put his arms around the shoulders of the two granddaughters, and introduced his grandchildren to Gu Cheng's father, old man Gu.
"Grandpa Gu!" several children said together.
"Okay, okay, hello." When old man Gu saw his two grandsons and two granddaughters, he was filled with envy, melancholy, and hope.
Lu Yan, the youngest son of the old Lu family, is only one year older than his son Gu Cheng. Their sons are almost twelve years old, but what about his family? The kid just got married.
How can it compare to others
Old man Gu glared at his boy, Gu Cheng. He swept Gu Cheng up and down, and found that this unlucky boy was completely black. He wondered if he did it on purpose
This guy is in the navy, and all he sees is white all day long. The warships are white, and the military uniform is white. When he brings his new wife to see him, he wears all black.
What is he trying to do
Old man Gu gave him a disgusted look: "When you come to Guangcheng, you should gain a lot of knowledge, and go shopping with Xiao Chu in the clothes market."
"It's a big wedding, let's wear red for half a month."
Gu Cheng: "...you have to wear it yourself."
Gu Cheng couldn't imagine himself wearing red clothes.
"If you don't wear red clothes, you have to wear red pants inside?"
Gu Cheng lazily said: "No."
"You guys are going to take that wedding photo next year, right? Xiao Chu looks good in a white wedding dress, and you, you can wear a red dress. After finally marrying a daughter-in-law, wear some happy colors to get rid of your previous bad luck."
"Xiao Chu, are you right?"
Chu Ge covered her mouth and smiled: "Yes, yes, you are right."
Qin Rou went to take a shower first and took a nap. At night, several family members sat in the large box on the second floor of the tea restaurant and watched TV. At this moment, there were many people on the first floor of the restaurant, but the second floor was much quieter.
"Brother-in-law's craftsmanship is getting better and better."
"This white-cut chicken is really delicious."
"Little aunt!" Xia Mingxi brought her three-year-old little brother Honghong over. The youngest son of Lu Qing and third sister Lu Xuan is called Lu Guihong, Guihong, Luoyan Guihong, which sounds very elegant and romantic.
The reason for choosing this name is to commemorate the letters that Lu Xuan and his wife wrote back then, and second, because who is Lu Xuan's eldest son Xia Mingxi, classmate Xiao Ming, and classmate Xiao Ming's good partner
It's Xiaohong (Hong)!
After calling Lu Guihong, there were classmates Xiaoming and Xiaohong (Hong) in their family. Xiaoming and Xiaohong sounded very kind and approachable.
Xiao Hong followed Xiao Ming and shouted: "Little uncle, little aunt!"
Compared with Xia Mingxi, a carefree and cheerful social cow expert, his younger brother Xiaohong is a rather shy little boy with red lips and white teeth.
"It's my brother!"
"Brother Honghong!!"
Sisters Doudou and Rongrong surrounded the only Honghong brother. They have a little brother, but they are just such a little cousin.
"Brother, come and play with sister!"
"Hurry up, call me sister, you call me sister Rongrong!"
"Sister Rongrong..."
"You call her Sister Dou."
"Sister Dou."
…
Lu Zongyi looked at his big family in front of him, and couldn't help showing a gratified smile, "When next year, ask the second and third to come and celebrate the New Year together."
—There are so many people in his family!
The family had dinner together, removed the plates, served tea and snacks, and everyone sat around watching TV. Qin Rou yawned and wanted to pass the time by watching two episodes of TV series at night, but the old man Comrade Lu tuned the TV to Qiongzhou Island Channel.
Qin Rou: "...?" Guangcheng has also become popular to watch Qiongzhou Island channel
Old Lu laughed and said, "I recently discovered a new thing, come and see it, it's a blind date show."
Lu Xuan and Lu Qing didn't care about these emotional things.
Old man Gu responded, "What blind date show?"
"Blind date on TV!"
"How do you go on a blind date on TV?"
"Don't you know if you look at it?"
…
The two old men were very curious about the blind date show. Qin Rou put on a blank face. Didn't expect "Heart Connection" to become popular in Guangcheng
Lu Yan suppressed a smile and poured a cup of comforting tea for his daughter-in-law, "Daughter-in-law, sister Rou, come, drink tea and have some snacks."
"Do you want Brother Lu to peel melon seeds and peanuts for you?"
"Stop coming." Qin Rou pushed him away with a smile. She wasn't worried at the moment. After the last show, Qin Rou had already called the people from the TV station, so she didn't need to talk about her on the show. name, focusing on promoting her pearl craft garden and other pearl products.
She Qin Rou is not a matchmaker!
Fortunately, I don't have a mobile phone or computer at the moment. The programs that were shown on TV in the past have been missed on TV, and they cannot be watched online.
There are more and more people watching Qiongzhou Island TV Station, and there are more and more commercial advertisements on the TV station.
Before the "Heart Connected" program started, a voice came from the TV:
"... Eat soft shrimp crackers and indulge in South Island pearls."
Advertisements in this era are very simple and have no special features. Refrigerator advertisements are a bunch of refrigerators for people to see, washing machine advertisements are also a bunch of washing machines for people to see, and the shrimp crackers advertisements broadcast now are also a bunch of people on the screen. Shrimp crackers.
Next to it is written in old font: Shrimp Soft Shrimp Chips.
Lu Zongyi wondered: "What's the relationship between shrimp crackers and pearls?"
Old man Gu said: "Ask your daughter-in-law, doesn't she raise pearls?"
"Xiao Qin, these shrimp crackers..."
"Because the owner of this shrimp chip factory originally opened a pearl cultivation factory, and his shrimp cultivation factory is the second largest non-state-owned pearl cultivation factory on our island."
Lao Lu and Lao Gu frowned together, confused: "Xiarou Pearl Farm?"
Qin Rou: "..."
She suddenly felt that this kind of local station was terrible, and familiar people and things would appear on it.
Zhang Xiesheng, the owner of the Shrimp Chips Factory, has already started advertising.
What's even more frightening is that she recommended him to open this shrimp chip factory when she was joking.
People in the 1980s were very practical. When they said they wanted to open a shrimp chip factory, they would open a shrimp chip factory.
This is an era where you can take off on the flat ground, and it is also an era where you can create dreams. You can really do what you want to do.
Some inadvertent ideas can actually become reality.
