Just like when we came here, when we go back, only Lin Qingsong will see us off.
Lin Changzheng didn't come, but he asked the guards to drive them to the train station. When getting off the car, the guards handed over a large bag to Xu Nannan and Lin Qingbai.
"This is prepared by the chief in the past few days. He said it was a gift for Comrade Yu Nannan's family,"
Lin Qingsong asked immediately, "What did the old man prepare?"
"Go back and ask Dad." Lin Qingbai took Xu Nannan away with the bag. Lin Qingsong shouted depressingly, "Oh, let's just leave, don't say anything."
Without looking back, Lin Qingbai directly dragged Xu Nannan to the station.
Lin Qingsong wanted to send them to the car, but the guards here had to go back to take care of the old man, and the car couldn't wait for anyone, so he curled his lips depressedly, and got into the car.
When he got in the car, he still couldn't help but open the car window and take a look.
This separation, I don't know when the family will be reunited.
This time when the two went back, they still sat in the sleeper workshop. After getting into the car, Xu Nannan secretly looked at the things Lin Changzheng had prepared. They were amazing, including tobacco, alcohol, tea, and supplements. You can't buy it outside by looking at the packaging. All are special.
Looking again, there is a small box, which does not look like a gift.
Lin Qingbai opened it and saw a wad of money and various military tickets inside.
Xu Nannan immediately took the lid to cover the box, and glanced to the side, the money is not in vain. But who knew that Lin Qingbai's father could send money directly.
Stuffing the box and the box into his close-fitting backpack, Xu Nannan planned to throw it into Taobao later while Lin Qingbai was not paying attention.
"I'll keep the money first, and I'll give it to you when I return to Nanjiang." She said seriously.
Lin Qingbai leaned back on the bed with a smile, "It's for you, why give it to me, this is the betrothal gift from the old man to your family."
Hearing that it was a betrothal gift, Xu Nannan was surprised, and glanced at his backpack, "I thought your father was not satisfied with me."
Back this time, Lin Changzheng rarely talked to her, and seldom laughed, and with Li Wan's attitude, she felt that she might not have the approval of the Lin family. Lin Changzheng didn't object directly, probably because of Brother Lin's sake.
I didn't expect to prepare gifts and dowry this time.
"No one can guess what he thinks in his heart. This is why I haven't been able to get close to him these years. But he can prepare these for you, which shows that you are still very much in his mind. Comrade Nannan, look Come on, you are still very attractive."
Xu Nannan was praised, and smiled proudly, "That's not true, and I don't want to see who it is."
While sleeping, Xu Nannan threw all the valuables on his body into his backpack. Although these years are not so rampant, but the heart of defense is indispensable.
Fortunately, the road was safe, and when they arrived at the provincial capital railway station three days later, Xu Nannan felt like a wanderer returning home.
Finally come back.
The weather on the Nanjiang side is much better than that on the capital side. Although it was starting to get cold, it was a sunny day. Wearing a padded jacket will do the trick.
Back in Nanjiang, the two went straight to Yu's house.
Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu received a telegram, knowing that they would be back that day. Two days earlier, I went to the supply and marketing agency to buy fresh Chinese cabbage and came back. I went to cut the pork again and came back with cabbage and pork dumplings.
When Xu Nannan and Lin Qingbai arrived home, they looked at the kitchen table full of round dumplings.
The water in the pot was boiling and steaming.
This is the feeling of home.
Before eating, Xu Nannan gave the gifts from Lin Changzheng, including money and tickets, to Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu.
As the elders of the family, these things have to be handled by them.
Grandpa Yu looked at these things, but he didn't slow down, "Is the bride price given so soon?"
Lin Qingbai smiled and said, "My dad knew we were engaged, so he gave it in advance. Nan Nan and I may not go to the capital for the time being, and we will do it here."
Grandpa Yu felt that this was too much.
When people give bride price, they can only give one hundred yuan at most, so it must be one thousand. And these tickets, you can buy things anywhere.
It seems that Nannan has obtained the approval of the other party's parents.
"I'll keep it for you, and when you get married, you will hold banquets and buy things, and you will get it from here. Xiaolin's salary doesn't need to be moved, and you can save it for your future."
Grandpa Yu didn't worry about the lives of the young couple anymore. They are all paid wages and have houses to live in. Xiao Lin is also capable, and Nan Nan will not suffer in the future. As for Xiaoman, he and his wife still have to worry about it. This child is still young and has a shy temper, so he is worried about being bullied.
After dinner, Lin Qingbai went back to the county party committee.
He also delayed returning to the capital for several days this time, worried that something happened in the county, so he had to go back and have a look.
Xu Nannan sent him out and walked on the road. Lin Qingbai took her arm and lowered his head, "Let's have dinner together the night after tomorrow."
Xu Nannan said, "Why are you eating outside again?"
She felt that eating out when they were in a relationship used to be fun, but now that they are engaged, she shouldn't eat out all the time. Lin Qingbai didn't let her spend money, so she had to save Lin Qingbai money.
"Have you forgotten what the day after tomorrow is?" Lin Qingbai asked in surprise.
Xu Nannan thought for a while, but didn't know what the day after tomorrow would be. It's Friday the day after tomorrow, and it's not the weekend. She looked at Lin Qingbai and guessed, "Your birthday?"
Lin Qingbai pinched her face, "My birthday is February, it's still early."
Seeing that Xu Nannan really didn't think about it, his eyes showed distress, and he gently rubbed the top of her hair, "Anyway, leave it to me the day after tomorrow, let's have dinner together. Well, if I wasn't busy at the end of the year, I would like to ask for leave You went to the provincial capital."
"What are you going to do in the provincial capital? Going to the movies every week will cost a lot of money just for the train ticket."
Lin Qingbai immediately conceded defeat, feeling that he had not found a little girl who needed to be taken care of by himself, but a little housekeeper.
"Okay, you will be in charge of our family's money in the future, and our family's money must only come in and out."
Xu Nannan smiled triumphantly. That's not it. In the past, when she had no money, she had to eat, drink, and pay rent. In order not to become a paycheck to paycheck, she had good financial management skills.
Even in this age, although she usually looks like a big spender shopping everywhere, the money she spends is nothing compared to the money she earns.
The money in Taobao stores has been increasing.
Thinking of the money in the Taobao store, Xu Nannan was worried again. If she bought a set of equipment materials, she would be really stretched.
Still have to find a way to make a lot of money. Otherwise, cheat the second child again
Anyway, he has so much money that he has no place to spend it, so it would be good to use some money to do something that benefits the country and the people. Don't block him next time.
After sending Lin Qingbai away, Xu Nannan hurried home and prepared to enter the Taobao store to have a look. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Xiaoman lying on the table in a daze.
Looking at the homework on the desk, I didn't write anything.
"You guys are going on winter vacation soon." Xu Nannan asked.
Xiaoman nodded. Xiaoman's eyes look like Li Jing's, and his face looks like Xu Jiansheng's, especially now that his body is getting better and his face is growing, he looks more and more like Xu Jiansheng.
She stared at Xu Nannan for a while, seemingly hesitating.
Xu Nannan said, "What's wrong with you?" This child has a puppy love, she thought worriedly.
Xiao Man bit her lip, shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about my homework."
"Then do your homework well. If you don't understand, just ask me." Xu Nannan patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile. She also knows that she has been busy with work and dating matters recently, and she doesn't pay attention to Xiaoman as much as when she was dependent on each other. This child is more delicate, so she should give more care.
I went to work early the next morning and sold my leave first. Because at the end of the year, there is no need to purchase anything, so everyone in the office is there.
As soon as Xu Nannan entered the room, he found that Li Weiming's face was flushed.
Sister Liu said beside her, "Xiao Li is going to be a father."
Zhu Fang has it? ! Xu Nannan was shocked by the news. Think back when she and Zhu Fang met, Zhu Fang was still a little girl, now she is going to be a mother.
"how long it has been?"
"More than two months." Li Weiming smiled. With the glory of being a father soon in his eyes.
Thinking of the imminent birth of a little life, Xu Nannan was also excited. After work at noon, I immediately went to the Mining Committee to find Zhu Fang.
Zhu Fang is going to be a mother, and she also has a bit of a pregnant look on her face. She walks with her waist supported, and her belly is not big yet, so she looks quite like that.
Looking at Xu Nannan, she blinked with a bit of complacency.
The two met in the cafeteria, and Zhu Fang sighed, "I didn't think it was good to have a baby before, but when I really have a baby, I think everything is fine. I would rather eat less and wear less, and raise him well."
Looking at Xu Nannan again, "How about you going to the capital to meet your partner's parents this time?"
"It's okay, I didn't say I disagreed."
"Why don't you agree? If you are like this, who can pick you?" In Zhu Fang's eyes, Xu Nannan's conditions are the best. There are really few in the mine that can compare.
Xu Nannan smiled, "That's not certain." At least Li Wan didn't like her. Fortunately, she didn't like Li Wan either.
While the two were talking, another worker they knew came over to say hello and asked Xu Nannan about his trip to the capital.
Xu Nannan took a long time off this time, and someone asked casually, knowing that he went to the capital to see his partner's parents, and this matter became a topic of chatting.
There is a partner in this mine, but I really haven't found a partner in the capital.
Knowing that Xu Nannan was looking for it, I wanted to know how it turned out. Can people in the capital really like girls from our small place
Xu Nannan didn't go into details, and everyone who came would give two words, "Very good."
This is really settled.
Everyone envied Xu Nannan for finding a husband's family in the capital.
"Meizi, what's going on with you and Director Wu, the conversation is not short."
Xiaoqin, Xu Meizi's coworker, asked.
Both of them are apprentices, and Xiaoqin is looking for front-line workers in the mine, the kind who want to go down to the mine. Xu Meizi was able to find a trade union like Officer Wu, which made other apprentices quite envious.
Seeing Xu Nannan's beauty now, some people inevitably thought of Xu Meizi.
Xu Meizi squeezed her chopsticks and glanced at Wu Bin who was silent beside her, "What's the rush, I can't get the certificate now either."
"Isn't it possible to get engaged? She got engaged when she was in charge. I heard that two tables were held. It was in time for her to get married."
Xiaoqin glanced at Xu Nannan and said deliberately.
"Engagement is not marriage, so what's so great about it." Xu Meizi said in a neutral tone, and stood up with the bowl and chopsticks in hand. He looked back at Wu Bin who was sitting still, "Still leaving?"
Wu Bin was eating aggrievedly, and when he heard her commanding tone, he felt uncomfortable all over. He could only stand up stiffly. Follow Xu Meizi out together.
Walking outside, Xu Meizi said while washing the dishes, "You heard it just now, we've been together for so long, shouldn't it be settled?"
"What's the deal? Didn't you just say it, and you can't get the certificate?"
"If you can't get a certificate, it's okay to hold a table." Xu Meizi was a little angry after all. Even if I am worse than Xu Nannan, I can't be much worse. Besides, there were many nights and dreams, so she had to tie Wu Bin even tighter.
Wu Bin said, "Why do you learn from others? It's a waste of a table. It's better to have an extra table when you get married."
Speaking of the word marriage, his own heart trembled. The thought of marrying such a woman would give him nightmares at night.
"Others are willing, why don't you. You go back and talk to your mother about this matter. In our hometown, you can live your whole life without getting a certificate. If you don't want to get engaged, let's get married directly. We will get a certificate when we reach the age. "Xu Meizi simply followed the trend.
Xu Hong's reputation has been ruined, which has affected her to some extent. Being able to be with Wu Bin now is her best condition.
Hearing that Xu Meizi mentioned the important matter of marriage again, Wu Bin felt his scalp go numb.
Seeing that he was silent, Xu Meizi narrowed her eyes and said, "I didn't mean to scare you with what I said before. You should think it over carefully."
When Xu Meizi left, the look in Wu Bin's head kept spinning.
When he went to work in the afternoon, he was completely out of shape. I was scolded many times by Chairman Liu.
"Officer Yu, I have something to tell you." Xu Nannan just got off work in the afternoon, and Wu Bin stopped her at the door.
Xu Nannan said, "Let's not get along with the procurement department and the labor union."
"It's about Xu Meizi. I know you have a bad relationship with Xu Meizi. Don't you want to punish her?"
Wu Bin's tone seemed a little anxious.
"Officer Wu, don't look for trouble. I'm a good person. Why do I punish others. You have conflicts with Comrade Xu Meizi. If you have conflicts, resolve them yourself. If you can't resolve them, go to Director Zhu."
"It's not a contradiction, it's Xu Meizi...too shameless." Wu Bin cried directly. He felt aggrieved and uncomfortable this afternoon. How can he be so useless as a big man. He wanted to escape, but he couldn't think of anything else, so he could only find this officer Yu who had a bad relationship with Xu Meizi.
"Xu Meizi threatened me. If I don't agree to marry her, I will be sued for being a hooligan. Officer Yu, you don't like her either. Let's find a way to fix her so that she can't hold her head up." He whispered , and there was a bit of malice in the voice.
Xu Nannan was almost shocked when he heard his words.
He gave Wu Bin a crazy look, "My partner is still waiting for me, you can handle this matter yourself." Then he ran away in a hurry.
Xu Meizi is crazy, looking at this Wu Bin will also be forced to become crazy.
And what Xu Hong did to Lin Qingsong last time...
How many sins did Xu Meizi commit
