Chapter 204 Wedding Invitation
The purpose of celebrating the Chinese New Year is to be reunited with the family.
We all gathered together to eat, drink, chat, and have a great time.
She gains three pounds every festive season. With Damao's blessing, Gu Mingyue's family has never lacked meat.
The weather is cold here. Generally in winter, families who have the conditions will make a lot of dumplings at once, then take them outside, freeze them first, put the frozen dumplings in a basin of water, and then freeze them again.
During the coldest days of winter, dumplings soon turn into indestructible little ingots.
Pour it into the big vat in the yard, and it becomes a natural freezer. You can cook two whenever you want to eat them, and they will taste as good as when they were freshly made.
Gu Mingyue booked two large tanks, half a person's height, and filled them up. If you ask her why she didn't leave some space, it was purely for the sake of scenery and fun.
The main thing is to open the lid and see the jar full of dumplings, which gives you a special sense of accomplishment.
The year passed in a flash, and it was 1963 in the blink of an eye.
This year, all the villagers in Gujia Village officially escaped poverty and entered a life of more than enough food and clothing. Everyone went to work or worked in a workshop.
Except for babies in swaddling clothes, there is no idle person in the village, from old to young.
It can be said that the current life is entirely earned by everyone's hard work. Work points are getting higher and higher, life is getting better and better, and everyone is enthusiastic.
The whole village is thriving, and its mental outlook is far ahead of the surrounding villages.
When it comes to mental outlook, we have to mention Uncle Gu.
Ever since the basket weaving part of the handicraft workshop was handed over to him, the old man seems to have ushered in a second spring in his career.
Gu Mingyue teased him, saying that looking at his spirit, he could easily live another 500 years.
Even though he got scolded, anyone could see that the old man enjoyed it.
Although the vegetable basket did not receive any foreign orders, it became very popular in Harbin. Department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives all received orders, and they were in constant flow.
But this product is more time-consuming and labor-intensive than jewelry, and the craftsmanship is more stringent. The quality is not proportional to the quantity, and in addition to the transportation costs and mid-transit losses, it was decided that the vegetable basket would only be supplied to Harbin.
Exquisite is not expensive.
He's already busy enough, and I heard that Uncle Gu is looking for a disciple recently!
New Years later, Bai Fenglai and Liang Shaoling held their wedding in the village.
Neither of them was the kind of person who liked crowds, so they just wanted to simply treat everyone to a meal without making a big fuss.
As they couldn't leave the new students behind, Bai Fenglai discussed with Liang Shaoling and decided to move in with her.
After all, when the house was first built, it was deliberately built large and spacious, and all the designs were almost comparable to those in the city, which was more convenient and more accustomed.
Liang Shaoling was not a stubborn person. He originally thought that his whole life would be like this. Who would have thought that one day he would get married.
Even if someone laughed at him for marrying a second wife, or said he was trying to climb up the social ladder, as long as it was not mentioned in front of him, he would pretend not to hear it.
To use the words that Mingyue often says, no one doesn't talk about others behind their back, and no one is not talked about behind their back. It is impossible for him to stop people from talking, and the most important thing is to live his own life well.
But even though he didn't care, it didn't stop him from going back to complain to his wife, and he was satisfied only when he got some tender and sweet comfort.
The sultry attribute is confirmed...
Gu Mingyue discovered that whether in modern times or now, May Day and National Day are peak wedding seasons.
Just now, she received a letter from Xu Xiwen, inviting her to attend the wedding.
Her popular science education had such a profound impact that both of her two best friends became single women before they found their ideal partners.
Oh, Lu Xue hasn’t yet. It seems like she is about to enter the stage of discussing marriage.
After all, she is my best friend, so of course I have to help with such a big event as her wedding. Since there was nothing happening in the village recently, I decided to go there early.
Xiao Shitou still has to go to school, and the child is older now, so she is not as worried as before that the other person will be scared.
Besides, not to mention that his uncle would definitely take him home, this guy probably wouldn't have the heart to go out.
Dandan was very hardworking. The bitch in Linshan's family gave birth to eight puppies.
Give one each to Shen Qianzhong, the Bai family, the uncle's family, and Liang Shaoling.
Uncle Lin kept two for himself, and there were two left, so Gu Mingyue bought them all.
This keeps the children in the family very busy. The first thing they do when they open their eyes every day is to play with the dog.
If she hadn't discovered it in time, the three little ones would have taken the puppy to school to show off.
So, there is no need to ask, Xiao Shitou is definitely reluctant to leave.
Before she left, she reminded them again and again that dogs were not allowed to be brought to school, but she didn't know that when she came back, she would be greeted by her parents...
After living in the countryside for so long, I’m not used to going out.
I backed up, bought tickets, and got on the train. I finally squeezed onto the train and felt like I was going to lose a layer of skin.
Although train tickets are expensive, there are always a lot of people on the train. Oh, and by the way, there are also all kinds of livestock.
Her seat was next to the aisle, and when the train started, there was constant noise in the carriage. She could still tolerate the sound, but the smell was unbearable.
So he took out an orange, peeled it and put the peel under his nose to smell it.
Fresh, fruity scent that quickly catches your attention.
Gu Mingyue was dressed in a fresh and beautiful outfit, with fair skin and a bright face. She was eye-catching just by sitting there.
Fruits are not cheap nowadays, especially in the north. Even if they are available, the quality is rarely as perfect as the ones she has.
Some people envy while others cannot stand it.
Sitting opposite her was an old lady who looked very old-fashioned. The corners of her mouth drooped down, making her look even more demanding. She asked, "Little girl, what do you do?"
This person has been staring at her with his glasses since he got on the bus. Gu Mingyue naturally realized that the other person was not friendly. She was already feeling annoyed while sitting in the bus and didn't want to pay any attention to her.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the old lady waved her hand in front of her and said, "Hey, I'm talking to you."
"Do I know you?" Gu Mingyue asked bluntly.
Seeing her attitude, the old lady said pretentiously, "We don't know each other, but it's fate that we sit together. I'm bold enough to say a few words to you. Your ideological quality is very problematic. After all, we are your elders. Judging from the way you are dressed, your family conditions should be good. I guess you have been to school. Why do you talk to me in a nonchalant and sarcastic way? Haven't you learned to respect the elderly and love the young? Also, you are so young, but you eat such expensive food. Have you ever thought that in the difficult places in our country, there are comrades who work a hundred times harder than us and don't have enough to eat. Alas, little girl, hedonism is not good. I couldn't help but kindly remind you. You won't blame me for meddling in your business, will you?"
When the people around heard this, some nodded in agreement secretly, while others frowned slightly.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the old lady was deliberately looking for trouble, probably taking advantage of the young girl because she was young and naive.
Gu Mingyue didn't expect that there are still old white lotuses in this era. If she gave the orange today, it would mean that she realized her mistake. If she didn't give it, it would be petty bourgeois style, haha... She really has evil intentions.
If it had been the ten-year revolution, this old guy would have definitely been an activist and a troublemaker.
It's been a while since I met someone who came to my doorstep to be scolded. Not to mention, Gu Mingyue was a little excited. She asked inexplicably, "Then what do you think I should do? Should I give you the orange to eat?"
