Chapter 235 235. Goodbye Old Friend

The letters from the two parties were sent away, and each received a reply in about 20 days.

The reply letter received by Lao Yue's family contained many contents, but there was only one important point, that is, the third sister's wedding date was confirmed on October [-]nd of this year.

After reading the third sister's letter, Yue Wenxuan asked, "Mom, third sister will get married on October [-]nd, and there are still nearly two months left. Who do you think will come over?"

Wang Liying looked at her wife, "It would be best if your dad could come over, but I don't know if your dad can spare time to come."

Yue Guangping was silent for a moment, then said: "Tomorrow I will discuss this matter with the leader to see if I can ask for a leave of absence, but I guess it will be too much.

The mobilization meeting was only held in the factory last week. The superior department assigned important tasks to our factory and asked us to work hard for [-] days.

I asked for leave at this time, and it took a long time. Counting the time lost on the round trip, I would have to ask for ten days off, and the leader could not agree more. "

After saying these words, Yue Guangping had a sad expression on his face.

The third daughter went to the Corps in the countryside, and now he is going to get married in another place. Of course, he is worried and wants to go and have a look, but the actual situation may not allow it, which makes him in a dilemma.

Hearing what Dad said, Yue Wenxuan felt that Dad would most likely not be able to ask for leave, so he said:
"Since I know that there are nine out of ten chances that I won't be able to invite you, I think it's better not to ask the leader, so as not to be rejected, and my father and the leader will not look good.

Why don't I go, I haven't accepted a performance invitation from a non-local unit for a while, and it's not appropriate to stay in the unit like this all the time.

Since I went to perform in the Northeast last time, there have been more and more companies in the Northeast that have invited me to perform, and there must be more than [-] companies in the Northeast.

I looked up the address later, and selected a few nearby, just in time for work and family matters. "

The old couple can rest assured that the son can go there.

Yue Guangping also really wanted to take a trip, even if there was only half hope, he would definitely try to fight for it, but in the current situation, it was almost impossible.

As my son said, if he insists on asking for leave, I'm afraid he won't be approved in the end, and it won't look good.

If his son couldn't go, he had to fight for it no matter what. Since his son could make a trip, he stopped thinking about it.

After deciding to let my son go this trip, we will not discuss this topic, Wang Liying continued:

"It's inconvenient for the third girl to get married in the Northeast. You guys say how should I give the dowry?"

"We don't even need the tickets in Shanghai, and we don't have any local tickets in the Northeast, so we don't need to prepare tickets. We can only give as much money as possible to make up for it."

"If money is given, how much should be given?"

On such a major matter, Wang Liying never thought of making decisions by herself, and finally had to let her wife make up her mind.

"If we followed our family's previous conditions, at most we could prepare 200 yuan for her, and let her bring all the dowry gifts of 120 yuan.

Now that our family's conditions are better, it's not easy to lose Sanya.

Of the girls in our family, the eldest is the one who has paid the most for the family, followed by the third girl.

These children are all good, but the third girl is the most diligent and does the most work, this must be admitted.

Let’s not talk about going to the Corps in the countryside. After all, this is a national policy. Who made her catch up? There is no way to do it. "

Speaking of this, Yue Guangping was silent for a moment, thought it over in his mind, and finally said:
"After school, the third girl didn't go to work, but she was quick. Even if she made matchboxes at home, she still had more than 20 yuan a month.

In this regard, she can be regarded as a contribution to the family, but she has spent a lot of money in school all these years.

I say these not to care about anything, but to try to be fair and just.

I have seen and remembered the contribution of every child in the family to the family.

It is a big event for a child to get married. I want to give the best to my child, but my ability is limited, especially when there are several more in the future.

I can't spend all the money on the older ones, and it's not a problem when the younger ones get married and can't afford the money. "

Everyone in the family is here, the eldest sister is married, and the two younger ones are still in school. They are pure-hearted and don't care about these things at all.

The fourth sister first expressed her attitude: "Dad, you are the head of the family, you can give as much as you want, we have no objection.

My family supported me through high school and found me such a good job. I am already satisfied.

When I get married, even if I have nothing, I won't complain a bit.

I'm telling the truth, you don't have to consider our feelings, you can just make up your own mind. "

The second sister also said: "I have no objection either. When I get married, I don't need any dowry, as long as my parents don't object."

Yue Guangping glared at his second daughter, and said firmly: "Even if you don't want any dowry, don't even think about marrying that Fan Qingping.

Just stop thinking about it, and find a suitable one as soon as possible, your mother and I will not agree. "

"Anyway, I don't like anyone except her. If you don't agree for a day, then I'll stay at home for one more day. I'm not in a hurry to get married.

In fact, I don't want to get married at all. It would be great if I could stay with my parents and never marry for the rest of my life. "

Yue Xianglan replied softly.

Because of the matter of getting married, Yue Xianglan has been fighting with her parents for several months, and both sides are very firm, and no one can convince the other.

At the beginning, other people would chime in according to their own attitudes. After arguing countless times, there was no result. Now that this topic is brought up, no one is willing to intervene.

Although there has been no result yet, except for the old couple, the children have already decided in their hearts that they will eventually follow Yue Xianglan's wishes.

The reason is that Yue Xianglan is too stubborn!
Nine cows can't pull back on the things she believes in. If her attitude is not so firm, it may make her change her mind.

But on this matter, Yue Xianglan has always been very firm, unless something happened to Fan Qingping that day, it would be impossible for her to change her mind.

The old couple has actually recognized this point, but out of a sense of responsibility for their daughter, they don't want to let go easily.

Parents and Yue Xianglan's attitudes are very firm, and Yue Xianglan's marriage may still be difficult.

"Then you should be an old girl at home. When your brother marries a wife, see if she can tolerate you?"

There was no result in the quarrel, Yue Guangping glared at his second daughter, and continued:

"Since the two of you have no objections, then I'll make the decision. In addition to the 120 yuan bride price I brought back to her, I will give her another [-] yuan as a dowry.

Tickets on the Shanghai side can't be used on the Northeast side either, so the 400 yuan given isn't too much. "

Yue Wenxuan interjected: "How about this, I'll add another 100 yuan to make it 500 yuan, which sounds better.

In addition, when I see Sister San, I will ask her if she needs anything else, such as radios and bicycles.

If she wants it, then I will find a friend to think of a way to get her the ticket as much as possible. "

The last time Yue Wenxuan went to the Northeast, he had already given the third sister and the fifth sister a watch ticket. Now that they are getting married and buying a dowry, they definitely don’t need a watch ticket.

Sewing tickets should not be needed either.Although the third sister is very diligent, but because the elder sister is already a seamstress in the family, the third sister has never done sewing and mending, and she does not know how to use a sewing machine.

More importantly, the third sister is not interested in tailoring clothes, and Yue Wenxuan guesses that she will not consider buying a sewing machine.

If the third sister wants to buy a radio and a bicycle, it should not be difficult for Yue Wenxuan to exchange two tickets for her.

He has too many bills in his hand. Although they are basically local in Shanghai, there are also some bills that are common across the country, such as national food stamps and military cloth stamps.If he exchanged these bills for radio air tickets and bicycle tickets, he would surely get them too.

If someone from the Northeast happens to come to Shanghai on business, other local bills in his hand can also be exchanged.

When foreigners come to Shanghai on business, they will inevitably buy some local things, but due to the lack of tickets, the things they can buy are limited.

It shouldn't be difficult for Yue Wenxuan to exchange the local ticket in Shanghai for the ticket in the Northeast region.

After all, most tickets are valid for one year, and this time is not too short. The time is extended to one year. During this time period, there must be many people who have the opportunity to travel.

When the eldest sister got married, Yue Wenxuan did not reduce the subsidy. This time the third sister got married, she would definitely not treat one more favorably than another.

Regarding this point, Yue Yunxuan's parents were already mentally prepared.

This time Wang Liying didn't nag her son's extravagance, but just warned:

"You don't need to rely on your third elder sister for everything, it's almost enough.

If it is not easy to change the bills in other places, don't force it, the money from the family is already quite a lot, and with such a thick wedding dowry, your third elder sister is already enough to have face. "

Wang Liying still felt that the dowry for the third girl was a bit too much. After saying this, she couldn't help but said:

"People are contented. If this was done a year ago, such a good thing would never have been thought of. Marrying allows her to take away the bride price, and it is considered worthy of her."

Yue Guangping, the head of the family, made the final decision, so the dowry matter was settled.

Although the eldest sister, second sister and fourth sister did not give money directly, they each prepared a heart.

And they are all very practical wedding supplies, not clothes, shoes, etc., but wool, towels and quilts.

After shopping, everyone spent almost 50 yuan.

It's not easy to ask for leave at Lao Ding's house, mainly because they are all on duty, and the time for leave is too long, so it's really not easy to approve leave.

In the end, Papa Ding got the leave. Yue Wenxuan and Ding Wanchun got on the train together, and they arrived at Ding Jimin's military camp on September 30th.

Seeing Ding Jimin again, Yue Wenxuan found that his mental outlook had changed greatly, with a smile on his face, every cell in his body revealed a burst of joy.

Marriage is relatively early in this era. Ding Jimin, an older bachelor, has long been looking forward to the day of marriage. Now that his wish has finally come true, no wonder he is so excited.

Yue Wenxuan was going to the third sister's farm, so he didn't stop much, and after talking for a while, he left in a hurry.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when Yue Wenxuan arrived at the farm.

It was less than a year since Yue Wenxuan last performed at the farm, and the cadres and employees of the farm still remembered his appearance firmly. When they saw Yue Wenxuan appear, everyone greeted him warmly.

Occasionally, I would stop to chat with some familiar people.

He stopped and stopped along the way, which wasted a lot of time. Before he entered the office area of ​​the field department, the third sister, Yue Xiangzhu, came out together with Tang Bingquan, the chief of the publicity department.

Far away, Tang Bingquan said with a smile on his face: "I guess you should be here in the next two days. In order to welcome you, a great singer, to come again, the cafeteria was ready three days ago.

Flying dragon, mandarin fish, pheasant, venison, these are all available. Director Liu knew that you were coming, so he attached great importance to it. After a phone call, he finally bought you a pair of bear paws. This time you are lucky. "

Yue Wenxuan was pleasantly surprised that there were still bear paws to eat when he came to the farm this time.

In March 89, the "Wild Animal Protection Law" was formally implemented. After the protection of wild animals began, bear's paws could no longer be eaten through normal means.

Even though it is not illegal to eat bear's paws nowadays, because bear's paws are rare, ordinary people can't easily eat them.

In order to welcome his arrival, Director Liu even prepared a pair of bear paws for him. This kindness is deep enough.

Of course, it's not enough to move Yue Wenxuan, but he just thinks it's very face-saving.

If this pair of bear paws were bought by Tang Bingquan privately, and he was invited to eat at home, then he would be very touched.

But this pair of bear paws was bought by Zhang Changchang Liu, and it was used for entertainment at public expense, so his intentions were not so deep.

After all, his relationship with Director Liu is only superficial, not as close as that of Tang Bingquan.

Although this pair of bear paws is nominally used to entertain him, but everyone eats it together, maybe the leader is greedy, and specially bought it in the name of entertaining him. If he is moved by this, it is really in vain. Live these lifetimes.

"Director Liu is too polite. When I go back to eat, I have to toast him a few more glasses to show my gratitude."

Tang Bingquan laughed and said: "Your drinking capacity has been exposed, and Director Liu will definitely not be fooled this time.

Director Liu has already said that this time to entertain you, we mainly eat meat. As for drinking, we just have to make sense of it. We are all good friends, and this time we will not fight for wine. "

Yue Wenxuan pretended to be disappointed and said: "Okay, this is your home game after all, I'm just a guest, I can only do as I please, when I go back to Shanghai, how to drink, you have to listen to me."

"Don't scare people. If you say that, the next time Director Liu and I go to Shanghai to sit and drink with you, we can only lie about gastric ulcers and say that we won't drink."

Yue Wenxuan laughed and said, "When you people from the Northeast come to our magical capital, you can't do without drinking, and if you don't treat you well, you won't be enough friends."
