Hello 1983

Those who came to accompany the ceremony smoked a cigarette, and then took out one or several banknotes from their pockets, most of which were one piece, with the female tractor driver driving a tractor on the front.

"Big Zhang Luo, three yuan as a congratulatory gift!"

The old accountant in the village is in charge of the money, and with a shout, the old branch secretary will start writing.

"Boss, two dollars!"

"Zhang pole, one piece!"

"Uncle kidnapper, Wu Yuan!"

Five yuan is considered a big gift.

"Shan Xingniang, Wu Yuan!"

The old accountant collected five yuan, and the old branch secretary looked up at the young woman holding Shanxing: "Mother Shanxing, what is your name?"

People in the village seldom call by their official names, but as a result, they forget their official names.

"Qian Yuzhen."

Today's Shan Xingniang is obviously in a normal state. She is 25 or six years old, has delicate features, and is quite attractive.

The clothes are also very clean, which can also be seen from Shan Xing.

Because this little girl, like Liu Qingshan's fourth sister, has never had lice in her hair, and there are no white gnats either.

The so-called lice are lice eggs, which are white and oval in shape.

At that time, the sanitation conditions in the countryside were poor, and there were few changes of clothes, so many children, especially girls with long hair, if they didn't wash their hair frequently, their heads would be covered with white scorpions, which made people's scalp numb.

The old branch secretary nodded: "Remember, Yuzhen, take Shan Xing to the table."

The villagers still took good care of this poor educated youth. Even a lazy guy like Zhang Ganzi once helped carry water.

However, it's hard to say whether he has other thoughts.

As a result, Zhang Ganzi was scolded and kicked a few times by the old branch secretary, and he never dared to go again.

There are less than [-] households in total, and it will not take long to write the gift accounts. After comparing the accounts with the collected money, there is no difference, and they are ready to close the stalls.

Beep beep!There was a sound of a car horn from behind the room, and immediately, the little dolls who were eating candy in the room ran out.

These days, in a small mountain village like Jiapigou, it is not always possible to see a motor vehicle all year round.

The old branch secretary rushed out to greet him, and said to Grandpa Kidnap next to him, "Brother Kidnap, this is Army Day, so the Ministry of Human Armed Forces must have come to see you, an old combat hero."

The kidnapped grandpa limped: "They only come during the Chinese New Year. Could it be that the regulations have been changed this year?"

"It's possible. The newspapers are talking about reform every day."

The old branch secretary replied.

Looking outside, sure enough, there was a military green jeep, commonly known as 212, parked on the road.

A group of children had already surrounded the jeep, and Da Zhangluo was still yelling: "Si Huzi, don't stab it with sticks. The carport is made of canvas. If you poke a hole, you will stick it up!"

The children all took a few steps back in fright, the car door opened, and several people got out of the car one after another.

"It's not from the People's Armed Forces Department." Grandpa Kidnap judged when he saw the clothes of these people.

"It's Secretary Sun of the commune." The old branch secretary hurried through the crowd and went up to shake hands: "Secretary Sun is here, welcome!"

Secretary Sun Hongtao was in his 40s, with rough and dark skin. He was wearing a blue cloth jacket with his arms open, revealing his washed white undershirt. big difference.

He stretched out his rough hands, grabbed the hand of the old branch secretary and shook it: "Old Zhang, your village is very lively, who will hold the wedding?"

Then, he introduced a young man wearing half sleeves beside him to the old branch secretary: "This is the county magistrate Zheng of our county."

magistrate!This is the largest cadre who has been to Jiapigou, and the villagers also let out a low exclamation.

"Major Zheng, hello, hello."

The old branch secretary and the team leader hurried up to shake hands, feeling a bit at a loss for a while, after all, the level they usually contact is the level of commune cadres.

These two still sighed in their hearts: They are so young and promising. Look at them, they are so young, they seem to be less than 30 years old, and they are now the county magistrate.

"My surname is Zheng, and I'm actually the deputy county magistrate."

It is probably not the first time that county magistrate Zheng has been misunderstood, so he explained with a smile and offered his hand.

He was wearing white half-sleeves, a belt around his waist, and his trousers were rather solid with a straight line. He was wearing a pair of leather sandals with a toe cap. He looked like a cadre at first glance.

The hair is neat and cropped, and the facial features are sharp and angular. When he smiles, he gives people a feeling of spring breeze, which immediately relieves the tension in the hearts of the old party secretary and Captain Zhang.

"County Zheng, welcome to Jiapigou to guide our work."

The old branch secretary also shook hands quickly, while Captain Zhang reported to Secretary Sun of the commune, "It's Liu Jinfeng from the village and the educated youth Gao Xuexue. They are getting married today. Please be happy, folks."

Secretary Sun thought for a while, and then asked: "Old Liu's house, is it Liu Qingshan's house?"

At this time, the commune cadres spent more than half a year in each village, so they were quite familiar with the situation.

In Jiapigou, Zhang's surname is a big family, and there are only two or three people with other surnames.

Seeing the captain nodding, Secretary Sun immediately grinned: "Haha, that's just right, County Magistrate Zheng and I, let's ask for a glass of wedding wine too!"

These words made people startled.

Hey, there are things about my family!

Liu Qingshan in the crowd couldn't squint this time, so he stood up and stretched out his hand gracefully.

"Hello County Magistrate Zheng, Hello Secretary Sun, I am Liu Qingshan. Today you two leaders are able to attend my sister and brother-in-law's wedding in spite of their busy schedules. On behalf of the whole family and the folks in Jiapigou , a warm welcome!"

The two gazes shot over at the same time, and then Secretary Sun and County Magistrate Zheng nodded slightly: What a young guy!

From the simple way of dealing with people, it can be seen that this young man is not stage fright at all, and his speech is also polite and thoughtful.

Especially a pair of eyes, clear and bright, in stark contrast to those timid gazes around.

County magistrate Zheng also showed admiration in his eyes, and the smile on his face became more cordial: "Since we are here to attend the wedding, of course we have to do as the Romans do. We all have to follow the rules here, right?"

Seeing that the old party secretary and the team leader nodded blankly, the county magistrate Zheng continued, "Okay, then, on behalf of the county government, I will take out one hundred yuan."

Secretary Sun was taken aback for a moment, then came to his senses: Haha, the new county magistrate Zheng Hongqi is quite funny.

So I also followed suit: "Then I will contribute a share, but the commune is not as good as the county, so I will pay 50 yuan."

Chapter 27 let's paddle

100 yuan!

50 yuan!

Oh my god, the courtesy members of the whole village add up, I'm afraid there are not so many, right?

The villagers were dumbfounded. After a long time, Zhang Pole, who was stalking around, muttered: "The cadres in the county and the commune are rich."

Liu Qingshan was also taken aback at first, but after thinking about it, he quickly understood:

"Thank you to the county government and the commune government for your encouragement. I really deserve it. That is something that every Chinese should do, and there is no need for rewards."

Zheng Hongqi was taken aback for a moment: Oh, this young man is not simple.

So he said with a smile: "My fellow countrymen, Comrade Liu Qingshan, you helped the foreign guests when you were in the provincial capital, and won glory for our country, and even our Bishui County and Qingshan Commune. It's a good job!"

Zheng Hongqi clenched his fists and continued: "So after research, the county and the commune gave Comrade Liu Qingshan a material reward. Everyone said, should it be?"

"should!"

There was naturally a roar of noise around.

For such a good thing, Liu Qingshan just followed the procedure and was polite, of course he would not really refuse.

He was humble again, and thanked all aspects of training, even the leaders of the commune, the village party secretary, and the captain's uncle, all brought along, and everyone was very happy.

Finally, he took the cash and the certificate, and then held the certificate, and took a photo with the county magistrate Zheng, Secretary Sun, the old party secretary, Captain Zhang and others.

That's right, a reporter from the county also followed.

Hearing the crisp sound of clicking, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but feel moved: he was worried about where to find the camera, didn't this come to the door?

Letting the guests into the house, the family members were both nervous and excited. The county magistrate has come, and I feel really honored, but I am a little worried about the bad reception.

Even Da Zhangluo was stupefied, he didn't know what to do, he had never received such a big leader before.

It was still Liu Qingshan who took his time and introduced his family briefly, then asked the eldest sister to light cigarettes for the guests, and the eldest brother-in-law to pour tea for the guests.

"The bride must smoke when she lights up!"

Secretary Sun clicked his lips cheerfully and asked Liu Jinfeng to light the cigarette.

Zheng Hongqi took a look, and followed suit. As a result, he coughed so much that he didn't smoke.

However, he still sent blessings: "Ahem, congratulations, work hard in the future, and get rich as soon as possible."

Unexpectedly, Gao Wenxue was a one-track mind. After pouring tea to the guests, he said: "I can't work well, so I can't do farm work."

One sentence left the scene cold, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

The eldest brother-in-law's EQ still needs to be improved!

Liu Qingshan quickly explained with a smile: "My brother-in-law is a writer. He just wrote a novella and submitted it to Harvest Magazine. The writing is very good, not worse than Lu Yao's life."

"Don't dare, the gap is still very big, I have to continue to learn."

Gao Wenxue pushed up his glasses. It wasn't that he was modest and suddenly able to speak, but that he had thought so in his heart.

"Oh, okay, our Bishui County is going to produce a great writer."

Zheng Hongqi looked at Gao Wenxue with a different look. In this era, writers and poets are definitely respected and admired professions.

So, he talked about literature with Gao Wenxue.

This is Gao Wenxue's old business, and it sounds like a lot of treasures, and the mouth is endless, and the embarrassment just now is gone.

Liu Qingshan finally got away, dragged that reporter Liu outside, stuffed two packs of cigarettes into his pocket, and then expressed that he wanted to borrow a camera to take pictures of the couple.

The reporter comrade readily agreed.

It's not that two packs of cigarettes are of great use, but that someone who can become a reporter has at least some good eyesight. Obviously, County Magistrate Zheng values ​​the young man in front of him more.

Of course, such a valuable item as a camera would definitely not be trusted to be handed over to this young man, so it was reporter Liu who helped to take pictures.

There is no other way, Liu Qingshan can only look at the seagull camera with greedy eyes, thinking in his heart that he must buy one in the future.

Playing with cameras in this era is absolutely costly. The cheapest Lucky film costs 14 yuan a roll.

As for the cost of developing, one roll costs fourteen or five yuan, and one film is basically a worker's salary for one month.

I took a few photos, made an appointment to pick them up later, followed Zheng Hongqi, Sun Hongtao and others, and got up to leave. No matter how Liu Qingshan's family tried to persuade them to stay, they refused to eat.

The cadres of this era are very principled, and Liu Qingshan has no choice but to send the guests to the car and wave goodbye.

After the guests had left, the villagers became active again, and Zhang Luo was overjoyed. He waved his arms and said, "Let's eat!"

The bustling banquet finally started, four tables were placed at Liu Qingshan's house, three tables were placed at grandpa's house, four tables were placed at the front yard branch secretary's house.

The first group were mainly children from the village and elderly people. The children were impatient and stopped eating when they were full.

Da Zhang Luo was in charge of arranging the seats, while Er Biaozi and the others served the dishes with large plates on their shoulders.

In the wooden square plate, more than a dozen plates can be stacked at a time. Basically, one person can serve two tables.

The cold dishes were served first: croquettes and the like. There was also a plate of stewed pork head, and a plate of stewed rice made with potato starch, commonly known as noodles, dipped in soy sauce, which was delicious and chewy.

The stove outside the house started to cook vegetables cracklingly, and for a while, the tempting aroma filled the entire small mountain village.

"Really delicious!"

"Okay, this food is hard enough!"

"This old Liu family is grand!"

"That's right, didn't you see that the county magistrate is here..."

Everyone was eating and admiring.

From the table, you can see whether the family is stingy or a lot.

As for Liu Jinfeng and Gao Wenxue, they toasted at the table, starting with the elders first, and when it was the little one's turn, they all sat down at the table after eating.

Liu Qingshan was in charge of helping his sister and brother-in-law, and followed behind with a bottle of wine, talking a few words from time to time.

"Shan Xing'er, eat more, put the meatballs back and eat them slowly."
