A pleasant life in a courtyard

The older one and the younger one, who still had unfinished feelings for each other, were separated by their own father, with their reluctance to leave each other.

Sun Guoqing ignored Sun Xiaofang's struggle and walked quickly.

Sun Xiaofang lay on her father's shoulder and shouted to her godfather.

"Godfather, I will come back again, please wait for me."

Qiu Fanghua watched Li Xiangya wave to his goddaughter and found it funny.

As for it, it’s like we’re separated by the ends of the earth.

Here, as guests arrive one after another, the canteen space used as the wedding venue is gradually filled.

All aspects of the wedding kicked off under the auspices of Wang Kaixuan, who was in charge of the situation.

First, the work leaders of Li Xiang and Qiu Fanghua presented four volumes of "MZD Anthology" as wedding gifts to the newlyweds.

After reciting it, it was a big party, where everyone sang red songs and danced the word "loyalty" together.

The most popular wedding song at this time is "We all come from all over the world" among the quotations.

【We all come from all over the world,

Come together for a common revolutionary goal,

Our cadres must care about every soldier,

All members of the revolutionary ranks must

Care for each other, love each other, and help each other. 】

Of course, everyone should not forget the work of Li Xiang, the groom himself, and my motherland and me.

[My motherland and I cannot be separated for a moment,

Wherever I go a hymn flows

I sing to every mountain, I sing to every river,

There is a rut in the road in a small village with smoke curling up from cooking stoves. 】

When everyone sang this song in unison, Professor Hao, who was the officiant, maybe because he was too happy, or maybe because the atmosphere was so good, he actually started dancing in front of everyone.

If such an old man takes the lead, others will only become more active.

One after another of popular songs and operas, like a performance, one after another was played in the cafeteria.

It became a sea of ​​joy, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.

There is light in their eyes, and in the light there are blessings for the new couple, expectations for a better life, and gratitude for the current life.

This level of happiness lasted for an hour, and when the banquet started, everyone was even happier.

The impression and cycle of material shortages seem to run through everyone’s memories for decades.

But if we compare the 1960s with the 1950s, the 1960s are definitely better than the 1950s.

The 1970s were of course greater than the 1960s.

Take the wedding banquet as an example. Whether it will be held or not is a matter of opinion.

If it really takes off, the dishes on the table now will definitely be much richer than before.

In the 1950s, staple foods were made more and more, while the dishes and recipes were less and "fine".

The coarse-grain steamed buns and steamed buns are very big, so they are used to fill up the guests.

The dishes on the table were much shabby compared to now, and most of them were vegetarian dishes.

If the poor people don't have meat at home, they just make up for it with eggs, which is still considered a meat dish.

Even if there is meat, it is cut into extremely fine shreds and stewed in a pot. The main thing is to let everyone smell the meat.

After all, the meat, which weighs a pound, is divided among several tables, and then distributed to each person's head. Each person picks up a chopstick, and it's gone.

Eating at this time is called eating in the true sense.

Every plate is shiny and clean, and no vegetable or soup is left behind.

The idea of ​​packing leftovers is something that everyone wants to do at this time, but cannot do it.

In the 1960s, banquets were more abundant.

Of course, most poor people still adhere to the previous habits, but those who have become rich have many more choices.

Steamed buns with double noodles or white noodles are beginning to appear as staple food. Some people really want to show off, and they will add some tricks, such as Hanazhi, fried pancakes and other foods with additional seasonings.

There are still not many dishes, but the quantity has increased a lot.

When meat is still insufficient, stewed vegetables are the first choice to solve this situation.

However, there are enough side dishes at the moment, at least to ensure that each person can eat a bowl of this meaty stew.

The shape of the meat should also be sliced ​​or cubed as much as possible. If it is not enough, it is understandable to use silk.

But the specifications of our wedding banquet reached the guests' mouths. Compared with other wedding banquets, they fell behind after all.

In the 1970s, although some areas were still in poverty.

However, various materials in big cities have been basically guaranteed.

Even though every household still buys things in a rationed amount, the previous situation of being unable to buy things even if you have money and tickets rarely happens again.

In the mid-to-late 1970s, when it came to big things, everyone started to keep their mouth shut from the first six months or even a year.

With the money you save and the money you borrow, planning to have a lively wedding is a dream that most ordinary people can achieve.

Pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, fish, shrimps, just prepare money and tickets to ensure the supply is in place.

It was also at this time that everyone began to pay attention to the quantity of dishes.

I no longer just pursue eating enough, but start to develop in the direction of eating well.

Eight dishes is the most basic requirement. No matter what, you have to get these dishes together.

Apart from the dishes, if you don't get everything together, don't blame the guests for shaking their heads and going back to complain that your family is not very particular about things.

If we talk about today's expenses, there is no doubt that Li Xiang and Qiu Fanghua's wedding can be regarded as a luxurious wedding in this period.

Eight dishes were not enough, so they entrusted the canteen chef to customize twelve dishes.

Among them, there are eight meat and four vegetables, everything that flies in the sky, crawls on the ground, and swims in the water.

With this kind of specification, if someone wants to cause trouble, without a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid it's inevitable to fall into trouble.

But Li Xiang and his wife found another way and adopted the canteen system.

There are many choices, but the portions are not overwhelming.

Each person can choose between two meat and one vegetable. Whatever he wants to eat, he can ask the canteen chef to prepare it.

Without alcohol or cigarettes mixed in, it’s just a buffet meal.

Just as everyone had finished singing and dancing, they were in a good mood and were hungry. This meal tasted better than usual.

Many leaders among the guests came to attend, some from Li Xiang's side and some from Qiu Fanghua's side.

The leaders all say that this method is good, and some people who are a little careful will not be stupid enough to say sarcastic things to the leaders.

In the end, the wedding was a complete joy for the guests and the host.

A happy smile became the main theme of this wedding.

Everyone’s beautiful memory of this wedding has always been deeply imprinted in their minds.

Many years later, when a group of old people get together and talk, they still sigh.
