Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

"Zhao Meizhi, be careful with your words. It's not something that anyone can tell with their eyes whether my little brother and his wife are a good match.

We should keep our own business to ourselves. If you dare to bring anything dirty or smelly to our Xie family again, I will go to the street office to complain."

Wu Zhaodi shouted at the top of her voice, and her words were particularly courageous, directly pulling the Xie family, which was on the edge, to the center.

Shen Yao opened her mouth into an O shape. She never expected that the first person from the Xie family who couldn't help but jump out was not the efficient Tian Na nor the outspoken Wang Yanyan, but the seemingly weak and vulnerable Wu Zhaodi.

Shen Yao: ...I don't know what's going on, but those presumptuous ideas she had inferred from the name might be very different from the person himself.

"Wu Zhaodi, what are you talking about? How did I take care of your Xie family?" Zhao Meizhi was obviously afraid. The words that could provoke others before sounded weak in front of Wu Zhaodi.

Seeing that Zhao Meizhi was bullying the weak and fearing the strong, others began to criticize her.

When Qian Jiangang saw Cheng Xue going out, he was like a hungry wolf seeing fresh meat, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and bite it.

"Sister Zhao, Xiaoxue and I are innocent, and Xie Ci'an is getting married soon.

You lied and affected the Xie family's marriage, Auntie Tian will not let you go."

After hearing this, Qian Jiangang's biological mother Miao Cuilan quickly reached out and patted her eldest son, "Don't talk nonsense."

Qian Jiangang pushed her away and said, "Mom, what nonsense am I talking about? So many people from the Xie family came to eat today, they just want to have some fun because they are getting married soon.

You have to talk to Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng about Xiaoxue and I. "

Qian Jiangang spoke the last words anxiously, he really liked Cheng Xue.

But Cheng Xue was blocked by Xie Ci'an in front and other colleagues from the machinery factory behind, so he never had any chance.

Now that we have finally waited for Xie Ci'an to get married, Uncle Cheng has insisted on only accepting women who will marry into his family. We can't miss it!

Miao Cuilan: ...

"Go back to the house, get back to your house right now," Miao Cuilan twisted Qian Jiangang's ear and dragged him into the house, while calling Qian Dacheng and his other two sons to come in.

"You don't know how to eat the delicious meal. Who will serve you when it gets cold?

Come in and have dinner with me. Although our Qian family is not rich, everyone in our family is a strong man. Don’t even think about marrying into our family and forgetting your roots…”

Miao Cuilan's voice was so loud that it could be heard from two miles away. Apart from anything else, the faces of the Cheng family members standing opposite the Qian family were all unhappy.

Especially the person involved, Cheng Xue, lived up to her name, her pretty face looked like snow and hail.

The Qian and Cheng families left one after another, and the remaining Zhao Meizhi and Zhou's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law cursed at each other for a few words before leaving.

The conflict caused by a piece of meat ended in such an anticlimactic way.

Oh, it’s not over yet.

After the Xie and Shen families returned to their houses and calmed down, a new round of quarrels broke out in the Zhou family.

Shen Yao didn't hear it very clearly. It seemed to be related to the child secretly eating meat when the adults were not around?

"Sister, Tiedan didn't eat that piece of meat. Zhou Erni lied to her. She ate it herself and only gave Tiedan a small piece."

"No, no, I saw Zhou Erni gave Li Laibao another piece."

Shen Ning and Shen Jin followed Shen Yao on the left and right like protectors.

"You guys know about this? It sounds like it has something to do with Zhou Erni."

Unexpectedly, her own brother and sister-in-law also saw the inside story. Shen Yao lowered her head and smiled, and felt that the courtyard was more lively.

They only took the time to eat a meal when they saw a big show.

"Yaoyao, when you get married, grandma will come to see you when she has time."

Grandma Zhou took care of Shen Yao and didn't feel tired at all after taking a break for half a day.

Shen Yao said seriously, "I will give grandma a separate key, and we can go there anytime."

Just watch the fun. After all, Grandma Zhou is a retired employee. She has plenty of time except for a lot of things.

"Okay, if you get pregnant, grandma can still take care of you.

Don't worry, your mother gave birth to the three of you, and it was all arranged by your grandma.

Just take care of the pregnancy, and leave the rest to me, I guarantee it will be fine."

Grandma Zhou suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with taking the key to her granddaughter's house.

The young couple is in love with each other, but the child doesn't come easily.

Since I have so much rich experience, I should contribute more to my children and grandchildren.

The meal between the Shen family and the Xie family made both sides very satisfied.

After the New Year, the year came to 1969. Shen Yao had enough of his vacation and officially returned to the cannery.

The winter snow slowly melted as the weather warmed up, and the dry branches on both sides of the street also sprouted tender green buds without anyone noticing.

On the streets and alleys, people go out and change their cotton-padded jackets into thin single clothes.

In such an atmosphere, the wedding of Shen Yao and Xie Ci'an is gradually approaching.

"Xiaoyao"

"Sister Li"

After her maternity leave, Li Nian, who had already officially returned to work, smiled and waved to Shen Yao.

"This is a little gift from me. It's not expensive. Please keep it for yourself."

Li Nian handed Shen Yao a wrapped handkerchief, a regular blue and white striped style.

"Sister Li, you..."

Shen Yao pushed back unconsciously twice. Seeing that Li Nian was really firm, she simply agreed to go back and get some Chinese herbal prescriptions that would help increase milk production.

Nowadays, breast milk is considered the best way to raise children. Li Nian's breast milk production has always been low, and now it is increasingly unable to supply her fat daughter.

"Will it cause you trouble?" Li Nian rubbed his palms embarrassedly.

She had tried various methods privately, including making crucian carp soup, pig's trotter soup, and stewing chicken soup, but none of them worked.

"What's the trouble? I just need to ask Sister Li to keep this a secret for the time being. The Chinese Medicine Hospital is sensitive and it's hard to tell anyone about it."

The situation has been tense in recent years, and everyone understands it.

Li Nian waved her hands repeatedly to show that she understood, "Don't worry, I'm tight-lipped."

Some things can be boasted about, but some things must be kept in your heart and not revealed to anyone else.

For example, Li Nianhuai's child, except for her and Lao Li, no one else knows how he came about, including both sets of parents, in order to reduce trouble.

Otherwise, who knows if there will be people who say something unintentionally but listen to it with intent.

Shen Yao smiled and nodded, then chatted with Li Nian for a few more words before they parted ways.

After going to the parking lot and pushing her bicycle away, Shen Yao simply found a shady place and opened the handkerchief in her hand.

What caught my eye were two watch tickets and a sewing ticket.

Shen Yao: ...As expected of you, you are so rich. You really have a treasure.

In addition to a few large items, there are quite a few small items, generally daily necessities coupons, which can be used to buy some pots, pans, and various toiletries.

Oh, there’s also a cigarette coupon here, which will come in handy when we get the marriage certificate and hold the wedding banquet.

"Leave it to Uncle Shen. The factory gave me some. Take some if you need it.

We will keep the ones we don’t need and arrange for you to buy them later.”

Xie Ci'an smiled and handed Shen Yao a stack of tickets, which looked even thicker.

Shen Yao:......

Having never fought such a wealthy battle before, Shen Yao was eager to make their little home perfect.

In mid-March, the two of them each obtained their household registration and went directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage.

Not to mention, the marriage certificate in the 1970s was not a small book like the ones in later generations, but a certificate similar to an award certificate.

There is no photo of them on it, only their name and date of birth, with the seal of the Civil Affairs Bureau below.

Shen Yao looked from left to right, and finally handed it to Xie Ci'an, "We'll buy a frame and put it away when the time comes."

Xie Ci'an smiled and nodded, "Let's go to the photo studio?"

At that time, photo studios were public businesses, and the price of a large-inch photo ranged from 50 cents to one dollar.

Shen Yao thought about it and felt that it was a bit awkward to hang black and white photos in the room. "Let's take two small photos first, and then we can take more when we have the chance."

But we have to wait a while, at least colored tapes appeared and became popular on a large scale in the 1980s and 1990s.

As they were talking, the two of them turned and went to a photo studio not far from the Civil Affairs Bureau.

After taking two full-length and half-length photos, they set a time to pick them up, left 80 cents for the fee, and then went to the department store to buy furniture.

Like the shoe cabinet, dressing table, wardrobe, clothes rack, desk, etc. that Shen Yao mentioned before, Xie Ci'an has already hired an experienced carpenter to help build them.

What they come here to buy now are some household tools that they will use.

Such as radio, sewing machine, table fan, fabric curtains, washbasin, thermos, towels, bedding, quilt covers, pillowcases and so on.

The two of them also spent two hundred and forty dollars to buy two Shanghai brand mechanical watches at the counter.

"Now, we two are really poor."

The money saved by Shen Yao and the money given by Xie Ci'an were all spent by them.

Did you think you were done buying this? No, no, no, it was just because Shen Yao had no money left, so she had to stop for the time being.

Reaching out and ruffling Shen Yao's hair, Xie Ci'an said that he still had money, "We'll continue buying when we go out next week."

Isn't money meant to be spent? Xie Ci'an has been working for several years. Apart from the ten yuan he needs to pay Tian Na for food and ten yuan as a gift every month, he keeps the rest.

The money Shen Yao just spent was a drop in the bucket for Xie Ci'an.

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows, "Comrade Xie, you must not develop a wasteful lifestyle.

Let’s buy it after we have the wedding banquet, and then we can collect some gift money.”

Shen Yao, who was possessed by the money-grubber, felt that his brain was working very fast.

Although she had only worked in the cannery for a little over half a year, she had a lot of connections, so she would be able to make some money back from this marriage.

Xie Ci'an nodded in agreement, "It's the same here, everyone is looking forward to my marriage."

Now that he had finally complied with their wishes, he had to show some appreciation.

The newlywed couple smiled at each other.

As expected, she/he is the person she/he likes, they have exactly the same thoughts and ideas.

……

"Sister Zhou, please remember to come to the wedding on March 25th."

"Sister Li, March 25th. I'm a bit pressed for time as I'm busy later on."

"Brother Wang, on March 25th, at the innermost house at No. 5 Fengshou Hutong."

"Xiao Deng, March 25th, ..."

In the cannery of the cannery, Shen Yao quickly finished her meal and started talking to someone.

It was just these two sentences that she repeated over and over again. To put it simply, she was going to hold a wedding banquet on March 25th, and everyone had to contribute their manpower and effort to be there.

That day was also the weekend at the cannery, and everyone had a day off.

Those who were generous like Zhou Shujuan and Li Nian agreed immediately, while those who were shy like Xiao Deng and Xiao Pan did not forget to congratulate Shen Yao on her wedding.

"Xiao Shen, sit down and take a rest when you are done with your work," Zhou Shujuan clapped her hands and asked with a smile what he wanted. She would then give him the gift directly so Shen Yao wouldn't have to buy it again.

In this era, gifts do not just refer to money, but also various items.

For example, the most common ones are a pair of spittoons, a pair of thermoses, and a pair of red mandarin duck pillowcases, which are all common and good gifts.

"Sister Zhou, just show up, don't be polite."

Everything that needed to be purchased has been purchased, and now the ear room has been decorated and is waiting for the young couple Shen Yao and Xie Ci'an to move in.

Zhou Shujuan smiled cheerfully, "Why are you being polite? I see you don't need anything. I'll buy it for you when the time comes."

Spring is here, and it's the season change in department stores. It seems that young girls like to dress up, so they might as well buy some vanishing cream, lipstick, or silk scarves. Xiao Shen has fair skin and a good look, so she's just the right girl for the occasion.

Zhou Shujuan pondered in her heart, and smiled even more brightly at Shen Yao.

Otherwise, why do people say that good relationships are beneficial when getting married?

When Shen Yao got married this time, not to mention her own relatives and Xie Ci'an's machinery factory, the cannery and Zhao Yueyue alone gave Shen Yao nearly a hundred yuan in gifts.

Shen Yao was wearing a red dress and her hair was tied up in a beautiful bun behind her head.

It was getting dark outside, and the crowds that had come to enjoy the day dispersed.

Sitting cross-legged on a wooden bed embroidered with a bright red mandarin duck quilt, Shen Yao lowered her head and counted the gift money in her hand.

"One hundred? One hundred and fifty cents? One hundred?"

Shen Yao's eyes were surprisingly bright, especially when she looked at Xie Ci'an, who was wearing a red coat, which made his handsome features even more striking.

Xie Ci'an was slightly stunned, his Adam's apple below his neck slid slightly, and his voice was hoarse, "What's wrong?"

Shen Yao sighed, "The gift money is too generous, it's all a debt of gratitude."

Do you think it is just taking advantage? Wrong, wrong, wrong. This is the link between the two parties.

"tired?"

Xie Ci'an looked at Shen Yao tenderly and moved closer to her.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao licked the corner of her mouth unconsciously. She was indeed a little tired.

But this kind of tiredness was not that kind of tiredness. It could only be said that she was a little hungry.

Putting her arms around Xie Ci'an's neck, Shen Yao walked herself in front of him.

The atmosphere around them gradually became ambiguous. Neither of them moved first, but the increasingly close distance between them made their hearts beat faster.

The beautiful mandarin ducks were lifted up and down, and the turned-on bedside lamp was warm and soft.

Shen Yao felt like a small boat, drifting in a storm.

Occasionally I feel tired and sleepy, but soon I am swept away by a new round of energy.

Shen Yao: ...Are young people so strong? Why is she so tired even though she is healthy?

I really don't understand why women are the ones who get tired when doing this kind of thing.

She felt a little dazed and confused. When Shen Yao regained consciousness, it was already bright outside.

Covering her mouth and yawning delicately, Shen Yao turned over and rolled into Xie Ci'an's arms.

Fortunately, I had foresight and saved up my vacation time until now.

Otherwise, she will experience today what it means to have a short night without early morning attendance.
