"Eh? What did you say?"
Xu Yin picked her ears and couldn't believe it.
Although she has memories of Comrade Xiaojin from N lifetimes, he does not.
The two of them had only met twice, at best, and now they came to propose?
Xu Yin wanted to go up and touch his forehead and ask him: Don't you have a fever?
Isn’t it said that people of this era have always been very conservative and reserved when it comes to relationships? How can you talk about dating and getting married so quickly?
"I'm serious." Cheng Shaojin looked at her. Although the tips of his ears felt as if he were having a fever, he knew very well that this was a very serious decision.
"What happened so suddenly?" Xu Yin glanced at him suspiciously. The last time they met, he at most thanked her for saving her life and didn't talk about anything else.
It’s not like he fell in love with her at first sight and fell in love with her again, right? She didn't even believe it herself.
Suddenly, she would regret it and say, "You don't want to repay my life-saving grace with your life, do you?"
"...Not entirely."
"..." Xu Yin held her forehead, "Even if you have a good impression of me because I saved you, this progress is too fast. How about we take it slow and treat each other like friends first... "
"no."
Take your time, her family will arrange a marriage for her, and then she won't be able to get rid of it even if she wants to.
Xu Yin couldn't help but have a headache.
If it hadn't been for Comrade Xiaojin, she would have given him a big mouth.
Is there any truth in repaying the favor by offering my body to her, but not allowing her to refuse?
"The progress is actually not very fast. I have a comrade who brought his wife back home when he went home. Before they got married, they had never even met. At least we have met twice. You listen to me, I will not harm you." He solemnly stated, "I will be good to you. You can do whatever you want after marriage, and I will not interfere with any of your decisions."
"..."
The more Xu Yin listened, the more confused she became.
He said this as if he was the benefactor who came to save him from the fire and water.
She tilted her head and looked at him, seriously considering his proposal.
It seems good to marry him, have a relationship with him, and have a relationship where marriage comes first and love comes later.
Speaking of which, at this time, she is almost old enough to get married. If you want to be single, you may have to fight with your family. After all, we are still in the age of arranged marriages.
In the original text, the original person never married until her death. It was not that she was unwilling subjectively, but that she was not allowed to do so objectively.
In an era when there was not enough food to eat, an unmarried girl was responsible for raising three nephews. Marrying her was equivalent to marrying four people. No matter how capable she was, no one would dare to take this risk.
One delay, two delays, and you become an old girl.
Now, she doesn't have three nephews to raise, and they are of the right age. Will her family not give her a partner? What good things are you thinking about?
Thinking of this, Xu Yin no longer hesitated, stretched out her hand and shook Cheng Shaojin's hand:
"Sure! Then we will be revolutionary partners from now on! Please take good care of me for the rest of my life!"
In this way, Xu Yin and Cheng Shaojin became revolutionary partners.
After the news spread, the single guys in the reclamation team were dumbfounded.
What? Xu Yin and Cheng Shaojin are getting married? when did it happen?
They stayed with Xu Yin every day, working hand in hand on the spring plowing land, wielding hoes and rakes to open up wasteland and cultivate the land. There was no news at all that these two were about to get married?
"Let me tell you, the guy named Cheng is coming to our place every two days. He must have bad intentions. He is a big-tailed wolf." Chen Daming said angrily.
Comrade Xu Yin, who was beautiful, intelligent, hard-working and capable, was snatched away by Cheng Shaojin's big-tailed wolf.
Did you say that the good news will not flow to outsiders?
Zhou Haijun also felt depressed for a while.
When he met the wolf, Xu Yin not only saved him, but also helped him straighten his bones. At that moment, he admitted that he was attracted to her.
But before he could find a chance to express his love, someone took advantage of him.
After all, fate was not on his side.
At this moment, the male compatriots collectively turned into lemon spirits. When they saw Cheng Shaojin, their eyes turned sour and they glared at him fiercely, not even bothering to hide it.
The female compatriots were even more curious about the process: "Xu Yin, please tell me honestly, have you known Comrade Cheng for a long time? Every time he comes, he actually comes to see you, right? You hide it really well!"
Xu Yin smiled and said nothing, let them continue this beautiful misunderstanding!
Cheng Shaojin acted quickly and returned to the station to submit the marriage application on the same day.
When the approval report came out, they had just finished their spring plowing, and the land reclamation team had a relatively light task. After discussion, the two decided to hold the wedding on the sunny, glorious and lively May Day Labor Day.
It's a wedding, but it looks more like a party.
Put a table of wine, share a handful of candies, and treat your comrades and companions to a casual meal, and you're considered married.
The wedding room was located in the dormitory of Cheng Shaojin's work unit, and the organization approved a single dormitory for him.
Not to be outdone, Captain Fu also made a single room for Xu Yin at the Reclamation Team's base camp. He held Xu Yin's hand and said from the bottom of his heart: "Xiao Xu, the Reclamation Team cannot do without you!"
This is true.
Without Xu Yin, how could the 50 members of the Yuanshan team complete the reclamation of two to three thousand acres a year?
Xu Yin also really wanted to contribute to the granary of the motherland, so she decided to live with the reclamation team and wait for the slack to go to the station to accompany Cheng Shaojin. And Cheng Shaojin can come to Hewozitun to accompany her after his retirement.
The two agreed happily.
"Your father-in-law and mother-in-law wrote a letter. This is a meeting gift for you." Cheng Shaojin showed Xu Yin the letter sent by her parents and gave her the twenty yuan in the letter directly. "When you are free from work, I have saved up enough family leave, so I will take you to see them."
Xu Yin held the brand-new stack of woolen tickets and glanced at him with a half-smile.
These days, it is considered a good condition to have four major items including a bed, washbasin, hot water bottle, and spittoon for your wedding.
The total of these four items cost almost fifteen yuan. The second elder of the Cheng family sent twenty yuan, of which five yuan was a meeting gift for Xu Yin, the daughter-in-law.
But Cheng Shaojin gave her all twenty yuan. He used his own allowance for the four major wedding items. If it was not enough, he asked his comrades to borrow some.
This man, no matter which life he lived in, always gave her enough trust with a fiery and sincere heart.
After reading the letter from his parents, Xu Yin thought about how to find out how to contact the old Xu family.
Otherwise, when she goes back next time, her family doesn’t know that she is married and they still want to find a matchmaker to introduce her to a partner, which would be a joke.
Unexpectedly, her letter home had not yet been sent, and her hometown sent a telegram before her.
The exact address of her land reclamation was not actually known to the old Xu family. It was said that Xu Cui helped her by asking the man of the family to find out through his connections.
In order to save money, the telegram contained only a few words: Something happened at home, please come home soon!
