In this way, Shui Jianguo didn't refuse anymore. After all, it was his sister's wish. The family had dinner happily.
The next day, the couple got up early and went back to the county town to work. Shui Shangqing re-assessed the people who studied yesterday. If he felt they passed the test, he asked Accountant Feng to drive the donkey cart to the agricultural machinery factory to learn maintenance knowledge.
After all, the light will turn on, but it won't turn off when there is a malfunction. Everything is in vain, which is a big delay.
Among the people selected this time were Ershun, Feng Lengzi, Zhang Shuanzhu, Wang Dali, and two male educated youths who also passed, a total of six people.
This training lasted for half a month, and it was very hard to rush back and forth every day. But the result is pretty good. Everyone who went to study passed the exam.
Wang Liting is sweet-tongued, knows how to please, and is willing to spend money to treat guests. He stayed in the agricultural machinery factory as a temporary worker.
Several others were assigned to serve as drivers in various villages. Ershun chose Qingshui Village because, after all, he was the only one among the six who had a wife and loved his family.
All of a sudden, six people could be drivers, and the people in the village were very happy. Everyone realizes that there are many benefits to reading more.
He began to pay attention to the learning problems of the younger generation, and Feng Xiaoxiao was also sent to school by Accountant Feng to study.
After all, Bai Lu's work as a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative and her ability to drive a harvester made him realize that girls can do many things, but the key is to study more.
At the end of September, Shui Shangqing received a call from the Water Construction Party at the village committee: "Dad, Xinxin and I have chosen to hold a wedding on October 6th. Can you come to attend?"
"Of course you can, even if your elder brother and sister-in-law are at work, and Xiaosi also goes to the provincial art troupe, they may not have time."
"That's okay, as long as my parents and Bingyue can be there." Shuijian Party's requirements are not high. After all, a trip to Beijing takes time, effort, and money.
The two chatted about something else and quickly hung up the phone. After all, phone calls are not cheap.
Shui Shangqing called Shui Jianguo specifically and asked: "My second brother is planning to hold a wedding on October 6th. Can you take the next week off?"
"I shouldn't be able to take one. After all, I work in a technical position. Unless I have to travel or during the Chinese New Year, it's difficult to take such a long leave.
The supply and marketing cooperative where Bai Lu worked was very competitive. If she takes time off, there's a good chance she won't be able to keep the job.
I will give you the gift money when I go home this time. Please help me transfer it to the founding party. After all, I'm sorry that I can't attend. "
"Okay, so be it."
There was no way to call Shui Jianshe, so I could only wait for him to call and ask by the way.
When Shui Shangqing went home and told his family the good news, the old lady and Shui Bingyue were very happy.
"Those who join the party will also get married, and everyone will start a family and start a business."
"Grandma, please come with us and take a look at Tiananmen. That's the symbol of the capital."
The old lady shook her head: "I'm a lot older, so I still won't go. After all, your fifth brother, sixth brother, and seventh brother don't know whether they can ask for leave or not. And Bokang is too young to travel long distances. What if he Motion sickness is even more difficult to take care of.”
Shui Shangqing nodded: "This is indeed a very important matter. They will be back this weekend. When we go to school again, I will go with you to ask the teacher what he means."
The weekend soon came, and the three young men, five, six, and seven, were very happy to hear that their second brother was getting married. Shui Jianguo and Bai Lu also came back.
But the commune's junior high schools are very strict and rarely grant leave, let alone a week-long holiday. So in the end, the old lady, Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu and Bo Kang didn't go.
Shui Jianguo gave a gift of two hundred yuan and asked his parents to bring it to Shui Jianguo. At the time, this was a great gift.
Shui Shangqing went to buy train tickets in advance. After all, there were many people. If he didn't buy them earlier, because he couldn't buy tickets, missing the Shui Jian Party's wedding would make people think that his family was disrespectful.
Soon, the time came to October 2nd. Shui Shangqing and Liu Xuemei took Xiaoqi and Shui Bingyue to the capital by train.
Shui Bingyue had seen her fourth brother sit down, but this was the first time she sat down by herself. She and Xiao Qi talked a lot.
Because the journey was long and it would take two or three days just to take the train, Shui Shangqing bought a hard sleeper where he could lie down and rest.
He gave Bingyue all his valuables and money for safekeeping. After all, his daughter had space and these things would not be lost no matter what.
When you are out and about, the train is where the most thieves happen, so be careful at all times.
In the hearts of Liu Xuemei and Xiao Qi, Shui Bingyue is the most important. After all, the little girl is good-looking and well-behaved, and is an important target of human traffickers.
Liu Xuemei always said: "Bingyue, you must not run around. Wherever you want to go, your father and I must be with you."
"I understand, mom, don't worry." Shui Bingyue was very obedient. After all, no matter how high her strength level is, she is still a child, so it is better not to worry her mother.
Fortunately, nothing went wrong along the way. The four of them arrived in Beijing the day before the wedding, and then took a bus to the military area according to the address given by the Water Construction Party.
When Captain Li heard that his in-laws were coming, he hurried out to greet them and personally arranged accommodation for the Shui family.
"Everyone, please come home and live with me."
Shui Shangqing waved his hand: "I have a general understanding of the housing situation in the army. Your family should have just enough, so it would be more suitable for us to live in a guest house."
"That's true. Then I'll help you make arrangements, so don't refuse."
"Okay." Shui Shangqing agreed happily.
After arranging everyone, Captain Li sent out an invitation: "Let's have a meal together tonight and have a good chat. Tomorrow is the wedding of our two children. Let's get to know each other."
"No problem, we will be there."
"I will send someone to lead you when the time comes." Captain Li left with peace of mind after explaining everything.
Liu Xuemei and her husband said: "Captain Li is a very kind man."
"We are in-laws, so we naturally have to get along well. After running all the way, we quickly went to take a shower and change clothes. For safety reasons on the road, the clothes we wore were relatively shabby.
Tonight I am going to my in-laws’ house. I have to dress up beautifully and neatly so as not to embarrass the party. "Shui Shangqing arranged.
Liu Xuemei took her daughter to the bathroom together, feeling that big cities were different. There is a large bathtub and shower. The two of them took a good bath.
Liu Xuemei was wearing a white shirt and trousers, and a black woolen coat. She looked very beautiful.
Shui Bingyue was wearing a long red and white plaid skirt, paired with pantyhose and small leather shoes. The outer cover is a white children's woolen coat, which was sent to her by her fourth brother from the provincial capital.
Shui Shangqing and Xiao Qi also wore white shirts, trousers, and military green windbreakers. The whole family looked beautiful.
It's true that people really rely on their clothes. Once dressed up, their temperament will be completely different.
