"Sister, shall we go out to eat tonight?" Qin Jingru pulled Qin Huairu's sleeve.
"Qin Jingru, you have a lot of money, so you have to go out to eat, right?" Qin Huairu glared, "Shaowen goes out to eat, that's for socializing... What do we two girls look like when we go out to eat?"
"Where did you go?" Qin Jingru said anxiously, "Isn't it because Shaowen is getting married to Yu Haitang? I have to buy something."
"Yes." Qin Huairu's tone softened slightly, "Then we will go back early and make arrangements for Lei Dali and the others first... Shaowen is not here, so it is not appropriate for us to have dinner with them."
"Um."
Qin Jingru nodded, glanced at Lin Shaowen who was talking to Director Yang in the distance, and sighed quietly.
In fact, she sometimes thinks that with Lin Shaowen's medical skills, they will live well even if they return to the countryside. But Qin Huairu told him that if they returned to the countryside, their children would have rural household registration, and it would be difficult for them to come to Sijiu City.
This was the most important reason that caused her to relent.
evening.
Lin Shaowen rode a bicycle and took Yu Haitang to a tube building. The tube building was said to be a building, but in fact it didn't even have a kitchen. Cooking had to be done in the corridor. It was not comparable to the family compound of the Ministry of Industry.
Yu Haitang's family lives on the second floor, with two bedrooms and one living room, less than 60 square meters.
She and Yu Li had been in the same room since they were children. It wasn't until Yu Li got married that she had her own room for the first time.
"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Li..."
"Begonia is back."
Many people smiled and greeted her.
Lin Shaowen was carrying large and small bags of things and followed her with a smile on his face.
nervous? nonexistent.
I have met my parents three times, no... four times to be precise.
"Is that Haitang's partner?"
"Tsk, well dressed, looks like a cadre."
"Go, how old is he? Have you ever seen such a young cadre?"
…
These days, what everyone likes most is to watch the excitement.
Yu Haitang has been beautiful since she was a child, and many people want her to be their wife. However, Yu Haitang's eyes are higher than her head, and most people would not even say a word to her, let alone meet her.
"Mom and Dad, why are you down here?"
Before Yu Haitang could reach the stairs, he saw two people walking towards him.
"Hello, Director Lin." Yu Aiqiao shouted nervously.
"What? Factory director?"
Many neighbors who were watching the excitement were shocked. Although the factory director was divided into principals and deputy directors, as well as large and small factories, he was at least a department-level cadre, right?
"Uncle, don't call me that, just call me Xiao Lin." Lin Shaowen said politely.
"Then...then I'm counting on you." Yu Aiqiao reached out to take the gift in his hand and said with a smile, "The food is ready, let's talk at home."
"Eh."
Lin Shaowen agreed and followed him immediately.
"Xiaohua, is this Haitang's lover?" Someone grabbed Yu Haitang's mother.
"It's not the target, they have already received the certificate." Wang Xiaohua said with a smile.
"get married?"
Everyone was shocked.
Why don't the neighbors know about such a big thing?
"Haitang is a senior cadre, so he doesn't want to do anything big..."
Wang Xiaohua was about to show off, but was pulled away by Yu Haitang.
"Mom, why are you telling them this?" Yu Haitang said unhappy.
"My son-in-law is the director of the factory, why can't others know about it?" Wang Xiaohua asked dissatisfied.
"Deputy Director." Yu Haitang threatened, "Don't talk nonsense outside. Shaowen is currently evaluating associate professor at the Medical University. If you affect his future, I...I will never come back."
"Be good, associate professor?"
Wang Xiaohua was stunned with fear.
In her impression, professors were all old men with gray beards.
Yu family.
Lin Shaowen sat on the stool, took out a cigarette and handed one to Yu Aiqiao, "Uncle, did my friend say that you work in a printing factory?"
"Eh, Level 4 worker."
Yu Aiqiao took the cigarette with both hands.
The salary of a Level 4 worker is forty-eight and a half yuan, which is pretty good.
Yanbu Guicai's salary of more than thirty yuan supports his family of five.
"Well, not bad." Lin Shaowen nodded with a smile. After seeing Yu Haitang and Wang Xiaohua come in, he said softly, "You should also know that my parents left when I was young, so I negotiated my marriage myself. .”
"Hey, if you have any request, you and I can do it." Yu Aiqiao whispered.
? ? ?
Lin Shaowen looked at Yu Aiqiao with a confused face, what are these words?
"Dad, what did you say?"
Yu Haitang blushed and pulled Yu Aiqiao.
"Ahem, cough, cough... No, Director Lin, I don't have any requirements. Just be nice to Haitang from now on." Yu Aiqiao blushed and said sarcastically.
Wang Xiaohua didn't dare to say anything.
The main reason is that Lin Shaowen's aura is too strong. A division-level cadre in his twenties is half a level higher than the director of Yu Aiqiao's printing factory.
Lin Shaowen thought for a while, then took out an envelope from his pocket, "Then I'll give you the gift first. As for watches, bicycles, etc., I'll take some time tomorrow and I'll take Haitang to buy them. What do you think?" "
"Lin...Xiao Lin, we don't have to spend so much money." Wang Xiaohua said anxiously, "Your yard is not far from the steel rolling mill. It only takes half an hour to walk. Haitang is a girl. How can she ride a bicycle?" .”
Yu Haitang lowered his head and did not dare to answer.
"These are all things that should be done." Lin Shaowen smiled, "I have a sewing machine at home, and a radio at home... If Haitang doesn't like it, let's buy another one."
"Enough, enough, these are enough." Wang Xiaohua was a little frightened when she heard this, "As long as you live a good life, other things are not important."
"Then you put the bride price away and we have dinner?" Lin Shaowen asked tentatively.
"this……"
Wang Xiaohua glanced at Yu Aiqiao, who nodded silently. Then she put the envelope away, but as soon as she held it in her hand, she felt something was wrong with the thickness, but she couldn't open it in front of Lin Shaowen. open.
"Xiao Lin, my family's conditions are average and we don't have any good wine...you just have to drink."
Yu Aiqiao was very embarrassed while holding the Fenjiu in his hand.
"Dad, drink the bar Shaowen brought."
As Yu Haitang spoke, he placed two bottles of Maotai on the table.
"It's okay, just drink Fenjiu. I'm not picky about wine..."
Lin Shaowen smiled and waved his hand.
Yu Aiqiao silently put Fenjiu on the table and opened a bottle of Maotai.
Having such a domineering son-in-law is too much pressure.
When Lin Shaowen saw this, he didn't say anything. He just smiled and clinked glasses with him, and then made an appointment to pick up Yu Haitang on the 7th of next month.
Yu Aiqiao nodded hurriedly and didn't speak much. He just kept pouring wine for Lin Shaowen, but he didn't dare to persuade him.
So, the meal was finished in this embarrassing mood.
Yu Haitang wanted to go back with Lin Shaowen, but was held back by Wang Xiaohua on the grounds that she also wanted to discuss "matters related to marriage."
