Chapter 217: Officially Married
Hong Liye and Zhao Xiaodong's wedding day was set on Sunday, although the day was a little hasty, but this era is about hardship and simplicity.
Song Yiran didn't report yet, so she helped Zhao Xiaodong buy clothes, do her hair, and the watch she was given at the beginning, and also packed it up and put it on.
Hong Liye was in charge of sending letters to friends and relatives, telling them to come to his wedding with Zhao Xiaodong on Sunday.
At this time, invitations were not popular, they were all word of mouth.
On Saturday, Zhou Huihui's family came to Hong's house early.
Song Yiran also met Zhou Huihui's parents for the first time.
Zhou Huihui's mother is called Hong Xia, and her father is called Zhou Qiming, both husband and wife are employees of the town's farm, working hard, working in three shifts, and rarely at home.
When Zhou Huihui was thirteen or fourteen years old, she began to take care of her two younger brothers, washing and cooking for them, and helping them solve their learning difficulties. So much so that Zhou Huihui couldn't take care of her academic performance. I started working after graduating from junior high school.
Zhou Huihui's mother, Hong Xia, is also a very beautiful person, but she looks a little old. The main reason is that her work is rainy, it is really not easy, and she can't be young if she wants to.
Zhou Qiming is a shy person, and he basically stopped talking after saying hello. He and Hong Liye can still talk a few words from time to time, and more often, they all work with their heads down, and they don't talk much about typical hardships and hard work.
A pair of twins were still noisy, their eyes lit up when they saw the treasure pickup, and when they knew that they would stay in the Hong family after picking up the treasure, the cheers almost lifted the roof!
The two and a half children are full of energy, and it is the most headache time, and the two of them and a dog are running happily in the yard.
In the evening of the same day, the wedding room was arranged, the happy words were pasted, and the process was finalized.
Because Hong Liye and Zhao Xiaodong don't like too complicated weddings, they don't do anything to get married, and they are married for the second time anyway, and Zhao Xiaodong doesn't have a maiden family. Before the feast begins, the witnesses are directly invited to speak, and the newlyweds take an oath to the great man and toast the guests, and that's pretty much it.
The director of the food factory, surnamed Hou, is a short man in his early fifties, who usually follows the rules and does not seek merit, but seeks no fault. This person is mediocre at work, and his popularity in life is not bad, mainly because he never puts on a leadership shelf and is quite close to the people.
Hong Liye asked this director Hou to be his witness.
Director Hou can stay in this position for a few years, as long as he doesn't make big mistakes, he can survive until retirement. At that time, Hong Liye's opportunity will come, as long as he leads the team well, he will not be able to sit in the position of factory director? It is precisely because of this that Hong Liye will think that this witness to the marriage is none other than the factory director.
The night before the wedding, while sleeping, Song Yiran secretly asked Zhao Xiaodong, "Auntie, are you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" It is false to say that she is not afraid, after all, she became a widow after three days of marriage, and she has tasted cold eyes and ridicule for half her life, and has suffered a lot of grievances. The happiness in front of her is a good day that she can't even think of, how can she not be afraid!
Hong Liye gave her great confidence, he said that he would tolerate everything she had and give her a stable life!
After getting along for a long time, Zhao Xiaodong also knew that Hong Liye was not so easy to pay sincerely, otherwise, he would not have been looking for Xinxin for so many years, to put it bluntly, he was not afraid that Xinxin would be wronged?
Life is lived by people, Lao Hong's conditions are so good, she is willing to find her, a country widow, she is not satisfied.
In the future, she will treat Xinxin well, serve the old man well, and if she can, she will also want to give Lao Hong a few more children.
None of this can be explained to Song Yiran, Zhao Xiaodong just said a word.
Song Yiran smiled at the corner of his mouth, and he was also happy for Zhao Xiaodong. She rolled over and quickly fell asleep.
The next day, the Hong family, young and old, got up early.
The small courtyard was cleaned up, and there were three tables in the courtyard and one table in the house.
The one who came to help cook was the master chef of the second canteen. The simple stove, which was set up last night, has dried this morning and is just ready to use. The shed is set up in the morning, and the work of washing, washing, chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients must be completed in the shed.
There were four tables in total, and they were all full.
At the table in the room sat leaders and senior people, in addition to Mrs. Du, who was preparing for the mother-in-law, and Director Hou, who came to be a witness, Song Yiran also saw an old lady with a kind smile and a good temperament.
Song Yiran has an excellent memory, and recognized this old lady at the moment, when Zhao Xiaodong was hospitalized three years ago, she sold a deer, and she was the one who bought the deer.
It should be surnamed Shao, and she is likely to be the Dean Shao who operated on Zhao Xiaodong in the first place. If this is really the case, then this fate can be said to be quite deep.
The old lady obviously recognized Song Yiran, but she didn't mean to say hello, and nodded slightly at Song Yiran, which was considered to have spoken.
There is no need to take the initiative to talk to a junior on such an occasion.
Besides, Song Yiran was very busy, helping to add some melon seeds to this table for a while, helping to put some sugar cubes on that table for a while, and keeping an eye on the children who came, so as not to encounter any danger and have no time to catch up.
Song Yiran is too good-looking, outstanding, and has a very unusual temperament, and many people quietly asked Hong Xia and Zhou Huihui about Song Yiran's situation. After knowing her situation, many people moved the idea of introducing her to the object, after all, this girl is old, has a good job, and her appearance is also outstanding, except for the almost, she is excellent in all aspects!
The most important point is that she has no family, which means that there is no burden!
After inquiring carefully, it turns out that the girl has a partner!
Many people feel pity, but there is no way.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the people attending the wedding arrived one after another.
The wedding guest is an officer of the food factory trade union, and after speaking impassionedly about a leader's quotation, he began to introduce the two newlyweds.
The simple opening remarks, the atmosphere is not too warm, everyone knows in their hearts, and it is not good to say too much.
"Witnesses are invited to speak!"
Everyone was very face-saving and applauded enthusiastically.
Director Hou stood up, stood next to the newcomer, and pressed down with his palms.
Everyone stopped applauding and prepared to listen to the leader's speech.
As the head of a factory, there must be a level, such a small thing as being a witness, there is a unified model, as long as it is read according to the script, there is no need to prepare any draft.
As soon as Director Hou came up, he made an official tone, first praising Hong Liye as an excellent comrade and praising Zhao Xiaodong as a good wife and mother. I hope that these two people will unite and love each other in the future, run a small family, shine in the factory, and make more contributions, and finally read out the marriage certificate of the two.
“...... I declare that Comrade Hong Liye and Comrade Liu Xiaodong are legally married, true and valid, and have officially become husband and wife!"
Warm applause rang out again.
