Chapter 807: Gold Jewelry
After lunch on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Han Yuanchao went to work, he first went to the provincial capital to attend the Standing Committee, and then returned to Fucheng. Shengnan returned to Fucheng on the sixth day of the first month, Zhibin's grandmother and grandfather stayed in Hantun, and went back after the fifteenth day of the first month, and their school opened on the twentieth day of the first month.
Early in the morning of the sixth day of the first lunar month, the people from the village who went to Kyoto set out. Four Jiefang trucks were dispatched together, led by Han Zhijie and Han Daowei.
In rural areas, it is generally over before the fifth day of junior high school, and it is easier after the sixth year of junior high school. Hantun Village started to work on the eighth day of junior high school, and only had two free days of free time on the sixth and seventh days of junior high school.
There were more than 80 people in the village who went to Kyoto this time, and almost every family went to Kyoto, and some families went to two.
Han Daowei's second son got engaged, and gave a pair of gold bracelets to the object Dongmei as a dowry, and his own children also wanted to follow this standard when they were engaged.
Everyone went to Kyoto, mainly because they felt that the price of gold had risen rapidly in the past two years. Since you have to buy it sooner or later, it is better to prepare in advance when the price of gold is cheap now.
Besides, gold jewelry is not sold in Linshui, if you want to buy it, you must go to a big city above the provincial level, Hantun Village often goes to Kyoto to deliver goods, and it is more convenient for people to go to Kyoto than to go to the provincial capital.
Since it was to buy gold jewelry for the children, the older children went with it. "Big One" with his second daughter Jingyun, and Han Yuchen's wife with his fourth son.
There were also two people who went together, Han Zhijie and Han Daowei, who both took their daughters-in-law to Kyoto and threw the children to the old man.
If there is no elderly person in the family, the child will be sent to live at his grandmother's house for a few days. Han Yuchen's family has the most such situation, the man has been sentenced, and the children in the family have had a hard time getting married in the past two years, so they want to buy more gold jewelry to add points to their children.
Especially in this kind of large group buying of the whole village, they want to buy more gold and silver jewelry, attract the attention of the villagers, and give their family a name. Other people have good things to hide, and the more they have good things, the better.
If you want to say that the young people in Hantun Village are looking for a partner, it is really not difficult, it is Han Yuchen's family, and there are also those who want to marry them. But it's not easy to find a good one.
Those who took the initiative to withdraw from their families were all in better conditions in all aspects. Those who are engaged dislike them, and the good young people who are not engaged will definitely not want to. The conditions are poor, and Han Yuchen and his family can't look down on them.
Most of the people who went to Kyoto were young adults, and they didn't bring the elderly and children with them. Last time, I ran into robbers on the way back to Kyoto, so there were more men who went this time, accounting for more than half of them.
The men and women who went out wore Tang suits and cotton jackets, and the weather was cold in the morning, and they were wrapped in army green cotton coats, which looked particularly weird.
However, when the cotton coat is taken off, the special Tang costume is revealed, and in this era, there are fewer gay men wearing Tang costumes, and even fewer peasants wearing Tang costumes.
Gay men wear Tang costumes, giving people a sense of elegance. The women of Hantun Village proudly said that their men wore Tang costumes and all became cultural people.
Even in urban areas, women rarely wear Tang costumes compared to men. Tang costumes are beautiful, and there are too many fabrics available. The Tang costume cotton jacket made in Hantun Village, the cotton gall inside and the brocade outside are separated, compared with the general cotton jacket, one side of the fabric is used, which is enough to make a single coat.
Besides, the satin fabric on the outside of the Tang costume is also delicate, and it can't be touched, and it can be hung rough.
Nowadays, people are used to working, not to mention farmers, even workers in towns, and their hands are also calloused.
With calloused hands, you can hang silk by touching the silk. Silk satin looked rough, and the new clothes became old clothes.
The women of Hantun Village have not done farm work in recent years, and the pigs and sheep at home are rarely fed, and most of them are taken care of by children.
Since the restoration of the canteen in the village in 82, they rarely even cook, even if they cook, they do not steam steamed buns, they always take ready-made hot steamed buns in the canteen.
In addition to going to work, the women are weaving, and when they talk together, they all smile and say, "Washing machine for laundry, old man for cleaning." ”
This is very satisfying, and it also carries a little pride.
Because they rarely do housework, the hands of the women of Hantun Village are very delicate and soft, at least they can't hang silk when they touch the satin.
Hantun people wear Tang costumes, and they wear them for a few days every year during the New Year, and everyone usually wears sportswear, which is strong and wear-resistant, and it is convenient to work.
Every year on November 15, when the solar calendar enters, the village begins to deliver heating, and until March 15 of the following year, the indoor temperature is kept above 20 degrees, and the thickness of sportswear is just right.
The outdoor temperature is low, go out and wrap a cotton coat, now the cotton coat, warmth is the first, each set of two catties of cotton, wear the outside to keep warm, look bloated can be particularly practical.
The men of Hantun Village actually like their old ladies wearing Tang costumes, which are eye-catching.
The women in Hantun all learned to comb the buds with Zhao Fang at the reception. Those under the age of fifty are not combed, and they all comb their buds, which is simple and neat.
The little girl doesn't tie two braids and ponytails, but she also ties the buds when she is happy, which looks foreign.
Driven by the women of Hantun Village, the female workers who work in Hantun also comb their buds and ponytails. However, the women in other villages, few of them follow the study, and some people comb their buds, and the people in the village laugh at them: "I really think I am from Hantun, and I don't look at the clothes I wear." ”
The flower bud head with Tang costume looks very coordinated. Tie a bud head and wear a flower cotton jacket, the style of painting is particularly inconsistent. On the other hand, it's hard to imagine what it's like to wear a Tang costume with two small brushes.
This time I went to Kyoto, and everyone didn't discuss it, but they all put on Tang costumes. It seems that I still think Tang costumes look good.
Han Aimin and Liu Ran, Zhou Shengying and Gui Jin, plus Wu Weihua, Zhiyuan and Wu Xin'er David also went back together.
The rest of the Youyou family did not go to Kyoto with them, and when Aimin and Liu Ran got married, everyone in the family went to Kyoto. At that time, the price of gold was much cheaper than now, and the workmanship and style were more exquisite.
Under the intentional guidance of grandma and Yoyo, the family bought no less jewelry, including gold and silver jewelry. In the past few years, when the family has gone out, they will buy it when they meet the right one, and they have saved a lot of heirlooms that can be used as heirlooms in my aunt's family.
Liu Ran and Guijin have to go to work on the seventh day of junior high school. The two of them also have a mission, to take the villagers around Kyoto. Although the area of the current Sijiu City is less than one-tenth of that of the later generations, if no one takes it with you, it will really not be able to visit in two days.
The accommodation of the villagers in Kyoto was arranged by Mr. Lin of Zhenyu Company, and it was arranged in his own hotel. In recent years, Zhenyu Company has purchased a lot of courtyard houses in Kyoto, and let Steward Lin rebuild them into a chain hotel that integrates food and accommodation.
