Chapter 298 Marriage Overture

1.

October 22, 1996, September 11 of the lunar calendar, is the day when Lao Chun's family and Lao Xu's family agreed to marry Xu Dan for Spring.

As the wedding day approaches, the mood of spring becomes more and more irritable, and there is no trace of joy, happiness and joy that the newlywed is approaching, and the heaviness, loss and faint sadness in the heart always lingers.

It's another weekend, and Spring is lying alone in the dormitory, and my mind is in a mess, not knowing what to think about or what to do. I only felt that my whole body was floating in the clouds, light and fluttering, and there was no sense of existence. The confusion of reality and emotions makes Spring fall into the endless confusion of life, as if he has lost the direction of life.

The home in Shimengouzi Village has now become a mess of porridge, and I don't want to go back in the spring. Almost all of Lao Chun's family members went out, and the men were busy making furniture, painting houses, repairing the streets, and cleaning indoor and outdoor hygiene; the women were busy sewing the newlyweds' bedding, steaming the steamed buns used in the wedding, and frying the "Xihuazi" and "chess pieces"; in addition, they also had to prepare wine, food, cigarettes, candy, melon seeds, peanuts, and other things to entertain the neighbors, relatives, and friends who came to the door to deliver wedding gifts. I was upset when I saw these things in the spring, so I simply didn't go home under the pretext that I had a job at school.

Xu Dan's family, since the Chun Xu family held a ceremony to "send the day", the spring has never been there. Xu Dan came to invite him a few times, but he excused himself with something in the spring, Xu Dan's family is a kind and real person, and he doesn't know how to face the enthusiasm of the old Xu family after he goes in the spring. During this period, Xu Dan also came to the school twice, either to send good food to Spring, or to get Spring's dirty clothes, and Spring accepted it silently.

Just as Spring was lying on the bed thinking nonsense, Xu Dan knocked on the door and walked into the house with a big bag in his hand.

"Why are you here?" asked Spring, getting up from the bed and looking puzzled.

"I'm looking for you to have something to do! I guess you didn't come home, and that's right. Xu Dan smiled slightly, put the pocket in his hand on the chair, "Do you think everyone has a 'uncle' fate like you, you don't have to worry about anything, someone will do everything for you!"

"How can there be?" Spring blushed, and knew in his heart what Xu Dan meant, "Besides, I don't understand anything, and doing it is also adding to the chaos." ”

"Well, whoever lives whatever, someone will do it for you anyway! Xu Dan sighed, there was a little helplessness in his words, I don't know why, Xu Dan always couldn't hate the man in front of him.

Spring smiled and didn't say anything.

"Well, this is the suit, tie, shirt and leather shoes I bought for you in the county seat for your wedding, you can try whether the size is appropriate, if not, I can go back and change." Xu Dan said, took out the things in his pocket one by one and put them on the spring bed.

"I'll just buy it myself, why do I want you to spend money?" Spring said to Xu Dan embarrassedly as he looked at the clothes and shoes piled up on the bed. Although Spring is not an expert, he also knows that the clothes Xu Dan bought are definitely not cheap. The suit is a light gray striped "Groom Sinur" suit, the shirt is white, the tie is red, both are "Red Bean" brand, the leather shoes are light red soft cowhide "Golden Monkey" brand, and the socks are also bright red, but the label is torn off, so the brand is not visible.

"It didn't cost a lot of money, you can wear it if you buy it. Besides, where would you buy these things as a big man?" Xu Danwan smiled, and the words suddenly changed, "By the way, are you free tomorrow?"

"What are you doing?" Spring was stunned, afraid that Xu Dan would invite him to her house again.

"It's going to be ten days before I get married, and the marriage certificate hasn't been processed yet!" Xu Dan looked at the spring with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Oh, where are you going to get a marriage certificate?What do you need?"

"You just need to accompany me tomorrow to take a photo of the two of us, you don't have to worry about the rest, I will go to the town civil affairs office to handle the formalities myself." Xu Dan said very simply, it seems that he has thought deeply about this matter.

There is such a cheap thing, and the spring is naturally full of promises.

"By the way, when is the wedding banquet going to be held?" Xu Dan thought about it and said to Spring.

"I haven't thought about it yet..." Spring scratches your head meaningfully.

"I've found someone to check the date, let's set it for October 19th, the lunar calendar is the 8th day of September, which happens to be Saturday, and your colleagues, classmates and friends can make time. "As soon as I saw Xu Dan, I was prepared, "The banquet is set in my eldest sister's hotel, she only calculates our cost price, so that we can save a little, but the place is a little small, at most seven tables can be set at a time, if there are many people, you need to put it twice at noon and night..."

"Whatever, any day, when the time comes, I'll inform my classmates and colleagues, and your friends over there. "Spring casually agreed, anyway, it is something that has to be done sooner or later, it is better to start early.

After discussing the matter, Spring simply took advantage of today's free time to ride a motorcycle and drive Xu Dan directly to Heishuigou Village.

There is no photo studio in Hushan Town, and you can only go to the county seat or Heishuigou Village, 20 miles away, where there is a photo studio, in addition to daily ID photos, but also to undertake wedding photos and wedding video business. Since there is only one photo studio within a radius of dozens of miles, the business is extremely hot.

Ten minutes later, Spring and Xu Dan came to the "Yongfang Studio" in Heishuigou Village. It is said that it is a photo studio, but it is actually two storey storefronts on the street, but it is decorated by the owner of the shop, which looks quite magnificent.

Xu Dan also runs a business such as wedding dress rental and wedding car decoration on the streets of Hushan Town, and has business contacts with the owner of "Yongfang Photo Studio", so he is an acquaintance. After saying hello, Xu Dan explained his intention, and the boss greeted Spring warmly. When taking a group photo, the owner of the photo studio asked Spring to correct his hairstyle and change a set of dresses for taking pictures, but Spring didn't agree, Xu Dan didn't dare to say much on the side, just like that, Spring wore a wrinkled torn vest and messy long hair, and Xu Dan, who was full of happiness, took a group photo for the marriage certificate. After the group photo was taken, the owner of the photo studio and Xu Dan instigated Spring to take a set of wedding photos, but Spring wrinkled his brows and still didn't agree, Xu Dan had to leave the "Yongfang Photo Studio" with the spring in despair.

After taking the marriage certificate with Xu Dan in the spring, it is equivalent to officially opening the prelude to the marriage of the two people.

After returning from Heishuigou Village, Spring sent Xu Dan back to her cosmetics store on a motorcycle, refused Xu Dan's reservation for lunch, and rode back to Hushan Middle School on a motorcycle.

When I returned to school, I was still bored in the spring, so I called Wu Xiao, who was messing around in Wang Li's dormitory, and the two of them went to Lao Wangtou's store to buy some drinks, and sat opposite each other in the dormitory to eat and drink.

Drinking wine, Spring told Wu Xiao about the wedding wine and marriage, Wu Xiao congratulated, and reminded Spring of some things that need to be prepared and things to pay attention to before the wedding. For example: booking of wedding car and wedding video, preparation of wedding ring, etc.

"The wedding car and video Xu Dan said that she is in charge, does the wedding ring have to be bought?"

"You guy won't be so picky, right? You get married once in your life, and you are reluctant to buy a ring for other women? It stands to reason that you should buy one for engagement and another one for marriage!" Wu Xiao looked indignant.

"How can you be reluctant?" Spring blushed, "I'll go to the county seat tomorrow to buy it, okay? You go with me, and help me grow my eyes when the time comes!"

Wu Xiao agreed very happily.

Spring took a sip of wine and let out a long sigh. Thinking about it, Xu Dan has given up the wedding photos according to his own wishes, if the wedding ring is not bought for Xu Dan, I am afraid it is really unreasonable.

The next day, Spring and Wu Xiao took a car to the county seat.

At the jewelry counter of the department store, Spring spent 1,260 yuan to buy a 7-gram hairpin pure gold wedding ring for Xu Dan. After buying the ring, Spring plunged into the home appliance department, and selected a state-of-the-art Hitachi VT-FX6500A recording and playback camera, which cost 2,730 yuan. This move in the spring made Wu Xiao addicted, this Hitachi video camera is not only expensive, it costs almost a year's salary in the spring, the key is that this machine is the most popular video recorder at the moment, it is fully functional, it can play video tapes, and it can also record TV programs with good images and high-fidelity stereo, and it is also equipped with a universal remote control, which is definitely the first in Hushan Town.
