Chapter 56: Liu Xiangzhi's Marriage

Niu Er carried the cover to the cattle farm to report, startled Duo'er, she was secretly glad that the second brother was prescient. Thankfully, I didn't get involved in it at the time. Otherwise, maybe he will be the same as Niu Er to carry out labor reform now. Xing Er knew that Niu Er would have such an end, and Mr. Ma Lao listened to Duo'er's introduction to Niu Er's satellite, and smiled with his beard.

Xing Er said to Niu Er: "Second Brother Niu, I heard that you have registered with Miss Hong, congratulations." Hong Xing is one of the best girls in our western abduction. Let your kid pick up a bargain without a single shot. ”

Niu Er cracked his mouth and responded with a slight cry: "The good girl is a red apricot?" Then let me ask you, when she cried and shouted that she wanted to marry you, why did you hide and hide? You don't want her to send it to the door for nothing, and you say that I will pick a big bargain? There is no good goods when it is cheap, and good goods are not cheap. Liu Marriage Fat, my family also mentioned relatives, but unfortunately, my second life is not good, let it be given to you. ”

Xing Er said: "Don't talk about the word let, eat with your ability, who should she marry." The two were arguing, but unexpectedly, Liu Xiangzhi came over from the production road. He carried a small bamboo basket with more than a dozen eggs in it. She already knows about Niu Er's transformation. came to him, first handed the egg to Duo'er, and then said: "Second brother Niu, you have been promoted, congratulations." The people who came to the cattle farm to renovate were all characters with heads and faces. ”

Niu Er said: "Don't talk about the wind and cold, be careful that the wind breaks your tongue." Maybe one day, someone will follow in my footsteps and walk in the wheat city. ”

Liu Xianzhi no longer rubbed his tongue with Niu Er, and said to Xing Er with a grimace: "Congratulations on the new member of Niu Farm, I'm leaving." Then he left the cattle farm and returned the way he came. Xing Ermu sent Liu Xianzhi away, and Fang turned around to ask Niu Er's opinion: "I said Niu Er, do you still build a shack?" In my opinion, what about you, why don't you make a nest and make a superficial fuss, and put the cover here to pretend. At night, I still went home to live and slept with Miss Hong in my arms. If anyone asks about this, I'll say you have diarrhea and go home and get your medicine. Do you think that's the way it goes? ”

Niu Er lowered his head and said, "Okay, okay." But in the future, you don't curse me, if I really have a stomachache, you must curse. At that time, Grandpa Niu's head was not vegetarian. ”

Hong Xing has never gone home to live since she lived in Niu's house on the night she got married. The old revolutionary asked her to go home several times, but she agreed barely, and after dinner she pulled out her legs and slipped back to Niu's house. Coupled with Xing Er's grace, Niu Er was allowed to go home and sleep at night. The old revolution can't help it. She tried to persuade Hong Xing to turn back, but Hong Xing ignored her words and couldn't listen to them at all. The old revolutionary saw that his daughter had been living in Niu's house for more than two months, so he had no choice but to get married. After the two families discussed, they asked the blind fortune teller to pick an auspicious day for the zodiac to marry Niu Er Hong Xing. At the wedding ceremony held on the street, there were really a lot of people watching it, and the three layers inside and outside were all impassable. When the master of ceremonies said that the newcomer fell in love through this procedure, Hong Xing was overly excited because of her love, and she reported her courage and took the initiative to ask to talk about her and Niu Er's love experience, she said with great interest: "At that time, I was in love with Xing Er, and we grew up together, he also liked me, and I fell in love with him even more." Last spring, my pants fell to the ground when he pushed the trolley, and he touched my buttocks and thighs, but he insisted that he touched the handlebars. The old revolutionary hurriedly waved his hand to stop the offering, but she was still saying, "I'm still going to finish talking." The master of ceremonies saw that the wedding was going to smash the pot, and hurriedly shouted: "After the love, the gongs and drums are beaten, the wedding is carried out for the last item, and the newlyweds enter the cave room." This relieved the Niu family. I finally passed the wedding. But it also scared him into sweating. He thought to himself: Looking at a very good girl, why don't you know how to count, if you want me to have such a wife, I can't get dark if I hold her three times a day.

On the day of the wedding, there was a popping stick flower on the street, and the old revolutionary burst some stick flowers, leaving half of it in his own house, and packing the rest in his pocket and carrying it to Niu's house. In addition to sending this stick flower, in addition, it was signed at the wedding ceremony this morning, Hong Xing's words were too inappropriate and too exposed, what kind of line is this? She also wanted to tell her daughter a few words, in her mother-in-law's house is not as good as in her mother's house, everything must be cautious, speak politely, grasp the measure, some things can be said, some words can not be said in the stomach for a hundred years, and the words of greeting should be said more, such as greeting the in-laws when you get up in the morning, etc. After dinner in the evening, the old revolutionary called his daughter to a quiet place and repeatedly told her to pay more attention. Hong Xing nodded again and again, and replied that he had all in mind, and the old revolutionary put his mind at ease, said goodbye to the three members of the Niu family, and reluctantly left his daughter's house and went home.

Early in the morning of the second day of the wedding, Hong Xing kept in mind her mother's instructions and went to the door of her in-laws to say hello. It's not a coincidence, the tea that Daddy Niu drank last night was a little cold, he got up early to go to the toilet with diarrhea, just came out of the toilet after untying his hands, and his pants were not yet tied up, and he ran into Hong Xing who also came to the toilet, she remembered that she wanted to greet her in-laws in the morning, and immediately said: "Daddy, how are you urinating in the morning?" ”

Daddy Niu heard his daughter-in-law who had just passed the door say hello to him, but he didn't answer, and he didn't answer, so he had to deal with it casually with a red face: "It's good to pee, it's good to pee," and said while leaving the toilet quickly. At the time of morning dinner, the whole family sat around the table in the small garden to eat. Everyone else started eating with bowls, but Aunt Niu was still eating the stick flowers sent by Hong Xing's mother last night. Hong Xing kindly reminded her mother-in-law: "Mother, the stick flower is too dry, and you can't pull if you eat too much." When the whole family heard her say this, they were all on the spot, you say, to eat this meal or not?

Since Hong Xing got married, Liu Xianzhi's hanging heart has always been put down. Don't worry about Hong Xing messing around. Xing Er is very busy in the cattle farm, in addition to taking care of Mr. Xu Guangda, he also has to inspect the peanuts and cotton of the production team day and night.

On the night of Xu Guangda's arrival, Mr. Ma asked him to take the painkillers that He Duoer bought for him, and while the medicine was still working, he underwent orthopaedic surgery in the second half of the night. First they shoved a clean towel into his mouth and asked him to bite it hard with his teeth, and then knocked his broken leg again. Xu Guangda, who was in pain, let out an "ah" and immediately fainted. Mr. Ma quickly corrected and reset the bone, and then tied a splint to fix it. By the time Mr. Xu woke up, the bone grafting work had already been completed. He endured the pain and nodded his head in gratitude to Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma also nodded his head to accept his thanks. and kept him for three days and three nights. In addition to giving him painkillers on time, he also gave him light salt water, feces and urine and other nursing work, Mr. Ma did not let anyone interfere, in his words, I am a doctor, and it is my duty to serve patients. Since then, Mr. Ma and Xu have become close friends in adversity.

Liu Xianzhi often comes to deliver eggs to Xing Er, and his three chickens are not dead. Xing Er is a good person, and he is reluctant to eat any of the eggs sent by the marriage. All of them made a sick meal for Mr. Xu Guangda. In addition, the director of the carpentry factory, Wang, who is a southerner, took his free time from labor at noon, braved the scorching sun, carried a small bucket, and went to the small pond under the railway trench not far from the west of the cattle farm to catch frogs, and came back to boil chicken soup for Mr. Xu to drink. Sometimes Duo'er also followed him to the small pond to fish and catch loaches, which was used to improve the lives of the group. In that era of material scarcity, how happy it was to be able to drink a bowl of fish soup!

Xu Guangda can walk a few steps on crutches, and in order to reduce the intensity of Duo'er's work, he insists on lighting the fire three times a day. Whenever Liu Xianzhi came to play and wanted to leave, he always urged Xing Er to send her. Usually he always reminds Xing Er: Make a move when it's time to make a move, it's time to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage to the Liu family, and take the three catties of rice and two catties of noodles sent by Mrs. Xu as a meeting gift, and ask Xing Er to send it to the second elder of the Liu family. At that time, there was a shortage of rice in the north, and many people had never seen what rice looked like, let alone tasted it. The cattle farm usually eats boiled sweet potatoes, steamed dried sweet potatoes, and sometimes some cornmeal steamed golden towers are eaten. (Huangjin Pagoda - the joking name of the cornmeal nest, author's note)

Entrusted by the Xing family, the matchmaker's seventh aunt came to Liu Xiangzhi's house for the second time to propose marriage. was warmly entertained by Liu Laozhuan and his wife, not only delicious and delicious. Before leaving, Aunt Liu also brought her half a bowl of rice as a reward. For Aunt Qi, who has seen but never tasted rice, she is really flattered, and her mouth can't close with joy. When she came out of Liu's house and walked on the street, she said that she had rice, and she happily showed it to her neighbors. This matter did not go away, and it reached the ears of the old revolutionary, and she was so angry that she almost turned her back on it. Originally, she was dissatisfied with Xing Er's refusal to marry her daughter, and she held a grudge, and her attitude towards Xing Er was both ice and fire. From the original love to hate, plus there was rice that I didn't give to myself, I simply didn't take me, the representative of the Poor Association, in my eyes. Even if it's a handful of rice, it's okay to block face. This is good, even the matchmaker's seventh aunt has rice to eat, but I, the old revolutionary who holds the power of life and death, sighs at the rice. This breath must come out sooner or later! She scolded secretly in her heart: "Xing Er, Xing Er, you don't know what to do, you have low eyes, you don't take my old revolution as dry food, see how I pick up you stinky boy when I get the chance." It is not appropriate to put the dragon fast son-in-law, and it is not when the turtle arches the soil. Then let's ride a donkey and read the record book - we'll see. See that I will not press you to the ground, so that you will never turn over in the west, and whoever dares to despise me will not end well. If you don't give me face, you're looking for death. ”

The old revolutionary gritted his teeth in his heart and hated poverty, but he didn't want Xing Er and Liu Xianzhi to do good things. This morning, Liu Xianzhi came to the cattle farm again to deliver spinach. Lunch at the cattle farm at noon. After dinner, they didn't leave, sitting at the door of the shack, and the two were begging for something. Liu Xiangzhi was pointing at it, Xing Er couldn't help nodding yes, and when it was dark, Liu Xiangzhi was reluctant to leave the cattle farm. Duo'er asked in the past, only to know that the two were going to get married, and the happy Duo'er applauded, God opened her eyes, her brother is finally going to marry his daughter-in-law, this is great news! She happily walked around the hut and told everyone in the cattle farm the good news. Let everyone be happy with her.

The day before Xing Er and Liu Jie got married, Liu Lao Lian and Xing Lao Lian and Xing Lao Lian opened a gap more than one meter wide on the wall between the two families from the place near the north house, so that it would be convenient for the two families to come over on the day of the marriage. Speaking of which, the day of the marriage was particularly lively, and the relatives and friends of the two families were all present to congratulate. Both courtyards were crowded with guests. The master was so busy that he was sweating profusely, and the two guys who served the food ran straight, and finally finished the eight tables. Xing Liu and the two elders toasted the guests from table to table, and the matter was finished until it was dark. When the relatives and friends scattered, Xing Er breathed a sigh of relief. sat on the edge of the kang and rested for a while, and then cleaned the door with Sister-in-law Duo'er. I sent tables and chairs to my neighbor's house, and I was busy until I was busy with the lights. Xing Er asked the master chef to cook two more tables of wine and food that night. One table is lenient to the helper, and the other table is Xing and Liu, the two elders of the family, get together to borrow wine and talk, talk about the deep friendship of their in-laws, and at the banquet, the two families decided to strike while the iron is hot, and go to the commune to register and get a marriage certificate tomorrow. Then choose an auspicious day for the zodiac to get married. Strive to hug the big boy by this time next year! Everyone pushed their cups and exchanged cups, and drank until late at night, and then they stopped, and each went back to his house to rest. Needless to say, the women of the two families cleaned up the dishes.

The next morning, Duo'er got up early to cook, and asked her brother and sister-in-law to eat early, so that she could go to the civil affairs department of the commune to get the marriage certificate. When she went to the wall to get firewood, she inadvertently glanced at the gap that the two families opened yesterday, huh? No, the gap was still open in the first half of the night, why did it close automatically after half a night's sleep? She entered the house and woke up Xing Er, who was still asleep: "Brother, something strange is coming, the opening that was picked up was obviously open last night, but I just saw it close automatically in the second half of the night, do you think it's strange?" ”

Xing Er scratched his scalp: "Maybe it's because I'm afraid of being unsafe over there, and I'm afraid of trouble for the two of us, so the old comrade took advantage of the wine and blocked it overnight, right?" Whatever, it's better to plug it. We don't live at home, and I'm afraid that his family will take this opportunity to come to our house to steal things. Hurry up and cook some food, and call the marriage fat over the wall to come and eat a piece, so that I can go to the commune as soon as possible. ”

Duo'er nodded, made a fire to cook, and fried two dishes and put them on the table. While Xing Er got up and dressed, she walked quickly to the wall, stood on tiptoe and poked her head over there, and shouted softly, "Sister In-law, come over for breakfast." She shouted four or five times in a row, but there was no movement from the Liu family. I shouted hard and felt that it was inappropriate, so I had to go back to the house and explain to Xing Er that there was no silence over there.

Xing Er got dressed and said, "You talk like a kitten barking, whisper, look at me." He came to the wall and shouted loudly, "Liu Xianzhi, come out and speak." His shouting was not only heard clearly by the Liu family, but also by the neighbors.

Liu Marriage Fat and her mother ran out of the house in response and said, "Uncle Marriage Fat suddenly fell ill tonight, isn't he nobody?" The in-law got up early to serve his uncle, and it was important to take care of the sick. ”

Xing Er said in a low voice, "Didn't you go to register today?" She can't do it if she doesn't go. ”

Liu's mother said: "Let's push back the registration in advance, and wait for her uncle to be discharged from the hospital." After speaking, without waiting for Xing Er to say anything, Liu's mother flashed into the door, Xing Er had no choice but to give up, returned to the house, had breakfast with Duo'er in a hurry, went to work in the cattle farm, and waited for Liu Jie to come back from his uncle's house to register.

Although Xing Er's body is in the cattle farm, his heart can't be calm, and he looks forward to the marriage fat coming back to register with him every day, and this expectation has already passed for half a month, but he still doesn't see Liu Xiangzhi's figure. Just when Xing Er was looking forward to Liu Xianzhi's eyes, Niu Er, who passed by him, said to him: "You're finished, hum!" ”

Xing Erjue's Niu Er had something to say, and when he asked him a few times, he always held his head high and didn't answer. The conflict is obvious. Xing Er knew that Niu Er was a tendon and couldn't attack it head-on, so he surrounded him from the side. Duo'er deliberately said under Xing Er's instructions: "Second Brother Niu, you are an honest man who is a kidnapper in our west. Who doesn't know this? I heard that Sister Hong Xing is pregnant with a child, you have a good life. In the future, he will hold a white fat son, who will have a future, go up and down, and be omnipotent. Good life, good life, wow. Let's count the crutches in the west, and you're lucky. ”

Niu Er was poured down by Duo'er's bowl of ecstasy soup, dazed, dizzy, and couldn't touch the north everywhere. Duo'er saw that it had an effect, and further tricked him: "For example, compared with Sister Hong Xing and Sister Fat, which one has a better life?" ”

Niu Er said: "Originally, my wife Hong Xing had a good life, but unfortunately she got married a few days early, or else, she would have a good job as a worker, and it was her turn to marry Liu?" ”

Xing Er was suspicious of Niu Er's words, and immediately went back to the village to ask Liu Laozhuan and his wife: "Niu Er said that he went to be a worker, is this serious?" ”

Liu Marriage Fat and her mother patted the lacquer cover: "Niu Er's cow tongue is pure nonsense, and the marriage fat is indeed in her uncle's house, which is true." I guess I'll wait a few more days. There is faith. ”

In fact, the Liu family has been delaying the registration again and again, so that their daughter and Xing Er will not see each other. It's a delaying tactic. Xing Er is what a person, he has long seen that his marriage with the marriage fat has gone wrong. The marriage fat can't be hidden, there must be something unspeakable, two people who were originally in love, the marriage is also decided, and the last tremor is almost registered, if it is not a big change, her heart can be so ruthless?

Xing Er returned to the cattle farm, passed by the abductor village Daji, and met Sun San, who stole peanuts that night. Sun San blushed and said, "Second Brother Xing, congratulations, I heard that your wife went to work as a worker." In the future, you will share the food, she will share the money, and the second brother will be on a good day. ”

Xing Er asked him, "Who is in your brigade?" ”

Sun San said: "One brigade has one place, and my brigade is Zhao Liu's sister." Didn't the city build a fertilizer factory in our Sibaoshan to take care of our locals, and a brigade called one person. For the first three months, I was a temporary worker. Twelve dollars a month. Three months later, he became a worker and a farmer. The salary is twenty-one six per month. It belongs to the apprentice level, and after three years of work, after the apprenticeship expires, it will be converted into a regular worker, with a monthly salary of 32 yuan. Since then, it has increased year by year. ”

Xing Er asked him, "How do you know so much?" ”

Sun San said: "My life is cheap, I was originally good with Zhao Liu's sister, and I was about to get engaged, but unexpectedly, there were unforeseen circumstances, she stepped into the sky, became a fertilizer factory worker, and kicked me." He and your wife share the staff cooperative, working as a salesperson, and yesterday I went to buy something, and it was still the money your wife collected. ”

Xing Er smiled and asked, "Where is the cooperative?" ”

"Go south along Baoshan Road, south of the commune station. The east side of the road is a fertilizer factory. A large workshop is being built. Some of the big machines are still on the side of the road. There is a staff store outside the dormitory in Luxi, facing Baoshan Road, where Liu Xiangzhi works as a salesperson. There is also a man named Wang Lin. He is a graduate of a technical school and also works in a commissary, and yesterday I saw him and your wife eye-to-eye. Second Brother Xing beware. After speaking, Sun San left.

Xing Er's face turned from yellow to red, and then from red to purple. I only heard him yell: "Liu Laoshuan, I'm cāo your grandmother!" Dare to coax me, master, and don't kill your brother-in-law. I don't have the surname Xing. ”

It happened that Xing Er's sister-in-law Liu Cuihua passed by him in a hurry, pushed him, and said with a smile: "Second brother, get Liu Xiangzhi in your hands, let's paint Lehu, scold my father-in-law on the big set, be careful that the wall has ears, pass it to your father-in-law, and then go to your father-in-law's house to see how he cleans you up." ”

Xing Er sneered: "I'm not sure whose father-in-law it is." He's trying to clean me up, and I'm trying to clean him up. ”

Liu Cuihua heard that her brother-in-law's marriage had changed, and there were many people in the big set, so she pulled Xing Er home and asked carefully. When he learned that Liu Xiangzhi had changed his hexagram and did not register with Xing Er, he suddenly felt that he was stern. She originally thought that the night of the marriage was booked to go to Fengji in the morning, and the registration should have been done in the past few days. This beating of mandarin ducks must have been done by the old revolutionary. This trick is really poisonous, killing two birds with one stone, that is, pulling the Liu family. and gave Xing Eryi a knife at a critical moment. Even if he disgraced him and lost the girl he loved, it was like pouring salt on his wounds. In order to avenge Xing Er's revenge for not marrying her daughter, she competed to use such a vicious trick, which is really hateful. A pair of good mandarin ducks were dismantled alive. Liu Cuihua pondered for a moment. Patiently persuaded Xing Er and said: "Brother, even if Liu Yanzhi escapes from marriage and refuses to go to Fengji, it seems that Wang Ba is eating and weighing the stones, and he is hard-hearted. She immediately chose the root of marriage, and it seems that it is difficult to redeem it. What is the current worker? The working class. Hold the golden rice bowl. It was easy for her to get a non-agricultural hukou, jump out of the quagmire, receive her salary every month, and buy affordable grain from the Grain Bureau, which is a step to the sky. I will definitely not come back and compensate you for living this poor life."

Xing Er said angrily: "She wants to live a good life by herself, no way, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world?" In the past few years, the hard work and feelings I have spent on her, can I spare her so lightly? If I want to die together, I can't live a good white life, and she doesn't want to be happy. It's a big deal, and I'll pay her to hell. ”

Liu Cuihua glanced at Xing Er and persuaded: "It's better to die than to live, it's really not worth dying to go to hell for a woman." In this world, three-legged toads are hard to find, and two-legged women are everywhere. Take 10,000 steps back. She just became close to you, she is in the world outside, and she is mixed outside all day long, can she live with you wholeheartedly? I have to get you a green hat to wear, and I have to you off to death. Think about your fiery temper, can you endure the breath of being a king? A knife on the head of the word ninja. In my opinion, while you haven't torn your face yet, you should calm down and go back to the cattle farm to think carefully about what to do. As for me, wait for your eldest brother to come back in the evening and discuss what measures are appropriate to take next. In short, you can't just take it lightly. ”

Xing Er lowered his head and thought about it, then secretly gritted his teeth and scolded: "Old revolutionary, I have a weakness, and you also have a gap." I'm young, you're old, a gentleman takes revenge, it's not too late for ten years, let's see who fights whom? Liu Xiangzhi, you ungrateful girl, the death penalty is spared from the living crime, Xing Ye, I will even pick you up!
