Three days later, the train slowly pulled into the station, making a high-pitched and loud grinding sound.

Gu Yi twisted a big bag and got out of the car along the crowd.

Chen Xingling and Zhao Xiaoxing hid behind him, followed the crowd and left the platform step by step, and squeezed straight to the exit.

Fortunately, the bags that came back were seven or eight percent less than when they went, and the three of them didn't have to pack big bags or small bags. After leaving the train station, the three of them easily squeezed into the bus, and after half an hour, they walked around the city and soon arrived in the center of the city.

The bus did not go directly to the shipyard, so Chen Xingling took them to get off on the street closest to the north of the city.

"Alright, it's about ten minutes to walk back from here."

The three of them chatted and walked north of the city, discussing the next arrangements.

"Xiaoxing's ID card was brought, but she still has a few months before she reaches the legal age for marriage. In addition, Ah Yi is now a person with a unit, and he has to go to the unit to apply. Nowadays, most people's marriage process is very simple, there are few people who get a marriage certificate, and they generally invite relatives, friends or acquaintances to have a meal and send some candy, even if they are married. ”

"You don't need a marriage certificate." Zhao Xiaoxing didn't care at all, and smiled: "No one in our village got that, it was just a piece of paper, I don't know what's going on, and I don't know what it can do." Anyway, if you are hired to marry, you are married, and everyone in our village only recognizes this. ”

After all, Gu Yi was an educated city person, and shook his head: "Let's get a marriage certificate." It may not be needed in normal times, but it is proof that our marriage is legal. ”

Zhao Xiaoxing grinned: "I can't prove it...... There is no need to prove that others also recognize us as husband and wife. ”

"Nope." Chen Xingling bluntly persuaded: "The marriage certificate is the legal basis for marriage, and it must not be underestimated. If you just marry in the village, and the family and the villagers do it, you can go with the flow. But now it's different. People who have a unit and knowledge will go through the legal process, which is a guarantee of their marital rights, and we must pay attention to it. ”

Gu Yi asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, you shouldn't need a marriage certificate usually, right?" ”

"Wrong." Chen Xingling explained: "A marriage certificate is required many times. Like a separate room, you may need your marriage certificate and household registration book to testify to the size of the family. You may also need a marriage license if you are promoted or transferred to another job in the future. Do what you need to do, don't wait until you need it empty-handed, and you may not be able to do it in time. ”

In this era when transportation is not developed enough and information dissemination is not developed enough, ordinary people's legal awareness is low.

Most rural people are engaged to marry according to the old tradition, and there is no subconscious of getting a marriage certificate, anyway, as long as the ceremony is complete, they are considered formal couples, and there is no sense of legal self-protection.

"Uh-oh." Today's Zhao Xiaoxing admires Chen Xingling very much, obeys her words, and hurriedly responds: "Sister-in-law, what do you say to do, let's do it." ”

Chen Xingling chuckled: "Then listen to me, when the day is almost over, the two will go to get a license to get married." After receiving the certificate, Archie and I will help you choose a good day and an auspicious day to have a meal, so that it will be lively. ”

"Good! Listen to my sister-in-law! Gu Yi said with a smile.

The three of them soon came to the north gate of the shipyard, climbed to the first floor of the river, and came to the door of the house.

Eight days passed, Chen Xingling looked at the familiar door, and couldn't help but think of Gu Qi and his son again.

She went north, Gu Qi went south, and I don't know how many miles were separated in the middle. Now that she's home, she just needs to wait at home for him to triumph.

The baby son doesn't know what he's doing? Do you play crazy at the beach every day? Did you secretly wipe your tears at night and miss your parents?

Seeing that it was going to be evening, I had to pick him up tomorrow morning.

Fortunately, she took ten days off in one go, and had two days to rest at home. It's better to stay at your mother's house for a day tomorrow, come back in the evening, take the opportunity to compensate your baby son, and accompany your mother's family.

She was thinking about the arrangements for the next two days, but Gu Yi behind her suddenly spoke, startling her!

"Sister-in-law! See! Gu Yi pointed to the small note pasted on the wooden door and shouted, "What is that?" ”

I saw a small note on the doorknob of the brown wooden door, and it seemed to have words written on it.

Chen Xingling hurriedly stuffed the duffel bag in his hand to Gu Yi, stepped forward and tore off the note.

- Brother Qi, Aunt Ying and I are here to find you. The road was long and difficult, and we had a hard time on the road. It's a pity that you are not at home on a business trip, and there is no one at home to take care of it, so Aunt Ying and I can only temporarily live in the guest house in the factory. I hope you will return soon and come to the guest house to pick us up soon.

There is a delicate name left in the signature office - Qin Tiantian.

Dizzy!

The woman and her mother-in-law came together!

Chen Xingling looked at the time at the end of the note and found that it was not recently, it was actually three days ago!

The mother-in-law came, and the quasi-junior who had always wanted to intervene in her marriage also came, and she came so "quietly" - it's amazing!

Gu Yi hurriedly came over curiously, and after reading the message on the paper in a few glances, his face turned pale in an instant, and he was frightened and hugged his luggage.

"My mom...... How did it come? She-she's not going to know anything, is she? ”

Didn't the eldest brother and sister-in-law already send her a telegram before? has already told her that she has come here to work, what else is the old mother doing?

As soon as Zhao Xiaoxing heard that her future mother-in-law was coming, she was immediately frightened and turned pale!

Chen Xingling was very calm, pasted the note back casually, and then took out the key to open the door.

Originally, there were two sets of keys to this suite, one was in Gu Qi's hands, and the other was left in the personnel office for backup. When they first arrived, Archie was not there, so the personnel office gave her a spare key.

Later, she thought that the key to the house was not good to have a spare in the hands of others, and the personnel department did not come to go back, so she secretly left.

Fortunately, she stayed, otherwise Li Ying and Qin Tiantian would have come over, and most of the personnel department would have given them the spare key, instead of arranging for them to go to the guest house outside.

There is a small guest house in the shipyard, just east of the main gate. There are three floors in total, with more than 20 rooms, large and small, and people usually come in and out, and they are all leaders and skilled workers who visit relatives or come to exchange and study.

The door opened, and she walked in quickly, and found that the doors and windows were tightly closed, and the house was deserted, with no smoke at all, just an extra layer of dust, and no more unnecessary people.

She turned her head and found that Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing were both stunned in place, a little crying and laughing.

"What's wrong? Is this scared? Don't be stunned, come in! ”

Zhao Xiaoxing couldn't help but look at the note on the doorknob, her face was pale and teary, and her face was at a loss.

Chen Xingling beckoned: "Don't touch that note, let it be pasted there." Fast! Come inside! Let's have a good meal first, take a shower and rest for the night. I'll think about what I want to do tomorrow. ”

Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing glanced at each other with complicated expressions, and entered the door one after another.

Chen Xingling quickly opened all the windows and doors, went into the kitchen, turned on the kerosene stove and started to boil water, then screwed the duffel bag back to the master bedroom, took off his coat and washed his face, and began to clean up in good spirits.

"Hey! You two don't be in a daze! Help with the cleaning! I was in charge of sweeping the floor, Ah Yi was in charge of mopping the floor, and Xiaoxing was in charge of wiping the dust, and I was in charge of cleaning the house before preparing dinner. ”

Gu Yi was about to cry and said, "Sister-in-law, do you still have the heart to eat?" My mom is here! We—what are we going to do now? She must have gone to the factory leader to inquire! ”
