Male intellectuals of the era (4)

Yang Zheng looked at it and immediately locked the cabinet again, because if these things were discovered in this era, it would not be a good thing.

Yang was lying on the bed, thinking about nothing else, just thinking about how to make money.

At this time, he was too poor, and every household couldn't even afford to eat white-flour steamed buns, and Yang Zheng's mind was the most dangerous thing in this era - speculation.

Yang Zheng knew that he didn't have any skills, so he wanted to find someone to work with, and Yang Zheng had a candidate in mind.

In the next few days, Yang Zheng also slowly earned his work, and because of the captain's recognition of him and Yan Juanjuan's affairs, Yan Juanjuan usually began to send things to Yang Zheng openly.

On this day, Yang Zheng came to the captain's house.

"Uncle, aunt, I want to go to Comrade Xinxi, I hope you can marry her to me, this is a gift money. ”

When the captain's daughter-in-law saw a hundred yuan, her face was also smiling, not to mention anything else, usually other people's daughters-in-law are generally about fifty yuan, and this hundred yuan is not much.

And when I saw the thing wrapped in cloth, even if I didn't know what it was, the captain's daughter-in-law knew that it must be a good thing.

Moreover, at this time, Yan Juanjuan's three sisters-in-law were also standing aside, looking at the bride price with blank eyes.

When they saw a hundred yuan, they couldn't help but feel a little jealous, they were actually okay when they got married, and they gave sixty yuan, but compared with this hundred yuan, there was an obvious gap.

"Well, Juanjuanniang and I will find a time to see if there is a good day and auspicious day for you to give you half a banquet, recently, you write a marriage report to the team, go to the county to get the certificate, and tell Juanjuan's two brothers. ”

The captain explained the matter to Yang Zheng.

Yan Juanjuan stood aside, very shy, she didn't expect Yang Zheng to come up with so much money as a dowry.

"Everything is up to my uncle. ”

Yang Zheng said.

It didn't take long for the captain to hear that the fifth day of the next month was a good day, and it was better to get married.

Yang Zheng also began to work on the next wedding.

Because Yang is an educated youth, there is no fixed home in this place, so the wedding is simply held at the captain's house.

Yang Zheng found a sunny day and took Yan Juanjuan to the county together, and after receiving the certificate, Yang Zheng took Yan Juanjuan to the supply and marketing cooperatives here, originally planning to go to the department store market in the city, but the conditions did not allow it.

At this time, the family conditions are particularly good, and the marriage is the "four major items" of bicycles, watches, sewing machines, and radios, and if you want to buy these things, you need not only money, but also industrial tickets.

Yang Zheng didn't want to wronged Yan Juanjuan, so he took dozens of industrial tickets from his cabinet before coming again, although the four major pieces could not be bought, but it was still okay to buy a watch for Yan Juanjuan and a sewing machine.

Yang Zheng has a watch of his own, which is a plum blossom brand watch bought from Shanghai when his family had not encountered this incident.

"Yang, Yang Zhiqing, you don't need to buy it for me, and I don't usually need it. ”

Yan Juanjuan was very surprised to see Yang Zheng take herself to the watch selling area.

"It's okay, we didn't prepare for the four major things to get married, we are already very wronged by you, don't worry, when the future conditions are good, all the others have it, you will have it." ”

What Yang Zheng said was very ordinary, it wasn't that Yang was coaxing Yan Juanjuan, but that he felt that it was nothing, after all, in his life, these things were nothing.

In Yan Juanjuan's ears, it was different, she and Yang Zheng had not known each other for a long time, but she knew that Yang was the person she was going to marry.

Yan Juanjuan still remembers the first time she paid attention to him because he was good-looking, and among a bunch of black men, he was particularly prominent, and with the next relationship, Yan Juanjuan was even more fascinated by him, Yang Zheng and all the men she knew were different.

Yang is humorous, funny, and personable, and the men around him will even fight for a pound of food.

"How do you look at this watch?"

Yang Zheng picked a watch that was also a Shanghai plum blossom brand, but it was a lot worse than the one in Yang Zheng's hand, but it was already very good in this place.

Yan Juanjuan liked it very much when she saw it at first sight, although she was the most favored child in the family, but in this case, the captain could only say that they could give Yan Juanjuan the best life, and luxury accessories like watches were simply impossible.

Yang Zheng saw Yan Juanjuan's reaction, and then paid directly.

At this time, the plum blossom watch belongs to the third-level table, the price is 195 yuan, which is equivalent to the five months salary of a young worker, and it also requires 30 "industrial coupons", and 20 yuan of wages only give an "industrial coupon".

Yang Zheng took this out secretly from his home, because when the Yang family had not yet had an accident, there were all kinds of bills and cash in the bank.

Regarding money, Yang Zheng didn't care how much he had, but he also took two whole bundles at the beginning, and when he counted it, it was 10,000 yuan.

However, Yang Zheng also knows that wealth is not exposed, so he would rather take advantage of others than take out money easily.

After all, if some people with a heart see it, it won't be a matter of losing money at that time, and you will have to go in if you are not careful.

Yan Juanjuan saw that Yang Zheng took out so much money and industrial tickets, and the salesman kept saying to Yan Juanjuan:

"Girl, you are really blessed, your partner can buy you a watch with so much money, but it is really not much. ”

Yan Juanjuan was also embarrassed.

杨正 says:

"This is my daughter-in-law. ”

The salesman was another compliment.

Speaking of which, Yan Juanjuan was very surprised, she didn't know where Yang Zheng got so much money, even if it was, there were industrial tickets, her own two brothers, usually only one or two industrial tickets a month.

It wasn't until she walked out of the store that Yan Juanjuan asked:

"Yang, Yang Zhiqing, this is too expensive, you, you can't do anything. ”

Seeing Yan Juanjuan's nervous appearance, Yang Zhengren wanted to laugh unacceptably, and originally wanted to tease her, but this era is really not suitable for jokes, so he said:

"Don't worry, these are my own, and I collected them myself when there was no accident at home before. ”

Hearing Yang Zheng say this, Yan Juanjuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Subsequently, Yang Zheng took Yan Juanjuan to buy two new pieces of cloth.

Because there is no department store in this place, there are only some cloth sellers in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and almost all the people here sell their own cloth and go back to make their own clothes, and almost all the girls are good at work.

Yan Juanjuan is no exception, Yang Zheng chose everything with Yan Juanjuan, and in the end, Yan Juanjuan chose a piece of pink flower cloth, and also picked a piece of navy blue cotton cloth for Yang Zheng.

Yang Zheng was previously responsible for giving money.

Because at the time of the wedding, there must be a lot of people coming to the door, and some snacks and small candy are indispensable.

However, at this time, almost all of them are inferior fruit candy, but in the eyes of the locals, they are all luxury accessories.

Yang Zheng casually picked four catties, and when Yan Juanjuan saw it, she immediately said:

"It's too much, it's not that much. ”

Almost all people mean one or two catties, just give one or two pieces to taste, there are really not many people like Yang Zheng who are so generous.

"It's okay, when the time comes, I'll give you and Da Mao to eat together. ”

Yang Zheng said.

Hearing Yang Zheng say this, Yan Juanjuan didn't say anything more, after all, Yang Zheng could think of himself, which showed that he really cared about himself.

The two of them walked around again, bought some other things, and it wasn't until noon that they began to walk towards the factory where Yan Juanjuan's two elder brothers were.

Because Yan Juanjuan's second brother and third brother's factories were in the same place, the four of them went to the state-run restaurant for dinner at noon and night.

Yan Juanjuan's two elder brothers still treated Yang Zheng with all kinds of considerations, after all, in their hearts, their sisters were no worse than those little girls in the city.

However, Yang Zheng also performed well, and chatted with Yan Juanjuan's two brothers quite harmoniously.

Yan Juanjuan also came to the state-run restaurant for dinner for the first time, she was very surprised, usually the captain would come here to accompany the leader to eat, but she had never brought her children over, and most people would not come here, after all, the consumption here is not cheap.

With this money, it is better to buy two catties of pork and go back, and the stomach of a large family will be oily.

"What do you want to eat, Juanjuan?"

Since receiving the certificate, Yang Zheng has begun to change his name, after all, a couple, "Comrade Yan Juanjuan" and "Yang Zhiqing" are very rusty when they come and go.

Yan Juanjuan also wanted to change her words, but she was embarrassed for a while, and Yang Zheng was not in a hurry.

"I can do it all. ”

Yan Juanjuan is not greedy, although she usually eats meat not much, she has never been hungry, and the captain is also strict with the education of children, although she loves Yan Juanjuan very much, but she will not spoil her.

Yang Zheng asked the other two uncles again, and got the same answer, so Yang Zheng ordered casually, one pork ribs, one braised pork, two vegetarian dishes, and five meat buns.

Yan Juanjuan and her two brothers were a little surprised to hear that Yang Zheng had ordered so much, but they didn't say much.

And Yan Juanjuan's two elder brothers also have a plan, and when they settle the bill later, they will settle it, after all, this Yang Zhiqing looks powerless, plus the rumors in the village, they have also heard about it, don't be embarrassed at that time.

Yan Juanjuan is not worried, because when she bought something today, Yan Juanjuan knew that Yang Zheng was rich, after all, the two of them had already become husband and wife, and they were willing to invite their brother to a meal.

Not to mention, Yan Juanjuan herself really wanted to eat it, after all, she still ate the meat she ate last time Yang Zheng went to the house as a guest, and she had been hungry for so long.

At this time, the state-run restaurants were still very affordable, and each dish was a large plate, and there was no comparison with the meals of later generations.

Not to mention this meat bun, the meat filling is particularly full, and the juice is also direct when you bite into it, and each one is very thick.

When these four people have finished eating, this will also be solved, and there is still one meat bun left, which is deservedly given to Yan Juanjuan.

Yang was getting up to pay, and his two eldest brothers also got up immediately.

"I'll go and tie it up, you wait here. ”

Yan Juanjuan's second brother spoke.

Yang Zheng stopped him and said:

"Second brother, today it was me and Juanjuan who invited you and the third brother to dinner, don't rob me. ”

Yan Juanjuan also said:

"Yes, second brother, let Yang ...... Let's go. ”

Yan Juanjuan's second brother saw that his sister said this, so he didn't rob it, and understood that the little couple should have money in their hands.

At the end of the meal, I ate twelve yuan, which is nearly the cost of some ordinary families for a month.

When Yang Zheng and Yan Juanjuan were sent away, Yan Juanjuan's second brother and third brother chatted together and said:

"Second brother, it seems that today, the educated youth our little sister is looking for is still good. ”

Yan Juanjuan second brother said:

"It's okay, but it still depends on his performance in the future, he is an educated youth, and I don't know if he will return to the city in the future. ”

"Hey, look at our little sister's appearance, we have identified this Yang Zhiqing, what we can do is to prepare more dowry for our little sister, so that she can live a better life in the future, after all, this married person is not as good as before. ”

"yes!"

These two brothers are worried here, Yang Zheng and Yan Juanjuan are also worried, these two people accidentally bought too many things, big bags and small bags, it is very difficult to hold them in their hands, plus there is no car yet, the journey back is more than ten miles, it is not easy.

"Are you tired, or give it to me. ”

Yan Juanjuan saw that Yang Zheng was a little struggling, and said.

After all, Yan Juanjuan herself is used to doing farm work, and her strength has also been exercised, while Yang Zheng is usually too lazy to do it, and now she has no strength at all.

Hearing Yan Juanjuan say this, Yang Zheng's face was also a little embarrassed, but seeing that Yan Juanjuan was really no problem, he still handed a package in his hand to Yan Juanjuan.

"If you're tired, give it to me. ”

Yan Juanjuan also nodded.

Yang Zheng and Yan Juanjuan had been walking nearly half of the way before a donkey cart slowly came over.

"Yo, isn't this the Juanjuan of the captain's family?"

The man driving the donkey cart said.

"Uncle, it's me, are you going back to the village? Can you give us a ride?"

Yan Juanjuan immediately asked.

The one who drove the donkey cart said:

"No problem, come on. ”

Yang Zheng was relieved when he heard this, and then put the things on the donkey cart and pulled Yan Juanjuan to sit on it together.

On the way, the driver asked:

"How do you buy so many things?"

After all, at this time, every penny has to be broken and spent, and who can afford to buy so many things.

"Uncle, aren't I going to get married here, come to the county to buy something. ”

Because Yan Juanjuan is familiar with this person, Yan Juanjuan said.

When this person heard this, he was also very happy, "I'm going to get married, this is a good thing, our Juanjuan is a beauty in ten miles and eight villages, tell my uncle when the time comes, I also have to drink happy wine!"

Yan Juanjuan also said immediately:

"No problem. ”

"He's an educated youth from the village, right?"

The man looked at Yang Zheng and asked.
