Chapter 325: Determining the date of marriage
This marriage cannot be married, and the dead cannot afford to die!
I don't know when it began, the counties and districts of Qingbei City gradually developed the bad habit of thin maintenance and thick burial.
When the parents were alive, the children didn't care about their parents, and they usually didn't see anyone at all, but after the parents died, the children began to feast.
Putting the cart before the horse, as if doing a big job, is filial piety.
The funeral became a tool for comparison.
The greater the pomp, the more vanity is satisfied.
Do they think that people live just to fight for a breath?
And to put it bluntly, vanity is at work. 🄼.🆅𝓞𝓓🅃𝙒.🅲𝙊𝙢
And want to gain vanity,
Comparison has become the easiest and most practical method.
As a result, many families who are not wealthy also have swollen faces and become fat.
If you have 5 tables in your house, I will set 10 tables in my house, and if you have 10 tables in my house, I will have 15 tables in my house.
The way in which money is spent is also becoming more and more outrageous:
Your family invites a band, my family invites a troupe, and some even invite Taoist priests and mages to do the dojo.
The tombs are also getting bigger and bigger, and the more they are repaired, the more luxurious they are, and some of them are half an acre of land.......
The wind of comparison is like a stimulant, which makes everyone happy as if they were fighting chicken blood.
Combined with the problems found in the investigation, in response to the high bride price, Tian Ye put forward the slogan of "zero bride price" in the proposal: for the funeral reform, Tian Ye's plan is to change the burial to cremation, all the deceased are treated equally, and each village and town should build a unified cemetery, requiring the cremation rate to reach 100%, and at the same time include it in the assessment scope of cadres.
It turned out later that Tian Ye made a fuss about these two things, as the first three axes of his own office, and could only say that "the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny", and the first three axes were all smashed on the stone.....
The Xu family's banquet was lively, and it took more than two hours to end.
Relatives are saying goodbye one after another.
The custom of Xiaoqiao Village is that you can't leave empty-handed after eating, and a large trunk gift prepared by Lin Weixin and Liu Man just came in handy.
Xiang Ming warmly invited Xu Yuanzhou and Lin Ruoxi to live in the Anling County State Guest House, saying that the conditions there were better than at home, the road was not far, and it would take more than 40 minutes from Xiaoqiao Village to the county.
In fact, Xiang Ming's heart still wants to have more contact with Xu Yuanzhou and Lin Ruoxi, deepen the relationship, and then do the friendship of the landlord at night.
Lin Ruoxi smiled and politely refused Xiang Ming's invitation: "Secretary Fang, since I want to marry Yuanzhou, the Xu family is my family, and I come to Xiaoqiao Village, how can I live in my own home?" What's more, Xiaoqiao Village is so beautiful, I really like to live here. ”
When Xiang Ming heard Lin Ruoxi say this, he was even more convinced of her, although he was born in a high-ranking family, he did not dislike the Xu family in the countryside at all, which was really commendable.
Even Xu Ziang, Wu Lan and his wife were moved when they heard it, and they felt that their son's vision was really good, and they found such a well-informed girl.
Before Xiang Ming left, he shook hands with Xu Yuanzhou and said goodbye, he said to Xu Yuanzhou very sincerely: "Yuanzhou, if you have time, you must come to the county party committee to find me, I want to learn from you well, learn from you, more than half a year of hard work, you are stunned to improve a national-level poor county, suddenly increased by dozens of places, you have to tell me well, what is the way here." ”
Xu Yuanzhou laughed and said modestly: "Xiang Ming, how can I have any Taoism?" If you really want to say that there is a way, it is one point, you must have the people in your heart all the time, and truly be a caring person for the people. ”
Xiang Ming sighed, as if talking to himself: "Yes, I have people in my heart all the time, this is easier said than done." It is said that the heart is selfless and the world is wide, but how many of our cadres can truly be selfless in the heart? ”
After speaking, he got into the car and waved goodbye to Xu Yuanzhou and Lin Ruoxi.
Xu Jinnian saw that Secretary Fang was gone, and hurriedly said to Xu Yuanzhou: "Yuanzhou, Secretary Fang is here to investigate in Heqiao Town, and I have to go back to the town quickly." ”
Xu Yuanzhou waved his hand disappreciatively and said, "Go quickly, work is important!" "Nope
After sending off relatives and friends, Lin Ruoxi opened the back seat of the car and took out the clothes he specially ordered in the provincial capital of Shengzhou and gave to Xu Yuanzhou's parents: what he gave to Xu Ziang was a set of navy blue suits that he specially customized; What was given to Wu Lan was a down jacket.
The two of them couldn't close their mouths with joy, and said in a loud voice: "Ruoxi, you can come with Yuanzhou, we are already very happy, and you also brought us gifts, and spent a lot of money, right?" ”
"Uncle and aunt, that's a little bit of my heart, it doesn't cost much."
Lin Ruoxi smiled and said very well-behaved.
"Next time, don't bring any more gifts." Wu Lan told her.
"Auntie, I have a number." Lin Ruoxi did not answer their questions directly, but changed the topic and asked Xu Yuanzhou: "Yuanzhou, I received so many red envelopes, how to deal with it?" ”
"That's a greeting gift from the elders, you just accept it. But ........" Xu Yuanzhou paused before saying, "We have to take a gift book."
