Of course Wang Weidong knew that what brother Chen Jihong said was meant for him.

At the end of the drink, Chen Jicheng held the wine glass and toasted Wang Weidong: "Weidong, my sister is entrusted to you!"

Three days later, Chen Jicheng went to Dalian, and the army sent him to the military academy for further studies.

Another month later, news came out that Director Shi, who had been the director of Xiangyang Chemical Plant for five years, would soon be transferred back to the Beijing Ministry as director.

Director Shi's five years at Xiangyang Chemical Plant were the five years when wages and bonuses increased the fastest in Xiangyang Chemical Plant. Although everyone knows that this is mainly due to national reform and foreign trade, everyone has a good impression of him.

Since the establishment of the Xiangyang Chemical Plant, all leaders have worn blue uniforms like the workers and ridden bicycles to work. They have crowded together with the workers in the large canteen and sat down to eat together. There are very few leaders who have received bad reviews.

Li Yufeng finally gave in and was ready to accept Chen Jihong as his mute daughter-in-law. When they were practicing Hexiang Zhuang Kung Fu in the morning, Wang Haifu struck while the iron was hot and discussed with Chen Jihong's father, Lao Chen, who was his eldest disciple who taught Hexiang Zhuang Kung Fu, and decided that the two families would sit together for a meal.

The wedding was settled over a meal.

On the day of the meal, Wang Weidong and Chen Jihong went to the vegetable market early and bought a lot of chicken, duck and fish.

Li Yufeng felt a little dissatisfied and complained to Wang Haifu: "Knowing that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are coming to eat today, Weidong has spent a lot of money."

"On the day the advanced father-in-law and mother-in-law came to our house for dinner, Wei Dong also spent money. Have you forgotten? He also bought a bottle of Bamboo Leaf Green!" Wang Haifu said.

That time Qu Xiaomei's father drank too much, and the betrothal gift fell through.

Qu Xiaomei was also in a very unhappy mood. When she and Wang Xian were dating, Li Yufeng objected very strongly and lasted for a long time.

But this time Li Yufeng was defeated quickly. What does this mean? It means that in Li Yufeng's heart, she is worse than Chen Jihong, the mute!

In the back room, Wang Haifu and Lao Chen chatted. The two talked about recent events in Xiangyang Chemical Plant, such as the performance of the new factory director, their experience in practicing Hexiang Zhuang Gong, and then discussed getting two pairs of fishing rods together after next spring.

Go fishing by the river.

Li Yufeng chatted with Chen Jihong's mother. The two of them were about the same age and had similar jobs in the factory. They talked about things in the factory and the shortcomings of the family. They giggled from time to time. They had a common language.

Today is the day for the parents of both parties to meet, but grandma Huang Guiying did not attend. They are all people who have known each other for 20 or 30 years, so the politeness in the scene was omitted.

Wang Xianxian and Qu Xiaomei were sitting in the outer room waiting for dinner while listening to the conversation in the back room. Qu Xiaomei gradually understood why Li Yufeng did not agree with her marriage to Wang Xianxian. If her parents came to this house, Wang Haifu and Li Yufeng could only be polite.

Perfunctory will definitely not have so many common languages.

Chen Jihong was in the kitchen, killing fish, scaling and removing feathers from chickens, while Wang Weidong began to stew chicken and stir-fry meat, showing off his skill in frying and frying.

Two hours later, Chen Jihong brought the dishes prepared by Wang Weidonglu one after another to the table in the back room.

Old Chentou smelled the fragrance and said: "Weidong's craftsmanship is really good, no worse than the master chefs in state-owned restaurants!"

"Our family Jihong will be blessed from now on!" Chen Jihong's mother said.

At the dinner table, seven people were chatting while eating. The four old people did not take the purpose of today's meal to heart at all. Chen Jihong was embarrassed to raise his head during the entire meal.

Qu Xiaomei was very curious and wanted to know how much money Wang Haifu and Li Yufeng would spend when Wang Weidong got married.

After finishing the meal, Chen Jihong put away the dishes and brought tea.

The four old men finally began to talk about their children's marriage.

"Old Chen, you are a good carpenter. Make a sofa for Weidong and the others." Wang Haifu said.

Old Chen nodded and said, "I have already thought about this. In addition, I will make a three-door standing cabinet to store clothes."

"We will make new bedding for the young couple. Weidong's grandma lives with the young couple, and we will make a new bedding for the old lady," said Chen Jihong's mother.

From then on, it was all said and done with what the woman wanted to bring out.

"Wei Dong's mother and I have discussed it. We will buy them a sewing machine and a pressure cooker at home. We will not buy a radio. This is what they produce. They will just ride the old bicycle and give it to Ji Hong.

She bought the fabric herself for a hundred yuan and made whatever color and style she liked. They spent their own money to buy the pots, pans, needles, threads, and brains. The two of them also saved some money in the past two years," Wang Haifu said.

Since then, we have finished talking about the things the man wants to buy, which can be said to be a bit shabby.

Qu Xiaomei turned to look at Chen Jihong's parents. The two old people had no objections.

Qu Xiaomei's mentality has improved a lot. The money Wang Haifu and Li Yufeng spent on Wang Weidong was not as much as on Wang Xianxian's marriage.

"The house is really a problem!" Old Chentou said with emotion.

"Yes, the house is really a big problem!" Wang Haifu also echoed with emotion.

House allocation is an important benefit for employees of state-owned enterprises, but even if Xiangyang Chemical Plant builds 1,000 houses, it is impossible for Wang Weidong and Chen Jihong to get a share. They have no qualifications for house allocation.

In terms of property rights, all houses belong to enterprises or the state. Employees only have the right to use them and cannot buy or sell them at all. Therefore, Wang Weidong cannot buy a house even if he wants to.

Now Wang Weidong and his grandma rent a room. After getting married, they can't let three people live on the same bed, right? So Wang Weidong needs to rent a new house, a large house with two rooms.

"Both old men have retired and have nothing to do all day long. Starting tomorrow, they will go out to look for a house with better conditions. I don't care about money!" Wang Weidong said.

In the evening, Huang Guiying asked Wang Weidong to open the lid of the old wooden box. She fumbled and took out four large dark brown glass bottles from the wooden box.

Wang Weidong knew this bottle. It was a medicine bottle for compound licorice tablets. His grandmother always took this medicine.

"Finally, when you get married, all the money your grandpa and I saved over the decades are here. Take it all and buy whatever you need!" Huang Guiying said.

"That old lady of yours, you have money to deposit in the bank and earn interest, but you hide it in a bottle to attract worms!" Wang Weidong said angrily.

Because there was wax on the mouth of the medicine bottle and it had not been opened for a long time, the bottle cap and bottle body had solidified together. Chen Jihong spent a lot of effort to unscrew the four medicine bottles.

But the medicine bottle was filled with money, so she stretched out her two fingers and spent a long time before taking out a few big unity sheets.

"You're so stupid, don't take it out, I'll go find the axe!" Wang Weidong said.
Chapter completed!
