Chapter 21 Breaking up this marriage [Please pursue reading, please read that reader, grandpa, I want it]

[Continue to the 3000-word chapter, please read it]

I am just here to work.

At the same time, he is also a passer-by who can add a bit of popularity to the host's house.

Just eat in peace and have a round belly, that's all.

But he couldn't stand the insistence of both parties, so he had to do justice himself. If you eat someone else's meal, you have to do the work for them.

What's more, I only spent 5 cents to have such a sumptuous dinner?

So Han Xiaokang felt that if he didn't do some work, he would really feel a little guilty.

"well--"

Han Xiaokang sighed: "Let's put aside the ingredients for now.

Let’s not even mention the night spirit and the feudal superstition of Baishaqiu. If it gets to the ears of the district office cadres, I guarantee you won’t be able to eat it!

I said Uncle Wu Qi, I heard your daughter’s cry just now, it seems like she is still very young, right?”

Wu Laoqi's face, which was already flushed, became even redder now, "My Aju is already 16 years old, so she's not young! Plant the seedlings early and thresh the grain early, and give birth to children early to enjoy happiness."

Isn’t that what we people in the mountains have passed down from our elders?”

During this period, the legal age for women to get married was 18. But in rural areas, many girls started families very early.

Therefore, Wu Laoqi's statement is actually acceptable to most people.

But Han Xiaokang shook his head, "No, the superiors advocate freedom of love and autonomy in marriage. Arranged marriages like yours are unacceptable."

Wu Laoqi was a "small land" before liberation.

He used to come from a well-to-do family, and his wife had been raised at home since she was a child for generations.

When they are old enough, they will have sex and then have a good meal.

Therefore, Wu Laoqi, who cannot change his old feudal ideas for a while, is willing to follow what Han Xiaokang said, "Comrade, we are here according to local customs. Now even the wedding has been held, and this wedding must be

Knot."

Han Xiaokang shook his head: "Back off. If you go to the district office, you won't even be able to get your marriage certificate."

Wu Laoqi jumped to his feet, "Who cares about that red book? Just ask the production team, who has a marriage certificate?"

Oh, are you fighting with me?

"Bang——"

A loud bang!

I saw Han Xiaokang slam the table: "Do you have the final say on this matter, or do I have the final say?!"

Wu Laoqi had been punished a lot, and anyone who glared at him would make him tremble with fear.

"I'm gay, it seems like I'm my daughter's father."

"no!"

Han Xiaokang slammed his hunting license on the table, then immediately took it back.

He scolded sternly: "How dare you say you don't care about red books? Come on, take a good look. Are you still not comfortable with red books?

Good on you, Wu Laoqi!

Not to mention a blatant arranged marriage, and how dare you not swear an oath in front of an old man when you get married?

Can this be considered a marriage?

Hey, do you still have the law in your eyes? Do you want me to drag you to the district office? This matter is settled like that!"

The two parties involved, who were scared to death from the public servants, were shocked when they saw Han Xiaokang's stunned expression!

After they stretched their necks and glanced at the red notebook on the table, Han Xiaokang put it away quickly, and neither of them could see it clearly.

This doesn't matter.

Anyway, in their minds, those who can take out red books from their pockets should be public servants.

Very cool!

So Wu Laoqi and the thin old man looked at each other.

"retreat!"

The two said in unison and agreed very simply.

Han Xiaokang grinned:

That’s right!

They are all new members of the production team and part of the big family of the "Advanced Agricultural Cooperative".

It would be nice to discuss everything with each other and be harmonious.

Getting married costs money, and breaking off an engagement is not free.

So the two bad old men who couldn't become in-laws began to settle accounts with each other:

There will be a banquet tonight.

It cost Wu Laoqi a sum of money and some food.

So the final result of the discussion between the two was a bride price of 6 yuan and 80 cents, including 20 kilograms of rice and 20 kilograms of cornmeal sent by the man.

Each returns 2/3.

But Wu Laoqi ate most of the food, and spent some money on medicine for his wife.

Wu Laoqi faced the man who was eager to settle the matter and was constantly urged.

Being short of money, he could only turn to Han Xiaokang for help.

"I'll lend you the shortfall."

This time I went into the mountains by myself, carrying a big sack on my back.

There are grains, salt, chili noodles in it.

So Han Xiaokang generously handed over the grain and money to Wu Laoqi, "The production team is at the end of the year. After you divide the rations, I will naturally come to collect them."

Han Xiaokang felt that he would often pass by Wujiazhai and go hunting in the mountains in the future.

Now it would not be a bad thing to lend Wu Laoqi some money and food to let him settle the matter.

In the future, when you go into the mountains by yourself, you can stop here for a while.

I just lent him a small amount of money, not for free.

Anyway, in this era, people who dare to default on their debts have basically disappeared.

If anyone owes a debt, he must pay it back!

If you are a farmer, you can ask the production team to help you deduct it. If you have a work unit, you can ask his leader.

Even if he is a homeless person in the city, he can still go to the street office.

The cadres gave him a buck of his ration book!

Let’s see who dares to default on his debt?

Wait until the man and his son get the money and food.

Before leaving,

The thin old man suddenly picked up the corn wine on the table, and Gululu started to drink it, "Son, wine is a grain essence. The more you drink, the younger you will be. You should hurry up and give me two bowls, otherwise you will lose a lot!"

"Dad, I have tuberculosis and I can't drink alcohol."

"You have to drink even if you don't want to! I'm going to arrange a marriage for you without even getting a hair out of you. If you don't drink two bowls of wine and go back and pay for so much food, won't your conscience hurt?"

"."

After dinner, Han Xiaokang stood up and said goodbye.

It was at the moment when he bent down to pick up the backpack and pick up the riding rifle that Han Xiaokang vaguely felt that there was a pair of eyes secretly observing him behind the window lattice of Wu Laoqi's house.

Very bright and pure.

——————

The place where Han Xiaokang lives tonight is a member's house temporarily arranged by the production team leader, called Wujuren.

This person had just gone to Wu Laoqi's house for a meal. The food in his house was not very good. A crow rests on a pig's back. No one should blame anyone. Therefore, there is no need for Wuju people to avoid suspicion.

really!

His family lives in a blue brick house with large tiles.
