Chapter 62

Not to mention the tickets, just the five thousand yuan is definitely an astronomical figure in this era.

In those days, the average wage was only 25 to 30 yuan.

An ordinary working-class family cannot earn this much money in ten years.

Even if you can earn it, after deducting expenses, it would be extremely difficult to save that much money.

In the end, he just waved his hand and gave it to me for 5,000 yuan without any care!

But think about it, in the 1980s in my previous life, when the family was wealthier, my parents gave me a larger dowry. In comparison, these five thousand yuan were nothing.

Yang Ling said, “Five thousand is not a lot~

The main reason is that your dad and I came here this time, and we didn’t bring much money or tickets.

If it were in Kyoto, you would have to receive a dowry of at least 100,000 or 80,000 yuan.

Take this five thousand yuan and use it first.

I’ll give you some extra money when my parents return to Kyoto.”

Lu Wan silently sighed in her heart, how nice it was to have wealthy parents.

At least, she never has to worry about money.

Now, her parents gave her so much money and tickets, enough for her and Su Zhenhua to live a luxurious life.

Lu Wan’s nose felt sore, and she said to Yang Ling, “Mom, you are so kind!”

Hearing Lu Wan’s words, Yang Ling raised the corners of her lips, “Silly child, you are my precious daughter, and your parents hope that you live a good life.”

“Well, Mom, I will definitely live a good and happy life and will never make you worry about me again.”

Yang Ling held back her tears and nodded. “Okay, as long as you are fine, Mom will be thankful.”

After giving the money for safekeeping, Yang Ling gave a few more instructions. Considering that they would be busy the next day, the mother and daughter went to bed early.

Although the wedding banquet was held in the afternoon, the educated youth point and the Su family had already started to get busy in the morning.

The educated youth at the educated youth site all expressed their congratulations and gave Lu Wan gifts.

Some gave her self-knitted shoes, some gave her pillowcases, and the most expensive gift was vanishing cream.

Gifts may be big or small, but they are all a token of your thoughtfulness.

Those who didn’t give any gifts just took the gift money, some were 50 cents, some were one dollar.

In this era, the average gift given by city dwellers is only one or two dollars.

The country people were poor, and the educated youth did not have very good conditions either, so being able to give away fifty cents or one yuan was considered a great gift.

During this period, the educated youth at the educated youth point got along very happily with the Lu family, and they had so many delicious foods to eat every day. Of course, they had to show their appreciation when Lu Wan got married.

Lu Wan packed and sealed all the gifts given by everyone and would take them to the Su family later.

At the educated youth site, Lu Jun and Yang Ling also prepared candies.

Anyone who comes to congratulate will be given wedding candy.

He was even more generous to the educated youth at the educated youth sites. When others got married, he gave each of them one or two candies to sweeten their mouths, which was already generous enough.

Lu Jun and Yang Ling each gave a handful of fruit candies.

Not to mention melon seeds, peanuts and the like, each person grabbed two big handfuls.

When other people from the production team came over, basically adults and children could get three or four candies.

After hearing about the generosity of Lu Wan’s parents, many people came to the educated youth site to congratulate them throughout the morning.

At this time, everyone felt even more deeply the wealth of the Lu family.

Rich people are different. They give out candies just like anyone else does, whether they pay for them or not.

As an educated youth, Liu Lili also took a handful of fruit candies and a lot of melon seeds and peanuts.

Xu Fang had always disliked Liu Lili, and now she couldn’t help but retort, “Liu Zhiqing, you only feel comfortable accepting wedding candy because everyone has given you gifts.

You didn’t give me any gifts, how dare you accept it.”

Liu Lili blushed at what Xu Fang said, but she was reluctant to return the wedding candy and melon seeds and peanuts.

Seeing that everyone else was having good food while she couldn’t eat anything, Liu Lili was of course unwilling to accept it.

Since it was given to her by the Army, why couldn’t she accept it?

Don’t miss it!

What’s the point of having face? If you want face, you have to be hungry.

She cares more about her belly than her face.

Liu Lili held it in for a while, then replied to Xu Fang, “I didn’t eat yours, why do you care?”

Xu Fang rolled her eyes, “It’s disgusting that people like you only know how to take advantage of others!”

After saying that, Xu Fang ignored Liu Lili.

Many people from the Su family also came to congratulate them.

The Su family sent wedding candies to every household in the morning.

We were so busy that before we knew it, it was noon.

After lunch, Su Zhenhua was eager to pick up Lu Wan.

Because he was going to marry Lu Wan, he was so excited that he couldn’t sleep the whole night yesterday.

Although he didn’t sleep, Su Zhenhua was more energetic than usual.

I am still full of energy now, and have endless strength.

“Mom, when are we going to pick someone up?” Su Zhenhua urged Zhu Aihua anxiously.

To exaggerate a little, Su Zhenhua has said this eight hundred times today.

Seeing her son’s anxious look, Zhu Aihua smiled and said, “Why are you in such a hurry? Wait a minute!”

But Zhu Aihua knew very well why this boy was so anxious.

Why else? Isn’t it just for Lu Zhiqing?

He couldn’t wait to marry the girl, how could he not be so impatient?

This kid, who usually looks quite steady, became agitated at this moment.

When Su Zhenhua heard Zhu Aihua say this, he couldn’t help feeling disappointed for a moment.

“Ah? Mom, do we have to wait a little longer? It’s already past noon…” Su Zhenhua muttered.

Zhu Aihua shook her head and comforted Su Zhenhua, “It will be soon. Don’t worry. Go back to the house and put on new clothes and shoes. Let’s get ready and go to the educated youth center to pick up the bride.”

After hearing what Zhu Aihua said, Su Zhenhua hurried back into the house and started changing into new clothes and new shoes.

The clothes were made of fabric bought by Lu Wan’s parents and handmade by Zhu Aihua.

The shoes were the small leather shoes that Lu Wan bought for him.

In this era, because the living conditions were so poor, being able to wear new clothes was considered a luxury when getting married.

To the country folk, Su Zhenhua’s outfit was something they couldn’t even imagine.

Who can afford to buy small leather shoes?

To buy a pair of small leather shoes, not to mention the leather shoe tickets, the price alone is equivalent to a family’s annual income in the production team.

Su Zhenhua is tall and strong, and very handsome.

When she changed into new clothes and new shoes, people couldn’t take their eyes off her.

Her temperament has improved a lot, and she is like a city person.

After Su Zhenhua changed his clothes and shoes, he walked up to his family members with some restraint, “Mom, big brother, second brother, and little sister, please take a look at my outfit. Is it okay?…”

For the first time, Su Zhenhua felt a little unconfident about himself.

She was afraid that she wasn’t good-looking enough and that standing in front of Lu Wan would disappoint her.

Seeing Su Zhenhua dressed up in a new look, the Su family members all praised him.

Su Jinju said with a playful smile, “Third brother, you are so well dressed, so handsome! I didn’t expect that my third brother could look so good after dressing up!”

Su Zhenhua’s face slightly heated up after being praised by Su Jinju, “Don’t tease your third brother.”

Su Jinju stopped joking and said seriously, “Third brother, no, I’m serious. I’m not kidding you.”
