Chapter 498 Receive the Certificate
The day after the phone call, Zhu Yuliang asked Bai Xue to come to the village to report to Zhang An.
"Zhang An, tell me, what needs to be done these days, our leader asked me to follow your arrangements after I come."
Bai Xue smiled playfully, her tone of voice It was as if he had been transferred out for support by the unit leader.
"You can pull it over. Just tell them what you have publicized in other places before. I don't dare to arrange for you, the imperial envoy who came down from the city."
Zhang An couldn't tell that this girl was teasing him and retaliating for the joke she made on him and Zhang Ping.
I used to be a quiet and introverted little girl. Unexpectedly, she has become very talkative now. It is estimated that when she gets married to Zhang Ping, she will directly transform into a tigress. The honest Zhang Ping will definitely be... He's in charge.
"Okay, then I will just pick some random things to talk about for everyone. Anyway, the people in the village are much better than I thought, so there is no need to promote them too much."
Baixue actually also You know, this time the publicity is actually dispensable, it is just a formality.
She has been back with Zhang Ping a lot this year, and she has a certain understanding of the people in the village.
Under the guidance of Zhang Jianwen, the overall quality of the villagers in Changqing Village is relatively good.
Although I used to eat various protected animals in the mountains in the poor years, this has not happened for several years now.
Everyone’s support for the policy is higher than that of villagers in other nearby villages. This is all thanks to the fact that there is a good village chief in the village.
But this time Zhang An asked Bai Xue to come over, it was actually just a formality to show others. When others mentioned that there was winter hunting in the village, Zhang Jianwen would have the confidence to refute.
By the way, it can also satisfy Bai Xue's desire to follow Bai Xue into the mountains for hunting, and also take the opportunity to let her come to the village to stay for a few more days. After all, the uncle and aunt are watching eagerly.
"Anyway, you can do it according to your own ideas. You are professional in this area. For other things, you can go to my uncle. I can't figure out many things, so he has to step in."
Anyway, Zhang An has already lured people to the village, so all the remaining matters will naturally be left to Zhang Jianwen. After all, he is the village chief.
In the afternoon, Zhang Jianwen took people to clean up the large granary used in the village as a place for this training school.
In the evening, after eating, he began to go out to inform the people who decided to follow him into the mountains for winter hunting, just to eat after the meal.
The training officially started the next day. After breakfast, everyone went to the granary to gather.
Although the old warehouse was very spacious and empty, it was very cold.
But when everyone went there, they not only brought their own small benches, many of them also brought fire barrels.
Because of this cold weather, everyone knows that the warehouse is very cold, so we brought the fire barrels that our children usually use to go to school.
The fire barrels are all made of paint buckets. Although they are not big, one fire barrel is enough for two or three people to keep warm.
Because there were more people bringing fire buckets there, the entire warehouse was not as cold as before, but actually warmer than outside.
And these paint buckets have no paint residue anymore. They were burned in a fire when the children used them for the first time. Now the entire paint bucket is just a tin can, just nailed with a screwdriver or a nail. Countless holes.
Because everyone knows the dangers of burning paint, it must be cleaned first before it can be safely used by children at home.
Zhang Jianwen also felt very sorry for his future daughter-in-law. He was afraid that Bai Xue would be frozen, so he burned a bonfire next to her.
When Bai Xue introduced it to everyone, everyone listened very seriously, and no one dared to talk nonsense.
In the past, they, who were Zhang Ping's elders, would greet the two young men like elders every time they saw Bai Xue.
It's different now. Bai Xue's identity now is a working group member sent by the county, and everyone is a little shocked.
This training and study lasted for two days in total, so everyone went home to warm themselves by the fire and wait for the snowy day to come. After all, it was just a process.
On Saturday, Su Ying became busy because the final was about to begin and she had to give out the test questions.
After all, she is the only Chinese teacher in the second grade of Changqing Middle School, so she must do the test questions herself.
So when she got up in the morning, after giving her little thoughts to her mother-in-law, she took the carbon paper and began to write and draw.
There were no photocopiers in the school these days, so the teacher had to copy the questions for each exam on carbon paper and then print them out for the students to take the exam.
"Zhang An, why don't you come and copy it for me? Your handwriting should look better."
After Su Ying wrote a page of test questions on the manuscript paper, she shook her man Come over.
Because Zhang An's handwriting is very beautiful, the small regular script is square and square, just like the printed script.
So even before she came up with the question, she had already made up her mind about Zhang An. After all, he was her husband, and the free labor force would not be used in vain.
"Okay, why don't you go to the stove and write out the test questions first, and I'll copy them down for you."
Zhang An readily agreed to his wife's request because he felt sorry for Su Ying.
It was such a cold day that he had to write the question at least twice by himself. He didn’t want Su Ying to get started.
Although the stove at home is burning, carbon paper cannot be copied in a place with high temperature, otherwise the printout will be blurry, so you can only take it to the table next to you to copy.
So Zhang An asked Su Ying to go to the stove and use manuscript paper to write out the test questions, and he would be responsible for copying.
"Then you copy this page first, and I will continue to write the rest of the reading comprehension."
Su Ying sat next to the stove and copied the page that had been printed. The test questions were handed to Zhang An.
"By the way, wife, when are you going to have a holiday after the exam?"
Zhang An took the manuscript paper and copied it on the carbon paper while asking Su Ying.
“The exam starts the day after tomorrow and can be finished on Saturday. What’s wrong?”
Su Ying turned to look at the calendar at home, and then answered.
"Then wait until next week, let's go get the wedding photos, and take our son to register for household registration."
Although the two are already married, there was still a lot of trouble because of the previous marriage. Zhang An was not old enough, so he never went to get the certificate.
Zhang An has always felt like operating without a license, so since he turned 22 this year, he has been wanting to get a license.
It’s just that Su Ying has been in confinement since she gave birth to little Siqi. Finally the confinement was over. As a result, Su Ying’s maternity leave was gone and she had to go back to school.
So I can only wait until the winter vacation when the final exams are over.
"How about I ask other teachers to help me proctor the exam for a day, let's go first."
Su Ying also attaches great importance to the marriage certificate. She always feels that without a marriage certificate, she Marriage with Zhang An is not complete.
And this is the second most important thing. It is the most important thing to take your son to register, otherwise Xiao Siqi will always be a black market population.
“It’s not urgent anyway. It’s better not to bother other teachers during these two days. It won’t be too late to go after you finish proctoring the exam.”
The junior high school exams only last a few days, so Zhang An is not in a hurry now.
And the weather has not been very good these past few days. It has been a bit cloudy and rainy, which is not perfect.
"Okay, it's all up to your arrangement."
After hearing what Zhang An said, Su Ying no longer insisted.
In the following days, although it kept raining and the temperature got lower and lower, the winter snow that everyone had been looking forward to did not arrive. After Bai Xue stayed in the village for a few days, she couldn't sit still, so she ran over to find Zhang An.
"Zhang An, you said that my training is over. Isn't it inappropriate to stay here all the time? It would be bad if Director Zhu finds out, otherwise I will go back to work. ”
Except for the two days of training, Bai Xue has been in the village for three or four days.
Looking at how cold the weather was, she thought it would snow soon.
I didn’t expect that the snow this winter would be so reserved, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to fall yet.
"Oh, you just play here in a down-to-earth manner. You think Lao Zhu doesn't know why I called you here? It's the end of the year, and there's nothing wrong with you going back. Besides, if you want to come back after you go back, you can I’m going to ask for leave.”
When Bai Xue heard this, her eyes were as big as bells.
She has been worried that her boss will know that she has been fishing in troubled waters in the village these days. Her lover has long known about it, and she is the only one who is mentally at odds with her.
"So don't worry. If anything happens, Lao Zhu will call me."
After some comfort, Zhang An sent Bai Xue away.
The next morning, the drizzle that had been falling for the past few days disappeared, and the long-lost sun appeared in the sky.
Although I don’t feel much warmth, if the sun comes out, my mood will definitely be much better than on a rainy day.
Zhang An got up early, and Su Ying also woke up early.
Because today was Monday, they were going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the certificate. It was a happy day, so she got up very early.
With the long-lost sun in the sky, today should be considered a good day.
Su Ying spent a long time tidying up and making herself look beautiful. This was the first time since he was pregnant with Xiao Siqi that he had dressed up so carefully.
The same goes for little Siqi. Su Ying changed him into a set of red festive clothes and put on a woolen hat knitted by her.
After Su Ying tidied herself up, Zhang An took her to Wang Hua's place.
After all, the current Civil Affairs Bureau is not responsible for taking photos. You have to take photos outside and bring them over.
Instead of going to the city to take pictures, it is better to prepare them in the village, which is more convenient.
Arriving at Wang Hua Courtyard, Zhang An found that the man had not gotten up yet, so he knocked on the door to wake him up.
"It's Zhang An. What's the matter this early in the morning?"
After a while, Wang Fang yawned and opened the door and came out. It was Zhang An who was strange. asked.
"You have a red cloth background here? Take a photo for us. Today we are going to get a marriage certificate."
Zhang An did not beat around the bush and explained his purpose to Wang Hua straight to the point.
"Oh, then I have to congratulate you two. Come in quickly and I'll get the camera."
When Wang Hua heard that Zhang An said that he was going to get the marriage certificate, he suddenly lost his drowsiness and replied happily. Go inside and take the camera out.
“Congratulations were given last time, so let’s skip it this time.”
Zhang An helped put down the red cloth on the wall and smoothed it, and then pulled Su Ying to sit on the bench. Waiting on the bench for Wang Hua to take photos.
“This can’t be saved. After all, receiving the certificate is a happy event. Come on, you all look at me.”
I took the photo several times, and Wang Hua stopped when he felt satisfied. Come down.
Then I spent some time waiting for him to help me develop the photos.
Everything is ready, Zhang An is also ready to set off with his wife and children.
"Xiaoying, it's cold, please take this blanket with you and wrap some together when you get off the car."
Registering a household registration for your grandson is a big deal in Wang Fang's heart , these days those who are not registered are treated as black market residents, so if Xiao Siqi is not registered in her household registration book, she will not worry every day.
But before going out, she pulled a small blanket for the young couple. She was afraid that her grandson would be cold.
Then the family of three drove to the city, but this time they didn’t go far before Zhang An turned around and came back.
Because he was a little excited today, he forgot his household registration book when he went out.
By the time he came down from the stone pass, Wang Fang had already walked to the other side of the bridge with his household registration book.
"You kid, you can forget something as important as your household registration book. If you don't remember it until you go to the city, it will waste time again."
Wang Fang said He handed the household registration book to his son and chatted a few more words.
Looking back, she has not nagged her son for a long time.
In the past, when Zhang An didn't have a family, she would still say a few words from time to time.
But now that she has Su Ying as her daughter-in-law, she no longer nags Zhang An.
Save others from thinking that Zhang An’s mother is already married and is nagging her old mother.
When he arrived in the city, Zhang An did not go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Instead, he went to his father-in-law first to get Su Ying's household registration book.
Although the two are married, Su Ying's household registration is still with her father-in-law and has never moved there.
It is a bit troublesome to change the household registration these days, so many women in rural areas still have their household registration with their parents’ families even after they get married.
The couple had already discussed it in bed last night. When they received their marriage certificate today, they would move Su Ying's household registration to the village. This would save them the trouble of running around in the future.
However, Zhang An and the others arrived a little late. Wu Qiuping and Su Shaowen had already left for work, so they had to go to the unit to get the keys.
After a series of twists and turns, Zhang An finally prepared everything for the two of them to apply for a marriage certificate.
When I came to the Civil Affairs Bureau, there was no one there. This situation is normal. These days, many rural children get married early, and few people will take the initiative to apply for a marriage certificate.
But compared to previous years, it is much better now.
Only a few staff members ran to the stove to warm themselves by the fire. The management of the unit was not so strict these days, so they were relatively casual when they had nothing to do.
“Hello, what can I do for you?”
Seeing Zhang An's family of three come in, the middle-aged woman who had been sitting on the stove chatting quietly just now stood up and walked to Zhang An and the others to ask.
“We are here to apply for a marriage certificate.”
Zhang An did not feel any discomfort at all about this behavior of paying for the ticket after getting on the bus.
After all, this kind of situation is common in mountainous areas in this era, so there is no need to be embarrassed.
"Then follow me here."
Hearing that Zhang An and Su Ying were here to apply for a marriage certificate, the women in front of them seemed quite enthusiastic. After all, people like Zhang An and the others are now Not many people can take the initiative to apply for a marriage certificate.
