After Gu Zhirong got married, Wu Xiujuan began to pay attention to Gu Jinyan's marriage.

"Ayan, what are your parents' rules for your marriage?"

"I don't know." Gu Jinyan said.

No, now like the original book, Gu Dahe and his wife have no money, and his marriage has been temporarily put on hold.

Now that he came here, he didn't want to marry a wife. Of course, if you meet someone you like, that's another story.

"Then do you have a girl you like?" Wu Xiujuan asked enthusiastically.

"No." Gu Jinyan shook his head.

"Ayan, you are so excellent, there must be many girls who like you." Wu Xiujuan is so confident.

"Uncle, I don't want to get married for the time being." Gu Jinyan said.

"What nonsense are you talking about, men should be married and women should be married. You are 22 years old, and the boys and children of the same age will all leave."

"Uncle, I really don't want to get married now, and I won't talk about it when I meet the girl I like. Late. I don't want to get married for the sake of marriage." Gu Jinyan was afraid, and his uncle went to mention it to Gu Dahe and his wife just like the original book.

After all, Wu Xiujuan was just the uncle in the next room. Gu Jinyan said so, and she couldn't say anything else.

The bright spring has passed quietly, and the hot summer is gradually approaching.

This time, Gu Jinyan brought Gu Zhirong the news that he was going to join the army from the provincial capital.

"A Rong, come out quickly, your brother is here." Mother Ke saw Gu Jinyan first.

"Hello, uncle and aunt, this is what Jianjun asked me to bring to you." Gu Jinyan gave the malted milk essence in his hand to Mother Ke.

"Trouble you, I'll make you a glass of sugar water."

"Don't bother."

"Brother." Gu Zhirong came out of the room at this time.

"The application to join the army has come down, you need to pack up and go with the car in a few days." Gu Jinyan said to Gu Zhirong.

"Well, thank you brother." Gu Zhirong was very happy. Although the family treats her well, she still looks forward to joining the army.

After the matter was finished, Gu Jinyan was about to leave.

"Brother, wait." Gu Zhirong said and ran into the room, and ran out after a while.

"Brother, I made this for you, you can wear it." Gu Zhirong handed the clothes she was holding to Gu Jinyan.

Gu Jinyan didn't refuse, he stretched out his hand to take it, a really good shirt and a pair of black trousers. This is the cloth he gave Gu Zhirong as a dowry.

Now that the policy is not as strict as before, every time Gu Jinyan travels to the provincial capital, he will dump some industrial products such as pots and kettles that are in short supply in the town and sell them on the black market. It will also buy agricultural products such as rice and sweet potatoes and bring them to the provincial capital to sell.

By the way, Gu Jinyan developed Deng Aiguo to do it together.

Deng Aiguo was responsible for selling the industrial products brought back to the black market and purchasing agricultural products.

After tossing back and forth like this, Gu Jinyan's purse slowly swelled up.

Gu Jinyan delivers half a catty of meat to Gu Dahe and his wife every two weeks, and occasionally candies and candies or cans of malted milk.

As a result, the villagers are praising Gu Jinyan for his filial piety, and knowing that he feels sorry for his parents. As for the previous matter, everyone said that Gu Dahe and his wife must have done something very excessive, otherwise, how could such a good young man let his mother cry.

Seeing that Gu Jinyan was promising, everyone wanted to tell Gu Jinyan about his daughter, niece, granddaughter and niece. They all found Gu Dahe and his wife.

Another year passed.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Gu Dahe and Huang Xiuju mentioned their marriage to Gu Jinyan with a smile. They are very proud, their son is promising, and there are too many candidates for daughter-in-law.

After Gu Jinyan listened to them patiently, Liangliang said, "I don't have the money to marry a wife, do you have money for me?"

Gu Dahe and Huang Xiuju stiffened.

At the beginning of the year, many people wanted to be matchmakers for their son. The son was 22. They also wanted him to start a family, so that they could have their grandson as soon as possible.

The main thing is that the son is really detached from them. In addition to sending things, there is no more thoughtful words. No matter what they do or say about them, my son always looks at me without saying a word, making them very powerless and helpless.

If the son gets married, he has to come back home, with a daughter-in-law in the middle, and maybe something will change.

But considering the lack of money, neither of the couple dared to mention it. Now that they thought that their son should have saved the money, they only mentioned it.

Gu Dahe didn't believe it, and asked, "How come there is no money?"

Gu Jinyan spread his hands and said, "I just don't have money."

Huang Xiuju said, "Last year, after working for half a year, I added so much dowry to A Rong. It's been a year, why haven't I saved the money."

Gu Jinyan smiled: "I saw that you parents didn't prepare a dowry for your sister, so you had to budget half a year's salary to prepare a dowry for your sister."

"You really are. , there is no need to buy that pair of watches. So precious things, A Rong doesn't need to use it..." Huang Xiuju saw Gu Jinyan's face sinking, and she couldn't speak anymore.

"Gu Zhimei's job is no need to look for it. It's good to go home to work and earn centimeters. My sister and I both started work at the age of 12. We can do it, can't she?" Gu Jinyan did this on purpose said.

"Ayan, this is different. Your eldest sister earns 23 yuan a month in the sugar factory, and she has already earned back the money she spent on gifts." Gu Dahe felt that it was too difficult for him to take this son seriously. .

"Oh~ Then you have the money to marry me a wife? Speaking of which, the money is my share." Gu Jinyan stared at Gu Dahe with dark eyes.

"This~" Under Gu Jinyan's eyes, Gu Dahe couldn't continue.

Since his son was unwilling to help, he had to give up his job at the Agricultural Bureau. Later, he sent a watch to the director of the sugar factory, and then arranged for Amei to work.

They don't have tickets either, so they can only buy them at a high price, which cost 160. Originally, he wanted to find a job in the agricultural bureau for Amei, but then he went to a sugar factory. Amei was a sensible child and comforted them. Amei was going to work. For the sake of dignity, they bought her two ready-to-wear clothes and a pair of small leather shoes. The family's money was also spent. This is also the reason why when A Rong got married, they couldn't come up with any money.

Although Amei's salary is quite high, the young girl also has a lot of expenses. I can only give my family 5 yuan a month.

Without A Yan and A Rong at home, the money and food allocated to them have been reduced by more than half. A Yan has a whole bunch of strength to go to work, and he takes full centimeters. Since A Rong got married, Huang Xiuju has been busy with household chores and has less centimeters.

After a year, I saved more than 50 yuan by living frugally.

Now that my son has a good job, he has to buy a big one when he gets a wife. In addition to the gift money for the woman and other miscellaneous items, it will be at least 200 yuan.

Originally, what they thought was that Ayan made money to marry a wife. A Mei is also 20 years old. If she doesn't marry this year, she will be an old girl.

They work harder and save more money for Amei's marriage. Ah Mei's dowry can't be too shabby, or others won't be able to poke the spine?

Ah Yan has no money now? what should I do now?

Gu Zhimei soon discovered that her uncles and aunts saved even more, and the sweet potato porridge cooked became thinner and thinner. I didn't eat a single egg at home and exchanged it for money, and the rice I got was exchanged for brown rice. If it weren't for the things that Gu Jinyan sent, she would not be able to live.

She knew that in order to find a job for her, the family's money was spent. It is said that they are flustered without money, and their uncles and aunts live very finely in order to save some money.

She pays the family 5 yuan a month, and it has been more than a year, so it should be slowed down. How can it be more economical than before?

She was very irritable. Before graduation, she had an egg every morning, and she also ate white rice at school at noon. Uncles and aunts were afraid that she would be hungry, so they would always make some fat cakes and bring pancakes to school for her. She has never been short of food since she was a child. Now, they are all working and getting paid, but they are getting worse.

The aunts in the village always like to tease her, saying that she has a good job and a large dowry, and whoever marries her will be blessed, which annoys her.

There were many people who pursued her and those who came to the house to match her, but she refused, saying that she wanted to stay at home to spend more time with her uncles and aunts.

She did not dare to let her uncles and aunts know about some hidden thoughts. It was she who knew that, given the current situation at home and her dowry was not much, she was unwilling to get married.

Of course, the most important thing is that she didn't like those people.

Thinking of the dowry in the future, she does not dare to spend the 18 yuan in her hand every month.
