Chapter 1397 Breaking off the Engagement 46
"Then let's get married, wife. I have three days off this time. Can we go get the marriage certificate tomorrow?"
Huo Min put down the things in his hands, hugged his wife, and pestered her, "The day after tomorrow, the weekend, let's call my brother-in-law back, set up two more tables, and call a few village cadres to liven things up."
After that, he said apologetically, "Wife, I'm sorry, we can't have a big wedding banquet, we can only set up two simple tables, I'm sorry you've been wronged."
"Don't feel wronged, everyone is the same."
In the afternoon, Huo Min excitedly went to find the team leader and got a marriage certificate for Yuanchun.
The next day, Yuanchun was abducted by him to the county town. The two first went to the transport team, found his leader, and asked him to make a marriage certificate. Then they went to the police station to get the marriage certificate.
At noon, the two went to the food factory and picked up Shen Yuandong to go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner.
Seeing the marriage certificate that looked like a certificate of honor, Shen Yuandong's eyes were red, and he said to Huo Min reluctantly, "Brother-in-law, I'll ask you to take care of my sister in the future. If...if you are angry, don't hit my sister. My sister is a woman and can't stand being hit. If you want to hit someone, come and hit me. I'm a boy and can stand being hit."
Oh my god, what kind of silly boy is this?
When his sister was beaten, he didn't fight with his brother-in-law, but instead climbed up the pole and acted as a sandbag to take the beating for his sister.
Yuanchun was amused by him and scolded her for being useless, but went to the service desk and ordered another serving of sweet and sour pork. This kid has loved sweets since he was a child, and he especially likes sweet and sour pork.
Huo Min doesn't like sweets. Today is the day they get their marriage certificate, so she didn't order sweet and sour pork. She only ordered chicken stewed with mushrooms, big bones stewed with sauerkraut and blood sausage, and cold-mixed dried tofu shreds.
Yuanchun also secretly asked 007, Huo Min is from Shanghai, how could he not like sweets? People in Shanghai all like sweets.
007 told him that Huo Min had loved sweets since he was a child, especially sweet shrimps.
Huo Min's father is very good at making sweet shrimps, and Huo Min never gets tired of eating them.
On the day when the Huo family was wiped out, he and his father took half a bag of sugar, ran to the sea to catch seafood, had a picnic, and made sweet shrimps to eat.
Before the sweet shrimps were digested in his stomach, he saw the bodies of his relatives all over the ground.
There was blood everywhere.
That day, he swore that he would never eat sweets again.
After Yuanchun knew about this, she would not make desserts whenever Huo Min was at the dinner table. But today was an exception. Since her good brother wanted to take a beating for her, she rewarded him with his favorite sweet and sour pork.
You have to protect your husband and pamper your obedient younger brother.
After dinner, Huo Min took Yuanchun to his territory.
In the black market warehouse, Yuanchun saw a warehouse full of supplies. Huo Min told her: "These supplies are what I brought back this time."
This time when he went out, he did not bring back much goods for the supply and marketing cooperative. He used the empty space in the carriage to pack some private goods.
Even though the warehouse is full of supplies, the demand in the county is actually very high and these supplies are only enough to sell on the black market for about ten days.
Huo Min led her around and around to a corner. He pointed at the tall bedding in front of him and said, "Wife, this time when I passed through the imperial capital, I got ten sets of new blankets in ten different patterns. You can choose two and prepare one for my brother-in-law."
"There are more than twenty sets of new bedding here. You can pick out as many as we want, and choose two sets for my brother-in-law. After our wedding is done, we will ask the matchmaker to go next door to propose marriage."
After Shen Yuandong and Taohua started dating, he would return to the village every weekend and secretly date Taohua. He hid this from Zhang Erniu's family, but not from the eagle-eyed Huo Min.
