Xu Shiyan spent four days as a disciple at Yishenchang.
During these four days, Li Chengrong had been following Xu Shiyan, asking questions.
Xu Shiyan didn't find it annoying at all. It was normal for a young boy who had just left school to be a bit bookish.
Wait a few years and you will become a veteran, and you will no longer be able to ask questions like a student.
Four days later, Xu Shiyan transferred to the commune to participate in the competition, and then went to the first team, and the third team gave brief instructions.
The people from the two brigades had been following Xu Shiyan for several days, and they had learned almost the same thing, so Xu Shiyan didn't need to put too much thought into it.
Xu Shiyan wandered around during the day doing technical guidance, and had to go on duty at the breeding farm the next night, which was tiring for him.
At least, after more than twenty days of busy work, the fermentation of fertilizers has come to an end for the time being. Just wait for a while to check the degree of fermentation.
On July 1st, the twins of the Xu family are one month old.
Due to some special reasons, Xu Shiyan did not organize the Full Moon Wine, and he was busy at that time and really couldn't take care of it.
Until mid-July, Xu Shiyan calmed down a bit, and Zhao Jianshe and others also returned from other places.
Xu Shiyan then said that he would invite everyone over for dinner sometime.
Coincidentally, July 18th, the 28th day of the fifth lunar month, is Xu Chenghou’s birthday.
The rules set by the original separation of the family were that after Xu Chenghou turned sixty, the brothers had to come back every year to celebrate the old man's birthday.
Xu Shiyan simply took advantage of the opportunity and called some of his good friends over to have a fun time.
He was celebrating his father's birthday, not a full-moon party. Even if others knew about it, they wouldn't be able to find anything wrong with it.
Xu Shiyan arranged for someone to go up the mountain to replace Xu Chenghou in advance, and then brought the old man back, took a bath, shaved his head, shaved his face, and cleaned up neatly.
Xu Shiqin also made a new set of clothes for his father, making him look energetic.
Xu Shixian, who was in the county, Xu Shixiang, who was in Xinglong Commune, and Xu Shide, who was seconded to Daying Commune as accountant, all took leave.
I rushed back a day early with my wife and children, and brought back the pension and food that should be given to the elderly in the first half of the year.
Regardless of whether it's the old house or Xu Shiyan's place, there are so many houses that even if a whole family comes back, they can still live there.
Although it was under the guise of Xu Chenghou celebrating his birthday, the people invited were all Xu Shiyan's friends, so naturally it had to be handled by Xu Shiyan.
On the 18th, many people came to the Xu family.
Needless to say, Yang Chunming, Feng Chao and others, Zhao Jianshe and his father Zhao Dahai came together.
Zhao Dahai is getting older, and many people have moved out of the Dongjiang River Brigade, so things are getting worse and worse.
Zhao Dahai lost his temper and moved out to live with Zhao Jianshe in the spring of this year. It happened that he hadn't seen Xu Chenghou for a long time, so he came over to join in the fun.
Han Wenzhong, Han Limin and Han Lixin, father and son, came together.
Why? Of course it's because the Xu and Han families are about to get married.
That year Xu Shiyan was killing a pig for a treat. Han Liwei met Xu Shiqin and somehow fell in love with him.
The next day, I went to the tailor shop of Songjianghe Forestry Bureau and found Xu Shiqin, who said he wanted to make a set of clothes to give away.
It was already the 26th of the twelfth lunar month at that time, so the tailor shop would not accept any work.
But Xu Shiqin was too embarrassed to refuse, so he hurriedly made it for Han Liwei.
But when Han Liwei came to pick up the clothes, he said they were for Xu Shiqin, which frightened Xu Shiqin.
Although Xu Shiqin was twenty years old, many people had introduced her to someone, but most of them were rejected by Zhou Guilan before they even came to her.
I only met two or three of them, and at most I could say a few words in front of the introducer, but it didn't work out in the end.
This is the first time that I have been pursued by a young man, and he is so outstanding.
Xu Shiqin felt that he was not worthy of the conditions and did not dare to think about it, so he rejected Han Liwei's gift and ran home.
Years later, Han Liwei returned to the team, but when he was away, he would write letters to Xu Shiqin from time to time.
Don't write anything excessive in the letter, just talk about your ideals and the customs outside.
They will also encourage Xu Shiqin to study more, work hard and so on.
Xu Shiqin didn't reply to the letter at first, but Han Liwei couldn't bear to send it here one by one. As time went by, Xu Shiqin felt that it was not good not to reply.
In this way, the two of them exchanged letters for more than a year.
Later, Han Liwei expressed his feelings again in the letter. Xu Shiqin ran out of ideas for a while and asked his mother for her opinion.
Only then did Xu Shiyan realize that the boy Han Liwei had been thinking about his sister for a long time.
Ordinarily, Xu Shiyan should be happy that such an outstanding young man as Han Liwei likes his own girl.
However, in July 1984 in his previous life, Han Liwei died at the border at the age of 27.
Xu Shiyan met Han Wenzhong in 1987, and three years had passed since Han Liwei's death.
But every time he mentioned his youngest son, Han Wenzhong would shed tears of grief.
That was the most outstanding child of the Han family. He died at a young age without even marrying a wife.
So Xu Shiyan struggled for a long time and analyzed the pros and cons with his mother and Xu Shiqin.
Xu Shiyan could not make the decision for his sister, he could only leave the decision-making power to his sister and let her make her own choice.
Xu Shiqin thought about it again and again, and finally decided to agree to Han Liwei's pursuit.
At the same time, the Han family also received a letter from Han Liwei.
Han Wenzhong also hesitated when he learned that his younger son had taken a liking to Xu Shiyan's sixth sister.
After all, Xu Shiqin's physical condition is there, and it is impossible for the Han family to have no objection at all.
But the son loved her wholeheartedly, and Han Wenzhong and his wife had no choice but to hire a matchmaker to propose marriage to the Xu family.
The two parties have already agreed on the marriage verbally, and they are just waiting for Han Liwei to get engaged when he goes home to visit his relatives this winter.
The Han and Xu families are about to become in-laws. If Xu Chenghou celebrates his birthday, can Han Wenzhong not come?
"Brother Xu, I haven't seen you for a while, but I'm getting more and more energetic."
Han Wenzhong was particularly affectionate when he saw Xu Chenghou. He looked Xu Chenghou up and down and smiled.
"Sure enough, people are in high spirits during happy events. Are you very happy to have a pair of grandchildren?"
Han Wenzhong and Xu Chenghou were at odds with each other, and they were about to get married, so they naturally stayed away and deliberately teased Xu Chenghou.
"Of course I'm happy to have grandchildren. What's even more happy is that our old girl got a good uncle.
Do you think I can't be energetic? I'm still waiting to hold my grandson." Xu Chenghou laughed.
For him, it was a happy event for his third son to have twins, a boy and a girl, but that was all.
After all, there are a lot of grandchildren, so there is nothing new.
But Xu Shiqin's marriage has always been a worry for the couple.
Now Xu Shiqin has found such a good partner, and Xu Chenghou has also recovered from heart disease. This is the most gratifying thing.
When Han Wenzhong heard this, he laughed, "Yes, yes, this is a big deal.
I heard a letter from the third child, saying that a report has been sent to the higher authorities, and once the application is approved, he will come back this winter to hold a wedding."
Han Liwei is twenty-five this year and has been in the army for seven years. He is in compliance with the regulations and is just waiting for approval from his superiors.
Xu Shiqin is twenty-three this year, which is also the best time.
The two families discussed that they might as well take the opportunity to get engaged and married together.
After a while after the marriage, if conditions permit, let Xu Shiqin move to Han Liwei. The couple cannot always live in separate places.
