At noon on December 10th, Xu Shiyan made a reservation at the Changbaishan Hotel near the hospital.
Mr. Chu, Qi Yunsheng and his wife, Chi Hao and others were invited to attend the engagement banquet of Xu Shiqin and Han Liwei.
At the banquet, the Han family brought out the engagement ceremony that they had prepared long ago.
A plum blossom watch, a jade bracelet, a pair of gold earrings, and three hundred yuan.
The bracelet and earrings look like old items at first glance.
The ancestors of the Han family opened a escort agency, something they saved in their early years.
They were buried during all those years of turmoil, but now no one cares about them, so they dug them out again and picked out two good things to leave to my young daughter-in-law.
"The remaining two turns and one ring, thirty-six legs, will be prepared when you get married."
Han Wenzhong was afraid that Xu's family would misunderstand him and think that they only gave him this, without at least a few explanations.
"Anyway, it's up to you to choose. If you want something, you can pay. If you don't want something, I'll give you money and you can buy it yourself."
Han Liwei is still in Shenyang now. He is not sure where he will be in the future. It is useless to buy furniture and other things in advance. It cannot be transported so far away.
So Han Wenzhong didn't make any preparations and waited until the wedding was held.
"Oh, my dear, that's a lot.
They young people all have a salary, and they can just buy the rest by themselves. How can they have to have their parents provide everything?"
If you get engaged these days and don't have any money as a bride price, the Han family will give you three hundred yuan, which is quite a lot.
Xu Chenghou was extremely satisfied. How could he ask the Han family to pay for another thirty-six legs?
How much does it cost to marry a wife?
They are all living a normal life, and no one wants to take advantage of the opportunity to get into the mountains and silver mountains, so they don't dare to be so arrogant.
The Han family has so many things, what will the Xu family do as a dowry then?
"We do new things and don't pay attention to so many rules.
As long as the two of them get along well and are harmonious and beautiful, those thirty-six legs that spin and ring are all foreign objects."
I have received all the certificates, so long as they are close to each other, the Xu family will not choose. As long as Han Liwei treats Xu Shiqin well, he will accept any conditions.
"Okay, then let them make their own arrangements, and we old people won't get involved."
The Xu family was reasonable, and Han Wenzhong was very happy, so he waved his hand and asked Xu Shiqin to put away the money and things.
Over there, Xu Shiyan and Han Limin helped bring out the dishes, and when the food and wine were ready, Han Liwei and Xu Shiqin toasted to their fathers.
Both Han Wenzhong and Xu Chenghou prepared red envelopes to give money for correcting their statements.
Of course, the money for changing one's mouth in these years is not much, just a few yuan, but it is just for good luck.
After changing my words, the engagement process is almost over. Next, it’s time to eat and drink.
Xu Chenghou had no choice but to offer Mr. Chu a few glasses of wine and apologize for the past.
How could Mr. Chu care about those things? He just smiled and waved his hands. No one would mention the past things again, and just let it go with a smile.
Mr. Chu, Chi Hao, and Qi Yunsheng were not allowed to drink, but it did not affect the atmosphere of the engagement banquet.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, which was particularly lively. At the banquet, Xu Shiyan deliberately led the conversation to the monkey forest in the south.
Nowadays, the people of the country are most concerned about the safety of the Monkey Forest in Southwest China, and Han Liwei has to do drills in the army.
It can be said that this topic is of great concern to men, and once it is brought up, they cannot stop talking about it.
Xu Shiyan deliberately pretended to be a little drunk.
"Liwei, I heard that those monkeys are very good at special operations, especially ambushes in the mountains and forests, and their endurance is very high. Is this true?"
"Yes, I have also heard people mention that they can ambush in damp and dark forest swamps, crawling with snakes and poisonous insects, and have extremely strong endurance."
Of course Han Liwei knew more than Xu Shiyan, "They often lie in wait like this and attack us by surprise."
"Then tell me, is this possible?
Even if the two sides are going to fight, let's use some equipment to observe the other side in advance, and also use some diced radish, spend a lot of money, etc. to wash the floor in advance.
But monkeys can endure it and remain silent no matter how many people are injured, so why did we misjudge this?"
In the previous life, Han Liwei and his comrades were negligent due to misjudgment. Everyone thought that there would be no war and went to sleep.
As a result, monkeys attacked, and Han Liwei and his comrades died in that battle, which also made Han Wenzhong sad for the rest of his life.
At the moment, Han Liwei has not been transferred to Southwest China, and Xu Shiyan does not know whether Han Liwei will be transferred there in this life.
Xu Shiyan has made plans in the past two days. If he can, he will remind him and get vaccinated in advance so that Han Liwei will be aware of this.
If it didn't work out, in the spring of 1984, I asked Xu Shiqin to write a letter to call Han Liwei back to hold the wedding.
Although doing so may cause Han Liwei to miss the most important moment in his military career, and he may regret it, it is better than losing his life.
Of course, Xu Shiyan hopes that through Han Liwei, he can also give his comrades a warning. Perhaps in this way, more family tragedies can be avoided.
Xu Shiyan was soft-spoken and could do very little. He could only try his best and hope it would be useful.
When Han Liwei heard this, his expression suddenly became serious.
After being in the army for many years, he naturally knows more than Xu Shiyan.
If the war takes place at night, and if our electronic equipment fails to detect the opponent's anomalies, there is a real possibility of misjudgment.
“Third brother, I’ve never been to the Monkey Forest, I’ve only heard people talk about it.
But the situation you mentioned may really happen. I will try to write a report later."
They also have some virtual training courses in the army. The situation Xu Shiyan mentioned is a good simulation condition and you can really try it.
When Xu Shiyan heard this, he knew that Han Liwei had taken his words seriously, and he immediately became happy.
As long as someone pays attention to it, maybe when they encounter this situation in the future, they will be alert and not repeat the tragic scenes of the previous life.
"I don't understand anything. It's just nonsense. You can figure this out yourself." Xu Shiyan waved his hands and pretended to be stupid.
"Shiyan, if you don't understand anything, everyone else will be a fool.
Is there something you don’t know yet? The boy from the Li family compiled all the questions he asked you for advice, wrote a document and sent it to Secretary Lin, the leader of the meeting.
Secretary Lin read the material and became interested in the contents, so he called Li Xiaozi to inquire.
Finally, Li Xiaozi said, I learned all this from you.
Secretary Lin also wanted to discuss it with you in detail, but when he inquired about it, he found out that you had come to the provincial capital."
On the other side, Han Wenzhong remembered something and quickly told Xu Shiyan.
Xu Shiyan was stunned for a moment. What did he tell Li Chengrong? Oh, it seems to be about comprehensive utilization of ginseng fields and deep processing of ginseng products, right?
At first, Li Chengrong asked because he had no choice but to ask, why are we still looking for him now? Why are we looking for him?
"Looking for me? I'm from the commune, and they are a state-owned enterprise. There are two units. What's the use of looking for me? I'm not a worker at the factory.
I have told Li Chengrong everything I can say, but I only have this little thing in my stomach, and you can’t tell me anything useful anymore.”
