reborn peasant mother

Chapter 55

Feng Yujiang raised his head and smiled at Wu Shuanggui, agreeing.

"His brother-in-law is here? How are your parents at home?"

"It's all good. Auntie, my dad said, did he tell me and Chuanxiu to get the marriage certificate someday? My dad said he has a way."

Before 1980, the legal age of marriage was twenty for men and eighteen for women. In 1980, the Marriage Law was amended and changed to 22 for males and [-] for females, just in time for Wu Shuanggui and Zhong Chuanxiu to catch up.

In the early years, rural people generally got married early, and many of them did not reach the legal age.What if I am not old enough?It's nothing, rural people don't value that certificate, as long as a new daughter-in-law officially passes the door with drums and gongs, she will be recognized by everyone, and it is more effective than a marriage certificate in the eyes of ordinary people.After two years, when the age is enough, the child should also register for household registration, and it will not be too late to get the marriage certificate.Besides, the household registration management was loose at that time, and the household registration of children was easy to report. Therefore, some rural couples have never received a marriage certificate in their entire lives, and they still have children and grow old together.

When the two families celebrated, Wu Shuanggui had just turned twenty, and Zhong Chuanxiu was seventeen.According to the habit of doing things in the countryside, the two of them were not in a hurry to get a marriage certificate.

Now that Feng Yujiang heard Wu Shuanggui mention this matter, he felt a little hesitant.

"You two, aren't you old enough now?"

Wu Shuanggui said: "My father said that he knew Officer Liu of the Township Civil Affairs Bureau, so we can talk to him about it, and we can write how much older we are."

"Then why bother? Anyway, you don't have children now, and you are not in a hurry to get your marriage certificate to register for household registration. If you ask your father to find someone, you will have to owe favors, and you will spend money to get favors." Feng Yujiang said.

Wu Shuanggui murmured for a long time, and said, "My dad said it doesn't take much, he can do it. He told me to come someday and get the Chuanxiu household registration book to do it."

After hearing this, Feng Yujiang didn't want to stop her anymore. She thought for a while and said, "It's fine. You two should discuss this matter. Let's pay attention to it and pick a good day to get the certificate. Let's talk about our household registration. I don't know where I was told to stuff it, but my aunt will look for it for you tomorrow."

Wu Shuanggui agreed and went to see Zhong Chuanxiu.

Wu Shuanggui stood aside and watched her tie up the lanterns, and said for a long time, "Chuanxiu, my mother told you to go home."

Seeing that Zhong Chuanxiu didn't respond, he said again: "Let's go home, it's the Lantern Festival tomorrow."

Zhong Chuanxiu tied up the lantern, lit half of the candle by the way, dripped a few drops of wax oil, and glued the candle to the base of the lantern.She tried to see if the candle was stable before she blew out the candle, covered the tied lampshade, and handed it to Gangzi.

"Be careful when picking lanterns at night, my sister tied them so easily, so be careful not to burn them."

Paper lanterns, if the candle falls down, the lantern will also burn.The lamp that Gangzi had installed last year was picked out the first night, and he bumped into other children to play, and burned two of them at once, and when he came back, he was so distressed that he cried and made noises.

Zhong Chuanxiu clapped his hands and stood up, cleaned up the scissors and paste, turned back to the pot room and shouted:

"Mom, I'm going back then."

Feng Yujiang hurried out of Guowu and said, "Leave now? His brother-in-law, it's not too late to leave after dinner."

"No, that, auntie, let's go back first."

Feng Yujiang couldn't help but feel bored watching the young couple riding a bicycle away.The rumors in front of her were like a mess in her heart, and she didn't know what to do.

Take a step, look at a step!Feng Yujiang thought about it in her heart.

Who knows, something happened that night.
