Chapter 585
"Don't you want to be with me?"
Dou Yuanchao looked injured, coupled with his 185-year-old height, thick eyebrows and big eyes, looked a little pitiful.
Annie waved her hand impatiently, "No, no. We are going to get married, of course I want to be with you. But the question is, where is my job? I am not a rural woman without a job, I am a serious state-owned enterprise division-level cadre."
At first, Annie was just using work as an excuse, but the more she said that she felt reasonable, she raised her voice and said with confidence, "The unit leader valued me so much, and even chose me to go on a business trip to Neon. This time she recommended me to be the factory's March 8th Red Flag Bearer, a model worker, how can I--"
Dou Yuanchao's eyes flashed.
In fact, he also knew that Anne refused to follow the army, and was mainly unwilling to give up the prosperous life in the capital and went to a remote mountainous area to live a hard life.
But she wasn't just messing around. Her job was really good. If she gave up because of the army, it would be unreasonable.
"Honghong, what you said makes sense. There is indeed a bit of a dilemma in work."
Dou Yuanchao made up his mind to stare at "An Nihong", so he naturally wanted to put her under his nose.
Furthermore, going to the army also has the benefits of going to the army. At least there, the wife faces much less temptations.
Even if there is a turmoil, it cannot escape the sentries or military wives in the military compound.
"Yes, I just can't bear to work."
When Annie saw Dou Yuanchao relaxing her tone, she quickly softened her voice, "Asian Korea, don't think too much, it's not that I don't want to go to the army with you. But your military camp is in the mountains, and the transportation to the city is very inconvenient, and there are no companies around. Even if I transfer my work to the provincial capital, I can't go back to the military camp every day."
Dou Yuanchao responded in a silence and stopped saying anything.
The two of them went to the photo studio in silence.
After taking a wedding photo that is very distinctive in this era, Dou Yuanchao and Annie went to the department store and overseas Chinese shop again.
Dou Yuanchao's salary was given to "An Nihong", and all the allowances and subsidies were donated to his comrades in need, and his pockets were cleaner than his face.
However, Dou's mother knew that her son had no money, so she stuffed him a lot in advance.
Now getting married, what are the new four popular items (i.e. TV, refrigerator, washing machine and recorder), forty-eight legs, and three gold jewelry have not yet been revealed.
But when Dou's mother got married, her mother-in-law gave her a set of gold jewelry. Now that she is marching her daughter-in-law, she likes Anne again, so she doesn't want to feel wronged.
According to Dou’s mother’s instructions, Dou Yuanchao bought Annie a gold ring and a pair of gold earrings, and then bought her a Longines watch.
In order to show that she is an independent new woman and did not blindly accept the man's things, Annie bought a watch for Dou Yuanchao and a hero pen.
Of course, when paying the bill, Annie did not forget to show a painful expression and always maintained her character as "An Nihong"!
The two of them went to make new clothes again. Uh, it was mainly Anne who was doing it.
It was already May and early summer was coming, and the wedding was scheduled for a week.
It was perfectly possible to wear skirts at that time.
Anne bought the fabric and asked the tailor to make a fashionable braggie and a modified cheongsam.
Annie also wanted to customize a suit for Dou Yuanchao, but Dou Yuanchao refused: "I have clothes, so I don't need to do it."
He wears military uniforms every day and spends very little time wearing casual clothes. Even if he wears them, he prefers casual clothes rather than stereotypical suits.
Well, since they don’t want to, we won’t force it.
Anne is a kind person. Anyway, her current character is not a good wife, but a kind of selfish girl who is a bit selfish, rich-worshipful and greedy.
The two of them walked around outside for a long time and then came back with a bunch of things.
As for the big TV items, Dou's mother had already asked her friend to buy them in advance, but she didn't even remove the packaging, and was placed in Dou Yuanchao's room.
The An family has also stated that they will dodge their daughter to have four beds and a sewing machine.
This was also a very generous dowry in the early 1980s.
Now, you still need tickets for anything you buy, sewing machines, etc. You need industrial coupons. Ordinary employees have saved up for many years to save enough tickets for sewing machines.
An’s father and mother started saving tickets and money since An Nihong went to middle school. For example, the four red and green silk quilts were bought by An’s mother a few years ago.
Fortunately, the couple both have salaries, and their son has a little difficulty, so they will also make up for it on weekdays.
Otherwise, An Nihong would be studying, buying new clothes and shoes, and An’s father and mother would not be able to make up enough money to buy a sewing machine.
In addition, Grandpa An also supported some.
He is a disabled veteran and has government pensions and allowances. Apart from drinking two taels of wine on a daily basis, the old man has almost no hobby of spending money.
He keeps some subsidies for his grandson, great-grandson, and the rest for his granddaughter.
Of course, An Nihong worked for several months, and she had a salary of more than 80 yuan a month. She was still holding Dou Yuanchao’s salary of nearly 200 yuan, and she could squeeze out 10 or 20 yuan a month to send it to her family.
All of this money, plus the 100 yuan bonus that Annie sent home before, saved for her.
It's a total of 200 yuan.
The two hundred yuan was all the private house given by Grandpa An, and An’s mother put together the integer of five hundred yuan, and prepared to serve Annie as the bottom of the box.
The An family and Dou family are not mean and unreasonable. The two families have discussions and everything is settled quickly.
The next day, Dou Yuanchao and Annie went to get their marriage certificate.
Then we started preparing for the wedding.
The supply is tight these days, and the meat, vegetables, wine, cigarettes and sugar at wedding banquets all need tickets.
These are enough for Dou Yuanchao to work hard.
Fortunately, he has many relatives in his family, comrades from all walks of life, and has money, so it is not too difficult to get these things.
But time is a little tight, Dou Yuanchao is so busy that he is not touching the ground.
Taking a break from his busy schedule, Dou Yuanchao found some time to mention the matter of "following the army" with his grandfather and his parents.
"Honghong really wants to go to the army with me, but she is a little reluctant to work."
When Dou Yuanchao said this, he did not carry Annie on his back. Because he was not afraid of being heard by Annie.
Annie sat on the sand with a little stiff smile on her face. What a Dou Yuanchao, I heard what he said. On the surface, it was just saying good things for her, but in fact it was digging a hole for her.
He said so. Can Annie still refute him in front of the elders of the Dou family, "I don't want to follow the army."
