1959: Carrying the achievement system, she rolled

When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Department, they were the first couple to apply for a marriage certificate.

There are three staff members in the Civil Affairs Section, two of whom handle marriage procedures and one handles divorce procedures.

Yu Lang enthusiastically gave a handful of candy to each staff member. When he walked to a person, his hand was still in the bag. Looking at the person in front of him, he was stunned for a moment, then calmly withdrew his hand.

This person was Comrade Ma Nan, who was dismissed from all his positions. He was demoted from a level 4 clerk to level 11, and his salary was reduced from 56 yuan to 25.5 yuan. He was responsible for handling divorce procedures.

There are not many divorces in this day and age. From the third day of the Lunar New Year when he started working until now, he has been spending his days reading newspapers and drinking tea, and he has never even taken out a pen.

The other two staff members did not care about this different treatment. After all, Ma Nan was responsible for handling the divorce procedures.

It is normal that many newcomers subconsciously reject that side.

The two staff members secretly warned themselves in their hearts that they must not make any mistakes, otherwise Manan's position might be theirs.

It is indeed comfortable to read newspapers and drink tea every day, but people are meant to strive. If the salary has always been 25.5 yuan, it is scary to think about it.

Manan looked at the hot water in front of him, took out the newspaper and prepared for the day. When he turned around, he saw two people walking in.

He took one look and turned his head away. The two men were too young and didn't look like they were here to handle divorce procedures.

He suddenly turned his head again, and when he saw Du Yimeng's face clearly, he was obviously stunned.

Then he quickly turned his head and tilted his face to one side, trying not to let Du Yimeng see him.

Du Yimeng saw that Yu Lang did not give wedding candy to another staff member, and she looked over curiously.

She only saw half of the back of the head and half of the side face, but she didn't care and thought Yu Lang was being superstitious.

With the help of two handfuls of wedding candy, their marriage certificate was quickly written, and now all marriage certificates are handwritten.

The marriage certificate is a piece of thin paper about the size of a palm, which records the basic information of the married couple, such as name, place of origin, signature, age, and the signature of the witness.

There are no fancy patterns on it, but this piece of paper can prove that two people are husband and wife and is protected by law.

"Thank you, comrades!" Yu Lang took the two pieces of paper and carefully put them into his bag, with an unconcealable smile on his face.

From now on, they are husband and wife. He finally married the person he loves. He is very lucky, and even luckier that he met her.

Du Yimeng couldn't help laughing when she saw him like this.

Just as she turned to leave, she met a pair of complicated gazes. Just before those eyes looked away, she spoke.

"Comrade Ma Nan, long time no see!" Du Yimeng greeted Ma Nan with a smile. Why was this person hiding from her?

Then her eyes fell on the sign on his desk, which read "Divorce Processing" in large letters.

Besides the sign, there was also an enamel pot and a newspaper. This job should be very comfortable, as there wouldn't be many business transactions throughout the year.

Fortunately, I don’t make a living by performance, otherwise I would have starved to death.

In this era, few people get divorced, just like the big fight between the Chen and Liu families on New Year's Eve.

As a result, the Chen family split up, and Chen Bing and Liu Chengling continued to live together.

Manan: He shouldn't have turned his head...

"Hello, Comrade Du!" Ma Nan replied with a smile, but the smile on his face was a little stiff.

He could not care less about other people's ridicule, but for some reason, he felt guilty in front of her.

But he soon felt relieved. He is doing well now. His rank was demoted and his salary was also reduced.

Others were laughing at him, but he didn't care.

His current salary can only barely support three people. Since he has no ability, he doesn't have to think about anything else.

In the past, he had 56 yuan a month, which was enough for food and drink for his family of three even if he spent money lavishly.

Unfortunately, Xu Meimei is a greedy person, and the Xu family often asks for money from her.

In the past, every time he opened his eyes, he would worry about whether he had enough money to spend and where to get food for Xu Meimei.

That period was like a nightmare. He had never worried about these things before.

If he didn't do as he was told, Xu Meimei would make a big fuss. Complaining that he was incompetent and a loser was already a mild complaint.

Moreover, Xu Meimei's appetite was growing bigger and bigger. She actually asked him to get her brother into the finance department of the county government. Is that a job that an ordinary person can get into?

Don't think he doesn't know what the Xu family is planning, so he just pulls himself out of the game.

How can a powerless man like him help the Xu family?

He still knew how to choose between being an incompetent clerk and eating peanuts.

The well-behaved and gentle Xu Meimei before marriage disappeared at some point.

So what if I regret it?

There is no turning back in this world...

Besides, this is his retribution. He turned against his parents and insisted on marrying Xu Meimei. He was extremely wrong from that moment on.

However, now he doesn't have to think about anything, and it's nice to drink tea and read the newspaper every day.

"I wish you a happy marriage!" Ma Nan glanced at Yu Lang, then said sincerely to Du Yimeng.

"Thank you Comrade Ma for your blessing!" Yu Lang grabbed a few pieces of candy and placed them in front of Ma Nan. No matter who it was, as long as someone blessed them today, he would definitely not be stingy with a few pieces of candy.

After Yu Lang and Du Yimeng left, Ma Nan looked at the candy in front of him for a long time, then peeled a piece and put it in his mouth. This candy was really bitter!

……

Yu Lang and Du Yimeng held a wedding that was typical of this era. There was no grand banquet, just an oath in front of the portrait of the great man in front of everyone's witnesses, and that was considered the ceremony complete.

Although there were only melon seeds and wedding candies on the table, the atmosphere was very lively.

If they want to hold a grand ceremony, both the Yu family and the Du family have enough money to do so.

But if the wind blows in the future, this will become a handle to attack them.

So from the very beginning, Du Yimeng refused to hold a grand ceremony. When you don’t know how to make a decision, just follow the crowd.

Yu Hongru had discussed this issue with Du Weihai before, and in order to avoid trouble, both parties reached a consensus.

However, there are still many things to prepare for the wedding, whether it is the betrothal gift or the subsequent dowry, all of which are done privately.

The wedding started at noon and ended around 2:00 p.m. The reason for choosing this time period is that today is Monday, which is during working hours.

It was only three o'clock when the guests left and they finished cleaning up. Du Yimeng looked at Yu Lang who was busy running around. Could they be considered married like this?

At that time, she witnessed the wedding of Qin Chulong and Wen Yan. The wedding was simple, but she felt that it was a romance unique to this era.

But why didn't she feel anything when it was her turn?
