Chapter 16

lice, she would claim it was just a fight among women pulling each other's hair, and the police wouldn't even bother to investigate.She's determined to give Tang Zhenzhen a good scolding today!Last ti...After such a big movement in the past two years, Sister Chang who is responsible for organizing things is really a little afraid of young people like Ning Yuan who are full of blood and empty slogans.

She could only chuckle dryly: "Yeah, yeah... Yeah."

Can she still say that such advanced ideas are wrong

In the end, the older woman still took out two marriage certificates, wrote down Ning Yuan and Rong Zhao Nan's names on them, stamped them, and quickly sent them off.

Ning Yuan looked at the marriage certificate printed with the leader's quotations, suppressing her racing heart, and walked out of the office with Huazi.

Out the door, she finally let out a breath of relief, tucked her hands on her hips and with a giggle, pressed her chest and laughed aloud: "Hey, I did it!"

Hua Zi also let out a breath: "Qing, you're amazing, you almost scared me to death just now."

He doesn't know how to respond.

Ningyuan looked at Huazi's simple and honest appearance, and smiled: "Huazi ge, you've worked hard. You go fetch the fertilizer first, and I'll go to the department store in the county."

The Marriage Registration Office is not far from the County Mall, just a ten-minute

Huazi nodded. "Okay, then I'll wait for you at the entrance of the department store."

Hua Zi drove the tractor "vroom vroom" away.

Ning Yuan went all the way to the county city's department store. On the street, people were either wearing green military uniforms, blue worker clothes, or white shirts.

Plain and unassuming.

The most impressive building in the county town is a three-story department store, which opened after renovation last month. It was formerly known as the department store branch.

When it first opened, there was a very long queue. Even today, on a weekday, there are still many people here.

She looked at the bustling entrance of the department store, felt the five dollars in her pocket, and walked in.

Since she was reborn into her younger years, she had to familiarize herself with the environment again and figure out how to make money in the future.

The first floor of the department store has counters on both sides, displaying various daily necessities. The cash register is at the highest point.

She just stepped in and stood at the counter, taking a look— "Whoosh!" A small board with money on it flew past her head along the wire.

Ning Yuan jumped in fright, looked up, and at the various wires above. She then remembered—

>Then, you don't need to go to the cashier to pay when buying things.

Above the cash register there are several long iron wires connected to the sales counter. Anyone who has chosen their goods pays and receives a receipt from the salesperson.

The cashier will put the money tickets and the completed receipt onto a small tray, then push the tray hard. The tray will slide along the wire rail toward the cash register.

The cashier receives the payment, counts it out, assembles the change, bills, and stamped receipts into a neat bundle, and slides it back to the clerk's counter.

She looked at the thin ropes, then at the lively salesclerks and cashiers in the department store, and couldn't help but smile.

Oh, how I miss it....

"What are you buying Don't block the people behind you!" An employee with two butterfly clips in her hair looked at Ning Yuan standing there smiling foolishly and rolled her eyes.

Ning Yuan wasn't angry at her attitude, instead she was in a good mood and even smiled at the salesperson.

During times of scarcity, department store employees were highly sought after, even more so than many government officials. Salespeople had numerous connections that allowed them to obtain items unavailable with tickets, leading to poor service attitudes.

Seeing such salespeople again, Ning Yuan was even more certain that her life had truly started anew!

She wandered around the department store, the county town's department store still looked like she remembered it. There seemed to be a lot of things, but nothing fancy.

After it was soon opened up, the South began to prosper first. In the late 1980s, it would gradually start to do away with ration coupons for cloth, grain, mail, meat, and industrial products...

But now it's still a planned economy era, where tickets are harder to get than money.

Fortunately, she still had some of her own savings in various forms like meat vouchers and cloth vouchers. She wasn't foolish enough to donate all of those to Tang Zhenzhen.

An hour later, Ning Yuan came out with a bottle of Songhe grain liquor, a shoebox, and a thermos.

From a distance, she saw Hua Zi driving the tractor with fertilizer. She hurried over with her things and smiled: "Hua Zi gege, let's go back!"

Hua Zi smiled and said, "Okay, let's go!"

The tractor chugged and rattled its way out of town, heading towards the village.

By the time the two men returned to the village in the pesticide truck, it was already afternoon.

Upon reaching the village entrance, Ning Yuan, seeing that no one was around, suddenly handed the wine to Hua Zi: "Hua Zi ge, this is for you and Lao Zhizhu."

"Hua Zi immediately and incredulously refused: "This isn't your wedding wine, is it This won't do!"

A bottle of Songhe Grain Liquor costs 2 yuan and 5 cents, it's not like those exceptionally cheap few-cents bottles from the Cooperative Supply and Marketing Society.

Ning Yuan smiled and curved her eyes: "That's right, I got married. Please drink to those who have helped me. It doesn't violate the discipline, I'm leaving!"

Saying that, she shoved the bottle into Huazi's arms, grabbed the rest of her things and jumped off the tractor and ran away.

Although she used some flattery to persuade the old chairman to help her.

Lao ZhiShu is a good person, otherwise he wouldn't sympathize with himself and let Hua Zi Ge help him get his marriage certificate in the city.

"Wait a minute... oh dear..." Hua Zi was still operating the tractor, so he had to quickly stuff the wine into the truck bed and make sure no one saw him. He didn't want people gossiping.

First, I drove the tractor back to the office of the production team.

"Father, look at this...!" Hua Zi told the elder about what had happened.

He is afraid that accepting gifts would violate discipline.

The old scribe puffed on his cigarette, eyeing the bottle of Songhe Liquor with a nod.

That girl even gave out candies yesterday, the little kids were delighted. She's a grateful person, keep them, it's not against discipline, just some wedding wine!

Huazi was very happy: "Alright, tonight let's have Manhua stir-fry some peanuts and dried fish."

Nowadays, the common bar snacks are peanuts and fried dried fish because they're affordable.

The old secretary thought for a moment: "That's right, tell Manhua, these days, even if you give Ning Zhiqing a wedding leave, no work points will be deducted."

Mànhuā is the team's points recorder and also Huázǐ's daughter-in-law. She's a third-generation educated youth who married the village secretary's family.

Hua Zi nodded. "Okay."

Ning Yuan carried a shoebox and a thermos of hot water, walking all the way back to the barn.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, under the brilliant autumn sunshine, Rong Zhaonan watched a lone figure running towards him from afar.

The girl's two braids swayed back and forth, making her look like a brilliant daisy in a field.

Rong ZhaoNan looked for a while, lowered his eyes, and continued repairing the roof.

Is Little Agent so happy because she finished her mission in the county town

Ning Yuan returned to the small house by the cattle shed, put down her things, and took a large mouthful of water from her enamel cup before she felt quenched.

"Strange, I didn't see Rong Zhaonan in the cow shed just now. Where did he go" Ning Yu looked around, a little puzzled.

Suddenly, a cold male voice came from the top of the house: "Do you have something to do with me"

Ning Yuan jumped in fright and looked up, only to find a person crouched on the beam.

"What are you doing up there You scared the daylights out of me!" she exclaimed, jumping back in fright.

Rong Zhaonan single-handedly propped himself up, executing a neat and elegant backflip that landed him gracefully beside Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan couldn't help but widen her eyes and clap. "Amazing! Have you done gymnastics before"

Wong Zhao-nan: "This is not gymnastics."

Ning Yuan was excitedly saying, "Wow, did you used to learn acrobatics Then can you walk on stilts and stand on a bowl"

It's hard to imagine such amazing figures of the future, who had to learn acrobatics as kids.

Rong Zhaonan's lips twitched, and he gave her a cold glance: "..."

This little spy is truly clueless, or is he just pretending to be
