n, his gaze fell on the small hand gripping his wrist. The little agent was pulling quite hard."Ning Yuan, how could you fly into a rage and splash dirty water on people!" Tang Zhenzhen helped Huang X...Less than two years have passed since the big movement, and Sister Organizer is really a little afraid of young people like Ning Yuan who are full of blood and boasting.

She could only chuckle dryly: “Right, right…right.”

Can she still say that such advanced thought is wrong

Then the older woman finally took out two marriage certificates, wrote Ning Yuan and Rong Zhaonan's names on them, stamped them, and hurried them away.

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

Once she stepped out, she finally let out a sigh of relief. She stuck her hip out and with a "poof," pressed against her chest and laughed out loud: "Hey, I did it!"

Huozi also let out a long breath: "Ning Zhiqing, you're really amazing, you almost scared me to death just now."

He doesn't even know how to respond.

Ning Yuan looked at Hua Zi's honest appearance and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work, Hua Zi Ge. You go to pull fertilizer first, and I'll go to the department store in the county."

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

Hua Zi nodded. "Okay, then I'll meet 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.

unassuming.

The most imposing building in the county town is a three-story department store. It just opened last month after renovations and was originally called the department store branch.

When it first opened, there was a very long line. Today is a weekday, and there are still many people here.

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

Since she was reborn into her younger self, she had to get familiar 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 household items, and the cashier is at the highest point.

As soon as she stepped inside and stood at the counter, she saw——"Whoosh!" A small board with money on it flew past her head along the wire.

Ning Yuan was startled. She looked up and at all the wires above, then she remembered—

>And, at this point, you don't need to go to the checkout to pay for things.

Above the cash register were several long iron wires connected to the stalls selling things. If someone chose something, they would pay and give a receipt to the salesperson.

The cashier will put the money ticket and the filled-out receipt onto a small tray, then push the tray hard. The tray slides along a wire track towards the cash register.

The cashier counts the money after receiving it, puts together the change, bills, and stamped receipts, and slides them back to the clerk's counter.

She looked at those delicate ropes, then at the lively department store salespeople and cashiers, and couldn't help but smile.

Ah, I miss it so much....

"What are you buying Don't block the people behind you!" A cashier with two pigtails rolled her eyes at Ning Yuan who stood there giggling.

Ning Yuan didn't get angry because of her attitude, instead, she was in a very good mood and even smiled at the sales clerk.

When material resources are scarce, department store employees have a pretty good job, even better than many government officials. Salespeople have many ways to get things that can't be bought with tickets, so their service attitude is poor.

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

She wandered around the department store, up and down. The county department store still looked like she remembered it. There were a lot of things, but nothing fancy.

Soon after the reforms were implemented, the South began to develop faster. In the late 1980s, people gradually started not needing ration coupons for cloth, food, postage, meat, or industrial goods...

However, it is still a planned economy era now, and tickets are harder to come by than money.

The good thing is that she still had some money and coupons saved up, so she didn't foolishly donate them all to Tang Zhenzhen.

An hour later, Ning Yuan came out carrying a bottle of Songhe liquor, a shoe box, and a thermos.

From afar, she saw Huazi driving a tractor loaded with fertilizer. She hurried over with her things and smiled: "Huazi ge, let's go home!"

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

The tractor rumbled and chugged its way out of the city, heading toward the village.

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

When they reached the village entrance, Ning Yuan looked around to make sure no one was watching. She suddenly passed the wine to Hua Zi: "Hua Zi ge, this is for you and Lao Zhishu."

Hua Zi immediately reacted in shock and refused, "This isn't the wine for your wedding, is it This won't do!"

A bottle of Songhe Liquor costs 2 yuan and 5 cents, it's not like those super cheap few cents drinks from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

Ning Yuan smiled and curved her eyes: "That's right, I got married. Please drink to those who helped me, it doesn't violate 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 before running away.

Although she used some flattery to coax the old secretary into helping her.

Lao Zhi Shu is a good person, otherwise he wouldn't sympathize with her and let Hua Zi Ge help her get her marriage certificate in the city.

"...and so on... Oh dear..." Huazi was still driving the tractor, so he quickly shoved the wine into the truck bed. He didn't want anyone to see and gossip.

First, drive the tractor back to the production team's office.

"Dad, look at this...." Hua Zi told the elder Shu about what had happened.

He was afraid that accepting gifts would violate discipline.

The old secretary puffed on his cigarette, eyeing that bottle of Songhe Grain Liquor, and nodded.

That girl even gave out candy yesterday, and the little kids were overjoyed. She's a kind soul who repays kindness. Keep it, it doesn't violate any regulations, it's just wedding wine!

Hua Zi was very happy: "Okay, tonight let's order some stir-fried peanuts and dried fish."

Nowadays, the usual snacks to go with drinks are just peanuts and dried small fish because they're cheap.

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

Manhua is the team's points recorder and also Huazi's daughter-in-law. She was a member of the third batch of educated youth sent to the countryside and married into the village secretary's family.

Hua Zi nodded. "Okay."

Ning Yuan carried the shoebox and thermos of hot water back to the cow shed all the way.

In the late autumn afternoon, under the brilliant sunshine, Rong Zhaonan saw a figure running towards him from afar.

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

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

Is Xiaote's mission in the county town complete, that's why she's so cheerful

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

"Strange, I didn't see Rong Zhaonan in the cowshed 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 say to me"

Ning Yuan was startled and looked up. To her surprise, she saw a person crouching on the beam.

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

Rong Zhaonan effortlessly held out one hand, smoothly executing a stunning backflip and landing gracefully beside Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan couldn't help but widen her eyes and clap, "Wow! You used to do gymnastics"

Rong Zhaonan: "This is not gymnastics."

Ning Yuan was excited: "Wow, did you used to learn acrobatics Can you walk on stilts and stand on a bowl"

It's hard to imagine such amazing people in the future, when they were still learning acrobatics as kids.

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

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

Didn't she do a background check on him before getting close to him's only five yuan left."She didn't lie, she just spoke ambiguously. As for what others think, she can't control it.As soon as the two of them testified, the crowd buzzed with discussion.Especially Tan...
