Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 17 Writing a Marriage Certificate

Before leaving the yard, Tao Qiuyi took out two handfuls of noodles that she had kept for emergency from the ring space and put them in a cloth bag together with sugar.

She first walked around the village, giving out some fruit candies, and learned from several children playing hopscotch that the team leader was a good man who was fair and just, and would not shield bad people or wrongly accuse good people.

After finding out where the team leader is, he went directly to find him. He did not go to find the squad leader because the squad leader of Team 4 is a cousin of the Huang family. People from the Huang family can be good people.

When I walked into the brigade headquarters, there were two people sitting inside. One was a man who looked to be in his forties and full of sense of justice, and the other was an old man who looked to be in his fifties and had a kind face. What were they whispering to each other?
Looking at the two people, Tao Qiuyi couldn't tell who was the captain she was looking for. The original owner had been imprisoned in the Huang family for seventeen years and had never seen anyone, let alone the captain.

When the incident of the wrong child was exposed, the captain went to the Huang family to seek justice. The original owner was so frightened and scared at that time that she didn't even have time to look at the captain.

Tao Qiuyi reached out and knocked on the open door.

The two people in the room looked towards the door at the same time and saw a thin little girl with pretty features. They thought she was an educated youth who had gone to the countryside.

"Little girl, what can I do for you?" asked the kind-looking old man.

"Hello, uncle. I'm looking for the team leader." Tao Qiuyi replied with a smile.

"Looking for you." The old man looked at the man who was full of justice, picked up his teacup next to him and drank water.

"Comrade, I'm the captain. What do you want to talk to me about?" The captain stood up and looked at Tao Qiuyi. Without waiting for Tao Qiuyi to answer, he waved again, "Don't stand at the door. Come and sit down and talk."

"Hello, Captain." Tao Qiuyi greeted him first, then walked over and sat down on the long bench, explaining her purpose. "My name is Tao Qiuyi, and I'm here to ask you to write a marriage certificate for Wei Jingyuan and me, with the team's seal. I don't want a wedding banquet, as it's too much trouble."

"What did you say?" The old man almost spit out a mouthful of water, and quickly swallowed it. He stared at Tao Qiuyi and asked, "Little girl, what did you say you were here for?"

"I'll ask the team leader to write a marriage certificate for Wei Jingyuan and me, and just stamp it with the team's seal." Tao Qiuyi said again.

He heard it right, he heard it right. The pretty girl really said that she came to find the captain to write a marriage certificate for her and Jing Yuan. The old man looked at the captain.

The captain also looked at the old man and understood the question in his eyes. Did you know that your family member Jingyuan is going to get married, and to such a pretty girl?

The captain shook his head, he didn't know.

This morning before going to work, his mother and his eldest and third sisters-in-law came to see him and told him that the granddaughter of the Huang family, who was the murderer and had been taken away by mistake, had jumped into the river but did not die and was rescued by Jing Yuan and taken home. She had stayed in Jing Yuan's house for two nights and refused to leave. They asked him to find a way to get rid of her so as not to ruin the reputation of the Wei family and Jing Yuan.

The team leader was very troubled by this matter. His mother asked him to get rid of the person, but how could he do it?
The girl was kicked out by the Huang family and was no longer a member of the Huang family. It was impossible for the Huang family to take her back. Old man Tao was the girl's grandfather, but the girl didn't know him. The day before yesterday, Old man Tao went to take the girl back, but the girl said she didn't want to go back with him no matter what.

"Young comrade, which place are you from as an educated youth working in the countryside? You have decided to marry Jingyuan. Do your family agree?" The team leader felt that as Jingyuan's elder, he should first ask the girl's parents for their opinion.

Also, does this young comrade know about Jing Yuan’s current family situation?

Tao Qiuyi said: "I'm not an educated youth. I'm a villager from the fourth team of the first team. My name is Tao Qiuyi, and my previous name was Huang Qiuyi. I have lived in the Huang family for seventeen years. The day before yesterday, I was told that I was not the Huang family's child, but Huang Lingyu was the Huang family's child." "By the way, when there was a commotion in the Huang family the day before yesterday, Huang's mother insisted on exchanging Huang Lingyu and me, and she even specially invited you, the team leader, and the team leader to go and do justice. After you discussed it, you unanimously decided to exchange me and Huang Lingyu." Tao Qiuyi just remembered this.

After hearing her words, the captain and the old man knew who she was, and their expressions suddenly became a little strange.

The day before yesterday, the Huang family had a big fuss about taking the wrong daughter away. The old man didn't go to the Huang family to see it, but he heard about it. He even knew that the little girl had jumped into the river to commit suicide and was rescued by Jing Yuan the day before yesterday.

If he were to say, the Huang family was the one who was dishonest in the whole thing.

The biological daughter of the Huang family is not a good person either. She enjoys life in the city, but returns to the Huang family as soon as she falls into trouble. She is a complete ungrateful person.

This little girl is the most innocent. The Huang family has never been kind to her. As soon as their own daughter came back, they immediately drove her out of the house without caring whether the little girl could withstand the blow. No wonder the little girl was so depressed that she wanted to jump into the river.

Fortunately, she was rescued by Jing Yuan. It would have been such a pity if such a pretty girl had drowned.

But... Jing Yuan saved her, but also ruined her reputation. It seemed that she had no choice but to marry Jing Yuan.

"Old Four, why don't you ask someone to call Jing Yuan to ask her, she...she is..." The old man couldn't bring himself to say the words "granddaughter of a murderer".

After all, this little girl grew up in the village. Although few people have seen her, she did grow up in the Huang family.

She is the daughter that the Huang family mistakenly adopted... The captain's expression at this moment is really hard to describe. The day before yesterday when the Huang family asked him to make the decision, the girl lowered her head and he didn't see her appearance.

In the morning, his mother and eldest and third sisters-in-law talked about Tao Qiuyi, but they didn't mention her name. They just kept saying she was the granddaughter of a murderer, so he mistakenly thought she was an educated youth who went to the countryside.

His mother said that the girl had stayed in Jingyuan's house for two nights and asked him to find a way to get rid of her. He knew very well the personalities of his mother and his eldest and third sisters-in-law. They came to him simply because they had tried but failed to drive the girl away and instead suffered at the hands of her.

Now this girl came to him to write a marriage certificate between her and Jing Yuan.

The captain quickly weighed the pros and cons, agreed with the old man's proposal, and became much kinder towards Tao Qiuyi.

"Two people are needed to get the marriage certificate. Comrade, please wait a moment. I will send someone to call Jing Yuan right away." The captain's tone was a little excited.

After his second brother and his wife passed away, his mother, eldest brother and third brother occupied the house built by Jingyuan and bullied Jingyuan's three siblings. He saw it and tried to persuade his mother, eldest brother and third brother, but unfortunately no one listened.

Jing Yuan lived in the woodshed of the Wei family. The girl must have known this, but she was still willing to marry Jing Yuan. It was rare, really rare.

When Tao Qiuyi heard that Wei Jingyuan was going to be called, she quickly stopped him. "Captain, I know that two people need to come together to get the marriage certificate, but you also know that Wei Jingyuan has difficulty walking, and he's currently treating a patient and can't come. Look, why don't we make special arrangements for special cases? I can get the marriage certificate by myself."
