"It says that one or two thousand dollars is spent on getting married. Many people think that it's wrong.
But I thought about it myself and felt that it's not wrong. It's not even about
the second uncle's eldest son, Liu Guangqi, getting married. It emptied the second uncle's family fortune. Everyone remembers this plot.
Later, the second uncle's son wanted to get married. Everyone despised him for not having a house and money because
all the money was spent by the eldest son's marriage. The eldest son ran away.
How much money did the second uncle's eldest son get married? Second
uncle is a seventh-grade fitter." Their
family's expenses were very small with more than 70 yuan a month. The only improvement was that the second uncle usually ate eggs
for five cents each time. He only ate two eggs at a time. Three yuan a month was enough.
In addition to the family's expenses, 30 yuan a month
was enough. In other words, the second uncle's family had saved at least 500 yuan every month for more than
40
years. How many years had the second uncle worked?
Even if he was not a Grade 7 worker before, he would have to work for Grade 7 in three years, Grade 6 in three years, and Grade 5 in three years.
Ten years of savings was less
than 4,000 yuan, but the marriage of the eldest son was indeed empty
. However, the marriage of the second uncle's son cost at least 3,000 yuan, which was worthy of the saying of emptying the family. In the later generations, marrying a wife
with a car and emptying the family
was actually the same in the 1960s
. If he really married a wife for a few dozen yuan, then the silly pillar's salary of 37.5 yuan would be the monthly groom.
If money was really so scarce, then the silly pillar would be 37.5 yuan. Even if Qin Huiru was a little flirtatious, there would probably be people who would be willing to marry her. Some might even fight to get married. Therefore
, money was not that scarce in the 1960s, and the people in Beijing were not that poor.
Marriage in the 1960s was like getting married in a limousine. Many families would only be willing to marry their daughters if they had everything they needed. The
1960s were bitter, and supplies were scarce.
The reason for this saying was actually because of the ticket system. Having money but not being able to buy things
did not mean that they did not have money.
Many people say that Third Uncle's family is not well-off and they don't even have enough to eat.
But if you watch the drama carefully, don't you realize that Third Uncle's bicycle and radio are things that no other family in the courtyard can compare to
? In that era, because it was 'high-tech,' it was more expensive than a bicycle
. Everyone was sure that it was a ticket, not money.
