"My skin is in such good condition after waking up so early. Love is indeed the best skin care product." Lin Wanwan praised with a smile.
A few people were talking when the sound of firecrackers suddenly came from downstairs. Gu Jingyu's two cousins ran to the window together, stuck their heads out to take a look, and said excitedly: "Here, here, the groom is here.
"
Sure enough, after a while, there was movement from the stairs.
The groom was stopped by Gu Jingyu's cousins at the stairs to knock out red envelopes. This is also a custom in this rural area.
Liang Xingchi was arguing with someone, and when he asked for 8888, he cut off an 8 and gave it to 888. Naturally, he refused. After a few rounds of back and forth, he settled on 1888.
After finally reaching an agreement, the best man who was following Liang Xingchi took out a red envelope and handed it over: "1888 happens to be stored here."
After taking the money, the person blocking the way got out of the way. Gu Jingyu's cousins quickly pulled Lin Wanwan to stand at the door and blocked the door for the second interception.
Lin Wanwan was really not interested in this kind of fact. She took out the hand held by Gu Jingyu's cousin and stood aside to watch the fun.
It's another round of back and forth, this time it's not just red envelopes, but also various performances.
Liang Xingchi was obviously well prepared, and he quickly took the guitar from the best man who was following him and started playing and singing:
"Listen to me, hold hands and walk with me
Create a happy life
It was too late yesterday and it will be a pity tomorrow
The videographer and photographer all entered the room to follow.
I have to say that Liang Xingchi's appearance is quite good. He is about 180cm tall. He seems to have put on a little makeup for his wedding today. He looks handsome and charming. No wonder he can make Gu Jingyu smile like a flower.
After finally getting through the last door with red envelopes and singing, we then started proposing, kissing and posing for photos under the guidance of the cameraman.
The new house was crowded with people watching the excitement. Lin Wanwan stood aside and looked at Gu Jingyu's blushing face, silently blessing her in her heart and hoping that her choice was right.
Just looking at their appearance, Gu Jingyu and Liang Xingchi are a perfect match. At this time, one is wearing a gray suit and the other is wearing a white wedding dress, both of them stand out like stars.
"Have you finished filming here? The ancestral hall is ready. Let's go to the ancestral hall to worship our ancestors." Gu Jingyu's uncle squeezed into the crowd and shouted.
A large group of people then walked towards the ancestral hall on the east side of the village.
This ancestral hall is an old-fashioned building that is incompatible with other small rural western-style buildings in the village.
It was supposed to be demolished during the reconstruction of the new countryside more than ten years ago, but the people of the Gu family firmly opposed it. After a long period of back and forth, in the end the village officials and the town leaders had no choice but to compromise. Now it has become a characteristic ancient village.
architecture.
After the tedious worship ceremony, a group of people gathered around the bride and groom back home to start the next ceremony. The bride's grandmother held the bride, and her mother fed the bride symbolically. Lin Wanwan didn't understand the meaning.
After feeding the bride, she put on red shoes and was carried downstairs by her cousin until she was taken to the wedding car.
Lin Wanwan, as the bridesmaid, sat in the wedding car. Also in the car with her were Gu Jingyu's cousin and cousin...
The Liang and Gu families are both from rural areas, but they are in different districts. It takes about forty minutes to drive. Along the way, Gu Jingyu's cousins chatted with Lin Wanwan, but their topics always revolved around marriage, and Lin Wanwan had no interest in it, so in the end, she simply
I picked up my phone and started browsing.
Smartphones are truly one of the best inventions in the world. When you don't want to communicate ineffectively with someone, just pretend to check your phone.
When approaching Liang Xingchi's village, the wedding convoy met a strange old man and old lady blocking the road. Lin Wanwan had never attended other people's weddings before, let alone a rural wedding. This was the first time.
She whispered: "Why do you start blocking the road here?"
The driver of the wedding car, who was also one of the man's family and friends, heard this and said, "There are many of us like this. When they see the wedding car, they bring out stools and stop them at the intersection to ask for money. It's not a good day for a big day.
If you argue with others, you will get killed."
Lin Wanwan stretched her head and watched Liang Xingchi bargaining with the old man and old lady in the car. The other party kept insisting on paying 2888 yuan, and finally couldn't afford to waste any time, so she had to agree.
Lin Wanwan was amazed by this. With this method, complete strangers can actually come and win red envelopes.
After all, the village over Gu Jingyu's side is full of relatives and friends, and they give red envelopes to make it lively and festive. Anyway, there are people coming and going, but why should the old man and old woman who are complete strangers do it? The newlyweds don't want to get into trouble.
The mentality is just to rip off someone!
Before even entering the village, Lin Wanwan already had contempt for the people in this area.
Since this phenomenon exists, it can be imagined that the quality of the people in this area is mostly unreasonable. As expected, birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
Anyway, through Gu Jingyu's various descriptions, Lin Wanwan has no favorable impression of Liang Xingchi's family, especially his shrewd parents.
After paying the red envelope for buying the road, the convoy was finally ready to leave. Not long after, it arrived at the door of Liang Xingchi's house. After getting off the car, Lin Wanwan ran to Gu Jingyu with a red umbrella, and the sound of firecrackers rang out at her feet.
Gu Jingyu's mother-in-law and several other women ordered Gu Jingyu to step on the sack and enter the door amidst the sound of firecrackers.
Lin Wanwan followed closely, and there were noisy sounds everywhere.
What's outrageous is that just before entering the door, a girl suddenly rushed out from nowhere and sprayed Gu Jingyu with colorful vegetable powder. Let alone Gu Jingyu, he followed her right.
Lin Wanwan in the rear suffered disaster.
Gu Jingyu was stunned by this sudden attack. The women who were jumping to let go of the colored powder gathered around her again, and led the bride's party inside.
"Don't stop. You can't stop. It's unlucky. Hurry up and go to your new house."
Gu Jingyu entered the house in a state of embarrassment. Lin Wanwan couldn't care less about herself and took care of it for her first.
"What is this! My wedding dress!" Gu Jingyu looked at the colored powder on her hands and wedding dress, and felt bad. She hurriedly asked Lin Wanwan, took the bag, took out the powder and looked in the mirror.
When she saw her makeup that was completely gone, Gu Jingyu suddenly collapsed: "What's wrong! I went to the bridal shop to put on makeup at four o'clock today! It took a full two hours! It costs 3,000 to rent my wedding dress.
Eight! Oh my god! Wanwan, how could this happen!"
Lin Wanwan felt quite sad when she saw Gu Jingyu's miserable appearance. His face and body were as colorful as if he had run a dyeing studio. It was impossible to clean them up without washing his hair and taking a shower.
Together with Gu Jingyu's cousins, she took out paper towels to wipe Gu Jingyu, while muttering in her mind: Are the people in Liang Xingchi's family stupid? Did they ruin the bride's wedding dress and makeup on the wedding day?
