Chapter 998 Welcoming and Accepting the Marriage (1)
The sky gradually brightened, and bright rays of light appeared at the end of the sea, intertwining in the sky like golden threads.
The seventy or eighty people staying in the big villa were in different states.
Ten or twenty people were resting quietly in the living room or guest room. They were taking a break after last night's carnival and waiting for the arrival of a new day.
Fifty or sixty people were all gathered in the square facing the sea, and bursts of laughter could still be heard from time to time.
They agreed to stay up all night to celebrate Chu Xuan's birthday, and these people really followed through on it.
Whether it was out of loyalty or simply to join in the fun, their presence made the atmosphere of this night very happy and joyful.
Wang Jinhua slowly stood up from the stool, clapped her hands a few times, and said loudly: "Friends! It's time to work!"
At this time, some friends in the square were chatting, sharing interesting things and joy in life;
Some were eating melon seeds and enjoying the leisurely time;
Others clinked glasses and drank, immersed in the joyful atmosphere.
Wang Jinhua's sudden voice made everyone startled.
Their eyes turned to the distance where the sea and sky were the same color, and they saw that the sky was already white as fish belly.
It's daybreak and it's really time to get to work.
Dong Zhihua stood up next to his wife, with a gentle smile on his face, and said: "Friends who are supposed to welcome the bride, please prepare with Teacher He and Chu Xuan. Friends who are waiting at home to welcome the bride, we will start packing now.
Clean up and clean every corner of the villa, okay?"
Chu Xuan also stood up, clasped his hands in his fists, bowed slightly, and said sincerely: "Brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, please, please, please work hard."
"Hurry up and prepare, leave the house to us." Hu Jun said boldly, waving his hand as if he was explaining an important battle.
"Xiaoxuan, bring the bride back safely." Liu Jialin teased, cracking melon seeds and sending her best wishes.
Chu Xuan made an "OK" gesture, patted He Jiong's shoulder, and then waved: "Come to welcome the bride!"
Afterwards, Deng Chao, Wu Jin, Zhang Jin, Hu Ge, Yuan Hong, Huang Xuan, Huang Bo, Nicholas Tse and other large numbers of people stood up at each table and followed Chu Xuan and He Jiong away in a mighty manner.
He Jiong, the general manager, was making arrangements in an orderly manner as he walked.
"Friends, the first step is to change into ancient costumes."
"The groom's wedding attire is a little troublesome. It may take a little longer. I'll be waiting for you in the living room."
"Second round, let's take the wedding gift and carry it to the door together."
"In the third ring, go to the door to meet the wedding team and line up your positions."
"Now, change clothes!"
After hearing He Jiong's arrangement, a group of old men dispersed noisily and dressed in ancient costumes to welcome the bride. This was the first experience in life for everyone, and everyone was very interested.
In the square, Wang Jinhua said: "The first round here is tidying up and cleaning; the second round is changing clothes; the third round is divided into two groups. The first group and the wedding people set up tables, wine barrels and stools.
and hung up the red ornaments in the square, and the second group of people went to block the door!"
Then, Wang Jinhua said with a smile: "Listen up, we, the groom, will suffer as much as we go to the bride's side, and the bride and her girl group will have to suffer as much as they enter my groom's house!"
"Okay!!" Hu Jun, Ren Quan, Liu Jialin and the friends present only found it extremely interesting. They seemed to have seen the lively scene that followed.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky became completely bright.
The sun's rays spread down from the sky like golden waterfalls. The golden light added a touch of warmth to today's wedding, as if it was the first to send sincere blessings.
At the gate of the villa, friends were busy carrying out boxes of redwood boxes.
The gifts in the box are all items with symbolic significance. The dowry gifts were given two days ago, and the gifts are given now just to cater to the momentum and process of welcoming the bride.
People from the wedding company are counting carefully to figure out how many people are needed to carry these boxes.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the hotel attendant drove a large truck to deliver breakfast from the hotel.
There were more than 100 people from the groom's group of relatives and friends and the wedding company. In a festive and tense atmosphere, everyone had a sumptuous breakfast.
"Mr. Wang, will we start the work in two batches?"
"Start construction in two batches!"
People from the wedding company began to unload the goods from the car.
The table selected by the family years ago, as well as the set of sky-blue tea sets, bowls, wine sets and other porcelain, were gently carried down.
Wang Jinhua waved her hand, and Hu Jun, Ren Quan and others stepped forward to help move it, and then went to the backyard square to lay and arrange it.
Among the other group of people in the wedding company, there were many porters.
All the men with big shoulders and round waists were dressed in ancient porter costumes and used carrying poles to carry these gifts.
These coolie men were also in high spirits. They had done wedding hard work for many years, and this was the first time they had to do the porter work of an ancient wedding. This kept them whispering to each other.
They didn't make preparations until the wedding planner waved.
He Jiong walked side by side with the wedding planner and began to direct the wedding team.
In ancient times, matchmakers were important figures.
As matchmakers, Su Chang and Jiang Xin need to follow the groom on both sides.
The groom will ride a horse, so Su Chang and Jiang Xin should accompany the horse on both sides.
This seems a bit dangerous. If the horse makes any movement, the two women may suffer.
"Don't worry, the horses are bred in captivity and are held by grooms. Nothing has ever happened to them," the wedding planner said.
After hearing this, Su Chang and Jiang Xin tried to stand up and boldly patted the horse's back. When they saw that the horse was not restless, the two women felt relieved.
As the best man, He Jiong was the core figure of the groom's group in the Song Dynasty. He needed to clear the way, knock on doors, etc. on behalf of the groom.
In this way, He Jiong was placed in front of the horse, which was the top position leading the way to welcome the bride.
Deng Chao, Zhang Jin, Wu Jin, the three great men of the "Never Break Up Group", and Luo Jin and Zhu Yawen, the two roommates, acted as "pioneers" to cooperate with He Jiong and walked at the forefront with He Jiong.
Huang Xuan, Hu Ge, Yuan Hong, Xie Tingfeng, Shi Xiaolong and others served as the accompanying groomsmen, following on both sides of the entire team.
Finally, there is the band. Two suona masters sit behind the sedan chair, and the gong team and drum team line up behind the two suona players.
Under the smiling eyes of a group of relatives and friends at the gate, the entire team began to commotion, each looking for its own place.
The first team: He Jiong and other pioneers.
The second team: the groom Chu Xuan rides a horse, the groom leads the horse, and the two matchmakers Su Chang and Jiang Xin are on the left and right.
Third party team: On both sides of the sedan chair that picks up the bride, there are two teams of temporary wedding actors dressed as maids, holding an umbrella in their right hand and a silk ribbon in their left hand, welcoming the bride onto the sedan chair with high-standard treatment.
The fourth team: the band follows the sedan chair and plays loud music to welcome the bride at any time.
The fifth team: a large group of celebrity groomsmen and friends, following behind the band.
Team 6: The porters carried boxes of gifts with red flowers hanging on them.
The seventh team: a group of temporary wedding actors dressed as servants, serving as the tail of the team.
The entire procession was 50 meters long, which may not be as grand as modern convoys, but it had a huge momentum of nearly a hundred people, and the atmosphere the procession could exaggerate was by no means comparable to modern wedding processions.
Just look at the villa park. Many wealthy people poked their heads out of their windows or went out to watch from a short distance away. They were all attracted.
"Chu Xuan! Happy wedding!" A woman sent her blessing from the window on the third floor of the villa.
Chu Xuan tilted his head and looked up again, clasping his fists happily and thanking: "Thank you!"
Wang Jinhua and the wedding planner stood side by side, and they kept looking at the time while chatting.
Half past nine...
Nine forty-five...
At 9:55, the wedding planner took a loudspeaker and shouted: "There are 5 minutes left, we are ready to go, all parties are ready!"
Hearing this sound, the entire team felt nervous. The relatives and friends watching at the door couldn't help but smile when they felt this nervousness and found it very interesting.
At the front of the team, He Jiong showed embarrassment on his face and said slowly: "There are only five minutes left, are you nervous? I suddenly feel super nervous."
Deng Chao, Luo Jin, and Zhu Yawen nodded repeatedly, each expressing that they did feel nervous in their hearts.
Zhang Jin went on to say: "If we were to welcome the bride in a motorcade, it would be better to sit in the car, but now we have to take the lead. This feeling is indeed very different from welcoming the bride in a car."
"Whatever." Wu Jin had a fearless look on his face, as if nothing in the world could scare him, and he said boldly: "Kill the gods if you block the gods, and kill the Buddhas if you block the Buddha. Drive away all those who stand in the way.
, as long as the bride can be welcomed out smoothly, it will be OK."
Deng Chao said with a hint of teasing: "Then what if Xie Nan stops you?"
Wu Jin's eyes widened and he responded confidently: "Kneel down and beg!"
"Pfft", Chu Xuan rode on a high horse, laughed heartily at Wu Jin's words, and said: "Say the most cowardly words in the most arrogant and coaxing tone."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this. Being disturbed by Wu Jin, the tension in the team was somewhat dissipated.
"It's 9:59! The band is ready!"
The wedding planner picked up the loudspeaker and shouted.
Immediately, the entire team fell silent in unison.
The nearby relatives and friends who came to watch, as well as the residents in the community, whether men, women, old or young, were full of expectations and quietly waited for the team to start.
The person who plays the suona has already put the suona firmly to his mouth and is ready to play;
The people who beat the gongs and drums also got ready to play music, just waiting for the order.
"Set off!!"
As soon as the order was given, the two suonas sounded at the same time, and a strong feeling that made people numb their scalp came over instantly.
Immediately afterwards, the noise of gongs and drums suddenly started, like a raging wave.
"Go, go, go, go."
He Jiong hurriedly stepped forward and walked forward, and Deng Chao and others quickly followed closely.
Chu Xuan rode his horse and started to move forward slowly under the guidance of the groom.
The team behind them also followed the pace of the front and gradually moved forward.
The security guards of the community and specially invited bodyguards carefully guarded the outermost layers on both sides of the team.
The sun poured down wantonly, and the dazzling light hit Chu Xuan's face, causing him to narrow his eyes slightly while sitting on a high horse.
As the team set off, his heart began to beat violently.
This feeling was really indescribable, and even gave him a trance-like feeling.
It seemed that he was so excited that his ears were ringing a little, and he completely turned a deaf ear to the noise in the team in this silence.
Su Chang raised his head and saw Chu Xuan's appearance, so he raised his hand high and pointed at Chu Xuan with his finger.
Jiang Xin saw Su Chang's fingers from the horseback and raised her head to look at Chu Xuan's face. She instantly understood what Su Chang meant and couldn't help but feel very funny.
The groom looked a little tense and sluggish at this time, and he looked really interesting.
The large villa is only 1 kilometer away from the entrance of the community. With the team moving at such a slow speed, it would probably take about ten minutes to walk.
On the roadside at the gate of the community, there were two police cars flashing red and blue lights. The police, security guards, and bodyguards were maintaining order at the gate.
The scene across the street was really crowded and lively.
If there were no traffic police to help maintain order, many people would have a strong urge to rush across the road.
The streets here in the community are even more crowded. Paparazzi, self-media and TV media have gathered here. They are crowded in the crowd, holding cameras or video cameras, trying to seize the space, just to be ready for shooting.
March 5th is the couple’s wedding day, and this matter has long been made public on the Internet.
The couple is planning to hold an ancient wedding, and now the news has spread all over the Internet.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Many netizens also guessed from the self-portraits of the guests and friends that the couple held a Song Dynasty wedding.
According to the wedding customs of the Song Dynasty, the wedding time in the morning was either eight o'clock or ten o'clock.
Eight o'clock represents success and wealth, while ten o'clock represents perfection. The meaning of time in these two traditions has been stripped clean by netizens.
Therefore, many local fans in Shenzhen, including fans and friends from nearby cities and counties, swarmed in from all directions at around 7 o'clock today, with the purpose of seeing with their own eyes Chu Xuan's welcoming and receiving ceremony.
grand scene.
"Coming, coming."
The sound of the suona became louder and louder, and people on the street stared at the door of the community, eager to see through.
When the leader came out, there was a commotion in the crowd.
"Teacher He!" someone shouted and waved to He Jiong.
"Brother Chao!" Many people shouted the names of the others.
The scene was noisy for a while.
And when Chu Xuan appeared on horseback, the already noisy market atmosphere became even more noisy.
Wearing a scarlet robe and a golden crown on his head, he showed his heroic spirit.
In the eyes of the crowd, Chu Xuan at this moment merged with the young marshal Lin Shu in "Legend of Red Flame", just like Lin Shu going to marry Princess Nihuang.
Many fans had this sense of déjà vu and became excited.
"Chu Xuan!"
"Chu Xuan! So handsome!"
Chu Xuan had already recovered from his trance. Facing the gathering and shouting of many fans on the street, he smiled and hugged his fists.
When he was going through the process a few days ago, he felt a little embarrassed to appear on the modern street wearing ancient clothes.
But today, there is no embarrassment at all, only the surging passion and excitement in my heart.
The hotel and the community are next door to each other, and it only takes a minute to walk there.
Witnessed by the masses, the procession to welcome the bride walked for two or three minutes, and the celebrities in Song Dynasty costumes made their eyes light up and they were constantly surprised.
Until the team entered the hotel park, the crowd still did not disperse.
Just kidding, the bride hasn’t even come out yet, how can she leave now?
