19. The red lantern hangs high

Welcoming a bride is a very serious matter.

Fortunately, Ye Ying's side is that both the two elders of the Ye family and the two elders of the Chang family are very open-minded and don't pay much attention to traditional customs - well, even if they want to, they can't. The Chang family lives in the Northeast and the Ye family lives in East China. They are thousands of miles apart.

, if it weren’t for today’s advanced technology, it would be really troublesome to welcome a bride. Thanks to the explosion of black technology, a flying car can circle the earth in just a few hours, so it is possible to complete the feat of welcoming a bride thousands of miles away.

The hardware conditions are like this, so the two elders of the Chang family will naturally not be wordy. According to Xu Tu, who followed there as a liaison with a speech script, the relatives of the Chang family did not intend to embarrass him, and were only prepared to give him a symbolic call.

After several visits, even if he was allowed to pass, the deputy emcee Wang Chen, who had worked hard to show his face in front of his colleagues at the institute, felt very regretful and said privately, "I only used half of my 10% of my skills!"

” and other complaints. [bsp; However, Wang Hu’s side is much more troublesome...

Both Wang Hu's parents and Lin Lian's parents attach great importance to the wedding ceremony and require everything to be done according to tradition - perhaps they are using this method to remind the couple who are still a little too old.

Newcomers usually need to be more cautious, right?

The convoy that welcomes the bride cannot fly in the sky, but must walk on the ground; the speed is not allowed to be fast, and some firecrackers must be set off along the way to heighten the atmosphere. For this reason, Mr. Lin went to the Municipal Management Center yesterday and spent a lot of words to persuade

Don't stop the management center.

Not only that, the convoy that welcomes the bride must also circle around the city. The coming and going paths cannot overlap, and the entire path must form a circle - which means reunion and harmony.

Just the path back and forth made Cheng Peng spend a lot of time thinking. In the end, Wei Ye came up with a clever idea to solve the problem - indeed, there was no path that met the requirements in this city.

But as the saying goes, the dead are alive. If there is no road, then make a road!

This eloquent mustache and the equally eloquent Yue Yi set off separately, persuaded dozens of families, temporarily moved their houses, and suddenly created a beautiful circular road from the city, with its curvature

It's enough to make any mathematician nod his head in praise, and it fully meets the requirements of the elderly.

When the motorcade arrived at Lin's house, they immediately guarded the door and kept Wang Hu away - this is tradition. When the groom welcomes his bride, he has to ring at each door and answer all the questions raised by the bride's relatives to satisfy them.

Only then can you open the door and go in.

"When I got married, it wasn't so troublesome at all!" Uncle Zheng whispered with his son beside him. "At that time, I just shouted a few words and answered casually. The woman opened the door and asked for red envelopes, and then the best man and friends came to welcome the bride.

Push the door open hard—how can it be so long-winded!"

Cheng Peng looked at the composite electronic door that was strong enough to withstand rocket launchers at close range and could be freely opened anywhere when necessary, and then looked at the man in front of the door with a wry smile and answered one by one, promising numerous unequal treaties.

Wang Hu couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Technological progress is not entirely a good thing!

Fortunately, the relatives of the Lin family were not unreasonable and acted recklessly. They made things difficult for Wang Hu several times and finally let him in.

After passing through one door after another, he finally opened the bride's boudoir and welcomed Lin Lian, who was dressed dignifiedly and elegantly, without any trace of the aggressive spirit in the game.

At this time, it was Lin Lian's mother's turn to entrust her daughter to her son-in-law.

Although she knew that it was easy to meet each other, her mother was reluctant to let her daughter get married. She told her daughter to be virtuous and kind after marriage, and at the same time she asked her son-in-law to treat her daughter well... As she spoke, tears came down. Mother and daughter The two wanted to hold each other's hands and cry. It was really touching. Even Wen De, who was known for his heartlessness, couldn't help but his eyes turned red. Cheng Peng even thought about how he had been separated from yin and yang since he was a child and could only appear in the photo. The parents I met on...

Because of this episode, after completing the wedding ceremony, everyone had to reapply their makeup to prevent a group of colorful faces from appearing at the wedding ceremony and making people laugh. Fortunately, Shen Qi, who is good at makeup, had already anticipated this possibility and brought a full set of cosmetics with her. He was on standby so that the auspicious time was not delayed.

The convoy carrying the bride set off slowly and circled half a circle in the city along the road temporarily opened by Wei Yeyueyi and the others. When the departure path and the return path formed a circle, they just arrived at the destination - Wang Hu's home - well, it's his parents' home now.

Stepping on the red carpet and entering the door, the two elders of the Wang family spoke one after another, stammering out the two paragraphs they had planned in advance as if they were endorsements - basically to comfort their daughter-in-law, promising that they would treat her well in the future, just like they would treat their own daughters; and then warned them. The son must be attentive and take care of the family...and so on.

Actually, that's all I want to say, and these words haven't changed much for thousands of years.

So later on, the two elders, who showed their true feelings, simply put aside Cheng Peng's draft and started to express themselves freely.

According to their tradition, the next step is to serve tea, eat glutinous rice balls, etc., plus some other rituals and activities, and it’s noon before you know it.

This lunch should be very particular. The dishes should not be too many, and should not be rich. It should be as homely as possible, so that it can appear that the daughter-in-law is one of her own family when she comes in, no outsiders, no identity.

Of course, there were only the two elders of the Wang family and the newlyweds at the dinner table. As for the other people, whether they were the best man, bridesmaid or the master of ceremonies, they could only eat elsewhere.

"Good guy! I haven't eaten anything since the morning... I'm so hungry that my stomach is flat! This pork knuckle is good! It's thick and chewy! Especially the soup! Great!" Levi opened his cheeks and chewed. Heise really wanted to show off his food spirit and eat all the food in the restaurant, but who would be afraid of a big-bellied guy when opening a restaurant? In the end, he was defeated, and he could hardly even stand while eating. Can't get up.

Because they still had important things to attend to, they ate for a while before they were full. Cheng Peng and the others abandoned their food, Li Wei, Zhang Channian, who had started drinking at noon, and other lagging fellows, and hurried over to Ye Ying's side. .

At this time, Ye Ying's side had also finished welcoming the bride. Because they were worried that the groom and his friends would starve if they woke up early, the two elders of the open-minded Chang family completely ignored any traditional rules and prepared a banquet at their home for them to eat. They set off back only after they were full, and combined with the time spent on the way, Cheng Peng and the others were still waiting there for almost half an hour before they arrived late.

The approach of the Ye family is quite different from that of the Wang family. One look at the angry and angry-looking Ye family showed that the mighty and powerful father Ye was not talking nonsense at all. He just dragged Ye Ying over and pushed him in front of his wife.

"I have two sons. The eldest son has an awkward personality, can't speak, and can't make friends. It's a blessing for this boy to meet such a good girl like you! We stay away from him and we can't control him.

If you see him, you have to discipline him well and don't let this kid do anything stupid - if he is dishonest in any way, just tell us and I'll beat him!"

"Hey! That's not what the line says! Besides, there's no way he would threaten to beat someone up on a big day!" Ye Ying protested angrily, but was glared back by his autocratic father.

As for Ms. Ye, her approach was even simpler - she directly took out a few cards, some without names, some with names, and one of the cards had Ye Ying's face clearly printed on it.

She solemnly handed the card to Chang Shizhong and said sincerely: "A Ying is a boy who likes to play since he was a child and can't save money. In order to prevent him from spending money indiscriminately, he will end up eating too much.

Dun, his salary card has been kept with me all these years, and now it is handed over to you!"

In this era of black technology, people seem to have stepped into the era of communism. This bank card that has firmly controlled Ye Ying for many years is actually of little use, but although the card is useless, its meaning is still there!

Chang Zhi took the bank card with a smile and looked back at Ye Ying. Her eyes were moving, happy and angry at the same time. It was so charming that Ye Ying's eyes went straight and he forgot to speak for a while.

Today is destined to be a very busy day. Here, the wedding ceremony is over. Ye Ying and Chang Shi want to take a rest after traveling, but over there they have to rush to the church to hold the wedding.

Xiao Moran and Chen Wumian had already arrived at the church. Xiao Moran was the one to add to the ceremony. The important thing was that Chen Wumian brought several lively, cute and sensible children to act as the flower girls carrying the bride's dress that are necessary for European weddings.

.

To be honest, the priest of the church did not really approve of four people who did not believe in God come here to hold a wedding. He had previously muttered: "We are a church here, a place to serve God! It is not a marriage agency! It is not a notary office."

!Why do the Chinese regard our place as a place to witness marriages? At least you should be baptized and believe in God..."

However, saying it is one thing and doing it is another.

The middle-aged priest has become accustomed to this practice of coming to God to witness marriages even though he clearly does not believe in God. He is quite familiar with the process, although there was a slight accident during the process - when the priest asked both parties to swear that they would love each other forever and never leave each other.

When we give up, care for each other, respect each other, and join hands for a lifetime, Wang Hu actually forgot his words!

Apart from adding some jokes to everyone, this little episode did not cause any trouble. In fact, this kind of situation is very rare for everyone, but it is common for priests who have presided over weddings for many years, and it is easy to guide them.

In the past, many people had taken photos of Wang Hu, who had forgotten his words and was dumbfounded and scratching his head. He would inevitably be ridiculed for this in the future.

Compared with Wang Hu, Ye Ying's performance in the church was much better. Probably because he had prepared enough in advance, he actually said a long paragraph about "I will always love you" before the priest could speak.

, what "you are not only my joy, but also the crown on my head", what "from now on, I will take care of you, respect you, protect you. I will give my life to you"... seriously

Expertly messed up!

All in all, when the priest said, "Now the groom can kiss the bride," everyone cheered!

Second update~

These chapters are about reality... In fact, they are mainly intended to write about people's lives under black technology. After all, this book belongs to the "science fiction game" category. I have to write something about science fiction.
