The third day of the third month of the lunar calendar.
The sky is clear, the spring breeze is warm, and the sun is shining brightly. Even the trees in every house in and outside the village seem to have many more buds than they sprouted yesterday.
Erdao Street to the north of Shuanghe Village's central street leads directly to Xu Zhengyang's house in the east of the village. Small red triangular flags are hung on both sides of the street, extending from east to west to the outside of the village. The courtyard gate of Xu Zhengyang's house
Above, two red flags were erected, slowly stretching in the breeze...
A row of red cars lined up on the street, with a white BMW at the head and tail.
The black Mercedes-Benz float was parked at the front entrance of Xu Zhengyang's house, waiting for today's protagonist, the groom, Xu Zhengyang, to get on the car.
In view of the fact that there were not many people from the woman's side to see her bride off today, the Xu family made a decision. Some relatives of the Xu family, as well as people with good relations, as well as people who could be called consuls today, all got in the car and went with them to welcome the bride.
Is it lively? The more people, the better.
Of course, this was agreed upon by my mother-in-law Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan was determined to do this, and it was a bit out of pity. Well, it was with the relatives of this family and the Jiang family... Anyway, now the marriage has been decided and cannot be changed. As a relative, I
People should bless and recognize the newlyweds. However, these dignitaries from the mother's family, as well as some people from the Li family, always show contempt and disdain in their forced smiles, and occasionally express some dissatisfaction in their conversations.
This made Jiang Lan feel as uncomfortable and heartbroken as if he had eaten a fly.
My daughter's wedding is the most important day in her life! How can it be like what she did back then, which seemed to be so glorious, but in fact all her relatives and friends had their own agendas, just going through the motions, and making things up, and there was no one who wished her sincerely.
Maybe they all feel that Li Bingjie's marriage to Xu Zhengyang is a huge loss to both families? Many words
After all, Xu Zhengyang has no power. Even if he has some money, who would take a small logistics company seriously? In the face of power, money is simply a vassal. How much he wants is just a matter of words, isn't it?
Jiang Lan sneered secretly in her heart, my son-in-law is really powerful and powerful!
It's a pity that I can't let you know because of too special reasons.
Without further ado, let's talk about nine o'clock in the morning. The convoy here to welcome the bride is about to set off.
Zhong Zhijun and several young people lit firecrackers at the entrance of the hospital. Some middle-aged people and some young people in the village also went over to join in the fun. Firecrackers went off in unison, two kicks shot into the sky, fireworks bloomed, and it was extremely lively.
Xu Zhengyang was wearing a crisp black suit, with a groom's flower hanging on his left chest. After being dressed up by this special person, he looked particularly energetic and handsome, completely losing the calm and sophisticated demeanor that he had not experienced these days, youth, sunshine, and smile.
A full face means a person is radiant and full of energy.
Holding a bouquet of bright roses in his hand, he walked to the float and bowed, then asked an uncle from a family with the same surname in the village to get on the float, and then he got on the float.
According to rural customs, when the wedding procession sets off, an elder of the family must accompany the groom in the float. However, Xu Zhengyang’s family does not have any close relatives in Shuanghe Village, so they can only find an elder with the same surname.
Go together.
Amidst the constant sound of firecrackers and red dust all over the ground, Chen Chaojiang and his group boarded a minivan with an open back. They were responsible for lighting the firecrackers in front to guide the way. Then a white BMW followed;
Then came the floats, and then the lively red cars carrying relatives and friends.
At the very back, there was also a white BMW.
Behind and in the middle of the motorcade, closely following, were a total of three black jeeps, all of which were videographers arranged by the wedding company...
The vehicle went straight south from the door of Xu Zhengyang's house, along the outer wall of the new primary school to the main street in the middle of the village. The motorcade followed closely behind, then circled and headed towards the west of the village.
The sound of firecrackers continued all the way!
The sound of firecrackers stopped for a while after driving onto National Highway 107. However, according to custom, firecrackers will be lit whenever we encounter an intersection, cross a bridge, or turn a corner.
Along the way, pedestrians and vehicles would look away, smile, or look at the wedding convoy with admiration.
It is no exaggeration to say that such a formation is probably a rare scene in the entire Ci County.
The convoy traveled north to the South Ring Road of Fuhe City, then turned left and drove along the South Ring Road to the West Ring Road. It took the West Ring Road to the national highway leading to Hexi Province, and then drove west.
It took one hour and fifteen minutes for the convoy to get off the national highway and drive slowly towards the courtyard house.
As a result, the float stopped sideways at the entrance of the courtyard, and the entire convoy also stopped. As a result, the last BMW just came off the national highway not far away...
The loud crackling sound of firecrackers resounded throughout this usually quiet and elegant place. Countless gunpowder smoke curled up, creating a lively atmosphere.
To say that Jiang Lan has become really different now, I just listened to my mother-in-law Yuan Suqin's words. According to the local customs in Shuanghe Village, when a daughter is getting married, two red flags must be planted on the courtyard door...
Although most people in the village knew that the bride's family background was different from the ordinary ones, they were not overly restrained. We are a team here to welcome the bride. No matter how rich or noble you are, we are only here for fun and celebration. Therefore, as soon as the motorcade stopped, people immediately
All the people in the vehicles got out of the vehicles and rushed here on foot, noisily pouring into the courtyard.
This courtyard has never been so lively at any time, and the joyful atmosphere reaches into the sky.
The Jiang family and the Li family came to live in this courtyard early, just to see their relatives today. In addition to disgust and dissatisfaction, their faces were more surprised. Have they ever seen such a lively, even chaotic scene?
Good guys, it's like going to the market as mentioned in the book, it's noisy. Everyone seems to be your own wife, smiling and happy.
The most awkward thing about this is the seven or eight security guards who were specially assigned to maintain order and prevent accidents during this period. Well, firecrackers are inherently dangerous things, but they cannot be stopped.
And today, so many people came in disorder, and they couldn't refuse to enter... Their spirits became highly tense.
Just as nervous as them, there were also the ghost agents of the Chenghuang Mansion in Fuhe City. Under the direct leadership of the judge Li Haidong, who was beaming with joy, they nervously watched everyone's every move to prevent unexpected situations from happening.
The noisy welcoming procession surrounded the groom Xu Zhengyang and entered the main room. Well, there were people inside and outside the room.
Jiang Lan welcomed everyone with a smile on his face. Jiang Lan's eldest brother Jiang Yuan had to sit down at the table with the consul in the welcoming team and the elder of the Xu family with a smile on his face because his sister had firmly told him.
There were some snacks on the table, red paper with their birthdays written on them, a few glasses of wine and an open bottle of Maotai.
Ouyang Ying, Xu Rouyue and several sisters-in-law and sisters from their relatives entered the back room where Li Bingjie was, and congratulated the women and girls of the Li family.
Because the Li family here was different from other places, there were no villagers watching, so the ones responsible for the booing were people from Shuanghe Village themselves.
Well, after a lot of commotion, candy began to be thrown in the courtyard and red envelopes were thrown...
Inside the house, Li Binghe's wife, Zeng Minxin, was encouraged and explained by the two sisters-in-law in the wedding team. She reluctantly walked out of the house with a forced smile. Her right hand was forced to put on a plastic bag and squeezed a little.
A mixture of coal slime and black shoe polish, and then a group of young people cheered, black face, black face!….
Zeng Minxin, dumbfounded, stepped forward and painted groom Xu Zhengyang's face as instructed.
After the sister-in-law finished smearing her face, a group of young people noisily surrounded Xu Zhengyang to carry the bride onto the float!
Xu Zhengyang, who was born and raised here, is of course very clear about this process. However, Jiang Lan and Yuan Suqin's parents must have discussed it in advance so that Jiang Lan could make arrangements.
Of course Xu Zhengyang is aware of his mother-in-law's dissatisfaction with relatives of the Li family and the Jiang family. In fact, Xu Zhengyang is not very angry about this. I am marrying my wife just for the sake of happiness. What will it do to you? You are not happy.
?I just want to make it more prosperous and lively, and the happier it will be!
How do you say it? I am very happy, so I show it to make you even more unhappy...
so!
The people in Li Bingjie's family did not do anything in the house, but the relatives of the Xu family hid the shoes and bridal flowers early for Xu Zhengyang to find.
As soon as Xu Zhengyang, who had a black face, entered the room, he was stunned together with Li Bingjie who was sitting on the bed.
Li Bingjie usually doesn't wear makeup, but today the makeup artist arranged her hair and put on makeup. However, according to what the makeup artist said, there is really no need for Li Bingjie to put on heavy makeup, because she is naturally beautiful, and wearing heavy makeup is not good.
Instead, she put on a pure white wedding dress, and her slightly blushing cheeks looked like a blooming lotus, so delicate and charming that she was really extremely beautiful.
What Li Bingjie was surprised about was why Xu Zhengyang was painted with a big black face? Just like a bear... Li Bingjie couldn't help but cover her lips with her hands and smiled. This smile was even more charming.
Xu Zhengyang was so excited that he really wanted to fly to heaven with Li Bingjie in his arms and place her in the so-called Biyue Palace in heaven, where the fairy should be.
Originally, because he was slightly "unwell", he sat in the room and rarely moved. Ye Wan, who was a little curious and stunned by such a lively wedding scene, couldn't help laughing when he saw Xu Zhengyang being wiped out like this.
He trembled, and looked at Chen Chaojiang with a smile, thinking that I would have to ask my sister-in-law to make you look like such a black face.
Today, Ye Wan put on Li Bingjie's simple and elegant short skirt, but she still couldn't hide her dashing and heroic appearance. However, poor Ye Wan couldn't live up to the wind-like demeanor of a strong woman today. Her body...
...discomfort.
Chen Chaojiang naturally noticed Ye Wan's gaze, and a slightly shy smile suddenly appeared on his cold cheeks.
Poor Brother Jiang...
Little tricks such as hiding shoes and bridal flowers are naturally not a problem for Xu Zhengyang.
However, Xu Zhengyang still pretended to look for it, which made Li Bingjie secretly smile.
In the end, Xu Zhengyang had no choice but to hand out red envelopes and asked everyone to help him find red high-heeled shoes and bridal flowers. He personally leaned over to help Li Bingjie put on the bridal flowers and shoes.
Then……
Amid the cheers and cheers of the crowd, Xu Zhengyang bent over, picked up Li Bingjie and walked out.
Li Bingjie buried her face in Xu Zhengyang's arms in shame, and everyone crowded around and walked out. Seeing this, Ye Wan quickly got up, grinned and endured the pain and fatigue all over his body, and followed out. Chen Chaojiang was among a group of buddies.
When Ye'er rushed out early, he stayed behind and reached out to help Ye Wan. However, Ye Wan gave him a hard look and whispered: "Aren't you tired? You are still running back and forth like others."
Chen Chaojiang was ashamed, how could he not be tired? He was almost exhausted last night.
Outside, Jiang Lan was beaming with joy. With the help of the consul from the wedding team, she greeted her relatives with a smile on her face to come out and see her off!
Outside the door, the sound of firecrackers rang again, and it was more lively than before!
After getting on the sedan chair, the whip sounded 20,000 times. Amidst the crackling sound and smoke, Xu Zhengyang hugged his wife and went straight to the float. The driver there had already helped open the door, and the young couple quickly got into the car...
The chief steward, Zhou Qingguo, the village party secretary of Shuanghe Village, shouted: "The newlyweds are getting on the sedan!"
The artillery truck was the first to start. A few young people lit firecrackers on the car, turned around and drove back, followed by the white BMW, the float... and drove slowly towards the national highway, following the convoy.
On the narrow road, vehicles were driving toward each other. One after another stopped in front of the courtyard gate, picked up people, and then turned back.
Finally, the number of people became less and less, until everyone got on the car, and the leading gun truck and the white BMW were already on the national highway.
But the cameraman was so busy, what a good guy, running back and forth to take pictures.
In the convoy, the guards were sitting separately, still highly nervous.
What’s interesting is that at Wang Yongyong’s suggestion, several ghost agents shamelessly sat on the shoulders of the guards. Judge Li Haidong and the ghost agent captain Su Peng didn’t care about this. They were happy today and let them go.
He goes...
What's depressing is that the people at Li Bingjie's house seeing off her bride, except for her brother and mother, the security personnel, and Wu's mother, all of them had forced smiles on their faces and felt extremely awkward. What are they doing?
Separate cars alone, accompanied by these bumpkin from the countryside. And... they are so enthusiastic that you have to smile and continue talking.
I'm so happy today. No matter what your status is, you can't ruin the happiness of the Li family, right?
The motorcade drove smoothly towards Shuanghe Village.
At this time, in Xu Zhengyang's home in Shuanghe Village, a banquet has been set up in the four west rooms, and guests have been seated. It is roughly as follows: Zhao Qing, the former Ci County Public Security Director and currently the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation of the Fuhe City Public Security Bureau, Ci County
Zhong Shan, Director of the Public Security Bureau, Pang Zhong, Director of the Fuhe Municipal Public Security Bureau, Xiao Hanjun, Political Commissar, and Yu, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee
Zhenbang, Mayor Cao Jingnan; Gu Ye Yao Chushun, general manager of Guxiangxuan Antique Shop in Fuhe City, Tang Jing with Jade Hands from the capital, Hu Bayi the Smiling Buddha, Gundam Gundam, Jin Chang; and Huang Chen from the capital,
Yu Xuan, general manager of Jinghui Logistics Company Zhan Xiaohui and his wife, deputy general manager of Jinghui Logistics Company Wu Juan, father and daughter Dong Yuebu...
Wait, wait, wait, several tables are filled.
Of course, there are two large banquet tables reserved in the main room. They are the banquet for the woman to send off her husband and wife.

Today, the second update~~~
I won’t write about the wedding banquet in detail, it’s pretty much done, nothing went wrong, but I have to write about the wedding night, poor Zhengyang...
