My cousin Feng Jun is quite popular. He got married on the 3rd and already has over 40 classmates on the 1st, including college classmates and high school classmates.
My sister-in-law Xu Wenjing has slightly fewer classmates, but they are still in their twenties.
It's a little better for my relatives. On the day of the wedding, you can just charter a car.
The "maternal family" who would pick up the bride during the wedding was arranged to go to her brother-in-law's house. In this way, the pick-up was close, but a large convoy of cars had to go around the city to pick up the bride. Otherwise, the convoy would have moved the community where the brother-in-law's home was.
Surrounded.
Being so close, there is no need to leave too early. The bus to pick up relatives and friends will pick up the person, and the motorcade to pick up the bride will slowly set off.
The chief wedding planner and general conductor is the director of the Bihailantian Wedding Banquet Department. He has rich wedding experience and is able to arrange things in an orderly manner.
Zhou Yan, on the other hand, led a group of classmates, along with his second aunt and uncle, to guard the door of the hall to welcome guests.
Cousins Feng Bei and Li Jinling were sitting happily in the hotel lobby, chatting with Qin Ruoshu, Han Ning, and Ye Lei's daughter-in-law Ding Li.
"Brother," Feng Bei is really not a person who can hold his temper. After sitting for a while, he came close to Jiang Zhe, "You said that the motorcade that picked up the bride hasn't come back yet, and it's only such a short distance away?"
"I guess it's still early!" The second uncle's face, which was already full of satisfaction, smiled even more. "There are many ways to get married in northern Shaanxi. I drove there a few years ago and happened to meet him.
Once, within one or two hours, the program could not be completed..."
"Isn't it at my uncle's house?" Feng Bei was still a little confused.
"Didn't you notice when we were having dinner in the morning?" Zhou Yan smiled helplessly, "In addition to the bridesmaids, my sister-in-law had several relatives and classmates who also went with her. They must have gone to cause trouble...
"
"It's just that my uncle has to work hard again," Feng Bei's smile contained a bit of schadenfreude and a bit of pride, "When my cousin got married, he was the person in charge of the kitchen; this time, my nephew-in-law lives at home.
,still the same……"
"Oh, by the way..." The second uncle glanced at the accountant responsible for keeping accounts, "Brother, I have clearly recorded the relationship. The bride will have a homecoming banquet when she comes back."
"clear……"
Within a few minutes, the greeter at the door reported through the intercom that relatives and friends had arrived.
However, Zhou Yan was happy when he saw clearly who was coming: his parents, aunt, uncle, and cousin.
After Zhou Yan and his mother entered the door, they went straight to the account and said to the second aunt and uncle: "Hey, second sister, congratulations! My daughter-in-law is finally a mother-in-law! Second brother-in-law, you can have your grandson soon!"
"Congratulations, I'm going to be my great-aunt soon!"
The brothers-in-law chatted for a while before Father Zhou turned his attention to Zhou Yan.
"Dad, this is my high school classmate, here to help..."
"Hello, uncle!"
After saying hello, Zhou Yan glanced at Ying Bo, who was holding a tablet: "Brother Bo, just tell the waiter about the room..."
Not long after Zhou Yan's parents went upstairs, his aunt's family also arrived, a typical example of "people who are close to home tend to be late".
After the familiar relatives arrived, Zhou Yan cheered up: I didn't know many of my mother's cousins, cousins, and even though I had already sorted them with tables and arranged the rooms, it was useless if I didn't know them.
What's even more troublesome is that relatives from my second uncle's hometown also arrived...
Fortunately, Feng Bei was always at home and was very familiar with his relatives. Feng Bei could even name many relatives from his grandma's family whom Zhou Yan didn't know.
"This is the second aunt of our uncle and grandpa's family..."
"This is……"
"Brother, you should be familiar with these two people, right?" Feng Bei smiled and stared at Qin Fangyuan and his wife who were chatting with his second aunt and uncle.
"You are the only one who is smart!" Zhou Yan rolled his eyes and looked back at Qin Ruoshu, who was sharing interesting things about the boudoir, "Ruoshu, our parents are here..."
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" Qin Ruoshu's smile was full of surprise.
"Why can't we come? We all rely on Lao Feng for our hot pot and barbecue..."
After the two relatives went upstairs, there were also the comrades of the second uncle's comrades, as well as partners who had a closer relationship.
Zhou Yan saw that people had almost arrived, so he called the lobby manager who was responsible for statistics: "Lao Meng, how many guests on the list have arrived?"
"The total number of guests is three hundred and seven, and it has reached two hundred and ninety-nine." Zhou Yan turned around and looked at his second uncle.
"In the accounting room, there are already 3,045 people paying accounts..."
Zhou Yan nodded, took the tablet from the lobby manager, and handed it to his second uncle: "Take another look to see if there are any important guests who haven't arrived yet..."
"We are all here. There should be some people who are not familiar with each other. They are just following the others..."
"That's good, my brother's side will be almost there soon, let's go upstairs first!"
As soon as Zhou Yan finished speaking, a message from the wedding control room came through the headset: "The bride has been received and is expected to arrive within half an hour. Please prepare all departments..."
Although it was my cousin's wedding, there were more than twenty guests who came from the management of Qingyan Agricultural Machinery, which was still preparing. It was a bit inappropriate for these guests to let people from my second uncle's side serve as fermented wine. Zhou
Yan You had no choice but to arrange Ying Bo, Zhao Yang and others.
"Brother Bo, let me introduce to you the management of Qingyan Agricultural Machinery Company..."
"Brother Peng, this table is..."
Zhou Yan had just made arrangements and returned to the hall to find his second uncle waiting for him.
"Nephew, ordinary people can't accompany Cheng Lidong to the table..." The second uncle said with a bitter smile, "You have to come..."
"no problem……"
When he arrived at the room and opened the door, Zhou Yan discovered that in addition to Cheng Lidong, there was also Zhao Yongquan, a senior official from Hongcheng County who had sent condolences to his grandma and grandpa during the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2012, in the room.
"Hey, Secretary Zhao, you're a rare visitor!" Zhou Yan smiled and sat down in the host's seat.
Zhao Yongquan and Cheng Lidong were not surprised, but others in the room were a little surprised to see a young man sitting on it.
"Mr. Zhou, although I came here today for a happy occasion for Mr. Feng's family, you have to have some excuse for letting us drink, right?"
"Secretary Zhao, what else do you want to say?" Zhou Yan said with a bad smile, "How much tax does my second uncle's logistics company pay to the county every year?"
"You kid..." Zhao Yongquan shook his head helplessly.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce you. This is my second uncle's partner, my father-in-law and me, Cheng Lidong, Mr. Cheng."
Apart from Cheng Lidong and Zhao Yongquan, Zhou Yan was familiar with two or three of the people sitting there.
The rest were naturally introduced by Zhao Yongquan, most of whom were users of his second uncle Feng Weiguo, and quite a few of them were engaged in primary processing of agricultural products.
After the introduction, Zhao Yongquan looked at Cheng Lidong with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, you should have heard of Hongcheng. It has a complete range of agricultural products and rich tourism resources. Welcome to invest and build factories in Hongcheng..."
"Secretary Zhao, you are really..." Zhou Yan was speechless, "Wherever you go, you never forget to solicit investment..."
"Mr. Zhou, if you are willing to invest in our Hongcheng, our entire county party committee will line up to welcome you..."
"Hey..." Zhou Yan shook his head helplessly, "Your side also has the headquarters of the First Division during the Anti-Japanese War. The conditions can be said to be unique..."
