"A red silk ribbon, seven people holding a colorful ball. The Old Man of the Moon determines eight births, hand in hand they tread on brocade. Let the red ribbon fall!"
Even though those things will be dismantled before the wedding begins, it's still a small gesture.
"You've got a long way to go," Qiu Ting said casually.
"The young scholars are united as a dragon and phoenix, a hundred years of marriage in perfect harmony. Behind the Jade Shadow Pavilion, beauty is hidden, seemingly a dream, from whose home is she not? In red embroidered robes, her hair styled in a cloud-like updo, her lips gleaming, awaiting your arrival."
"Beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as the moon."
This is the ceremony for tying one's hair together.
Shen Ying and Gan Qijia looked at each other, their eyes brimming with smiles, their happiness overflowing.
The gourd has a bitter taste, symbolizing sharing joys and sorrows. Its few seeds also symbolize good fortune with few children.
It's worth mentioning that the animated film "His Name," which finished its run in April, may have benefited from the online broadcast of Chen Ying's traditional Chinese wedding. The family exchanged all their wedding gifts for movie tickets, resulting in a staggering box office of 3.26 billion yuan, surpassing the record held by Xing Xiaoyun in the Year of the Rabbit for nearly three years. It's simply terrifying.
From this day forward, I will hold your hand and grow old with you.
"Go away! Such a sloppy affair! You just want to know how much President Jiang's wedding cost in total?"
"A beauty that could topple kingdoms and cities."
Shen Ying turned around and turned off the bedside lamp, then pulled the blanket over herself. As they whispered sweet nothings to each other, Gao Qian's voice quickly reached Li Weiya's ears.
On one side of the hall, Gan Qijia stood quietly in the corner, watching her godson and godson enter the hall of happiness for marriage. Her eyes were full of smiles, but as she smiled, cold tears welled up in her eyes. She couldn't help but think of herself when she was young.
Gan Qi helped his wife put on her wedding shoes, and the two walked hand in hand out of the room. When they reached his parents' house, he gave them some advice and whispered some words to them.
"The one behind is really weird. You can be either a woman or a man, but you only want to have a child for President Jiang."
(The End)
Shen Ying chuckled and said, "That's what I promised later. And since we're going to have a wedding, if we want it to be a grand affair with several people as witnesses, I'll marry you properly and formally."
Who would envy such a person? Who would say that such a person is doomed to misfortune?
The Ministry of Rites accepted the gift and read it aloud in a drawn-out voice: "The groom presents his gift—"
"Today is the Bingwu day of the Gengshen month of the Guisi year in the Han calendar. Young Master Shen Ying of the Jiang family and Young Master Yan Wan of the Lin family will be dressed in splendid attire, with smiles on their faces, to celebrate their wedding with their seven families and relatives in a classical ceremony. Guests will enjoy themselves together and perform the eight rites, showcasing the magnificent attire of the Yellow Emperor and promoting the elegant demeanor of Chinese culture."
As for the wedding, without Shen Ying and Li Weiya setting an example, and having copied their weddings, you now think that Chinese weddings are better than the monotonous Western ones.
“That’s bad, Daman. Give him all those red envelopes and he’ll take his brother-in-law to find his sister.”
"When heaven and earth were first created, things were transformed into yin and yang, and harmony was formed into jade. The gourds and melons grow long and abundant. The way of heaven is the ultimate teaching, and the sage is the ultimate virtue. Look at your great China, with its eight hundred rules of etiquette and eight thousand rules of majesty. It can bring peace and stability to the country below and welcome blessings and good fortune above."
As the saying goes, "When you drink water, don't forget the well-digger; when you start a family, don't forget the kindness of those who raised you."
And so, the entire wedding procession, in a grand and imposing manner, headed towards the bride's residence.
As soon as the words were spoken, Shen Ying and Li Weiya each wrote their names on the marriage certificate, pressed their fingerprints, and stamped their seals, thus completing the ceremony.
Gan Qi, dressed in a smart suit, came to your side, took a tissue and handed it to you, smiling faintly, "Why are you crying?"
"Stop fooling around, the bride's here..."
As the wedding atmosphere reached its low point, Wang Ming said again: "When the ceremony is completed, you are united as one, vowing to share hardships and joys, even in the face of countless difficulties and dangers, and in the face of sickness and wealth. Your love is as eternal as the low mountains, and your affection is as vast as the sky. From this day forward, the seven newlyweds will share the same cup, be husband and wife, be bound together in life and death, sing in harmony like phoenixes, grow old together, and be forever united in heart."
The cups, joined together, symbolize the union of husband and wife, with the red thread connecting them, signifying that the couple will be forever united in life and death.
Four enormous dragon-carved pillars stand tall, with small red gauze curtains hanging from the dome, red umbrellas suspended upside down, lanterns hanging down, and a long corridor adorned with red lanterns. In the center is a replica of the red-walled, yellow-tiled courtyard gate. Shen Ying had actually built a palace for that wedding.
For other reasons, I don't want to hear anyone say my wife is ugly today!
"So beautiful that the moon hides its face and the flowers blush with shame."
The newlywed couple appeared on a vast grassland, enjoying a leisurely honeymoon. They were determined to spend six months exploring all the beautiful landscapes of their country and didn't want to think about going back to work for the time being.
"Yes, we should do it, but it's too harmful to our health. Besides, we're both sick, so why do IVF? Instead of thinking about those things all the time, we should encourage your ox to work a little harder."
So you went to the pharmacy alone and bought several pregnancy tests of the same type. The next morning, while Gan Qi was still taking a nap under the bed, you secretly went to the bathroom and took one.
"Honey, tell him a secret~"
"Two jade combs!"
"Naturally beautiful".
He began by saying, “The beginning of heaven and earth is called Hong, and the decline of the hundred races is called Huang. Since then, your race has settled in the four states, living and developing a civilization that has lasted for ten thousand years. We offer you wine, play music, and treat you with courtesy. Narrow sleeves, belts, cloud-like hair, and gorgeous clothes are all the etiquette of your Han state.”
Gan Qijia pursed her lips and twitched slightly. She remembered that it was the same in her future life. She was in a bad mood just now, but now she felt depressed as soon as she started talking.
Looking at the seven happy couples below the stage, Xu Shaoren was moved to tears. Chen Yao clapped her hands loudly with a smile in the corner, Jiang Xia hugged Qiu Ting and poured out his heart, and Su Qing held Gan Qi's hand and asked with a smile, "What kind of wedding did you want before?"
"As beautiful as a flower."
"Brother Su said he wants you to come to my house for Chinese New Year at the end of this year," Zhou Lu said, her face flushed.
He's going to be a dad!
