The eldest sister-in-law had already received a notice from the host family that the bride would not accept red envelopes when serving tea, which is commonly known as "passing on the table", meaning that only tea will be served at the banquet and no red envelopes will be accepted.
The bride does not have to serve the tea herself, the purpose is to let everyone share in the joy.
A batch of red Double Happiness paper cups filled with red dates, wolfberries, candied dates, and candied winter melon have been prepared, and a kettle filled with tea has been prepared.
There are ten paper cups on a red tray. One person is responsible for pouring tea and the other is responsible for putting the paper cups away.
The eldest sister-in-law held the tray steadily in one hand and handed it to the middle of the table: "After drinking the new bride tea, you will be rich and prosperous. Please help yourself."
Guests usually raise their hands to take the paper cups. A table usually holds ten people, so ten cups are prepared. If there are more or less, or if someone brings a child and asks for an extra cup, the person behind will immediately fill in the gap.
As the bride, Su Tiantian only needs to be supported by the bridesmaid, follow the eldest sister-in-law closely, and smile.
People kept congratulating Su Tiantian, wishing her a happy wedding, a long-lasting marriage, and a baby soon.
It's not that there aren't some people who put themselves in a difficult position. Someone asked the elder sister-in-law to sing a song before they would be willing to drink tea. This was easy, as the elder sister-in-law was talented and she started singing right away.
Some people ask the elder sister-in-law to say a few more words of blessing before she is willing to drink. This is also easy. It depends on what the person says and the elder sister-in-law will respond accordingly.
"When sweet tea is in your mouth, you will soon have children and grandchildren."
"After drinking the bride's tea, the children are obedient and well-mannered."
"After drinking the new bride's tea, the tea is in your mouth, the money is in your hands, and the windfall is in your hands."
Some people also ask for more tea, and the aunt will add more tea.
Some people would only drink if the bride personally handed it to them, or they would deliberately make things difficult. This is when Wu Xilun appeared. He was Liu Liangjie's secretary and was familiar with Liu Liangjie's business circle, so he was no problem for polite socializing.
Shi Xiaoqin, Dajinjie, Ren Zhengmin and others will deal with some people's difficulties. What is the host's intention? The bride cannot be wronged. If there are difficulties, there will naturally be people to stop them. If they don't give face to the host, then the host doesn't have to give them face either.
Su Tiantian whispered to Li Yunling, "I laughed so hard that my face became numb."
Li Yunling whispered, "My legs are sore from standing."
Ren Zhenglin said, "My hands and feet hurt."
Looking at the three people who were whispering, Shi Xiaoqin glared at them, and they had no choice but to follow her obediently.
After walking around, I feel really tired.
Shi Xiaoqin whispered to Su Tiantian: "You are just tired. Look at Jingze, he is even more tired, and he drank so much."
Su Tiantian looked at Liu Jingze and others who were surrounded in the crowd, and she knew without thinking that they were more tired than her.
By the time the guests who had toasted wine and tea sat down, the other guests had almost finished their meal. Liu Jingze and Su Tiantian went to the lounge to change clothes, and the best man and bridesmaid followed them.
Su Tiantian changed out of her dragon and phoenix gown and put on a short-sleeved, champagne-colored slim-fitting cheongsam with low-key floral patterns, a Chinese stand-up collar, delicate floral embellishments, and metal buttons that exude an ancient charm. She also changed her shoes to champagne-colored mid-heel shoes.
Makeup artist A Yin quickly fixed her makeup and hairstyle. Liu Jingze was wearing a dark blue suit this time.
Liu Jingze said, "A Ling, where is Tian Tian's coat?"
Li Yunling quickly took out a red knitted long-sleeved jacket, and Liu Jingze took it and carefully put it on Su Tiantian: "Tiantian, are you tired?"
Su Tiantian grabbed Liu Jingze's hand and said, "My aunt said that I was just tired, but you drank a lot of wine and it was even harder for you."
Liu Jingze said: "I didn't drink much actually. They helped me to drink."
Zheng Ziyang said, "Yes, we are a group of people blocking the wine, but I guess someone will come to you to toast later. Sister-in-law, just take a sip of the wine, you don't have to drink it all at once."
Sure enough, as soon as the bride and groom came out, some people came to toast them and some came to take pictures with them.
After the wedding banquet ended, they returned home to their new house. When they sat on the bed covered with red sheets with auspicious dragon and phoenix patterns, Su Tiantian said, "Brother Jing, how are you? You drank so much wine. I'll go get you some honey water."
Liu Jingze pulled Su Tiantian, who was about to stand up, and said, "No need. Someone will take you to the living room soon. How are you? Are you tired?"
Su Tiantian said, "I laughed so hard that my face became numb. I didn't drink much, but with you guys here, I stopped drinking a lot."
Liu Jingze stretched out his right hand and twisted Su Tiantian's face: "Tiantian, you don't know how beautiful you are today. It's great that we are finally together."
Su Tiantian said: "We have been together since last month and have already obtained a marriage certificate."
Liu Jingze hugged Su Tiantian and said, "You have such a lovely mouth, why did you say such a depressing thing? You know I didn't mean it. In my heart, only after getting the marriage certificate and holding the wedding can it be considered complete. I want you to marry me in a grand ceremony, with formal matchmakers, and I want them all to know that you are my, Liu Jingze's, wife."
Su Tiantian said firmly: "Even without a grand wedding, I am willing to marry you, just because you are Liu Jingze, my brother Jing, my good husband."
