Upon hearing the order, a group of girls immediately sprang into action, rushing to the doorway and pushing each other to hold it shut.
Outside, the groom, Su Qiang, barged in with a few young men.
Since there was no one on the groom's side, Shang Ziming offered up his two nephews, Shang Hanwen and Shang Ganwen, along with Qin Xuan from the Qin family and Hua Cunming from the Hua family, making it quite lively.
"Open the door quickly, the groom is here to pick up the bride!" Qin Xuan took the lead, banging on the door loudly, which made the girl inside scream.
"It's not that easy to get in. The groom has to answer some questions. If we're satisfied with his answers, we'll open the door. If we're not satisfied, you can go back to where you came from..." Zhang Lan shouted out her prepared remarks.
There was an immediate response from outside: "Okay, go ahead and ask."
"Uncle, keep it up!" Shang Hanwen encouraged Su Qiang.
Zhang Lan excitedly pulled out a piece of paper and said loudly, "First rule: From now on, whose decision is made in all matters, big or small, at home?"
Su Qiang immediately replied, "I'll do whatever Yanzi says."
As soon as Su Qiang finished speaking, a burst of laughter erupted both inside and outside the door.
"Secondly, who does the housework?"
"Me." The answer was firm and resolute.
"Thirdly, who should manage and allocate the family's savings?"
"Swallow." No doubt about it.
"Fourth question: Will you cherish your bride for the rest of your life? If not, what will you do?"
"I swear on this military uniform that I will cherish Comrade Huang Feiyan for the rest of my life, walk hand in hand with her, and spend the rest of my life with her."
"Okay! Bride, did you hear that? Such a good man, will you marry him? Shall we go?"
The women in the room were all very excited, feeling that Huang Feiyan had found the right person. They looked at her eagerly, waiting for her to speak.
"Open!" Huang Feiyan's face flushed red with joy.
"Sisters, open the door..." At Zhang Lan's command, several girls immediately stood on both sides and opened the door.
"Time to pick up the bride..."
Su Qiang was ushered into the room, and as soon as he entered, his gaze was immediately drawn to the girl sitting on the bed.
Huang Feiyan looked at him, her eyes full of allure and affection.
Su Qiang slowly approached her, stood in front of her, and extended his hand to her. "Yanzi, I've come to take you home."
Huang Feiyan lowered her head shyly and placed her hand on his large hand.
Su Qiang pulled her to her feet, and the two walked hand in hand.
Su Xiao stood in the corner, watching the two figures from behind, and many thoughts came to mind.
Throughout this journey, Huang Feiyan has been her closest friend and the one who has been with her the longest, while Su Qiang is the brother who loves her the most. Both of them are very important to her. Now that they are together, it is wonderful. I only wish that they can understand each other, be free from illness and disaster, and grow old together.
"What are you thinking about now?"
A warm breath brushed against her ear, seeping into her skin, making her shiver involuntarily and prompting her to reach out and rub her ear.
"What are you doing? Don't get so close to talk to me." Su Xiao gave him a reproachful sidelong glance.
Shang Ziming said, feeling very aggrieved, "I've called you several times, but you haven't answered me. How can I wake you up if I don't get close to you?"
Su Xiao blinked her innocent big eyes. "Really? Then hurry up and leave, everyone's gone."
As she spoke, she glared at him reproachfully, then scurried out of the room, shouting, "Wait for me! I'm here too..."
Almost everyone in the courtyard had left, so she hurriedly chased after them.
Shang Ziming stared blankly at the departing figure, which was jumping and skipping away, and finally smiled helplessly.
What can he do with such a lively, energetic, and unruly girlfriend? He can only spoil her.
Su Qiang led Huang Feiyan into the wedding car that Shang Ziming had borrowed. The car started moving very slowly.
Several bicycles adorned with large red flowers followed behind the car, ringing their bells along the way, creating a lively and festive atmosphere. Behind them came the wedding party of relatives and friends, all heading towards their new home.
Fortunately, the distance wasn't far, and everyone was used to walking like that. Amidst chatting and laughing, we didn't feel tired at all; on the contrary, we were quite excited.
Especially those girls, they were all beautiful and confident today, walking with a swagger, becoming a beautiful sight along the way and attracting a lot of attention.
After Su Xiao and everyone else in her family had left, she locked the gate and was about to turn around and catch up with the group.
A bicycle adorned with red flowers stopped beside her. It was Shang Ziming, his long legs supporting him firmly on the ground. "Get on," he said.
Su Xiao didn't hesitate and jumped up, pulling on his coat.
The back seats were thoughtfully lined with cotton cloth, making them quite comfortable.
"Let's go, hurry up and catch up, charge..." Su Xiao shook his clothes, as if she wanted to gallop away on horseback.
"Have you got it right?" Shang Ziming asked calmly.
Su Xiao tugged at his clothes again, very confidently, "It's done."
"Okay, go..." How could Shang Ziming let her down? He pushed off with his foot, and the car shot off like an arrow.
"Ah..." The sudden sprint almost threw Su Xiao away. Fortunately, she was holding onto his clothes. However, at such a fast speed, holding onto his clothes could not guarantee her safety. She didn't have time to think. Her hands were already tightly wrapped around his waist, and her whole body was pressed against his back.
Feeling the softness on his back, Shang Ziming's lips curled up slightly, and he pushed off the ground with even more effort.
The car arrived at the new house quickly. The house was bustling with activity. As the newlyweds stepped out of the car, the crowd cheered and escorted them to the main room.
Inside the main room, a portrait of a great man hung on the wall, and the Gu family patriarch and the Qin family patriarch served as witnesses.
The two men swore an oath before the portrait of the great man, promising to support each other and work together to build a better future, whether in poverty or wealth, in health or sickness.
"Alright, the ceremony is complete."
The crowd cheered, and Su Qiang held Huang Feiyan's hand tightly. The two looked at each other and smiled.
The Su family's banquet this time was also very lavish. Four tables were set up in the courtyard and house, and a chef from a restaurant was invited to cook. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, and everyone praised it highly.
Su Qiang was so happy today that his mouth was wide open the whole time, stretching all the way to his ears.
He never imagined that today's wedding would be so lively and grand, with the support of relatives and friends, which moved him deeply.
Raising his glass, he toasted Mr. Qin and Mr. Gu, saying, "Thank you both for being my witnesses. Thank you for attending my wedding."
"Hey, nephew, you're being too polite. Hehe..."
The two elderly people exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with satisfaction. This child has a good heart; their trip was worthwhile.
"I also want to give a special salute to my sister, Xiaoxiao, my brother, and Yanzi. Thank you." Su Qiang looked at Su Xiao, his eyes glistening with tiny, star-like tears.
"Brother, sister-in-law, best wishes to you both." Su Xiao raised her glass in a toast.
