Lingyin's parents almost didn't recognize their daughter.
I never knew that people could look this good with makeup on.
Da Yong's wedding procession arrived, accompanied by a troop of soldiers beating drums and gongs, with firecrackers going off all the way.
The man in red, riding a tall horse, was majestic and handsome, exuding a pure and upright aura, with tender and affectionate eyes that made the young women and wives in the village blush.
Lingyin, her head covered by a red veil, was helped out of the room. Da Yong's gaze was intense, as if he could see through the red veil to her face.
The couple knelt before the ancestral hall and offered tea to the woman's parents and clan elders.
Qiu held Lingyin's hand, giving her many earnest instructions, and was extremely reluctant to part with her.
Ling Lao Er then exchanged pleasantries and gave instructions to Da Yong, who listened attentively and nodded, his expression respectful and earnest.
The elders and seniors from various ethnic groups saw this and grew to like him even more. He was already a young leader, and he had such a natural presence, yet he had no airs at all.
Yin Yatou is truly blessed to have met someone like this.
When the time was right, Lingyin was helped into the bridal sedan chair and left home amidst the deafening sound of firecrackers.
She glanced back and, through the hazy red light, saw Ling Lao Er and Qiu Shi standing by the door. Her eyes welled up with tears.
Although the Qiao family was open-minded and she could come back anytime she wanted, this scene of parting still made her feel reluctant to leave.
From now on, she will not only be the daughter of the Ling family, but also Da Yong's wife, the daughter-in-law of the Qiao family, and the mother of their child.
She is embarking on a new chapter in her life; the future holds both challenges and greater happiness.
She would never betray the kindness of her parents.
The bridal sedan chair was prepared by the Qiao family, adorned with tassels tied with auspicious knots and decorated with gold-plated double happiness characters.
The villagers had never seen such a beautiful bridal sedan chair before, and they praised it highly, saying that Ling's daughter was going to enjoy a life of luxury.
The number of people who came today was far greater than the Qiao family had imagined.
Not only from this village, but also from the campsite and from nearby villages.
Not only was there barely any room to step inside the yard, but a large number of people had also spread out outside the yard.
"Oh dear, how can we possibly entertain everyone? We don't have enough people or enough food," Grandma Qiao said, looking very distressed.
While a large number of people is certainly a joyous occasion, this is simply too many.
Then he called on Qiao Laoda and Qiao Laoer to go buy ingredients.
“Aunt Qiao, no need for that. We’re from another village. We’re not here for the banquet, just to join in the fun,” said one of the villagers.
"Yes, we're just here to liven things up; we won't cause you any trouble."
Everyone agreed.
"We didn't bring any gifts, we just came to take a look, and we'll leave after the bride and groom have completed their wedding ceremony."
“But how can we, as the hosts, feel at ease if we don’t entertain you when you come?” Old Man Qiao said.
Forget about gifts; the Qiao family doesn't care about that. Everyone's here to celebrate, so they should eat their fill before leaving.
"Uncle Qiao, even if you offer us food, we won't eat it. We just want to see the young couple get married and see your new house."
"If you really feel bad about it, just have a couple of wedding candies and a couple of sips of tea, and we'll be satisfied."
Seeing everyone's sincerity, and realizing that they really couldn't entertain them all, the Qiao family elders quickly prepared tea and brought out bags of sugar to distribute.
However, quite a few of these people from other villages still went to give gifts.
It's nothing, I just like Lian'er, and I feel that she can bring good fortune to everyone.
She is not only a blessing to Datian Village, but also a blessing to all villages.
As the gift list grew longer and longer, the Qiao family members' eyes welled up with tears.
The villagers are kind, simple, and sincere; they warm my heart.
"The bride has arrived!" someone shouted excitedly as they looked at the intersection.
