When Lin Yuwei was helped out by Wu Qiaoqiao, Liu Mingxin quickly stepped forward to take over. After all, her sister-in-law was so heavily pregnant, and she was genuinely a little worried. Actually, while Wu Qiaoqiao said she was helping her out, she only gave her a slight boost. With Lin Yuwei's current agility, she didn't need her support at all.
At this moment, Feng Minghao had already changed his clothes and was standing there waiting. He was wearing a red outfit, which made him look even more dashing and imposing. Anyone who saw him would say, "What a handsome young man!"
The newlyweds were helped into the main room by everyone, each holding a red string. After all, if Wu Qiaoqiao were to take out another red silk ribbon at this point, it would be impossible to reconcile the situation, so they had to use a red string instead.
Two chairs were placed at the head of the hall, with Liu Mengmeng and Hu Lanhua sitting on them. Hu Lanhua originally disagreed and was going to let Liu Ercheng sit there, but everyone said that since Lin Yuyang's family had no elders, she was the only one who could act as the elder of Lin Yuwei's side of the family.
Liu Mengmeng looked at the couple in front of her. She had been prepared for her eldest son to remain single for life, but now that he had found someone to spend his life with, Liu Mengmeng felt a huge weight lifted from her heart.
Liu Mengmeng said, "Weiwei, due to the special circumstances, this is all we can do. We can't even let too many people come here for some reasons. I'm really sorry to trouble you."
Liu Mengmeng always felt that she hadn't done enough for Lin Yuwei, the daughter who would accompany her son for life.
"Mom, this is good enough. Who else gets married at this time with such a grand scale and happiness as me?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Mengmeng was so happy that tears streamed down her face. The people standing nearby were also very happy for the newlyweds, but they still urged them to finish the procedures as soon as possible, since they still had to go to Liu Mingfeng's house later.
Because there are guests coming in the evening, a lot of food has been prepared. It's not good to leave Aunt Liu and her husband's wives and daughters to take care of everything. These people also need to get there as soon as possible, and they shouldn't stay here too long.
So the newlyweds stood in front of the hall, and with Liu Ercheng's first bow to heaven and earth, the second bow to their parents, and the couple's mutual bows to each other as they were led into the bridal chamber, the ceremony was completed. Amidst everyone's congratulations and blessings, Lin Yuwei, guided by the red string in her hand, was led by Feng Minghao into their bridal chamber.
Wu Qiaoqiao and Liu Mingxin comforted Liu Mengmeng, who was in agitation. After calming her down, everyone left and went to Liu Mingfeng's house to start preparing the food for the banquet that evening.
Everyone was happily chatting and laughing with Liu Mingfeng as they prepared dinner. There was stewed pheasant soup, roasted roe deer meat, jelly, and other delicious-smelling dishes. Da Bao, Xiao Bao, and the younger members of the Liu family were drooling with envy. Seeing this, people laughed at them and stuffed some food into their mouths, making the children's eyes crinkle with joy.
When Feng Minghao led Lin Yuwei into their bridal chamber and sat her on the bed, the two of them noticed that the bed was covered with dates, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds—fruits symbolizing the wish for many children. They knew this was the greatest effort their family had made.
Feng Minghao looked at the scale with the red rope tied to it, and his expression softened. He picked up the scale beam and lifted the red veil from Lin Yuwei's head.
As the veil was lifted, Lin Yuwei's beautiful face was revealed. After Lin Yuwei's face was revealed, Feng Minghao stared at the woman who had waited for him all his life in the past life and couldn't help but embrace her.
"Wei'er, I have finally fulfilled my promise. I have finally married you. I will stay with you for the rest of my life and never let you live alone again."
Hearing this, Lin Yuwei smiled and nestled into Feng Minghao's arms. She knew the man wouldn't leave her waiting alone any longer. The two of them embraced each other like that, staying in the room for quite some time, until they heard the work bell ring outside, and suddenly realized that they had been there for so long.
Lin Yuwei and Feng Minghao got busy first, tidying up the dried fruits and other items on the kang (a heated brick bed), and then changed their clothes. They planned to put these clothes away and give them to Wu Qiaoqiao later, since it wasn't safe to leave them here. If anyone who disliked them tried to cause trouble, they could be easily caught.
Although Liu Mingfeng planned that the chaos would end sooner after they submitted all the materials, it wasn't time yet, so they should still be careful.
After packing their things and changing their clothes, the two went to Liu Mingfeng's house next door. Before they even saw Liu Mingfeng's house, they smelled a rich fragrance. It was a mixture of several scents, and it smelled wonderful. After Lin Yuchang and her companion went inside, their two uncles' grandsons from the east, west, south, north, and center, along with their younger sister and brother, surrounded them.
A group of little kids, mimicking adults, offered congratulations and other auspicious greetings, begging for wedding candy. Lin Yuwei and Feng Minghao, seeing this, smiled and took out wedding candy and red envelopes from the basket they were carrying. They distributed them to each child, making the little rascals jump for joy.
Before the children could even enjoy their treats for long, their mothers took them away with all sorts of excuses, leaving each of them with only two candies.
After their mothers took all their things away, the little kids all had long faces, but after the adults each stuffed a piece of meat into their mouths, they all beamed and circled around the adults, hoping they would give them a few more pieces of meat.
The adults slapped one of them on the bottom because they were in the way, and then the older ones led the younger ones to run off to play elsewhere.
After the food was prepared, Feng Mingran, Liu Xiaobao, and the others who had been called to the village's winemakers to exchange for rice wine and sweet potato wine returned. Now they were just waiting for all the guests to arrive so they could start eating.
