The bride couldn't believe it.
They are not here to grab red envelopes or share the good luck, they are clearly here to rob people!
In the end, she was so angry that she almost lost control of her temper and started cursing.
Fortunately, the people in the back also began to complain in dissatisfaction, saying that Aunt Tong had snatched so much by herself, which was unfair.
Then the groom's wife saw that distributing red envelopes had delayed some time, and was afraid that they would not be able to get to the hotel in the city on time, so he could only shout at those who were grabbing the red envelopes to disperse first.
Aunt Tong saw this and felt it was not appropriate to take advantage of the situation any longer. Moreover, she had just grabbed three handfuls of red envelopes, and her pocket was almost full of them.
She had to find a safe place to count how much money she had stolen.
Afterwards the wedding continued.
Although the bride was a little unhappy when she encountered Aunt Tong snatching the red envelope when getting off the car, she did not want to settle the score with Aunt Tong for fear of delaying the auspicious time, and just let the day go.
After Aunt Tong followed the bride and her family into the house, she quickly found a place to count the red envelopes she had snatched.
You don’t know until you count, and you’ll be surprised when you do.
She actually grabbed more than a thousand red envelopes!
She opened a red envelope and took a look. Although it was a small red envelope, it contained two yuan.
By this calculation, this pile of red envelopes she received was worth two or three hundred thousand, which was enough to make up for all the money she had spent on gifts today!
Aunt Tong smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.
Especially when she thought about the big red envelope she saw in the bridesmaid's bag just now, her heart was burning with joy.
There will be several red envelopes distributed during the ceremony at the hotel, and she wants to grab some!
Someone was passing by and couldn't help but chirp when he saw Aunt Tong grabbing so many red envelopes.
"She's really amazing! She blocked the way and snatched all the red envelopes. How is she any different from a bandit? I've never seen anyone so shameless!"
The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for Aunt Tong to hear.
She turned around and looked over there, and saw several people pointing at her.
Those people should be relatives of the Xi family. Aunt Tong had not seen them very often, but this did not prevent her from remembering that it was these people who were talking to her most enthusiastically just now.
They were definitely jealous of her because they didn't get many red envelopes, so they were deliberately being sarcastic to her!
Besides, she didn't steal their red envelopes, so what right do they have to criticize her!
Aunt Tong ignored that group of people at all.
After the bride and groom finished the ceremony in the bridal chamber, they boarded the bus that had been booked in advance by their parents and went directly to the hotel to have the formal dinner.
Aunt Tong and others arrived at the hotel at around 11:30, half an hour before the dinner started at 12 o'clock.
This half hour is the time for the bride and groom to change clothes and get ready.
Aunt Tong was getting a little bored waiting, so she started chatting with the people at the same table.
As the group of people were chatting, they talked about how grand, lively and festive today was.
When I was in the village before, including the relatives and fellow villagers from the man’s side, there were no more than twenty tables of people in total.
Aunt Tong and the others thought that there would be only about twenty tables at the girl's house.
But when we arrived at the hotel, we found that this was the largest hall in the hotel, and there were at least sixty banquet tables inside!
In the past, when they attended a banquet, having thirty or forty tables was considered a big deal, and there were a lot of people.
There are at least sixty tables now!
This was the first time Aunt Tong had seen a banquet with so many guests.
"With so many people coming to congratulate them, it seems like the second kid and his wife are going to have a hard time living in the future."
The person at the same table laughed and joked.
Aunt Tong was so envious when she saw this.
They have a saying here, that is, the more lively the wedding is and the more people come to attend, the happier it is!
Because those people are here to add to the joy, and what they add is happiness.
With so much joy, how can the wedding couple not be happy?
Aunt Tong's family hasn't had a proper wedding in several months.
Ever since my husband passed away a few months ago, this home has always felt like something is missing. It has become much quieter and none of the family members have had many good times.
Look at other families in the village. Some are making money, some are having new children, and they are much better off than my family.
Aunt Tong thought about it and felt that their family might be almost happy.
I happen to be attending a wedding today, and with so many people blessing the newlyweds, I might as well take this opportunity to share in the good fortune and dispel the bad luck on me!
She didn't know whether "getting some good luck" would work, but she would definitely feel better after trying it.
However, even if the people present today gave blessings, they would only bless the newlyweds, not her.
All she could get was a little bit of the joy from the newlyweds.
This is definitely not enough, right?
So Aunt Tong quietly made a plan to ensure that she would definitely get the "first good luck"!
Time soon came to around eleven or so, and the emcee came on stage and began to speak.
The staff's spotlights also gathered at the main hall door.
The door is closed at the moment and you can't see what's happening outside.
But everyone knew that the people standing outside the door were the bride and her parents.
When the emcee says "Please welcome the beautiful bride", the door will open, and the spotlight will fall on the bride, who will walk towards the stage under the gaze and blessings of all the guests.
Just as the emcee said "Please welcome the bride", thunderous applause broke out in the hall.
Almost everyone looked towards the gate with a smile on their face and blessings in their eyes.
The spotlight was also ready at the same time, shining accurately at the door.
The door of the hall slowly opened, and everyone was looking forward to the beautiful bride appearing.
But in the next second, what no one expected was that just before the bride appeared, a stranger appeared at the door.
Under the spotlight, it turned out to be an ordinary old lady in her sixties!
At that moment, the entire hall fell silent, and then a huge discussion broke out.
No one expected such a scene to happen.
The person who appeared at the door was naturally Aunt Tong.
She took advantage of the fact that no one near the gate was paying attention, seized the opportunity and ran to the gate, and appeared precisely when the gate opened, thus stealing the bride's "first happiness".
