Yun Muye chuckled, "Actually, I can't sleep either. I'm so excited when I think about tomorrow's wedding."
Gu Zhinian wrapped his fingers around the telephone cord and placed his hand on his chin.
"Me too, it always feels so unreal."
Yun Muye said softly:
"Zhi Nian, go to bed early. I'll pick you and Xiao Tangyuan up early tomorrow morning. Wait for me."
"Okay, go to bed early too. I don't want to see you pick me up with two panda eyes tomorrow."
"good."
At five in the morning, Gu Zhinian was soundly asleep when he was woken up by his family and friends.
"Niannian, hurry up and get up. The makeup artist is here. Hurry up and get dressed and put on makeup."
As soon as Gu Zhinian opened her eyes, her mother pulled her out of bed. Han Li, Wang Li, and Sun Qiuxia were also there. Han Li smiled and said,
"Bride, get up quickly, the groom is coming soon!"
Gu Zhinian quickly got up, washed his face and brushed his teeth. Old Madam Gu brought him a bowl of sweet rice dumplings, "Niannian, eat this bowl of rice dumplings, and you will be reunited in the future."
"Thank you, grandma." Gu Zhinian took the bowl and ate all the dumplings.
"Where's Xiao Tangyuan? Is he up yet?"
Mother Gu adjusted her cheongsam and said, "The little guy was very excited last night and slept late. He hasn't gotten up yet. You don't have to worry about him today. I'll take care of him. When Muye comes, just take little Tangyuan away."
"Um."
The makeup artist came in with a box and put on her makeup. Gu Zhinian asked for a lighter makeup. Old Mrs. Gu personally did her hair. Old Mrs. Gu took a comb and combed her long, smooth hair.
"Combing your hair from beginning to end will keep the couple in love until old age."
"Comb your hair twice to the end, and treat each other with respect until a hundred years."
"Comb your hair three times to the end, and you will have both sons and daughters, and you will be happy forever."
"Comb your hair four times to the end, and you will be rich and prosperous without worries."
"Combing your hair five times to the end brings you many children, happiness and a long life."
"Comb your hair six times to the end, and you will be free from illness, disaster and trouble."
"Combing seven times to the end, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law live in harmony and happiness fills the house."
"Comb your hair to the end, and your future will be bright and prosperous."
"Comb your hair nine times till the end, and wealth will flow into your home."
"Comb your hair ten times to the end, and your family will be happy and healthy."
After reading the blessing, Mrs. Gu personally tied up her granddaughter's hair and put on a phoenix hairpin. Looking at her beautiful granddaughter, Mrs. Gu's nose was sore.
"My poor granddaughter left me when she was young and I was unable to raise you. Now that we've just met, I'm sending you off to marry. Grandma hopes that you will be happy and healthy in the future, and live a good life with my grandson-in-law."
Gu Zhinian's eyes were red as he held Old Lady Gu's hand.
"Grandma, I will. Don't be sad. Makino and I will be filial to you in the future."
"Good, good, my granddaughter is so pretty."
Old Mrs. Gu wiped her tears, took the red veil and put it on her head herself. Wearing the red cheongsam that her mother had sewn herself, Gu Zhinian sat in the house nervously waiting for Yun Muye to come and pick her up.
Han Li was extremely envious and gently stroked her cheongsam with her fingers.
"What a beautiful cheongsam! If someone gives me a beautiful wedding dress, I will hold a wedding with him without hesitation."
Gu Zhinian smiled faintly under the red veil.
"Let Zhou Zhichuan buy it for you!"
"Him?" Han Li shook her head. "Let's just forget it!"
There were firecrackers outside the door and someone shouted,
"The groom is here! The groom is here to pick up the bride!"
Yun Muye, dressed in a neat military uniform, walked into the palace gate surrounded by his childhood friends. Old Man Gu and Gu's father were sitting in the main hall, waiting for their son-in-law to arrive.
Gu Juan ran to Gu Zhinian's room, "Niannian, I'll carry you out in a while, are you ready?"
"Okay." Gu Zhinian's voice trembled and he clenched his fingers nervously.
Outside the door, little Tangyuan got up hurriedly and blocked his father from entering. Last night, his uncle taught him that as long as he blocked his father from taking his mother away, he would take him to the zoo and have fried chicken and drink Coke.
"Don't come in! You are not allowed to take my mother away."
Everyone around was laughing like crazy. I was going to pick up the bride, but my own son was blocking the way.
Yun Muye offered him a red envelope to bribe him, but Xiao Tangyuan turned his head away without even looking at him. Yun Muye squatted down and looked him in the eye.
"Little Tangyuan, Daddy is here to take you and Mommy home. Don't you want to go with Daddy?"
"No, I want to go with my uncle!" Little Tangyuan opened his arms and short legs.
"You are not allowed to enter!"
Yun Muye instantly understood that Gu Juan was teasing him, and that it was Gu Juan who taught Xiao Tangyuan to behave like this.
"Son, what good did your uncle promise you? Daddy will give you double, and you let Daddy in."
Little Tangyuan firmly supported his uncle. "My uncle didn't teach me anything. He didn't say he would take me to the zoo, nor did he say he would take me to eat fried chicken and Coke!"
Yun Muye laughed out loud and rubbed his son's hair lovingly.
"Okay, tomorrow Daddy will take you to the zoo and have fried chicken and Coke, okay?"
Little Tangyuan hesitated, "You lied to me! You didn't let me drink Coke or eat fried chicken."
"Dad never breaks his promise to you. If I say I'll take you there, I'll take you there. Let's make a pinky promise."
Yun Muye stretched out his little finger, and Xiao Tangyuan put his hand on it.
"Dad, don't regret it!"
"No regrets!"
Yun Muye held little Tangyuan in his arms and went into the house to look for Gu Zhinian. Little Tangyuan stretched out his two chubby hands.
"Where's the red envelope? I want it."
"Didn't you say no?"
Little Tangyuan said:
"I want it! I want a red envelope! Daddy, if you don't give me a red envelope, you are not allowed to take Mom away!"
Yun Muye gritted his teeth and said, "You little bastard, you know how to threaten me."
"Okay, I'll give you a red envelope!"
Little Tangyuan grinned happily while holding the big red envelope. Gu Juan saw the father and son coming from afar and knew that little Tangyuan had been instigated to rebel.
Yun Muye first went to the hall to meet Mr. Gu and his father. When he passed by Gu Juan, he put little Tangyuan in his arms. Little Tangyuan waved the big red envelope excitedly.
"Uncle, this is the big red envelope my father gave me."
"You little bastard, I bought you off with a big red envelope!"
Little Tangyuan didn't know what bribery meant, and he was happily holding the red envelope with a smile on his face.
The hall was full of people. Mr. Gu and Yun Muye were giving some instructions.
"Muye, I only have this precious granddaughter, and I leave her to you. From now on, you must treat her well."
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will."
Father Gu also said with emotion: "My daughter has not been with me since she was a child. She must have suffered a lot. You must love her more and tolerate her in the future."
Yun Muye stood up straight and swore:
"Yes, I will, Dad, Grandpa, don't worry, I will treat her well all my life."
