The car came to a steady stop in front of the small building. Xue Ying, disregarding her status as the new mother-in-law, personally ran out to greet Ye Chen'er. Yan Daqiang could only follow behind, otherwise people would misunderstand. When Ye Chen'er saw that her parents-in-law had come out, she quickly got out of the car.
Yan Aidang asked Ye Chen'er to stand at the door for a while. Ye Chen'er didn't understand at first, but when she saw the neighbors rushing over, she realized that she was a new bride and needed to be recognized by the neighbors.
Today is a joyous occasion at the Major General's family's home, and everyone wants to share in the happiness. Seeing the beautiful and elegant bride, as fresh as an orchid, and the handsome and dashing groom with a beaming face, everyone couldn't help but nod in approval. Yan Aidang really has good taste; this girl is far better than those two girls from the Hu family.
No wonder Hu Lijing smashed someone's dowry; she must have been frantic. It's understandable, though. I wouldn't marry Hu Lijing either; she's so scheming and hypocritical. I'd never know when I'd die at her hands.
Yan Aidang's close friends, without anyone noticing, were all carrying baskets prepared by Cuihua and Xuemei, filled with candies and pastries. While distributing them to the neighbors and children, they also secretly ate quite a few themselves. Aidang's aunt was truly skilled; the pastries she made were absolutely delicious.
Seeing that the neighbors were all attracted by the candy and pastries, Yan Daqiang hurriedly urged the newlyweds to come in. After everyone entered, Xue Ying sat down on the sofa with satisfaction, and Yan Daqiang sat down next to her without thinking.
Yan Aidang led Ye Chen'er to bow to their parents, then spread out their hands: "Give me the red envelopes."
Yan Daqiang was furious. This brat, why is he so impatient? I wonder if he was like this at Ye Chen'er's house today. If he was, then he's ruthless. But that's impossible. If he dares to do that, I'll call him Dad.
Xue Ying quickly took out two thick red envelopes and handed them to Ye Chen'er: "Chen'er, you can change your address now."
Ye Chen'er's face flushed red: "I am very lucky to be able to marry Yan Aidang and enter the Yan family. Mom and Dad, let me take care of you in the future."
Xue Ying smiled happily. One of her two sons had finally gotten married, and there should be hope for the other one too.
Cuihua and Xuemei came out carrying a plate with two bowls on it. The bowls contained red date and lotus seed sweet soup, symbolizing a sweet and happy life and the hope for many children. "You two each have a bowl, and you must finish it all. No leftovers allowed."
"Thank you, Auntie."
"Thank you, Auntie."
The two thanked Cuihua in unison, while secretly thinking to themselves, "Thank goodness our aunt was here, otherwise this bowl of red date and lotus seed soup might have turned salty."
After watching them finish the sweet soup, their best friends shouted in unison, "The ceremony is complete, now they're in the bridal chamber!"
Xuemei quickly stepped forward and took the bowls from their hands. The two smiled gratefully at Xuemei, then held hands and went upstairs to their new house.
This was Ye Chen'er's first time entering her new room. The entire set of the latest blue and white combination furniture was stylish and beautiful. The crystal chandelier on the ceiling was unique, and the glass pendant lamp on the bedside table was exquisite and luxurious. There were eight colorful silk quilts folded on the bed, with the bright red quilt with the hundred children pattern on top.
"Chen'er, do you like it?" Yan Aidang asked Ye Chen'er somewhat nervously. After all, the furniture in the courtyard was all mahogany, simple and elegant, much more valuable than the modular furniture in the new house.
Ye Chen'er nodded. Of course she liked it. Rosewood furniture was valuable, but it looked old-fashioned and didn't have the festive feel of a wedding. This set of furniture looked fashionable and novel, and nowadays young people like to choose this kind of furniture for their weddings.
"Chen'er, take a rest first. We're going to the state-run canteen for lunch later. Today you'll meet our maternal grandfather. His name is Xue Honggen. He holds the rank of lieutenant general and is in the senior military region." Seeing Ye Chen'er nod, Yan Aidang was relieved and introduced his maternal grandfather to him.
"Your grandfather is so amazing! I thought your major general father was already very impressive." Ye Chen'er was startled.
"My maternal grandfather? My father?" Yan Aidang glanced at Ye Chen'er, as if to say, "Dare to say it again?"
“Our grandfather, our father, is that right now?” Ye Chen’er stuck out her little tongue, but before she could retract it, someone sucked it in. A current started flowing from her tongue and spread throughout her body. Ye Chen’er, numb with pleasure, instantly lost the ability to think.
It seemed like, probably, quite a long time had passed, and both of them were a little out of breath. Yan Aidang reluctantly let go of Ye Chen'er, panting softly, and said, "Let's continue tonight."
Ye Chen'er blushed, not daring to look at Yan Aidang, and could only lower her eyes. Unexpectedly, she saw where Yan Aidang was holding the small parasol, and quickly closed her eyes, her face turning even more flushed.
Xue Ying called out to them from downstairs: "Aidang, Chen'er, we're about to leave, come down quickly."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen'er felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly stood up. Yan Aidang was a little embarrassed, took a deep breath to calm himself down, and finally managed to calm his little brother down before taking Ye Chen'er's hand and going downstairs.
When Yan Daqiang saw Ye Chen'er's face turn blood red, he glanced at Yan Aidang with a mocking look. "Old man, you're getting impatient, aren't you?" Yan Aidang's thick skin finally changed color. He gave Yan Daqiang a resentful look. "A well-fed man doesn't know the hunger of a starving man."
The wedding car started again, heading towards Limin Restaurant, the best restaurant in Beijing. Xue Ying had booked the entire Limin Restaurant today. Since each person would have two dishes and each table could seat eight people, they would serve sixteen dishes. The restaurant could fit twenty tables, so all twenty tables would have to serve the exact same dishes.
The head chef was overjoyed. Making twenty bowls of one dish was so convenient! Moreover, the guests today were all high-class people, people he rarely saw. He was going to be in for a treat.
The head chef takes today's wedding banquet very seriously, so he held an emergency meeting early this morning to carefully assign tasks for the day. No one can make a mistake, or their entire bonus for the year will be deducted.
The kitchen was bustling with activity, and the waiters were busy going in and out. If you looked closely, you could see that the young and beautiful waitresses were all dressed up. It would be truly joyous to meet a handsome man on such a festive day.
When the wedding car was still 500 meters away from the Limin Hotel, Yan Ai's close friends quickly lit firecrackers. It seems that Yan Ai has bought up all the firecrackers in Beijing today. How can there be so many firecrackers?
Hearing the sound of firecrackers, everyone knew that the bride and groom had arrived. Everyone stood up and craned their necks to look at the entrance. A man in a Tang suit got out of the black wedding car. After getting out of the car, the man bent down and helped the bride out.
