The people picked up in these cars were all relatives from Honghe Township and Xiahe Village.
It was Ji Xingguo's first time meeting Lei Tingjun's relatives from his hometown, so he straightened his clothes and warmly greeted them.
Uncle Li and Aunt Li, along with their entire family and villagers, got out of the car and were stunned by the luxurious and grand wedding venue setup.
I've never seen such a lavish and luxurious place, not even on TV. It's like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden; for a moment, I didn't know where to step.
Just then, Ji Wanmei, who was all dressed up, came down from the hotel with Lei Tingjun and their bridal party to greet the guests.
The driver jumped out and said to Ji Xingguo, "Director Ji, these are all relatives from Brother Lei's hometown. He specifically asked me to go back and pick them up."
Ji Xingguo stepped forward warmly and shook Li Erbo's calloused hands, which were covered with the marks of years of hard work: "Welcome, welcome. I am Meimei's father. You must be tired from your journey. What is your name, brother?"
As soon as Lei Tingjun came down, he saw that Uncle Li and the others had arrived. He quickly stepped forward and said to Ji Xingguo, "Dad, this is Uncle Li from my hometown, that's Aunt Li, and their son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. These are all my neighbors and fellow villagers from my hometown. They all took care of our family when we were young."
Ji Xingguo was taken aback when Lei Tingjun called him "Dad," and he was a little stunned and couldn't react for a moment.
After all, the wedding hadn't even started yet, and there hadn't been any toasts or formal address changes, but Lei Tingjun was already calling out to them.
However, Ji Xingguo was stunned, but his lips still curled into a wide grin. He said, "Good, good, good. Those who come must be relatives of Lei Tingjun, and also our guests. Please come in and have a seat."
A group of men were exchanging pleasantries when Li Erbo's daughter-in-law came over with her child and said to Ji Wanmei, "Wanmei, you look so beautiful today. Congratulations! May you have a long and happy marriage."
He then took out a love knot he had made himself and gave it to her.
Ji Wanmei smiled and took the love knot, patted the two babies' heads, and gave them a handful of wedding candy.
"This time, your family can stay in Pingdong for a few more days and take the two children to see the sights. Don't worry, Lei Tingjun and I have made all the arrangements."
The wedding banquet and ceremony were about to begin around 11 o'clock.
Most of the guests who were supposed to come have arrived.
Ji Wanmei checked the time, and Luo Chunyan came over to remind them that they could go upstairs to the banquet hall to make preparations.
The banquet officially began at 11:30.
Seeing Lei Tingjun still greeting guests, Ji Wanmei went over to him and asked, "Didn't you invite your uncle and his family?"
Lei Tingjun said, "They've been invited. They can come if they want, or not if they don't."
At that moment, several more black luxury cars arrived.
Ji Wanmei and Lei Tingjun both looked up and saw Lu Zhuoxuan helping Grandma Song downstairs.
