Before we knew it, Liang Boda's wedding day arrived. He set his wedding date for the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, an auspicious day for marriage. And the heavens were exceptionally kind to him; the sky was clear and the sun was warm, making everyone's smiling faces exceptionally radiant.
To help, Bu Ling and Sang Shen took leave on the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month and helped Liang Boda tidy up the house he was assigned and prepare the things needed for the wedding banquet. They were so busy that they didn't have time to rest.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly. On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, Liang Boda, dressed in a brand-new winter military uniform, drove his jeep, adorned with large red flowers, and sped towards the county town.
Lin Shen's family is from Harbin, so before the wedding, they moved into Sang Shen's house as their new home. This time, when they went to fetch the bride, they naturally went to the county town.
Buyi and several of his comrades also went to fetch the bride, while Buling, as the younger sister, stayed in the compound to help greet the guests.
Two hours later, the wedding party returned. Liang Boda and Lin Shen were both dressed in military green, with only a red flower tied to their chests. Surrounded by the crowd, they entered the army canteen hand in hand.
Then, everyone took their seats, leaving only Liang Boda and his wife standing. Led by Deputy Division Commander Cui, they recited quotations and took their vows, thus completing the wedding ceremony.
Besides Bu Lingsangshen and Lin Shen's family, the rest of the guests at the couple's wedding were soldiers. Soldiers are known for their efficiency, and even the banquet was conducted efficiently.
Just as Buling and Sangs had taken a few bites, the soldiers neatly put down their bowls and chopsticks. Buling looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the bowls and plates on the table were as clean as new.
Bling: ...
Mulberry: ...
The two looked at the table where they were sitting. Everyone at the table was familiar, at least to Bu Ling. Perhaps to accommodate Bu Ling and the other person, there was still more than half of the food left on the table.
Buling and Sangshen exchanged a glance and, in order not to fall behind, tacitly sped up their food-eating pace, which resulted in both of them having stomach aches after the meal!
After the banquet, the soldiers had other tasks to complete, so they were dismissed on the spot, leaving only Bu Lingbu Yi and a few others, as well as Lin Shen's family.
However, after the banquet ended, Lin Shen's family members were about to leave. Liang Boda took Lin Shen's hand and stepped forward, solemnly saying, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I will definitely protect Xiao Lu'er. I swear on my military uniform!"
Mr. Lin gave Liang Boda a deep look, nodded, and said nothing. Instead, Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "Liang, you and Xiaolu live a good life together. After the baby is born, I will come and help you take care of it."
The last sentence made the two newlyweds blush and lower their heads in embarrassment.
Seeing this, Lin's mother smiled even more, gave a few more instructions, and then left with Lin's father. Bu Yi also left; he had to be the driver today to take the elderly couple to the train station.
Watching Bu Yi and the other two disappear into the cafeteria, Bu Ling turned her gaze back to Liang Boda and Lin, her smile bright: "Brother Liang, Sister Lin, I've prepared a wedding gift for you!"
As Bu Ling was speaking, Sang Shen took a box out of her bag at the opportune moment, winked, and handed it to Liang Boda.
Liang Boda took it with a puzzled look, then handed it to Lin Shen beside him, asking curiously, "What is this? It's so mysterious?"
Lin Shen, who was standing next to her, was also very curious. She blinked and asked with a smile, "Sister Buling, can I open this and take a look?"
Bu Ling smiled mischievously: "Of course! Sister Lin, please feel free to do as you please."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shen no longer hesitated and opened the box in her hand. The moment she opened it, her smile froze on her face.
Seeing her like this, Liang Boda looked over curiously, peeked inside, and was also somewhat dumbfounded. However, he quickly recovered, glared fiercely at Bu Ling and the other person, then quickly closed the box and took it from Lin Shen's hand.
"Little sister, are you serious?" He waved the box in his hand.
Buling nodded without hesitation: "Of course, Brother Liang, don't underestimate this thing. I spent a lot of money to get it, it wasn't easy to come by. You and Sister Lin should make good use of it!"
Liang Boda's smile faltered, and he said through gritted teeth, "You think I need this?"
Bu Ling gave him a strange look: "What are you thinking? I was going to tell you to use it to make medicinal wine. This stuff is very nourishing. You guys have suffered so many injuries on missions before, you should nourish yourselves properly, right?" She said seriously, while giving Liang Boda a reproachful look.
Liang Boda's gritted teeth froze on his face, while Lin Shen beside him chuckled, took the box from Liang Boda's hand, and winked at Bu Ling: "Then thank you, Bu Ling, little sister~"
"Sister Lin, you're too kind!" Bu Ling smiled, revealing her dimples, looking very well-behaved and sweet.
Standing next to Bu Ling, Sang Shen glanced at Liang Boda with pity. Serves him right! He got what he deserved for his foul mouth!
However, what Lingling said was true; this thing was really hard to get her hands on. Luckily, Xie Dong had many connections and was able to find it, which benefited Liang Boda.
Liang Boda snapped out of his daze and glared at Bu Ling, both amused and exasperated. "Little sister, do you know how good you are to me?"
Buling smiled innocently at him: "Of course I know, my brother is so happy!"
Liang Boda angrily ruffled her hair: "You just wait!"
Buling smiled and wasn't flustered at all.
After giving the first gift and seeing Liang Boda's embarrassed look, Bu Ling took out the second gift, a scarf made of red fox fur. "Sister Lin, this is a wedding gift for you. Congratulations! From now on, I'll have to call you sister-in-law."
Lin Shen looked at the fiery red fox fur, her affection for it undisguised, but she first looked at Liang Boda.
Liang Boda nodded to indicate that she should accept it, and Lin Shen then took the scarf from Bu Ling's hand: "Thank you, Bu Ling."
Bu Ling smiled, her eyes crinkling: "Sister Lin, no, sister-in-law?"
Lin Shen, being a lively person, readily nodded: "Yes, your sister-in-law loves you!"
Bling gently nudged her: "You're so annoying~ There are other people around~"
Lin Shen smiled and grabbed Bu Ling's hand: "Shall we talk again when we get home?" He then casually touched Bu Ling's face.
Bling took her arm and said, "Okay!"
The two women, aunt and sister-in-law, chatted and laughed as they walked out of the canteen and headed towards the family compound, leaving Liang Boda and Sang Shen, two men, looking at each other in bewilderment.
Finally, Sangshen was the first to look away: "Let's go too."
Liang Boda had no choice but to follow.
Ahead, Bu Ling and Lin Shen, one with intention and the other with intention, got along very harmoniously, walking hand in hand back to Liang Boda's house in the family compound.
Liang Boda's house is right across from Bu Yi's house, very close. Originally, he wasn't assigned to this building, but in order to be Bu Yi's neighbor, he managed to persuade Bu Yi's neighbor across the hall to let him change houses.
Bu Ling and Lin Shen went upstairs and stopped at their doorstep. "Sister-in-law, I wish you a long and happy marriage!"
Lin Shen smiled and thanked him, exchanged a few more jokes, and then the two went their separate ways.
