The auspicious time had arrived and the hall was full of guests. Yan Fangming and Xiang Nuan were pushed to the front stage by Yu Guangcheng and several other young people.
Deputy Commander Jiang, as the witness, also came to the stage with a smile and stood in front of the right side of the couple.
"Good afternoon, comrades. I am honored to be the witness for the wedding of Comrade Yan Fangming and Comrade Xiang Nuan on this auspicious day.
Fang Ming has been a soldier under my command since he joined the army. Over the past few years, I have watched him grow step by step to his current achievements.
Able to endure hardships, able to fight, thoughtful and loyal! Fang Ming is an excellent young man and an excellent soldier!
Today he is getting married and starting a family. As his old leader and elder, I am sincerely happy for him!"
"good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone started applauding.
Deputy Commander Jiang smiled and pressed his hand and continued, "Although I don't know much about Comrade Xiang Nuan, the fact that you and Comrade Fang Ming have the same fate means that you two share the same revolutionary ideals.
Today they officially become revolutionary partners. I hope they can respect and love each other and spend the rest of their lives together!
I also wish them a happy and loving life together!"
After Deputy Commander Jiang finished speaking, Yan Fangming and Xiang Nuan bowed to him together to express their gratitude.
After Deputy Commander Jiang went down and sat down, the newlyweds, under the guidance of Yu Guangcheng, turned around and bowed to the portrait of the Chairman hanging behind them.
The next step is for the couple to bow to each other and drink the wedding wine.
"Come, come, drink the wedding wine, and you will have happy days every day!"
The two of them each held a wine glass, their arms intertwined, their eyes staring at each other, with only each other in their eyes.
Someone began to urge, "Drink it! Drink it!"
They smiled at each other and drank the sweet wine.
"The ceremony is over!"
After Yu Guangcheng finished shouting, he turned to Yan Fangming and said, "Old Yan, you are getting married today, say a few words to everyone!"
Yan Fangming smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I'll say a few words."
He glanced at Xiang Nuan and then smiled and said to the guests in the audience, "Thank you all for taking the time to come and attend our wedding. Enjoy your meal and drink!
I apologize for the poor hospitality!"
"That's all? Really just two sentences?"
Yu Guangcheng thought to himself, we are finally getting married, why don’t you say a few words?
"Everything is in the wine. I'm going to toast everyone later."
Yu Guangcheng laughed, "Alright, I have to get you drunk today!"
The people below also started laughing.
The food and wine prepared by Yan Fangming were quite good. There were eight dishes on the table, two meat dishes, five vegetable dishes and a soup. The staple food was white flour steamed buns.
Everyone came to the wedding during the lunch break, and had to go back to work after the meal, so those who wanted to drink didn't dare to drink too much.
Yu Guangcheng and two young soldiers in the team helped to entertain the guests. They were about to toast, so Yan Fangming asked Xiang Nuan to eat a few bites to fill her stomach.
"When I toast you later, just wet your lips with the wine, you don't have to drink it."
There were five tables of guests in total. She couldn't drink much, so if she drank all of it she would get drunk, and it would also be bad for her stomach.
Xiang Nuan nodded, "Okay."
Xiang Nuan had not eaten much when Yu Guangcheng came over and said that it was time to toast, otherwise the guests would have finished eating by now.
Yan Fangming nodded and started toasting at each table with Xiang Nuan.
After toasting everyone, more than 20 minutes had passed, mainly because it took a lot of time to recognize people with Yan Fangming.
After the toast, the two of them could finally sit down and have a few more bites of food.
Another half an hour passed and slowly some people started to leave. The two of them had almost finished eating, so they wiped their mouths and stood up to see them off.
By the time all the guests had left, it was almost two o'clock. Xiang Nuan finally relaxed. She felt that this wedding was simple enough, but she still felt very tired.
Yu Guangcheng grabbed Yan Fangming's neck and pulled him aside, "Old Yan, why don't you invite a few brothers to your house to have some fun tonight?"
