He Heihu wiped his tears and said in a choked voice, "First of all, I want to thank my father-in-law, mother-in-law and grandfather-in-law for raising Yinye so well. Our He family must have burned incense in the previous life to marry Yinye. I promise you that in the He family, we will make sure Yinye's life remains the same as before, and we will never let Yinye suffer any grievances. If she is wronged, I will let my in-laws beat and scold her without any complaints. Tuyuan, from today on, you are a family man. You have to shoulder the burden of the family, and you have to take on the responsibilities and obligations that a man should have. You must be ahead of your wife and children in everything, protect your wife from wind and rain, and take good care of your wife. The two of you must help each other, tolerate each other, and never let each other feel sad. Do you understand?" He Heihu first thanked the Du family, then spoke seriously to He Tuyuan, and finally to the two of them together.
He Tuyuan and Du Yinye both nodded.
When the Du family heard He Heihu say this, they felt a little more satisfied and relieved.
The guests below were listening attentively.
While they were talking, Xiao Di and the Du family's servants came in one after another, bringing up the meal prepared by Yi Yami in a rectangular basin, placing it in the previously designed position and covering it with a lid. The guests were all focused on their parents' speech and didn't notice it at all, except for a few who were distracted.
It was the Du family's turn to speak.
Master Du wiped his tears, coughed a few times, and said, "Tuyuan, Yinye is my little granddaughter. I didn't think highly of you at first, but you proved to me that you can make my little granddaughter happy, so I am willing to betroth Yinye to you. But you have to remember that my Du family will always be Du Yinye's backer. As long as I am alive, her parents and brother are alive, the Du family will be Du Yinye's backer. Don't think that you can bully her just because you become a higher official in the future. None of the daughters of my Du family has ever lived an unhappy life, so you have to inherit this good tradition." Master Du patted He Tuyuan on the shoulder.
He Tuyuan nodded heavily, "Don't worry, Grandpa."
"Be good to our Yinye. Yinye has been spoiled since she was a child. If she does something wrong, you should be more tolerant and don't bother with her. If you are really angry, come back and listen to us. We will teach her a lesson for you." Du Yinye's mother said to He Tuyuan earnestly.
He Tuyuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, Yin Ye won't do that, and I won't treat Yin Ye badly."
Du Yinye's father looked at Du Yinye and said, "Now that you are married, you should go home often. Your father and mother are at home and will miss you. Now that you are married, you should be filial to your parents-in-law, help your husband, and take good care of him and your children. Don't always think about where to go for fun."
Du Yinye smiled and said, "I understand, Dad."
Seeing that everyone had finished speaking, Granny Hua continued, "Listen attentively to your parents' teachings. A son lives a hundred years, but his mother worries for ninety-nine. I'm sure the two newlyweds have remembered what their parents have said. Now, please bow."
He Tuyuan and Du Yinye stood in their respective positions. Grandma Hua spoke and bowed to heaven and earth. The two of them bowed towards the sky and the guests.
The second time they bowed to their parents, the two of them bowed to their seated parents.
The husband and wife bowed to each other, and then they bowed to each other again.
"Come, the newlyweds, exchange wedding rings." Grandma Hua waved her hand, and Du Jinzhi's son and He Miao, who had been arranged in advance, each held a ring box and came up.
"Thank you both." Du Yinye said with a smile as she looked at the two children.
When the two opened the ring box, they were both shocked.
The ring was designed by Yi Yami and the craftsmen were rushed to make it.
A pair of gold rings with leaf shapes at the bottom and half wings at the top.
"Come, the groom puts the wedding ring on the bride's finger. The bride puts the wedding ring on the groom's finger. Before putting it on, the groom has to make a promise to the bride." Grandma Hua guided.
"Okay." He Tuyuan nodded, picked up the ring, and said to Du Yinye, "Ye'er, I'm finally going to marry you. In this life, I will never let go of your hand. The two of us will sleep in the same bed and die in the same grave. No external force can separate us. The heaven and the earth can bear witness to my love for you. If I am unfaithful, I will be punished by heaven and earth, and I will be condemned by both humans and gods." He Tuyuan raised his finger to swear.
Du Yinye wanted to stop him but it was too late, so she just let him go.
Du Yinye nodded slightly, stretched out her finger, and He Tuyuan put the ring on her.
Du Yinye also picked up the ring and said to him, "From the azure sky to the underworld, from heaven to earth, I will follow you forever."
He Tuyuan nodded and put on the wedding ring.
Grandma Hua smiled and said, "Come on, newlyweds, show us your wedding rings."
He Tuyuan and Du Yinye were confused and stretched out their hands. Granny Hua put their hands together and said with a smile, "May you fly together with wings together, flowers bloom and the moon is full, may you live together forever and grow old together!"
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
Grandma Hua smiled and waved her hand, saying, "The ceremony is over. Thank you all for your witness. Now we come to the second highlight of the wedding banquet. For this wedding banquet, we use the latest format. The food will not be served by servants. Instead, the guests can move around and take the plates in front of you to choose the food you want to enjoy. Do your best, but don't be greedy. We have prepared a lot of delicious food. Please move to your left and right." At Grandma Hua's command, the servants of the Du family and Xiao Di and the others opened the lids one by one. The dazzling array of food and the aroma made people salivate.
"Everyone has one, so don't fight or rush. Line up in an orderly manner. Everyone can relax and take it easy." Grandma Hua waved her hand, and music began to play on the podium. It was a very relaxing piece of music, which made the guests, who were a little nervous, relax instantly.
