Chapter 203 Rehearsal
Soon, it was Li Lei's wedding day.
Ji Yuanyuan got up early in the morning. The whole Li family was decorated with lights and full of joy.
Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming were outside busy entertaining the guests, and their voices could be heard from far away.
Li Xu helped her put on the clothes she would wear today: a little red skirt, white socks, black leather shoes, and a down jacket on the outside.
She instructed: "When you are about to go on stage, take off your coat, and put it back on when you come down, understand? Also, when you go on stage, hold hands with Brother Mu Cheng, and hold the ring firmly, don't let it fall!"
Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng will be flower girls at Li Lei's wedding today.
Li Xu was afraid that her daughter would be nervous and make mistakes, so she started reminding her again and again since yesterday.
Ji Yuanyuan could recite all of Li Xu's words. She yawned and nodded: "I understand. When will Brother Mu Cheng come?"
Li Lei’s house application in the city had not yet been completed, so his wedding was held in the countryside.
He lived in the big tiled house that Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming had prepared for him. He added some furniture to it and gave it a thorough cleaning, and it looked presentable.
Li Xu came here last night with Li Miao and Ji Yuanyuan. Zhang Kun was still at home in the county with his two children.
It was only a little after five o'clock, but there were many guests at home, so Ji Yuanyuan was forced to get up.
"Your brother Mu Cheng is still early. Someone will be coming home soon. You should follow your aunt and don't run around. OK?"
As Li Lei's sister and the eldest in the family, Li Xu must help her parents entertain the guests today. She has a lot of things to do and probably has no time to take care of Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, looked at Li Miao beside her and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I'm with my aunt and I'm not going anywhere!"
Li Xu was relieved and told Li Miao: "The meal is ready in the kitchen, take her to eat."
Li Miao reached out and picked up Ji Yuanyuan: "Don't worry, sister."
As she spoke, she kissed Ji Yuanyuan on the cheek and said, "Let's go, let's go eat!"
Li Lei and several groomsmen are now at the bridal chamber. After Li Xu settled her daughter down, she ran to the bridal chamber to help.
Li Miao took Ji Yuanyuan to finish their meal at only six o'clock.
Seeing Ji Yuanyuan nodding her head and looking very sleepy, Li Miao said with some concern: "Auntie will hold you, do you want to take a nap?"
The villagers were very friendly and would come to help out early in the morning whenever there was a happy event. So there were many people at home at this time, and both rooms were full of people.
She stretched out her hand and was about to hug Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan came back to her senses and shook her head: "I'm not sleepy, auntie!"
Last night, Ji Yuanyuan, Li Xu and Li Miao slept on the same kang.
The two sisters were very excited and chatted until after 1 a.m. While the two sisters were chatting, Ji Yuanyuan couldn't sleep and was forced to stay up until after 1 a.m.
I got up at around five o'clock and only slept for four hours at night.
It would be strange if I wasn’t sleepy!
Seeing her niece trying so hard, Li Miao felt even more distressed. Without saying anything, she picked up Ji Yuanyuan and let her little head rest on her shoulder: "Sleep for a while, auntie will take you to a quiet place!"
She held Ji Yuanyuan in her arms and walked out of the house.
Ji Yuanyuan didn't want to sleep, but she felt so comfortable in Li Miao's arms. She actually fell asleep while being rocked.
Li Miao was standing near the door of her house. She felt that Ji Yuanyuan relaxed all over and she breathed a sigh of relief.
With one hand he held Ji Yuanyuan, and with the other hand he gently patted her back.
She heard from her eldest sister that gently patting like this would help the child sleep more soundly.
At seven o'clock, Gong Wenbo drove over with Qin Junshan and Qin Mucheng. After parking the car, Qin Mucheng helped Qin Junshan get out of the car.
Both the grandparents and grandchildren wore suits and leather shoes today, looking very formal.
When Gong Wenbo got out of the car, Li Miao discovered that Gong Wenbo was also wearing a suit.
"Yuanyuan fell asleep?" Qin Junshan asked in a low voice.
"Well, I slept too late last night and got up too early this morning!" Li Miao said in a low voice.
"Why don't you give it to me? It's too tiring for you to hold it." Seeing this, Gong Wenbai stepped forward and said.
Li Miao raised his eyes to look at him, and shook his head a little stiffly: "No, she is not heavy."
Li Miao and Gong Wenbai are neither familiar nor unfamiliar.
Gong Wenbo picked her up and dropped her off twice, but the two of them never talked much.
"Why don't we put it in the car? It's more comfortable to sleep in the car!" Qin Mucheng suggested.
Li Miao hesitated for a moment, and Gong Wenbo had already reached out and hugged Ji Yuanyuan over.
Ji Yuanyuan was lying on Li Miao's body, and when Gong Wenbai stretched out his hand, he inevitably touched Li Miao's hand.
"I'm sorry!" Gong Wenbai apologized gracefully.
Li Miao was stunned for a moment, then said: "It's okay!"
I don’t know why, but when I looked at Gong Wenbo’s eyes again, I felt something was not right.
Gong Wenbo was very careful in holding the child. After opening the car door, he carefully placed Ji Yuanyuan on the back seat.
The car seat was flat and Ji Yuanyuan slept soundly.
I slept until around nine o'clock, when I was woken up by Qin Mucheng.
Ji Yuanyuan opened her eyes hazily and saw the handsome little head sticking in from the car window.
"Yuanyuan, hurry up and get up. The wedding will start in an hour." Qin Mucheng tiptoed and said to Ji Yuanyuan, "Your uncle has brought the bride back. She is so beautiful!"
After a few seconds of silence, Ji Yuanyuan came to her senses. She quickly got up from her seat and got out of the car.
Gong Wenbai was also nearby. When he saw Ji Yuanyuan getting out of the car, he rolled up the window and locked the car.
Qin Mucheng stepped forward and held Ji Yuanyuan's hand.
"If you are nervous at that time, just hold my hand tightly." Qin Mucheng instructed, "What we have to do is very simple, just follow the bride to scatter flowers, and then hand over the ring."
Ji Yuanyuan was naturally not nervous, but in front of Qin Mucheng, she still nodded and said, "Okay!"
Weddings in rural areas are relatively simple, with a tent and a stage set up in the open air.
The place to eat is at home, with several tables set up in the yard. If our own yard is not big enough, we can borrow the neighbor's yard.
This was Qin Mucheng's first time as a flower girl. Although he kept telling Ji Yuanyuan not to be too nervous, he himself was actually very nervous.
I was afraid that I would make some mistake and ruin someone else's wedding.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, it has to be perfect!
So, while everyone was still in the bridal chamber, he dragged Ji Yuanyuan to the stage.
Rehearse twice first, and then you won’t be so nervous when you actually go on stage, and you won’t make mistakes.
There were two people behind the stage, seemingly arranging the background board. When they saw someone coming, they lowered their heads, covered their faces with hats, and quickly hid their figures behind the background board.
