Upon hearing her husband's words, Qin Shuang's sadness vanished. She looked at him in surprise, thinking to herself, "He really has a thick skin!" But what he said was also true.
Zhang Weiyu relaxed when he saw that Qin Shuang was no longer sad; he truly couldn't bear to see his wife's tears.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Xiang Dong thought to himself, "I've really learned something new. Third Brother is indeed Third Brother. I've learned another trick."
He wasn't driving fast; his lunch break was at 10:45, so he wasn't in a hurry.
Gu Yaozu received repeated instructions from the elders in the Zou family.
Because the Zou family had many children, he was the last to meet his wife.
The younger siblings were no pushovers either. The one who came to pick up the bride was Xiang Bei, a very clever and cunning boy who was quite adept at dealing with these kids.
The adults in the Zou family just watched the spectacle from the sidelines and did nothing to stop it.
Although there was no "intercepting the gate" as in ancient times, it was still an hour before he could see his wife.
Zou Haiyin smiled as her husband entered. Their relationship was the best; they loved each other more than their brothers.
Looking at his beautiful wife, Gu Yaozu felt a surge of heat throughout his body.
He picked up Zou Haiyin, sat her on the edge of the bed, and squatted down to put her shoes on.
Now the Zou family children stopped objecting. Although they were young, they knew that their brother-in-law was truly good to their eldest sister.
The two left the room hand in hand and bowed to the old man.
"Grandpa, Mom and Dad, I've come to pick up Haiyin."
"Good, good!" Zou Shiming was genuinely happy. His granddaughter had found happiness.
"Hainin, Grandpa knows you are a good child. You will be a daughter-in-law of the Zhang family in the future, and you will be an adult. But in our eyes you are still a child. Our door will always be open for you."
Zou Haiyin's tears streamed down her face. "Grandpa, I will definitely be happy, don't worry. I will definitely live my life to the fullest."
"Okay, Grandpa believes in you, but I still want to remind you that you must be filial to your elders. You learned the Rules for Being a Good Student and Child when you were little, so you should know how to treat your elders properly."
"Yes, Grandpa. I will definitely be a dutiful junior."
"Yaozu, you two must be happy. My Haiyin is someone we've spoiled since she was little. If she's wrong, sit down and talk to her directly."
"Grandpa, I will. Haiyin will be my wife from now on. We are one, and I will never let her down."
Zou Shiming was even happier after hearing Gu Yaozu's words.
Zou Haiyin's parents looked at their daughter and son-in-law with satisfaction.
They had nothing more to say; they had already said everything they needed to say.
Gu Yaozu knew that the Zou family had many children, so he prepared a lot of red envelopes. Xiang Bei was more clever than Xiang Dong; he didn't need to say anything and just distributed them to the children while they were having fruit tea.
It was Zhang Weiyu who reminded Xiang Dong to give the Qin siblings red envelopes; this is the difference between the two brothers.
Gu Yaozu didn't need to rush; he could arrive at the hotel by 11:00. So he greeted Haiyin's second and third uncles' families again.
Both families were a little apprehensive about their niece and son-in-law. However, they were both adults and quite satisfied with Gu Yaozu's character.
After having fruit tea, the bodyguards put Zou Haiyin's clothes into the car.
"Haine, I'm telling you to get in the car."
"good!"
Seeing how well the young couple loved each other, the Zou family felt even more at ease. Nothing was more important than the couple's loving relationship.
After seeing them off, the Zou family sat together.
“Dad, Gu Yaozu is really quite good.” Zou Jingxu, the second uncle of the Zou family, said with a smile.
"Yes, elder brother and sister-in-law, don't worry. Although the Zhang family is powerful and influential, judging from the son-in-law's upbringing, you can tell they must be a very polite family," Aunt Zou added casually.
"Yes, elder brother and sister-in-law, you don't need to worry. Haiyin is a blessed person." Aunt Zou also comforted the elder brother and sister-in-law with a smile.
The children opened the red envelopes and exclaimed, "Grandpa, my brother-in-law is really generous! He gave each of us twenty yuan!"
The Zou family's relatives are all in their hometown, but the truly close ones have all come over. This time, Zou's third uncle, his two aunts and their families, and Zou Haiyin's two uncles and two aunts have come along.
Zhang Zhenye's wedding car arrived at the hotel entrance precisely at 10:15. Because it was outside, there were a large crowd of onlookers.
Yang Lijun looked at it and whispered to Zhang Zhenye, "It's better not to carry me inside. I'm afraid some people might use this against me."
"It's alright. If we're afraid of everything, how will we live in the future?" Zhang Zhenye was quite satisfied with Yang Lijun's understanding, but he knew exactly what to do.
There were guards and bodyguards on both sides of the hotel entrance. Zhang Zhenye got out of the car, picked up Yang Lijun, and strode inside.
The onlookers outside were all eating wedding candy, and seeing such a good-looking young couple, they all said flattering things to them.
The makeup artist and bodyguards followed behind them, and then Chaoyang and his group.
When I arrived at the hotel lobby, I saw my family's elderly relatives.
Zhang Zhenye walked directly in front of them and put Yang Lijun down. The two of them knelt down at the same time and kowtowed to their elder.
All their relatives and friends gathered around and watched them.
This step was simply to greet the elderly person, after which Yang Lijun would go inside to change clothes. Since there were no outsiders present, she could wear the clothes Zhang Hongmei had prepared.
"Alright, you two go change your clothes. Ruifeng and the others should be here soon," Zhang Xingguo said with a smile to Zhenye and the others.
The videographers and photographers didn't stop; these were precious memories that had to be preserved intact.
The young couple went upstairs and entered the room prepared for them.
"You go into the inner room, I'll change my clothes in the living room."
Yang Lijun nodded and went inside with her bodyguards and makeup artist. The first dress she wore was a bright red wedding gown.
Wang Ying and Lu Jing were responsible for arranging for the bride's relatives who came from her family.
Huang Meihua smiled and said to Zhang Hongmei, "In less than an hour, all four of your daughters-in-law will be married into the family."
“Yes, godmother, I’m only thirty-eight years old and I’ve already become a mother-in-law,” Zhang Hongmei said with emotion.
"You can be a grandmother when you're thirty-nine."
Wang Xinyi laughed from the side. "That's right, Hongmei will definitely be a grandmother soon."
As they were chatting, the sound of firecrackers came from outside. It was Zhang Ruifeng and his wife who had arrived.
The process was the same: the young couple kowtowed to the elderly.
Zhang Weiyu wasn't late either. Seeing the handsome young man come in, all his relatives smiled and congratulated him.
After they finished kowtowing, they stood up. Qin Shuang was still very embarrassed and kept her head down.
"Weiyu, you guys go change your clothes too. Once Yaozu comes back and is changed, the ceremony can begin."
