Chen Yuefei asked with a smile: "Yun, do you think this candy is sweet enough?"
Jiang Jun nodded and said vaguely: "Sweet but not greasy, I like this taste the most!"
Chen Yuefei took two bites of the candy and said, "My brother likes to use sugar when entertaining guests. It can't be too bland or too greasy. It seems that you two really think alike."
Jiang Jun suddenly remembered that he had eaten his own wedding candy in advance!
Back at the courtyard, Hong Hao heard the noise and rushed over to knock on the door: "Jiang, I want to go tomorrow too!"
Jiang Jun quickly said, "Welcome, welcome!"
Chen Yuefei sniffed: "Sister, do you eat noodles with gravy at home? Is there any left? Even a bite will do! Yun cooks and I have to wait until my brother comes back before eating. If I wait until midnight, I will starve to death."
Hong Hao couldn't wait to pull Jiang Yun over and whispered, "I'll ask Aunt Zhang to make it right now. It will be ready soon. Come to our house and warm up. We just lit the charcoal in the house."
Jiang Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had been tense since she entered the alley, and now she urgently needed someone to talk to her and distract her.
Hong Hao pulled Jiang Yun into his room and said, "Jiang, Huang Chunbo wrote a couplet and a wedding speech, and he wanted to read it himself. My mom and I haven't started a family yet, so I have to go to your wedding alone. So he gave me the task of reading the speech. But, uh, well, I looked at it, and I don't think I can read it out. How about you take a look and see if you can do it? If not, don't read it. If you can, ask Wu's comrades to read it?"
Jiang Jun took the letter, baffled. "Huang Chunbo is a truly talented scholar! This couplet is so beautifully written. Why can't I recite it?"
Hong Hao's eyes widened: "My colleagues laughed me to death!"
Huang Chunbo told Hong Hao the contents of the letter over the phone, and Hong Hao wrote it down word for word. Every one of the dozen or so colleagues in the editorial department heard it: "I've never seen Hu Dongbao across from me laugh so hard, even when I listen to crosstalk. I answer a call, and he repeats it to me, afraid I'll make a mistake."
"What's so funny about this?" Jiang Jun didn't get the joke. He read it again, then read it aloud: "First line: Up and down is not class oppression, create a harmonious society together. Second line: In and out several times is not a barbaric invasion, create a new generation of people. Horizontal banner: Life lies in movement."
The sound really has energy, which is more humorous than just a glance.
Jiang Jun noticed the pun and blushed: "You can't read that!"
The cake seller, two unmarried girls, closed the door and recited such couplets in the house. If Wang Yuzhen knew about this, she would definitely give them a good beating.
Hong Hao chuckled: "Our editor-in-chief, you'd better copy this couplet and stick it on the headboard of your bed!"
Jiang Jun waved his hand: "No, no!"
How could she ever look directly at the couplet "Life lies in movement"? It was best not to let Chen Yuanwu see it!
The Hong family's nanny came over and called Jiang Yun out to eat noodles.
Chen Yuefei had already eaten half a bowl in big mouthfuls: "Yun, I haven't waited for you, hurry up and eat it while it's hot, don't be polite!"
Jiang Jun sat down and took two chopsticks of noodles before losing his appetite. He put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full."
Chen Yuefei was surprised: "Yun, are you full after eating just this little?"
Hong Haoye: "Is it not to your taste? How about I make something else for you?"
Aunt Zhang, the Hong family's nanny, expressed her envy: "City dwellers have it better. They earn a lot of money from work and eat less, so they can save a lot of money in a year!" If her son could marry such a daughter-in-law in the future, it would be a blessing for his ancestors!
Only Wang Yuzhen knew that Jiang Jun was nervous. "The wedding is tomorrow afternoon, why are you so nervous? If you don't eat enough, you won't have the energy tomorrow. Director Ye came with me specifically to help you eat more."
It was okay. The more these people came, the more nervous Jiang Jun became. Listening to the sound of Chen Yuefei drinking noodle soup, she wanted to stand up and run home to be alone.
At the critical moment, Chen Yuanwu appeared again and put the noodles in front of him: "No need to make more for me, I'll just finish this."
The Chen and Hong families had lived next door to each other for so many years that the children of the two families were familiar with each other without any formalities. In front of the Hong family, Chen Yuanwu ate all the noodles in Jiang Yun's bowl and drank half a bowl of noodle soup.
Aunt Zhang was even more envious: Wu was promoted, but he still maintained the good habits of hard work, simplicity, diligence and thrift, and did not waste any food. He was indeed a conscious person!
Now that Chen Yuanwu has returned, Hong Hao has no reason to drag Jiang Jun to stay and talk to Wang Yuzhen: "Mom, I find that this person is different when he is married and when he is not! Wu is more spoiled than Uncle Chen!"
…
Although Chen Yuanwu was away on a mission, he had called someone to arrange everything. When he came back, he first decorated the new house according to his own ideas, and then called Jiang Jun to pick her up.
After a final check, he found that there was no film left, so he drove to the pictorial office to borrow film from the photography editor. He was determined to give Jiang Yun the most perfect wedding.
Jiang Yun didn't want to stay in the courtyard: "Lao Wu, let's go back tonight?"
Chen Yuanwu wanted to save the surprise for later. "I'll call your dad and have him meet up at the courtyard. My parents will drive over tomorrow, and we'll go together then."
Jiang Yun hesitated. "I haven't taken my newly bought curtains and bed sheets over to change them yet. If I go over tomorrow and change them, will it be in time?"
Chen Yuanwu nodded: "It's not too late, it's not too late. We won't wait for your father. Why are we leaving tomorrow morning? I just want to buy some fresh snacks to entertain the guests."
Jiang Jun's mind was hazy, and she had no idea what to do. "Okay." At this moment, she wanted to be a doll and let Chen Yuanwu hold her. "What time do I have to get up tomorrow morning?"
Chen Yuanwu: "If you're tired, go to sleep first. I'll arrange tomorrow's schedule."
Jiang Jun's eyes widened. "Process? Are there so many steps? Isn't it just two people sitting there, wearing a big red flower, giving a speech, and handing out wedding candy, and that's it?"
Chen Yuanwu smiled mysteriously: "Hurry up and get some rest, you'll have a lot of things to do tomorrow!"
Jiang Jun was alert: "What's going on? Is someone going to cause trouble in the bridal chamber?"
Those old soldiers and cadres are not picky about food or meat when they make jokes.
When she lived in the division headquarters' staff quarters, she had heard those people's jokes. Compared to them, Huang Chunbo's jokes were relatively civilized.
Ming must not do anything to her. It's so embarrassing just thinking about it.
Chen Yuanwu assured: "Who dares to make trouble in the bridal chamber? Aren't you afraid that I will make trouble back? I will let Fei watch over it tomorrow and won't give others the chance to make trouble, so you can rest assured!"
