July 20th is an auspicious day for marriage.
Jiang Bin, Du Cheng, Deng Jianguo and Xing Haodong's childhood friends got up before dawn.
Many other brothers and comrades from the army also came. The large number of people gave the security department of the military compound a headache.
Deng Jianguo was the most exaggerated. He collected ten Audis to pick up Xing Haodong for his bride, but was finally rejected by Xing Yi. Although the domestic economy is booming and people's living conditions are improving, as state cadres, the Xing family cannot show off and it is best to keep a low profile.
Xing Haodong picked out five of them, and together with his Beijing Jeep, it was just an auspicious number.
But even so, it still caused a sensation in the military compound and attracted many passers-by to watch.
Five brand new Audis, just for the wedding, they would be the first of their kind even in a military compound!
As the groom, Xing Haodong did not drive today, but he set off firecrackers and scattered wedding candies when he went out, creating a lively atmosphere.
The banquet was held in two courtyard hotels owned by Jiang Mingxin, with more than twenty tables filled to the brim.
In addition, there are private rooms specially prepared for the old leaders.
The hotel was packed with guests who came to congratulate the bride, and it was very lively. Many nearby residents had already found seats and stood on the roadside, wanting to see what the bride looked like with such a grand ceremony.
Xing Haodong was dressed in a well-tailored black suit, looking energetic and handsome.
Because she was getting married today, she had a rare smile on her face and looked particularly gentle.
He brought his groomsmen to the gate of the courtyard and stuffed handfuls of red envelopes into the crack of the door. His strong and sturdy comrades rushed forward and almost tore the door panel apart.
"Hey, hey, hey, take it easy! Your sister-in-law really likes this red-painted gate. What if she breaks it?"
Xing Haodong ran up the stairs with a bouquet of flowers, asked everyone to step aside, and knocked on the door gently.
"Sister Xintang, if you have any problems, just come up with them. If I say 'no', the children we have from now on will have your sister's last name!"
Wow, you are so arrogant!
Kong Xintang winked at Du Cheng beside him, and Du Cheng immediately slipped a note out from under the door.
Xing Haodong picked it up and took a look, his expression froze.
Jiang Bin was next to him, snatched it away, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Groom, please sing a love song to express your love for the bride! That's enough, we were so busy reciting poems last night that we didn't ask you to learn to sing!"
They knew that the one who would block the door would be Kong Xintang, and they thought that since she was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, the questions would definitely be about these things. But they didn't expect that she would go against the grain and actually ask him to sing a love song.
This really stumped Xing Haodong.
He knew military songs so well that he could sing several without stopping, but this love song...
But he had just made some harsh remarks, so he couldn't back down.
Recalling the song he heard playing in a music store a few days ago, Xing Haodong cleared his throat and spoke in a deep, deep voice: "My love is getting more passionate every day. I want to give you more and more without stopping..."
And then? And then nothing happened.
He only remembered this sentence.
Du Cheng, who was listening from inside the door, slapped his thigh and laughed until his stomach hurt. "Hahahaha, Xing Haodong, your duck voice is so terrible. No, sing another song!"
Xing Haodong's voice was as loud as a bell: "You have no say! Sister Xintang, I'm tone-deaf. Are you sure you want me to sing another song?"
Kong Xintang frowned and said, "Forget it, forget it. Next question! Where did you and Mingxin meet for the first time?"
He answered without hesitation: "Jiangjiatun!"
"What is your token of love?"
"Mingxin made this silver ring himself, but I actually think... it should be an iron nail."
Hearing this answer, everyone around laughed, thinking that Xing Haodong was being humorous.
Kong Xintang flipped open the note Jiang Mingxin had prepared for her and raised the corners of her lips: "All the answers are correct!"
She and Du Cheng opened the door.
This time Xing Haodong was not polite at all, and rushed in all at once, until he reached the door of the bridal chamber. Suddenly he felt a little "homesick", and stood at the door and didn't dare to go in.
Jiang Mingxin's butt was numb from sitting so hard, and all he wanted was to finish the process quickly. He shouted out the door, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Do you still want me to give you a problem?"
Xing Haodong was pushed hard by seven or eight hands behind him and rushed in.
When he saw Jiang Mingxin in her wedding dress, his mind went blank and he was stunned for five seconds.
Jiang Mingxin's cheeks gradually turned red. She shyly lifted her skirt and walked in front of him.
"Are you stupid? Do I look good?"
"Beautiful...beautiful, so pretty."
Xing Haodong was not good at sweet talk, and at this moment his limbs were stiff and he was so nervous that he almost stuttered.
On the contrary, Jiang Mingxin was much calmer than him. She took his arm and waved to the people at the door, "Comrades, please make way!"
Jiang Bin and Deng Jianguo immediately maintained order and asked the large group of groomsmen to stand on both sides.
The young people who were originally making a fuss, when they saw the bride, opened their mouths wide and were so surprised that they were speechless.
Jiang Mingxin put on makeup today, curled her bangs, braided her long hair, and deliberately picked up two strands of hair on her temples and curled them into waves.
Her red lips were rosy, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and her snow-white skin was covered by a silk wedding dress. Standing next to Xing Haodong, who was dressed in black, she looked particularly white, especially her neck and shoulders, which were so white that they seemed translucent and dyed with a delicate pink.
Her posture is also extremely elegant, graceful and slender, and the drapey skirt sways like water waves with her steps, charming and attractive.
Everyone's eyes were on her.
Jiang Mingxin smiled brilliantly, like a beauty walking out of a picture magazine, stunning the time.
The noise in the garden was silenced by her smile.
Only after Xing Haodong and she walked out hand in hand did someone speak.
"Sister-in-law is so beautiful!"
"Prettier than movie actors."
"The dress she's wearing should be a wedding dress. I've only seen it in magazines before."
"When I get married, I'll also arrange one for my wife!"
More than one person present thought the same as him, even Du Cheng and Jiang Bin had this plan.
The image of Jiang Mingxin in a wedding dress was deeply imprinted in their minds, and they felt that a woman looked the most beautiful in a wedding dress.
But this impression was quickly broken during the subsequent toasting session.
When Jiang Mingxin walked out of the room wearing a bright red cheongsam and a pearl flower on her head, all the guests fell silent at the same time and were stunned again.
She looks good in anything she wears!
I couldn't help but envy Xing Haodong's good fortune from the bottom of my heart.
The comrades, buddies, and childhood friends who came to attend his wedding couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.
Deng Jianguo sighed, "Haodong got married quite late. We used to laugh at him for being allergic to pretty girls. He might end up marrying an ugly woman."
A childhood friend beside him nodded indignantly: "And now, this guy married a goddess! Isn't that infuriating?"
