Chapter 12
**
It's been a while since I last updated, probably three weeks now. Thanks to everyone for following me so carefully. After returning from Hong Kong, I'm still busy with wedding preparations, moving, wedding photos, birthday week, and other birthday celebrations. There's actually a lot I can write about, so I'll write slowly. After Blue Tears is finished, the frequency of updates for this article should increase significantly.
Let me write about the marriage first.
In fact, before getting married, seeing Princess Iron Fan, whose wedding date was about the same as mine, busy with her wedding every day like she was fighting a war, I really thought she was making a fuss about nothing. But when it really came to my turn and after deciding on the wedding venue, I found that there were indeed many things to do. Not to mention the small details at the end, the four most important things in a wedding: the wedding planner, the emcee team, the makeup team, and the photography and videography team are the top priorities.
Fortunately, Brother 6 and I are both straightforward and opinionated people, and our visions are very similar. After the wedding arrangements were finalized, we saw videos of several excellent emcees through the wedding person in charge. We immediately decided to meet with the emcee, Teacher Y, who looked the most stable.
The first chat with the emcee is actually like a process of interviewing and making friends. We need to understand his style and temperament, and he also needs to understand our story and be close to us spiritually.
We made an appointment with Teacher Y at a cafe near my home. After sitting down and chatting for a few minutes, I found that Teacher Y was indeed a very calm and emotionally intelligent person. It was very comfortable and we got along very well with him. I also found that he and I had the same zodiac sign, both reliable and stable Capricorns, and my affection for him instantly doubled. Haha, after the initial greetings, he slowly began to guide us to introduce our story to him.
Of course, starting with how we met and fell in love with each other, my 14-year legendary first love journey with Brother Liu also made Teacher Y feel very interesting. Teacher Y said, "It is really not easy to be with your first love. It is said that first love is the most favorite white moonlight in one's life."
I nodded proudly, "My husband is an Aquarius. They say an Aquarius only loves two women in his life, one is his first love, and the other is his wife. I have both, hahaha."
Teacher Y asked, "Tell me honestly, you both have developed relationships during the years you've been apart, right?"
We both nodded.
Teacher Y: “Well, that’s good. We don’t hide things from each other.”
Me: "I think the reason we're together again is related to our experiences. These experiences have made us both mature and become better people. There's nothing wrong with that, and there's nothing to hide."
After a few rounds of chatting, Teacher Y had pretty much figured out our personalities. "You two, Sangsang is the lively, outgoing type who loves making friends. He's the face and image ambassador of your family. Sixth Brother, on the other hand, is the calm and rational type. He's the strategist behind the scenes. You two really complement each other."
Brother 6 and I looked at each other and laughed.
"So, both of you tell me, what is it about each other that attracts you the most?"
I glanced at Brother 6 and began to talk non-stop with a smile. "I like that he's steady and rational, very reliable, and can always provide me with solutions when I ask questions. He's intelligent, careful, kind, and gentle with me."
“And good-looking.”
They all laughed.
"Also," I said, "most importantly, I can be myself in front of him. I don't have any idol baggage. I can act when I want to, cry when I want to, laugh when I want to, and make a fuss when I want to. He doesn't back off because I'm too strong like other boys do. Instead, he thinks I'm cute and funny. I feel very comfortable in front of him and I'm not afraid that he'll dislike me. It's as natural as being with my parents."
"What about Brother Six?"
I looked at Brother 6 with stars in my eyes and full of anticipation. You know, he is actually not good at speaking. It is a bit difficult to ask him to say something particularly corny, explicit and heartfelt to my face, and this is in front of other people.
He pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly, "She has a high emotional intelligence and is very smart. She's the kind of person who's considerate of others and very attentive to things. She's very kind to everyone around her, especially me. Everyone likes her, and she's also very kind and generous."
"She's like my sunshine."
My heart skipped a beat when I heard this.
"She is really funny and always brings me joy. Whenever I am unhappy, she will help me relieve my worries and enlighten me to cheer me up. Every day when I come home and see her, I feel very happy."
I felt very touched for a moment. I turned around and looked at Brother 6, who was blushing and embarrassed after saying that. I hugged him tightly. He smiled and bent down to kiss me.
I think he expressed the greatest value of my love for him, which is also the greatest ability I possess. The person I love can understand my heart and be grateful for my love for him. This must be the most beautiful thing in the world.
Teacher Y on the opposite side tutted his mouth and shook his head. "Although I'm not single, I still feel like I've been hit hard."
I chatted with Teacher Y for nearly an hour and a half. He is a person who can make people open up to him. I can feel that Brother 6 also likes Teacher Y very much. After parting with Teacher Y, we decided to decide on Teacher Y to be our wedding host.
On the way home, I shook Brother Liu's hand and said proudly, "Did you notice that others think we are a good match and that we have a good relationship."
Brother 6 remained noncommittal, "Why would they get married if they're not compatible?"
The makeup and hair team were friends of mine, so we decided on them very quickly. The photography and videography team was also decided smoothly. Brother Liu and I looked at the works together and then discussed and decided. Within a week, the two of us decided on everything that might have taken several months to consider.
Brother 6 and I are the kind of people who have similar perspectives and are willing to listen to each other's opinions, so there were no unpleasant disagreements throughout the whole process.
After the four major wedding elements were decided, we were busy taking indoor wedding photos. I thought it would be as simple as taking photos on the day, but I found that there were other preparations to be done in advance. For example, we had to choose five dresses for the day a week in advance.
On the day of choosing the dress, my sixth brother, my parents and I went together. My sixth brother's suit was ordered very quickly. As long as the size was measured, he could basically carry off different colors. He is tall and thin with fair skin. My wedding dress was more complicated. When I was choosing, almost my whole family was leaning in front of the rows of dresses to make a selection.
At this time, I have to praise Brother 6. When everyone was hesitating about which one to choose, he was the one who looked at me on the chair with his chin in his hand, and then he would decisively say, "The second one is good, it suits her" or "This one looks good, choose this one."
Once he gives his reasons, everyone will think he is right.
My dad quietly pulled me aside and said, "66 really is quite opinionated and has good judgment."
I burst out laughing. Even the emcee, Mr. Y, told me on WeChat that he thought Brother 6 was a very opinionated guy. "Even though he doesn't usually make up his mind, he's very helpful in making decisions at critical moments. That's really great."
On the day of the wedding photo shoot, my brother 6 and I got up very early. After breakfast, we took all the necessary items and rushed to the shooting location. Then I started my morning makeup which lasted for a full two hours. Although I almost fell asleep during the process, when I saw myself in the mirror after finishing, I felt that these two hours were still very worthwhile. Hahahaha.
I was especially happy with his reaction when I took a selfie for Brother 6. He said: Wow, she is so stunning.
Of course, I didn't hold back on my praise. When Brother 6 sent me the photo, I naturally praised him: "Wow, you're so handsome! You're so handsome, I'll marry you right now, right now, right now!"
There were a total of five outfits that day. The celebrity wedding dress and the secondary wedding dress were photographed in the morning, and after lunch, the main wedding dress, the evening dress and the red wedding dress were photographed.
In the morning, my brother and I were still feeling fresh and energetic during the photo shoot. However, when we were eating takeout McDonald's during the only 15-minute lunch break, we both collapsed. During the main wedding photo shoot in the afternoon, we were almost asleep throughout it. All we could hear was the photographer yelling from the other side, "Bride, what are you doing? Move, move! Hey, groom, are you starting to walk like a snake? Why are you walking so crookedly?"
…
In such a sleepy, tired and cold environment, we finally finished the wedding photo shoot that lasted for ten hours. When we changed our clothes and sat on the sofa, we both felt that we were about to give up.
But when I got home and looked at the photos I took with my mobile phone and the few small photos that the photographer had retouched and sent me, I still felt that the tiring day was worth it. After all, this was our best time, and we must take a few more beautiful photos as souvenirs.
My birthday week came right after the wedding photos were taken. I had dinners with friends almost every day, with Xiao Qi Shui Ge, Princess Iron Fan, Tang Monk, and my besties Xiao Bai, Pang Pang, Di Di, A Qi, Dang Dang, etc. Every year at this time, I feel like I have celebrated many birthdays. I always have these good friends around me to celebrate, and I feel really happy. Of course, there is also your company. It has been seven years since we met online. You have watched me grow up from college to now working and getting married. Some of my readers were just in college when they first met me, and now they even have children. I feel very emotional. Time flies. Thank you for always loving and supporting me. I am really grateful.
In the early morning of my actual birthday, my brother 6 and I were reviewing the movie Identity on TV at home. As soon as it was past 12 o'clock, he stopped watching and hugged me.
"Happy birthday, honey and sweetheart!"
This was actually a very wonderful experience for me. In the past years, at this time of year, I was usually either asleep or lying in bed checking the WeChat blessings sent by friends. But this was the first time that my loved ones were by my side, sending me blessings face to face in our home on time.
Then he brought the gift he had prepared for me earlier to me.
I was so happy when I opened the gift that I hugged him and screamed and spun around. He looked at me and smiled. Then he waited for me to calm down and started reading the birthday letter he wrote to me.
"Today is your birthday and also our two-month wedding day. I hope your baby is healthy, all your dreams come true, and you're happy every day. Starting a family isn't easy, but thankfully we've both done a great job and have a great start. It's such a blessing to be home with you every day! I hope we can work hard together to build a happy family, be a model couple, and always show off our sweet love!"
I sat opposite him and watched him read, laughing the whole time, but when he read the last paragraph, my nose felt sore.
"There are many unknowns and uncertainties in the future, but the only thing I know for sure is that the person I love most will always be my Sang Bao. I hope we will always be sweet and happy."
I think the happiest and most special thing about my birthday this year is that I have become Brother 6’s wife. I will have his company every year from now on, until we grow old.
When I woke up in the morning, I saw the WeChat messages from my parents and started crying again. They all expressed the same thing - they love me very much and think my birthday this year is particularly meaningful because I have a different identity and I am married and have my own husband. They all hope that my sixth brother and I will work together to maintain our little family. In the final analysis, happiness depends on our own pursuit and experience. They just hope that we will always be happy.
Many times I feel that I am a very lucky person. I have always been loved and cared for by the people around me and grew up in an environment of love. So I think I should do more, care more about and love the people around me, and repay the love they give me.
Thank you everyone. In the new year, please give me more advice. I hope to bring you more good works, keep writing, and accompany you all the way to find your happiness.
