47. Wedding (Part 2)
Wedding, which is an ancient ceremony, represents a man and a woman forming a common family, and also represents a beautiful love entering a new stage.
Many people say that it is the tomb of love, but it can also be implied as a new beginning, which will be the starting point of transforming love into family affection.
This is a beautiful thing, and it always makes people feel warm and happy.
Although it was a small, insider wedding, Eric and Charlie's wedding scene was anything but shabby.
Eric's wealthy cousin hired a professional team to arrange the wedding for Eric, and bought this villa near the sea with the best view nearby as Eric and Charlie's new home .
This is making it up to Eric.
Eric gave up his right to inherit the Wakanda throne to ensure that T'Challa can succeed to the throne smoothly, and also to avoid the bloody storm that may appear in the Wakanda royal family.
Eric is the theoretical Prince of Wakanda, but this is an identity that cannot be made public.
On the other hand, Charlie's background is not simple at all. Although Charlie's family is just ordinary people, the relationship between her and Merlin, as well as the knight affiliation between her and the Cybertronian Bumblebee, this Girls can't be regarded as ordinary people.
Unfortunately, because there are ordinary people at the wedding, the three Cybertronians, Bumblebee, Jazz, and Horus, cannot attend the wedding in a grand manner.
Jazz is docked on the top floor of the villa, the jolly Cybertronian responsible for today's wedding music, while Bumblebee and Horus lurk further down the coastline.
They are responsible for the fireworks display at the wedding, while guarding against possible accidents.
The host of the wedding was Father Paul who had been invited from New York a few days in advance.
This is also an old acquaintance of Merlin and Eric.
Eric spent a long time in the St. Agnes Orphanage. He regarded Father Paul as an elder. Merlin still lives in Hell's Kitchen, and occasionally goes to St. Matthew's Church and Father Paul. have a chat.
The priest was a little older than before, but he was hale and hearty and in good health. After receiving Eric's wedding invitation, he did not refuse.
May was touching up makeup for Little Peter and Laura. The two youngest children were selected as flower girls. Little Peter accepted the task with a smile and let Aunt May paint on his little face, but Laura did not Always with an expressionless face.
But it doesn't matter, Laura's appearance is already cute, even with a straight face, she can be regarded as a very qualified flower girl.
Master Gu Gu was also forced to put on very festive clothes to serve as the mascot of the wedding. As for the silly dog Frank, he was changed into a black suit for puppies, barely counting as the number two mascot.
On the side of the best man group are T'Challa, Matt, Charlie's brother, and Damian who was pulled to make up the numbers.
As for the bridesmaids, Ruiwen, Ororo, Su Rui, Lorna, Daisy, and Xilia who came to eat and drink as Merlin's relatives and friends, and the last moment was long overdue Miss Ghost Little Ava.
In order to participate in today's wedding, Ava even took off the "ghost" combat uniform used to maintain body stability.
She wears the three quantum restraint devices on her wrist and neck under the guise of bracelets and necklaces. She would rather endure the pain caused by the quantum state than miss her good friend's big day.
This is only the people who can come to the wedding today. Eric also has a group of wizard friends in Europe. He has a good relationship with Harry, Ron and Hermione.
He went to attend the wedding of a wizard friend, and the former little wizards also wanted to form a group, but for various reasons, Eric declined.
After the wedding, he will go to Europe with Charlie to visit his friends.
"so good."
Merlin and Elsa sat in the first row of the hall of the villa, watching the final preparations for the wedding in front of them, while Elsa held his arm and rested her head on his shoulder. The two were like a real couple.
"What did you and Ruiwen talk about just now?"
Merlin asked softly:
"I saw Ruiwen seemed to be crying. She still depends on you as before, right?"
"Ruiwen and I hit it off very well. I regard her as a younger sister or a daughter. How should I put it, I also want to be by that child's side all the time. There are always things she can't say to you."
Elsa sighed, and she said softly:
"She feels that you have been overprotecting her. She feels that she is not free. She is carrying the shackles of her relatives and has more and more concerns. Ruiwen is very worried about the inevitable confrontation between her and Sangong in the future. She is worried that she will Lose, she is worried that she will leave you, she is worried that she will hurt you."
"That silly girl."
Merlin shook his head and said:
"I won't let that future happen. Ruiwen will have her own life, a life that will not be disturbed. How did you comfort her? What did you say that made Ruiwen cry?"
"I told her that she is free to choose her life and her beliefs."
Elsa smiled slightly, she pursed her lips, her green eyes looked at the sea outside the balcony, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, she said:
"But if Sannomiya dares to interfere in my child's life again, I will fight it hard."
"Well, that sounds like something a mother would say."
Merlin turned his head and kissed Elsa's cold forehead, and said:
"You'll make a good mother."
Elsa blinked her eyes. She wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end. She closed her eyes and leaned on Merlin's shoulder, enjoying the hard-won reunion.
Moments later, the wedding begins.
The jazz on the roof of the villa used his newly installed audio equipment to play a cheerful wedding march.
With flicks of Merlin's fingers, petals fluttered in the hall and balcony of the villa. Charlie was wearing a wedding dress and holding a bouquet of flowers. On the red carpet in front of her, Little Peter walked forward with a basket of flowers. Behind her, the stern-faced Laura dutifully held the long tail of the wedding dress for Charlie.
Charlie's father, um, should be said to be his stepfather. He is actually a very kind middle-aged man. He treats Charlie very well. The young man has always regarded Charlie as his own.
Today, with tears in his eyes, he sent his daughter to the wedding hall just like a real father.
On the balcony, in the warm, refracted very beautiful sunlight, Eric looked at his bride. The two of them met because they met in Merlin's house, and then they supported each other, experienced various events in each other's lives, and finally Come together.
That beautiful girl still has his child in her womb, which will be the most beautiful crystallization of their love.
On both sides of the stage, the groomsmen and bridesmaids were also full of joy, Matt and Ava stood together, T'Challa and Ororo stood together.
Damian moved furtively, and stood next to Ruiwen quietly. Ruiwen seemed to want to move away, but in the end she didn't move her body.
"Damn brat!"
Merlin narrowed his eyes and stared at Damian fiercely, but Elsa held his wrist, and Elsa said softly:
"Ruiwen will make a choice, you have to trust her, Merlin, and stop interfering in her life."
"All right."
Merlin straightened his face and said stubbornly:
"But no matter what, I wouldn't agree to this marriage, he and Raven are at risk together, and they are underage, God! Bruce and Thalia really need to take care of their son. "
"Well, if my Lorna and Laura are obedient, they won't make me so sad."
Mei and Ben were sitting next to Merlin, and the emotional Mei held her husband's hand tightly. While wiping her tears with a handkerchief, she whispered to Ben who was full of smiles.
Among the flowers flying in the sky, the bride and the bride stood together, looking at each other.
The jazz on the roof changed to a more soothing music according to the occasion. Paul, who was wearing a black robe, looked at the newlyweds in front of him. The old man with thinning hair also had emotions in his eyes.
He still remembered that when Merlin sent Eric to the St. Agnes Orphanage, Eric was still a naughty little guy, and he became the king of children in the orphanage, and secretly hid some things in the orphanage. In the garden of the orphanage.
The priest knows it all, but the priest doesn't say it.
He remembered that the child had a complicated background, and several foster families in succession had problems, but in the end he was adopted by Merlin, just like Merlin adopted other children.
Merlin should be a truly kind person. Although he always came to the church with many questions that the priest could not answer, the two had known each other for almost 20 years. Father Paul was unwilling to guess Merlin's true identity.
He knew that Merlin was a trustworthy friend.
Thinking of this, the old priest quietly glanced at Matt beside him, and the pale girl beside Matt.
Well, little Matt, who has been through a lot of hardships but never gave up hope, seems to have found his love.
That's great, Jack's spirit in heaven will feel at ease seeing this scene. Back then, he entrusted Matt to Merlin, which was indeed the right choice.
The old priest was a little emotional, he coughed lightly, looked at Eric and Charlie in front of him, and said:
"Everyone (I won't write about the Western-style wedding set here, so as not to say that I can't count the words.)"
"The bride and groom can exchange rings."
Amid Father Paul's blessed smile, Prince T'Challa handed a Wakanda-inspired vibranium ring embellished with luxurious jewels to Eric, who took a deep breath and held his wife's lap in his arms. Hand, put the ring on Charlie's hand.
Ororo beside Charlie also stretched out his hand, and handed another magic ruby ring ordered by Merlin in Diagon Alley to Charlie. Charlie looked at Eric, and then put the ring on Eric. hand.
"Now, the groom can kiss the bride."
Father Paul spread his hands, Eric took a step forward, and hugged Charlie tenderly. Their lips kissed together. The next moment, beautiful fireworks burst out from the coastline.
The happy bumblebee and the silent Horus waved their hands, their weapon ports filled with magical fireworks.
In the precise spray of the Cybertronian, those magical fireworks exploded in the air, forming the names of Eric and Charlie, and changing into the red heart symbolizing love.
This scene is extremely gorgeous.
All the groomsmen and bridesmaids, as well as a few people in the guest table, stood up, applauded, cheered, and congratulated the couple.
T'Challa and Ororo also kissed together, and their wedding was also on the agenda.
Damian wanted to take the opportunity to hold Ruiwen's hand, but was opened by Lorna who was beside Ruiwen. Lorna grabbed her sister's hand and snorted at Damian as if in demonstration.
This scene made Merlin very satisfied. Lorna really grew up and became sensible.
"Beautiful fireworks, Uncle Merlin, look, they are so beautiful!"
Little Peter ran to Merlin, grabbed his finger and pointed to the fireworks that were still firing in the air. The child quickly noticed Elsa standing next to Merlin. Elsa left when he was a child, so little Peter Very strange to this beautiful big sister.
But when he saw Elsa holding Merlin's arm, little Peter scratched his hair, and asked Elsa very politely:
"Hello, sister, are you uncle's girlfriend?"
"Yes, I am."
Elsa stretched out her hand and flicked the top of Little Peter's head, and the little guy hugged his head and screamed:
"Wow, it's so cold, my head is frozen."
"Hahaha"
Elsa looked at little Peter who was running away with her head in her arms. She laughed and leaned back, while Merlin sighed helplessly. He almost forgot that before becoming Miss Frost, Elsa was actually very lively and liked him very much. Just kidding girl.
"I said, how long will the charm given to you by Ms. Yennefer last?"
Merlin asked softly.
Elsa blinked her eyes, and she said in a strange tone:
"This talisman can't be taken off, why? Are you in such a hurry?"
"Where do you want to go?"
Merlin glared at Elsa, he stroked Elsa's long cold hair, and said:
"I mean, if there's enough time, we can have a meal. We haven't eaten together in a long time. Let's just treat it as a date."
"Okay, where are you going?"
Elsa says:
"Mick's Restaurant?"
"Yes, let's go there."
Merlin looked at the noisy balcony of the villa, he said softly:
"Maybe our wedding will be this lively in the future."
