Chapter 474 Wedding Record
May 16th is a big day. Both the Chen and Fang families have specially found someone to calculate. Not only should it be suitable for marriage, but it should also match the horoscopes of the newlyweds.
Choosing a good day for marriage is a traditional custom, not superstition. It is a blessing and expectation for a better future of the newlyweds. It is more of a psychological comfort. Anyway, any day is fine, why not choose one that everyone thinks is good?
This is just like going to a temple to worship Buddha. Whether you believe it or not, you won’t lose anything by worshipping. What you want is spiritual enjoyment.
Chen Yi didn’t sleep all night. He got up from the bed at four o’clock and quickly put on the groom’s suit. He prepared to drive to pick up Jiang Fanlei and Xu Can without eating.
“Happy wedding, Xiaoyi.”
Aunt Zhang sent her blessings, and then went back to her room to rest and recuperate. She needed to clean the house again today to ensure that it was clean and tidy when the guests came.
“Thank you, I’m leaving.”
Chen Yi left home and got in the car.
The newly created WeChat group has become lively. The bridesmaids sent videos and photos from the group, and Fang Shuyu was putting on makeup at home.
Wearing a red dress, noble and beautiful, from the video we can see that Lin Chen's relatives are all there, with smiles on their faces.
Unfortunately, the bridesmaid herself did not appear, which made Jiang Fanlei and Xu Can a little regretful. They could only watch it when they got there.
At four o'clock in the morning, Yangcheng had not yet fully awakened. It was pitch black, and there was a faint fish white in the distance, vaguely revealing the vitality of a new day.
The streets were empty, and occasionally passing vehicles raised exhaust gas, and the sound of wheels rolling echoed in the streets.
The street lights were still on, providing a faint light for early risers.
In the corners of the city, some breakfast stalls have begun to be occupied, and a bowl of porridge and a few fried dough sticks are their breakfast.
No morning exercisers were seen. The temperature difference has been large recently, and it is about the same at seven or eight o'clock.
Good days are shared by everyone. There should be quite a few newlyweds getting married today. Chen Yi can see some passing vehicles, and their rearview mirrors are hung with pink balloons, which symbolize happiness and joy.
While waiting for the red light, Chen Yi took out his mobile phone to receive the transfer from Jiang Fanlei and others.
The amount was too large to be convenient for red envelopes, so electronic payment was chosen.
In the circle of the second generation of the rich, the gift money would definitely not be 1,800 yuan. Apart from colleagues, the red envelopes received by Chen Yi were at least 6,666 yuan, the most common was 8,888 yuan, and the highest was 188,000 yuan.
188,000 yuan was given by Jiang Fanlei, and Xu Can gave 88,000 yuan.
The gift money is mutual. In the future, when Jiang Fanlei gets married, he will definitely give more than 200,000 yuan, and Xu Can will give more than 100,000 yuan.
The purpose of giving gifts is to express blessings and care, which has become an important bond of emotional connection between people in this country.
Of course, a large number of people are just for money. For example, a classmate who has not been in contact for a long time suddenly tells you that he is getting married, which is quite embarrassing.
Those who are too embarrassed to refuse will give 200 yuan as a token of their feelings, and those who are thick-skinned will choose not to see it directly, or even directly start to fight.
You don’t come to my wedding, but you let me go to your wedding. What’s the reason?
Chen Yi quickly picked up Jiang Fanlei and Xu Can, and then rushed to Fang’s house.
The groomsmen's suits were specially bought by the two of them. They were expensive. They were only worn today. They looked handsome, but their shiny hair looked exaggerated. Maybe they were not dry yet.
"Chen Yi, judging from the bridesmaid's voice, she should be good-looking, right?" Xu Can spoke first.
Without waiting for Chen Yi to speak, Jiang Fanlei immediately complained: "That's too much. You have a girlfriend!"
Xu Can turned his head and said: "Am I being too much or are you dirty? I'm just asking. You can't even look at it, right? I don't even have the right to look at it? It's a man's instinct to pursue beautiful things."
Jiang Fanlei: "Go home to see your girlfriend!"
Xu Can: "Your..."
He wanted to mention Zou Ying, but immediately realized that scolding people is not exposing their shortcomings. Chen Yi's wedding day can't make his brother sad, so he changed his words: "Okay, okay, it's all yours. Isn't the bridesmaid a forensic doctor?"
Jiang Fanlei's heart tightened, and he hurried to see Chen Yi, waiting for the other party's answer.
I almost forgot about this. He has a psychological barrier to forensic doctors. They can be friends but definitely not girlfriends! Chen Yi can hold him, but he doesn't have the ability to do so.
Chen Yi smiled and said, "Not a forensic doctor, but a college classmate. He looks... not bad."
Jiang Fanlei was relieved. As long as he wasn't a forensic doctor, it would be fine.
"I like silly people. I hope he's not too smart." He said.
Before they even met, Jiang Fanlei had already started to associate. I don't know if he was joking or really wanted to turn Chen Yi's wedding into his own blind date.
Chen Yi: "I don't know if he's smart or not, but I can still stab you more than a dozen times in the middle of the night and finally identify it as a minor injury."
Jiang Fanlei's hair stood up: "What the hell?"
Chen Yi said with a chuckle: "Doctor."
Jiang Fanlei said angrily: "A doctor is a doctor. Why are you talking so scary?"
Chen Yi: "Scary? I'm telling the truth."
Xu Can gloated on the side. Forensic doctors and doctors are actually similar. Anyway, they may have come into contact with corpses.
They boasted all the way and arrived at the Fang family.
The wedding convoy was already waiting. The relatives of the Fang family were all gathered outside to chat. Chen Yi didn't know many people, so he saw Lin Chen at first sight.
Lin Chen also saw him and quickly told his parents, and the family walked over quickly.
Chen Yi politely called him uncle and aunt, and it was not time to change his words.
Lin Chen's parents were even more polite, thanking Chen Yi for taking care of Lin Chen in the past two years, especially for the provincial department's research. They knew that Chen Yi helped a lot in this.
With this experience, Lin Chen has some shining points and more bragging rights. The future will be much brighter.
Except for the Lin family, everyone else came over to talk after seeing Chen Yi. Fang Songping had no son, so it was obvious who would be the pillar of the Fang family in the future.
The son-in-law’s world is over.
The main reason is that Chen Yi himself is very up to date. Ninety percent of his journey was based on his own efforts, and he almost lost his life.
It is said that the family members of first-class meritorious service members receive second-class meritorious service while lying down. The bonus of casualties to meritorious service is huge. This is already a common practice.
It would take several hours to pick up the bride. After chatting with everyone, Chen Yi found a place to sit down and wait for the flowers to bloom.
At about seven o'clock, Chen Yi, who had just finished smoking a cigarette, spotted Fang Yanjun with his peripheral vision. He was standing in an inconspicuous corner, chatting with several old men about his age.
Fang Yanjun also saw him and raised his hand to wave.
Chen Yi quickly stood up and walked over.
"Xiaoyi, let me introduce you."
Fang Yanjun smiled and introduced his friend to Chen Yi. He didn't say his name or what he did, only his last name.
Chen Yi could tell that he was definitely not an ordinary person. He was 70 or 80 years old but still upright and energetic, with sharp eyes. He must have had experience in the military.
Probably an old comrade.
Chen Yi wondered in his heart whether the earth would tremble if these old men stamped their feet.
Although he is retired, his connections are still there. Doesn’t Fang Yanjun have someone he calls his teacher, Gu Jingfeng? By the way, I haven't seen Gu Jingfeng yet, he is probably still sleeping.
Several old people looked at Chen Yi, and their scrutinizing eyes made Chen Yi somewhat uncomfortable. Soon their eyes softened, and they began to praise him whether politely or sincerely.
Chen Yi felt a little embarrassed at the end of the compliment. So I am so good?
"Xiao Yi, leave a phone number." An old man said.
He didn't ask Fang Yanjun for it, but asked Chen Yi directly face to face. He obviously had his own way of doing things.
Chen Yi immediately asked Fang Yanjun with his eyes, and then revealed his cell phone number.
"Young people's world is here now. You can get in touch with each other more." Fang Yanjun's words jumped and he needed to guess.
Chen Yi understood that he should be talking about the descendants of these old people.
This is how connections come from, friends of friends, friends of relatives, children and grandchildren of elders, all of them may know each other.
In a few decades, when Chen Yi's generation reaches the age of fifty or above, everything that needs to be changed will have changed, so it is still necessary to become friends in advance.
This is not only beneficial to others, but also beneficial to Chen Yi. Who knows what the future will bring.
Others think that Chen Yi has potential, and Chen Yi will also think that others have potential. With so many positions in a country as big as it is, there will always be a few top talents and guys with extraordinary backgrounds.
Fang Yanjun means to pave the way for himself. For those who are half buried in the loess, accidents will happen at any time.
The tea is cool when people leave.
Chen Yi accepted this kindness. Although they are not related by blood, now that they are married to Fang Shuyu, they will become a real family in the future.
He only left his phone number, and the other party took no further action after writing it down. Chen Yi guessed that there would be calls from strangers after the wedding.
Or, you will contact us only if you need help.
In fact, with his current status, he can't do much. There is no point in looking for him for things that no one with the background can solve, unless he is a private detective to catch a mistress and investigate her cheating. He is good at this and can find out in minutes.
As time went by, Fang Shuyu was almost ready, and the staff from the wedding company came over to remind the groom to come in.
The closing ceremony is a wedding custom. It was originally intended to express the woman's reluctance to leave home. Now it has developed into a part of the game, and the groom's family calls the door.
Chen Yi and Chen Yi had never been married and had no experience, but Jiang Fanlei and Xu Can seemed to have prepared strategies in advance, and the atmosphere was very successful. After a symbolic pull, they directly took out a thick red envelope and used the reason that they couldn't stuff it to deceive them. The bridesmaid opened the door a little, and before the red envelope was taken away, she quickly pushed the door open.
Under the leadership of Jiang Fanlei and Xu Can, Chen Yi easily overcame the difficulty of the closing ceremony.
"Well done, you have to praise me."
When she came to the room, Fang Shuyu sat quietly on the bed with a smile on her face. Her fiery red skirt spread out into a circle and was as light as clouds, like an exquisite scroll, with an indescribable solemnity.
The painting style quickly collapsed, and the bridesmaid began to "attack" the best man.
Chen Yi retreated silently, pretending to be transparent, and listened to the two people's "screams", mourning for Jiang Fanlei and Xu Can in his heart.
The two bridesmaids are indeed good-looking, especially after makeup, but they are still a notch behind Fang Shuyu. There is no embarrassment that the bridesmaids are more gorgeous than the bride.
It's an old game, but Jiang Fanlei's pain is not fake. Chen Yi can even see his twisted expression and bulging veins. On the other hand, Xu Can's character is much more stable than Jiang Fanlei's, and he is not as open-minded.
Man, you really work hard...
This scene is recorded, and when you want to see it in the future, you can take it out and have a look. It is also a sweet memory of the past.
There is a difference between marrying a daughter and marrying a wife. Fang Shuyu really left home, so Fang Songping and his wife were a little serious when they took the group photo. When Chen Yi took Fang Shuyu's hand and stepped out of the room, he looked back and saw Fang Songping wiping his tears. action.
A daughter is the treasure of his heart, and no father can hold back.
