The wedding took place when Zhenghai returned to China during the summer vacation.

Not long after dawn, the sweltering heat was transpiring with the scorching sun.While Zhenghai and Huanzhu were best men and women, they were also the protagonists of today's engagement.In such hot weather, although Lan Xin and Huanzhu were wearing floor-sweeping dresses, their necks and arms were still exposed, while Zhaoshi and Zhenghai were sweating under the multiple wrappings of shirts and dresses, and they were in a panic.

Fortunately, Western-style weddings are simple, and the ceremony is over after a few words of praise from the master of ceremonies.The western band played its exit tune under the shade of the sycamore tree, and a group of guests meandered back to the mansion as if they were fleeing with the newlyweds.The room was air-conditioned, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they entered.

The bulky furniture in the large living room on the first floor has been removed, and Buffet is placed in the dining room, specially invited the chef from Fuhua Western Cuisine Club to make it.Both Zhaoshi and Lan Xin had studied in Fudan University, and many of their former classmates came here, as well as many friends from Zhenghai and Huanzhu Middle School.Young people danced to the music of the phonograph.Four round tables were set up in the living room on the second floor, and the cook at home also made a banquet table to entertain the elderly and children from their hometown in Ningbo. They also set aside two guest rooms as a mahjong room. Zhaoquan and Mrs. Sun helped to accompany the guests.

In the corridors of the two floors, there are paintings and calligraphy by Bing Lanxin, the children of Shen's family, and there are also guests who are good at paintings, looking at them one by one and commenting on them one by one.The bride, Lan Xin, drank two glasses of cocktails, her face flushed a little. She had already taken off her long-tailed wedding dress and changed into a champagne-colored lace dress. Put roses next to your favorite creations for a nice touch.After dancing an opening dance with Lan Xin, Zhao Shi held a glass of wine and chatted with the guests, watching Lan Xin tossing from a distance.

Someone from the concierge came to look for Zhaoshi, thinking that some distinguished guest had arrived, so Zhaoshi greeted him in three steps at a time.

Yan Ming was wearing a smoky gray bamboo cloth gown and was standing in the hall with a straw hat on. When he saw Zhaoshi coming out in a shining dress, he punched him in the chest, "Hey, what a little Kai on the beach, Look at the appearance of this greasy head and powder noodles, I can hardly recognize it!" Zhaoshi hugged the former instructor, a little excited and wanted to cry, he sent the invitation to Longquan Temple, but he also knew that Yan Ming was a practitioner now, so he didn't hold him. The hope of what can come, is really overjoyed now. "Instructor, since you're here, you have to stay in Shanghai for a few more days before going back!" Yan Ming patted the back of his head, "You brat who wants to make progress!"

The two entered the door talking and laughing, Zhaoshi turned his head and saw Lianzhou and Anan sitting on the steps in front of the door talking something, Lianzhou's eyes were shining brightly. "Lian Zhou, the new dress is just sitting on the floor like this! Your mother is going to talk about you when she sees it." Lian Zhou turned her head and squeezed her eyes and said, "Second uncle, my mother's thoughts are on you, so I don't have time to talk about it." I."

The groom didn't have much time to chat with the long-lost instructor. Chen Xiangfan and Cheng Nan were among the guests. When they saw Yan Ming, they immediately snatched him away like a wind.

The three soldiers leaned against the railing of the stairs to see Zhao Shi politely greeting the guests, watching Lan Xin chatting with her father's American friend in English, watching Jing Xian's demeanor and Wan Fang's long sleeves dancing, Yan Ming pinched the cigarette in his hand, and sighed: "Oh Well, Zhao Shi, a foolish boy, was cast in the wrong womb or entered the wrong line of business. Such a character and family background must be working hard with us, what is he trying to do?" Chen Xiangfan sneered: "What is it? The country is rich and the people are strong! Isn’t this taught by you military academy instructors? This foolish boy told me the magic weapon of the National Revolutionary Army’s victory, because they are a patriotic army, not someone’s private soldiers. Dare you say, Isn’t the current revolutionary army’s surname Jiang?” Cheng Nan had no choice but to smooth things over: “It’s a very happy day, it’s unlucky, it’s unlucky!”

The roses for the calligraphy and painting works have been inserted, so naturally Huanzhu won the first prize, Lan Xin smiled and hugged Huanzhu's shoulders, kissed her forehead, and gave her her bouquet of flowers, wishing her and Zhenghai an early wedding , a happy marriage for a hundred years.

The noisy wedding passed, and in the evening, the guests gradually dispersed.Jingxian stayed with Zhaoquan's family for a few days, and Zhaoshi also stayed with Yan Ming.Jingxian has been busy with the wedding for several months, her eyes can't hide the tiredness, but it doesn't affect her waist and back in such a day.Speaking of which, there has been no such happy event in the Shen mansion for nearly 20 years.The last time was the wedding of Jingxian and Shen Zhaosong.

Jingxian didn't even remember what happened that day, but she only remembered her mother crying when she combed her hair before leaving home, and then it was all red.She hid in the red veil and got into the wedding sedan chair, and was supported on the bed with red curtains. She was hungry, and she was waiting for his elder brother Zhaosong to come to rescue her.However, when he lifted the hijab, he had been thinking about his elder brother for a long time, with a layer of mist in his eyes, he didn't ask her if she was thirsty or hungry, and fell asleep on the bed.

She knew that Lan Xin was actually the same as herself. She fell in love with a man who didn't love her like a moth to a flame.

In fact, Lan Xin's bridal night was indeed better than Jing Xian's.After Zhao Shi had a few drinks with his brother-in-law and the instructor, he was rushed back to the room by the two of them. Lan Xin also drank a few glasses of red wine herself and sat by the bed waiting.It was not the first night for the two of them to be together, the last time it had the effect of the medicine, this time it was the strength of the wine, and it could be regarded as barely completing the bridal chamber.Lying on Zhaoshi's chest, Lan Xin listened to his heart beating powerfully, and said softly: "I fell in love with you the first time I saw you, do you know? Later when I saw you with that movie actor, I felt very sad. Sad. Originally, I thought I could forget you if you left Shanghai, but everything was in vain. You came back from the military academy, and you are even more attractive. I will do anything to get a man. I am also proud, you know, Zhao Shi."

Zhaoshi felt that his marriage was like a big dream. Someone plotted against him and the Shen family. He had to compromise in marriage for the sake of his family. He hated such a compromise in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.He turned over and said lightly: "Go to sleep, there are still many things to do tomorrow."

In the early morning of the next day, Zhaoshi really changed into a long gown, and Lan Xin also put on the red jacket and skirt, and kowtowed to the ancestral hall with her family.Lan Xin didn't believe in those clay sculptures at all, she felt that she could kneel here three times and kowtow nine times, all for the sake of Zhaoshi, for this beloved person, and to do it together with herself.

Jingxian watched from the sidelines with tears streaming down her cheeks. The child she brought up is now married, and she is finally worthy of her parents-in-law who treat her like her own. A major event in life has come to an end.Just when Jingxian lowered her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, Zhaoshi came over, held her hand, and asked her to sit on the chair in the ancestral hall, and then pulled Lan Xin to kneel down together, "On the wedding day, you must bow down to the high hall. Unfortunately, Zhaoshi's parents died early, and he was raised by his sister-in-law, so he deserves this gift from our husband and wife." After saying that, he kowtowed deeply and repeated three times.

Jingxian couldn't restrain herself anymore at this time, she bit her lip and tried her best not to cry out, but the tears couldn't stop flowing down.She tugged at Zhaoshi, but couldn't say a word, she could only nod her head, and then said, "Good boy, good boy.
