The road is long, take it and cherish it

The three of them quickly left the mall and rushed towards the groom's home.

Looking at the urging messages on the phone again and again, Hou Yue was also a little embarrassed, and quickly replied: "I'll be there soon, I'll be there soon, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Just when Hou Yue was about to arrive downstairs in their community, his cell phone rang suddenly. He picked up the phone and saw that 662 was his mother's number. After he answered the call, he said: "Hello, mother."

On the phone, Hou Yue's mother He Yulan said slowly: "Yue, where are you now? It's almost eight o'clock. Your father and I will go back first. The party is over here. You can go directly to their home. , they will take you to the venue to rehearse. You finish rehearsing in the evening, and you don’t know what time it is. When the time comes, you give me a call and I will pick you up.”

Hou Yue said quickly: "Mom, I'll be there soon. You should go back first. I don't know what time it will end in the evening. It's time for you to rest when you go back. Get some rest. It's hard work for you to drive back. I Just take a taxi back."

The mother and son exchanged pleasantries for a few more words and hung up the phone.

At this time, Hou Shurou also slowly stopped the car on the roadside at the entrance of the destination community.

Hou Yue glanced outside, picked up his schoolbag, opened the car door and jumped out. He suddenly remembered that there was Wang Qianzhi. He turned back to look inside the car and said, "Well, sister, why don't you take her first?" Go home and settle down?"

Wang Qianzhi suddenly said: "Can I go with you? I am also very interested in the preparation and layout of the wedding. My work in the school is also in this area. Maybe I can help. .”

Hou Yue thought for a while, but before he could speak, Hou Shurou, who was in front of him, said first, "Then you all can go together. We'll come back together after the rehearsal. I'll also clean up when I get back."

Just like that, Hou Shurou drove away. Hou Yue and Wang Qianzhi looked at each other on the roadside. Hou Yue wanted to say something, but she saw Wang Qianzhi looking up at him with a silly smile.

Seeing her look like this, Hou Yue couldn't help but smile. This girl, he thought for a while and joked: "Why aren't you nervous now? She's back to normal."

Wang Qianzhi smiled and said, "I'm not nervous anymore. I'm not nervous anymore. This time it was too sudden. I'm not prepared. I won't be the same next time."

At this moment, Hou Yue's cell phone rang again. He answered the call. On the other end of the phone, a man's voice said: "Xiao Hou, I am your cousin. Have you arrived at the gate of our community? Are you We turned around and set off by ourselves in the car.”

Hou Yue turned around in confusion. There was a black car parked not far behind him. He quickly said: "It's me, it's me. I'll come over now." After saying that, Hou Yue habitually wanted to hold Wang Qianzhi's hand. But when his hand reached halfway, it froze in mid-air. He smiled awkwardly, retracted his hand and said, "Classmate Wang, the car is over there. Let's go there. The person in the car is tomorrow's groom."

Wang Qianzhi looked at Hou Yue's retracted hand and nodded with some disappointment. The two of them quickly arrived in front of the car not far away. Hou Yue opened the car door and said, "I'm sorry, I'm late. I'm late. This is a friend of mine in Shanghai who came here specially to attend your wedding. I don’t know, is it convenient?”

The middle-aged man in the driver's seat is tomorrow's groom, named Li Junwu.

He turned around and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. What are you talking about? You came all the way to help me. Of course you are welcome. Come on, come on. Don't be stunned, you two. Come up together. , the more people, the better.”

Hou Yue smiled and got into the car one after another with Wang Qianzhi.

At this time, there were originally three people in the car. Including Hou Yue and Wang Qianzhi, there were five people. Among them was the groom, the co-pilot and a bridesmaid, and the other best man and Hou Yue and Wang Qianzhi were sitting side by side behind them. .

After getting in the car, it was quiet for a moment. The groom said: "Xiao Hou, you are dressed so punk now that I don't even recognize you. It's different when you go to a big city. Speaking of which, you guys Are you two unfamiliar with each other? Why don't you two talk much?"

Hou Yue knew that he was referring to the other best man. He glanced at the other best man sitting next to him.

This man, who is about the same age as himself, is the son of his father's brother, and the two families have always lived next door to each other. Logically speaking, they should have a good relationship.

Unfortunately, his mother and his mother have always had conflicts, and the relationship between the two families has always been awkward, so there is basically no contact between them.

Hou Yue thought for a moment and said, "We're all familiar, we're all relatives, but I'm not very good at chatting."

Li Junwu then said: "That's right, by the way, there is one more thing. He asked the bridesmaid in the passenger seat and said, Xiaole, you just told me that the other bridesmaid has something to do temporarily. Don’t you want to come?”

Xiao Le in the co-pilot said: "Yes, she just sent me a message saying, what should I do, great director?"

Li Junwu said while driving: "I have carefully planned this grandest ceremony in my life. No accidents can happen. It's not too late to know now. I think about it and there should be a way to remedy it."

He pondered for a moment, and suddenly he looked up at the rearview mirror, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Xiao Hou, your friend, do you want to actually participate in my wedding? I I think she’s very suitable.”

Hou Yue looked at Wang Qianzhi after hearing this, and said, "Well, classmate Wang, do you want to be a bridesmaid? It should be fun."

Wang Qianzhi's eyes shone, and she nodded quickly: "I do! Feeling that she was a little too complacent, Wang Qianzhi added in a low voice, I can give it a try, but I'm afraid that some of my seats are not good enough."

Li Junwu laughed and said: "No, no, you just come here to play. I will get a big red envelope for each of you after it is over. By the way, let's talk about it first. You are all mine. Tomorrow When it comes to picking up the bride, you have to be merciful, that’s pretty much it.”

Several people in the car laughed when they heard this, "It's hard to talk about this matter."

It didn't take long for a few people to arrive at the main venue for tomorrow's wedding. The main venue is located on the second floor of a well-known hotel in the city center. They dragged their suitcases and packed their bags to the venue.

At this time, several people in the venue were busy setting up the stage for tomorrow.

Seeing them arriving, they walked towards them. A very energetic man, wearing an exquisite suit and dress with a smile, came to Li Junwu and said: "Groom, you are just in time. Come here, let's go first." Let’s select the music to be used in each time period for tomorrow’s wedding, as well as some subsequent processes, and we will rehearse them in advance.”

As he said that, he pulled Li Junwu to sit down in front of the laptop and started to choose music.

Seeing that she had nothing to do for a short time, Hou Yue walked around the venue curiously, and Wang Qianzhi followed him quietly. She was thoughtful but did not speak.

The two people walked around the venue, Hou Yue found a chair and sat down, and Wang Qianzhi also sat down next to him.

After a while, the music on their side was basically selected. Li Junwu and the host came to the stage that had not been completely set up, and at the same time called Hou Yue and the four of them.

They simply chose one of the several plans they had prepared in advance that they were satisfied with.

In the first step, the groom comes on stage first and speaks. Hou Yue steps forward to hand over the microphone. After the groom finishes speaking, Hou Yue steps forward to take back the microphone, and then the bride comes on stage.

The bride will appear in a small booth at the other end of the stage.

At that time, the bridesmaid needs to add water to the dry ice in the small pavilion to create a stage effect of a fairy descending to earth.

Then, the bride walked out slowly, and the two bridesmaids slowly followed her, slowly scattering flower petals, and then the groom and the bride slowly walked toward the center of the stage together.

We walked to the center and met, and then the best man 1 came to the stage and handed it to the bridesmaid 1. The bridesmaid 1 gave a red hydrangea to the groom and the bride. The bride and groom each took one end of it. Then the best man 2 brought a red plate and handed it to the bridesmaid 2. The red plate There is a pair of red scissors and a red brocade bag on the top. After that, the bridesmaid needs to hand the red scissors to the groom, cut off the red hydrangea, and give the red hydrangea to bridesmaid 1. Bridesmaid 1 will give the hydrangea to the groomsman under the stage. In one session, the two newlyweds cut each other's strands of silk (hair) and put them into the brocade bag. Then they each took one end and tied it tightly. Then, the two newlyweds put the brocade bag back on the red plate, and the bridesmaid 2 gave it to The best man 2 off the stage, and then the two bridesmaids also exited first, leaving only the two newcomers on the stage.

Then the music starts, and it’s time for the husband and wife to pray together. At that time, when the host says the prayers, they pray together, and when they talk about it, they pray together. Don’t be anxious, and try to stay in sync. Then, after the prayers are finished, we go to the next link. , the two newcomers walked to the front of the stage together, holding each other's hands.

When you arrive in front of the stage, your parents will sit on both sides of the stage. Then it’s time to toast each other’s parents and change their names.

At this time, bridesmaid 1 needs to go on stage and help the bride and groom carry the plates with wine glasses, starting from the groom's side, and then to the bride's side.

After it was over, the bridesmaid came off the stage with wine glasses and other things. Then, the second bridesmaid came to the stage with embroidery and handed it to the bride and groom. Then the bridesmaid came off the stage, and the bridegroom and the bride took the hydrangea with their backs to the audience and threw the embroidery backwards.

Then, the two bridesmaids came behind them as quickly as possible with flower baskets containing some wedding candies. The two newlyweds walked back along the stage, scattering them in all directions as they walked, and then walked all the way to the end and got off the stage. , this part is over.

Listening to the host's eloquent words, several people nodded one after another and went through it in their minds. The things they need to do tomorrow don't feel very complicated.

After that, the group simply rehearsed twice on the stage and it was almost done. The groom would then have to find the sound engineer.

The group of people left one after another. Li Junwu had originally invited the best man, and the bridesmaid could sleep directly at his house tonight. There was an extra room, because the best man and bridesmaid would be in their respective places at 06:30 tomorrow morning.

However, everyone said that they had their own things to do and would arrive on time tomorrow morning, so they left separately.

Hou Yue took Wang Qianzhi and took a taxi on the side of the road. After the two got in the car, Wang Qianzhi seemed to want to speak but kept silent.

Hou Yue didn't notice this, and just like that, they were silent all the way. Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the door of Hou Yue's house.

Hou Yue got out of the car, stretched, and looked at the familiar door of her home. Home was better. No matter what happened outside, you could always come back here.

He reached out and touched the side of the flower bed. Soon, he took out a key, pressed it lightly, and the door slowly opened.

Hou Yue stepped in. When he turned around, he found that Wang Qianzhi behind him had not followed. He turned around and asked, "Classmate Wang, what's wrong with you? You're home, come in."

Wang Qianzhi at the door hesitated again and again, but she still silently followed in and came to Hou Yue's side. She couldn't help but said softly: "Well, Hou Yue, I want to ask, are your parents upstairs? ?”

Hou Yue was stunned for a moment, then he chuckled and said: "No, what are you thinking about in your little mind? My parents are not wild beasts, you don't have to be so nervous, what's more, we are just friends, you come to our house as a guest, stay here It's just one night," his voice became softer as he spoke, and Hou Yue became a little nervous later on.

The two people looked at each other, and were in a dilemma for a while.

After a while, Hou Yue made up his mind. With a sudden change of heart, he pulled Wang Qian and walked upstairs. Looking at it, he thought they were going to the battlefield together.

When we got to the third floor, Hou Yue's sister and parents had already been sitting in the room waiting for Hou Yue and the two. They had already known that they were back when the door opened downstairs just now.

Hou Yue looked at them, smiled awkwardly and said, "Mom and dad are so late, haven't you slept yet?" After saying that, Hou Yue came back to her senses, quickly let go of Wang Qianzhi's arm, and rubbed her hands awkwardly. .

His mother smiled kindly and said, "Oh, aren't we waiting for you to come back? I heard your sister said that you brought a girlfriend back this time?"

Hou Yue blushed, and he quickly explained: "No, no, just ordinary friends. Don't make random guesses about things that don't happen."

Hahaha, He Yulan smiled and said: "Okay, okay, friend or not, let her come in and sit down, and we can chat."

Hou Yue turned around and glanced at Wang Qianzhi, who wanted to bury her head in the ground. Hou Yue turned around and said, "No, Mom, we took the high-speed train and rehearsed today. We are exhausted. We have to get up early tomorrow. Let’s take a shower and go back to bed first. By the way, my little room should be tidied up.”

Hou Shurou on the side smiled and said, "It's ready."

Hou Yue nodded quickly and said: "Okay, okay, classmate Wang, come up with me. You sleep in my room tonight and I sleep in the small room. You can use my sister's towel for bathing." He said that he didn't care about other Sanqi. At 21, the two of them ran upstairs as if running for their lives.

Seeing this, Hou Yue's parents and sister looked at each other and smiled.

After Hou Yue arrived upstairs and settled Wang Qianzhi, she ran to the small room, turned on the light, closed the door, and locked it all at once.

Hou Yue took off her coat and lay on the bed, closing her eyes to relax and not think about the messy things in her mind.

After a while, Hou Yue heard the footsteps of someone going upstairs, and his heart suddenly picked up again.

After a while, he heard the old sister's voice, and he could vaguely hear them talking about towels and clothes, but he couldn't hear clearly.

After a while, Hou Yue heard the footsteps going downstairs again, gradually getting further away.

A few minutes later, Wang Qianzhi's voice suddenly came from outside the house. She whispered: "Well, Hou Yue, do you want to take a shower first?"

Hou Yue walked to the door and whispered through the door: "I'll wash it later, you wash it first, wash it and go to bed early."

"Yes," Wang Qianzhi replied softly.

A moment later, Hou Yue heard the sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom outside the room very clearly.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and many indescribable images appeared in his mind at that moment. He patted his face gently, tremblingly took out his headphones, put them on and turned on the music to get rid of distracting thoughts...

Not long after listening, Hou Yue closed her eyes, tilted her head, and fell asleep without turning off the lights in the room.

Too many messy things happened today and he was really tired.
