Translated by Zhang Baotong (novel), 2017.1.15
However, on the morning of the wedding, Goudan sent a car to pick up our family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The car looks very noble and high-end. When I saw it, it was a Porsche 918. I was taken aback, because the price of this car in China is at least 13 million yuan. And for us ordinary people, it is very good to be able to buy a car for 300,000 or 500,000 yuan. And my car is a Toyota off-road luxury AT, and it is only more than 400,000. For those of us who own cars, luxury cars show not the car itself, but the precipitation of the brand and the value brought by the car itself, that is to say, the brand of the car itself represents a person's worth.
So, I asked the driver whose car it was. The driver said that this car belonged to Mr. Yan. I asked Yan who is always it. He said that our Yan Zong is called Yan Baolong. I think this name is so familiar? It's the same surname as me. After thinking about it for a while, I remembered that the dog's real name was Yan Baolong. Because he has always called him a dog since he was a child, over time, he forgot his real name. However, how could he have such an expensive car? And how could he become the president of Yan as an idle second-rate kid in a dance hall? Of course, I can't just ask this question casually.
The wedding was held at the Shangri-La Hotel. There are thousands of colorful balloons piled up on the wedding table, on the passage leading to the wedding table, forty or fifty arches are set up, an arch is a blessing, both sides of the passage are covered with bright red roses, the hall is full of colorful ribbons, tidbits are pieced, there are nearly 100 tables of banquets in the huge banquet hall, and there are not thousands of guests attending the wedding, at least seven or eight hundred people. This kind of lavish spectacle can only be seen in Hollywood blockbusters. I heard that not counting the cost of the banquet, the cost of venue rental and wedding alone exceeded more than 1 million. Not to mention anything else, the cigarette candy on the table makes people marvel and be amazed at a glance. On the dining table are tobacco, alcohol, candy and peanuts and melon seeds. Place the peanuts and melon seeds on two small plates. From the torn package, you can see that it is written in Japanese and English. Peanuts are small peanuts from Japan, and melon seeds are sunflower seeds from Brazil. The small peanuts taste very fragrant and crispy, and the melon seeds have a fragrant taste. There is a pack of cigarettes on each plate, the brand name is Zhenlong (Shengshi), this kind of cigarette I have only heard of, and I have never seen it, according to some people, this cigarette costs more than 1,600 yuan. The wine is Feitian Moutai, about 1,800 yuan a bottle. The red wine is Hennessy XO, which may cost 1,300 yuan a bottle, and the beer is a five-barrel canned American Budweiser. I have drunk all of these wines in the past, and they are considered to be world-famous high-end wines. The candy comes in a small box per person and is a super dream imported from the United States. As for how much a box is, no one can say no. Someone roughly estimated that these cigarettes, alcohol and candy on the table alone would cost more than 6,000 yuan.
Since we were his only relatives and relative, we were placed at the guest of honor near the wedding table. While munching on melon seeds, I watched the big screen in the background constantly show the image of the bride and groom wearing various costumes and getting close to each other in different backgrounds. The groom is young and handsome, with a dignified appearance, as if he were a noble prince with a good demeanor. I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, when did this dog change and become a master? And the bride looked a little old-fashioned, at least thirty-six or seventeen years old, but her appearance was quite beautiful, and her temperament was not bad. Someone told his wife that Mr. Wu's husband was the president of Shaanxi Shenghua Real Estate Co., Ltd., and he was worth at least 3.5 billion. But the year before last, he died of liver cancer. After her husband passed away, Mr. Wu was in a very bad mood, and someone introduced Mr. Yan to Mr. Wu. Because Mr. Wu likes to sing and dance. And Mr. Yan happened to be a master in this area, and as a result, the two fell in love with each other while singing and dancing.
The wedding began, and the hosts were called Xu Lingzhuang and Wang Limin, who were famous hosts in the "Literature and Art Weekly" column of Shaanxi TV Station. In the warm applause of the people, the groom dog Dan, it should be said that Mr. Yan took the bride's hand and slowly walked into the wedding stage from the aisle covered with rose petals, and the two twin sisters pulled up the bride's skirt in the back. When the groom explained how he fell in love with the bride, the bride couldn't help but put her arms around the groom's neck and kissed him affectionately. From this detail, I dare to conclude that at first it must have been Mr. Wu who chased the dog first. Because the dog just happens to have an appearance, he has to be tall and have a head, and he has a good appearance in appearance, and he is in his youth and is in his prime. But there's just no ink in my stomach. If you take off this beautiful suit and dress again, I'm afraid you will be an idle bastard with no skills. It's just that this Mr. Wu is too eyeless.
Then, a deputy mayor of the city took the stage to congratulate the two newcomers. This caused quite a stir at the wedding scene. Because it is not a trivial matter for the deputy mayor to cheer and speak for them. Because the leaders of government departments generally do not go in and out of this kind of occasion casually, let alone speak at other people's weddings.
Towards the end of the wedding, the host asks the groom to sing a love song to express his deep love for the bride. So, the bridegroom sang a song "In That Far Away Place" generously. After listening to this song, I was shocked, not to mention that this dog is really not an idle person. The song sings so well, it's like a professional singer. Then, at the invitation of the people, the bride and groom danced to the tune of "Friendship Lasts Forever". It was the most beautiful dance I've ever seen. It can be said that this song and dance of Goudan completely changed my entire impression of him. I even admired him in my heart. When the groom took the bride's hand and came down from the wedding stage, my son came out of the table and ran over to hold the groom's hand tightly, saying, "Cousin, you are amazing!
At the end of the wedding, the guests tasted wine, ate big dishes, and praised and said, "Today's wedding is really luxurious and grand." Even when you walk out of the hotel, you can hear people's admiration: "Today is really an eye-opener and a sight to see the world." Of course, I feel the same way, but I always think in my heart: the gift for the dog today is really too little, only 1,000 yuan. Because I think I should at least go with 3000 or 5000, which makes me lose face in front of the dog. However, there is no other way.
Driving on the road, I said that the boy Goudan, who has not been doing his job properly since he was a child, did not take the right path, but the blind cat bumped into a dead mouse and married a rich woman. It's a good fate. However, my son retorted to me, "My cousin doesn't mean that he doesn't do his job properly and doesn't follow the right path, but that he has lofty aspirations and lofty ideals." The wife reprimanded her son, saying, "He couldn't go to school after a few days in junior high school, can this be called lofty ambitions and lofty ideals?" The son disagreed, saying, "How many days did Edison go to school? How much culture did Gorky have? Didn't Bill Gates also drop out of school in his junior year? Although my cousin didn't go to much school, they learned by doing, or you see how well they sang and danced, and I was so envious. ”
Our son's words left us speechless.
