Chapter 27: A Wedding Twist (Change)

Mai Ke took Xiao Qi's hand and went to the main deck of the central command ship, which was already overcrowded.

Most of them stood, with only a hundred chairs in the middle, for those who were either of high morals or of advanced age.

The little guy who was not afraid of the sky and the earth was a little nervous at this time, Mai Ke patted his head and told him that it was okay, just look at it.

He arranged for Xiao Yi to sit in the second row.

Xiao Qi grabbed Mai Ke and told him that the broken bowl and the big money he sent were tokens of the beggar gang, and if he took out either of those two things, he could ask the beggar gang for help.

Since the establishment of the Southern Beggars Gang, these two tokens have not been given to outsiders.

All the beggars south of the Yangtze River have reached, and these two tokens are very effective.

As for the north of the Yangtze River, those beggars were attached to the Manchu Qing Dynasty and were no longer real beggars, so the old gang leader established the Southern Beggars Gang, indicating that he was inseparable from them.

At this moment, the officer who presided over the wedding came over.

On this occasion he was also wearing a military uniform, also a three-star.

Peter told McKe that this guy was the chief of staff of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and was a typical hawk.

Although his influence is not very great yet.

As for the original Peter, he was also a hawk, but his position was relatively moderate, and he could be positioned as a moderate hawk.

This position will be a challenge for Peter in the future, because he is very friendly to China from the bottom of his heart. is not only Mai Ke's relationship, but also because of his wife.

He walked up to Mai Ke and said to Mai Ke, who was still chatting with a beggar-looking half-grown child, "Hello, I'm McMahon, please get to know the man's parents, the wedding will start soon." ”

Seeing the Yankees' disdainful eyes. Xiao Qi replied to him with a doubly disdainful, and said to Mai Ke: "You go and get busy, I'll go outside." ”

Mai Ke knew that he wanted to dodge, so as not to lose Mai Ke's face.

He said, "Just sit here and don't move! I'll go and finish my business first, and I'll get back to you and get down to business." ”

Mai Ke came to the man's family seat and sat down. The woman's parent who was already sitting next to him was Meng Baxi.

Although he was dressed as a gentleman today, wearing a robe and a horse coat and a silk embroidered melon skin hat, he could not hide his reckless and heroic nature.

He was sitting bored, and when he saw an acquaintance coming, he stood up and laughed and went to greet Mai Ke. Halfway through the laugh, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and I held back the second half of my laughter. The butt that had just been lifted also sat back.

Seeing this, Mai Ke waved his hand at him, said "congratulations", and sat down next to him.

Meng Baxi came over with his ears in his ear, and said in a somewhat frightened voice, "It's the first time I've seen a Western-style wedding, and you'll have to tell me how to deal with it in a while! It's too embarrassing to lose face in front of so many people." ”

Mai Ke comforted him and said, "It's okay!" Don't talk, don't move. That's it.

But before they could sit down, McMahon said to them, "You can't sit down yet, but you have to bring out the bride and groom and hand them over to each other, so that it is none of your business." ”

It turned out that Mai Ke had experienced such a thing for the first time.

I thought there was nothing wrong with him.

It was midnight in the morning. The celebrant announced the official start of the wedding.

The curtain behind the rostrum slowly opened, revealing rows of military bands in white sailors' uniforms behind them.

There are twelve rows of twenty people in each row, divided into left and right sides. There are six pianos neatly arranged in the middle, a long distance apart.

The curtain is fully open. With his back to the audience, the conductor's baton waved from top to bottom and then from left to right, and the image of a cross flashed quickly and clearly, and all the instruments played in unison, the sound was grand and harmonious.

Only listen to the sound of the piano and the roar of the trombone.

McMahon closed his eyes and listened.

He had heard this wedding march countless times, but when he heard it again in a foreign country, he was still emotionally disturbed, especially because he felt that it had extraordinary significance.

At this time, the side doors on the left and right slowly opened.

What came out on the left was today's bride Meng Ruofei, wearing a snow-white wedding dress on her body, like a fairy falling from nine heavens to mortal dust.

She took her father's arm by the crook of her hand, seemingly reluctantly.

But looking at the slightly upturned corners of her mouth and her eyebrows full of joy, betrayed her true mood.

Dad strode in front of him, and suddenly won the victory and returned to the general.

But looking at his constant loss of beat, you can know that he is excited and flustered.

Accompanying the bride are four young women who are as beautiful as flowers, all smiling shyly, and their waists are gently swaying, like lilies setting off today's peonies.

These bridesmaids were found by Ning Ningrui from among her uncles and sisters in her own family, and if it weren't for her own shyness, she really wanted to do it herself.

The bridegroom Peter came out on the right.

is still that majestic and majestic, just because people are happy and more heroic than usual.

Even on this occasion, it is still indomitable.

The hearts of the bridesmaids who peeked at the peek shook and almost lost.

In front of Peter, the one who pretended to be a parent was naturally Mai Ke.

Although Mai Ke is not the protagonist today, it is strange that he is too handsome, and he is still a bit noisy.

He's a little weird.

If you like the tough guy type, his face is full of hard lines, making you feel that he is invincible.

If you like gentle and handsome guys, his white and red complexion and fatal attractive eyes will make you look at it and be deeply attracted, and if you look at it more, you will fall into it and find it difficult to extricate yourself.

So, the bridesmaids who were attracted to Peter quickly shifted their focus and were attracted to the guy who was supposed to be a middle-aged uncle.

The four men who accompanied the bridegroom were members of Peter's navy, all of whom were members of the guard of honor.

All of them are tall and well-proportioned, with positive foreheads and two eyes, except that the spirit is not as good as Peter's, and the material conditions are not worse than Peter's.

Two golden boys and girls aged about ten years led the way, and the flower baskets in their hands were full of blooming flowers.

They came to stand before the priest who was witnessing the marriage.

A group of twelve sisters gathered lightly from both sides to the center, representing Pastor Leung Fat's house church, blessed the couples.

The lyrics of joy and praise, like a mountain stream, gurgle and flow softly in everyone's heart.

Step by step. The Lord leads the way to marriage

Have faith, love, and be filled with eternal hope for the Lord to please you

When you step on that red carpet, may the Lord bless this wedding

Let the bride and the bridegroom be in the presence of all, and the two will be one flesh, and will never be separated

Fresh every day. Love finally has a home, so sweet

Your heart, my heart, is connected to the sincerity of your love forever

When you step on that red carpet, may the Lord bless this wedding

Let the bride and the bridegroom be in the presence of all, and the two will be one flesh, and will never be separated

The marriage was witnessed by Pastor Liang Fa and the chief military pastor of the U.S. military. Liang Fa to the bride and Junmu to Peter, in Chinese and English, respectively. This was Mai Ke's idea. Although the bride does not speak English, Peter's Chinese is more than enough to cope with this. The reason why Mai Ke insisted on using two languages. It is because marriage is God's grace and blessing, not only a private matter of the parties, but only provides legal procedures for marriage, and it is also a sign in front of everyone that the parties are determined to do according to God's will for marriage, and also to show this testimony to everyone.

After the pastor finished asking the question, the two of them expressed their willingness to be one body, to share weal and woe for the rest of their lives. Stood. The audience erupted in warm applause and cheers.

All the members of the band, all the guests from the U.S. Navy. Representatives from the local church once again sang hymns to the newlyweds with their best wishes.

Today, everyone gathers and rejoices/Wedding according to the Lord's decree/The bride and groom become one/One family, one heart

From now on, we will walk together all the way / Respect and believe in each other, love and help each other / Heavenly Father takes care of the main light / The body and spirit are healthy and the descendants are virtuous

Pray for Heavenly Father's blessing / Husband and wife receive grace together / Felt by the Holy Spirit to love the Savior / I devote myself to serving Heavenly Father

May my heavenly Father grant me prayer / That he and his wife may grow old together / Happiness and sorrow / Rejoice forever as heaven

As soon as the chanting stops, the pastor announces the end of the service.

At this time, Mai Ke jumped out again and said that there was a small gift for a couple.

The host frowned when he heard this, and he had the heart to stop it, but he didn't have the courage to do so.

He knew that Peter, his boss, was very close to this nasty fellow. It's almost to the point of being obedient.

So his lips moved, but he still had to keep his mouth shut and endure.

It turned out to be three other members of the Fellowship of One Heart, including Gavin, Methodist, and Luther. As soon as he heard that Peter was getting married, he was eager to come and participate, so that he could talk about their experiences after separation.

Although Mai Ke specially used this remote vehicle to make group calls, he thought that it was not time to get together, so he stopped them from coming.

Later, I decided to neutralize it and sing a hymn with Mai Ke and give it to the newlyweds.

What to sing?

After much deliberation, they finally agreed to sing their own love poem, which is called the most beautiful love poem in the world.

Mai Ke stood in front of Peter and Ruofei on the spot, "As brothers, we don't have any special gifts for you, and now I and the other three brothers give you the poem we made ourselves, and the lyrics are our wishes! If Ruofei doesn't know who they are, go back and ask Peter." ”

Then Mai Ke turned on the transporter, and an aria sung in a tenor was delivered to the listener's ear from an invisible place.

One source, the same root, one person, never divided!

Then each of the four said a sentence, repeating it in a tone from low to high.

One source, the same root, one person, never divided!

Then the four sang in unison.

One source, the same root, one person, never divided!

Eventually, the instruments and all the members of the military band were added to form a huge harmony.

One source, the same root, one person, never divided!

Peter burst into tears, and the bride threw herself into Peter's arms, trembling and hugging him tightly.

This touching scene deeply affected everyone, and even the host forgot to ask how the sound effect was made.

Under Mai Ke's reminder, he remembered his duty and announced loudly that the ceremony was over.

As soon as the words fell, a loud rumbling sound sounded outside the port, which turned out to be the salute of the American fleet, firing twelve rings, celebrating the presence of his commander and wife.

The mixed fleet over there was not as neat as the roar of the salute, but it was more lively, with gongs and drums, firecrackers, lion dances and dragons, all kinds of tricks, and whatever could express their celebration of the wedding of the fleet manager, they did anything.

Watching the ceremony just now, watching them come and go, I want to express myself, but I can't take my turn, and I have to keep quiet.

Now it's finally our turn.

Those people along the port also expressed their congratulations in their own way, how to have fun and how to toss.

They are also not afraid to toss and go hungry and waste food.

Because the Ning family, the richest man in the city, said that any restaurant will eat for free today.

Those catering industries are even more colorful, making their own special foods more attractive, anyway, the more people come, the more they earn, and all expenses, plus 50 percent, can be reimbursed by the Ning family together.

What's even more strange is that every New Year's holiday is a time for thieves and beggars to show their skills, and today not only have beggars disappeared, but thieves have also stopped business, do they also have holidays?

Actually, this is all Xiaoyi's arrangement.

He issued a strict order to the Beggar Gang Law Enforcement Hall, prohibiting anyone from begging and stealing today, otherwise he would be severely punished.

And one of the achievements he was proud of was that he collected all the thieves' forces and turned them into a branch of the beggars' subordinates, the Hall of Righteousness.

Today, Xiao Cheng watched the whole ceremony, not only experienced a lively scene that he had never expected, but also shocked his soul even more.

There is an urge to change his life, which has always been stirring in his heart.

He had an urgent desire to find Mai Ke immediately and tell him his heart.

From this friend he just met, he can deeply feel full of love and family affection like a big brother.
