Chapter 051: When the Wedding Takes Place

Deeply influenced by historical events such as the Age of Navigation, the black slave trade and Spanish colonization over the past few hundred years, Cuba has more than 10 religions such as Catholicism, Protestantism, Africanism, Cubanism, and Araraism, among which Catholicism is the most widely believed.

But all religions have been reformed and localized in Cuba, and doctrines have been redefined and interpreted, while a large number of expensive and cumbersome rituals have been removed.

For example, in Catholicism, a priest must officiate at the wedding, but nowadays most people in Cuba will choose relatives and friends or respected old people to officiate in their marriages, such as Feng Lao, who was invited by Li Le and Yelena to become the officiant of their wedding.

In addition, although the wedding vows are also inherited from the Catholic vows, the islanders of Treasure Island have also modified and improved them over the course of their lives, gradually "de-religious".

With the end of "Wedding March", Li Le and Yelena also accepted the flowers blessed by everyone and came to the main stage, facing Feng Lao.

Different from wearing colorful beach clothes and flip-flops in the past, today's Feng Lao is also handsome and well-dressed, wearing a bow tie, wearing a suit, and smiling.

"Guests, please stand up~" Feng Lao held the wedding card full of procedures and vows, and said softly into the microphone in front of him.

With Feng Lao's words, dozens of guests around also stood up and waited.

After the surroundings were quiet, Feng Lao also looked at the card and read softly and softly:

"Dear guests, we are gathered here, in the presence of Heaven and our guests, to see the bride and groom enter the sacred wedding hall, a very precious treasure and a sacred contract."

"First of all, our forefathers taught us that no one should be confused, frivolous and casual about marriage, but respectful? , prudence and reason, full of reverence for nature and life, and at the same time should carefully consider the connotation and meaning of marriage. ā€

"Second, marriage is the sublimation of human emotional instincts, which should be respected, guided, and supported, and God calls and leads people with pure emotions to the palace of marriage, and blesses them to continue to walk with this pure emotion."

"Third, marriage is about enabling both parties to be there for each other, to help each other, and to be integrated with each other. Therefore, whether sick or healthy, poor or rich, both parties who have such pure emotions have the right to enter the sacred marriage hall and be blessed by everyone. ā€

"So, now if anyone has a valid reason to think that these two people can't get married, please be able to say so now."

For these five paragraphs, Feng has been practicing for several days, and now he has finished reading it softly, without making any mistakes. Naturally, all the guests in the audience also knew the sacredness and importance of the wedding ceremony, and they all waited with bated breath.

Feng Lao paused for three seconds and continued.

"In that case, then, Mr. Li Le, are you willing to marry this lady as your lawful wife? Live together and protect your marriage together. From today on, will you always care about her, respect her, love her, no matter what is sick or healthy, no matter what happens, will you faithfully protect her for the rest of your life? ā€

"I do." Li Le said from the bottom of his heart.

Li Leben thought that this was just a ceremony, or a play performed by himself and Yelena for everyone, so he didn't care about it until this morning, but now listening to the solemn oath recited by Feng Lao word by word, Li Le's heart began to beat violently.

If there is something that caused such a change, perhaps it was Li Le who returned to the villa exhausted on the day he built the new rum distillery and watched Yelena fall asleep because she was waiting for herself; Perhaps after spraining her ankle that night, Elena gently rubbed herself with the potion to let herself sleep peacefully; Maybe it was just Fang Cai, Li Le watched Yelena put on a white wedding dress and appeared in front of him sexily and beautifully.

However, even so, Li Le's heart is also worried, compared to Yelena's sexy figure and angelic face, he is not outstanding, neither has a tall and strong body, nor is he a unique talent, and what he has to keep secret from the islanders is that he is still in debt now, and he may become a prisoner of bankruptcy and debt in five years because of the Treasure Island gambling contract.

Thinking about it like this, I should still take the initiative to keep my distance from her, maintain this "mutual aid marriage", and should not have any thoughts about her in the future, so as not to affect her.

"Alas~" Thinking of this, Li Le sighed sadly in his heart.

"Lady Elena, are you willing to make this gentleman your rightful husband? Live together and protect your marriage together. From today on, will you always care for him, respect him, love him, and faithfully protect him for the rest of your life, no matter what is going on in illness or health, no matter what happens? ā€

"I do." Elena said from the bottom of her heart.

Unlike Li Le, who readily accepted the "mutual aid marriage" at the beginning, Yelena actually still has some concerns, if it weren't for the fact that her family was really forced to have no choice, she would never use her precious marriage to help a stranger in a strange country.

As the French song "My Name is Elena" that Elena likes sings, Elena is just an ordinary girl, in her life, she also has her own joys and sorrows, and she also wants to find her own love. But the poverty of the family made her share the burden of the family very early, high school, college, should be enjoying the age of youth, Elena chose to do odd jobs to support the family, even if she finally went to the ocean to study, to study in China, she would often teach Spanish and go to the embassy for internships to earn money to send home.

Now that the family's debt crisis is resolved, Elena feels much more relaxed, and maybe she can fall in love normally like other girls.

In my heart, Elena never thought that she would have a crush on Li Le, not only did the two have a huge cultural difference, but Elena herself never thought of marrying a foreigner. As she proposed to Li Le at the beginning, this is a "mutual aid marriage" between superiors and subordinates, and there is nothing else.

But now, Yelena also found that there was a slight change in her heart, this was neither Li Le's care for her parents and her concern for herself, nor the $100,000 that Li Le repaid for her family, just like the agreement between the two, this is "mutual assistance", not "trading", of course, it must not be the billions of wealth that Li Le has, otherwise he would have been able to be prosperous and rich for a lifetime three years ago.

What made Yelena's heart quietly change was Li Le's simplicity, kindness and sincerity. Elena still remembers her mother's description of the excitement of Li Le and everyone working hard to build a new distillery that afternoon, doing tiring physical work with the most ordinary and poor people, and Elena herself could not believe that this was the work of a billionaire who was worth hundreds of millions; On the day of the "earthquake", Li Le's "life and death juncture", the first thing he thought of was when he grabbed himself and fled together, leaving Yelena not only with secret laughter, but also with the touching of the night; When Li Le carefully picked himself up that day, covered with a thin quilt, and did not have any other light behavior, Yelena's nervous heart also calmed down, what Li Le didn't know was that in fact, that day, when Li Le picked her up, she had already woken up.

Li Le is a good person, and may even be a good husband, but he is not worthy of him after all, and he is just an identity by-product that he needs temporarily. Although he is still beautiful, there are so many beautiful women in Cuba, which billionaire would choose his other half because he is beautiful? After all, Li Le will still choose the "right family" woman that they value as Chinese. In addition, the dishes he even cooked did not meet Li Le's appetite, and even unpalatable to the point that he vomited out, thinking about it like this, compared to those aristocratic girls who have had a good education since childhood, they are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, compared to them, they really have achieved nothing, like fireflies under the bright moon.

Thinking about it like this, I should still take the initiative to keep a distance from him, maintain this "mutual aid marriage", and should not have any thoughts about him in the future, so as not to become a burden and burden that is disliked by others.

"Alas~" Thinking of this, Yelena sighed sadly in her heart.
