Chapter 103 Happiness is your happiness
The host, Roger, walked briskly to the center of the stage, and all the music immediately stopped, symbolizing the beginning of the celebration......
"Today is a special day, not only the opening of the Mom and Dad Theme Restaurant, but also the wedding celebration of a couple of septuagenarians, here, please allow me to express my warm congratulations to the Mom and Dad Theme Restaurant on behalf of the new visual planning company, and at the same time express my deep blessings to the elderly couple." Roger bowed deeply, winning a lot of applause from the audience.
"First of all, I would like to invite Mr. Xing Yihao, the general manager of the Mom and Dad Theme Restaurant, to give a speech." Roger's subdued voice sounded, followed by a nice piece of soft music.
"First of all, I would like to announce the official opening of the Mom and Dad Theme Restaurant, thank you again for coming, in order not to affect everyone to watch the show for a while, I will make a long story short, and briefly introduce the characteristics of our restaurant. Our restaurant is a restaurant with the theme of caring for the elderly in their later years, the purpose is to arouse the attention of young people to the elderly, and hope that the younger generation will find more time to spend with their parents while working hard, even if it is to have a meal together and chat together. The design style of each of our private rooms is different, reflecting the characteristics of different eras from the 40s of the last century to the present, and I believe that there will always be an era that can match your parents. This design is not only convenient for the family to eat together, but also allows everyone to have an intuitive feeling of that era. In terms of menus, we have also carefully designed a variety of dishes from various cuisines for everyone to choose from. At the same time, our restaurant also cooperated with the Caring for the Elderly Foundation to carry out a love action, and customers will donate a dime to the foundation for every 100 yuan spent. What's more, our promotions are 88% off from now until next Sunday. Everyone is welcome to come and experience it. Finally, I would like to say that this store is our first one, and we will open a chain in the future, I hope you will be able to cheer at that time, thank you! Xing Yihao bowed deeply and ended his speech. He is a typical Shandong man, five big and three thick, with a loud voice and a little accent, but his speech is sonorous and powerful, and it is very easy for people to be infected.
"Thank you to the restaurant for such a great event. The wedding of the elderly couple will take place in two hours, before which the audience can visit the restaurant and enjoy the show. Below, please enjoy an old song "Always Go Home to See". Roger said very emotionally.
Find some free time and find some time
Lead the child to go home often
Bring a smile and good wishes
Accompany your lover to visit home often
……
The music sounded, the actors' singing skills were good, and every word struck people's heartstrings.
"I haven't been home for a long time, come with me to my mother's house tomorrow." A girl pouted and said, it is estimated that it is a couple who have just been married for a short time.
"Our mother, our mother." The boy corrected with a smile and gently wiped the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes with his hand.
The girl rolled her eyes at the boy, but she didn't speak, still pouting.
"Tomorrow we will invite our parents to a big dinner, how about it in this restaurant?" The boy reached out and stroked the girl's hair.
"Hmm~" The girl burst into tears and laughed.
"To be honest, it's been a long time since I've been home to see my elderly parents. Today, really educated. Don't say much with emotion, please enjoy the sketch "Mom and Dad". Roger gave up the stage with that.
……
In this way, one program after another, or the meaning is far-reaching and induces deep thinking, or the joy makes people feel comfortable, or the humor makes people laugh,......
More and more people gathered here, especially when they heard that there would be a couple of old people holding a wedding here in a while, everyone waited to see the excitement.
I have to say that Roger has a lot of experience on the spot, and his time control is just right. At eleven o'clock in the morning, the show here just ended, and the old man's wedding car drove over.
The old man's wedding car was an army green jeep, and near the passenger seat of the front hood was a bouquet of red roses and white lilies, arranged in a circle, and decorated with tender green lover's grass on the periphery. Underneath the bouquet stretched six large red ribbons to the edge of the car, where a red rose was fastened. The mirrors and armrests are tied with large red flowers, the roof is decorated with a small number of red roses, and the rear of the car is lined with a row of red roses. The lead car was followed by five army green jeeps, all decorated with bright red ribbons.
This was followed by the crackling sound of firecrackers. A pair of silver-haired old men got out of the car holding hands, with happy smiles on their faces.
Li Xiuying's top is silver and gray, with a red auspicious cloud pattern, which is both festive and dignified, and brown trousers just cover the top of her feet. I don't know if it's because of makeup, Li Xiuying looks ruddy, and her silver hair is wearing a red flower, which is particularly eye-catching.
Zhang Aiguo wore a green military uniform, probably as a soldier in his early years, his clothes were particularly neat, and his waist seemed to be straight. If it weren't for the silver hair that revealed the secret of age, he would really look like a heroic strong man from behind.
In the car behind were all the relatives and friends of the old man, not many, about 20 people, and they all came down. They walked behind the old man and looked very happy. Especially a few children who are three or four years old are even more happy.
"Please give up the red carpet to our very loving audience friends and welcome a couple on stage." As soon as Roger's words fell, the crowd of onlookers automatically dodged to both sides, and quickly gave way to a passage.
A pair of elderly people slowly walked onto the stage, nodding to the people on both sides. Thank you to these strangers for coming to witness their wedding.
"I am honored to officiate the wedding of an elderly couple, and I hope that the friends in the audience can send their blessings to their union. Applause rang out~" As soon as Roger's words fell, the audience burst into warm applause.
The two old men stepped onto the stage amid the warm applause and blessings of the audience on both sides, and they stood in the center of the stage, the silver filaments on their heads were even more vicissitudes in the sunlight.
"Because the elderly are older, we abandon the complicated rituals and adopt the most traditional Chinese wedding." Roger explained.
"Worship heaven and earth!" Roger pulled a long voice and announced loudly.
The old man was older, and he didn't really kneel, but bowed deeply.
"Second worship high hall!"
The newlyweds are long gone, so the second prostration is for the guests.
"Husband and wife worship each other!"
The two old men faced each other, slowly bent down, and touched their heads lightly.
"Just now, at the request of the organizers, Mr. Zhang Aiguo wants to say a few words to the audience, everyone is welcome." Roger said.
"Some young people may feel that at our age, it is a bit disrespectful to hold a wedding. But I would like to say that older people also have the right to pursue happiness and also need a partner who can communicate...... You have flapped your wings, and your thinking may be more advanced than ours, but because of this, we have created what is known as a generation gap...... However, you may not know or understand that we are just like you, we have our own thoughts, our own way of thinking, and we can feel the cold, warmth, and hunger. So, on behalf of the elderly, allow me to say to you young people: please understand our needs...... I would also like to say that I consider myself very lucky to have met my lover and have such a wedding in my final year. I would also like to thank the planner Tang Jingjing for the surprise she brought us, thank you. Thank you to everyone present for witnessing our wedding. After Zhang Aiguo finished speaking, he bowed deeply to the audience. His speech was very slow, he was thinking and talking, and what he said was what was in his heart, although his voice was a little trembling, but his spirit was very full.
Li Xiuying looked up at Zhang Aiguo from time to time, but her eyes were cloudy because of old age, but they revealed happiness and sweetness.
"Our union is the union of two families, and I hope that the children of both sides can move around more and live in harmony." Li Xiuying took the microphone in Zhang Aiguo's hand and said slowly.
"Thank you, thank you two old men for your statement. I think what the old man just said is worth reflecting on in every one of our young people. Okay, don't say much about the emotion, please take a break. Roger helped the old man to sit down in the chair next to him.
"I would like to invite the man to speak on behalf of Professor Zhang Zongnian, the eldest son of Mr. Zhang Aiguo." Roger continued.
"To be honest, I once blocked my father's wedding, but thanks to Ms. Tang Jingjing untying my knot, I finally made the right choice. I now deeply understand that what we think of as happiness is not necessarily what they want, and as children, we should be happy with their happiness, not let their happiness follow our imagination. Here, on behalf of the man, I wish my father and Aunt Li good health and happiness! In the days to come, we will spend more time with you, and our two extended families will also organize frequent gatherings. Zhang Zongnian looked at the audience meaningfully.
"Thank you, thank you, Professor Zhang, for your statement. Next, I would like to invite the woman to speak on behalf of Li Xiuying's granddaughter Duan Qiqian. Roger said.
"I won't say more, I wish my grandparents a happy life and a happy smile." Duan Qiqian said with a smile.
"Next, on behalf of my parents, I will send a wedding gift to the two old people, which is a pair of wooden chopsticks, which means that the two old people are in pairs, affectionate, happy and happy. Here, the host also wishes the two elderly families harmony and happiness! Roger said.
"Thank you, thank you." Zhang Aiguo and Li Xiuying got up to accept the gifts.
Many viewers in the audience shed tears, they have seen many wedding ceremonies, most of the procedures are complicated and the content is similar, but the host is relied on to set off the atmosphere. But today's wedding is almost entirely a stage for the newlyweds, which makes the audience very moved.
"Finally, we invited Ms. Tang Jingjing, the planner of our new vision, to give a wedding speech and issue a marriage certificate to the two elderly people." Roger said.
