Chapter 293: The Engagement
July 24, early morning.
The street lights in the community are still on, with the light gray skylight, half light and half dark, the flowers and plants are stable, and there is a strange silence.
On the big bed, Fan Xiaoye hugged the pillow and slept soundly. Chu Qing got up early and was cooking noodles in the kitchen.
Soon, two bowls of fragrant mustard chicken noodles came out of the pot, he ran to the bedroom, pushed the lazy thing, and said, "Get up!" ”
"Hmmm......"
The good dream was disturbed, and she snorted unhappily and said, "I'll sleep for a while." ”
"Don't sleep, get up and get something to eat, or you'll be hungry during the day."
"Oh, I don't eat, I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep!"
Chu Qing had no choice but to bring the noodles in and put the small table he had specially bought on the shelf. Fan Xiaoye was like half paralyzed, he was reluctantly helped up, leaned against the head of the bed, and picked a noodle in a daze and began to eat.
"What time is it?" She asked.
"It's forty-fifty, your mother must be in a hurry."
"Isn't it five o'clock yet?"
She chewed noodles without a match, suddenly tilted her head, and pouted: "Kiss one!" ”
"What a kiss, eat quickly!" He sweated.
"No, hurry up and kiss one!"
He couldn't help it, leaned over and touched her lips lightly, so that he was willing to eat properly.
Chu Qing was fast, he made a bowl in two minutes, and just as he was about to get up and go to the kitchen, he heard the "clang" outside, and someone knocked on the door.
"Huh?"
He ran to open the door upside down, and the cool breeze blew through the hall, and his stuffy brain suddenly sobered up a lot, and of course, even more sober was the roar of his mother-in-law: "You two are too unreasonable!" What time is it? Why are you still sleeping! Heartless! ”
There was a crackling scolding head-on, and Fan's mother glared at him, and she didn't bother to change her shoes. Straight into the bedroom.
"Yikes!"
Fan Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, and then looked at his lower body, fortunately, after the snapping last night, he still remembered to put on his underwear.
As for Fan's mother, looking at her daughter's half-dreaming and unkempt appearance, she was angry and wanted to beat her up.
So, she really beat it, hugged her back and slapped it twice. Angrily said: "Hurry up and get me up!" There's also kung fu to eat! After a while, the guests are here, let them wait for you! ”
"Oh!"
The girl didn't dare to put a fart, so she climbed out of bed aggrievedly and ran to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face.
Chu Qing pursed her lips, saying that she couldn't help, so she made a cup of coffee for Fan's mother, and said with a smile: "I slept too late yesterday, it's okay, it's okay, I promise it's in time." ”
"Aoko. I didn't say you! ”
Fan's mother took the coffee, she didn't have the heart to drink it at all, she leaned on the coffee table and said, "I know you two are busy." I don't have the time to prepare, but I can't be so careless, are you engaged or we are engaged? I'm already accommodating to you, if it really does what her father and I want. It could never be so simple! ”
"Yes, yes, it's our fault, you discourage." Chu Qing has nothing to defend himself. Again and again.
According to the traditional engagement ceremony, there are six ceremonies, including Nacai, name, Najib, recruitment, invitation, and personal greeting, the man hires, the woman returns the gift, and the date is set, and the man goes all the way to greet the family.
But now there are fewer and fewer engagements, and they don't pay attention to this, not to mention that these two have been sleeping in the same bed for a long time, so Fan's father and Fan's mother simplified the procedure and focused on the wedding banquet.
Although they knew that the child was busy with work and had no time to take care of it, the old couple really didn't expect that it would be so unreliable, and even the ring was bought by them at their urging.
Heart congestion! The two of you just send a group text message to invite people, and there is nothing else to do, right?
……
I don't have to put on makeup for a long time, the trouble is to do my hair, at least three or four hours, and the time of the wedding card notice is nine o'clock, which is really a bit urgent.
Chu Qing and Fan Xiaoyebing are divided into two ways, the man goes to the hotel to decorate, and the woman goes to the studio to do the styling, thanks to which she hired a private makeup artist and stylist, who is on call, and it is more convenient.
Xiao Ye drove Daben to send the proprietress to the place first, and then turned around to pick up a few girlfriends, like Wang Tong, Huang Ying, and Cheng Ying, all of whom had to come over to help with the dots.
Chu Qing drove the Volkswagen and drove Fan's father and mother directly to the hotel, and there was also a group of buddies waiting early.
Not counting relatives, just friends, the two of them probably posted more than 100 posts, and there were about eighty or ninety people who made it clear that they could come. The older generation, such as Zhang Guoli and Wang Gang, may really have something, or maybe others, they all refuse anyway, and most of the younger ones have arrived.
In fact, looking at the guest list, you can figure out the acting experience of the two.
The first group is undoubtedly the Huanzhu crew, Su Youpeng, Lin Xinru, Wang Yan, Grandma Li, and Zhang Tielin were all present, including Zhao Wei, who was unhappy, and also promised to come over.
The second group is the group of directors, Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai, Lu Le, Jiang Wen, Li Yu and others, Hong Kong only sued Guan Jinpeng, it is a pity that Lou Ye is filming "Purple Butterfly" in the magic capital, and Liu Ye can't spare time.
The third group is the largest, including the two of them and their friends, Ren Quan, Li Bingbing, Zhang Jingchu, Yuan Quan, Xu Zheng, Xiao Taohong, etc., accounting for most of them.
Except for Yuan Lei and Meng Jing, they participated as friends, and no media were invited, and the venue was completely closed.
After half past eight, the guests gradually entered.
The hall is huge, a small round table with four seats, more than 20 on the left, more than 20 on the right, and a red carpet more than ten meters long in the middle.
That's it, mainly in tone, deliberately dark, with a black background, with a crimson silk curtain, and candlelight. Those who knew thought it was a wedding banquet, and those who didn't know thought it was a Hongmen banquet, and a Chu overlord would pop up in a while.
It's quite wonderful for celebrities to hold happy events, because the guests are also stars, raw and cooked, those who don't know each other, they don't cooperate in the play, they don't make friends in the event, but they get together at other people's wedding banquets.
This kind of occasion is very good, it doesn't matter if the wrist is big or small, it is all a group of relatives and friends.
Chu Qing had no father or mother, so he invited Old Man Cheng to be the man's parent and talk to them. The position of the host was asked by Zhang Tielin, this product is so lively, and he can speak in the vernacular.
"Are you here?"
At nine twenty o'clock, at the door of the hotel, Chu Qing stretched his neck to look at the road, and Dad Fan also ran out of the building in a hurry and asked.
"It's almost there, it's a bit of a traffic jam, you go up first, I'll be here myself." He replied.
"Hey, this kid, it's just ......" The other party looked very annoyed, shook his hand, but his body did not move.
He was also anxious, but he had to comfort Dad Fan, and said with a smile: "The soldiers have to dress up before they can come out, and if they delay, they won't be able to say anything." ”
"It's not lazy, it's okay to wake up early!" Dad Fan knows his daughter too well, and he feels more and more sorry for his uncle.
"Heh, she's ...... Hey, it's coming! ”
His eyes were sharp, and he saw the big running car turning the corner from a distance, and hurriedly reminded him.
The two men suddenly became energetic, and they poked on the steps together, looking forward to it. And the car slowly drove to the front, the door opened, and six people jumped down, in addition to the three girlfriends, Lu Xiaojia and two female masters.
After that, the girl appeared, Huang Ying and Cheng Ying on one side, holding her and slowly getting out of the car.
Red shoes, cheongsam, classical bun hair ornament, standing, gently looking up...... This glance, like a large peony flower, blooms like fire, burning until Chu Qing withers and turns to ashes.
"Silly you!" The girl was stared at by him, couldn't help but be a little shy, and bit her lip.
Dad Fan ignored it completely, pulled his daughter and walked inside, urging: "It's finally here, hurry up, go upstairs!" ”
Whether it is a bride-to-be or a bride, it is probably a crystal cup, which will break when touched. There were five people standing in the elevator, and everyone didn't dare to squeeze it, for fear of folding their clothes and touching the pearl hairpin, and they were waiting for the next trip.
Dad Fan hurriedly accompanied him, but Chu Qing fell behind in a funny way, following Lu Xiaojia and the two female masters, as well as Ye Kai, who had just run in.
He also saw these two newcomers for the first time, one was gentle and beautiful, and the other was petite and smart, both of whom were good embryos.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaojia also hurriedly helped to introduce it, and said with a smile: "Brother Qing, this is a stylist, called Su Ying; This is a makeup artist, named Su Rongrong. ”
"Brother Qing is good!" The two girls greeted in unison.
"Hey, you're relatives?" He wondered.
"No, we are from the same province, but in different places, she is near the water, and I am backing the mountain." Su Ying said.
Su Rongrong continued: "Uh-huh, so she lives in the valley and I live on the boat." ”
Chu Qing: "......"
(There is something to do at night, I write urgently, and the words are a little less, and there will be two more tomorrow.) (To be continued......)
