The wedding process in the south is generally more complicated and cumbersome than in the north.

But fortunately, Chen Ming and Ouyang's wedding was not chosen in a relatively conservative rural hometown, in a city like Yulin. A wedding is basically a midday banquet and the end of the day.

Despite this, Chen Ming, who got up the next day, was still so busy that his feet did not touch the ground.

After washing up in a hurry, I didn't even bother to eat. The pioneer car took Ouyang and Tan Qiuwen to a beauty salon near the hotel for styling, and then delivered the prepared candy gift bags to the hotel.

Originally, these tasks could be handed over to the wedding company to package and do well, but because Tan Qiuwen didn't know whether to save money or want to participate more in her son's wedding, Chen Ming and the three of them did these things themselves. In addition, the electronic USB flash drive of the album was also handed over to the hotel emcee.

After doing all this, Chen Ming drove to the dry cleaner to take home a set of military dresses that had been ironed for them a week ago, and then turned out a new set of accessories in the bedside table and began to assemble.

By the time Chen Ming finished this, it was already around ten o'clock, and he hurriedly folded the dress and put it in the garment bag. With the two cigarettes reserved, Chen Ming went out again.

Since today is a working day, and Chen Ming's relatives and friends are more concentrated. Except for Zheng Yuanhai, the group of people lived upstairs in the wedding banquet hall and did not need additional pick-up. In order to save the time consumed on the road, Chen Ming also greeted the car company at the base station in advance and asked them to send a few buses to help pick them up.

Although there must be the approval of the leader in this matter, after all, it is for his own personal affairs to ask someone for help. It is still necessary for Chen Ming to come to the car company to thank him.

After making sure that the time was correct, one of the drivers stuffed two packs of cigarettes and threw the remaining one cigarette into the company commander's office. Only then was Chen Ming able to leave the base with confidence.

I found a bathing center, hurriedly took a hot shower, changed into a dress, and then went to Ouyang to do a quick styling. declined the clerk's kindness to put on light makeup for herself, and waited for Ouyang and her mother to finish their styling before they went to the hotel together.

"Oh, you're here. Wait a little longer and your colleagues will all arrive. ”

As Chen Ming's hairdresser, Zheng Yuanhai spontaneously helped greet the guests before Chen Ming came. Although I met some yesterday, they were relatively close people. More colleagues, Chen Ming can't help but invite, but he can't talk about how familiar he is, and Zheng Yuanhai is quite embarrassed to greet him.

"Thank you, thank you. Leave the rest to me, and you can help me bring my mother over and rest. ”

Just a cursory glance, Chen Ming saw that it was indeed as Zheng Yuanhai said. Some colleagues got off work early and had already come over first, and both sides were relatively unfamiliar, so it was indeed a little difficult for Zheng Yuanhai to greet him.

"Alright, alright, you go and greet the guests. On my side, you don't care. Xiuzhu, Xing'er, you take your younger siblings to change their wedding dresses. Auntie, come with me. ”

Looking at Zheng Yuanhai's backs as they went away, Chen Ming relieved himself to go and say hello to his colleagues who came first. Then he hurriedly went downstairs to prepare for the new guests.

"Hello, are you also getting married today?"

Chen Ming's family is not the only one who is married today. I have long seen some people in and out of the hotel in military uniforms, and some strange people have seen Chen Ming walking to the door of the hotel wearing a straight military uniform. A newlywed couple standing beside Chen Ming suddenly asked curiously.

"Yes, it looks like you are too. I will first wish you a hundred years of good harmony and an early birth of a noble son. ”

Hearing the question of the young man next to him, Chen Ming congratulated with a smile. Being able to hold a wedding in the same hotel on the same day is also a kind of fate. Chen Ming naturally did not face each other coldly.

Greeting each other politely, after greeting each other, Chen Ming saw a row of white buses with three-color ribbons at the tail coming through. Suddenly, a more enthusiastic smile appeared on his face, and he greeted him out the door.

The congratulatory smiles on the faces of the colleagues, the soldiers on the ship who joined the army for the first time and were able to attend the chief's wedding, the curious, expectant expressions when they left the barracks, and the whispers of the people passing by.

Chen Ming seems to have understood what life is at this moment. It turns out that my days, in addition to hobbies such as travel other than work, are more to satisfy myself.

Even when I was preparing for the wedding, I was more involved because I liked the small interaction with Ouyang. And to this day, Chen Ming, who didn't like to be too lively, had to bite the bullet and say those polite nonsense. I really felt that little bit.

Life is not vigorous, not colorful. There are more in life, and it is this kind of dull and tasteless human affection, ushering in the send-off. Many people may not be aware of this, but they are actually doing it.

"Alright, everyone is together. Let's go inside. ”

Several cars of people passed in front of Chen Ming one by one and said a word of blessing. Chen Ming, who said thank you, was about to twitch when he said it, and when he saw Political Commissar Huang hanging behind the team, he came over, and was about to say something, when he heard Political Commissar Huang take the initiative to speak.

"Okay, hard work, Lao Huang."

Chen Ming, who breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at Political Commissar Huang. Political Commissar Huang, who was a passerover, naturally knew how tiring it was to deal with these things, and after greeting the soldiers who came over after parking the car, he stepped forward and grabbed Chen Ming's shoulders and walked inside.

Seeing Chen Ming come in, the hotel master of ceremonies knew that the guests had arrived. hurriedly signaled the waiter to close the door of the banquet hall, and the skilled gaffer saw the door closed, and immediately dimmed the lights in the hall.

Realizing that the wedding was about to begin, the guests also closed their mouths of small talk and waited quietly.

"Okay, it looks like all of you know today that the wedding is about to begin. Before I get out of our groom for today, let me play a slideshow. ”

When the banquet hall was quiet, the master of ceremonies stepped onto the stage. After clearing his throat, he spoke.

"To be honest, I've been working as a wedding officiant for three years. I've seen a lot of wedding commemorative photos, but I feel that the most meaningful and moving one is today. Some people may say that you may have said this at other weddings, well, I'll admit I did. ”

A little joke was playfully made, and the guests were finished laughing softly. The master of ceremonies continued.

"But I don't think I'll be able to say that anymore. Without further ado, let's take a look at the big screen. ”

On the projection screen, which was originally played with a festive background, the picture flashed. The first photo of Chen Ming and Ouyang at the gate of the Dalian Naval Ship Academy appeared in front of people.

Chen Ming, who was wearing old-fashioned clothes and red epaulettes, took a photo with the local girl who now looks like a village girl. Immediately, the guests who had been hung up their curiosity exclaimed in low voices.

This idea is a bit interesting~
