Houjia Village, at this time, the lights are colorful. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThere were bustling crowds everywhere, and there were some unfamiliar faces in these crowds in addition to the children of the Hou family. Over the years, the Hou family has gone through the War of Resistance against Japan, Liberation, Resisting US Aggression and Aiding Korea to the War of Self-Defense and Counterattack.

None of these people can be left uninvited. Otherwise, it's time for people to pick on them. Don't look at the old ladies in the Hou family's rooms, they look like old farmers on weekdays. But who isn't a bunch of war wounds on his body?! Those who have saved them, they have saved. Some of the old comrades-in-arms who have depended on each other for countless times are no longer there.

But some of them are in important positions. The old ladies talk about principles, and they will never trouble their old comrades-in-arms on weekdays. Even if he is sick, he will never allow his children and grandchildren to greet people. Even when the children of the Hou family join the army, they are not allowed to find someone to find a back door or a relationship.

The Hou family's respect in the hearts of those old men was beaten down in this way. This big family, from old to young, has never taken advantage of the country. Even many children of the Hou family will give up their places to other comrades-in-arms when they can be transferred to other comrades when their term in the army expires.

It's not that they don't have enough skills, it's not that they're not in good condition. They feel that their comrades-in-arms need these places more than themselves. Therefore, there are also many sturdy men in the bustling crowd at this time, and they are either talking and laughing loudly with the children of the Hou family.

Or curiously watched Hou Dasheng lead Lisa and slowly walked past the archway towards the village. Everyone who saw Lisa couldn't help but be amazed. I have to admit that Lisa's makeup in today's wedding dress is really beautiful. But in this kind of beauty, there is a hint of solemnity and elegance.

Hou Dasheng calmly led the way in front, while Lisa held Benoit's wrist and walked slowly towards the old house solemnly and elegantly. The bluestone paved roads in the village have been specially washed today. The crystal-encrusted heels walked on with the crisp sound of "cluck~cluck~".

Smiling in response to those eyes that looked at her, Lisa today is a proud princess. She has the capital of pride, and she also has the right to pride. Under the gentle pull of her brother, the group slowly approached the old house. The crowd had already separated a wide road for the newcomers to get to the old house.

In the old house, one of the top two chairs in the Ming Hall sat Hou Laohu. The other one is dangling. On the chair on the left, there was a large number of old ladies of the Hou family and their old men who came to watch the ceremony. On the right, there is a person from Benoit's side, and Benoit finally decided to follow the Chinese wedding method.

Walking into the old house with Lisa in his arms, Benoit smiled in front of everyone and handed Lisa to Hou Dasheng. Then he slowly walked to the chair beside Hou Laohu and sat down. At this time, Hou Laohu changed into the tunic that Song Lao brought him.

But he solemnly bowed to the two rows of seats and the crowd inside and outside the door, and said in a deep voice: "The little nephew is a family, and you have come thousands of miles to watch the ceremony, so that the tiger is grateful." Let the Hou family shine! Again, I would like to express my deep gratitude to all of you for coming! ”

As he spoke, Hou Laohu actually repeated his words in English standards with a London accent. Of course, mainly to those who Benoit has brought. One of those men looked to be in his eighties, with a thin face. But the old man with his eyes shining and his lips pursed like hooks.

Behind the old man, there stood a sturdy man in his forties, with a bearded face and a head bowed, and a height of about 1.9 meters. In this room, the only man at the same age who can not be suppressed by Hou Laohu in terms of momentum is this man.

This man is a typical white man. Although the skin that emerged from inside his suit was tanned a healthy brown. But you can still see the special signs of other races. The shave is extremely short, and you can almost see the bluish scalp of the blond hair.

Without sunglasses, the blue eyes are exposed. On the thick knuckles of the fingers, there are fist scars. and the green tendons on the back of the hand, slightly bulging. This all silently shows that this is a master! He lowered his head and listened to Hou Laohu's speech expressionlessly. It seems that all the energy is placed on the old man in front of him.

"Dasheng, you're going to get married today. After starting a family, you have to shoulder the responsibilities of a man. After Hou Laohu solemnly finished speaking to everyone, he looked at Hou Dasheng in front of him and said in a deep voice: "The man of the Hou family didn't say anything about dropping the chain." You should carry it, you can't hide. The girl has followed you, and she cannot cause any one to suffer. ”

Hou Dasheng stood with his hands solemn, lowered his head and said in a deep voice to Hou Laohu: "Dasheng remember! Never call Lisa, suffer a little. Went out of their way to give her the best care possible! ”

Hou Laohu nodded, and then returned to his chair. At this time, men and women under the age of twenty who had changed into strong clothes walked out. They were holding a plate with several small cups in it. The aroma of the wine in the glass was so fragrant that you could smell it even at the door.

Holding Lisa, Hou Dasheng slowly walked to Hou Laohu and picked up the wine glass with Lisa, followed by two men and women in strong suits: "Uncle, you drink!" ”

Unlike tea toasts in other places, the Hou family has to toast when they get married. And it is to toast a circle, and the old people eat this toast to admit that the child has grown up. Only grown up children are qualified to toast them to be eligible to serve the wine table.

Hou Laohu took the wine that Hou Dasheng brought up and drank it all. Then he smiled and drank Lisa's toast in one gulp. Then he searched into his trouser pocket and found a pair of jade pendants. This jade pendant turned out to be in the style of a mandarin duck, and it was about the size of half a palm. This pair of jade pendants, the whole can be combined. But it can be taken apart again.

The jade is warm, and the brownish-yellow skin on it is cleverly carved into the crown of mandarin ducks. Hou Laohu rubbed the pair of jade pendants, and then smiled and handed them into the hands of the two of them, and said lightly: "The good things that your uncle got in the early years, I have raised them all these years because I want your kid to get married." Make a thought for you, take it! ”

Song Lao, who had been sitting upright, couldn't help but frown when he saw the jade pendant. But he didn't say anything, just squinted his eyes and waited for Hou Dasheng to toast him.

Great stuff! As soon as this jade arrived, Hou Dasheng knew that this thing was definitely not an ordinary thing. Especially when he caught a glimpse of Song Lao's unhappy eyes, he knew that the pair of jade that his uncle gave him and Lisa was definitely not a simple origin.

"Big brother, drink!" After toasting Hou Laohu, the next thing is naturally to toast Benoit. Fortunately, in the past few days, Benoit has finally adapted to the liquor. He smiled and took the wine glass handed by Hou Dasheng and Lisa, and drank it all like Hou Laohu.

Then Otto, behind him, took out a palm-sized velvet box. Benoit took the box and opened it, revealing a pair of diamond rings inside.

"For European weddings, the exchange of diamond rings is an inevitable procedure. I know you don't have this habit, so I've got it for you. Looking at the two diamond rings in the box, the size of two pigeon eggs, constantly reflecting the light in the sun, Hou Dasheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

's eldest brother really made an extraordinary move. The diamonds on these two diamond rings are undoubtedly superb. Whether it is the rough, the cutting process and its weight, it is better than most diamonds that Hou Dasheng has seen. I don't know how much Benoit spent to get these two diamond rings.

But that didn't seem to be the end of it, as Benoit slowly pulled out a blood-red velvet bag from his suit pocket. Gently opened it, and poured out a necklace from it. This necklace is set with a huge sapphire.

Around the perimeter is a circle of broken diamonds, in the shape of flowers. The smaller diamonds, on the other hand, form a chain of large sapphires surrounded by broken diamonds. Benoit smiled and stood up, then slowly put the necklace on Lisa.

"This is what your mother left for you, and she always wanted to say that you should wear it when you got married. It's a pity that she didn't wait for this day......" Benoit's words made Lisa cover her mouth. The blue eyes gradually turned red.

Scratching Lisa's nose, Benoit smiled and said, "Today is your wedding day, why are you crying?!" You should be happy, and your mother will be happy when she knows. This is my surprise to you and my mother's wish. ”

At this time, Otto handed Benoit a small box. Benoit took the box and handed it to Lisa: "This is for you husband and wife, and it contains some gold kept in the Swiss bank." There are also several real estate properties in London, Paris and New York, and shares in several New York companies. ”

"When you get married, you have to live a good life. It is not easy for you to be where you are today. Cherish it! Benoit didn't say how much the contents of the box were worth. But the faces of the white people who were below him couldn't help but change slightly.

Even the old white man, who was very old, couldn't help but raise his eyelids and look at Benoit. Soon, he lowered his head again. Then, Hou Dasheng began to toast the guests on the Hou family's side. This time, the gifts he received were varied.

From the time of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the old ladies seized the fountain pens from the US military officers. and then to the Gurkha scimitar captured in the war against India in 62. There is even a large sprinkler made of whole huanghuali and tung oil soaked in the shade for several years, and made by ancient methods.

Hou Dasheng and Lisa both looked at it directly, but fortunately, Hou Laohu explained from time to time. The two of them didn't get completely sick. Finally, the guests who came from both men and women finished their toasts. Hou Dasheng also had to toast with Lisa to the crowd of fathers and elders outside the Ming Hall.

Generally speaking, the guests from Benoit gave more congratulatory gifts of higher material value. For example, gemstone necklaces, real estate, estates, stocks, gold...... Wait a minute. And the guests on Hou Dasheng's side almost all give things that are of historical significance and most of them are seized or handed down.

Everything was busy in the old house, Hou Laohu waved his hand to the outside world, and he saw the courage at the door Shen Dantian shouted: "Licheng!" Open!! ”
