Although Chen Yue'er insisted on wearing a wedding dress in the first place, since Anna and Old Jack held this kind of wedding, about all the unmarried girls who attended that wedding have this dream in their hearts. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info And when I tried it on, I was so in love that I couldn't help myself, and I wanted to wear a dress all day. But now that she is really in public, she still feels extremely shy - after all, this is only a girl from the Han family in the seventeenth century, not comparable to later women.

Fortunately, by Chen Yueer's side, her father Chen Dalei has been accompanying her. In order to match his daughter's costume, Chen Dalei specially wore a rather unusual tuxedo today, holding his daughter's hand, as if he was a toddler with her when he was a child, and walked forward step by step, until the main hall door of the Catholic Church was picked up by the groom official Chen Tao.

Driven by the short hair, there was a burst of warm applause in the field, even those who do not know the Western marriage customs, at this time can understand the meaning of this intersection - her father took her here, and from now on, she and her husband will support each other and move forward together on the road of life.

"This Western wedding custom is really interesting, although its meaning is simple, it can also touch people's hearts."

Chen Zaizhu and Qian Yangxian muttered in a low voice, but then they saw a gorgeously dressed woman in front of them turn around and look at them quite carelessly, obviously thinking that they were muttering at this time, which ruined the beautiful atmosphere of the scene. Generally speaking, these daughters of noble families have always been cowardly and cowardly outside, how could they have ever taken the initiative to cause trouble? It can only be said that in today's environment, they are really very different from the past.

Of course, Chen Qian and the others will never fight with a little girl, not to mention that there is a person in a suit standing next to the girl - speaking of which, they should be regarded as each other's matchmakers, but they don't know which daughter this girl is, and people probably don't know them.

So Chen Qian and the others hurriedly bowed their heads slightly and apologized to each other, and then saw that the little girl turned her head in satisfaction, and once again stared at Chen Yue'er's wedding dress with an almost fanatical gaze - Chen Yue'er herself kept her head down because she was shy, so she couldn't notice how many burning eyes she had attracted along the way.

In fact, it was the same as her own reaction when she saw Anna in her wedding dress - maybe she would still feel shy when she remembered this scene later. But there is no doubt that her dress today will definitely cause a far greater sensation in the capital than the one in Hainan. Not to mention anything else, the girls present will definitely want to try it at that time, even if they don't believe in foreign religion at all.

——The allure of a beautiful wedding dress for a woman definitely transcends the barriers of time, space and culture. Let yourself be the center of everyone's attention on this day, this is the innate dream of every girl, whether it is a modern woman or a Ming Dynasty woman, it is the same.

Chen Tao took the bride in his arms and soon walked to the door of the main hall of the Catholic Church. When she got here, Chen Yue'er finally dared to lift up, because there was someone next to her who was wearing clothes similar to her-Wang Jiaojiao and Anna, who were standing on both sides, greeted her respectively. Under their encouraging eyes, Chen Yue'er finally became brave, she raised her head with her head held high, and stepped into the hall door together in the company of two costumed beauties.

"No wonder you have to wear such bright clothes......"

At this time, the onlookers saw some meanings - red, white, blue, the colors of the clothes deliberately chosen by Wang Jiaojiao and Anna set off Chen Yueer's white wedding dress in the middle to the greatest extent. Of course, they themselves are also very eye-catching - speaking of which, these three are all with their husbands, but at this moment, most of everyone's eyes are only on women. And the gentlemen standing next to ...... Even the groom Chen Tao has become an inconspicuous foil at this time.

After the bride and groom, the greetings entered the main hall together. Today, the main hall of the Cathedral is still a purely Chinese building, and the area is not too large. Only the furnishings inside are still arranged according to the tradition of the Western Catholic Church - in fact, there are not many things, even the crosses and statues on the walls are painted rather than statues, and the seats for the believers to rest are only long benches, not even a backrest, which shows that the founder of this Catholic church, Matteo Ricci, and the current host, Father Tong, are not very prosperous.

This time, though, the wedding business must have paid them a lot of good—there were plenty of brand new decorative fabrics hanging on the walls, apparently of the finest products that had just been brought from the warehouse of the Qionghai Trading Company. Moreover, the fabrics have been cut and painted with patterns of religious sites, presumably not temporary decorations, but permanent ones.

That's a lot of money for the Catholic Church – in this day and age, cloth can be used as hard currency like gold and silver coins. In case there is no money in the future, the church can exchange these fabrics for enough daily necessities.

And for this ceremony, Shorthair spent more than just cloth - in fact, the first thing most people who came in noticed was not the fabric, but the more colorful and striking abundance - flowers! Red, white, yellow, purple...... Countless beautiful flowers are carefully combined according to their shades of color, creating a colorful world in the interior of the church. This adds a festive atmosphere to the whole hall in addition to the solemn atmosphere of religion.

"Shorthair's ...... money"

Countless people have such a feeling in their hearts - this season in Beijing has not yet reached the time when the flowers are in full bloom, and many flower species here are not visible in the north, and they are clearly specially transported from the south.

Flowers are not a convenient thing to carry, and at the cost of transportation in this era, it costs precious capacity to travel thousands of miles from the south to bring these flowers that will wilt in a short time...... This behavior is even more exaggerated than the "riding on the red dust concubine laughing" back then!

Such an extravagant and wasteful behavior, if any Ming bureaucrat dares to do this, even if it is for the royal family, it will inevitably be criticized by the government and the opposition public opinion. And if it was an ordinary merchant who dared to show off his wealth so arrogantly, he would definitely have been exiled by raiding his house - the merchants of the Ming Dynasty were born inferior, this is a rule handed down from the era of Taizu and Chengzu!

But the gang was not among them—people used their own boats, transported their own goods, and spent their own money. Even if public opinion doesn't control them. And the so-called "ancestral rules" are even more of a joke to them - when Taizu became an ancestor, there were no businessmen who could build their own army, right?

Therefore, for the inadvertent behavior of shorthair, those onlookers in the field only secretly slandered a few words in their hearts at most, and more were envious. Especially the young girls, who don't have so many complicated ideas, just staring at the beautiful bouquets and drooling - I heard that they can be taken after the wedding!

The subsequent "I do" link actually has nothing to do with the Catholic customs of this era - Chen Tao's wedding this time is not so much a "Western-style" wedding as it is closer to a "modern" wedding, and many steps actually have nothing to do with religion.

But the people of the Ming Dynasty didn't know this, and those authentic Jesuit priests - they may not say that "the customer is God", but at least the rule of "paying is the uncle" is still observed. Since the client has a request and does not violate the doctrine, then do it.

So even though Fr. Tong stammered a little when he pronounced the phrase "In good times and bad, rich and poor, healthy or sick, happy or sorrowful, I will always ......", he still did his job very dutifully.

When Chen Tao and Chen Yueer both said the words "I do", in addition to Chen Dalei, there were actually several guests who were watching the ceremony and shed tears of excitement - of course, they were all women.

And in the last link, when the men and women exchanged rings, a specially selected, round and chubby child held a cotton mat, and the two huge ruby rings on the mat shone brightly - not that they couldn't find diamonds, but that diamonds were not easy to process with the technical means of this era. Moreover, there is no stable diamond source in the territory controlled by the Joan Navy, and there is no Del Biss Company these days, so it is not interesting to advertise this.

In contrast, ruby is mainly found in Siam, Burma, Annam, and Yunnan, all of which are in Southeast Asia, where the Qiong navy can radiate. In exchange for the industrial products of the Qiong Navy, a large part of the local products that can be taken out in these places are all kinds of precious stones. The vast majority of trading companies, from the general manager to the shareholders, are women, and they have little resistance to these beautiful little things...... As a result, all kinds of gemstones were sold to Hainan Island. Today, many precious gems are stored in the warehouse of the head office.

Chen Tao's Mingguangtang next step is to transform from an optical shop to a real jewelry shop, and advertise it first with his wedding, if he can establish the concept of "rubies must be used for marriage" in the aristocratic circles of the capital, then the business will be indispensable in the future.

Whether the ad will be useful or not is unknown to anyone, but at least the scene worked out really well - when the bride and groom hold each other's hands, and on their white-gloved fingers, two very striking ruby rings shine against each other, which is really eye-catching.
