Chapter 91: The Finale: The Wedding in My Dream (Part II)
Since the wedding time is set at dusk, in addition to the best men and bridesmaids who come to help in the morning, most of the wedding guests arrive in the afternoon, and when the wedding is over, the guests can choose to stay on the island for one night, or take the party yacht arranged by He Panshan to return to the port city directly from the mouth of the Demo River and visit the night view of the city along the river.
So this arrangement, there will be a period of time in the afternoon, this time is just left to the staff to arrange the scene, and the overall design of the scene is Cao Aiqing docked in the morning, a lot of equipment and decoration have been entered in advance, so it doesn't take much time to really arrange, and a few bands and DJs were specially invited to the scene to be responsible for the afternoon warm-up, so that the guests who arrived in advance will not be too bored.
Half past two in the afternoon.
After receiving the kiss and eating lunch, He Tianran and Cao Aiqing were temporarily separated, and the girl had to change her makeup and wedding dress, and when they met next time, He Tianran would personally take over Cao Aiqing from Cao Fengyao's father, and officially fulfill the duties of a man and husband to form a new family.
From a student, a man, to a husband and a father who will eventually become in the future, in the face of the upcoming change in identity, He Tianran is excited, excited, and anxious just thinking about it, which makes him a little restless when he arrived at the scene in advance, and his friends can see his anxiety, but there is really nothing to persuade about this kind of thing, so he can only walk around the scene with him.
I'm thinking of you in the second ring road, and you are in the mountains in the distance
Today's wind is blowing and raining on you, and I say that all the wine is not as good as yours
……
At this moment, a deep but magnetic voice came from the stereo at the wedding scene, which was the invited band entering the venue and was auditioning.
He Tianran looked at the T-shaped catwalk that had been set up, this band is actually not a famous band, but the lead singer and the musicians cooperate very tacitly, the lead singer is a teacher of a certain conservatory, what is the name of the band "Yanjiao Alley", there is a bar and Livehouse of the same name on Zhengyang Street and University Town respectively, and the boss behind it is the band's drummer Lu Alun.
Because He Tianran was going to sing at the wedding, he had already communicated with the band in advance and rehearsed, and after getting to know each other, he knew that the members of this band were all fans of He Panshan's rock and roll period, which made him can't help laughing, and sighs that no wonder the band at this wedding can find them.
If He Tianran still has memories, he should be very happy to see this group of old friends at the wedding, because this band is the first band he joined when he was forced to work in order to participate in the art exam, and it is the starting point that supports him to pursue his dreams.
However, now that the times have changed, the cause and effect have made He Tianran not participate in the art examination, and naturally he will not go to Yanjiao Lane to work, let alone make this group of friends who play music, so even if they know each other now, when communicating, it is inevitable that they are polite and unfamiliar, so He Tianran did not disturb their work for the first time.
Now the music is up, the guests in the audience sit here and there to enjoy the band's performance, some of the best men and bridesmaids take advantage of the beautiful wind and sunshine at the moment, planning to check in at various attractions on the island, and there are also people who are busy and tired in the morning to rest on the scene, He Tianran looked around, and saw Guo Huai sitting alone in a daze.
He Tianran smiled slightly, walked up, and sat beside him.
"What do you think?"
Guo Huai turned his head and laughed as well.
"I didn't think about anything, let it go."
After saying this, both men leaned back in their chairs, one with their heads tilted and the other with their heads down, and this rare leisure time in their busy schedules made them both tacitly choose to be silent for a moment.
I sing for you in the night of the Drum Tower, and meet and look forward to it in silence elsewhere
The plane flies over the busy city, thousands of miles away without leaving
……
The song "Ten Miles of Spring Breeze" on the stage continued, and Guo Huai couldn't help but look at the layout of the scene while listening.
Now the ceremonial area of the wedding has been almost arranged, the round arch of red and white roses decorating the main color divides the venue and the stage area, at the same time, this door is also the starting point of the whole ceremony, and this location is specially chosen according to the position of the sunset, when the wedding is carried out, looking inward from the arch, you can see the wonderful scene of the newlyweds and the sunset.
"I've heard you tell Ai Qing before that the theme of your wedding planning this time is ...... 'poetry', right?"
Guo Huai suddenly asked, and He Tianran nodded: "That's right, this is also a conceptual definition made by Ai Qing when he designed the museum for this island, called 'Poetry of the Lonely Island'......"
The man recalled his wife's explanation of himself at the beginning, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hang a happy smile, and he continued:
She said that we don't read and write poetry for fun, we like poetry because we are part of human beings, and human beings are full of passion, business, law, IT, medicine, these are noble pursuits, enough to support a person's life, but poetry, painting, drama and dance, these are also full of meaning in life.
Because of our existence, so that these wonderful things can be continued, poetry has been passed down for thousands of years, not only let us experience the joys, sorrows and sorrows of our predecessors, but also let people today have an additional way to express their feelings, people who write poems may feel lonely, but people who read poetry must not, because at the moment of empathy, this emotional link has passed through time and space.
Therefore, Ai Qing decided on this theme, she wants to dedicate a 'poem' to this island, so that the island will no longer be lonely. I think she used this definition of our wedding to make us both separate individuals, and at this moment of our wedding, we should complete a link together and become a part of this poem. ”
Guo Huai listened silently, leaned back in his chair and thought for a long time.
"I ...... I still don't understand what art is, but I do feel the kind of 'emotional connection' you mentioned, and I may not be able to say it, but I feel it...... It's so good, I envy this romance and ...... of you two Fit. ”
"Well, you don't need to know any art, you just need to understand the person you love...... By the way, Lao Guo, this is for you. ”
With that, He Tianran took out a white rose from the mezzanine of the dress, which was well preserved and had not been squeezed and deformed.
He handed it to Guo Huai and said:
"Take it, this is the ...... that Ai Qing specially asked me to bring to you"
Guo Huai was stunned after taking it, and He Tianran continued:
"Ai Qing knows that you won't participate in any activities to grab bouquets, so this is one she took out of the bouquet and gave it to you, the flower language of white roses means pure love, I, Tingting, Ai Qing, and you Guo Huai, we have known each other since high school, and now we are standing in the middle of the year, more than ten years of time have passed in a hurry, and the feelings paid in it are worth a response."
A few years ago, Guo Huai was the technical director of a high-tech enterprise, and later went to the sea to start a business, and he became the boss of his own as the president of the student union and the company's executives.
He has always been single, and I heard that his mother arranged several blind dates for him, but in the end they all died of illness on the grounds of personality incompatibility.
In fact, Guo Huai's style and personality in the company are usually very decisive, and he will not be as shy and silent as he is today, and it may be only today that he can show such a face in front of these old friends.
"Natural me...... Hey, I didn't know anything at that time...... Don't get me wrong, I've long been ...... to Ai Qing."
Facing the hurried look of his old friend, He Tianran laughed and slapped the other party's back twice, only to make Guo Huai's body shake.
"Oh, I don't need to explain, na, I've beaten you twice, I don't say anything, I don't think what we thought at that time can be said to be ignorant, on the contrary...... I think it's a very precious memory. ”
"You...... Don't mind? ”
"How can I say it......"
Thirty-one-year-old He Tianran withdrew his hand, crossed his hands behind his head, and slumped on the chair, his eyes reflected the blue sky, and slowly recalled:
"I remember that we were all quite introverted at that time, and in the face of a good girl like Ai Qing, we all had an indescribable inferiority complex, and others would be shy when they said a word to us, not to mention taking the initiative to talk to people and girls, but mum, which man didn't like such a girl when he was studying, in his youth?
That girl either softened the time, or amazed the years, in short, they took root in this way at the age when we were most longing for spring, and this is not something that needs to be explained, nor is it something that cannot be seen.
You say it's really strange, the people I knew in my youth, the people I liked, even if I didn't say a few words, but I can always remember it for a long, long time, after I am thirty years old, I think back on it, I always feel that this is a great thing, whether it is the one who is loved, or the one who loves others, because when we mention these past events, it is the beginning of the sentence "I was loved more than ten years ago" or "I liked someone more than ten years ago......
You see, if you prefix this kind of juvenile affair with time, you can always brew a different kind of emotion.
I used to hate the fact that my elders bragged about some of the great memories, because I felt that it was something that only the twilight people liked to do, and the real heroes didn't even bother to talk about their previous achievements.
But now I can gradually understand that if I can continue to live with a cow beep, who wants to stop beeping?
The heroes in the story are always young, and the love in the story is always romantic, but the reality is not, so the old people can only turn the memories into a story that may not be so continuous, because in the story, everything is so beautiful.
I've been lucky enough, my love has blossomed, and I've brought the story of my youth back to life, but I can't be ashamed to laugh at other people's stories because I'm lucky, and every story needs an ending, doesn't it?
If we can, Ai Qing and I both want to make everyone's story as complete as possible, this is our common idea.
Give people roses to leave a lingering fragrance, Lao Guo, this flower, you can accept it. ”
“……”
Rubbed all the spring into one early morning, and closed the door on all the words that couldn't stop turning into a secret
Inexplicable feelings, who will take it away?
I had to turn the years into songs and leave them in the mountains and rivers......
Unconsciously, a song is nearing the end, Guo Huai stares at the pure white rose in his hand, and a warm current in his heart uncontrollably wells up in his eyes, and then he turned his face, his hand seemed to be wiping something in the corner of his eye, He Tianran looked at the band performance on the stage, but his hand slapped the back of this old friend again, this time, he was very light.
"Naturally, you're not lucky......"
After a while, Guo Huai suddenly said that angrily.
"Huh?"
Guo Huai, who turned back again, except for his eyelashes being slightly moist, his expression had returned to normal, and he said sincerely:
"Ai Qing is very kind...... So are you, so it's not a stroke of luck that you're together. ”
He Tianran touched his nose and said with a wry smile:
"No one has ever praised me for being kind, Lao Guo, don't fool me."
Guo Huai shook his head, looked at the rose in his hand and said seriously:
"Since I was a child, my mother told me that men have confidence only when they have money, and in order to have money and confidence, I study hard and work hard, I want to have a place to live in Hong Kong City, and I can have my own career, but after having all this, I suddenly found that before I had money and confidence, I should learn to be a man, not a boy.
I should have learned a lot of things from you to have friends like you and Ai Qing, but unfortunately, I woke up late, and when I realized that some qualities are as important as hard work, many things have already happened, such as courage, such as kindness, just like when you pulled me to administer justice for Ai Qing.
Naturally, I wouldn't have been able to stand up without you.
I believe that more is better than less, I keep my sanity, I am pertinent, I don't get into trouble, I don't go crazy, I don't let my emotions get out of control, I don't stand in line and I never take a stand.
I am silent, I accept everything, the pendulum always stops in the middle, I see some people crying and shouting, angry and helpless, I am also silent, and I accept everything, anyway, it is none of my business, hanging high.
It's selfish that I try to make a good living and avoid all possible bad things with others, but it also brings me a lot of convenience, but the more I do this, the more I feel like I'm living a little less like a human being......
It wasn't until later that I realized that I had money and confidence, but I didn't seem to be a man, and my selfishness may not be sober, it's more like a ...... Cowardice.
So naturally, it is not unreasonable for Ai Qing to choose you, and I firmly believe that such a you will definitely bring her happiness. ”
He Tianran clasped his hands and was very happy:
"Of course, after all, the rose was given to you, and I will marry the person first, which can't be allowed, hahahaha."
Guo Huai stood up as if he had unloaded a burden:
"My story is complete, thank you husband and wife."
After speaking, he handed the white rose in his hand to He Tianran again.
"You...... What do you mean? ”
Could it be that Guo Huai replied with confidence:
"I wish you a happy wedding, I should borrow flowers to offer Buddha, but when Ai Qing holds a bouquet of flowers, I will definitely grab it!"
He Tianran was so happy that he gave a thumbs up after taking the flower, and said in a continuous voice:
"Groove, good, good, cow beep cow beep~!"
