Chapter 40: There is no escape
One day, I don't know what day of the week it is, and during this time I don't bother to remember the day and date, and every weekend when I listen to other people shouting about how to spend the weekend, I know it's time to rest. Li Yanping called to say that her cousin was married and lacked a best man, and asked me if I would like to go.
"Be the best man, make no mistake, how can I do that?"
"I'm optimistic about you, you can do it, why don't you always have confidence?"
I want to say that I need self-confidence, but self-confidence needs capital, and I have nothing. And even more so conceit.
"It's not a question of self-confidence or not, it's that I don't know how to do it?" Justification.
"But I've already promised people, and besides, it's my own cousin, how can I change my hexagram casually?"
"Why didn't you say it in advance?"
"No, I thought you'd say yes......"
"What day? I don't necessarily have the time. ”
"The day after tomorrow, it happens to be the weekend, I guess you have time, I don't know if you ......"
……
Li Yanping's cousin got married, which means that Mr. Li must be there, and his daughter asked me to be the best man, if I don't go, the consequences can be imagined......
"Okay then, but I have to make a statement, don't blame me if you disgrace your cousin."
"Hey, what's that your name? Threaten me or what? ”
"No, no, don't get me wrong, Miss, I obeyed you......"
There was laughter on the other end of the phone, which was quite crisp.
"Then take the liberty of asking Miss, what do I need to prepare?"
"you, what lady, where do you get these words? You don't need to do any preparation, you can do it when the time comes. And if I called you this afternoon to ask you out, you won't refuse, right? ”
"Why are you asking me out?"
"Cut, come less, of course it's about how to be the best man, I'm going to teach you."
"You teach me? Have you been? Do you have experience? Hey hey ......"
"You, you, don't talk to you...... arrive at the Oriental Building on time at 2 p.m., I'll wait for you. Bye. ”
"No, I have to ...... in the afternoon" I want to say that I still have to go to work in the afternoon, and they have hung up.
My heart was pounding, what should I do? Hurry up online to find out how to be a best man and what to prepare?
That nervousness, as if I was going to be the groom. Diverting the topic, why don't I want to be a groom? My mom asked about it almost every week, and I always made excuses to excuse myself or divert the subject. I didn't even dare to call my mother. If one day, I have a wedding for myself, my mother may be so happy.
It seems that this matter needs to be hurried.
I didn't have time to check on the Internet, so I took the bus directly to the Oriental Building after lunch. I hope there is no traffic jam.
Li Yanping had been waiting there for a long time, smiling. There is also a man and a woman in one piece, and after the introduction, I learned that it was a small couple who were going to hold a wedding the day after tomorrow, the man was very handsome, and the woman was very beautiful.
I thought it was something, they said they were going to buy me a dress for the wedding scene, and even leather shoes and shirts for me. When I paid the money, people didn't let me live or die, and Li Yanping quietly told me that this was the rule, and there were red envelopes to take. Oh, it seems that I am making a sure profit this time.
After explaining everything, we had a meal together and spent two nights with apprehension. It wasn't until the wedding day that I knew that Li Yanping was a bridesmaid, this girl had a strange tight mouth, and she didn't hear the slightest rumor.
Fortunately, everything is carried out according to the steps, and the groomsmen and bridesmaids are no worse than the groom and bride, glamorous and out of the limelight.
