Chen Jiao stepped forward and said, "Think about it, congratulations."
"I'm very happy that you can come." Xiangxiang hugged Chen Jiao and said in her ear.
"Thank you for letting me take you home." Chen Jiao replied softly.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Zhou Tianlei took Cheng Xiang to the living room and said goodbye to Cheng Wanshan and his wife.
Cheng Wanshan looked at them and said, "Okay, Xiao Zhou, think about it. From now on, the two of you should support each other and live a good life, and respect each other as guests."
"What an official statement," Cheng Xiang thought to himself. He thought that this man would at least show some reluctance, but he didn't expect that he could still be so good at pretending at this time.
Su Qing's smile next to her was more official, like a loving mother.
According to the rules in the countryside, the woman's parents will not attend the wedding, but because the military and political commissar said they would go to congratulate them in person, Cheng Wanshan and his wife must go there to accompany them.
Therefore, saying goodbye at this time is just a formality.
When he reached the stairs, Cheng Xiang looked at the stairs and the high heels on his feet with a slight hesitation.
Zhou Tianlei whispered in her ear: "I'll carry you down."
Cheng Xiang was surprised and said quickly: "That's not necessary."
Before he finished speaking, his whole body rose into the air and fell into the man's generous arms. Cheng Xiang was so frightened that he quickly put his hands on Zhou Tianlei's neck.
This move was too avant-garde in this era, causing the crowd behind him to cheer.
Zhou Tianlei held Cheng Xiang firmly in his arms and walked all the way down to the fourth floor without even the slightest breath.
"My physical strength is so good." Cheng Xiang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
There were many neighbors gathered downstairs, most of them were elders who had watched Cheng Xiang grow up.
"Congratulations, think about it."
"congratulations."
"Oh, what a beautiful bride."
Everyone congratulated Cheng Xiang one after another. Of course, in this happy moment, there would always be inappropriate voices.
"I heard that the military and political commissar will be there in person to congratulate you?"
"Really? Cheng Wanshan is so proud this time."
"The transfer order from the military region has been issued. Cheng Wanshan will soon be transferred to the position of director of the Military Xu Department of the Beijing Region."
"Plain tone?"
"Just kidding, Jing District, this is a promotion. Thanks to her daughter's marriage, it added fuel to his fire and was highly praised by the leaders. Do you understand?"
"Pity this girl, she became a stepping stone for her father's promotion."
"But this guy is good looking."
"No matter how good-looking you are, what's the use? He's still just a country pigherder."
Qin Yutong rolled his eyes and the noisy people instantly silenced.
She quietly took a look and thought, this girl seemed to have really changed a lot. If she had been before, she would have rushed up to greet them with a big slap.
But now the little girl, smiling sweetly without any anger, said to everyone: "Thank you uncles and aunts for your love and care over the years, and thank you brothers and sisters in the compound for their company over the years. As for me, I will get married first, everyone." If you want to eat pork, you are welcome to come to Zhoujiacun Pig Farm, I can go through the back door and leave some good meat for everyone."
"Zhoujiacun Pig Farm? Is it the Zhoujiacun pork sold in the mall?" someone in the crowd asked curiously.
"Yes, it belongs to me." Cheng Xiang said proudly.
"Hey, the supply of meat at that place exceeds the demand."
"No, don't you think it's like selling a household worth ten thousand yuan?"
Cheng Xiang turned around and gave Qin Yutong a look, and then said to everyone: "Thank you all for coming to give me this gift. A little wedding candy is not a sign of respect."
Qin Yutong distributed the wedding candies that had been prepared in his bag.
Everyone stopped talking nonsense and went to grab the wedding candies.
Cheng wanted to turn around and look at Zhou Tianlei's hot eyes. Although he had never belittled himself, Zhou Tianlei was still touched by the fact that she introduced herself so frankly today.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Xiang asked softly.
"It's nothing, let's go home." Zhou Tianlei put his arm around her shoulders.
Cheng Xiang nodded.
Behind them, Zhou He and others had already moved down the dowry, and a truck was filled to the brim.
"Hey, Director Cheng is so generous. With such a dowry, you can get a lot of money."
"No, so many quilts? There's also a sewing machine. There's a lot of bleeding. This Su Qing must be heartbroken."
"I heard that many men bought them as gifts."
"Really? Cheng Xiang, girl, has really found a rich man."
The dowry car was in front, and Zhou Tianlei drove a car himself, with Cheng Xiang behind, and a few motorcycles driven by young men from the village. The girls getting married chose their own motorcycles to ride on.
Qin Yutong walked to Zhou He's car unceremoniously, lifted up his long legs and sat in the back.
Zhou He said with a smile: "Hey, Miss Qin, thank you for the favor, I've done it for you."
A girl saw Chen Tian, who was standing on his long legs and arranging his hair in front of the mirror, and ran over: "Hey, can I take your car?"
Chen Tian smiled at the girl: "Okay, let's get in the car."
Everyone else also chose their cars, and all the cars started and rumbled.
The mighty motorcade filed out of the courtyard, which was very spectacular.
Even people on the street praised: "This scene is rare."
Also, when getting married these days, most families come by bicycle to pick up the bride.
If the conditions are better, even if you set up a bicycle team, it will look quite grand.
It's really rare to see a car and a motorcycle like this.
In the car, Zhou Tianlei turned to look at Cheng and wondered.
She is so beautiful today. She is not pink and white on weekdays. She is like clear water hibiscus, her beauty is light and natural.
I put on makeup today to look charming.
"Drive well."
Cheng Xiang stared straight ahead and warned Zhou Tianlei.
Zhou Tianlei nodded: "Okay"
"There's a question you didn't answer."
Cheng Xiang thought of the question Qin Yutong asked when he blocked the door today.
"What?" Zhou Tianlei asked after hesitation.
Cheng Xiang looked at him and asked with deep eyes, "What do you like about me? But it's not your answer."
She could tell right then that the voice wasn't his.
Indeed, but he never opened the door, he had no choice. After surveying the terrain, he asked Zhou He and the others to attract firepower while he went around from behind, so that question was indeed not his answer.
Zhou Tianlei remained silent and did not respond.
"Huh? Talk" Cheng Xiang asked firmly, do you love me? What do you love about me? This problem has been a common problem among women for thousands of years.
Zhou Tianlei coughed lightly: "I'll tell you later."
"No, let's talk now." Cheng Xiang insisted.
Zhou Tianlei pondered for a moment and asked, "How did Zhou He answer?"
"pretty."
"So superficial?"
"Really? I think it's superficial too."
"Well, I have already asked him to study Chinese with Xin Chen."
"It's just that being uneducated is terrible. So, what's your answer?"
There is no escape after all.
Zhou Tianlei turned to Cheng Xiang, looked at her deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Everything, everything"
Cheng Xiang bit his lip and snickered: "This answer is quite satisfactory."
After about an hour, the car arrived at the entrance of the village.
As soon as I saw the shadow of the car, firecrackers had already been set off here. As the car approached, the firecrackers burst out and bursts of firecrackers made it very lively.
The car stopped in front of the house.
Zhou Tianlei ran over and helped Cheng Xiang get out of the car. Xi Po at the door spread flowers and candies.
All the children and adults in the village rushed over to grab the wedding candies.
There was a lot of noise, laughter and joy.
When Zhou Tianlei got married, the person in charge requested that his stepmother be invited over. Zhou Tianlei was still hesitating, but Aunt Zhou shouted in the street: "He dares not to invite me. If he doesn't invite me, he won't even be able to do it."
Zhou Tianlei was originally unwilling to invite her here to upset Cheng Xiang. When she shouted like this, Zhou Tianlei made up his mind: "She won't be allowed to come."
Although it was not in line with etiquette, the person in charge also knew that Zhou Tianlei had the right temper to speak his mind and did not force it.
Therefore, there is no Gaotang, there are two people, one is a retired soldier, and the other is a woman of the new era. They do not respect ghosts and gods, so they do not worship heaven and earth.
Sent directly to the bridal chamber.
The bed was covered with a bright red quilt, and the room was decorated with joy.
As soon as Cheng Xiang sat down, Qing'er and Zhou Yang ran in.
"Mom, you're finally back." Qing'er threw herself into Cheng Cheng's arms and said aggrievedly, "You've been gone for a few days, and I miss you every day and can't eat. You see, I've lost weight."
Cheng Xiang held up Qing'er's little face and said, "She's still chubby and very cute."
Zhou Yang said from the side: "You don't think about your mother. You think the food cooked by my uncle is not delicious." However, thinking of the food cooked by his uncle, Zhou Yang also trembled in his heart.
I didn't think it was enough to fill my stomach, but then my mother spoiled my appetite. After my mother left, the food cooked by my uncle was almost unpalatable.
Cheng laughed as he thought about it.
"Mom, won't you leave again?" Qing'er asked with her little face raised.
"I'm not leaving." Cheng Xiang said softly.
"That's great." Qing'er jumped up happily.
At this time, Zhou Tian walked over, took out an apple, an orange, and an egg from his pocket, and put them on the table.
Somewhat shyly, he said: "If you are hungry, just pacify your stomach first. You will have to toast later, so I will take them out first."
After saying that, he took Qing'er and Zhou Yang out.
Cheng Xiang was the only one left in the room. She touched the silky quilt, thinking that she would sleep in this quilt with him today. Her heart tightened, she felt a tingling sensation, and her face felt hot.
At this time, the door rang, and Zhou Tianlei walked in, holding a plate with some pastries in his hand.
"I'm afraid you're hungry, let's eat some first." He put the pastries on the table, walked up to Cheng Xiang, and looked down at her.
Cheng Xiang's face heated up when he stared at him, he scratched his head and said softly: "I'm not hungry. Do you want to have a toast later?"
Zhou Tianlei said in a low voice: "I will drink in a while. You don't need to drink. Just follow me."
Cheng Xiang nodded: "Yeah." Although he is greedy for wine, he still shouldn't be too indulgent on his big day, otherwise it will be bad if it delays serious things.
She was daydreaming, her face was shy and cute, Zhou Tianlei reached out to lift her chin, lowered his head and was about to kiss her.
She pushed him away in a panic, knowing that he was now a good kisser, and every time he tossed and licked and bit, it was very abrasive. There were many guests outside, and she didn't want to go out with a painted face.
"The makeup will fade." She pouted and pushed him.
Zhou Tianlei raised the corner of his mouth, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead: "You take a rest for a while, I'll call you later."
Cheng Xiang looked out the door with a smile and exhaled softly.
I picked up the cup and drank some water. I walked to the window and opened the curtains slightly. I saw the yard outside, crowded with people and children running back and forth.
Zhou Tianlei stood at the door to greet the guests. Folks from the village came to congratulate him.
The person responsible for registering the gifts set up a table in the corner of the yard.
At this time, most of the gifts given by the villagers were a piece of cloth, including brightly colored cotton cloth, and the current fashionable fine cloth. Some people gave silk cloth, and some paid money, but most of them were 2 or 3 yuan.
The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy, and the purpose is to make it lively.
A dozen Eight Immortals tables have been set up in the yard, and those who arrived first sat together, cracking melon seeds and chatting.
After a while, there was a commotion outside the door. Everyone stood up and looked outside. It was bustling.
A line of two military jeeps parked outside the gate.
The car stopped, and a few people in military uniforms got out. Cheng Wanshan, who got out of the car behind, trotted over.
Led several people to Zhou Tianlei.
"Tian Lei, this is the political commissar of our military region, Su. He came here specially to congratulate you and Xiang Xiang on your wedding."
Cheng Wanshan respectfully introduced the man beside him to Zhou Tianlei. Although this political commissar Su was tall and wearing a military uniform, he exuded a bookish air.
He looked at Zhou Tianlei with a gentle smile: "Comrade Zhou, congratulations" and extended his hand to Zhou Tianlei.
Zhou Tianlei leaned forward slightly and shook hands with Political Commissar Su. There was no excessive joy or excitement. He was polite and calm: "Thank you, please take a seat inside."
His neither humble nor arrogant attitude surprised Political Commissar Su, but he didn't say anything more, nodded and walked straight into the courtyard.
Cheng Wanshan clicked his tongue at Zhou Tianlei in dissatisfaction, but the would-be son-in-law didn't even look at him and looked outside with an indifferent expression. He shook his head helplessly and quickly followed the leader.
Cheng Xiang looked at this scene from behind the curtains and smiled softly.
The villagers were naturally in awe of people in military uniforms. When they saw them walking in, they consciously gave up their seats and timidly squeezed to other places.
"Zhou Tianlei is not simple this week. He also has acquaintances from the military."
"They should be relatives of the woman."
“It’s incredible”
Everyone gathered together and discussed.
At this time, someone pointed to the door and said, "Isn't that Manager Yang from Zhongzheng Shopping Mall in the city?"
Everyone looked over and saw a man in a Chinese tunic suit holding Zhou Tianlei in his arms and congratulating him with clapping and laughing.
Zhou Tianlei looked indifferent and asked to take Yang Tianrong in.
Yang Tianrong raised his eyebrows at Zhou Tianlei: "Come over later and have a drink."
Zhou Tianlei nodded.
"Does Zhou Tianlei know such a big shot?"
"We have a cooperative relationship, and the meat from Zhou Tianlei Pig Farm is very popular in Zhongzheng Shopping Mall."
"No wonder."
"Oh my god, is that the mayor?"
Someone else exclaimed.
Everyone, look over. Isn’t this the mayor of Longwang Town, Mayor Li?
He shook hands with Zhou Tianlei politely and congratulated him with a smile.
Zhou Tianlei responded in the same polite manner and asked someone to bring the mayor in.
"What's so strange about this? Zhou Tianlei is a big taxpayer in the town, and he also owns a mountain. He is the God of Wealth in the town. The mayor is not allowed to be polite to others?" Someone next to him said with surprise.
Political Commissar Su, who was sitting next to him, listened attentively to the villagers' discussion and looked at Cheng Wanshan: "Wanshan, your son-in-law is out of this world. He is very capable."
Cheng Wanshan sneered: "It's just a small achievement, the political commissar is laughing at it."
