Two generations of military wives compete for time

Chapter 117 Qian Yiyun's Flash Marriage

Ever since Chairman Wang Hengxiu met Gu Chunlei, Gu Chunlei's mother, and Gu Chunlei's mentally retarded brother, Chairman Wang Hengxiu seemed to have found a soul purifier.

When facing the kind-hearted and simple mother and her two children, Chairman Wang Hengxiu can always calm down and get along harmoniously with the three of them. He has no guard, no stimulation of the bright lights and wine, and no intrigue. Living in a quiet farmyard, his sleep quality is greatly improved and he can sleep soundly until dawn.

Chairman Wang Hengxiu made a decision to turn over a new leaf, stop living a life of extravagance and extravagance, and deposit the money he saved into a special account, setting aside a sum of money every year to help poor families in the mountainous areas improve their housing conditions.

The Chen family cleaned up the place from top to bottom, hung red lanterns, pasted red wedding characters and red couplets inside and outside. Qian Yiyun and Zhang Pengfei finally got married, and the auspicious time for their wedding had arrived.

The Chen family's dowry was loaded onto the wedding car one by one according to the list:

Grandma Chen Yalu, Grandma Lu Jingde, Sister-in-law Hao Xia, Cousin Chen Mengwei, Grandma Huang, and Professor Jiang Yuhan personally sewed eight sets of wedding quilts, mattresses, and sheets.

My cousin Han Shiyan, on behalf of our relatives in Hong Kong, presented Hong Kong brand-name products: a tape recorder, a camera, and two Swiss watches for couples, which were carefully wrapped in red paper.

Grandpa Lu Kaipu and grandma Chen Yalu gave her a set of gold rings, gold bracelets and gold necklaces.

Grandpa Kuang and Grandma Huang presented the descendants' barrel, sugar jar, and Kuang's old-style wine.

Grandma Lu Jingde presented a painting she had drawn herself, “Flowers in Bloom, Bringing Wealth”, which means: butterflies fall in love with peonies, and good fortune comes in abundance.

Sister-in-law Hao Xia presented a piece of embroidery she had done herself, "Mandarin Ducks Playing in the Water", which meant that husband and wife lived in harmony and loved each other.

Qian Yizhen and Wang Min carefully prepared everything for the bride Qian Yiyun, including the wedding veil, ceremony veil, toast dress, underwear, wedding shoes, veil, etc.

Professor Jiang Yuhan carefully prepared a dowry box, which included: washbasin, teapot, mirror, towel, toothbrush, tooth cup, cosmetics, etc.

My great uncle Chen Haoyu presented me with 20 hardcover volumes of “The 20 Greatest Chinese Classics”.

Uncle Chen Zhuoran, father Qian Guangzong, sister Qian Yizhen, brother-in-law Ming Yuanhui, brother Qian Zuhua, and sister-in-law Wang Min jointly presented a car.

The military beauties who support the army, love the army, and strengthen the army used their own New Year's money to jointly invest in decorating the wedding room for my aunt, including door-blocking props, decorative wedding characters, streamers, balloons, etc.

According to local wedding customs, when a girl gets married, a man from her natal family has to carry the bride from her boudoir to the wedding sedan chair. Qian Yizhen and Qian's father told Qian Zuhua in advance: "When the groom's wedding car team arrives at the Chen residence, Qian Zuhua will be responsible for carrying his sister Qian Yiyun to the wedding car."

"This is superstition, I won't carry you." Qian Zuhua refused without thinking. Qian's father was so angry that he couldn't speak. Qian Yizhen was helpless and went to Qian Yiyun to discuss: "Can we change the custom of carrying the bride to the wedding car with red silk and let the groom Zhang Pengfei lead you to the wedding car?"

"Sister, I know Qian Zuhua doesn't want to carry me into the wedding car. If he really wants to carry me, I won't let him. I will walk my own way. Don't be angry with him." Qian Yiyun said.

"Sister, don't worry, I won't be angry. When the time comes, I will let Zhang Pengfei carry me to the wedding car, hahaha." Qian Yiyun added.

The auspicious time has arrived. The groom Zhang Pengfei, wearing a military uniform and holding flowers, stepped into the gate of the Chen residence. He passed all the checkpoints and distributed red envelopes along the way and came to Qian Yiyun's boudoir. Qian Yiyun was wearing a bright red Chinese bridal dress and a red veil on her head. She held Zhang Pengfei's hand. The best man Li Baoguo and the bridesmaid Han Shiyan protected them on both sides. Everyone in the Chen residence, wearing their favorite clothes and red flowers on their chests, followed closely behind them, watching Qian Yiyun and Zheng Pengfei get into the wedding car. The dowry was also loaded into the car in an orderly manner.

Firecrackers blasted and wedding candies flew everywhere, attracting many passers-by to stop and watch. The wedding car started and slowly drove towards the love nest and the wedding venue of the Qingfeng Hotel.

Chairman Wang Hengxiu arrived at Chen's residence in a dusty state and presented a generous gift. Ming Yuanhui and Qian Yizhen arranged a separate banquet for Chairman Wang Hengxiu, Wang Min, Qian Zuhua, Professor Jiang Yuhan, and Xiangxiang.

Qian Yizhen had already informed Wang Min and Qian Zuhua of the intention of this arrangement, and Wang Min and Qian Zuhua had no objection.

Chairman Wang Hengxiu sat down, Qian Yizhen introduced Chairman Wang Hengxiu and Qian Zuhua to each other, Qian Zuhua reluctantly called out: "Dad." Qian Yizhen picked up Xiangxiang from Professor Jiang Yuhan's arms: "Hello Qian Shishu, this is grandpa, Grandpa Wang Hengxiu, let Grandpa hug you, okay."

Qian Shishu looked at the stranger in front of her, then looked at Qian Yizhen, and smiled shyly at Chairman Wang Hengxiu. Chairman Wang Hengxiu immediately opened his arms with a smile on his face: "Xiangxiang, Grandpa hugs you." Xiangxiang raised her little hand without hesitation and asked Grandpa Wang Hengxiu to hug her.

Ming Yuanhui struck while the iron was hot and said, "See? This is the reason for blood ties."

Chairman Wang Hengxiu hugged Xiangxiang, took out a bank card from his pocket and put it in Xiangxiang's hand: "This is a gift from grandpa to Xiangxiang, please accept it." Chairman Wang Hengxiu turned around and said to Qian Yizheng: "The bank card password is the last six digits of your ID card." Wang Min did not refuse or object.

Qian Zuhua said: "Xiangxiang, thank you grandpa."

Military beauties, supporting the army, loving the army, and strengthening the army asked: "Mom, do everyone have to get married when they grow up? Is it okay not to get married?" "People have to get married when they grow up. This is a necessity for human reproduction from generation to generation. Getting married, having children, and raising children are standard features of life." Qian Yizhen explained.

"It's OK not to get married, but that's only for a very small number of people. The 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization is all about the older generation getting married, having children, raising children, and then raising the next generation. When the next generation's children grow up, they get married, have children, and raise children again, and so on, generation after generation, over and over again. This is how the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization has been passed down. Do you understand?"

Hongmei and Niuniu teased Sanjun, "Little brat, wait until you grow up before considering marriage and having kids. It's shameful to think about marriage now, hehe."

"Sister Hongmei, Sister Niuniu, you are going to take the college entrance examination next year. Once you are admitted, you can think about marriage. Don't forget about it then." Junhua reminded, and Hongmei and Niuniu blushed a little.

Qian Yiyun's ex-boyfriend Zhou Wenzhao came to Chen's house silently, handed the gift to the accountant, and received a bag of wedding candy. Grandpa Lu Kaipu came over to greet Zhou Wenzhao. Zhou Wenzhao politely greeted the elders one by one and wanted to turn around and leave. Grandma Chen Yalu warmly invited him to stay in Chen's house for wedding wine. Zhou Wenzhao left Chen's house on the grounds that he had something to do at work.

Zhou Wenzhao came to the wedding of Qian Yiyun and Zhang Pengfei at Qingfeng Hotel again, and stood in the distance silently watching. The pain and self-blame in his heart were beyond words. Zhou Wenzhao hummed Yang Yuying's "Heart Rain" in his heart:

My thoughts are like an unreachable and untouchable net.

My longing is no longer a bursting sea.

Why do I always think of you deeply on those rainy days?

My heart is the love of June, with the rain of heart falling.

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you, I miss you for the last time.

Because tomorrow, you will become someone else's bride, allowing me to miss you for the last time.

My thoughts are an untouchable net.

My longing is no longer a bursting sea.

Why do I always think of you deeply on those rainy days?
