Chapter 1215 Luxurious but not luxurious
On October 1st, the sun shines brightly and the autumn wind brings joy...
A luxurious wedding carriage was decorated with red colors and slowly drove into Xicheng District. Wei Wei's family lived in the Great Wall Hotel. Xiao Yuanhang's welcome convoy was the bride who was greeted by the Great Wall Hotel. As soon as the convoy arrived at the main entrance of the Siheyuan, there were sounds of salutes and firecrackers. The two three-phase doors of the Siheyuan courtyard were completely open. Two rows of welcoming ladies wearing cheongsams were neatly standing on both sides. These beautiful figures and sweet-looking welcoming ladies were invited by the wedding company from the model company, adding a beautiful scenery out of thin air.
As the sound of firecrackers gradually subsided, Xiao Yuanhang was wearing a silver-white wedding dress, a white shirt, a red tie, and a bouquet of fiery red roses in his hand. With the company of Huang Xiaoqiang and his relatives and friends, he welcomed him out of the gate. Because Wang Dahai was already married, the best man's glorious task could only be handed over to the unmarried Xiaoqiang.
Everyone walked to the wedding car that the bride Wei Wei was riding. Xiao Yuanhang opened the door for her. A standard gentleman bowed and greeted the gift. The bride Wei Wei walked out of the car lightly with her wedding dress in her hand. Then the bridesmaid Wei Shan also got off the car, and the unmarried sister was the bridesmaid. This was Wei Shan's strong request, and Wei Wei would of course not object.
Xiao Yuanhang held the rose in both hands and gave it to Wei Wei. After Wei Wei took it with both hands, he held the rose in one hand and held Xiao Yuanhang's arm in the other, and walked into the gate.
As soon as you enter the gate, there are 1.5-meter-high flower walls built with roses on both sides, extending to the square in front of the main room of the yard. When you arrive at the square, you draw two outer arcs to both sides, surrounding the entire square, and make them all with fiery red roses. There is a huge red double-happy character on the windows of the wing rooms on both sides, flowers, colorful flags, and colorful balloons decorate the main room with a joyful scene.
This square is actually the original parking lot, with colorful walls made of five-color roses on both sides. When it extends to the square, a moon door made of flowers is formed. A bright red carpet is laid in the middle of the flower wall. A 1.5-meter-high color platform is set up in front of the square. A huge banner is written on the color platform, which warmly celebrates Mr. Xiao Yuanhang and Miss Wei Wei's wedding. On the stage are famous hosts of CCTV's program, Li Zhefu and Zhong Liming. They are the hosts of the wedding specially invited by Xu Wenye.
There were rows of seats under the stage, some were empty now, and some were sitting guests. Xiao Yuanhang and Wei Wei entered the gate, and the guests turned around and looked at them. The band on the lower side of the stage played a special welcome song...
Xiao Yuanhang and Wei Wei walked into the rose flower path, gathered on both sides to cheer and bless, while raising the rose petals in their hands high and falling to their heads. Suddenly, the five-color rose petals were dancing all over the sky, falling on Xiao Yuanhang and Wei Wei's heads and shoulders. They nodded to greet everyone while slowly moving forward.
Through the moon gate made of flowers, we came to the color platform. Xiao Yuanhang and Wei Wei waved to everyone. Then we got off the color platform and passed through the main room of the first yard to the new house in the second yard. According to traditional wedding customs, we first carried out a series of procedures such as sitting for blessings and hanging incense. After these procedures were completed, the wedding ceremony was officially held...
Although Xiao Yuanhang did not want to have a big show, he could not withstand the repeated persuasion of Xu Wenye and others. There was only one wedding in his life, and even people in the system would have to be luxurious once, and it was not without this condition. Xiao Yuanhang could not resist their offensive, so he had to set the eight-character principle of "traditional, wealthy, introverted, and low-key". Seeing that Xiao Yuanhang had made concessions, Xu Wenye and others had to organize the wedding according to his wishes.
The wedding ceremony was about to begin, and the guests entered the venue one after another. Mr. Xu did not come to Xiao Yuanhang's wedding in person today, but Xu Wenbo specially returned to the capital from Guhe and attended Xiao Yuanhang's wedding on behalf of the Xu family. They also came with Xu Wenbo, including Secretary-General Guo Xiaoquan, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee Ma Wanli, Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office Huang Zhiling and others.
However, today Minister Chang attended Xiao Yuanhang's wedding in person, and attended with him also his wife Liu Ye, which means that he attended in a private capacity. However, the cadres of the Northern Railway Transportation Bureau did not think so when they saw Minister Chang coming. Today, all members of the leadership team of the General Administration attended Xiao Yuanhang's wedding. In addition, Huang Yong, deputy director of Liaodong Railway Bureau, and Song Zhentai, deputy director of Bingcheng Railway Bureau, also arrived in the capital to attend Xiao Yuanhang's wedding. Even Director Hua, who was in charge of freight in Jincheng Railway, rushed over.
Luo Guangxi, deputy director of Tongshui Railway Branch, Tang Zhenglin, Guhe Stationmaster, Huang Zhigang, Party Secretary of Guhe Locomotive Section, and Xiao Yuanhang's relatives and friends also rushed to attend his wedding. Wu Yuehua, captain of the Beijing City fleet of Songjiang Railway Section, also took the opportunity to take the extra ride to come to Beijing. Jiang Xuefang, chief of the education section of Guhe Station, and Xu Yanchun, captain of the passenger transport team of Guhe Railway Section, also rushed to Beijing together. This moved Xiao Yuanhang very much. What he didn't expect was that Fang Ying, deputy director of the Transportation Department of the East China Railway Bureau, and Yuan Ying, political commissar of the Lingnan Police Detachment, also rushed over.
In the main seat in front of the Caitai were Xiao Qiliang and Bai Shuxian, Xiao Yuanhang's parents, on the left were Minister Chang and his wife, on the right were Wei Wei's uncle, who represented Wei Wei's parents, and Xu Wenbo took his seat next to Minister Chang and his wife. The positions of other leaders were arranged in advance by the waiter. Since there were too many people coming to attend the wedding today, many people were standing by the flower wall.
On the color platform, Li Zhefu's black suit, white shirt and red tie, big eyes, a national-shaped face, and a thick baritone with a very generous feeling, giving people a sense of loyalty and integrity. Zhong Liming held his hair high and his long skirt embellished with the ground. His face was white and crystal clear, and his voice was extremely sweet.
The soothing music sounded, and Li Zhefu's unique baritone voice also sounded: "Before the wedding is officially held, I am very honored to introduce today's guests. The guests who attended the wedding of Mr. Xiao Yuanhang and Miss Wei Wei are Minister Chang of the Ministry of Railways!" Before Li Zhefu's voice fell, the band immediately played a warm welcome music. Minister Chang stood up and waved to greet everyone, and the audience suddenly applauded thunderously!
Zhong Liming's sweet voice sounded: "The guests who came to attend Mr. Xiao Yuanhang today and Miss Wei Wei's wedding include Xu Wenbo, Deputy Secretary of Tongshui Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of Guhe Municipal Party Committee... Wu Chuanqi, Director of the Northern Railway Transportation Bureau of the Ministry of Railways..."
Xiao Yuanhang is a cadre on the railway. Not only did Minister Chang and other senior leaders of the railway system attend his wedding, but even local government officials also attended the event, not to mention business elites and foreign friends. What a glory it was. Not to mention Xiao Yuanhang and Wei Wei, even the guests who attended felt light on their faces, applause one after another, and it took a long time. The band also improvised, pushing the warm atmosphere to a climax...
After introducing the guests, Li Zhefu said loudly: "The wedding ceremony begins now, and the salutes are fired!" As soon as his voice fell, a huge salute sounded, and at the same time, firecrackers were fired. Everything was calculated in advance. After twenty-four salutes sounded, the sound of firecrackers also stopped.
"Please give a couple of newcomers!" Before Zhong Liming's voice fell, the band played the classic Christian wedding marches. In the light wedding marches, Wei Wei held a bouquet of roses in one hand and Xiao Yuanhang in the other hand. In the rain of flowers in the sky, he floated out of the flower wall, stepped out of the moon gate and came to the colorful platform, smiling and applauding.
Next is a series of procedures such as traditional marriage certificate, exchange rings, speech by the man's parents, speech by the woman's parents, speech by the unit leader, drinking a glass of wine, etc. The man's parents' speech by Xiao Qiliang of course, and sent a few good wishes. The woman's parents' speech was spoken by Wei Wei's uncle. The unit leader's speech was spoken by Wu Chuanqi, director of the Northern Railway Transportation Bureau. Finally, Minister Chang sent his best wishes!
In the middle of the wedding, several celebrities invited by Ye Zi interspersed on stage to perform and cheer up. The Qi Hongliu sisters also came with Ye Zi to cheer up, which made the whole wedding atmosphere very enthusiastic. The guests were very excited to see several big-name stars coming to cheer up, and they were very excited and applauded desperately...
The wedding was compact and warm, with a lingering sound, which made people feel endless aftertaste. Xiao Yuanhang's wedding was held in the courtyard, and the wedding banquet was arranged at the Great Wall Hotel, where only various drinks and fruits were prepared. Xu Wenye included all the floors of the Great Wall Hotel's Chinese restaurant. As soon as the wedding ended, everyone drove to the Great Wall Hotel.
There were not many banquets today. There were more than 30 tables in the hall, and more than ten tables in the private room, with a total of less than fifty tables. Although Xiao Yuanhang tried his best to control the number of people attending, the people who came were still far beyond his expectations. This did not end. Xu Wenye and others immediately asked for another 10 private rooms and urgently added 10 tables...
Xiao Yuanhang married Wei Wei today. The happiest thing was his father Xiao Qiliang and his mother Bai Shuxian. Minister Chang and his wife were accompanied by the table of the Northern Railway Transportation Bureau. Xiao Qiliang worked on the railway all his life and was also a middle-level cadre. But the biggest cadre he met in his life was a director of the Railway Bureau and a deputy branch director of the Railway Branch. This year, he could sit with Minister Chang and some directors and deputy directors, just like a dream...
Xiao Dongmei was accompanying Xu Wenbo and the Guhe City leaders. Xiao Dongmei is now the Party Working Committee Secretary of the Tiedong Street Office. She is familiar with Xu Wenbo, Guo Xiaoquan and Ma Wanli. She also knows that their relationship with her younger brother Xiao Yuanhang is unusual, so she is not restrained, but frequently persuades her to drink...
Brother-in-law Zhang Guohao went to Tang Zhenglin and others to accompany him. In addition to the relevant leaders of Guhe Station, Huang Zhigang, the Party Secretary of the Guhe Locomotive Section, was also at this table. Huang Zhigang was shocked to see Minister Chang and his wife attending Xiao Yuanhang's wedding in person. Xiao Yuanhang was able to jump from Guhe Stationmaster to become the director of the Comprehensive Planning Department of the General Administration of Northern Railway Transportation. He finally found the answer today! (To be continued...)
