I add points to my martial arts in the real world

In Dongguan, wedding receptions usually take place at night. There is also a word called bride snatching.

Usually the groom will call some people of the same age, drive to the bride's house in the middle of the night, and "rob" the girl out. Fortunately, in recent years, the bride is still very civilized when snatching the bride.

In the past, it would really make a lot of noise, and even the door would be demolished directly.

However, these are local customs and can be understood by local people, so there will be no bad effects.

After the bride snatching was over, in the middle of the night, the wedding car drove around the city on the ring road. They flashed double flashes and did not occupy the fast lane. It was just a show off to everyone after the bride snatching was successful.

This process will start after twelve o'clock and continue until the morning. They hold the wedding not at noon but at dinner.

Generally speaking, Dongguan still attaches great importance to traditional culture. Of course, due to changes in the times, it has become more civilized in the process, and many new things have been added.

Qian Dong is already married, and he is not a local. As the saying goes, he is a guest from afar. Even if he arrived yesterday and went to grab the bride, Qian Dong would not be invited to go with him, so it was almost the same if he came today.

"Listening to what you said, it seems quite interesting."

Gong Yan was sitting in the car listening to Qian Dong talking about these things, and found it quite interesting.

Her wedding with Qian Dong was very traditional and Chinese-style. She never thought that Dongguan would be so different from weddings in other places.

"You have never seen the scene of a bride snatching. It was like a war. It was very chaotic, but it has not been like this in recent years."

Qian Dong twitched the corner of his mouth. He still remembered that when he came to Dongguan, a local colleague got married, and he also went to snatch the bride.

He was stunned to forcefully tear down the big iron gate of the bride's house, which he couldn't understand at all, but the excitement was really lively.

"Well, are we going directly to the wedding venue?"

Gong Yan asked curiously.

"It's not easy to stay at Zhou Qiang's house this time. When we arrive, we will get a room nearby, attend the wedding in the hotel in the afternoon, and then stay in the hotel in the evening."

I used to go to Zhou Qiang's house. He didn't have a girlfriend at that time, so it didn't matter if he stayed at their house. But it's different now. It's not suitable to live there anymore.

In just over an hour, the vehicle had already parked near Zhou Qiang's village community.

Qian Dong and Gong Yan went to a room first and put down their luggage. In fact, the so-called luggage was the clothes Gong Yan took off on the plane.

It was only a few degrees in Kyoto, so Gong Yan was wearing something thick, but the sun was shining outside and the temperature was over 20 degrees, so Gong Yan naturally changed into comfortable clothes.

As for other luggage, except for the wedding gift Qian Dong brought to Zhou Qiang, there was nothing else. After Gong Yan became pregnant, she rarely even put on makeup, and Qian Dong always carried her mobile phone.

After putting their things away, the two slowly walked towards Zhou Qiang's home. It was still early and Zhou Qiang was still entertaining some relatives and friends at home. They would not go to the hotel until later.

From a distance, you can see Zhou Qiang's villa decorated with lights and people coming and going. Zhou Qiang is wearing a Chinese-style red gown with light makeup on his face. Standing next to him is a petite woman wearing a red cheongsam. .

"Xiaoqiang, congratulations."

Qian Dong walked over with Gong Yan and shouted to Zhou Qiang who was standing at the door.

"Brother Dong, why are you here just now? There is also sister-in-law. Hello, sister-in-law. This is my wife Zhang Tong. Wife, this is Brother Dong and his wife that I said."

When Zhou Qiang saw Qian Dong coming, the smile on his face became even brighter. After saying hello to Qian Dong, he started to introduce Qian Dong.

"Brother Dong, sister-in-law."

Zhang Tong was very generous and his tone was gentle as he called out to the two of them.

"Happy wedding, come, here is a wedding gift for you two."

Gong Yan walked up and handed a small red bag in her hand to Zhang Tong. What Gong Yan handed over was a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants prepared by the two. The price of more than 1 yuan was not very good, but it was still worth it. It's not shabby. Normally, a red envelope of [-] yuan would be enough. However, Qian Dong and the two of them were making this trip, so just a red envelope was not appropriate.

"This…"

Zhang Tong looked at the bag, took it easily, and turned to look at Zhou Qiang beside him.

"Haha, just accept what my sister-in-law gave me."

Zhou Qiang didn't care. The last time Qian Dong came over, he realized that Qian Dong was no longer what he used to be. In the past, the two had similar interests and had fun.

But after Qian Dong left last time, he saw some of Qian Dong's videos through Shen Shishi, and that's when he realized that Qian Dong actually had this real skill.

This is why he took the initiative to invite Qian Dong to come to his wedding this time.

Logically speaking, Qian Dong did not call him when he got married, and Qian Dong is not in Dongguan now. The relationship between the two is not the kind of deep contact, so it is normal not to invite Qian Dong.

But he still invited him. As the saying goes, there are many friends and many paths, and it is always right to associate with capable people. This is what Zhou Qiang's father taught him.

"Brother Dong, sister-in-law, please go inside and sit down for a while and have a cup of tea. Be sure to have a few more cups when you go to the hotel."

Zhou Qiang brought the two people into the house, and then went out to greet the guests with Zhang Tong.

The people sitting in the house were all guests who had arrived from far away. The wedding banquet in the hotel had not yet started, so they were drinking tea and chatting at home.

"A Dong, drink tea first."

Zhou Qiang's father poured tea for Qian Dong and then started chatting.

When it was past three o'clock, we went to the hotel we had booked nearby.

When locals hold weddings, they give priority to old hotels. They are used to having morning tea here, and the taste of old hotels is more in line with local tastes.

Zhou Qiang and Zhang Tong came over to say hello and then went over first. The people in the hotel there had already arranged the scene, and they needed to go there in advance to entertain the guests who came over for the wedding banquet.

When the time was almost up, Zhou Qiang's father walked to the restaurant with his guests.

This wedding was still more Chinese-style. Zhang Tong put on Chinese wedding clothes, and Zhou Qiang did the same, but the specific process was not like Qian Dong and Gong Yan. They just performed the wedding ceremony on the hotel stage.

It was not as solemn and traditional as Qian Dong and Gong Yan's wedding, but had more of a modern wedding atmosphere.

"It seems that more and more Chinese weddings are being used now."

Gong Yan watched the two people on the stage serving tea to their parents and then chatted in Qian Dong's ear.

"Well, yes, people nowadays have discovered that Western culture is actually like that. In the final analysis, the things of our ancestors are more ritualistic." Qian Dong and the other two were sitting in the audience, surrounded by guests taking photos with their mobile phones. .

After the ceremony, the wedding banquet began. Zhou Qiang's father came to the stage to speak and thanked the guests, and the waiters began to serve the dishes.

It goes without saying that the dishes are Cantonese cuisine. As for the grandness of the banquet, it depends on the value of the seafood on the table.

In hotels, tables usually range from [-] to [-]. For the same table, or even the same dish name, the difference in price can make a world of difference.

Qian Dong looked at the lobsters, crabs, abalones and Eastern star spots that were served, and knew that this table was not cheap.

The locals never hold banquets for gifts or other things. Qian Dong has been in Dongguan for so many years, but the money for only two things has not changed.

One is for a wedding banquet, which has always been two hundred red envelopes, and the other is for New Year's Eve, which has never changed from five yuan to ten yuan and 20 yuan.

After a good meal, the newlyweds and couples who had changed out of their formal attire would toast each table under the leadership of the elders, and the guests would also say some blessings. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

Southerners have small appetites, and they usually cannot finish the dishes on the table. Normally, guests will ask for the leftover dishes to be taken away to avoid waste.

So in this case, Qian Dong didn't let go of his appetite to eat and drink, there was no need.

After the meal, Qian and Dong walked downstairs.

"Brother Dong, sister-in-law, have you eaten? You are staying at my house today."

Zhou Qiang and Zhang Tong stood at the door of the hotel early to say goodbye to the guests who came to attend the wedding banquet. When they saw Qian Dong and Gong Yan coming down, they hurried over to say hello.

"We've eaten and drank. We've booked the hotel and we're going back now. You guys should be busy."

Qian Dong said a few words to Zhou Qiang, then took Gong Yan and walked toward the hotel nearby.

Early the next morning, Zhou Qiang and his family refused to stay, so they took a taxi and set off towards Foshan.

When someone else just got married, there was no need for them to go over and join in the fun. Maybe the two of them had other honeymoon plans. If Qian Dong didn't leave, he might put the other party in a dilemma.

So, it’s better to be more conscious.

This time I came here quite suddenly, and I didn't mention it to Grandpa Dong in advance, but it didn't matter much. Anyway, the two of them had nothing to do at the moment. This time I came here mainly to relax and travel.

The vehicle stopped and Qian Dong located the place for the driver, which was not far from the Dong family villa that he had visited last time. The two of them got out of the car and walked two steps to reach the place.

"Ding dong ding dong~"

I rang the doorbell and waited at the door.

"Eh? Adong and Yanyan, why are you here? I didn't hear my grandpa mention that you were coming. Please come in, come in and sit down."

It was Dong Mingsheng's mother who opened the door. She was a little surprised to see Qian Dong and Gong Yan, but she immediately greeted them warmly.

The last time she came, Dong Mingsheng's mother was not as enthusiastic as she is now. At that time, she was only polite and not enthusiastic towards the two of them.

"Auntie, I just dropped in here this time, so I didn't tell Grandpa Dong about it. Is Grandpa Dong at home?"

Qian Dong smiled and handed over the two bottles of wine he bought in the morning, and then followed him into the house. He didn't speak until he came to the sofa.

"Grandpa went out to play. You guys have tea while I make a phone call."

The aunt made tea and brought some fruit by the way, placing it in front of the two of them. Then she went to the side and took out her mobile phone and started to make a call.

No wonder she has become so enthusiastic now. Last time, she just regarded the two of them and Shen Shishi as ordinary young people from Grandpa Dong's hometown who came to see Grandpa Dong.

Even though Grandpa Dong was very interested in Qian Dong at that time, she didn't pay much attention to it. After all, they were too far apart. From what she heard, Qian Dong was from his hometown, while Gong Yan and Shen Shishi were from Kyoto. They were far apart from each other, and his family was in the open area. Factory, even if the three of them have some money and status, it has nothing to do with their family.

So that attitude is naturally not enthusiastic.

But after Qian Dong left last time, their factory's orders immediately increased sharply. Originally, the economy started to be depressed this year, and many factories were not doing well. They laid off employees and countless companies closed down.

As a result, their factory has a tendency to become popular. His husband has even gone to see the land now, and it seems that he is preparing to open a third factory.

And all this, according to his husband's opinion, those people who came to place orders only came here for Qian Dong's sake.

So when she saw Qian Dong again, she couldn't help but become enthusiastic. This kind of thing is human nature. Who would have trouble with Qian?

Qian Dong didn't notice the change in her attitude. He only met her twice in total, and he didn't do anything rude last time.

"My grandpa will be back soon. Thanks to Adong, the factory's business has improved a lot this year. The factory is planning to expand recently. My old boss has been out to make connections. He happened to be out of town today and couldn't make it back."

Auntie put down her mobile phone and filled the tea for the two of them again.

"Thank you, auntie. We have nothing to do here this time. We just came to see Grandpa Dong. Uncle Dong is busy so we won't disturb him."

"Okay, okay, by the way, you guys sit down first, I'll arrange for someone to cook the meal right away."

The aunt seemed to have thought of something, looked at the time, and invited Qian Dong to drink tea. She quickly went to the side to contact the hotel. She still remembered Qian Dong's appetite. It was okay for her to cook home-cooked meals occasionally, but now Qian Dong would definitely come over. I was treated well, so I quickly contacted the hotel to arrange for the chef to bring the ingredients.

"Auntie, where is A Sheng? Why didn't you see him?"

He still remembered that Dong Mingsheng seemed to be a bit of a homebody. Logically speaking, he should be at home in the morning. However, they had not seen Dong Mingsheng come out for so long, so naturally they couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, Ah Sheng, he went on a business trip with him. Now his father is teaching Ah Sheng to take care of daily affairs. When the time comes for the third factory, Ah Sheng will go there and be the deputy director. After he gets familiar with the operation of the factory, When the time comes, let him take charge of the entire factory.”

When the aunt said this, she couldn't help but smile. She had no reason not to smile. Her family's business was booming, her son had begun to learn how to do business, and her father-in-law was not too busy. Anyone would be happy to live in this kind of life.

The chef at the restaurant acted very quickly and arrived at home within half an hour, but Grandpa Dong hadn't returned home yet.

"A Dong, Yan Yan, you drink tea first. I'll go and tell the master and the others that you can eat and live at home. I'll go down and clean up your room later."

After the aunt finished speaking, she got up and went to discuss the menu with the chef.

They live in a villa, but they don't have a nanny or anything like that. They only have an hourly union to come and clean the house on time. There is no chef at home on weekdays. They cook their own meals or order takeaways. Only important guests or holidays will invite chefs. A guest at home.

"A Dong, you are just here at the right time. Someone posted a message about Lao Li's martial arts gym, saying that they are coming to compete. I just came back from their martial arts gym. Let's go there together tomorrow to see the excitement." (End of this chapter.) )
