Chapter 2031 Group Wedding ([-])

"Master Dao has a lot to enjoy! You don't need to flatter me. You are a bald donkey, but you are a genius!" Cui Hantang laughed.

Shi Tong'an knew that although he scolded "bald donkey", he actually enjoyed this set of flattery quite a lot, so he was very happy and said with a smile: "The Taoist priest is a person who has attained the Tao in Australia, so naturally he doesn't like these enjoyments. It's just that if it's useful If you get it, just tell the poor monk."

Cui Hantang laughed loudly and said, "Okay, if I have something useful, I will definitely tell you first."

After sending Shi Tong'an away, Cui Hantang's frustration because of Li Suiqiu's failure to flick away was swept away-it was just a Li Suiqiu, what's the big deal.Let's see if you're still awesome when the tax bureau swallows your bones!On the contrary, there are quite a few clever people in Li Qiushui's group - they can be considered for acceptance.After all, Li Suiqiu's life is very easy now, and these literati are very poor...

The fundraising operation was a great success under the operation of Cui Hantang.Although he was "satisfied" a lot, with the efforts of all parties, the money for the collective wedding and the repair of the wedding house for the newlyweds have been settled.Everyone is happy.

According to the general group wedding process, the whole group usually "parade in the city" first, but it is impossible to do a parade in Guangzhou city - after all, the streets are narrow and horse-drawn carriages cannot run, so they can only use rickshaws, which is too shabby .So I used "Pearl River Parade" instead.

During the parade, people usually take group photos in front of churches, city halls, or some special landmark attractions. There is really no such condition in the local area. It is convenient to omit this step. Take a group photo at the World Square.Then the wedding started right there.

The venue for the wedding is located in the square outside the Great World—the city is still too cramped and lacks venues for large-scale mass events.Not only can it accommodate thousands of people to observe, but it is also easy to guard and evacuate.The key is that there are necessary sound amplification and lighting equipment for mass gatherings and performances.

As for the wedding ceremony, they did not adopt the "Chinese style" proposed by the "Huaxia Society", but also rejected the "Western style" proposed by Wu Shimang and others, and finally denied the "revolutionary" proposed by the Spartacus Society.In the end, the so-called "Australian style" was adopted, which is actually a simplified version of the old space-time wedding company.The theatrical performance was performed by the Plaid Skirt Club with its own dry food - Wu Ciren went to Guangzhou specially for this matter, it is said to "investigate the traffic security situation in Guangdong".

As for this ceremony, it is unavoidable to invite several "leaders" to speak, witness marriage and so on.Liu Xiang was very happy to be the witness, but Fang Fei finally decided to ask Wen Desi to be the witness—it might not be because he was the "biggest official", but because Fang Fei thought his name was good. "De heir" can be derived as "de heir", the original intention is also very good, it is a great fortune for newlyweds.

After the ceremony, there was a wedding banquet. There were 76 new couples, relatives and friends who came to congratulate them, and people from all walks of life who attended the wedding. There were about 500 people in total.According to the calculation of a table for eight people, it is [-] tables.Neither the Ziming Building nor the local restaurants can handle this scale, or they have to use the special openings for weddings and weddings as chefs.It is also very troublesome to build a shed, repair the stove, and hire a waiter, which also has hygiene and various disadvantages.In the end, Fang Fei made a decision: Serve the buffet!

The biggest advantage of a buffet is that it does not require too many service personnel. Mu Min is quite worried about gathering too many guests for a group wedding.If there is a banquet for a table of eight people, there will be 200-[-] people just for the cook, the waiter and the waiter who serve the dishes.There is a lot of pressure to maintain order.

Fang Fei was so busy that his feet never touched the ground, and Liu Yikun, the person in charge of the big world, was also very busy.For a time, the entire Guangzhou Municipal Government seemed to be revolving around the collective wedding.Even the people in the streets and alleys were also infected with this joy - newspapers and posters have spread the news all over Yangcheng.Those shops or big households who "donated" or "rejoiced" through various channels, all of them puffed up their chests, bragging about the so-called "secrets" they didn't know at all-in fact, they were all hearsay and all kinds of brain supplements. came.

In this joyful atmosphere, the day for holding a collective wedding finally came: September 1636, 9——Liu Xiang joked that this was the day when school started.

"That's right, married life is also learning." Fang Fei smiled, "Family is a school. We came here not only to change the old marriage system, but also to change the old family life."

Early in the morning, the married women gathered in the "Guangdong Provincial Temporary Shelter" woke up - they had taken a bath last night and changed into brand new inner and outer clothes.The wedding dress was custom-made in Lingao, funded and sponsored by Huaxia Club. It was a red dress with elements of Hanfu, adhering to the basic style of traditional Hanfu women's clothing, with the upper jacket and lower skirt, and using modern cutting technology to make it more slim and fit. Easy to move.

They have already trimmed their hair in advance - in order to reduce the time for dressing up, and also to promote "new women", all hairstyles are simple and modern, without buns, just for this wedding, everyone rubbed a flower on the sideburns Special red velvet flowers.It looks gorgeous yet simple.

When the bride's clothes were taken out, the brides were amazed—they had never seen such a beautiful dress, not only the cutting and decoration were gorgeous, but also the fabric was unmistakable, all of which were high-quality silk.In the past, when they leaned on the door to sell their laughter, the best clothes were just a few poor cocoon dresses.

"So lovely!"

"These clothes are Australian clothes, I've never seen anything like this..."

"I didn't expect that there would be a day when I would wear a red dress—it's so dead that I shut my eyes and mouth."

"What do you say on the day of great joy, die, die, what a nuisance!"

……

The brides were chatting and laughing around the clothes, trying on.Although the style is exactly the same, only the size is different.They kept picking up and putting them down, and compared them one by one to their bodies.Several mirrors were snatched and looked back and forth.From time to time, there was exclamation, and from time to time, there was a burst of laughter.

"Don't compare, everyone, they all have the same style, so put them on quickly. Time waits for no one."

He Xiaoyue urged the brides.She also put on new clothes today, but they are still "female cadre clothes", which are naturally much inferior to the colorful newlyweds.As usual, he carried a bag on his body, which contained the documents of today's wedding process and arrangements.He Xiaoyue has a heavy responsibility today - although she is not well dressed, she is actually the "bridesmaid" of these 76 brides, accompanying and guiding them throughout.This was her first job alone, and it was inevitable that she would be highly nervous.

Because there are too many people, it is impossible to send a professional makeup artist from Ziming Building to do makeup, but each person is given a small bag with a set of simple cosmetics, and each person does their own makeup—it is makeup, but it is just a powder. Just some rouge, some lipstick.

But even this simple makeup is enough to make the brides look good-after all, the smile from the bottom of the heart is the most beautiful.

Under the urging of He Xiaoyue, a group of brides finally dressed properly, and then they left the shelter all the way under the escort of the staff and the dispatched police.

The front of the door had been cleaned cleanly, and as soon as he walked out the door, the long whips were lit on both sides, and the drummers hired from the city beat them all the way.The few common people near this desolate and dilapidated temple heard the sound and watched the grand wedding curiously.

"So many brides! Which family's happy event is it?"

"Married so many wives! Or a concubine?"

There is no such thing as group weddings these days, and even concubines do not accept two concubines at the same time.The brides in costumes coming out of the gate continuously confused many people.

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a group wedding held by Australians, a group wedding! It is dozens of couples getting married together!" Some people who have read newspapers or heard "preaching" in teahouses explained.

"So that's how it is. This Australian is really good at making troubles and making some new things."

"Not even a hijab—besides, the clothes are too loose!"

"Australians like this tune. Haven't you seen that female cadre? The trousers are wrapped—you can see the buttocks."

There was an obscene laugh from the crowd.

"I heard that many of them are from Laoju?"

"Shh! You are going to die, beware of being arrested by the police!"

"If you always give up your background, you always give up your background. Australians don't mind avoiding taboos, so why worry about it?"

"Old lift is good, kung fu is good, haha"

……

Although there were some frivolous comments among the crowd, He Xiaoyue didn't care. She raised her head and said loudly: "Everyone, don't worry, see where you are going, and don't listen to outsiders."

In the river in front of the gate of Huanghua Temple, five newly decorated "long dragon" speedboats had already been parked, and the brides boarded the boats one by one.Send them to the "yacht" by the Pearl River.

This yacht is the Octopus, which was originally used as a joint logistics passenger ship for the transportation of personnel and materials between Guangzhou and Wuzhou.This time, the cruise ship was specially deployed as a cruise ship, and after simple repairs and renovations, it was fully decorated with flowers.Guangzhou has always been famous for its flower market, and Henan has been the main gathering place for flower farmers since the Ming Dynasty.Fang Fei ordered a large number of flowers and green plants from flower farmers in Henan, all of which were used to decorate the venue and boats

The Octopus was repainted, and the various decorations that had been dismantled were reinstalled, restoring the style of Guo Yi's yacht in the past, and today it was decorated with flowers, and it was moored at Tianzi Wharf, attracting countless people. Onlookers.

The Tianzi Wharf was even more decorated with fresh flowers. Not only were the police to maintain order, but the national army also came to line up for vigilance.The folk music troupe recruited from all over Guangzhou prefecture played Chuidada, and the atmosphere on the pier was grand and warm.
