super rich

The wedding banquet of Chen Mingyuan and Mu Jiayin was held in the famous 'Bai Mansion' in Zhonghai.

This is an imposing gray-white western-style building located on the poetic Fenyang Road in the West District of Zhonghai. , Bai Xianyong and his son lived there and became famous in China, known as the "White Mansion". Because the exterior wall of the building and the marble spiral staircase leading to the balcony on the second floor are white, it is also called the "White House".

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has successively served as the site of the Chinese Painting Academy and the Yue Theater.

The former residence of the general in the past still gathers celebrities today.

Now, this garden mansion has become a restaurant of classic Huaiyang cuisine with a strong cultural atmosphere.

The White Mansion is not very spacious, and the retro boxes are solemn and solemn, but at this time it sets off a sense of festiveness, the lights are shining, and the flowers are full of brilliance. Two giant red candles more than two meters high stand on both sides of the wedding table, Set off a thick wedding background, vivid pilasters, crystal clear champagne tower, nine red peonies blooming on the wall, all create a strong festive atmosphere.

Several girls from the song and dance troupe played Guzheng, pipa and other ancient music on the wedding stage.

As for the guests, since Chen and Mu didn't want to make it too grand, apart from the immediate family members of the two families, they also invited their old friends in the political and military circles. The monstrous and powerful figures, although some political/bureaucrats in power were unable to attend the scene in person due to busy business or to avoid suspicion, they all appointed representatives to congratulate them. They also sent people to send congratulatory gifts.

On weekdays, although in Yunbo's treacherous political circle, it is inevitable that there will be reservations and scruples in communication with each other, but today, for the happy event of the two newcomers, everyone tacitly gathers together, even if they are in the political vortex recently. Cen Ruiwen in the movie also put aside his troubles and chatted and laughed happily with everyone.

"Old Mayor Chen, congratulations! The eldest grandson has married and can finally enjoy his life in peace!"

"Your grandson is really extraordinary. To be able to marry the daughter of the Mu family is a glorious family!"

"Recently, I heard that I just got promoted to the deputy office. I'm not yet 30 years old. The future is limitless!"

In the banquet hall, Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen, supported by Chen Guoliang and other children, were smiling and greeting their old friends. Infected by the happy event, Mr. Chen seemed to have recovered from his illness in an instant, and his whole body looked hale and hearty.

There was an endless stream of compliments. Of course, there were also a few people called "Old Chen", all of whom were old men of the same generation.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, members of the Mu family also arrived one after another. Surrounded by Mu Lunyin, Mu Dingyin, Dong Zhenying and others, Mrs. Mu came slowly in a wheelchair.

The atmosphere in the audience was stagnant. Since the Great Revolution, the old lady of the Mu family has basically never shown her face in public. It is said that she has been eating fast at home, praying to Buddha, and thanking guests behind closed doors. Occasionally see each other.

Old Master Chen's expression froze, and he immediately leaned on a cane, staggered up to meet him, came to the wheelchair, bent down, and said sincerely: "It's really hard work for you."

Considering that Mrs. Mu is inconvenient to move, the Chen family did not have much hope for the arrival of the old man, but today, for the wedding of the youngest daughter, she rushed to the scene without hesitation, and at the same time expressed her respect for the Chen family. Upper and lower recognition.

Old Madam Mu squeezed out a smile on her old face, and said slowly, "As long as the children are happy and happy, this is nothing."

Mr. Chen let out a hey, and hurriedly asked Chen Guoliang and the others to seat them personally.

Since Chen Mingyuan and Mu Jiayin have different family backgrounds, during the wedding banquet, everyone tried to avoid referring to seniority as much as possible. Imagine, Yang Xiuning couldn't call old lady Mu her mother-in-law, right?As for the seats, they are also arranged according to the family's seniority, so as to avoid embarrassing communication between everyone.

When it comes to seats, everyone seems to be seated at random, but if you look carefully, you can still find three obvious circles: the older generation of political leaders, although they have all retired, still have influence, this is the first The first circle; the powerful direct relatives of Chen Mu's family, including Cen Ruiwen, this is the second circle; the third circle belongs to the younger generation, who don't pay much attention to circle and strength, which really makes Mu Tian Young Master Yu was full of displeasure.

I thought that he and Chen Mingyuan were called brothers and sisters on weekdays, but when he got married, he had to squeeze in with a bunch of little kids, but seeing his cousin Mu Tianfeng sitting beside him calmly, his heart was more or less balanced .

In fact, such an arrangement will not wrong him. You know, when Mu Jiayin married into the Chen family, not only Zhang Zili, Chen Mingke and other brothers, but even a middle school student like Xia Doudou, his seniority would be on his head!

As for the protagonist, Chen Mingyuan was dressed in a black dress, elegant and extraordinary, and was paying tribute to the table.

In fact, according to etiquette, many people present today, as long as they send blessings, they will not really stay and eat wine, but no one is in a hurry to leave at this time, everyone is sitting inside chatting, and is still listening carefully Listening to the movement outside.

Obviously, given the status and influence of the Chen Mu family in China's political arena, no matter how much they tried to keep this wedding banquet low-key, it would be difficult to keep a low profile. These people sitting here are all waiting for more important figures to appear.

Not long after everyone sat inside, they heard movement outside, and then someone came in and said, "Several chiefs are here."

Everyone stood up when they heard it, and walked out together, but the order was orderly, and this is what everyone was waiting for.

Walking out of the house, there were two rows of men in black suits and sunglasses standing on both sides of the steps, and two red flag cars parked at the door.

Chen Guoliang and Cen Ruiwen hurried down the steps and opened the doors of the two red flag cars respectively.

A man in a Chinese tunic suit got off the car in front, and he bowed his hands to congratulate him from afar. It was none other than Comrade He Xiangdong, the former general secretary of Huaxia.

And the one in the car behind is Zong Kaitai, the first vice/president of the country today!

These two, all-powerful and world-renowned Chinese leaders, suddenly arrived, causing many people to whisper. Since the change of term, He Xiangdong has rarely shown his face in public. No one would have thought that he would attend this wedding.

Cen Ruiwen and Chen Guoliang opened the way from left to right, He Xiangdong and Zong Kaitai slowly stepped up the steps side by side, and waved to the old colleagues and old friends on the stage from time to time. Congratulations." The respect in his expression can be seen.

The old man didn't say anything, just patted the back of He Xiangdong's hand lightly with his hand on crutches. This kind of tacit understanding between teachers and friends has already surpassed most friendships in the world.

Zong Kaitai also stepped forward to congratulate him at the right time. He should be the "most unexpected" guest tonight. Let alone the fact that he holds the power of a country and is busy with official duties. Now, he and the Chen family The relationship is also quite delicate. Could it be that he is willing to accompany He Xiangdong to come here in person this time, is there some deep meaning behind it?

"Come here today just to ask for a wedding drink, not to mention business." Zong Kaitai looked around in a pleasant manner, and asked, "Where is today's rightful lord?"

Chen Guoliang hurriedly waved to Chen Mingyuan who was standing behind the crowd: "Mingyuan, come up quickly and thank you, Grandpa He and Grandpa Zong."

Chen Mingyuan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, and said respectfully, "Grandpa He, Grandpa Zong, hello to you both."

He Xiangdong looked very relieved, turned his face, and said to Zong Kaitai: "Look, I remember that Guodong looked like this back then! Well, the Chen family has a descendant!"

Zong Kaitai smiled and nodded.

After greeting the other older generations, everyone returned to the banquet hall. The old man sat around with He Xiangdong, Zong Kaitai, and Mrs. Mu, with plainclothes guards from the Security Bureau in between.

After chatting for a while, it was time to get down to business. The wedding ceremony officially kicked off. After some excuses, Zong Kaitai finally came to serve as the witness.

The wedding began. When Mu Jiayin appeared on the stage in a red dress, there were exclamations everywhere, and Chen Mingyuan was even more fascinated when he saw it. He had never seen Mu Jiayin in such a gorgeous dress and a dazzling red dress. , traditional but not lacking in fashion, long hair coiled up high, blue silk like clouds, beautiful and dignified.

It is as beautiful as the Qiong Yao fairy in the painting, wearing a gorgeous red dress, like a white and proud snow lotus, surrounded by bright red rays of light, like a dream, like a dream, overwhelming the country and the city, bringing people an unforgettable shock.

The two stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the master of ceremonies, and Zong Kaitai read out the marriage testimony. When it was announced that Chen Mingyuan and Mu Jiayin were officially married, there was warm applause and blessings in the venue.

The four eyes met, and at that moment, Chen Mingyuan captured the happiness and satisfaction that was so rich that it was almost impossible to dissolve, as well as the sparkling tears, from Mu Jiayin's bright eyes hidden behind the tulle. At this moment, he suddenly felt the meaning of marriage deeply. Meaning, it is solemn, unforgettable, and it is a lifetime commitment!

In this life, you will be rich, and you will talk to your son; hold your son's hand, and grow old together with your son; for thousands of years, you will be a couple forever!

Next, Chen Mingyuan and Mu Jiayin toasted to thank the guests one by one.

He Xiangdong's table was full of old comrades, and most of them had been banned from alcohol by their health doctors. Naturally, it was impossible to drink too much. Chen Mingyuan simply toasted three glasses in a row, and the old comrades nodded and smiled.

He Xiangdong waved his hand, and the secretary immediately stepped forward to offer a piece of brush and ink, and when he pulled it apart, there were four big characters in italics: A match made in heaven!

"I wrote it myself, with a little heart, you two young people of the new era, don't dislike it." He Xiangdong half-joked, and everyone laughed in unison.

"Etiquette is less important than affection." Mu Jiayin showed no stage fright, and smiled generously: "Our new house is short of such brushes, ink, calligraphy and paintings. Later, I will inlay them and hang them in the hall as the treasure of the town house."

Mrs. Mu glared at her, and muttered, "It's not big or small", but the corners of her mouth still couldn't help but twitched, overflowing with pampering.

According to the previous plan, most of the people planned to leave after the wedding ceremony, but seeing He Xiangdong and Zong Kaitai still sitting there chatting and laughing happily, no one could leave.

But this was 'distressing' Chen Mingyuan, no one got up to leave, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and toast the tables.

Those elders are fine, they are all high-ranking figures, and they will not compete with the juniors to make things difficult.But the continuous drinking made Chen Mingyuan complain.

When it was the younger generation's turn to sit at the table, Chen Mingyuan was already drunk, and in his subconscious, only Mu Tianyu's groaning and clamoring, and his mechanical clinking and drinking...
