I don’t know if it’s a good thing for young couples to hold a graduation certificate in one hand and a marriage certificate in the other, but for elders and parents, it is definitely worth celebrating.
Nian Xuelan was so happy that she hardly slept the night before the wedding. As soon as it was dawn, she called Liang Sunian. Her son's voice sounded vague and he was almost sleepy over the phone.
"Why are you still sleeping?"
"Mom, isn't it still early?"
"What's so early? It's not early! There's a lot to prepare, and you still have to rush to the hotel to pack up. Hurry up, we're on our way to pick you up now."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Liang Sunian closed his eyes for a while before rubbing his temples and turning over to sit up.
Xie Jiaran hasn't woken up yet.
Without him to block the light, she felt uncomfortable with the bright light from the window. She frowned, pulled up the quilt, changed direction, and continued to sleep.
Liang Sunian smiled, yawned, and tiptoed into the bathroom to wash up.
After cleaning up and making breakfast, he returned to the bed and pulled the person out of the quilt: "Ranran, it's time to get up."
"So sleepy..."
Xie Jiaran was pulled by him to sit up. He couldn't even open his eyes, so he fell into his arms and continued to sleep.
"Wake up, Ranran, we still have things to do today. Can we go to sleep slowly after we're done?"
"What are you busy with..."
"Busy getting married."
marry
Oh, get married.
By the way, they are getting married today!
Xie Jiaran's brain was shocked, but his body was still unable to wake up. He raised his head in a daze, and in less than two seconds, he smashed it into Liang Sunian's neck again.
“So busy.”
"I should have gone to bed earlier last night..."
In the end, Xie Jiaran was carried by Liang Sunian into the bathroom to wash up.
I just let him sit on the sink, squeeze toothpaste for him, wipe his face, and even hold his forehead to prevent him from closing his eyes. It was like taking care of a child.
After having breakfast and changing clothes, Xie Jiaran was finally fully awake. Ms. Nian and Mr. Liang also arrived.
When they picked up the person and were about to leave, Xie Xiaonian sat at the door and watched eagerly, and Ms. Nian happily took it with them.
How can the children not be there on the big day of their parents’ wedding
They went straight to the hotel, where the makeup artist was already waiting in the lounge.
There was just a small accident. One of the two makeup artists originally scheduled for the event had an emergency and couldn't come, so the two of us had to share one makeup artist.
Fortunately, there is plenty of time and it is definitely in time.
Boys are quick at putting on makeup, and with a good foundation, Liang Sunian finished in no time.
He consciously made room and moved aside. While waiting, he saw the photographer who was following him taking pictures all the time, so he became interested and took out his SLR.
"Brother, why did you bring your camera?"
"That's convenient. See, this will come in handy, right?"
Liang Sunian leaned against the makeup mirror so that it wouldn't block his view, and pointed the camera at Xie Jiaran: "Let's interview the groom. How is he now? Are you nervous?"
Xie Jiaran yawned lazily towards the camera: "I'm very sleepy and don't have the energy to be nervous."
"Oh, it seems that our groom didn't sleep well last night. Let him have a good rest and we will make a brief introduction."
Liang Su Nian started to chatter by herself without any interaction: "Well, we can see that the groom is putting on makeup now. He has done his base makeup and is drawing his eyebrows... The groom is very handsome, with big eyes, a small face, and a small mouth. It seems that our other groom is very lucky to be able to marry such a handsome groom..."
As he spoke, he moved the camera along with his explanation, which made the photographer and makeup artist laugh.
Xie Jiaran felt helpless and amused. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the makeup artist approaching with lipstick in hand. She quickly dodged and said, "Can I not put this on?"
He feels that it is challenging enough for boys to wear makeup, but he really cannot accept wearing lipstick.
“He doesn’t even need to wear it.”
He pointed at Liang Sunian.
"Mr. Liang's lip color is originally quite dark, and it looks good even without makeup. But Mr. Xie's lip color is a bit light, and it will look better if you put on some makeup."
"I don't want to apply it." He tried to struggle.
"But this will be a very complete—"
"It's okay. If he doesn't want to put it on, then don't put it on." Liang Sunian sided with her boyfriend: "It just so happens that I don't want to put it on either."
The makeup artist said, "But you don't need to put it on."
"It doesn't matter whether he or I apply it."
Liang Sunian spread his hands: "Isn't it too harsh to ask me to refrain from kissing him from now until the end of the wedding?"
"... ..."
The makeup artist was too lazy to explain to him that lipstick can be fixed. He laughed and raised his hand to compromise: "Okay, okay, I won't put it on. I'll do my hair, okay?"
Liang Sunian made an OK gesture and winked at Xie Jiaran.
The revolution triumphed.
Xie Jiaran narrowed his eyes, reached out to take the camera from him, and pointed the lens at him: "It's my turn to interview Mr. Liang. How do you feel?"
Liang Sunian looked straight at the camera: "Well... very excited, very happy, and very nervous."
Xie Jiaran could understand being excited and happy, but he was nervous: "Why are you nervous?"
Liang Sunian thought about it at the last minute: "Maybe it's because my wife is too pretty, so I have to be on guard against someone trying to steal her away?"
"... ..."
Liang Su Nian looked at Xie Jiaran who was speechless and laughed.
I don't know where he took out a red envelope and handed it to Xie Jiaran: "I almost forgot to give you this."
Xie Jiaran took it and felt the thick stack: "Did your grandparents give it to you?"
"no."
"Uncle?"
“No.”
"Who is that?"
Liang Sunian pointed at his nose and said, "It's this one."
"Ran Ran, happy wedding!"
The two grooms were almost ready, and everyone arrived one after another.
As soon as Xiao Chi came in, he hugged Xie Xiaonian and refused to let go, calling him his godson loudly. If people didn't know, they would have thought that he had come to recognize his relatives today.
"Oh my god, you two are going to defy the will of heaven."
Li Tang grinned: "Don't rush to leave after the wedding, it won't be a waste to walk down the red carpet, it will make me look handsome!"
Shen Xuehao touched his chin and said, "I agree. If someone takes a video and posts it online today, you two will go crazy again."
Chen Wenyao: “Add one.”
Liu Maomao took out his cell phone: "Then I'll go first?"
Before he turned on the camera, he heard a clicking sound nearby.
The girl put down her phone happily: "Sorry, I got there first, my sisters are already crying for food, hurry up and feed them~"
As more people came, the lounge quickly became lively.
The waiter brought fresh fruits and desserts, filling the entire coffee table.
Xie Jiaran wondered why Liang Cong and the others hadn't arrived yet: "Didn't you say last night that you must be the first to arrive?"
Liang Sunian asked him to check the group chat: "Indeed, they were the first to arrive, but because there were too many guests, the three of them were forced by their uncle to go to the door to greet the guests. They kept complaining in the group chat for a long time."
So miserable.
Thank you for your hard work, brothers and sisters.
While Xiaotu was sharing her first-hand happiness with her sisters, Li Tang sneaked over and called Liang Sunian and Xie Jiaran aside, whispering, "Let me ask you, will Jiaran have a bouquet when he goes on stage later?"
Liang Sunian: "I have prepared it, but I haven't decided whether to take it or not. What's wrong?"
"Take it, take it, take it!" Li Tang put his hands together and begged them: "Do me a favor, and then throw the bouquet directly on my head."
Xie Jiaran: "What are you going to do with the flowers?"
"Of course it's for its proper purpose." Li Tang gestured in the direction of the sofa and patted his pocket: "I've prepared the ring."
Oh, I see.
Xie Jiaran and Liang Sunian looked at each other in understanding, and nodded to Li Tang: "Okay, I'll bring the bouquet, but my aim may not be so good, so I may not be able to hit you on the forehead so accurately."
Li Tang was happy and patted his chest: "It's okay, Jiaran, just throw it. If you can't grab it, I lose!"
The time is almost up and the wedding is about to begin.
According to the order during the rehearsal, Liang Sunian had to enter the venue first and wait for the wedding host to finish his opening remarks. Then Ms. Nian would escort Xie Jiaran to the stage and hand him over to Liang Sunian personally.
It is worth mentioning that the host of their wedding was their omnipotent uncle.
“Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, dear friends,
Hello everyone.
Before the wedding begins, on behalf of the two newlyweds, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude and warmest welcome to all the friends who have come to attend the wedding ceremony..."
The lights came together and the whole place was silent.
The uncle recited the words according to the card, and from time to time he would look up at the person standing in front of him.
When he saw Liang Sunian looking back for the eighth time, he finally couldn't help it and lowered his voice: "Stand still on this important day, are you suffering from ADHD?"
Liang Sunian immediately apologized, and then interrupted when his uncle was about to continue reading: "I have a suggestion, can we skip directly to the groom's entrance?"
Uncle: “What?”
Liang Su Nian said honestly: "The opening remarks you prepared are too long. I can't wait."
Uncle: “…”
A stinky brat!
The microphone was right between the two of them, and even if they deliberately lowered their voices, it couldn't prevent their conversation from spreading throughout the hall.
There was a low laugh from the crowd.
The uncle glared at him unhappily, picked up the cue card, and went through a long opening speech with a serious tone, then went straight to the entrance of another groom.
The door opened, and Xie Jiaran, holding Nian Xuelan's arm, slowly entered the venue under the spotlight. They walked up the steps and stopped, looking at Liang Sunian at the other end from a distance.
"Damn, my brother Jia Ran is so handsome!"
Liang Cong was stunned and exaggerated, but soon he remembered something and frowned angrily: "If my uncle hadn't forced me to receive customers, I would have seen it a long time ago. I came the earliest and saw it the latest!"
Liang Che calmly adjusted his glasses: "It's to welcome guests."
Liang Wenshan was so happy that she almost laughed out loud.
“What we participate in is not the starting point or the end point of happiness, but a milestone that is most worth sharing with family and friends.”
"So before the wedding officially begins, please watch a video together. Let us start from a longer starting point and feel the brilliant journey they generously shared, which we have never participated in."
The uncle finished his introduction with great emotion and stepped aside.
The lights dimmed, and the large screen in front of the stage lit up and slowly began to play a video.
In fact, Xie Jiaran didn't know what the video was all along. It was all prepared by Liang Sunian. He asked once and Liang Sunian said he wanted to keep it a secret as a surprise for him, so he stopped asking.
So today, he, like all the guests, is watching this video for the first time.
When the scene opened, Xie Jiaran recognized it almost immediately. It was the last time they were walking on campus.
At that time, Liang Sunian had already started to carry a DSLR camera with him wherever he went.
It was a very everyday scene. He was held up to look at the camera, and while walking, he was asked what he wanted to do first after graduation.
Xie Jiaran thought for a moment and said, "Walk out of the school gate?"
Liang Su Nian laughed, and the camera shook a little: "You don't have to be so specific. Of course I know that the first thing I do when I wake up is to open my eyes."
Xie Jiaran thought about it and said, "Is that work?"
Liang Sunian: "Aren't you going to get your diploma?"
Xie Jiaran glanced at him: "What's the difference between this and my leaving school?"
Liang Sunian said calmly: "There is a huge difference. Others only get one diploma, but each of us can get two."
"Um?"
Liang Sunian took his hand and waved it towards the camera, their rings sparkling in the light: "My boyfriend has graduated too, it's time to change his name."
"You said you like the town of Manarola, so let's take our wedding photos there, okay?"
In the video, Xie Jiaran blinked, shook his hands like him, and smiled: "Okay."
As Xie Jiaran finished his words, the scene shifted and came to the colorful Manarola.
They were not wearing formal clothes, just the most casual beach-style T-shirt and shorts. The photographer was taking pictures of them, and Liang Sunian was taking pictures of Xie Jiaran.
Under the bright light of the setting sun, Xie Jiaran walked straight forward along the white line on the road in a somewhat childish manner. The waves in the distance and the colorful buildings bathed in sunlight were the most vivid backdrop.
He is like a small white flower blooming on a cliff, swaying in the wind, and can make people love him from the bottom of their hearts.
"Ran Ran, do you like it here?"
"I like it." Xie Jiaran said, and then he felt that two words could not express his feelings, so he added again to emphasize: "I like it very much."
He took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at the camera, or rather, at Liang Sunian behind the camera: "It seems that the sea breeze tastes sweet."
The sea breeze just happened to blow by, lifting the soft hair of the boy in the picture. He squinted his eyes comfortably. The picture was so clean that it seemed as if one could really feel the sweetness of the sea breeze with him.
The camera was switched to the other hand. As the lens shook, Liang Sunian held Xie Jiaran's hand and walked slowly and leisurely.
The camera flashed, recording their clasped hands and the white line under their feet.
"Ran Ran, what gift do you want?"
Xie Jiaran turned around and asked: "Gift?"
"Yes, it's such a big day for getting the marriage certificate, how can we not have gifts?"
"But can you deliver what I'm saying now?"
The person behind the camera thought for a moment and said, "Maybe not, but I can give it to you on our wedding day as a wedding gift."
Xie Jiaran laughed: "But I have everything, there is nothing I want anymore."
"Really? I don't believe it."
"Mr. Liang, you can't talk back."
"... ..."
The person behind the camera remained tactically silent, while everyone at the wedding scene burst into laughter.
Liang Su Nian was helpless: "Provide some ideas for free, such as getting a promise from her husband that he will never let Xie Ranran wash the dishes."
“Or cooking.”
Xie Jiaran: "But now I don't have to wash dishes or cook."
“… It seems so.”
The person behind the camera was stumped and felt sad because he had no gifts to give.
Xie Jiaran tilted his head and suddenly smiled: "Brother, you really gave me inspiration. I think I do have a gift I want."
"What is it?"
"bless."
Xie Jiaran's voice was very clear, and it floated softly into his ears: "I heard that the more blessings a couple receives, the happier they will be. I want everyone to bless us for being together."
The picture was hazily frozen in Xie Jiaran's smile.
Then it turned into countless points of light and scattered.
The entire big screen turned into a huge gift box, the ribbon was pulled open, the box was opened, the camera was pushed onto the gift box, and they saw another world hidden in the box.
"Blessings? Of course!"
Su Xiaoyue led the camera into the studio with cheerful steps: "Come on, come on! Children, look over here!"
Everyone inside was busy, and when they heard Su Xiaoyue clapping, they all put down the paintings in their hands.
Turn the painting over and face it towards the camera. On each piece of paper is a huge red heart, which replaces the numerous heads and occupies the entire studio.
"Jia Ran, happy graduation! Happy wedding!"
"Ranbao!!! Happy wedding!!!"
"I want to be with the school hunk forever!"
"Fuck, how come your love heart has perspective? Are you showing off?"
"What's wrong with my level? Sun Han is so kind-hearted, why don't you talk about him?"
"I just like to draw bigger, so what? Don't pull me down!"
"My love is so big! Hurry up, give me a close-up shot..."
Amid the commotion, the picture began to fade in color.
Turn the page and a new picture unfolds.
"Come on, we've rehearsed it and can't wait to perform!"
The one who spoke was Liang Sunian’s squad leader.
He ran into the classroom with a camera. Everyone in the class was there. The first thing the camera captured was the projected tacky love-shaped blessing video. The roses that formed a heart were flashing in colorful colors.
Most of the students in their class are science and engineering students, and their emotions are always so simple and straightforward.
Of course, the shock goes far beyond this.
After showing off their earthy love, everyone started to stand in their positions. Xiao Chi stood at the front and began to express his feelings with body language as the squad leader shouted out the blessing commands.
"Brother Liang Jiaran, be happy and content! Forever and ever, never part..."
Draw a huge heart, stretch out your hands and kick your legs.
Then there is the action of pulling the bow, the heart is launched, and then it jumps up and spins in place, exploding into fireworks.
The uniform, childish movements, coupled with the bright smiles on everyone's faces, are so funny and cute!
The guests laughed again.
Her lips were grinning and her eyes were red.
Xie Jiaran blinked his eyes, feeling a little sour.
The picture faded out again.
Turning the page, the background changes from school to home.
They are Liang Sunian’s big relatives, and of course they are his now.
Young and old were lined up and stood together.
Several uncles and aunts care a lot about their image. When facing the camera, they would ask their wives whether their clothes are tidy, their hair is messy, and their ties are crooked.
"Great and handsome! Stop moving!"
"What else does a family need to save face?"
"What do you mean by family? This is going to be shown at Nian Nian Ran Ran's wedding, okay? So many people will see it then. No, no, wait a minute, I'll go look in the mirror again."
In the end, Liang Cong used the excuse that the recording had already started to pull the procrastinating person back.
"Ahem, I should go first, right?"
The uncle pulled his tie with a heavy idol burden: "Jia Ran, first of all, I wish you a happy wedding! Then, you are very welcome to join our big family. You are very welcome. Finally, your aunt has been nagging you to come to our house to eat the thousand-layer pancakes she made. When are you coming? We have bought several bags of flour..."
"Tsk, what the hell are you talking about, come on shut up, it's my turn!"
The aunt smiled kindly towards the camera:
"Jia Ran, we are too embarrassed to say it in person, so let's say it here. We really like you. You are well-behaved, smart and pretty. When you come here, I get even more annoyed with Liang Cong..."
"Mom, why are you pulling me down? It's my brother's big day, can you please give me some face?"
"What face do you want from a little brat with a big pile of eye boogers?"
“Children also feel wronged!!!”
... ...
The elders are not very good at expressing their feelings, but they want to express everything they think. They say it one by one until they blush and feel embarrassed. In the end, they can only grin and laugh awkwardly.
"In short, we are all very happy. With more children at home, the New Year will be more lively!"
"Jia Ran, Nian Nian, happy wedding!"
Offstage, the uncle clicked his tongue twice and frowned: "My collar is a little crooked, why don't you fix it for me..."
The eldest aunt's face was red at first, but he made her laugh. She patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are old now, don't be so proud."
The scene flashed, and we were still at home.
But there were no adults among the members, only four younger members of the Liang family.
They gathered in front of the camera, and at the beginning of the scene Liang Cong was still fiddling with his phone.
"Is that all right?"
"Focus! Hey, okay, okay!"
"Brother Jiaran, first of all, happy marriage! Hehe."
"It was difficult for the adults to perform well with us just now, so we gave them some special treatment."
"To be honest, I have thought many times before about what kind of sister-in-law my brother would find for me. I have thought about a lot of things, young, hot-tempered, cheerful, but I never thought it would be a boy."
"I'm a little surprised, but I'm even happier. From now on, we can play games together, have supper together, drink wine together, eat crayfish together, and go back to our hometown together during the Chinese New Year!"
"Ahem, I've strayed off topic. What I want to say is that you and my brother are a perfect match. Really, my brother is so lucky to marry you..."
"Hey, hurry up! Why are you so long-winded like your father?"
Liang Wenshan was getting impatient waiting, so she pushed Liang Cong away violently, and looked at the camera with a smile again: "Jia Ran, happy wedding!"
"I've prepared a super awesome wedding gift for you. I'll send it to you right after you get married. I guarantee you'll love it! I won't say much now. It would be bad to reveal too much. Remember to stay tuned!"
Liang Che: "Well, your sister's gift is great, I can testify to that. I'm not very good at choosing gifts, so I decided to teach you my unique mahjong skills this New Year, and I guarantee that you will win the world without any opponents."
After the older brothers and sisters finished speaking, it was Liang Xuexue's turn.
She looked at Liang Cong, then at the camera, and said as they taught her: "Brother Jiaran, happy wedding."
"... ..."
Then she forgot the words.
He stared at the camera for a few seconds, and when Liang Cong couldn't help but prepare to remind him, he suddenly pursed his lips: "Why is it a happy wedding? Am I not the one who is going to marry Brother Jiaran? Why is it a happy wedding? Wow wow wow wow!"
Tears come when they come.
When the mouth opens, the eyes become invisible.
The picture froze on Liang Xuexue's miserable crying face.
Laughter broke out everywhere, and Xie Jiaran fanned his wet eyelashes and laughed too.
The video continues to turn pages.
Liang Sunian's high school fraternity, college fraternity, the old professor that Xie Jiaran had taught many times, Teacher Lin that they met in high school together, and the special blessing posts collected on the school forum... ...
Appear one after another.
All the witnesses of the newlyweds' love at the most brilliant and beautiful age have gathered together to receive the most sincere and heartfelt blessings.
At this moment, they are the center of their little world and are naturally favored by everyone.
With a house full of relatives and friends, their youth is grand and eternal.
The road ahead is smooth and endless love will continue forever.
However, at this moment when everyone was in tears, Liang Sunian, one of the protagonists, suddenly turned around, strode up to Xie Jiaran, leaned close and slapped him on the face.
Amidst the stunned looks, he said innocently, "I'm sorry, the video is really too long, I really can't wait any longer."
He had suggested to his uncle that he should move up the step of kissing the groom, but unfortunately his uncle did not accept the suggestion.
So we can't blame him, right
Everyone looked at each other, their tears not yet dried, and they were amused by him again.
Crying and laughing at the same time, it really makes people angry, helpless and funny.
Nian Xuelan punched him on the shoulder, and scolded with tears in her eyes: "You little bastard, why are you so annoying? Can't you just be patient for a while?"
Xie Jiaran also smiled. Liang Sunian raised his hand to rub his head and raised the corner of his mouth: "As long as Ranran doesn't bother me, that's enough."
The wedding ceremony gradually came to an end amid the sound of blessings.
The engagement ring was replaced with a wedding ring. With the blessing of luck, Xie Jiaran's aim was excellent for once, and the bouquet hit Li Tang's forehead accurately.
He knelt down and took out the ring in one go.
A new round of cheers rang out, and the tears that Xiaotu couldn't control were the best proof that their happiness was being conveyed.
Xie Jiaran smiled as he watched Li Tang put the ring on Xiaotu, and his palm was gently tickled.
Looking up, Liang Su Nian looked at him with smiling eyes: "Where do you want to go for your honeymoon, classmate Xie?"
"Anywhere is fine."
Xie Jiaran moved his fingertips to scratch back, with a happy arc on the corner of his mouth: "As long as you are here."
Midsummer is brilliant, bright and warm.
It's such a beautiful season. I can't think of any better way to spend it except being with you.
The author has something to say: Why do I owe so many extra chapters
I will prepare for two days before writing a sequel about Ranran turning into a cat for my wives, and then be lazy for two more days (crossed out)
