There was a big red lantern hanging on the door, and wedding characters were pasted everywhere on the walls and windows.
If I'm not mistaken.
This is Shi Xiangming’s home.
And this happy event at this moment should be held for Shi Xiangming and Bai Yueer.
Xu Xiuwen didn't think that Bai Yue'er would change her mind and marry Shi Xiangming after returning home.
He would rather believe that there is something wrong.
For example, Bai Yue'er was forced.
Xu Xiuwen did not go directly to Shi Xiangming to find out the truth, but planned to wait and see.
When Ban Chan saw this scene, she guessed something.
She immediately explained to Xu Xiuwen: "Mr. Xu, there must be a misunderstanding here."
Xu Xiuwen nodded and said, "I know. Let's sneak in and take a look at the situation first. We'll talk about everything after we see Yue'er."
No one objects.
Xu Xiuwen said, "Wait for me outside. If you see something wrong, Ban Chan, you call the police, and Huang Bao, you go in and find me."
They both nodded.
Then Xu Xiuwen walked towards the gate alone.
As he approached, an elderly man came out of the yard.
The man reached out to stop him, frowned, looked at him with a puzzled look, and asked, "Who are you?"
Xu Xiuwen said, "I'm Shi Xiangming's high school classmate. I heard he was getting married today, so I came all the way from town."
Bai Yue'er once told Xu Xiuwen that she went to high school in town.
Shi Xiangming is her classmate.
If nothing unexpected happens, this reason can be used to cover up the issue.
After listening to Xu Xiuwen's explanation, the doubt in the man's eyes disappeared.
Xu Xiuwen took out another 200 yuan from his wallet and asked the man to keep track of the money.
The man was also surprised when he saw Xu Xiuwen gave him 200 yuan as a share of the money, and the smile on his face deepened.
The man asked Xu Xiuwen's name.
Xu Xiuwen said one casually.
After paying the membership fee, Xu Xiuwen entered the courtyard.
What a coincidence.
It just happened to be the most important step in a traditional wedding - the wedding ceremony.
The guests formed a semicircle in the front hall.
The front hall is now decorated with various red ornaments, looking like a wedding hall.
There was a row of chairs on the north side of the hall, on which sat Shi Xiangming's parents.
Standing in the middle of the hall were Shi Xiangming and Bai Yue'er, both wearing wedding attire.
Bai Yue'er was wearing a red scarf and her face could not be seen.
The best man on the side shouted loudly: "Bride and groom, take your places!"
There was a burst of gongs and drums.
The best man shouted: "Bow to heaven and earth..."
Shi Xiangming and Bai Yue'er did as they were told immediately.
Xu Xiuwen had just squeezed into the crowd, tiptoed to look into the wedding hall, and happened to see the two people bowing.
He froze in place for a moment.
The groom was indeed Shi Xiangming.
Xu Xiuwen was so familiar with that face.
Bai Yue'er was standing next to him, but her face couldn't be seen.
But who else could marry Shi Xiangming except Bai Yue'er
Xu Xiuwen was shocked.
He thought Bai Yue'er was forced.
Even if someone was seen pressing Bai Yue'er's head to bow.
He wouldn't find it strange.
But what he saw was that no one forced Bai Yue'er.
In other words, Bai Yue'er was willing.
The best man shouted according to the procedure.
Shi Xiangming and Bai Yue'er obeyed and did as they were told.
Xu Xiuwen was in a trance.
He felt like he was dreaming.
How could Bai Yue'er be willing to marry Shi Xiangming
It must be a dream.
Besides, what era is this now? Who still gets married like this
But the noisy sounds around him and the pain in his thigh reminded Xu Xiuwen.
He was not dreaming!
Soon the wedding ceremony was over.
As the best man shouted, "Send her to the bridal chamber."
Bai Yue'er followed the two women to the back of the front hall.
After the worship ceremony, the banquet will begin.
The guests returned to their seats and prepared to eat.
Shi Xiangming did not go back to the bridal chamber with Bai Yue'er, but stayed in the front hall, greeting relatives and friends with his parents.
The man who had stopped Xu Xiuwen at the door just now walked up to Shi Xiangming and whispered something.
Shi Xiangming first showed a puzzled expression, then shook his head, and finally looked around the yard, as if he was looking for someone.
He didn't notice Xu Xiuwen.
Because Xu Xiuwen slipped to the backyard one step ahead.
Xu Xiuwen did not act rashly to alert the enemy.
He had read a lot of news in his previous life.
Villages like this are very xenophobic.
If he had stepped out rashly to stop the two from getting married, he would probably have been driven away.
Moreover, Xu Xiuwen still didn't know why Bai Yue'er agreed to marry Shi Xiangming.
So he decided to find Bai Yue'er and ask her clearly first.
While no one was paying attention, Xu Xiuwen quietly slipped from the corner of the front hall to the backyard.
I saw the two women who had just accompanied the bride come out of the house.
Xu Xiuwen immediately knew which room was the wedding room.
Wait until the women leave.
Xu Xiuwen observed his surroundings and quietly moved over.
Come outside the door.
Just as Xu Xiuwen was about to open the door, Shi Xiangming's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Xu Xiuwen!"
Xu Xiuwen froze in place instantly.
He recognized the voice as Shi Xiangming's.
The latter was now behind him.
Xu Xiuwen had to give up opening the door and turned to look behind him.
Standing not far behind him was a young man in wedding attire.
If it’s not Shi Xiangming, who else could it be
The setting sun slanted in from the right, leaving two shadows on the wall.
