Chapter 204: Chapter 0204: Grand Wedding 4_1

Feng Aizhong, the cousin from her uncle’s side, carried Feng Qingxue out of the room and helped her onto a mule cart covered with new blankets. After saying thanks to Feng Aizhong, Lu Jiang, who was holding Niu Yibao’s crutch, helped Feng Qingxue change into new leather shoes with one hand.

The duty of carrying the bride out should have fallen to Feng Qingxue’s two older brothers, but neither of them had made an appearance, so Feng Aizhong stepped in.

Feng Qingxue was wearing a pair of red socks that completely covered her skin from view.

The old shoes removed by Qingxue were held by her second aunt, and she only started to speak once the young men accompanying Lu Jiang had loaded the dowry – boxes, blankets, a bicycle, a sewing machine and other items – onto the mule cart in the back. Not a single item was missing. She then announced, "The ceremony is over, the ceremony is over!"

With the ceremony concluded, the procession began.

The procession headed directly forward without turning back, following a planned route that still led to the Lu Family’s house.

The dowry on the cart caused quite a stir among the onlookers who watched the procession!

Who in the countryside had a wedding like this?

Two large red boxes, four new blankets, a bicycle, a sewing machine, a large red metal thermos, enamel basins, towels and food supplies, plus the groom wore military boots, and the bride wore new red shirts, black pants and black shoes. They were all shiny and new, with flowing red veils over their heads, adding a stunning burst of color to the drab era!

Although there was no sound of drums and music, the lively atmosphere was unforgettable.

As the Secretary and Brigade Leader of the Wanglou Brigade, Wang Zhengguo had always officiated at the weddings of young men and women. So instead of staying for the meal at his niece’s house, he returned with the procession and was the first to enter the new house of the Lu Family.

Portraits of leaders were pasted on the main hall wall, with a plaster statue of the national leader enshrined in the center of the hall.

These were special gifts from Wang Zhengguo, ensuring that anyone coming to cause trouble at the Lu Family’s house would think twice before entering.

Soon after, Lu Jiang, leaning on his crutch, entered the house with Feng Qingxue by his side.

Seeing them, the spectators erupted in cheers.

There was cheering, but no one dared to make a fuss. Chen Ming, missing a hand, was watching. Who didn’t know that Chen Ming was the man in charge of the granary during the grain levy? That’s called power and influence.

To ensure the smooth process of grain levy in the future, they absolutely obeyed any orders from Chen Ming!

At the bride’s home, there were no customs of worshipping heaven and earth or kneeling down to parents.

Actually, these customs weren’t absent, but no one dared to follow them.

Wang Zhengguo cleared his throat and declared, "Alright, the newlyweds are here, the wedding begins. Lu Jiang, Qingxue, bow three times to the leaders!"

Without hesitation, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue bowed deeply three times to the statue and portraits, a sincere gesture that everyone took note of, even through Feng Qingxue’s red bridal veil.

Wang Zhengguo stated tersely, "From now on, whether poor or rich, no matter what storms you face, you must support each other and never abandon one another! Qingxue, you are my niece, but remember, you are a soldier’s wife, a military spouse. In your future life, prioritize the nation. When Lu Jiang is training hard in the army or on a mission for the country, you must manage the home well without letting personal matters interfere with his duties, allowing him no worries to look back on!"

"Yes, Uncle. I will remember your words. I am a military spouse. I will make sure my husband has no worries back home, allowing him to serve our country and our people without any grievance!" Feng Qingxue responded with the utmost respect, and no one doubted her sincerity.

"Good, the ceremony is finished, lead the couple to the bridal chamber!"
