Chapter 911: Chapter 901: Hurry Up and Praise Me
There are quite a lot of people in the room, even though it’s just one hundred and five square meters, yet there are seven or eight people standing in the living room alone.
The house has recently been renovated, although it’s not suitable for living in yet, it’s still okay for a wedding. This is also why Wang Xing has been so busy recently.
"Qingzi is here?" Thin Dog Qin Wei, after more than twenty days, has taken leave again and returned, wearing a black suit with a bow tie, just like Ding Qiang. It’s pretty obvious the two of them are the best men.
Logically speaking, there should be a spot for him as a best man as well. But with three best men, it’s odd, so one was removed. Of course, if Lin Miaomiao has many friends, then they could have four best men and four bridesmaids. But Lin Miaomiao only found Sun Mumu and another classmate to be bridesmaids, so there are only two bridesmaids, and the number of best men naturally adjusts accordingly.
"Yeah, not bad, just like Big Qiang, standing around looking sharp, you guys came over last night?" Su Qing laughed.
Upon hearing this, Qin Wei gave a bitter laugh: "Yesterday afternoon I went to Old A’s place to help out. I came over here in the evening, helped set up, and suddenly it was already after midnight, squeezed in a nap.
Qingzi, it’s just this once, when you get married, I absolutely won’t be the best man, it’s really exhausting, damn!"
No kidding, he knew being a best man was not an easy job. He’d be thrilled if he didn’t have to do it. Otherwise, he’d have come over yesterday and probably ended up exhausted.
Now it’s much better. All he needs to do is get up early, come join to pick up the bride, go through the marriage ritual, ride in the car, attend the banquet, and then gather in the evening, completing the wedding for Wang Xing.
To be honest, just thinking about it makes him feel uncomfortable. After all, when he gets married, the scene will definitely be bigger, which is contrary to his dislike of being watched by so many people.
While the two were talking, Groom Wang Xing emerged.
"Wow, look at those dark circles... one might think you’ve got kidney deficiency." Su Qing couldn’t help but comment upon seeing Wang Xing’s current appearance.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xing glared at him weakly: "If you went through what I went through, I’m afraid you’d drop dead right here. Do you know how I’ve managed in the last half month? Do you know!
For the past week, my sleep time has plummeted. There are so many things to do every day, that I just can’t imagine. The fact that I’m still alive is already a miracle."
[Wang Xing has been very anxious every day for the past half month, having to take care of his pregnant wife’s emotions, and also worry about the house renovation, the wedding issues. Most importantly, there’s still work in Jiang City that needs his attention. Fortunately, his wife’s pregnancy subdued his temper; otherwise, he would’ve quit early.]
Listening to the narration prompt, Su Qing couldn’t help but feel sorry for him for three seconds.
"Alright, this is the final squabble today. After this, you can prepare to enjoy happiness, warm your hands with your wife and children, isn’t that better than those two best men looking sharp?" Su Qing comforted.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xing chuckled: "Nicely comforting, next time don’t! What do I have to compare with those guys!"
Ding Qiang: (•?へ•?╬)
Qin Wei: [○?`Д′?○]
Before they could start, the wedding videographer called everyone to start recording the departure video, and Su Qing naturally stepped out of the way.
After a moment of awkward cheering, the group headed downstairs valiantly and got into the car. Naturally, Ding Qiang and Qin Wei got into his car.
"Hey, what a waste! Such a good car, it’s being occupied by two old chaps." Su Qing lamented.
"If you keep babbling, I’ll swap in two older ladies!" Ding Qiang glared at him and spat.
"No need for that."
At dawn, a convoy of ten cars slowly departed from the community, and finally arrived at Lin Miaomiao’s home after an hour, Wang Xing immediately noticed the bride he had longed for.
Have to admit, Wang Xing’s mother-in-law has quite some charm, somehow not matching Lin Miaomiao’s dad. It’s just that the mother-in-law’s expression wasn’t very good.
Just as Su Qing was puzzled, the narration provided an explanation.
[Lin Miaomiao’s stepmother, besides herself, has a younger brother at home who is in his sophomore year. Her stepmother’s intention is for twenty thousand in bride price, along with any random two quilts, keeping the money to supplement her own son.
Fortunately, Lin Miaomiao’s father stood firm once, and the bride price was reduced to ten thousand, all brought back by Lin Miaomiao. As a result, the two argued for several days.]
Upon hearing this, Su Qing was taken aback, not expecting Lin Miaomiao to face such experiences.
Of course, this could explain why Lin Miaomiao, despite not being particularly financially troubled, had initially lived in an old building in East City District that was set for demolition.
Displaying extreme lack of self-confidence and longing for a stable life.
Just from this hint, it shows that due to the presence of a stepmother, Lin Miaomiao’s growing environment wasn’t great. After all, if you count, she is the outsider in this household, who else to be rejected?
But luckily, Lin Miaomiao found a reliable man, at least in Old A’s place, she is definitely a treasure.
Wang Xing, along with Ding Qiang and Qin Wei, as well as relatives, easily entered the bride’s room.
Su Qing glanced from outside, seeing Sun Mumu and another girl he didn’t recognize, dressed as bridesmaids. There was hardly any resistance, mainly because Wang Xing was generous with red packets, while Lin Miaomiao sat on the bed in a wedding gown.
In front of the camera, playing games, finding wedding shoes, everything went smoothly.
"Mom, have some tea!"
The woman nodded and took a sip.
"Dad, have some tea!"
As soon as the words fell, Su Qing, Ding Qiang, and Qin Wei each raised their phones, holding their own cups and took a sip, even the camera gave them a shot, quite impressive.
Seeing this, Wang Xing, kneeling on the ground with trembling hands as he offered tea, ground his molars, planning to retaliate during their weddings.
On the wedding day, it’s most taboo to make a fuss, but fortunately, nothing went awry, even the not-so-happy stepmother didn’t say much. It’s unclear what Lin Miaomiao’s dad communicated to her.
Soon, the group went downstairs, drove straight to Wang Xing’s home, then an hour later, the convoy headed to the hotel.
But unexpectedly, an accident happened. At the hotel entrance, Su Qing looked at Wang Xing and grinned widely:
"Brother, you see, I brought back three brides and twelve bridesmaids for you, cool, right? Marrying four at once!"
Wang Xing looked at the brides and bridesmaids he didn’t recognize, deep in thought: "Um..."
"When we came earlier, I joined the wrong convoy, and brought back a bunch of people. We left with ten cars and returned with thirty-eight. Aren’t I awesome? Praise me quickly!" Su Qing laughed.
Wang Xing: ...
After the group picked up the bride and returned home, then went to the hotel, but instead of going straight, they took a detour around the outer ring where the scenery is good for filming outdoor scenes, and it also allowed for a later arrival since they needed to wait there anyway.
But it was this detour that caused trouble. Jiang City is so large, and each auspicious day for weddings would have more than one couple getting married, unexpectedly overlapping routes. No one in the car knows each other, just seeing the red ribbons on the rear-view mirror of the front car thought it was their wedding car, and followed along.
"The problem is, we lost our bridesmaids?"
Su Qing: ...
"How about... just go with it? Anyway, I’m tired of seeing Sun Mumu as a bridesmaid, no freshness at all!"
"Agreed!"
"I also think this suggestion’s good!"
Ding Qiang and Qin Wei swiftly chimed in, joking, two turning into twelve is outright jackpot! As for the three brides, those are Wang Xing’s, they didn’t want them.
Wang Xing, looking at the bride, and bridesmaids busy calling, inhaled deeply and pointed at the three guys:
"You guys are really something, are you here for your own gain while I’m getting married? Go find our bridesmaids back!"
Honestly, he noticed the mistake then, even gesturing several times to the trailing car, but they didn’t understand, so he didn’t bother. Didn’t expect their own bridesmaids to also get lost.
