Chapter 410 The Wedding is Finally Here
Time passed quietly, and at the end of October, Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei's wedding arrived as scheduled.

Early in the morning, Li Kailang went to Zhang's house with the ingredients.

The main ingredients are about ten pounds of pork, which has just been slaughtered in the planting space and is still fresh and hot.

Li Kailang could naturally bring more meat, but this does not suit the current situation. Ten or so kilograms is also beyond the standard.

However, on such a happy day, and with free meals, I don’t think anyone would make a big deal out of it, lest they go without meat.

"Xiao Li, you are finally here." Early in the morning, Zhang Fen was waiting for him at the gate of the courtyard.

"What's wrong? Did anything happen?" Li Kailang asked.

"No, this is urgent. The banquet will start at noon. Can you do it?" Zhang Fen said.

"Don't worry, I calculated the time, and I will definitely be able to get it done when the wedding starts. Besides, I'm not doing it alone, there are other people to help, so don't worry."

In order to avoid any trouble, Li Kailang specially rehearsed in the planting space for today's banquet. It only took two and a half hours from ingredient preparation to serving the food.

It’s only a little after 8 o’clock, and the wedding banquet doesn’t start until 11 o’clock, so there’s enough time. Besides, other people can help to prepare the ingredients, so the bulk of the work is done, and the only thing left is cooking.

In order to satisfy the wedding banquet, a large stove was specially built, which can cook 3 dishes at the same time, so there is no chance of being slow.

"Okay then. Thank you for your help today." Zhang Fen thanked him.

"You're welcome. You should clean up quickly too."

After saying that, Li Kailang went in with the ingredients. There were 6 tables in total, with 10 people at each table. It was not that difficult to prepare 6 dishes for each table.

"Did you hear that? Why are you in such a hurry so early in the morning?" At this time, Yu Xuewei came over and echoed.

Zhang Fen said, "How can I not be anxious? Today is our wedding. We have to be very careful and careful. We can't make any mistakes."

Yu Xuewei rolled her eyes at him and said, "It wasn't urgent yesterday, nor the day before yesterday, but it's urgent today. Okay, everything has been arranged, just wait patiently."

"Besides, if you can't trust others, can you trust Xiao Li? Just do your best."

"That's true." Zhang Fen touched his head angrily.

Logically speaking, Yu Xuewei should be at Yu's house at this time, waiting for Zhang Fen to pick her up, but this would make the wedding seem troublesome.

The two families live quite far from each other, and the Yu family's country relatives will only come over after they finish their farm work. It would take a lot of time to start from scratch.

After considering many factors, Yu's father and mother simply let Yu Xuewei stay in Zhang Ya's room to save her from running around and to facilitate the wedding.

It's enough for their wedding to be known by relatives, friends, and neighbors in the neighborhood. There's no need to make a big fuss about it. The situation now is not as good as it was last year, so it's better to keep a low profile.

Seeing Zhang Fen staring outside motionlessly, Yu Xuewei pulled him away and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's only a few hours now. Go back and pack up."

"These two kids will make things lively in the future," said Yu's mother with a smile.

"Yes." Han Xiaohui agreed with a smile.

The two of them watched them playing and laughing, as if they were seeing their past selves.

As for where Zhang Jinwu and Yu's father were, they naturally drove to pick up Yu's father's relatives in the countryside.

Yu's father moved to the city from the countryside, but his roots are still in the countryside. He goes back every year, but the village is not close and it is a bit troublesome to go back.

But how could he not invite people to his daughter's wedding? Zhang Jinwu also went with them and helped drive them into the city.

It is easier to get things done if you have a car and someone to help you. Yu's father also realized the benefits of having a driver. It would be so face-saving if he could have a car to pick him up and drop him off during the holidays.

Time passed quietly.

The guests came to Zhang's house one after another, and Yu's relatives were also brought over from the countryside.

Their wedding didn't ask for gift money, so naturally they didn't shamelessly bring their families.

With everyone gathered, the Zhang family's yard suddenly became a lot more lively.

Finally, the auspicious time has arrived.

"Kailang, is the food ready?" Han Xiaohui asked.

Li Kailang nodded: "I'm ready and can go anytime."

"Okay, then the wedding banquet will begin."

Han Xiaohui went to talk to the host, and then talked to Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei, asking them to get ready.

The wedding officially begins.

"Let's welcome the bride and groom!" the host shouted.

Amidst thunderous applause and cheers from the crowd, the two men came out of their rooms.

Zhang Fen was seen wearing a Zhongshan suit, with his hair slicked to a shine. He walked out with an upright posture and an imposing manner.

Yu Xuewei wore a Soviet-style blazi with two thick braids, showing her youthful vitality.

The two of them walked out happily with bright and sunny smiles.

"It's out, it's out." Everyone cheered.

"Wow, Zhang Fen actually married such a beautiful wife, he is really good."

"Damn it! Zhang Fen, our factory beauty, really deserves a beating."

"Okay, okay, the man is sunny and handsome, and the woman is beautiful, they are really a perfect couple."

Everyone praised it and the scene was in chaos.

The people in the front gave their sincere blessings and praises, while those behind them applauded and were very happy for the two to be together.

Han Xiaohui in the corner immediately signaled to the children around her, "Go and ask the groom for candy quickly. If you go too late, there will be no candy."

She specially invited these kids from the alley to make today more lively.

Naturally, his parents gladly accepted it, as they not only helped with someone else's happy event, but also allowed their child to have candy.

As soon as they heard Han Xiaohui's words, a group of children immediately surrounded Zhang Fen, stretched out their hands and whispered blessings.

"Brother Zhang, happy wedding!"

"A happy marriage for a hundred years!"

"Have a baby soon!"

"We have them all." Zhang Fen smiled and took out the candies that he had put in his pocket and shared them with them.

Mainly fruit candies, and a small portion of White Rabbit milk candies.

White Rabbit Milk Candy only appeared after the 10th anniversary National Day gift. You can buy some of it on the market, but the price is not cheap.

In just ten seconds, all the candies in Zhang Fen's pocket were gone. He spread his hands and said, "No more, all gone."

Seeing this, the children stopped talking and said, "Thank you, brother!"

"Let's go and eat some candy." The children got the candy, ran away happily, and couldn't help but taste a piece first.

Without the child, Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei walked hand in hand to the stage in the center of the crowd.

On the wedding day, we dare not waste any time.

At this moment, the suona sounded at the right time, playing a high-pitched and cheerful music, and the atmosphere reached its climax.

The host came on stage and first thanked all the guests, and then solemnly invited Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei to come out.

The guests watched the newlywed come on stage and applauded and cheered.

The suona played "The East is Red".

Under the host's guidance, Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei held the Quotations and recited to each other. Then, in front of many relatives, friends and colleagues, the host solemnly announced that the two had become a revolutionary couple.

As soon as these words were spoken, there was thunderous applause and everyone cheered for the bride and groom.

After hearing this, the two of them couldn't help but blush, and at the urging of the crowd, they bowed to express their gratitude to all the guests.

Afterwards, the two left the wedding scene amid the cheers of the people and returned to the room to change their clothes before coming out again.

In the revolutionary atmosphere of the time, politics was emphasized and many traditions were abandoned. In cities, bride prices were cancelled and sedan chairs were no longer used to welcome brides.

There was no sedan chair carried by seven people, no bows to heaven and earth and then to parents, and no speech with the protagonist covering his face and crying.

Everything is kept simple, a wedding that is very much in keeping with the times.

Han Xiaohui and Yu's mother are women after all, and they were so moved that tears flowed when they saw the two of them officially become husband and wife.

After so many days of hard work, there is finally a result.

Although Zhang Jinwu and Yu's father did not shed tears, their eyes were red and tears welled up in the corners of their eyes, and their hearts were filled with mixed emotions.

In the blink of an eye, my children have grown up, got married, and have their own significant other.

Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei were very happy. They married the people they loved and could be the masters of their own household after marriage.

At this point, the wedding banquet of the two ended.

The wedding banquet was not as lively as everyone imagined, but for others, it was already very lively.

For ordinary people, setting up a table of wine and gathering relatives and neighbors to have a meal is considered a wedding. It is not as grand and lively as theirs.

After the wedding, it was time for the banquet that everyone had been looking forward to. The two changed their clothes and came out to attend the wedding banquet.

"Kanglai, serve the food." Han Xiaohui and Li Kailang said.

"It's been prepared long ago." Li Kailang responded, and with the help of everyone, the dishes were served on the banquet table one by one.

The standard six dishes and one soup, including meat, vegetables and soup, were served on the table one after another.

Everyone watched the dishes being served on the table and couldn't help swallowing their saliva, looking at them with envy.

With good food, good wine is naturally indispensable. However, considering that some people have to go back to work after the banquet, no strong wine is served.

After all, today is Saturday, not Sunday. Especially for Yu's father's relatives, they still have to be sent back to the countryside. I can't get drunk and vomit all over myself.

Looking at the delicious food on the table, everyone thought to themselves, "It's worth coming to this wedding banquet today. There are meat and vegetables, and we don't have to pay any gifts. This is such a good thing that happened to me."

Especially Yu father’s relatives in the countryside, who had not eaten meat and oily food for a long time, were finally able to eat their fill.

"Luckily I came along. If those people knew that we were going to have such delicious food today, they would have cried to death."

He gloats over the misfortunes of relatives who didn't want to come.

To make such a delicious dish, oil and meat are definitely indispensable, and Li Kailang naturally fills in the gaps, otherwise how could it be possible to make such a good dish.

Most other people’s weddings are done in a big pot, where all the food is stewed together. This can save a lot of ingredients and oil, and mainly save money.

If Yan Bugui were to do this, there would be more left.

Soon, all the dishes were served and everyone sat upright, waiting to eat.

"Let's eat," the host announced, and then started eating with everyone.

"Delicious, delicious." Everyone rushed to pick up their chopsticks. The first thing they picked up was the meat. In a few bites, all the meat was eaten by everyone.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh: "It's so delicious. It feels like I've lived my whole life in vain. This is the first time I've eaten something this delicious."

Li Kailang felt relieved when he saw how lively the dining atmosphere was and how happy everyone was eating.

After all, it was Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei's wedding banquet. If the food was not tasty and he neglected the guests, he would be a sinner.

"Xiao Fen, Xue Wei, stop eating, we have to go and toast." Han Xiaohui shouted.

Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei wanted to eat more, but were pulled up by Han Xiaohui and Yu's mother to toast them.

The difficulties that several people were worried about did not occur. Everyone concentrated on eating and did not slow down at all, for fear that if they were slow, everything on the table would be eaten up.

If Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei hadn't come to toast them, they wouldn't have gone through all this trouble.

Come to think of it, they just come here with a big mouth, and they won't give any gifts. If they try to make things difficult for us, that would really be too much.

Zhang Fen held up a wine glass and went to his relatives first to toast them.

"Xiao Fen, congratulations. After you get married you will have to take on the responsibility of being the head of the family. You can't let the bride suffer." A relative encouraged.

"Don't worry, I will take responsibility and will never let Xuewei suffer." Zhang Fen promised solemnly and turned his head to glance at Yu Xuewei.

Yu Xuewei's eyes became willow-shaped when she laughed, but she didn't expose his childish mentality.

"Well said. I wish you two a long and happy marriage and a son soon."

The other relatives praised the two of them and said some nice words, and the atmosphere was very warm.

After a few more words, everyone drank the wine in their hands.

Naturally, Zhang Fen only had a brief taste, as there were still five tables left to toast to, and it would not look good if he got drunk.

Next, Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei toasted everyone at each table.

Finally, we came to Li Kailang’s table where the logistics staff who had helped a lot today came.

"Xiao Li, I've really troubled you this month. You helped me find a house, got me food, and even cooked a big meal for me today. I don't know what to say."

Zhang Fen looked at Li Kailang and was unable to express his gratitude clearly. Li Kailang had helped him with so many things this month. Who else would help others like him?

"On such a festive occasion, there's no need to say these things. The best thing is that you two can live a good life." Li Kailang smiled and patted Zhang Fen's shoulder.

"Yeah." Zhang Fen nodded heavily, "I won't say much, it's all in the wine."

After saying that, Zhang Fen drank the full glass of wine in his hand.

Seeing this, Li Kailang naturally drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing Zhang Fen's hesitant mouth, Li Kailang said first: "Okay, it's the same if you have anything to say later. I'm going to keep you here. Go talk to someone else."

Zhang Fen wants to thank not only himself, but also others. It is enough to just show his intention and not make others feel unhappy.

Zhang Fen then thanked others.

After some thanks, the two finally completed their mission, and all that was left was to treat the guests well with food and drinks.

They don't have to worry about these things. There are special people to take care of them, namely Zhang Jinwu and Yu's father.

The two returned to their seats and started eating eagerly.

The banquet lasted for two or three hours, and everyone left after finishing their meal.

Yu's father's relatives were naturally sent back by the driver.

Originally, Zhang Jinwu wanted to send it back, but was stopped by Li Kailang.

After all, Li Kailang remembered very clearly that you should not drink and drive, and should not drive after drinking. It would be bad if something happened on such a happy day.

As for Zhang Fen and Yu Xuewei, they slept in Zhang Fen's room. The two could finally sleep together openly on the same bed.

The couple's wedding room has just started to be renovated and is expected to take three months. Lao Han and his friends can guarantee that the renovation will be completed before the Spring Festival.

In the days to come, Yu Xuewei will live with the Zhang family and will move into the new house after it is renovated.
