Chapter 2332: Chapter 2332: Collective Wedding III (4)
"Who else is getting married?" someone asked curiously.
"It’s a wedding? Why aren’t they using the traditional red color?"
"They say white symbolizes purity."
"But isn’t white usually used for funerals?"
"Xinxin is no ordinary person; she’s well-traveled and knowledgeable. Besides, it’s not completely white; it’s called pinkish-white. And isn’t the Bodhisattva always dressed in white robes? So elegant!"
"Makes sense. Now that you mention it, the flowers made from those pale pink scarves look quite pretty..."
While they were discussing, Du Chengxiu, dressed in festive attire, stepped forward: "Dear villagers and friends, today is a day of triple happiness for our family; we have three sets of newlyweds. Two young couples have already emerged, and now let’s welcome the third pair." He then stepped aside to make way at the door.
In a room inside the small building, Nian Qianqian was still dressed in white, but now had a veil attached with a pearl hairpin to her bun. The veil was particularly long, and the front could be pulled down to cover her face, resembling a head covering.
"Do I look alright like this?" Nian Qianqian, dressed up by Chun Hua, felt a bit uncomfortable.
"Don’t worry, Senior," Chun Hua chuckled. "Our madam said this is a wedding dress, red symbolizes celebration, but white symbolizes purity, which suits you both perfectly."
"Senior, I’ve never seen anyone wear white as beautifully as you," Yang He also smiled. "It really fits your temperament, and isn’t today the kind of day you’ve been dreaming about for so long?"
"Grandma, it looks beautiful," Sini and Xiaofeng, busying themselves with her veil, nodded in agreement.
"Since that’s the case, I’ll go out like this," Nian Qianqian said happily. She then walked straight out. Although she was over fifty, her beauty made her appear almost like a young girl, stunning everyone at her appearance.
In the courtyard of Daguan Building today, from the main gate through the second gate to the entrance of the small building’s main hall, a long red carpet had been laid out to ensure that the newlyweds’ feet wouldn’t touch the ground.
Chun Hua and Yang He supported Nian Qianqian out of the room, while her long veil was carried by Sini and Xiaofeng on either side, dressed in pink cotton jackets, resembling the benevolent children who stand before the Bodhisattva.
Standing at the door, Nian Qianqian looked around in confusion. Why hasn’t that old fellow come out yet?
Yang Ruxin glanced at Changyangzi, who was hiding behind people, feeling a bit helpless, and sent another look at Du Chengxiu.
Du Chengxiu walked over and pulled him out.
Today, Changyangzi was also dressed in a moon-white robe, his hair full of silver threads was styled into a bun with a white jade hairpin, and his white brows and beard gave him an air of elegance and ethereal quality. At the moment, he was holding a big red silk flower and walked up to Nian Qianqian with a flushed face, looking back at Yang Ruxin for reassurance.
Yang Ruxin nodded hurriedly.
Changyangzi took a deep breath and suddenly knelt on one knee.
Nian Qianqian took a startled step back: "Brother Changyang, you..."
"Qianqian, Xinxin said we are different from those young people. Our feelings have already reached deep into our bones, but I just never realized it," Changyangzi said, no longer feeling nervous after opening his mouth. "Thank you for your unwavering support all these years; now let me protect you in the days to come."
Nian Qianqian’s eyes widened instantly, and tears involuntarily rolled down her cheeks.
