Chapter 399: Engagement Arrives, Male and Female "Groomsmen".
The fifth day of the Lunar New Year is the day for folks to break all taboos. All New Year rules can be ignored and it is a good day to break the old and start the new.
Suitable for traveling, getting married, visiting relatives...
After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it is also a good day for many people to choose to get married or engaged.
From time to time, wedding processions can be seen bustling through the bustling streets of Shanghai.
Today is also the day when Xu Musen officially comes to get engaged.
Xu's father and mother got up excitedly at three or four in the morning, put on the custom-made suits and dresses that they had never been willing to wear, and spent a long time in disguise.
Xu Musen also put on the suit that he had prepared, which was custom-made together with An Nuannuan's wedding dress.
Although the expensive suits are at a premium, you get what you pay for. The tips are made of New Zealand wool, the details are made of gold thread, and the buttons are polished from natural gemstones. The cost of this suit is as high as six figures.
There is no exaggerated style, but it can set off Xu Musen's figure just right. He has an upright figure, long legs, broad shoulders and back, and has the temperament of a noble man.
"My son is so handsome!"
When Xu's mother saw her son come out after changing his clothes, she couldn't help but walk forward and look at him carefully several times.
It’s like appreciating a work of art that you created yourself. You feel so happy that you feel a lot younger.
"Mom looks beautiful today too."
Xu Musen smiled and spoke.
"Of course, we can't embarrass our handsome son today!"
Xu's mother suddenly became happier and laughed out loud.
"Now you're talking about your son. Didn't you disown him after we had a fight before?"
Father Xu came over and joked.
"Go away, your tie is not even tied properly."
Xu's mother rolled her eyes at him and reached out to help him adjust his suit and tie.
Xu Musen went to pack up and prepare to leave. Xu's mother looked at her son and couldn't help sighing.
"You've really grown up. You're engaged, and you have your own family..."
As she spoke, she remembered something else: "By the way, haven't Mingyue and her mother arrived in Shanghai yet?"
"It's said that it's snowing in Zhengcheng today, so the flight is a little delayed. We should be able to arrive before the engagement party starts."
"That's good...Alas, I don't know what Mingyue will think."
When mentioning Yao Mingyue, they still felt a little worried, but in the end they could only shake their heads. Today was a happy day, and everything just needed to be stable.
Xu Musen did not prepare a motorcade. After all, he was not getting married yet, and it would not be a good idea to make a big fuss about it.
When he finished packing and went downstairs, there were already three cars parked downstairs.
Although there are only three cars, the lineup is very impressive.
Leading the group was a Rolls-Royce with a little golden man on it. Zhou Hangyu, wearing a pair of sunglasses and a neat suit, got out of the car in a dashing manner, shaking his hair.
Li Rundong, who was also wearing a suit, got out of the Mulsanne Bentley at the back, and the last person to get out of the Maybach was Ma Yaxing.
"Boss Xu! Uncle and aunt, congratulations!"
Three people came down and greeted with a smile.
"Thank you for helping me today. Be sure to eat more when we get to the hotel."
Mother Xu spoke with a smile.
"Of course I should. Don't worry, Auntie. I won't be polite to you today!" Zhou Hangyu replied with a smile.
Xu Musen looked at the three of them and couldn't help laughing: "You guys are such showoffs. I didn't ask you to be best men, but you all wore suits."
These three people posed, looking like a trio.
"Boss Nuan Nuan has a beautiful lady to support her, so we can't lose face for our boss Xu!"
"Go away! I think you three are just trying to show off!"
"Hahaha, you are the best at judging people!"
"But Brother Sen, your suit is so handsome. Where did you get it custom-made? Mine cost tens of thousands of dollars, but it looks like cheap merchandise compared to yours."
Zhou Hangyu leaned over to look at Xu Musen's suit and had to admit that Xu Musen looked very handsome today!
They were all wearing suits, and what they were wearing wasn't cheap at all, but when standing next to Xu Musen, they suddenly looked like real estate agents handing out flyers at a subway entrance.
“It’s mainly temperament.”
Xu Musen waved his hand and looked towards the next floor. He smiled and said, "It's almost time. Let's go!"
"okay!"
"Salute to lead the way, grow old together!"
Fireworks are not allowed in Shanghai, but Zhou Hangyu and his team still got some firecrackers and salutes, which made the scene very lively with the crackling sounds.
set off.
The three cars set off in an orderly manner.
Behind them, a black business car quietly followed at the intersection.
……
At this moment, An Nuannuan's house was also bustling with lights and decorations.
An Nuannuan sat in front of the dressing table. Although a beauty of her level didn't need to wear makeup, today was a special day, so she definitely hoped to be more beautiful than usual.
An Nuannuan didn’t know how to put on makeup. She was even too lazy to tidy up her hair before going out, leaving it disheveled. Throughout high school, not many people noticed this incredibly beautiful girl.
Behind her, Zhao Lianmai was using a comb to help her tidy up her smooth hair.
"Nuannuan, do you have a favorite hairstyle?"
Zhao Lianmai looked at her silky, soft and thick hair, which looked like cotton candy.
An Nuannuan shook her head: "I don't know..."
It seems that Xu Musen has never said that he has any particular favorite hairstyle.
Zhao Lianmai saw what she was thinking and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle in his heart.
As long as it’s An Nuannuan, even the bald Xu Musen would like her.
Zhao Lianmai thought about it, thinking that today was the engagement party and Nuannuan was going to wear a wedding dress, so she reached out and helped her comb a very delicate and gentle hairstyle. She twisted the hair on both sides of her temples into two semicircles and braided them into two delicate small pigtails on the left and right sides behind her head.
The long hair in the middle is spread out smoothly, and it looks like a waterfall flowing down between the two braids, adding a bit of gentleness to the whole person.
An Nuannuan has a slightly chubby face, which makes her look a little more adorable, but it is a bit of a contrast to her identity as a bride-to-be who is getting engaged today.
It would be more perfect with a little light makeup.
But Zhao Lianmai didn’t know how to put on makeup. She looked at the cosmetics on the dressing table and exchanged a glance with An Nuannuan.
Obviously, neither of them had much experience with makeup.
The skin care product she has used the most since she was a child is Dabao SOD honey.
Now that she has money, she has been to cosmetics stores before, but when she saw that a lipstick costs three or four hundred yuan, and a bottle of so-called magic water costs four or five hundred yuan, she turned around and went to the market to buy half a pig and brought it home, which she couldn't finish in a month or two...
"Nuan Nuan."
At this time, another figure appeared at the door of the room.
Zhu Yulan walked in. She saw the two people staring at each other in front of the dressing table and immediately knew what was going on.
She smiled and said, "Let me do it."
Zhu Yulan picked up these bottles and jars and introduced them while helping An Nuannuan put on makeup: "This is moisturizing. It's best to spray it before putting on makeup. Otherwise, if your skin is dry, it will be easy for the foundation to get stuck if you apply it directly. You should also try to choose a foundation that matches your lighter skin tone. Just apply a little blush and let it blend slowly, otherwise it will look like a monkey's butt. Don't draw eyeliner repeatedly..."
As she spoke, Zhao Lianmai and An Nuannuan listened attentively. Girls were as talented in this area as boys were in watching electronic products, and they listened with great interest. "Okay."
Zhu Yulan put all the cosmetics back. In the mirror, An Nuannuan's cheeks were lightly rubbed with blush, which made her cute baby-fat face look a little more plump. With a little shadow and a little eyeliner, her bright eyes looked even deeper. Her lips were also painted with a light pink hue, which made An Nuannuan's already flawless skin look even whiter.
As for makeup, this is already the lightest of the light.
On the one hand, Zhu Yulan has excellent makeup skills.
What’s more important is An Nuannuan’s natural beauty, and makeup is just the icing on the cake, bringing out all the advantages that already belong to her.
With the hairstyle braided by Zhao Lianmai, An Nuannuan is so beautiful at this moment that it is hard to take your eyes off her.
"Nuannuan, you are so beautiful. No wonder you can be so charming to him."
Zhu Yulan couldn't help but speak. In fact, she felt mixed emotions when she came here today to witness their engagement moment.
But she had to admit that An Nuannuan was really beautiful, and she considered herself a great beauty.
But someone like An Nuannuan is probably a fairy.
It’s probably like an ordinary beauty meeting Liu Yifei?
"Thank you, I didn't expect I could look so good."
An Nuannuan looked at herself in the mirror and felt a little embarrassed and her face turned red. She really looked much better than usual.
"You are beautiful to begin with."
Zhu Yulan smiled and was convinced.
"elder sister!"
A brisk and crisp voice was heard, and An Nannan came running over holding an exquisite white gift box.
"Sister, this is what my brother-in-law gave me yesterday, so I can give it to you today!"
An Nuannuan looked at the exquisite gift box in front of her and roughly knew what it was.
She took it and held it in her hand. It wasn't very heavy, but An Nuannuan's hands had already begun to tremble slightly with excitement.
She slowly opened the exquisite packaging of the gift box, and it seemed as if a ray of pure white holy light was pouring out from the gift box.
"Wow~"
An Nannan jumped and skipped as she watched, her big eyes suddenly sparkling!
Zhu Yulan and Zhao Lianmai also looked over and were a little dazed for a moment.
Inside the gift box, there was a neatly folded white wedding dress, as soft as the clouds in the sky. An Nuannuan recognized it as the one she had tried on when she and Xu Musen went to the bridal shop together and liked it the most.
It was obvious that the dress had been carefully retouched according to her figure, and the white skirt was dotted with colorful diamonds and gems.
A wedding dress is the most important piece of clothing in any woman's life.
"I knew it……"
When An Nuannuan looked at the wedding dress, she thought of the scene when Xu Musen secretly went back to order the wedding dress that day.
A great feeling of happiness of being wrapped in sweetness.
Zhu Yulan and Zhao Lianmai were staring at the wedding dress for a long time. It was really beautiful.
"Boss Xu... is really thoughtful. I won't believe anyone who says he is straight from now on..."
There was a hint of envy in Zhu Yulan's tone. It was true that there were no straight men in this world. She just hadn't met someone who was willing to spend time on her.
“What a beautiful dress!”
An Nannan's eyes sparkled. She reached out her hand to touch it but retracted it. She stamped her feet impatiently: "Sister, please put it on quickly. It must be very, very, very beautiful!"
Zhu Yulan and Zhao Lianmai also nodded, and pulled An Nannan out of the room tacitly.
An Nuannuan looked at the wedding dress in her hand with a smile on her face. She had been waiting for this wedding dress for too long...
After a while, An Nannan gently pushed open the door and poked her head out: "Sister, you are wearing... Wow wow wow!!"
An Nannan's eyes suddenly sparkled as if a flash of light had been turned on.
Zhu Yulan and Zhao Lianmai also walked in, and were stunned for a moment when they saw An Nuannuan in the room.
At this moment, An Nuannuan is wearing a white wedding dress. The fluffy and soft wedding dress is like the wings of an angel, and she is more like an angel descended from the earth. Her whole body seems to be emitting a holy light that makes people feel warm.
She stood quietly in front of the mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, who was so beautiful that it was unspeakable. She smiled softly. It turned out that... a girl wearing a wedding dress and waiting for her beloved to marry her is really so beautiful.
The regrets of the past, the silent waiting and dedication of those days, all seemed to be compensated at this moment.
The feeling of sweetness after bitterness, along with An Nuannuan's smile, makes people unable to look away for a moment.
Zhao Lianmai and Zhu Yulan looked at An Nuannuan at this moment, as if they were meeting her for the first time.
It's really strange. An Nuannuan, who has always been the cutest, now has a gentle, virtuous and mature temperament that none of them have.
Should I say...is this the difference between a girl and a woman?
Zhu Yulan and Zhao Lianmai looked at each other. Perhaps the only strong opponent like them could be Yao Mingyue, their childhood sweetheart.
However, Zhu Yulan has always been very confused. Yao Mingyue has not appeared until now. This does not fit her character setting...
My grandparents also dressed up specially. My grandmother wore a Shanghai-style cheongsam of their era, while my grandfather wore a bright-colored brocade gown.
It’s like going back to the Shanghai era, and this is the most fashionable outfit they wore when they were young.
They came to An Nuannuan's room and looked at their granddaughter in her wedding dress. They were happy and relieved, but they couldn't help feeling a little sad in the corners of their eyes. After today, their eldest granddaughter would have to follow someone else.
An Shanhai also came over. Looking at his daughter in her wedding dress, he seemed to see her twenty years ago, waiting for him in a white wedding dress...
It also seemed as if I saw An Nuannuan when she was just born and growing up year by year. I always felt that she was still a child, but in the blink of an eye, she was really going to get married.
He walked over, looked at his daughter, and didn't say a word for a long time.
"dad."
An Nuannuan called out, she lifted the hem of her skirt and walked over to give her father a gentle hug.
An Shanhai's eyes were sore that he almost couldn't control his tears. He wanted to touch his daughter's head, but when he saw his daughter's exquisite hairstyle, he withdrew his hand.
He looked at An Nuannuan quietly for a long time, and finally smiled with red eyes.
"My daughter is so beautiful, that boy got her so cheap."
An Shanhai has always spoken very little, and even less often makes jokes, but today he said this with tears glistening in the corners of his eyes.
"Drip..."
There was a sound of car beeping outside the house.
The yellow-haired man who was supposed to come finally came.
An Shanhai took a deep breath, smiled and gently scratched his daughter's nose, just like when they were little.
"Well, your young fiancé is here. There aren't many opportunities. Let me, his future father-in-law, show off my power this time."
An Shanhai smiled and said that it was a tradition to give a little "show of power" when the son-in-law came into the house.
Of course, he would not really make things difficult for Xu Musen, but just add some fun like in "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One - Pandora's Box".
"Uh-huh!"
An Nuannuan also smiled sweetly. In fact, the fact that her father could say this proved that he now regarded Xu Musen as his own family member.
"Let's go."
"Here I come! Hehehe, brother-in-law, don't blame me!"
An Nannan was the most excited. She jumped up and down, ready to block the door and ask for red envelopes.
I am his only sister-in-law, and today is a good day to ask for a red envelope from my brother-in-law openly!
Look at me, the sister-in-law, squeezing this stinky brother-in-law's...wallet dry!
Jie Jie Jie! !
Here it comes. Today’s post is a bit short, mainly because the next chapter has a big plot, and once it’s over, it will almost be the finale. Thanks to the book friends who have read this far, the ending is very near.
