Chapter 389 Deng Yunheng’s wedding

seven in the morning.

 Regal Hotel.

 20 wedding cars lined up from Regal Hotel to Weiwei Alley. Fortunately, there were few cars in this era. Ninety-nine percent of the cars traveling in the county were bicycles, and the remaining one percent were motorcycles and other vehicles.

 So, this long convoy of wedding cars did not cause a traffic jam.

However, the cars were not blocked, but the people were.

Have people in the county seen such a grand reception? After seeing such a scene, not only did everyone come up to watch, many people also went back to call their family members to open their eyes.

In just ten minutes, thousands of people gathered near the Regal Hotel, and the place was completely packed.

In addition to these onlookers, there are also leaders of the county government and guests from all over the country who have also gathered here.

“I came to the Regal Hotel to pick up my bride. It seems that the bride is not a local!”

"Now I'm not interested in where the bride is from. I just want to know who the groom is? Why is he so awesome?"

"It's really awesome. This ostentation is really huge. 10 cars and 10 buses are used to pick up the bride. Who the **** would dare to think about this. For ordinary people, having a wedding car like this is already awesome. Okay?"

“You only know that it is a car, but you probably don’t know what kind of car it is and how much it costs, right?”

“What, do you know this car?”

"Of course I know it. This car is called Santana. It is a very high-end car. I heard that one costs at least 200,000 yuan. The price of these 10 brand-new Santanas is already more than 2 million yuan, let alone 10 buses. Woolen cloth!"

 “Awesome, so awesome, who is this groom?”

　　　…”

The onlookers were talking a lot, and they were all very curious about the identity of the groom. After all, the ceremony was really grand, and it was the first of its kind in Bobai's marriage history.

While everyone was whispering, more than ten people came down carrying exquisite woven bamboo baskets filled with candies. They came to distribute wedding candies to everyone.

Chinese people pay attention to a good start. On a wedding day like this, as long as conditions permit, it is normal to give out wedding candy to everyone. However, there are too many onlookers today. If it were someone else getting married, I guess I can't afford this wedding candy.

After all, there are at least two to three thousand people at the scene. Even if each person only gives out one wedding candy, it will cost two to three thousand candies. How many grooms can afford it?

 However, for the Deng family, this is not a problem, and each person is not given one wedding candy, but each person is given a handful of wedding candy.

This handwriting undoubtedly shocked the onlookers.

Immediately, someone who received the wedding candy asked: "Hello, I would like to ask, who is the groom today? We have eaten the wedding candy and want to give him a few blessings."

Then the person in charge of handing out the wedding candies replied with a smile: "Thank you everyone, today's groom is Deng Yunheng, the second son of our Ye Deng clan leader."

 As a result, the news spread quickly on the scene, and everyone who heard the news was relieved.

It turned out that the son of the head of the Nayedeng clan was getting married. No wonder there was such a grand ceremony.

Nowadays, in Bobai, everyone knows the prestige of the Naye Deng clan. Everyone knows that this clan is the richest clan in the county. According to rumors, every household of the Naye Deng clan now has a rich family. They all have at least tens of thousands in savings, and they are really rich.

 As the head of the Nayedeng clan, it goes without saying that he has economic strength.

 While giving out wedding candies to passers-by at the scene, the photographer also recorded these scenes.

As for guests like Zhao Jing and others who came from all over the country, they were not shocked when they saw these twenty "luxury" wedding cars. They had experienced the shock of the house in Naye Deng's community. Although this wedding car was also powerful, it was already shocking. No more for them.

Not to mention the leaders of the county government, they know the strength of the Naye Deng family best. They use so few wedding cars, which is already very low-key.

When the wedding candies were almost distributed, the bride and groom walked out of the Regal Hotel, accompanied by the receptionists and wedding guests.

The overall looks of the bride and groom are carefully designed by stylists. They are the focus of the audience as soon as they appear, and the onlookers are amazed.

 “Wow, this bride is so beautiful!”

 “Yes, she is so beautiful, just like those beautiful female stars on TV.”

"The groom is not bad either. He looks quite impressive. He is worthy of being the son of the leader of the Yedeng clan."

“What a perfect match between a talented man and a beautiful woman!”

　　　…”

Amid the murmurs of the onlookers, the bride and groom, the wedding guests, and the people who picked up the bride got on the car one after another.

Needless to say, the bride and groom took the first car. The wedding guests and the receptionists also got into the car. There were still some seats left, so Deng Shirong arranged for his second son's old leader Zhao Jing and a few old colleagues to take the car.

As for my second son’s classmates and alumni at Peking University, as well as leaders from the county government, they were arranged to take buses.

As well as my own family members and other helpers from the clan, they all took buses.

Once everyone got on the car and the photographers were in place, the 20 wedding cars slowly left the Regal Hotel and headed towards Naye Village under the gaze of thousands of people.

It is about 80 kilometers from the county seat to Naye Village, passing through the towns of Yashan, Wangmao, Hejiang, Dongping and Songwang along the way.

In this era, highways had to pass through the streets of various towns. Every time they arrived at a town, these 20 wedding cars would cause a huge sensation, making everyone who saw the wedding car convoy spit and spit with others who did not see it. Brag.

From the county town to Songwang Town, they are all county-level highways. The road condition is not bad. After all, it is an asphalt road. Although the roadbed is a bit small, the road is a bit curved, and there are many uphill and downhill, but at least the road surface is smooth and there are no There were a lot of potholes, but it was pretty smooth to walk on.

Along the way, the woman and her party, as well as the guests who came from all over the country, looked at the scenery outside the window with great interest. There were low mountains everywhere, the roads were winding and winding, and the architectural style was completely different from theirs. The place feels quite new to them.

However, when we started to take a small road from the Tanlian intersection and drove towards Shuangwang, the narrow and bumpy road conditions caused the cars and buses to start to shake, shaking the wedding guests and most of the guests until they were dizzy. Dazzling.

In the first car, Gu Caiwei was shaken so hard that she could only lean on Deng Yunheng's arms and said, "Brother Heng, why are your roads in Shuangwang Township so dilapidated?"

Deng Yunheng sighed: "There is no way. Our Shuangwang Township is not on the county road, and the geographical location is not good. In addition, there are many mountains here and the roads are not easy to repair. This is the only way we can do it for the time being."

Gu Caiwei asked: "How far is it from here to home?"

Deng Yunheng said: "It's about ten kilometers. The road is not easy to walk. It will take a long time. Please bear with it!"

Gu Caiwei hummed and said, "I'm fine."

 A certain bus, and many leaders of the county government were also there.

At this time, the bus kept shaking, causing many leaders to sweat.

They, the county leaders, basically know this section of the road and know that it needs to be repaired.

However, the development of the county must have priorities. Compared with building this section of road, they believe that there are other more important things to do. This is why the Shuangwang Township Government reported that it wants the county to allocate funds to build the road. County leaders like them Reasons no one wants to agree to.

But now and then, the leaders of the county government, one by one, are eager to repair this road immediately.

 Because today, it is not just county leaders like them who are taking this path, but also leaders from all over the country, including provincial leaders.

If someone just passed by by chance, it would be nothing, but now this provincial leader has become the in-law of the head of the Nayedeng clan, which means that this leader will not only come once, and there is no telling when he will come again.

Such a bad road condition allows such a big leader to run back and forth. How can any of the leaders in these places stand still?

Even though they are not the leaders of their province, but the leaders of Hubei, there is a province in between!

 But they have all been involved in the system, and they all know how extensive the network of officials is.

 The bigger the official, the wider the network of connections. For such a big official, who can guarantee that he will not have any familiar leaders in Guangxi?

 At that time, if someone complains in front of the leaders in Guangxi and complains about the road conditions here, I am afraid that all of their leaders here will be unable to eat and walk away.

Therefore, the deputy county magistrate in charge of the Transportation Bureau took the lead and said: "Last year, the Shuangwang Township Government submitted a report, hoping that the county could allocate funds to build roads in the township. Before, the conditions were not mature, so I submitted this report to Pressed down.

 Now, I think the conditions are mature. I wonder what everyone thinks? "

The deputy county magistrate stood up, and another deputy county magistrate immediately answered: "I also think that the conditions for road construction are now mature."

Another deputy county magistrate said: "This section of road has indeed reached the point where it has to be repaired."

The county magistrate nodded and said: "This section of road now has a bearing on the image of our county. Coupled with the rapid development of Shuangwang Naye Deng's family, sooner or later it will drive the development of the entire village and even the entire township, and build a wide road. Asphalt road, I think it is very necessary, what do you think, Secretary?”

Secretary Song said: "The county magistrate is right. This road is indeed related to the image of our county. Let's hold a meeting tomorrow to implement this matter!"

Other leaders nodded one after another, and with just a few words, the leaders unified their thinking.

 …

More than ten kilometers of road, if it were a highway in later generations, it would only take a few minutes to get there, but on such a bumpy and winding road, the entire convoy took more than half an hour to reach the Nayedeng clan's area.

 Then, the road conditions changed drastically.

 From these dirt roads with narrow roadbeds and bumpy roads, they instantly turned into 60-meter-wide cement roads with green belts in the middle.

At the same time, a very domineering arch was built at the junction of the cement road and the dirt road. This arch is certainly not the inflatable arch of later generations, which did not appear until the mid-1990s. The current arch is made of bamboo wood. It was set up with red cloth and balloons hung on it.

There is a line of words written at the top. In the front are the two big words "Congratulations". In the middle, it says the groom Deng Yunheng at the top, the bride Gu Caiwei at the bottom, and the wedding anniversary at the back.

Gu Caiwei, who was sitting in the lead car, saw it immediately, and her heart was really full of surprises. The groom's family really paid attention to this wedding. Behind this arch, there are colorful balloons all the way, with countless 囍 characters mixed in among them.

This scene was not only seen by Gu Caiwei, but also by the bridegroom and many guests. They were all amazed.

 In later generations, such arrangements can be said to be commonplace, and no one would find it strange.

 But such an arrangement in this era would really be a massacre, shocking everyone.

You must know that the balloons were not only deployed for a few dozen meters, but the entire 60-meter village road was deployed. The number of balloons used was astonishing.

The photographer recorded all these scenes and took a lot of photos. They have taken a lot of videos and photos, but they have never taken a big scene like today's wedding banquet. As a photographer, I am also very excited. Incessantly.

Of course, in addition to the layout of the groom’s house that amazed everyone, there was also this 60-meter avenue that should not appear here, which also attracted everyone’s attention.

It would not be surprising if such a wide cement road appeared in a big city, but when it appeared in such a remote mountain village, the feeling was different, especially compared with the narrow and bumpy dirt road before. Than, the contrast is really huge.

In addition to the 60-meter avenue that shocked the guests, the guests were also surprised by the contiguous buildings dozens of meters away on the left.

Although these buildings are only the foundations at present, and there is still a long way to go before they are actually completed, the building complex is really too big. It starts from the 60-meter Avenue and continues continuously. How long is this road? The building is as long as it is.

 Such a scene made the guests talk a lot.

This 60-meter road is all cement pavement. It takes more than two kilometers to reach Deng Shirong's home. Because the road is wide and easy to walk, it only takes less than three minutes to get home.

The area in front of Deng Shirong's house is still adequate, and it is no problem to park 20 wedding cars.

At home, Xiao Donger and Dongzi had been waiting eagerly. When they saw the wedding car coming back, the two little guys cheered excitedly. As soon as the car stopped, the two little guys couldn't wait to run over.

When the bride and groom got out of the car, Xiao Donger exclaimed: "Wow, Second Aunt, you are so beautiful today!"

Gu Caiwei reached out and touched her little head, and praised with a smile on her face: "Xiao Dong'er, you are also very beautiful today!"

Deng Yunheng laughed and said: "Xiao Dong'er, Dongzi, is my second uncle handsome today?"

 Xiao Dong'er nodded and said, "Handsome, my second uncle is particularly handsome today."

Dongzi nodded like a yes man: "Second uncle is very handsome today."

At this time, other guests also got out of the car. Seeing the Deng family's large blue brick house with tiles, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The building was finally normal.

Deng Shirong came to Zhao Jing and said with a smile: "Boss, you can rest at home first, or you can go to the place where the wine is placed."

Zhao Jing smiled and said, "Okay, where is the place where the wine is?"

Deng Shirong reached out and pointed to the low mountain on the left and said, "It's right there."

Zhao Jing looked in the direction Deng Shirong pointed and saw the exquisite building at a glance. She was surprised and said, "Uncle Deng, that is that?"

Deng Shirong said: "That's our Naye Deng's Ancestral Hall. If the leader is interested, you can visit it."

Zhao Jing nodded and said: "Okay, then Uncle Deng, please go ahead and do your work. My colleagues and I will go over and visit."

Deng Shirong hummed, then came to the in-laws and guests and said the same thing.

The Deng family made the wedding so grand today that Gu's father and mother also wanted to see the wine scene, and the other guests had the same intention.

Thereupon, everyone marched toward the Nayedeng ancestral hall.

 As for the bride and groom, they have to go to the ancestors first according to the custom here.

The Deng's Ancestral Hall in Naye is very close to Deng Shirong's home. The straight-line distance is less than 50 meters. To go further, you need to make a circle, which is only more than 100 meters away, so the guests quickly walked to the place where the wine was served.

At this time, the entrance of the ancestral hall was already filled with tables and chairs. There were at least several hundred tables, arranged neatly.

The arrangement of tables and chairs is also full of celebration, and various Chinese characters can be seen everywhere. People can tell at a glance that this is a wedding reception.

On the left and right sides, there are two rows of temporary stoves, and more than a dozen chefs hired with money are busy.

However, these were just a glance for everyone, and they were soon attracted by the majestic ancestral hall.

 Then, all the guests, including Gu’s father and Gu’s mother, all walked towards the ancestral hall.

When they got closer, they were even more shocked.

The door of the ancestral hall is carved with dragons and phoenixes, and various lifelike reliefs show that this ancestral hall is definitely not an ordinary ancestral hall.

After entering the ancestral hall, it was an eye-opener for all the guests.

They had never heard of such a magnificent ancestral hall before, let alone seen it before. This ancestral hall was definitely the most exquisite and exquisite among the ancestral halls they had ever seen.

After appreciating this picturesque ancestral hall, everyone stood in front of the family merit monument and began to read the preface of the ancestral hall.

 After reading the preface to the stele, the next step was for the family to donate and erect the stele. The first thing that caught everyone's attention was undoubtedly the Deng Shirong family's family merit stele, which occupies the largest space.

Originally, the guests did not know much about the Deng Shirong family. Only after reading the introduction of the merit monument did they truly understand the situation of the Deng family.

 “Oh my god, this Uncle Deng is so awesome!”

“Yes, it’s really incredible. In less than ten years, it has developed from nothing to where it is today. It’s really incredible.”

“No wonder County Magistrate Deng was never short of money when he was studying. He was recognized as one of the richest people in the school. It seems that Uncle Deng was already well-off at that time, and the family was indeed not short of money!”

“I admire him. He led the entire clan to become rich. Uncle Deng is really awesome.”

“Uncle Deng is so ambitious. If it were anyone else, he would have done such a good way to make money by himself, so he would not be willing to lead the whole family to do it together!”

“It is said that like father, like son, it seems that County Magistrate Deng’s success is not accidental, but inevitable.”

“Under the leadership of an outstanding parent like Uncle Deng, the whole family is thriving, and all the children have their own potential. It is really a model for our generation to learn from.”

“Uncle Deng donated more than 300,000 yuan just to build this ancestral hall. This financial resource is really terrifying.”

　　　…”

 After reading this family merit monument, all the guests were full of praise for the Deng family, including people with extraordinary family backgrounds like Zhao Jing and Li Haibo, who all felt amazed.

 Indeed, our country has always had an official-oriented mentality from ancient times to the present. Rich people are nothing in front of powerful people.

 However, this comparison also depends on how big the official is and how much money he has.

They all know from side information that the current assets of Deng Shirong's family should reach tens of millions, and this wealth is still growing rapidly. This asset was really impressive in the 1990s.

 The key point is that the money that someone earned in just a few years based on their strength is completely different from the money that was obtained through dishonorable means.

 In short, from this moment on, all the guests valued Deng Yunheng even more.

 He was already good enough in his own right, and now he is the son-in-law of a provincial leader and has a super-capable father. Who wouldn’t make friends with such a promising person?

After reading the introduction of the family merit monument, the Gu family also showed expressions of surprise. Originally, their family only valued Deng Yunheng as an outstanding son-in-law, and did not care much about the son-in-law's family background. Neither Gu's father nor his mother was the type to value a well-matched family. people.

However, when I went to Nanning to visit my family last year, the Wuyue Plaza where my son-in-law lived was a little shocking to the Gu family, letting them know that the son-in-law’s family background was still very good, even though he was from a rural area and had no background. But the economic conditions are better than those of the vast majority of people in the country.

It goes without saying now that the in-laws are even better than they imagined, which is naturally an unexpected surprise for their Gu family.

While everyone was admiring the stele of family merits, they had already finished paying homage to Grandpa Grandpa’s bride and groom, and came to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors of the Nayedeng family.

By the time these processes are completed, it will be almost noon.

At this time, the people in the clan who were responsible for receiving the guests began to greet the guests to sit down. The wedding guests, guests from all over the country, and the leaders of the county government were naturally arranged to have better seats in the front.

Others, such as the leaders of the township government and prominent clan members from various places, have a slightly lower position.

The rest of the seats are for relatives, friends and clan members.

There is no way. Our country has always attached great importance to seating. Many of the guests present today are officials. Naturally, Deng Shirong cannot arrange the seats randomly. He basically arranges the seats according to rank and distance.

 Also, try to categorize everyone so that everyone can feel more comfortable when eating and drinking.

 For example, Deng Yunheng’s colleagues in the ministry let them sit at the same table.

Peking University classmates, alumni, fellow villagers, etc., try to arrange for them to sit at the same table.

 The leaders of the county government sat at the same table.

 After all the guests were seated, Deng Shirong, the male head of the family, took the stage to deliver a speech.

 …
