Three days later.

In Beijing, Lu Sen, a company commander of a company in the garrison, received a big red invitation, inviting him to attend a wedding held in Fuzhou a week later. Just when he was in a dilemma about the issue of vacation, the director of the regiment political department called in person and asked him with concern how many days of vacation he needed, and said that the leader had already said hello.

In Chongqing, Wang Dahai, deputy director of the Department of X, Department of the People's Liberation Army, received the same invitation. The dean of the college called him personally to ask when he would set off, saying that it was to book air tickets for him to facilitate his purchase.

Xinjiang, Feng Dongmin, captain and staff officer of an artillery regiment of the Xinjiang Military Region, received an invitation;

Lin Feng, the lieutenant and company commander of the first company of the x battalion of the xx regiment of the xx infantry division of the xx army, received an invitation;

Zhang Qing, the technician of the company-level x-communication station in Nanjing, received an invitation...

Within three days, more than 50 company-level officers from the army, navy and air force, all over the world received my invitation. With the help of Mr. Zhong, the unit they were in was very readily approved for leave without exception. A wealthy unit like Hai Ge's military academy also generously bought him air tickets - according to regulations, he could only enjoy hard bed treatment.

Yes, I have always had a wish for two years, to gather my comrades distributed in the motherland, across the land, sea, air and artillery units, to have a good conversation about parting, smoke, drink, and brag together...

As we all know, it is difficult for students from military academies to get together neatly after graduation, because each unmarried cadre only has 30 days off. Of course, this is not the main reason. The main reason is that the time of vacation is not something you can decide. Whether you can approve it after you apply depends on the recent work arrangements of the troops or the number of people on vacation, and even the mood of the supervisor. Therefore, more than 50 people take leave and get together on the same date, which is almost zero.

This time, I took advantage of the wedding opportunity to ask Zhong Lao'an to send someone to help say hello to each army, and this basically impossible wish came true. Five days later, except for a comrade who was sorry to send me a telegram because the army was practicing, the whole class of 55 students reached 54, plus Shanghai Brother and Captain Gao, and all the old acquaintances when they went to the military academy were basically here.

I booked the entire West Lake Hotel, including the guest room and catering department. Although the cost was huge, for the sake of the guests' comrades and the guests' fun, what was the point of spending some money? When I paid the bill, my parents, who were so happy that they couldn't stop, took out the gold card without saying a word. Recently, my father made a lot of money in the stock market. Since he entered the real estate industry, his economic sensitivity has become very strong. In this crazy national gambling, he intervened relatively early, so his assets at least doubled.

The wedding will only begin two days later. Although I was very busy, Lin Feng, who was also in Fuzhou, had already taken the opportunity to take a vacation. So he led his old comrades and leaders to run around Fuzhou, such as Gushan, Xichan Temple, Shibazhong Creek; Dongjiekou, Taijiang Pedestrian Street, Zhongting Street... The city, suburbs, famous mountain temples, commercial centers... This special tour group consisting of soldiers was playing at an astonishing speed in two days. It is said that this tour group played an extremely critical role in the growth of Fuzhou's economy, especially those brothers who had money and had no place to spend after the army raised their wages - their bases were usually deep in the mountains or in the desert Gobi...

During the day, I am usually in the Thunder Brigade. Although the entire brigade has not arranged any high-intensity training these two days because of my wedding, I still insist on handling the general work myself. After get off work in the evening, I will take Xiaoying to have dinner with my comrades and happily recall the military school time. At this time, I feel that I am the most relaxed. After graduation, I have been tensing that string. For more than two years, I have almost no time to stop and have come to today step by step. It seems that I have achieved certain achievements, but in fact I am quite tired. Talking with my comrades is really a very pleasant thing, because we are talking for the sake of talking, not for any other reason, without any other purpose.

Because of my wedding, the Thunder Brigade was also full of festive atmosphere - although my wedding was held at the West Lake Hotel and most officers and soldiers could not attend, everyone supported me from the bottom of their hearts. After the news of my marriage spread, everyone's face was filled with joy, and it was obvious that they were really happy for me. The female soldiers of the health team also carefully decorated the military camp. They said that the captain got married, no matter where the wedding was held, the camp should have red, which was auspicious...

The brothers of the Shadow Group basically didn't come here. On the one hand, they didn't like it when there were too many people. And so many shadows got together, they still got together with many others. It would be bad if they leaked the secrets; on the other hand, Lei Jun also said that the Shadow Group was very busy recently, and most of them probably didn't have much time! However, the blessing calls came one by one, which showed that they did not forget me.

At the wedding, we invited relatives, friends and old classmates, old leaders and colleagues of the xx Infantry Division, old Zhong, the leader of the group army and the main leaders of the Thunder Brigade, and Secretary Zhou of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection... In short, I have dealt with people in recent years, and I have basically invited people who feel good to me.

Two days later, Xiaoying and I were held as scheduled at the West Lake Hotel.

When the huge convoy came to Xiaoying's house to pick up the bride, the neighbors all exclaimed enviously, what kind of convoy is this? The beginning was two jeeps with flashing police lights and military license plates were opening the road, followed by an Audi A8 with the same military license plate. A discerning person could tell at a glance that this was the No. 1 car of the xx Group Army of Nanjing Military Region. The commander of the group army specially brought it to me for the wedding. The Audi A8 was followed by eight Audi A6s, which were almost all the high-end cars in the Fuzhou garrison. I also borrowed it for a lot of effort - of course, I didn't go under the banner of a certain leader.

Behind the military cars are local license plate vehicles, which are even more abnormal. My dad bought a Mercedes-Benz 600, some of his friends' Audis, Buicks, and Hyundai, but at my request, none of these 20 or 30 cars were Japanese, and I had no good feelings for the Japanese before. The experience of performing tasks for the first time after graduating from the military academy turned this feeling of disgust in my heart into hatred. So after forming the Thunder Brigade, we also purchased vehicles and other items on a large scale, but those logistics assistants all knew that one of my principles was that we could not use Japanese goods, and everything else was easy to discuss. This was a high-voltage line that we absolutely could not touch.

After getting off the ground, I got back to the point. Behind the local luxury car with a local license plate, two Ivecos with the same police lights were followed. Among the two vehicles behind, there were more than a dozen of the strongest soldiers of the Thunder Brigade. They and the five soldiers in the two jeeps in front were responsible for the safety of the trip.

The cool convoy drove past Xiaoying's door in a flash. We did not stop. The convoy drove directly onto the Second Ring Road and circled back to Xiaoying's home from the other side. Such a long convoy could not turn around on the spot, so this method was only adopted. When the Audi A8 I was riding was parked steadily at Xiaoying's door, the neighbors realized this time that the cool convoy was here to pick up the eldest daughter of the Shu family to get married. They all exclaimed a little envious and jealous.

The military temperament on me who was wearing a suit was still unconcealed - no matter what clothes a real soldier wore, the military temperament on me could be distinguished at a glance. I walked into Xiaoying's home with a standard soldier pace. Xiaoying, who had already put on makeup, looked even more beautiful. She was holding her mother's hand and didn't know what she was talking about.

Seeing me walking in, Xiaoying's sister Shu Zhao - she was still in college and came back from school to attend the wedding - pushed me out and said:

"Why are you in a hurry? Didn't you see my sister still talking to her mother?"

I said with a wry smile:

"Xiao Zhao, I'm not anxious, I'll wait here..."

According to the customs here, the wedding was held at the man's house the first day, and the woman's people did not attend. Similarly, the wedding was held at the woman's house the next day, so I patiently waited by Xiaoying to say goodbye to her parents. Although I was in the same city, I was inevitably sad when I got married.

Xiaoying's mother and my mother-in-law held her hand and said for a while. Xiaoying's father glanced at me, whispered a few words to them, and then took Xiaoying's hand and walked towards me.

He handed Xiaoying's hand into my hands and said seriously:

"Changfeng! I've handed over Xiaoying to you. I hope you can fulfill your promise and make Xiaoying happy. Otherwise, no matter how big the official you are, even if you become a general, I will not let you go!"

I said with a smile:

"Don't worry! I will definitely take good care of her, and she is also my baby!"

Xiaoying's mother gave her father a blank look and said:

"You should be happy to get married! Why are you talking to Changfeng with a stern face? You are not afraid of scaring your son-in-law!"

I said with a smile:

"It's okay, uncle...uh...daddy...daddy, mom..."

To be honest, I was a little uncomfortable with the first time I changed my mouth. My face couldn't help but blush. Xiaoying, who was a little sad, couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile. I looked at her and continued:

"I will remember what I said at the beginning for the rest of my life. Xiaoying will definitely be happy after following me. Don't worry!"

Xiaoying's father nodded and said:

"Okay, it's not that you have to go far. Xiaoying, don't cry. Wipe your tears and go with Changfeng. The guests in the hotel are still waiting!"

Xiaoying nodded, I nodded to Xiaoying's parents, then touched Xiao Zhao's hair, who was squinting, and walked out of the house with Xiaoying's hand.

Outside the door, a soldier in a dress and upright military posture immediately opened the door for us. I first helped Xiaoying get into the car, and then got into the car myself. The soldier closed the door for me, and then sat in the passenger seat. The third-level non-commissioned officer who was driving picked up the intercom in the car and said:

"Set off!"

The two jeeps that were opening the road in front slowly started, and our cars followed closely. Soon, this luxurious convoy left in the envious eyes of people. We left for a long time, and the onlookers were still discussing the title of the eldest son-in-law of the Shu family!

When the convoy arrived at the West Lake Hotel, Liu Yi, as the wedding host, had already led the guests to wait in the lobby, including Mr. Zhong who arrived yesterday. After Xiaoying and I got off the car, Xiaoying naturally took my arm and walked towards the welcome crowd.

"Bang, bang..."

Before we could reach the hotel lobby, a few dull sounds came from both sides, followed by colorful and sparkling colorful paper flying all over the sky. It turned out that Liu Yi was still "setting an ambush" on both sides of the road! We walked into the hall while the colorful paper was flying, and there were a total of fifty tables of banquets arranged here, which was the largest hall of West Lake Hotel.

Liu Yi quickly walked onto the temporary small stage, and the entire hall was arranged in a warm pink tone. The two wall-cast TVs in the hall were playing small films made of my wedding photos and Xiaoying's wedding photos. In the wonderful music, various wedding photos of Xiaoying and I appeared alternately. As soon as we appeared in the hall, all the lights immediately dimmed, and the spotlight attracted everyone's attention to the small stage.

The TV also stopped playing for the time being. Xiaoying and I walked slowly onto the stage. Liu Yi picked up the microphone and said:

"Dear leaders, guests, and friends, I am honored to host this wedding for Captain Lu!"

He paused for a moment, thought about it roughly, and then said:

"In this golden autumn October, in this harvest season, the relationship between Mr. Lu Changfeng and his lover Miss Shu Ying finally ushered in a harvest. More than three years ago, in a military academy in Chongqing, Lu Changfeng saw Shu Ying, who was as white as snow, for the first time, and he was deeply moved by Xiaoying. After that, Changfeng, who was still a military academy at the time, tried his best to pursue Xiaoying, and finally paid off. The two young people came together. Over the past three years, their footprints were spread all over the scenic spots in Chongqing and Fuzhou. They watched the sunset by the Jialing River and blew the wind on the banks of the Min River in Fuzhou, and spent three years of sweet time happily. Over the past three years, the two have also experienced many hardships and tests, but the two young hearts have always been closely together. Changfeng often said: Let Xiaoying be happy every second, which is the goal that Changfeng can strive for in his whole life!"

After Liu Yi finished speaking, he paused for a moment and continued:

"Let us applaud the two of us for their firm love and the two lovers' finally getting married!"

Amid the applause of everyone, Liu Yi said to Xiaoying:

"I told me what I just said, Changfeng personally. How did Xiaoying feel after hearing these words?"

Xiaoying with tears in her eyes smiled and said:

"move!"

Liu Yi said:

"Okay! I suggest that the newcomer finally got a drink for three years of relationship. We all hope to have a drink of wine! Do you think so?"

"That's right!"

The ones who spoke very well were naturally my comrades from all over the world. I smiled, took the wine handed over by the waiter, and gently touched the glass with Xiaoying. Amid the cheers of everyone, we drank this glass of wine.

Liu Yi, who was ready, took the lead in clapping his applause. When the applause stopped for a moment, he continued:

"Changfeng and Xiaoying have been in love for three years. I think he has never expressed his love with so many people, especially so many leaders and comrades. So I suggest that on this special day today, we ask the groom to express his love to the bride in public. Are you okay?"

"good!"

The comrades and guests in the audience agreed. Liu Yi smiled mysteriously, pointed to the long ladder that had been prepared on one side of the hall, and said:

"Let's do this, the stronger Changfeng loves Xiaoying, just climb as high as he climbs! This suggestion is good!"

The hall is open with three floors, so it is very high. The ladder is at least ten meters long. Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard Liu Yi say this. I didn't know that he had this arrangement beforehand, and I smiled and walked towards the ladder without hesitation. Xiaoying, who knew my abilities and face, also stood on the stage with a smile and watched how I deal with it.

I stopped under the ladder, then gently pointed my feet, and rose up from the ground and landed lightly on the top of the ladder. I sat on it easily and looked at Xiaoying with a smile.

Liu Yi said:

"I am worthy of being a special forces soldier! I am agile! But if we say it is tall enough, we have to ask the bride!"

After saying that, he handed the microphone to Xiaoying. Xiaoying smiled and looked at me, pursed her lips and said:

"not enough……"

Everyone burst into laughter. I was already sitting at the top of the ladder. Xiaoying said it was not high enough. Everyone looked at me with interest at what to do. My eyes rolled and I stood up suddenly. I only used the toes of one foot to hit the top of the ladder. But my whole body was steadily. Everyone couldn't help but exclaim when they saw me suddenly making such a dangerous move.

In Xiaoying's slightly panicked gaze, I smiled and shouted:

"Xiaoying! I love you!"

I shouted three times in a row, and the sound was louder than the other time. When I was the last time, I almost shouted at the top of my lungs, and the ladder was shaking. After shouting, I gently jumped down the ladder and walked back to the stage with everyone's thunderous applause. Xiaoying held my hand tightly, her face full of happiness.

Liu Yi said:

"That's great! Everyone applauded the groom's wonderful performance again!"

Then the bride and groom cut the cake together and poured champagne. It is worth mentioning that the beautiful champagne tree was placed next to it. The bride and groom each took a bottle. When we mixed a bottle of red and green champagne in the first layer of the champagne tree, the two wines reacted violently and turned dark blue and fluorescent, which looked extremely dazzling under the stage lighting effect. The fluorescent dark blue wine flowed down layer by layer, and soon the entire champagne tree emitted blue fluorescent, and the whole wedding reached a climax at this time.

Next, the witness Zhong, delivered a speech to us. Although he was wearing casual clothes, he had a natural aura that had been in high positions for a long time. Moreover, most of the people here were soldiers, so they must know the vice president. It was beyond the expectations of many people that I could invite this general to testify for me.

Finally, Liu Yi said:

"Before the banquet, I suggest that the bride and groom bow to each other and thank each other for their unyielding past three years!"

I glanced at Xiaoying affectionately and bowed deeply to her.

Liu Yi continued:

"Please ask the bride and groom to bow to the guests and thank them for coming!"

After we did as we did, Liu Yi continued:

"Finally, please express your gratitude to your parents!"
To be continued...
