Chapter 363: Having the courage to stand up is another matter
It is the first time for Xu Chuan to be a best man.
However, there are not so many details and work in rural areas. Generally speaking, they just follow the convoy to pick up the bride, help the groom solve some obstacles set by the bridesmaids, and hold back the wine at the wedding.
After getting up early and having breakfast, Xu Chuan rushed to Xu Hou's house.
At this point, Xu Hou was already neatly dressed in suits and leather shoes and busy with various things.
Xu Chuan went up to help. As time passed, other friends in the village also rushed over.
Following the motorcade, a group of people headed to the county hotel to pick up the bride.
Although the bride is from Baling, Baling is very big, so after discussion, the bride and her relatives and friends went to a hotel in a nearby county to stay one night in advance to wait for the wedding.
In the hotel, Xu Chuan and the other two best men solved the problems set by the three bridesmaids, then opened the door and rushed in.
The bride was wearing a pure white wedding dress and looked pretty and delicate. She looked at the group of people who came in with a happy smile on her face.
Playing games and launching challenges, after finding the bride's dress shoes from the lap of another bridesmaid, Xu Hou hugged his world and boarded the wedding car, and the group fought back to Xujiacun through another road.
In his hometown, there is a custom when picking up a bride that you don’t take the same road when you go and when you come back. This is called not turning back, which means that the newlyweds will live happily and forward together.
After returning to Xujiacun, the wedding ceremony came to an end for the time being, and then came the reception of guests.
Xu Chuan originally wanted to go up and help, but Xu Hou's parents, relatives and friends were completely adequate, so he simply found a corner in the living room on the second floor to sit down and rest for a while.
Compared with the lively first floor, the second floor is where the bride's family and friends are received, and the number of people is smaller.
Xu Chuan sat in the corner, cracking melon seeds and chatting with another groomsman.
This was a classmate of Xu Hou's whom he met in college. He came here specially from out of town today, but he didn't seem to recognize Xu Chuan's identity. He just thought he was Xu Hou's boy from the same village.
Although the name Xuchuan is very famous in China, there is not only one person with this name in the country. Who would have thought that he would meet that elder in a mountainous valley like Xujiacun.
At this moment, the door of the room where the bride and the bridesmaids were temporarily staying opened, and the two bridesmaids changed out of their bridesmaid dresses and came out.
"Excuse me, are you Academician Xu Chuanxu?"
A girl with long, straight black hair, wearing an off-white long coat and light gray wide-leg pants, who looked quite fresh and elegant, walked up to Xu Chuan and asked softly.
Hearing the voice, Xu Chuan turned his head, smiled, nodded and replied, "It's me."
After confirming the answer, another bridesmaid hugged her friend's arm and exclaimed with joy: "Qingqing, let me just say I admitted it right! It's really the God of Sichuan! Today we saw the real person!"
Immediately, she put aside her friend's arm, came closer, and asked excitedly: "Sichuan...Sichuan God, can I add you as a prestigious friend?"
Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Okay."
After she and this bridesmaid became friends, another bridesmaid named Qingqing came up and said with some surprise and excitement: "It's incredible, I didn't expect to meet you here today."
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "This is my hometown. I grew up with Xu Hou. I just came back for the New Year and caught up with his wedding, so I was roped in to be the best man."
On the side, the other best man was a little confused at the moment. He really didn't recognize that the person who was picking up the bride and running away while playing games was the famous academician Xu in China.
Thinking that he had just come all the way and boasted so much in front of this guy, his face suddenly turned red.
Find a crack in the ground and let him crawl into it!
I can dig out three bedrooms and one living room with my toes.
After recognizing Xu Chuan's identity and giving each other a boost of authority, the atmosphere became a lot colder. It was not as relaxed as when they were joking and joking together when they were getting married.
Even the old man next to me who had been bragging was too embarrassed to brag anymore.
After all, the difference in status between them was so great that everyone who was originally quite relaxed now became a little cautious.
But the curious looks from the bridesmaids never stopped.
Xu Chuan shook his head slightly and didn't pay too much attention.
As people grow up, they always lose a lot of things.
He is also included.
...
Time passed little by little, and soon the auspicious time arrived.
The wedding process began. Although the wedding was held in Xujiacun, there were still professional wedding officiants and etiquette personnel, and even arrangements were made for the wedding children to send flowers and rings.
After Xu Hou and the bride walked onto the stage, the staff from the professional wedding officiating team invited from outside walked over from the side of the festive red greenhouse and found Xu Chuan.
"Well, Academician Xu, today is the wedding of your little boy, Mr. Xu Hou. Would you like to go up and say a few words of blessing on behalf of my little boy and the groomsmen?"
Compared to the bridesmaids and others who were unaware, the professional wedding officiating team knew Xu Chuan's identity.
It may be that Xu Hou has confessed that he is afraid that the team hosting the wedding will rashly make some tricks or invite the groomsmen group to play some games that are not very good in nature but will enliven the atmosphere.
After all, this kind of thing is quite common in rural weddings, such as the best man and bridesmaid holding balloons, biting apples together, passing playing cards, etc.
These games are nothing to put at a rural wedding, but Xu Chuan's status is rather special, and it is hard to imagine that such a top expert would participate in such a game.
Hearing the staff's invitation, Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment: "I'm not prepared. Isn't it a bit too hasty to go up here?"
The staff smiled and said: "Just say a few words and send a blessing. Of course, if you are really not ready, we can also cancel this link."
Xu Chuan thought for a while and said, "Then go up and say a few words."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Fa Xiao gets married, as his childhood friend and best man, it is necessary for him to support the scene no matter what. It’s just that this scene is supported, so don’t steal the limelight when the time comes.
After all, he is not the protagonist today.
.......
Not far away, on the wedding stage, the host received a positive reply and continued to host the wedding.
"Now, we invite our groom's childhood friend, world-renowned scholar and national academician Professor Xu Chuan, to represent the groom's close friends and the best man group to send the most sincere blessings to today's newlyweds! Please welcome everyone with the warmest applause!"
There was applause at the wedding venue.
For the guests attending the wedding today, most of them are relatives and friends of Xujiacun or Xu Hou's family. They all know or have heard that there is a great professor and scientist in Xujiacun.
After hearing the name from the host's mouth, these people looked towards the stage with excitement, searching for the legendary scientist with their eyes.
Others who didn't quite understand this were stunned when they heard the host's words.
Many people have heard of the name Xu Chuan, even in rural areas. Maybe they don't know about those scientific problems, but the Nobel Prize, an international award that almost everyone knows, is basically known to everyone present.
The name Xu Chuan has repeatedly appeared on Xinwen Network and TV.
So even if these people have never met or recognized each other, they have heard of the name. Compared with the familiar people in front of them, they searched the entire wedding venue with more expectant eyes.
After all, it is an honor for them to meet a person of this level.
...
Upon hearing the host's invitation, Xu Chuan stood up from the groomsmen group and walked onto the stage. He stood next to Xu Hou and looked at the many guests in the audience.
As a scholar who has hosted countless lectures and even large-scale international conferences, it is impossible to have stage fright in such situations.
Calmly taking the microphone from the host's hand, Xu Chuan looked at Fa Xiao who was full of expectation, then at the bride who was full of peach blossoms, and slowly said:
"Two surnames are united in marriage, and they make a contract together. They will have a good relationship forever, and the couple will have the same name. Look at the red plum blossoms today, and it will be a good home. I predict that the melons will be abundant in the next year, and the children will be prosperous. I would like to write this promise to Hong Jian.
, so that the Red Leaf Alliance can be recorded clearly."
"I am happy that today the ceremony has just begun. The red ropes are tied together, and the pearls are in perfect harmony. I predict that we will be together forever in the future, and the laurels will be fragrant and the orchid will be fragrant."
"From now on, we have established a good marriage, and we have become a couple. The red rope has been tied early, and the white heads will be together forever. The flowers are beautiful, the moon is full, and the flowers are beautiful. They will swim in the sea and the rocks will be broken. They are the lovers and have made an alliance beforehand. I solemnly make this agreement!"
"The etiquette is the same as the palm of the hand, the two surnames are combined to create a good marriage, the poem is about IKEA, and the peace and tranquility of a hundred years are guaranteed! This is the proof!"
For Xu Chuan, this is not the first time he has spoken on stage.
But this was the first time that he stood at someone else's wedding and sent blessings as the best man and the youngest.
On a whim, he couldn't think of a perfect blessing.
After all, he has been a single person in his two lives. He really doesn't know how to say those dog-food words.
However, just now in the audience, he had an idea and thought of some wedding ceremony speeches from the Republic of China that he had read before, and read them out on the stage.
Using the romance of the last century to send blessings to today's newlyweds is probably the most beautiful thing.
.......
Off the stage, the three bridesmaids in the bridesmaid group were all staring at the figure on the stage.
The bridesmaid who was the first to approach Xu Chuan for prestige reached out and poked her best friend, and whispered: "Qingqing, I heard that Academician Xu doesn't have a girlfriend yet, do you want to give it a try?"
Su Muqing stared at the stage without speaking. After a while, she silently shook her head and said, "It's impossible, the gap is too big."
To be honest, what girl wouldn't like such an outstanding boy?
But how could there be a lack of outstanding girls around a person of his level? It's one thing to like her, but it's another thing to have the courage to stand up and pursue her.
At least, she doesn't have the courage.
