Chapter 42 The Wedding Night
On the evening of June 24, Lu Zheng and Iris held a low-key and simple wedding in the Songzhu Hall of Beijing Hotel.
It is simple and low-key, just in terms of the wedding process and the number of guests.
Indeed, it is a very traditional wedding, and it is not a retro tradition. It is similar to the wedding process of Lu Tianhe's generation. It is just an invitation to have a meal in the restaurant.
This made Lu Zheng feel relieved and didn't bother him much. However, before the banquet, he and Iris stood in front of the banquet door to welcome the guests, keeping a smile for a long time, which made his face slightly sour.
And whenever I see Iris's look, Lu Zheng wants to laugh.
In fact, in order to keep up with Lu Zheng's clothing, Aris, wearing a red silk jacket and pants, became more and more imposing. Her dazzling platinum hair was tied up with a beautiful bun behind her head, and the beautiful girl with blond and blue eyes looked more dignified and generous in style with oriental young women.
Today's wedding was low-key, and there were only dozens of guests, but all the attendees were earth-shaking figures, including five party and state leaders who were not treated at the national level on stage and seven deputy state-level people. In terms of military rank, there were three generals, and those from the military came, and the generals were also brilliant.
If there is any accident at this wedding, it can be said that the sky in the Republic collapsed halfway, although most of the guests were retired and semi-retired.
What made Lu Zheng happy was that he finally saw his grandfather and grandfather sitting at a table. I thought that for a long time, they had no time to get along like this.
In my grandfather's opinion, this wedding was also an opportunity for him to meet with his old friends to reminisce about the past, so he called these old friends one by one. Otherwise, such a grand occasion would be difficult to happen. Even the elderly who had a deep heart with their grandfather would send people to send gifts.
Even such a simple wedding gradually made Lu Zheng dizzy, like a puppet being marshaled, mechanically completing repetitive work.
Afterwards, Lu Zheng's impression of the whole wedding was very vague. He only remembered that when he came to Grandpa with Iris, he was toasting at his grandfather's desk, and his grandfather's hearty laughter and his grandfather's comment that won a lot of prizes, "Okay, a match made in heaven."
Of course, Lu Zheng still vaguely remembers the meaningful gazes of some people when they looked at them and Iris. After all, among the red children, the Ming media married a foreign girl, which is fine. From now on, I am afraid that I will be considered an alien.
Paul and Carl were not there, and Mr. Shandrew alone represented the Sandrew family and represented Iris's family to attend the wedding. When he saw the list of guests, only he knew what he felt in his heart.
After taking the car back to the wedding room - a villa in the suburbs of Beijing, Lu Zheng's intention gradually dissipated. After all, they were all elders. Lu Zheng drank a lot of white wine when he toasted. He drank a few more glasses.
I washed my face in the bathroom on the first floor and looked at the villa with red letters everywhere. There was festiveness everywhere. Even the wide and magnificent stairs were scattered with red rose petals on the gorgeous carpet.
This villa was also bought by Iris. In Wushan, Iris also owns a manor. If the couple had not had to fly to Yangon tomorrow, Iris originally proposed the Wushan Manor as a wedding house. But she didn't know where she heard that the political situation in Myanmar is now very chaotic, and the Embassy of the Republic in Myanmar is extremely busy. She and the old man took the initiative to propose that the honeymoon trip could be postponed and then replenished. Lu Zheng will be dismissed tomorrow and she will go to Myanmar with Lu Zheng.
In this way, the old man felt that this grandson-in-law was not very old, but he was very knowledgeable about the general, and he might be a virtuous supporter.
Thinking about it, Lu Zheng could only smile bitterly in his heart.
Outside the bathroom, a tall maid wearing a black and white maid's skirt was waiting for Lu Zheng. When Lu Zheng saw Lu Zheng walk out, he brought a cup of hot tea to sober up. Lu Zheng held the tea cup and looked around, and she kept following Lu Zheng, waiting for Lu Zheng's instructions at any time.
Lu Zheng vaguely remembers her name, Anna, but don’t look at her, she is a beautiful woman with an oriental face. In fact, her grandfather moved overseas. She is a real banana person with an oriental face and a western heart. Originally, she was not very good at Chinese. She was recruited and trained by the Sandru family a few years ago and became a maid around Iris, and then she began to learn and understand everything about this ancient oriental homeland.
Seeing Lu Zheng looking around, Anna explained: "Miss is taking a shower upstairs, Mrs. Amaria and Louise are both upstairs."
Lu Zheng nodded slightly. Louise was born in Macau, with a mixed Chinese and French race. Her father is French and her mother is Chinese. I heard that her mother was her father's lover. Shortly after Louise was born, her father took away all the money and disappeared. It turned out that she was just a French liar. Louise had been growing up in a slum in Macau. She was also in her teens a few years ago. By chance, Mrs. Amaria's friend met her mother who worked as a dealer in a Macau casino and introduced her to the Oriental Maid Training Class organized by Mrs. Amaria, and was selected layer by layer and finally stayed.
At first glance, Louise is a very beautiful Chinese girl, and then you will find the difference between her high nose bridge and sexy deep eye sockets and oriental beauties.
Anna and Louise served in the southern Yunnan manor and the Embassy in Myanmar. This time they returned to Beijing to decorate their wedding house, and only they followed Mrs. Amaria back from Myanmar.
So Lu Zheng still had some impression of them.
Sitting on the sofa, Lu Zheng turned on the TV. After special approval, this villa can be equipped with satellite antennas and can receive overseas channels. Lu Zheng changed these foreign language stations and smiled bitterly. It seemed that after wrapping them with white veil, he became less and less like living in China, and he lived a life that was completely different from the Chinese citizens.
Just as I was bored, footsteps came from the extremely wide spiral staircase, and Iris led downstairs one after another, one behind Mrs. Amariah and Louise.
Iris was still wearing the red oriental bridal satin dress, with her gorgeous and cute platinum hair tied into a bun behind her head. Even what she wore was embroidered slippers and a blond and blue-eyed Chinese bride, so cute that she was beyond words.
Lu Zheng smiled bitterly, always thinking that her cute look now should be used to shoot festive New Year advertisements, which really makes people cute.
Today is the wedding night, but looking at this little bride, Lu Zheng can't bear to feel like he is spending the sacred night with his partner who will hold hands and share honor and disgrace for life.
"Are you tired?" Lu Zheng kept watching Iris walk over and sat in front of him, and the extremely fresh fragrance also drifted into his nose.
Iris shook his head gently.
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Let's play cards, Landlord, will it be?" On the wedding night, he was helpless when he said this, but he couldn't really happen to her. No matter what, her actual age is too young, making people feel guilty.
Iris shook his head again and said, "It's getting late. I'll have to catch a plane tomorrow morning, so let's take a rest."
Lu Zheng felt that his head was a little silly, but Iris was talking about the truth, and he could not sleep. However, Iris was young and when he was growing up, he was the time when he was sleepy the most, so it was difficult for him to stay up late like himself.
"Then, are there any free rooms downstairs?" Lu Zheng turned around and asked Mrs. Amaria.
Before Mrs. Amaria could speak, Aris said in surprise: "You are my husband. You won't sleep with me on your wedding night today? I am used to sleeping alone, but I still have to accommodate you. As a gentleman, your request is too rude."
Lu Zheng's head became even more muddy. When he saw Iris stand up and turn back to the stairs, Mrs. Amaria made a gesture to her to invite her.
Lu Zheng didn't know if these people were ill, so he just made up his mind. You are not afraid, are I still afraid? He followed Mrs. Amaria upstairs.
The wide red carpet of the stairs were paved all the way, and the grand Roman columns were shiny, just like returning to the warlord mansion of the old era.
The second floor master bedroom, the dreamy big red yarn bed, and even the two pillows are heart-shaped, gorgeous and romantic
However, Lu Zheng immediately noticed that the floor was placed next to the big bed and thick cushions. When Mrs. Amaria and others tidied up the big bed and floor again, it could be vaguely seen that the floor was probably a water bed.
After Mrs. Amaria and others left, Iris pointed to the water bed and said, "You sleep here."
Lu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. It was better than sleeping in a bed.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Lu Zheng did not go to take a shower, so he lay on the water bed with his clothes and pulled over the blanket to feel unspeakable. After all, it was summer days, and he had been busy all day with his wedding, and he drank a lot of wine. His sweat stuck to his clothes, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Iris quickly turned off the lights, and the sound of water water flow sounded on the bed. It should be her changing her pajamas. Lu Zheng could only close his eyes and sighed in his heart. Is this called getting married? Think about it, there is no groom as sad as himself in this world?
I don't know how long it happened, I suddenly burst into laughter. Lu Zheng opened his eyes and had already adapted to the darkness of the bedroom. He saw Iris's little head sticking out from the edge of the bed, looking at him curiously.
"Why are you laughing?" Lu Zheng said angrily, a little helpless and even more powerless.
Iris lay on the head of the bed, as if his legs were kicking the bed leisurely, and said proudly: "I told you five years ago that you are mine, now do you believe it?"
"Have you been five years?" Lu Zheng was stunned. In a blink of an eye, he had known Iris for a long time. Then he felt annoyed and said, "I am not a cargo, what is yours, not yours?"
In the darkness, Iris' eyes became brighter, and she whispered: "Of course you are not a cargo, you are my knight, and no one can take it away."
Lu Zheng was stunned. In Aris's whisper, there was a deep affection like fate, just as if he was young and had deep roots in his love.
"You will protect me for the rest of my life, prophet, right?" Iris asked with some anticipation.
Lu Zheng was stunned. Obviously, Iris is the person who knows her best in the world, especially the storms she has caused in the international financial field. She can see clearly. In addition, she is so smart. She should vaguely feel that she seems to have the ability to predict the future. Perhaps, she feels that only she knows in the whole world, how great the husband she has chosen is.
"Iris, I'm not a prophet." Lu Zheng sighed softly and said, "You will be disappointed."
Iris blinked his bright eyes and said softly: "Is the prophet going to lose his magic power and become a mortal? That's fine, let me protect you forever in the future."
Lu Zheng felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart, sour and a little warm. He had never felt this way, and someone would protect himself. Iris became serious, and his powerful aura made you believe that there was nothing in this world that she could not do. She said that she would protect you by your side, and it seemed that she could help you solve all your worries and protect you from any harm.
With her by my side, what else can my husband ask for?
