Chapter 1961 - 1961: Yunyang's Wedding 1
After dinner and some conversation, before saying goodbye, Hu Lan really invited Feng Qingxue to get her hair permed with elaborate styles.
Feng Qingxue smiled gently, "Let's wait until I've taken off this military uniform, I can't even think about it right now."
The military life has strict regulations, including the military district hospital, and she can only wear skirts during non-working hours, let alone jewelry.
Although the cultural troupe is also part of the military, they are performers and take the artistic path, so they can wear skirts and get elaborate hairstyles. However, if you pay attention, you'll notice that once they step onto the stage, they have to wear the performance attire specified by the military, adhering firmly to a solemn and simple road. The way Feng Qingyun dressed upon returning to the country was really inappropriate.
Because Feng Qingyun slapped Commander Li, Political Commissar Liu didn't want her to return to the Capital Cultural Troupe, fearing that if he wasn't aware, Commander Li might cause trouble for her.
No matter what, Commander Li is the leader of a regiment and has significant authority.
So, within three to four days after the two families met, the things Feng Qingyun sent back from abroad arrived one after another. She submitted the award-winning materials, study materials, social materials from the past two years, and the application report she had prepared earlier. After a careful review by Political Commissar Liu and his team, she was approved to rejoin the team, but was immediately transferred to the Capital Orchestra.
As Political Commissar Liu mentioned, after learning that Feng Qingyun was back in the country and had a conflict with Commander Li, several art units were vying to have her, and ultimately, considering that Feng Qingyun's major was vocal music, the Capital Orchestra took the lead.
Once her work was settled, the review of the marriage application proceeded quickly.
Feng Qingyun's political review was already impeccable, and with a new investigation, nothing was found amiss. Li Jiaoyang was also of impeccable background, and the process was swift, with approval granted in just a few days.
The Rong Family and Lu Jiang's parents immediately set their wedding date for September 18th.
September 18th in the solar calendar is August 6th in the lunar calendar. Hu Lan secretly found someone to choose the date, which was particularly auspicious, and it was also a Sunday, so unless unexpected work arose, both adults and children would typically be at rest.
Before the wedding, the bridal gifts prepared by the Rong Family were entrusted to an old leader who brought people to deliver them to the Lu Family by car.
They borrowed a military truck, and when unloading, the dazzling items nearly blinded the onlooking cadre family members.
First was a Phoenix Brand sewing machine, then a Forever Brand ladies' bicycle, relatively light, followed by a twenty-inch imported color TV and a Rolex ladies' watch, ten sets of clothing and shoes for all four seasons, all packed in boxes, along with two thousand yuan, clearly demonstrating the Rong Family elders' high regard for Feng Qingyun.
Someone immediately commented, "The Rong family really splurged for the second one's wedding, you can tell they truly adore the second child. I was there for the eldest child's wedding at the Rong family—none of these things were there! They didn't even manage the three spinning, one sound, just two suits of clothing and a watch, a Flying Pigeon bicycle."
Grandma Ye immediately retorted, "What do you know? The Rong family is compensating the second child."
The person who spoke earlier immediately remembered that Li Jiaoyang was lost by the Rong family and only found after twenty or thirty years. Being in the same circle, they all knew about the Rong family's situation, after all, they searched for many years.
"The things the Rong family prepared are plenty. I wonder what the Lu Family has prepared as a dowry for the bride."
Grandma Ye, knowing the ins and outs, since she helped make the dowry bedding with a few other seasoned women, casually said, "Xiaoyun is capable on her own, and her sister adores her. The dowry definitely won't be less than the bridal gifts. Just wait and see if you don't believe it."
