At 4:27 PM, Xiao Gong completed the traditional ceremony with the bride in the new house according to the customs of his hometown and then rode in the wedding car to the Sailor Club.
The couple went upstairs to greet Secretary Miao, Director Zeng, and other leaders and elders. Then, surrounded by Xiao Yu, Guo Weitao, Chen Jian, and other colleagues and comrades, they returned to the main hall on the first floor to prepare for the guests.
Wu Heng, dressed in a sharp suit with a flower pinned to his chest, served as the best man.
Wu Heng's fiancée was also meticulously dressed today, acting as the bridesmaid.
Xiao Gong's cousin and his wife, as well as the bride's cousin and his wife, sat behind a long table covered in red velvet, acting as the "accountants," responsible for collecting gift money from the groom's and bride's relatives, respectively. They recorded how much each guest contributed so that Xiao Gong could reciprocate in the future.
