  In the afternoon of the next day, the plane scheduled by An Feng arrived.

  The itinerary is a bit tight, because there is still a banquet in China. After saying goodbye to my friends in the afternoon, I dragged everyone who went back together to get on the plane. The Gulfstream G650, which can accommodate 20 people, was almost full. Besides their parents, Wu Chao and Wang Le also dropped by to join in the fun.

   First, I flew to Los Angeles, and after the customs stamped the passport book, I took off into the blue sky again.

  The days at the resort made everyone feel good, discussing activities along the way. Dad and Frank were chatting vigorously under Joanna's translation.

   An Feng pulled his mother over and said, "That's right. I was worried about the difficulty of communicating because of the language barrier. I didn't expect my father and father-in-law to be able to talk until now."

  My mother smiled: "It's still in-laws. It's always right to know more, and the old man said that this represents the cultural exchange between the two countries."

   "Since when did you pay attention to these heights?" An Feng asked with a smile.

   "Of course you are relaxed, and you just left the matter to us, but you don't know everyone's troubles." The sister sat down and said dissatisfied.

  An Feng was puzzled: "Huh?"

The elder sister curled her lips and said: "Mom and Dad heard that you and Joanna were successful a few months ago. They were both happy and nervous. They were happy that you found a satisfactory daughter-in-law, but they were nervous about her family background. They thought of Joanna She is a hereditary noble lady. In ancient China, she was either a member of the imperial court or a relative of the emperor! I also learned from various sources that Westerners are very particular about etiquette. It is an old man who is actively studying, they take the time to go to training classes to supplement their knowledge..."

An Feng held his chin and listened. The differences in their family backgrounds do exist. Whether it is Sassen or the earl's father-in-law who has never met, they both represent the wealthy class, while his family is just ordinary people. Cannot intermarry with civilians.

   But that was also ancient times, and it was only in the past. Salted fish can turn around, and hanging silk can also counterattack. There is a saying in China that the rich are still farmers after three generations, while the western aristocrats are more powerful, and may have been passed down for six or seven generations, but the essence is still the same? Turn up your family tree, maybe our ancestors were just a group of croaking monkeys when they ate cooked food and hunted in leather pants...

"It was my fault. I took care of myself and didn't expect everyone." An Feng said apologetically, "But don't worry, those 1% rich people are now in our family too. Be confident in yourself! Thinking of it this way, if necessary, I can use money to kill you, and this will give me the confidence to be a human being."

  My sister returned home in defeat, and it was difficult to get An Feng to speak seriously, but in the final analysis, maybe it was his positive and good attitude that made him bravely pursue Joanna? If you are afraid of everything you do, if you are afraid of wolves and tigers, you will not dare to do this, and you will not want to do that, you are doomed to hang your silk for life.

An Feng, who is not serious on the surface, thought in his heart that this material is rich. With so much money, his family will naturally not live in poverty, but he has to make up for the spiritual aspect. Not everyone can adapt, but at least you must develop self-confidence.

  Depart from the United States on the 4th, and fly back to China for 12 hours. Due to the time difference, the adjusted time is the evening of the 5th. The plane lands in S City, stops temporarily, and leaves the next day. An Feng and his family and friends took the bus back to the local hotel they booked.

  After a dinner, An Feng took Joanna out of the hotel and went to a custom clothing store in the city.

This is a time-honored brand that specializes in high-end traditional dresses for body movements. An Feng has sent their precise body data half a month ago, and specially ordered two cheongsams that she likes for Joanna, as well as two sets of traditional Tang suits of her own. , Live an addiction to traditional culture.

  Joanna originally wanted to hold a traditional oriental wedding banquet, but these years have been washed away by foreign cultures. Now, most people who get married don't wear wedding dresses and suits? The most authentic one has just been held abroad, but it is unnecessary in China, traditional costumes are good!

  Tried on the clothes on the spot, and the high-end tailors naturally don't need to worry about the workmanship. Joanna put on the red embroidered seven-point cheongsam without losing her temperament. Slightly tight, but it can highlight the perfect figure just right.

  Joanna looked at herself in the mirror, then turned to look at An Feng: "Does it look good?"

  An Feng nodded: "Very charming!"

Others also visited City S at night to appreciate the beauty and variety of SH at night. Not to mention domestic friends, they have long been accustomed to the prosperity of the metropolis, and at most they marveled at the brilliant neon lights at night, but foreign father-in-law and mother-in-law But it was an eye-opener. They had never been to the mainland before, and their understanding was superficial. When they were in it, they were overwhelmed by the tall buildings and heavy traffic here.

  Frank sighed: "What a magnificent city, isn't it worse than Los Angeles?"

  Kelly nods: "It's more rural around LA."

The culprit behind this discrepancy is those Western media that specialize in reporting on the bad side of China. The Western media with tinted glasses don't talk about the good side of China, but write the bad ones in capitals and close-ups, hoping that the world will know about it... This aspect says To tell you the truth, it is the same as the TV station "The people of the whole country are happy and happy, and the people of the world are living in dire straits", so don't blame anyone, everyone is in the same boat, and each other.

  The next morning, the plane rushed back to the south and stopped in the city.

  Considering the itinerary and the convenience of relatives and friends, the banquet was held in a hotel in the city, and an uncle from Anfeng was in charge. Anyway, my father gave me a lot of money, so I don't know what it will look like. Take the bus to the place to see, it's not bad, this hotel is often on TV.

  The banquet was held in the afternoon, but people had already arrived in the morning. As soon as An Feng and Joanna appeared, it was customary to be watched for a while. Those seven aunts and eight aunts have long heard that An Feng has married a foreign girl, so they have been nagging since last night until this morning! Everyone said that he has learned a lot, that the kid is capable, and his mother and father are smiling at the praise, and the pride is rising.

  When the real person appeared, everyone would naturally have to watch it, and then they were full of praise.

   In the words of the aunts, it means that she looks beautiful, looks like a lady of everyone, has a natural temperament, and can give birth to babies!

  They came to a conclusion: "Gorgeous but not vulgar, she is definitely a standard lady from a foreign family! An Feng, you got the blessings of eight lifetimes to marry her!"

   An Fenghan is one, and there is such a standard? He translated to Joanna, who didn't understand the regional accent: "Praise you for your good figure, and bless our marriage."

   "Thank you." Joanna said with a smile.

   "Can you still speak Chinese? It's time for your family to burn incense!" they said in surprise.

   Pulling the quilt to watch the beautiful foreign bride escape from the three floors inside and outside, and return to the suite above the hotel to rest. Then take a bath and change clothes, and put on a well-prepared dress. The parents were busy with their children. When An Feng and Joanna, who had changed their clothes, appeared, everyone focused their eyes again.

  China pays attention to a festive marriage, so it is natural to wear a red suit. An Feng wears a red Tang suit and black trousers, and has an elegant demeanor. Joanna is eye-catching in whatever clothes she wears because of her figure. The bright red embroidered phoenix cheongsam is added to the body, a string of pearl necklaces is placed around her neck, her hair is pulled up high, and she is wearing pink lipstick. I feel that there is nothing wrong with bright lipstick, but it is appropriate.

  An Feng looked in admiration at those three aunts and six women who said "beautiful but not vulgar" just now, their eyes are so powerful!

He was also very satisfied with Joanna's look, and he praised the stylist for turning his wife into a traditional noble style, with bright lipstick, dark eye shadow, long eyelashes, and lighter blush... The style is flamboyant and enthusiastic, a little The son is not low-key, but what's the use of being low-key for the bride at this time?

  Frank and Kelly also wore Tang suits and cheongsams, dressed up grandly. I heard that they were very interested in these clothes and bought a few more sets.

  When the father-in-law and mother-in-law saw Joanna dressed up to attend, they couldn't help admiring: "Oh! Look at our daughter! She is so beautiful! Like an angel!"

  An Feng is sweating again, angels are dressed in white, right?

  When my parents saw each other, the smiles on their faces remained undiminished. It's just that when the mother was satisfied, she murmured: "It would be nice if the daughter-in-law was a little shorter."

  An Feng is childish: "I just want to be tall!"

After Joanna put on the high heels, the altitude really put a lot of pressure on the ladies. The friends who came one after another looked up after being amazed at the first glance. They thought she was so tall. An Feng was almost there, and he also revealed deep envy from his words.

  Women, who doesn't want to be tall and leggy, temperamental and sexy?

An Feng's classmates and friends saw him, pulled him aside, and reprimanded him: "You are capable, last time I was a **** girl, this time I changed to a noble model! Tell me quickly, what magic method you used, and give some tips to my buddies, go back It is useful for dealing with women, we still have a bunch of singles!"

  When the newcomers were welcoming guests, Joanna stood at the door, and passers-by couldn't help but take a few extra glances. It's just because the city is not big, it's just an ordinary third-tier city, unlike those in city S and city B, where there are a lot of embassies and consulates, and foreigners can find them casually. It's different here, and there are not a few foreigners in a year.

  Joanna's appearance and shape completely match those beautiful foreign girls on TV. She is blond, tall, and dignified. She is exactly a model in a foreign fashion show! Even the relatives and friends of the newlyweds who got married in the same hotel couldn't help but take a few glances.

Everyone took advantage of the holidays to get married, and the guests came in through the door. When they passed by, everyone's eyes unconsciously fixed on the pair of festive red couples, while ignoring the two couples in wedding dresses and suits. Because there is no comparison in terms of temperament or clothing creativity.

   After watching for a while, the red envelopes were all collected, and Joanna joined An Feng's arm and smiled at the banquet.

  There is no ceremony this time, only a banquet, with more than 20 tables set up, and all familiar or ordinary friends are invited. At the beginning, let's start with a wonderful piece: a video was played on the projector provided by the hotel, which was filmed in Palm Springs, with a grand wedding banquet with Chinese subtitles.

Firstly, the beautiful resort is presented, and then it switches to the grand wedding banquet scene. As the camera moves, a group of foreigners in formal suits are smiling or talking... After the band plays, Joanna, who is dressed in a grand and luxurious With a crown on her head and a necklace around her neck, surrounded by little angels, she walked slowly with her head held high, with a faint smile on her face, showing her confidence.

All the relatives and friends in the audience watched the video attentively, and together with the newcomers and friends in another banquet hall next to it, they also joined in the fun, to appreciate what the majestic western wedding banquet is like, and then compare it with what I plan to do here. I am ashamed that I failed in the ceremony.

After the video was finished, everyone applauded, escaped from the western culture, and returned to the oriental atmosphere. When new couples get married, the custom is that the newcomers first serve tea to their parents, and then continue to meet important relatives and friends. No one let them go , the wine glass must be full, and one sip must be light.

  An Feng was under a lot of pressure. Fortunately, some people focused on his father-in-law. Having a drink with this brown-haired foreigner would also be a source of conversation in the future. He relaxed a lot, and his father-in-law was also very useful at critical moments. Frank, who vowed to win respect at the liquor table, went all out today.

   But looking at the face of my mother-in-law, it's hard to say whether I will kneel on the keyboard tonight...
