Chapter 21 Captain Huo’s childhood
The sky had just broken, the morning light had first appeared, and with the sound of a cockcrow, the sleeping Zhuifeng Island was completely awakened.
Xia Mi was so nervous that he couldn't sleep well all night, and would wake up whenever there was any movement.
She opened her eyes and faced the ceiling, her eyes filled with anticipation for today.
Xia Mi lifted up the quilt and got out of bed to wash up.
She bought some cosmetics at the space mall last night and spent 120.
Women spend money on cosmetics and grooming themselves without batting an eye.
Xia Mi also hesitated when buying it. Then she thought about it. Due to the constraints of the times, she couldn't do many things during her first wedding. As for makeup, she still had the conditions to meet it.
The original owner himself was well pampered, and his facial features did not need much modification, and he was beautiful and delicate enough. When he smiled, his lips were red and his teeth were white.
Xia Mi put on her makeup, changed into her wedding clothes, and styled her hair. She had to do all these things by herself, unlike those in later generations who would do everything.
She didn't know how to put her hair in a bun, so she could only braid her hair into a side braid. She took out a large beaded flower from her bag and pinned it to her ear.
Remove the remaining pearls from the beaded flower, use a clip to pass through the beads, and secure them to the braid.
"Bride, have you packed up?"
Jiang Shengmei's bright voice sounded outside the wall, followed by booing.
"Don't wake up yet. You can't sleep in on such an important day!"
"Liu Cailan, your emperor is not anxious about the eunuchs. The groom is the one who is anxious in the end. What are you worried about?"
Xia Mi opened the door amidst the laughter and laughter of everyone, "Sisters-in-law, come in and sit down."
The voices of the people who had been lively just now suddenly stopped, and four or five people looked at Xia Mi without saying a word.
The wedding dress she is wearing is a tailored suit, short, reaching just below the waist, double-breasted with black buttons, and the style is somewhat like Xiaoxiangfeng.
There was still a lot of fabric when making it, so Jiang Shengmei simply made a straight skirt.
The red color doesn't look gaudy when worn on Xia Mi. Instead, it makes her skin fairer and brighter.
Xia Mi is 1.65 meters tall and wears low-heeled leather shoes. She has a tall figure. The style of her clothes outlines her body curves, making people jealous just by looking at her.
At this moment, Xia Mi was like a walking rose, extremely delicate and beautiful.
Liu Cailan covered her mouth and hurriedly asked others, "Is this still Xia Mi? Camp Commander Huo changed his wife overnight?"
These words made several people laugh, and countless compliments came to Xia Mi, so many that they almost drowned her.
Anyone who has tasted Xia Mi's wedding wine will never say a word about Xia Mi's superiority to Huo Jingchen from then on.
"Xia Mi, you look great in this outfit. You are the most beautiful bride I have ever seen." Jiang Shengmei smiled, her eyes full of surprise and envy.
"People rely on clothes, but sister-in-law Shengmei's craftsmanship is better."
Others couldn't stand it any longer, and they all clamored to ask Jiang Shengmei to make custom-made clothes, and the deserted courtyard suddenly became lively.
The custom of Zhui Feng Island is to say goodbye to parents before having a meal.
Their parents were not around either, so this step was skipped.
At ten o'clock, the sound of firecrackers sounded, and a line of white smoke appeared at the door. It quickly blew away with the wind, and a faint smell of gunpowder filled the air.
The children rushed into the yard and went to the house to grab candies and eat them, shouting that the groom was here!
Huo Jingchen is in navy formal attire, wearing a large-brimmed hat with a white top and black brim. There are two bright red touches on both sides of the collar, which are different from the red fireworks pinned to his left chest.
The man entered the door, his eyes like bright stars, and his gaze fell directly on her.
The moment he saw Xia Mi, everything around him was eclipsed by her dazzling brilliance.
Before Huo Jingchen had time to take a closer look, the people next to him started making noises.
"Captain Huo, stop watching it now. You will have to watch it for the rest of your life. It will be annoying even just looking at the quarrels in the future."
"That's right, such a beautiful bride, we have to take a few more looks at her."
Huo Jingchen calmly stood in front of him, blocking most people's view, which made people dissatisfied.
He stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go and eat." This made everyone in the room laugh. They all laughed at the fact that Huo Jingchen looked like a veteran, but he didn't expect that he was actually a dumb kid who couldn't say anything nice.
"This is usually a daughter-in-law. I will take good care of you. No matter what happens, we will be a family from now on."
"Yes, Commander Huo, if you just go to dinner, you will ruin the good atmosphere!"
Xia Mi also laughed. She put her hand on the man's palm and responded to him, "I haven't had breakfast. I'm really hungry."
Under the cheers of the people around them, Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen went out side by side.
Meanwhile, Chasing the Wind Pier.
Jing Xiaoran looked at the board with fear. Below was the bottomless sea water. This scene scared her to the point where her calves became weak.
The people on the dock couldn't stand it anymore and helped her to the dock.
The discomfort of seasickness had not yet subsided. She walked to the side, squatted and vomited, and shed tears in discomfort.
Jing Xiaoran felt aggrieved in her heart. This was her first time traveling alone.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
I visited two train stations and took a train for two days and one night before arriving. When I arrived, a typhoon hit Zhuifeng Island and the ships were suspended.
She waited for a day before getting on the boat to Zhui Feng Island.
For Jing Xiaoran, the belief that supports all fear and discomfort is Huo Jingchen.
She took out her silk scarf and wiped her mouth, looking at the island where her sweetheart had been all these years, her brows furrowed.
She must persuade Brother Jingchen to go back. It would be uncomfortable to think about living on an island like this.
Just when Jing Xiaoran was looking forward to the good days after persuading Huo Jingchen to leave the island, a word from someone next to her shattered her fantasy.
"I heard that my new sister-in-law is as beautiful as a fairy. Camp Commander Huo is very lucky."
"Really? After the changing of the guard, I must go to the cafeteria and take a closer look. Why hasn't Wang Zhiqiang come yet? Is this brat deliberately delaying time?"
Another person laughed, "What are you in a hurry for? It's not because you are marrying a wife."
Jing Xiaoran suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, or that there were other people named Huo on the island?
"Comrade, who is Camp Commander Huo in your mouth?" Jing Xiaoran looked at the two of them nervously with an ugly face.
"Lesbian, what you are asking is that our Camp Commander Huo is our Camp Commander Huo."
Jing Xiaoran was concerned and confused, so she quickly changed her words, "Is your Battalion Commander Huo's name Huo Jingchen?"
The two of them nodded together, mistakenly thinking that Jing Xiaoran was Huo Jingchen's relative, and took the initiative to show their kindness.
"Comrade, are you here specially to celebrate our battalion commander's wedding? I can take you there!"
One of the sailors hurriedly expressed that he wanted to take this opportunity to see the bride.
After getting the answer, Jing Xiaoran still felt a little lucky in his heart, maybe there would be someone with the same name.
Jing Xiaoran couldn't wait to have someone take her for verification.
Those who had the excuse quickly led Jing Xiaoran to the army canteen. Along the way, the two of them had their own concerns and walked in a hurry.
There were three tables in total, and half of the troops were there.
The cafeteria was very lively. Someone had arranged the venue the night before. Double Happiness stickers were posted on the doors and windows of the cafeteria, which was filled with joy.
Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen finished their speeches. Dinner had already started and it was time for toasts.
"Report——"
A sudden report attracted everyone's attention.
"Captain Huo, your relatives are here and they say they are having a special wedding banquet to congratulate you!"
I didn’t write it clearly before, but Huo Jingchen and Jing Xiaoran are five years apart!
