Chapter 979 Chapter 988, Be serious! We are getting married!
The long-awaited wedding is finally about to begin~
After the Dharma drum sounded, all the relatives had entered the main hall, while the newlyweds were waiting outside the hall. They had to go through the ritual of dispersing wine and water, and then the announcement of the beginning of the wedding ceremony, etc. In short, the newlyweds would not enter until the ritual music sounded.
While waiting outside, Naoki Nagayama was bored and felt like he was being punished to stand in class. Looking at Akina who was quietly wearing a white wedding dress, he wanted to tease her:
"Akina, what time did you get up today?"
"."
Mingcai didn't say anything. She was so nervous.
"What did you have for breakfast? That hotel restaurant is very good."
"."
Big Brother! You're getting married! Why are you still asking what to eat in the morning?!
"Huh? Why isn't Akina talking?"
Seeing that Akina next to him didn't respond, Naoki Nagayama lowered his head and looked at Akina hidden in the corner in a mean way, and got a nice roll of the eyes in return.
"Naoki-san, be serious, we're getting married!! We're going in soon!!"
Mingcai whispered, her face tense!
"Why so serious?"
Naoki Nagayama squinted his eyes and made a face, just like when he was in school and teased a female classmate who was always serious, he had to make her show other expressions!
"Pfft, cough, cough~"
Akina's defense was broken and she couldn't help laughing, then she quickly coughed tactically to adjust herself.
"In such a solemn occasion, Naoki-san, please stop being funny!!"
"It's such a happy moment, Akina, don't have such a stern face~"
Naoki Nagayama gently poked Akina's angry cheek.
"It will get stuck~"
"Naoki-mulberry"
Mingcai glanced at her husband with hatred, and felt her teeth itching, wishing she could take a bite.
"Akina should change her tone! It's better to call me dear now!" Nagayama Naoki insisted. He glanced at Akina's waist which was about the same as before. It was obvious that she was using the white wedding dress to cover her belly. "Or you can call me dad!"
But with Jiaoyin, you can’t make big movements, otherwise it will be bad if it gets crooked, or you will definitely step on it!!!
"Naoki-san~~~"
"That's the wrong name!" Naoki Nagayama teased his newlywed wife with a smile.
Mingcai finally stomped her feet helplessly.
How could Naoki Nagayama be so out of tune on the biggest day of his life?!
Just when Naoki Nagayama was about to speak, the ceremonial music in the main hall sounded, and the monk in charge of guiding came out and led the two people inside separately.
Under the guidance of the monks, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori slowly walked into the main hall from both sides. The solemn Buddha sat in front of them, looking at the newlyweds with a gentle expression.
Naoki Nagayama, wearing a black hakama, and Akina, wearing a white wedding dress, stood together. One was black and the other was white, but they were inexplicably harmonious.
The relatives on both sides were looking at the perfect couple. The father, Ken Nagayama, had excitement in his eyes and clenched his hands tightly, which the mother beside him noticed and patted his arm gently.
On the other side, Chieko's mother's family was even larger. She was so moved that she wiped her eyes with a handkerchief. The other brothers and sisters who looked at her also looked at her with gratification.
After paying respect to the Buddha, the abbot in a monk's robe entered the hall. After a prayer, he held a "paper pendant" in front of the two people and waved it back and forth while chanting. This was to call back the souls of the deceased ancestors to witness the wedding.
Hmm. It looks a bit like a spirit-calling banner.
After inviting the ancestors, the following procedures are fixed. The abbot leads the newlyweds to burn incense, and then gives them some admonitions, mostly about respecting and loving each other, getting married and having children, etc., and also touches the forehead with clean water.
Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori knelt on the cushions in front of the Buddha, listening to the host mumbling something in front of them, and for some reason they were a little distracted.
The image of the first time they met came to my mind: the broken singer I saw on Bilibili in my previous life and the round-faced drinking girl in front of me. The two images mixed together gave me a shocking feeling.
I also recalled the surprise I felt when I saw Akina wearing a yukata during the cherry blossom viewing carnival during the cherry blossom season.

Then, there was a chance encounter abroad, and then a chance encounter at a temple fair.
The joy of confessing love beside the lotus, the warmth of talking on the phone late at night, the happiness of traveling together in Europe.
The scenes of their relationship played out in Nagayama Naoki's mind like a revolving lantern. He didn't know when it started, but Akina Nakamori was the only one in Nagayama Naoki's life! !
The abbot who was sitting cross-legged in front of the two of them was reciting scriptures slowly, and the wooden hammer hitting the wooden fish made a rhythmic sound, like the thumping of a drum set. Naoki Naoki's heartbeat began to speed up, as if they were beating the beat together.
The chanting sound in my ears seemed to have turned into the impressive female voice of Izumi Sakai:
"
DAN DAN心（こころ）Charm（ひ）かれてく
(Gradually attracted to you)
その死（まぶ）しい笑（え）色（がお）に
(Blinded by your dazzling smile)"
DAN DAN心（こころ）Charm（ひ）かれてく
(Gradually attracted to you)
自（じ）分（ぶん）でも不（ふ）思（し）义（ぎ）なんだけど
(Although I also find it incredible)
(なに)かあると一(す)风(ぐ)に
(Once something happens)
君（きみ）に电（でん）说（わ）したくなる
(Always want to call you first)
"
"DAN DAN 心魅かれてく (gradually attracted to you)". This song suddenly appeared in Naoki Nagayama's mind.
The cheerful melody and affectionate lyrics always reminded me of the beginning of Dragon Ball when I heard it before. I thought it was Bulma's love song for Goku.
Obviously Bulma was the one who knew Goku first, so why did she lose to Chi-Chi later?!
All kinds of strange thoughts popped up in Naoki Nagayama's mind.
If you measure Naoki Nagayama's brain waves at this time, they will definitely be a mess, as if they exploded!
His sleeve was tugged, bringing Naoki Nagayama back to his senses.
It was obvious that Naoki Nagayama was distracted just now, and Akina next to him pulled his sleeve to remind him!
When I looked up, Akina, who was wearing Kakugakure, opened her eyes wide with an expression of disbelief. Is it really possible that someone would be distracted at their own wedding? !
Looking back forward, the presiding monk has asked the monk to bring over a wooden box, which contains two very delicate prayer beads (longevity beads). Now is the stage of giving out the longevity beads!
"Thank you."
Naoki Nagayama picked up his own and put his hands together to express his gratitude to the host. Akina next to him also put her hands together and bowed.
The abbot nodded and continued the ceremony.
The monk once again presented the small wooden box, which contained two wedding rings. They were not pigeon egg-shaped, but ordinary gold rings. They were to be worn frequently in the future, and were only a ceremony to signify the marriage contract.
Of course, the pink diamond ring that goes with the sapphire engagement ring has also been purchased, but it will not be worn on this occasion.
After exchanging rings, we had to drink the vow wine. The drink was just ordinary sake, nothing special.
The relatives nearby also had to drink as a witness. It seemed like a Japanese tradition that people had to drink when signing any contract.
After drinking, they recited the wedding vows, which basically said, "Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori are getting married today, and will love and respect each other until they grow old together."
Naoki Nagayama and Akina held the oath together and recited it to the abbot and Buddha at the same time. Then, under the guidance of the abbot, they addressed the Buddha and the souls of their ancestors!
A traditional Buddhist wedding is now coming to an end.
The abbot then recited some blessing scriptures, but these were minor details. After the ritual music in the main hall sounded again, the abbot left the stage. The remaining Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori spoke to the relatives present as a couple.
"Grandfather." Naoki Nagayama brought Akina to Nagayama Hayato and introduced him, "This is Akina, your granddaughter-in-law."
Due to the sensitivity of her status, it was the first time that Akina Nakamori met her grandfather, so she quickly bowed and greeted him;
"Grandfather, nice to meet you. I'm Akina Nakamori."
"It's Nagayama Akina," Naoki Nagayama reminded quietly.
"Ah, I'm Nagayama Akina." Even with the thick foundation, Nagayama Naoki could see Akina's face was blushing~
"Well, you are all very good!" Grandfather Nagayama Hayato said to Akina with a satisfied smile on his face, "As for the meeting gift, I will give it to you later. However, due to some reasons, I will not attend the wedding banquet later. You should have fun~"
"Hey, thanks grandpa."
"Haha, go meet your parents-in-law."
The next step was to visit other relatives. The relatives of the two families also started to communicate with each other at this time. Due to the cultural tradition of Japan, the relatives of the husband's family and the wife's family hardly contact each other. This may be one of the few times of communication, so it seemed quite lively.
The Nagayama family is not very prosperous, but the Nakamori family is very prosperous, and the younger generation has no generation gap, so the communication is very lively. The eldest brother Aoki and the eldest brother Feng chat with Akina's brothers, and Tsuruko, who has been familiar with Akina for a long time, is chatting happily with Akina's sisters~
However, the previous generation was not so good. Akina's father, Akio Nakamori, and Naoki Nagayama's father, Ken Nagayama, were just polite and courteous. They didn't dare to talk to their uncle Nagayama Kumahara at all and seemed very restrained.
Chieko Nakamori and Nanako Nagayama were chatting leisurely. The children of the two families, Ye Cao, Zhao Zhao, and Xiao Ai, were also playing together.
Until the end, at the reminder of the monk, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori left the main hall, and the entire wedding ceremony was finally over!
In the side hall, Akina took Kakuzakushi down and quickly called Naoki Nagayama next to her:
"Naoki-san, come and help me unfasten this belt."
".Eh?" Naoki Nagayama was "horrified" instantly, "Akina. is in the temple! This is not good!"
"What?!" Akina reacted immediately and punched her husband's arm a few times in shame and anger, "I asked you to help me loosen it!"
"So that's how it is! I was shocked~"
Naoki Nagayama then smiled and helped Akina loosen the Shiromuku belt. Akina's belly was already visible. In the previous ceremony, in order not to show any abnormality, the belt was made very tight.
"Whoo~~~"
As soon as the belt loosened, Akina breathed out easily. During the ceremony just now, she had to keep breathing slowly, which was even more tiring than dancing ballet!
After relaxing, Akina immediately took revenge on her "hateful" husband, pinching her soft flesh while accusing him:
"I told you to be funny before the wedding! You were distracted in the middle of the wedding?! You were so careless just now!"
“Ahhhhh~ Da-mee-da-mee!”
Naoki Nagayama smiled and resisted Akina's attack. The two laughed and joked for a while, and then Naoki Nagayama explained the reason to her.
"Naoki-san, did you just have another flash of inspiration and compose a song?" Akina looked at Nagayama Naoki in surprise.
"Yeah. When you're in the right mood, you'll have more inspiration." Naoki Nagayama nodded and said, "This is my first time attending a wedding, so I'm naturally a little excited. I did it to relieve my nervousness!"
"."
It seems very reasonable.
Although I am very curious about what song Naoki Nagayama has composed, I naturally cannot let him write it now. They both have other things to do!
"So now, shall we go take a picture?" Akina asked.
"Well, wait for notification from the wedding company. They have a photographer!"
Naoki Nagayama opened the door of the side hall and looked outside. They saw their relatives already preparing in the square to take a family photo.
After taking the photos, they will go to the hotel to attend the wedding banquet, while Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori will stay for a while. They will take wedding photos here wearing white wedding gowns!
Only then did I go to the hotel to change into a new dress and announce my marriage to my friends. The wedding banquet was in the afternoon anyway, so it wouldn't delay anything.
Kotaro Ohara, who is now a monk, was hiding nervously in a corner.
He originally wanted to take pictures of their wedding ceremony, but the atmosphere in the main hall was so solemn and there were so many eyes, so he could only take a few pictures through the gap in the window.
He had deliberately tampered with this window recently, otherwise it would have been closed!
In addition, he had already taken some photos of Naoki Nagayama and Akina entering the temple when he picked up the bride. This should have been enough, but he still wanted to take more!
If sacrificing his beautiful hair to transform into Guangzhi was the only result, Kotaro Ohara would not be satisfied!
Seeing that the photo of the newlyweds and their relatives had been taken, the relatives began to leave, especially the younger brothers around the temple also began to disperse. Kotaro Obara felt that his chance had finally come!
He hid behind a remote pillar, pretending to hold a broom and dustpan, using his loose sleeves to cover the high-definition camera, which could not focus, so he could only take pictures by feel.
He wants to take some more photos while they are taking wedding photos!!!
Even one is good!
"Guangzhi. Guangzhi!" At this moment, a monk came over and called his Buddhist name, which made Kotaro Ohara tremble all over. He quickly hid his camera and said, "I'm here. What's wrong?"
"What are you doing here? Ah, sweeping the floor. Not for the moment!" The monk in charge of reception came over, grabbed him and walked towards the front. "I remember you said before that you were a cameraman, right?"
"!!!" Kotaro Obara broke out in a cold sweat instantly!
"The wedding company's videographer just fell down accidentally, and his hands are unstable, so he needs a helper." The monk in charge of reception continued, "So he thought of you."
"Me?" Ohara Kotaro was a little reluctant. He wanted to take a secret photo. "But I'm a monk! I've become a monk."
The monk in charge of reception looked over and said earnestly:
"Guangzhi, the donor of the wedding company, has donated a lot of incense oil to the temple. You are just helping to take a few photos now. It is not against the precepts. What's wrong with that?!"
"The Buddha needs incense and offerings, and we monks also need to eat vegetarian food. Don't you agree, Guangzhi?"
"."
As he was talking, Kotaro Ohara had been pulled to the front of the square, where Naoki Nagayama, Akina Nakamori and three others were waiting.
"That's him! He has some photography skills!" said the monk in charge of reception.
"Okay, Master, thank you for your help~" The cameraman from the wedding company covered his arm and nodded.
After negotiating with the photographer of the wedding company, Kotaro Obara was given a reflector in his hand and was given the important task of lighting!
".?"
Kotaro Obara looked at the reflector in his hand and the smug-looking monk, and was speechless. Is this worthy of being operated by a professional cameraman?
The monk who was in charge of reception must have seen that he had the least experience and ordered him to do hard labor at will! !
How could a professional wedding company hand over the camera to someone else? !
Almost everyone in the photography team can take pictures. Even if the main cameraman is injured, others can take over. It’s just one less person!!
So Kotaro Ohara held the reflector with a helpless look on his face, lighting the two people under the direction of the photographer.
Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori naturally did not recognize the monk, they just greeted him politely and started posing for photos.
The couple you want to photograph is right in front of you, but you can’t take out the camera from your sleeve pocket.
This is simply murderous and heartbreaking!!!
The bitterness in the corners of my eyes is about to overflow!
