The Liu Family Master stood at the Hebei City Gate with thousands of family members, smiling as they greeted the approaching bridal convoy.
The city was covered in red, festooned with lanterns to celebrate this moment.
As the convoy stopped, Liu An dismounted, took a few steps forward, knelt before the Liu Family Master: "Greetings, Father. Your son has successfully returned with the bride!"
"Good, good, good, you are the groom today, make sure to show your best!" The Liu Family Master patted Liu An's shoulder, then helped him up with a smile.
Afterward, the wedding ceremony commenced.

Guests filled the seats, drinking wine and feasting.
"First bow to Heaven and Earth!"
"Second bow to the parents!"
