Chapter 977 Family Wedding Traditions and Cultural Customs

Zion looked at Wade and Hamza speechlessly and asked, "What about me?"

Wade was taken aback and exclaimed dramatically, "No way, bro! You just realized it? Your previous surgery was in vain! You went under the knife for nothing!"

Zion: "..."

Who said he just realized it? He knew everyone had ordered formal dresses, and he is currently wearing a custom-made one.

All the clothes were white.

But Wade and Susie, older brother and Lucy, then who is he with?

Alana also dressed up and went out. Seeing Zion lost in thought, she held his hand and said, "Let's go, you're coming with Grandma."

Zion looked up, slightly dazed, and quickly tightly held Alana's hand.

Actually, this is quite good...

"Grandma, both my sister and I are a pair, and I'm the only one left alone. Am I unnecessary?" Zion, not knowing what got into him, asked in a melodramatic tone.

After asking, his face turned red, and he wished he could give himself a big slap. He felt a chill running down his spine.

Alana looked at him and said with a smile, "How could it be unnecessary? The wedding procession requires an odd number. Look, your uncles, your father, and your elder uncle, a total of eight adults, so we need Cielo to make it an odd number."

"Your two sisters and your brother and your younger brother, they also need one more person to make an odd number. So you are very important, not at all redundant."

Zion: "..."

Damn it!

He asked too many questions, turns out he was just trying to fit in.

"Why do we have to make it an odd number?" Zion asked curiously.

Alana said, "When the groom goes to pick up the bride, it is in the singular form, but when he brings the bride back, it is exactly in the plural form, which means good things come in pairs, in pairs."

Zion realized, oh, there is such a saying.

"No...," Zion suddenly stopped. "There are nine adults and five children, making a total of fourteen people. That's an even number... So, I am still unnecessary!"

Zion didn't want to leave, he decided to stay at home and wait.

On a joyous day, everything should still be auspicious and prosperous.

How could Alana bear to let him wait at home alone, she said, "It's okay, usually only adults go in, not children."

Only the strict ones would count the children in. Alana thought it was fine anyway, as her daughter-in-law wasn't a normal person.

A child went to join in the numbers, and by chance, he happened to join in the belly of his daughter-in-law... Adding them up, it turned out to be an even number.

Children pair up with children, and adults pair up with adults. It's great!

"Go!" Alana walked to the door and let go of Zion's hand. "Grandpa and Grandma want some privacy, your grandfather and I will be waiting for you to come back home."

Zion: "Oh..."

If we put it this way, it seems like he was unnecessary...

So Zion, from the moment he left the house, kept pondering over this question...

Susie and her older siblings happily rushed out.

Just as she walked out of the gate, Susie suddenly froze.

All eight uncles stood at the door, dressed in identical black suits, each holding a red rose in their hands.

Martin had a red rose pinned on his shirt pocket, while David held it in his hand obediently.

Paul turned the rose around and smiled warmly, "To welcome our little princess, has this humble servant arrived late?"

He clumsily imitated the popular trends on TikTok, making himself laugh and with a smile in his eyes.

Jonathan held the rose in his hand and placed it behind his back. He slightly bent over and made a gesture of invitation with his other hand.

"Two little princesses, let's go!"

Huck: "Me, me, me! I am the knight, okay? I used to do this job - at least somewhat related!"

Judah: "Are you childish or not? Move aside, let me do it."

Ryan smiled gently and said, "I've been waiting for you guys for a long time, let's go!"

Susie felt dazzled, all eight uncles were so handsome, and they were holding roses.

She was amused and burst into giggles.

Susie never knew that this scene would be deeply etched in her memory, and whenever she recalled it in the future, she would feel warmth.

Michael saw Susie laughing and couldn't wait. He quickly took a bite of the rose and picked up Susie, running away, saying, "Let's go!"

All the uncles were suddenly shocked, feeling as if their tower had been stolen, and they hurriedly chased after.

"Michael, you were being unfair! We agreed that Susie would choose whoever's car to ride in, didn't we?"

"Grab Michael and pin him down!"

The lawn in front of the Murray family estate was filled with joyful laughter. Susie was being carried and run around by Michael, while Lucy immediately went to rescue her, only to be stopped by Ryan.

"The girl should walk slowly and be careful not to fall when she wears a skirt," Ryan patted her head.

Lucy immediately protested, "Uncle, my hairstyle is messy!"

Huck joked, "Hey, Lucy, you've grown up and started paying attention to your appearance."

Everyone laughed, and in the end, Martin came out on top and all the children piled into his car.

In the past, the seven uncles owned a car, a uniform black Maybach Landaulet, which was uniformly decorated with roses on the car hood.

Adding to the count, Cielo drove a car...

Nine cars, all neatly lined up, symbolizing longevity and grandeur!

This was still without the grandeur of the twenty-two flower-decorated carriages, Martin said it was unnecessary to make it so ostentatious...

After the Murray family's car had left, a figure emerged from the distant intersection where the Murray family was heading.

She looked sadly at the magnificent procession of cars, Martin got married, causing a sensation in the whole city... No, it should be said that it caused a sensation on the entire internet.

And what about her daughter? When her daughter got married to David, there was no wedding at all. They had to struggle to get the marriage certificate...

This person is Mara's mother, Lucy's grandmother.

Lucy felt extremely bitter as she left the support of the Murray family. She was no longer the wealthy old lady and lived a very impoverished life every day.

Mara was sentenced to 25 years, and as she grew older, there was no one to take care of her. Chloe felt that they couldn't continue like this anymore.
