A convoy of bicycles rode conspicuously down the main street, drawing plenty of curious looks from the public. Few would have imagined that these ordinary-seeming bicycles far exceeded the value of a car.
Within half an hour, they arrived and parked outside the Yang family's compound. The gate of the compound was festooned with celebratory 'double happiness' characters ('囍') and red lanterns.
The gate was firmly shut. As the groom, Nie Zhenbang naturally did not have to do anything yet. His cohorts, Guo Ming and Zhao Xinglong, went ahead and knocked loudly on the front door.
Herving arrogantly at the entrance of the Yang's compound was likely only possible today. On a normal day, their bold actions would be met with a round of scolding from Elder Yang. Of course, today was different; they were here to fetch the bride. If they did not act this way, the day would lack its intended lively atmosphere.
