Chapter 835: First marriage, no experience

~4 min read 673 words

Civil Affairs Bureau.

Jiang Yuanliang had originally said he wanted to be the first pair this afternoon, but he was dumbfounded when he arrived.

At this moment, the entire hall was packed with people, and the line in the corridor stretched out for a long way.

"Didn't they say the marriage rate is dropping significantly now? Why are there so many people getting married?" Jiang Yuanliang couldn't help but say.

Shen Jingjing patted him: "There's a staff member over there, go over and ask if there are any numbers left."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded. The two walked hand-in-hand to the staff member, and Jiang Yuanliang asked: "Excuse me, can we still get a number today?"

The staff member looked at the two and asked uncertainly: "Marriage?"

"Yes."

Seeing this, the staff member shook their head: "There are no numbers left today. Today is May 20th, and people getting married are all flocking here. These are all reserved online in advance; there are no numbers on-site today. You can come back in a few days; when there are fewer people, you can get a number on-site."

520, no wonder.

The two looked at each other with understanding; clearly, neither of them had paid attention to the date.

Jiang Yuanliang was a bit annoyed: "It's quite a coincidence to run into this day, but there are no numbers. Such a good day requires online reservation in advance."

Shen Jingjing couldn't help but laugh at his reaction: "You still care about this?"

Originally, he didn't care, but having run into it, he felt this day was indeed good. Although it was something created by the romance of young people, for happy people about to step into marriage, this number could indeed make the happiness index soar; otherwise, so many people wouldn't have chosen this day.

"Since we ran into it and can't get married, isn't it a pity?"

Jiang Yuanliang said, taking out his phone: "Wait for me to make a call."

Shen Jingjing nodded with a smile, watching Jiang Yuanliang walk aside to make the call.

About five minutes later, he came back smiling: "There's a way, let's wait a while."

Not long after, a middle-aged woman in professional attire walked over quickly. She stopped in the hall, scanned the people in the hall, and finally her gaze landed on Jiang Yuanliang, carefully identifying him uncertainly before walking up to greet him: "Mr. Jiang?"

"Yes, hello."

The female manager immediately smiled: "With your hat and mask, I didn't dare to recognize you. Our director already told me, you two come with me."

Jiang Yuanliang became visibly happy and thanked her repeatedly.

After going to the second floor of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the two followed the female manager into a small room.

"Xiao Wang, register the marriage for these two newlyweds."

The female manager greeted, then turned to explain to Jiang Yuanliang: "This office can also register; it's usually prepared for social figures with special status like yours."

"Sorry to trouble you." Jiang Yuanliang thanked her again: "I originally thought we'd just come and get a number to get the certificate, I didn't expect so many people today."

The female manager smiled: "Every year, 520 and 521 are like this; they're booked out two months in advance."

Jiang Yuanliang subconsciously looked at Shen Jingjing and smiled, embarrassed: "Both of us are getting married for the first time, we have no experience."

The female manager also smiled. She looked at the two and offered her blessings: "First, I wish you both a happy marriage. The photo-taking is in the room inside."

So the two went to take photos first.

The staff member handling the registration appeared very calm on the surface, but after all, Jiang Yuanliang and his new wife were sitting opposite, so they couldn't help but use their peripheral vision to look.

"Alright, I wish you both a happy marriage."

Two small red books were handed to them respectively, and the two reached out to take them at the same time. ===== CHAPTER 836 =====
