Chapter 960: Be serious! We are getting married!

The wedding that had been waited for a long time was finally about to officially start~

After the dharma drum sounded, all the relatives had already entered the main hall, while the newlyweds were waiting outside the hall. Inside, the dojo water scattering ceremony had to be performed first, then the report of the wedding ceremony starting, etc. In short, the newcomers wouldn't enter until the ceremonial music sounded.....

Waiting outside was very boring...... Naoki Nagayama had a feeling of being punished to stand in class..... Looking at Akina, who was quietly wearing a white pure kimono next to him, he had the intention to tease:

"Akina, what time did you get up today....."

"......"

Akina says nothing... even at such a nervous moment...

"What did you eat for breakfast? That hotel restaurant is very good...."

"......"

Big brother! We are getting married! Are you still asking what you ate for breakfast?!

"Eh? Why is Akina not speaking?"

Seeing Akina next to him not responding, Naoki Nagayama lowered his head and looked at Akina under the horn-hiding, and got a beautiful white eye in return.

"Naoki-san, be serious, we are getting married!! We are going in soon!!"

Akina said in a low voice, her small face tightened!

"Why so serious?"

Naoki Nagayama squeezed his eyes and made a face, just like teasing a female classmate who was always serious when going to school, he must make her show other expressions!

"Pfft..... ahem~"

Akina broke her defense and couldn't help laughing, then hurriedly coughed tactically to adjust,

"Such a solemn occasion, Naoki-san, don't be funny!!"

"Such a joyful moment, Akina, don't tighten your face~"

Naoki Nagayama gently poked Akina's puffed-up cheeks,

"It will cake powder~"

"Naoki-san......"

Akina looked at her husband with hatred, feeling her teeth a bit itchy, wishing she could bite him....

"Akina should change her address! It's better to call me honey at this time!" Naoki Nagayama was relentless, looking at Akina's waist, which was about the same as before, clearly blocking her stomach with the white pure kimono, "Or you can call me the baby's dad!"

But wearing the horn-hiding, she couldn't make big movements, otherwise it would be crooked when the time came. Otherwise, she would definitely step on him!!!

"Naoki-san~~~"

"The address is wrong!" Naoki Nagayama teased his newlywed wife with a giggle~

Akina finally just stomped her feet helplessly......

Naoki Nagayama, this guy, on the big day of his life, how could he still be so unreliable?!

Just when Naoki Nagayama still wanted to speak, the ceremonial music of the main hall sounded, and the monk responsible for guiding also walked out, guiding the two to walk inside separately.

Under the guidance of the monk, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori walked slowly into the main hall from both sides. The solemn Buddha sat in the front, looking at the newcomers who entered with a gentle expression.

Naoki Nagayama, wearing a black black haori and hakama, and Akina, wearing a white pure kimono, stood together, black and white but inexplicably harmonious.

The relatives on both sides were all gazing at this beautiful couple. Father Ken Nagayama's eyes were filled with emotion, his hands clenched tightly. His wife noticed and gently patted his arm.

And on the other side, the larger mother's family, Qianhuizi, was moved and gently wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. The gazes of other brothers and sisters were also full of relief.

After bowing to the Buddha, the abbot wearing a cassock also entered the main hall. After a prayer, he took a "paper strip" and waved it back and forth in front of the two while chanting...... This was to summon the souls of the deceased ancestors back to witness this wedding.....

Mm..... a bit like a soul-summoning banner.....

After inviting the ancestors, the following process was fixed. The abbot led the newcomers to burn incense, and then admonished the newcomers, all about mutual respect and love, marriage and childbirth, etc...... also had to point on the forehead with clean water.....

Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori knelt on the cushions in front of the Buddha, listening to the abbot muttering something in front. I don't know why they actually got distracted.....

In their minds appeared the songstress full of brokenness seen on Bilibili in the previous life and the little girl drinking with a round face in front of them. The impact of the two images mixed together.

Recalling again the surprise that emerged when seeing Akina wearing a yukata at the cherry blossom carnival in the cherry blossom season....

Shopping together when helping to draw the prototype of the cat ear hair accessory.....

Going to the scene to cheer when debuting in the selection.....

Then, it was the accidental encounter abroad, and then the accidental encounter at the temple fair.....

The happiness when confessing by the lotus pond, the warmth when chatting on the phone late at night, the happiness of traveling to Europe together......

The scenes of the two dating were played in Naoki Nagayama's mind like a revolving lantern. I don't know when it started, Naoki Nagayama's life was full of Akina Nakamori's figure!!

The abbot sitting in front of the two was reciting scriptures unhurriedly. The wooden mallet hitting the wooden fish made a rhythmic sound, like the thumping sound of a drum kit. Naoki Nagayama's heartbeat started to speed up, as if beating to the rhythm together~

The chanting sound in his ears seemed to have become the impressive female voice of Izumi Sakai:

"

DANDAN kokoro hikareteku

(Gradually attracted to you)

Sono mabushii egao ni

(By your dazzling smile)"

DANDAN kokoro hikareteku

(Gradually attracted to you)

Jibun demo fushigi nan dakedo

(Although I also feel it's incredible)

Nani ka aru to ichiban ni

(Once something happens)

Kimi ni denwa shitaku naru

(Always want to be the first to call you)

"

*DANDAN kokoro hikareteku* (Gradually attracted to you)...... Such a song suddenly appeared in Naoki Nagayama's mind......

The cheerful melody paired with affectionate lyrics. When listening to it before, I always thought of the story at the beginning of *Dragon Ball*, and thought it was a love song from Bulma to Goku.....

Clearly Bulma knew Goku first, why did she lose to Chi-Chi later?!

All kinds of strange thoughts rushed out of Naoki Nagayama's mind.......

At this time, if you measure Naoki Nagayama's brain waves, they must be messy, like an explosion!

His sleeve was tugged, making Naoki Nagayama come back to his senses.

Naoki Nagayama was clearly distracted just now. Akina next to him was pulling his sleeve to remind him!

Looking up, Akina, wearing the horn-hiding, opened her eyes wide, revealing an incredible expression....... Could there really be someone who would be distracted at their own wedding?!

Looking back to the front, the abbot had already let the monk send over a wooden box, inside were two very exquisite prayer beads (longevity beads). Now it was the stage of giving longevity beads!

"Arigato...."

Naoki Nagayama picked up his own, put his hands together to express his gratitude to the abbot, and Akina next to him also put her hands together and bowed.

The abbot nodded, and then continued the ceremony process.....

The monk offered the small wooden box again, inside were two wedding rings..... Not pigeon eggs, just ordinary gold rings. This was for wearing often in the future, just a ceremony to indicate the marriage contract at the ceremony.

And relative to the sapphire engagement ring, the pink diamond ring was naturally already bought, but it wasn't worn on this occasion.

After exchanging rings, they also had to drink the oath wine..... The wine was also ordinary sake, nothing special~

The relatives next to them also had to drink as witnesses..... It seemed like a Japanese tradition, when setting any contract, they had to drink.....

After drinking the wine, they recited the wedding vows.... The general meaning was "Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori are married today, and will respect and love each other in the future...... hand in hand until old age....."

Naoki Nagayama and Akina held the vows together, reciting to the abbot and Buddha, and then under the leadership of the abbot, reported to the Buddha and the souls of the ancestors!

A traditional Buddhist wedding was now coming to an end.......

Next, the abbot would recite some blessing scriptures, but they were all minor details. After the ceremonial music in the main hall sounded again, the abbot had already retired. The remaining Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori, as a couple, spoke with the relatives present......

"Grandfather....." Naoki Nagayama took Akina to Hayato Nagayama's side and introduced her, "This is Akina, your granddaughter-in-law...."

Due to the sensitivity of the identity, Akina Nakamori was seeing Grandfather for the first time, and hurriedly bowed to greet;

"Grandfather-sama, nice to meet you, I am Akina Nakamori...."

"It's Akina Nagayama..." Naoki Nagayama reminded quietly.

"Ah, I am Akina Nagayama...." Even with thick powder, Naoki Nagayama could see Akina blushing~

"Mm, you are both very good!" Grandfather Hayato Nagayama had a satisfied smile on his face and said to Akina, "As for the meeting gift, I will give it to you later...... However, due to some reasons, I won't attend the wedding banquet later. You two have fun~"

"Hai, thank you Grandfather...."

"Haha, go and visit your father-in-law and mother-in-law...."

Next, naturally, he visited other relatives, and the relatives of the two families also communicated with each other at this time. Because of Japanese cultural traditions, the relatives of the husband's family and the wife's family almost didn't contact each other. This might be one of the few exchanges, so it seemed quite lively~

The Nagayama family was thin in population, but the Nakamori family was prosperous, and the younger generation had no generation gap, so the communication was very enthusiastic...... Big brother Qingmu and Feng Yongshan were chatting with Akina's brothers, and Tsuruko, who was already familiar with Minghui, was chatting happily with Akina's sisters~

However, the previous generation was not very good. Akina's father, Mingnan Nakamori, and Naoki Nagayama's father, Ken Nagayama, were just politely polite, and didn't dare to talk to Uncle Xiong Yuan Nagayama at all, appearing very cautious.

Qianhuizi Nakamori and Nanako Nagayama were chatting easily...... and the children of the two families, Yecao and Zhaoming, little Ai, could also be considered to have played together~

Until the end, under the reminder of the monk, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori left the main hall. The entire wedding ceremony was finally considered over!

In the side hall, Akina took off the horn-hiding...... and then hurriedly greeted Naoki Nagayama next to her:

"Naoki-san, come and help me pull this belt open....."

"...... Eh?" Naoki Nagayama was instantly "shocked", "Akina..... we are in the temple!! This is not good!"

"What!!!" Akina reacted instantly, and hammered her husband's arm in shame and anger, "Let you help me loosen it!"

"So that's how it is! You scared me~"

Naoki Nagayama then smiled and helped Akina loosen the belt of the white pure kimono..... Akina's stomach could already be seen now. To not show anything different during the ceremony, the belt was tied very tightly.....

"Phew~~~"

As soon as the belt was loosened, Akina breathed a sigh of relief..... She had to keep breathing in small mouthfuls during the ceremony just now, which was even more tiring than dancing ballet!

After relaxing her body, Akina immediately retaliated against her "abominable" husband, while pinching the soft flesh and accusing:

"Told you to be funny before the wedding! You were even distracted during the wedding?! Let you be indecent just now!"

"Ah ah ah ah~ dame dame!"

Naoki Nagayama smiled and resisted Akina's attack. The two laughed and played for a while, and then Naoki Nagayama explained the reason to her.

"Naoki-san, you had a flash of inspiration again and created a song?" Akina looked at Naoki Nagayama in surprise.

"Yes.... when the emotions arrive, it's easy to have an explosion of inspiration~" Naoki Nagayama nodded and said, "Marriage, this kind of thing, I'm also participating for the first time, naturally a bit excited..... It was also to relieve the nervous mood before!"

"......"

Seems very reasonable.

Although very curious about what song Naoki Nagayama created, naturally he couldn't be asked to write it out now. The two had other things to do!

"Then now, shall we go take photos?" Akina asked.

"Mm, wait for the wedding company's notification, they have photographers!"

Naoki Nagayama opened the door of the side hall and looked outside..... The relatives of the two were already prepared on the square, wanting to take a family photo.

After taking the photo, they had to go to the hotel to attend the wedding banquet later, while Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori had to stay for a while. The two were going to take wedding photos wearing white pure kimono here!

After that, they would go to the hotel to change into new formal wear and disclose the news of their marriage to their friends. Anyway, the wedding banquet was in the afternoon, so it wouldn't be delayed.

Now a monk, Kotaro Obara was hiding in the corner nervously at this time.

He originally wanted to take photos of the two's wedding ceremony, but the atmosphere in the main hall just now was so serious, and there were so many pairs of eyes, he could only take a few photos from the cracks in the window.

This window was something he had specially tampered with during this period, otherwise it would have been closed!

Added to the photos of Naoki Nagayama and Akina entering the temple taken when greeting the bride before, it should have been enough..... But he still wanted to take more!

Sacrificing the full head of hair, transforming into Guangzhi...... If there was only this result in the end, Kotaro Obara was not satisfied!

Seeing that the group photo of the newcomers and relatives had been taken, the relatives started to leave, especially the little brothers around the temple also started to disperse. Kotaro Obara felt that his opportunity finally arrived!

He hid behind a remote pillar, pretending to hold a broom and dustpan, covering the high-definition camera with his wide sleeves..... Couldn't focus, could only rely on feel to take photos......

He wanted to take a few more while the two were taking wedding photos!!!

Even if it was just one, it was good!

"Guangzhi...... Guangzhi!" Just at this time, a monk walked over from the side and called his dharma name, making Kotaro Obara tremble all over, hurriedly hiding the camera, "I'm here, what's the matter?"

"What are you doing here? Ah, sweeping the floor.... No need for now!" The guest monk walked over, grabbed him and walked towards the front, "I remember you said you were a cameraman before, right?"

"!!!" Kotaro Obara broke out in cold sweat instantly!

"The cameraman of the wedding company accidentally fell just now, his hands are not steady, and he needs a helper......" The guest monk continued, "So I thought of you...."

"Me?" Kotaro Obara was a bit repulsive. He still wanted to sneak photos. "But I am a monk! Already became a monk....."

The guest monk looked over and said earnestly:

"Guangzhi..... the donor of the wedding company donated quite a lot of incense money to the temple...... You go to help take a few photos now, it doesn't break the precepts or commit the precepts...... What's impossible about it?!!"

"Buddha wants incense, we monks also need to eat vegetarian food..... Don't you think? Guangzhi?"

"........"

While speaking, Kotaro Obara had already been pulled to the front of the square. Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori and three others were waiting......

"It's him! Knows a little photography skill!" The guest monk said so.

"Okay, this master, trouble you~" The cameraman of the wedding company held his arm and nodded.

After negotiating with the cameraman of the wedding company, Kotaro Obara was stuffed with a reflector in his hand and arranged the heavy responsibility of lighting!

"......?"

Kotaro Obara looked at the reflector in his hand, looked at the complacent guest monk, and couldn't speak..... Just this, is it worth a professional cameraman to operate?

It must be that the guest monk saw his seniority was the shallowest, so he commanded him to do hard labor at will!!

How could a professional wedding company hand over the camera to others?!

People in the photography team almost all know how to take photos, okay. Even if the main cameraman is injured, others can take over..... They are just missing a helper!!

So Kotaro Obara was helplessly holding the reflector, lighting for the two under the command of the photographer......

Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori naturally didn't recognize this monk, just asked politely and started posing for photos~

Clearly the newcomers he wanted to shoot were right in front of him, but the camera in his sleeve couldn't be taken out......

This is simply killing and punishing the heart!!!

The bitterness in the corners of his eyes was about to overflow! ===== CHAPTER 961 =====
