A Moment being Moved


今天是蘭蘭的大喜之日,恭喜恭喜!
很感動的一刻在蘭姊被永生姊夫扶著要搭禮車到夫家的時候,車窗搖了下來,大姑在蘭姊的面前不知叮嚀了甚麼,原本說不哭的蘭蘭掉下了眼淚,留下了扇子和潑在地上的水,我聽到好多人都在鞭炮聲中抽噎,不知怎麼大喜之日突然變得有點感傷......

Today my cousin (my father's big sister's daughter, or 表姊) got married. According to Chinese tradition, it means that she's going to be a member in the family of her husband. So the groom came to pick her up to his place. Before the car went, her mother was like making the last words for her, and somehow she burst out into tears. The happy day was at a moment sentimental, though we know in nowadays we don't really follow the tradition to let the wife live as a member in the family of her husband.
