Chapter 1788: A War Without Winners (Part 238)
Chapter 1788: A War Without Winners (Part 238)
It was more like an unexpected turn of events.
No one could have predicted such an outcome.
Perhaps if Fred and George had followed the traditional wizarding wedding customs instead of their eccentric ways, this mess wouldn't have occurred today.
After all, the twins weren't exactly 'important figures', and the Weasley family didn't need to attach special significance to this private wedding.
But, against all odds, it happened.
Who could you even complain to about this?
Some things just don't make sense.
Fred and George were quite helpless in this situation, feeling as if they had swallowed a fly, but they had to force themselves to endure it. They couldn't very well start a fight with their own family over this.
Even if they wanted to, it wasn't the right time.
No one wanted to become the laughingstock of the magical world! Although they felt incredibly frustrated, it seemed like this was the only option for now.
However, it was up to them to decide how to compromise on this matter.
As the most rebellious twin brothers in the Weasley family, Fred and George wouldn't allow themselves to be easily manipulated by others.
After exchanging opinions, the two quickly came up with a jaw-dropping solution.
Whoever invited them, let them handle the reception.
Once their wedding ceremony was over, they could easily find another place to continue the unfinished wedding banquet. There was no need to force themselves to stay with a group of people who affected their mood.
"They really are..."
Cedric was relieved that his family hadn't pulled a stunt like this when he got married.
"As long as they don't regret it, there's not much we can say as outsiders," Albert wasn't worried about Fred and George causing trouble; they weren't children and knew how to control their emotions.
"For such an important occasion as a wedding, I wonder what their family is thinking."
Cedric withdrew his gaze and turned to Albert, asking, "By the way, when are you planning to leave?"
"At the latest, in a week."
"It feels like there's not enough time. Why don't you leave later?" Cedric was surprised, as he had initially thought Albert would wait until the beginning of September to leave Britain.
"If I leave any later, they might start fighting over there," Albert turned his head towards the entrance of the tent.
He heard footsteps.
"I just heard George say..."
Truman, who had just entered, immediately sensed the unusual atmosphere inside and raised his eyebrows slightly, asking, "What's wrong?"
No one answered.
"I'm just a bit worried about Shanna. Is she really okay?"
Cedric was indeed very concerned. Albert was leaving in a hurry, and Shanna didn't have the same authority as Albert, making it hard to believe she could smoothly take over what Albert had left behind.
"You didn't say that before."
"I had to act that way because there were others around..."
"So I'm not a person?" Truman couldn't help but tease.
"You won't go blabbing about it everywhere."
"As long as you follow the plan I left for you, there won't be any problems. Shanna is experienced in this regard." After greeting Truman, Albert turned his attention back to Cedric, reminding him, "I'm telling you, stop obsessing over this. It's repetitive and annoying. Who knows, they might drop everything and leave too. What will you do then?"
"I just don't want to lose this place."
"Stop worrying needlessly. Go out and take a look. This situation is quite unpleasant," Truman pushed the two towards the exit.
It was indeed quite distressing.
Since Fred and George found out about this, things outside had become a mess.
The Weasley couple, who had already hosted several weddings, were also overwhelmed.
Especially when Fred and George came to inquire about the reason, it made the Weasley couple feel even more disheartened.
Fred and George both acted very politely, appearing as if they were seeking solutions, but the couple could sense a chilling aloofness from their sons, as if they had been doused with cold water in the middle of winter.
After the twins left, Mrs. Weasley almost couldn't hold back her tears.
"You shouldn't..."
There was no mistake in the content of the book.
Bill felt uneasy about this and had never imagined that Fred and George's wedding would turn out like this.
He never expected that Fred and George would be so indifferent to their own family.
"Dear Bill, are you trying to blame us?" George asked with a mischievous smile, "Or do you think this is entirely our problem from start to finish?"
"You shouldn't..." Bill hesitated, "It's not their fault."
"It's our fault," Fred said with a mischievous smile.
"We just want this wedding to end smoothly," George's fake smile grew even more, making Bill feel a bit eerie.
"If you still have time to argue these pointless things with us here, you might as well help check if there are any issues with the wedding ceremony," Fred and George walked away together, leaving Bill stunned in his place.
Although there was help from the enthusiastic Avalon residents, after they messed up the original wedding plan, the help they could provide was limited. Now, the most important thing was to muddle through this wedding.
As for the idea of leaving a beautiful memory with a grand and joyous wedding, Fred and George dared not have too many expectations.
The sudden change in the wedding quickly became known to everyone.
Angelina and Katie, who were aware of the situation, even went to find their families, only to discover that only the young people were kept in the dark.
The three families had already communicated beforehand, forcefully turning this "simple" wedding back to its original form.
The personal wishes of the groom and bride were naturally not as important; as long as the wedding could be held smoothly, fulfilling its purpose was enough.
"I can't believe they dared to... If someone causes trouble, it might not be easy to wrap things up."
Angelina and Katie were both frustrated, but they had no better solution. They couldn't deliberately ruin their own wedding, after all.
In the end, the two went to find Fred and George, and after some discussion, the four of them decided to just let things be.
Let it be however it may.
After all, the real embarrassment, if any, wouldn't necessarily be theirs.
In the situation where most young people chose to let things be, the parents, who believed they could control everything, soon realized they were short-staffed, and many tasks were left unattended.
Harry and Ron, who were greeting guests at the entrance, felt even more miserable. They were astonished to find that there were many more invited guests than they had anticipated, and the worst part was that they had also received invitations, which didn't match the guest list. Moreover, the Avalon residents who had promised to help were nowhere to be found.
"I feel like a fool. What are they up to!" After exchanging a glance with Harry, Ron decided to figure out the situation first.
