@chinaminutes: 🌧️ A wedding banquet in China’s Shaanxi province went viral after a sudden torrential rainstorm flooded the entire outdoor venue — but the guests kept eating anyway. Videos showed hundreds of guests sitting ankle-deep in water while continuing the celebration as heavy rain poured down around them. According to online reports, around 200 to 300 people stayed at the banquet until the afternoon despite the storm. Many on Chinese social media joked that people had finally experienced a real “流水席” (liúshuǐxí), translated as “flowing water banquet,” which is a traditional Chinese feast style where dishes continuously flow to guests. Others said the unexpected rain was actually a good omen, referencing the saying “遇水来财” (yù shuǐ lái cái), meaning “where there’s water, wealth follows,” as water is traditionally associated with prosperity in Chinese culture. 💭 Would you stay and finish the banquet or run for cover? 👀 —— #weddingtok #weddingclips #failvideo #viralmoment

They are dealing with it like the Brits- it’s only a little rain😉. As long as tables have not been washed away, the banquet can carry on!
