@penguinlives: A young man’s wedding in a rural village in Yunnan, southwestern China. His guest list went from "anyone" to "everyone" Known on Douyin as “Xiao Xiao Xu”, Xu Chenghong, 24, grew up under hardship. He shared in a video that his father died when he was 3, while his mother later remarried and left him when he was 5. His grandmother, who took care of him, died when he was 7, leaving him and his older brother to fend for each other. Xu later dropped out of junior high school and worked odd jobs, including delivery and construction, eventually saving more than 160,000 RMB (S$ 31,000 or US$ 24,000 or Euro 21,426) for his wedding. He expected just 10 to 20 people after inviting strangers on Douyin, but thousands came from across China to celebrate with him, Chuanguan News reported.
