He politely  43  his lady in the knee-deep water and then sat down himself. All people around laughed and cheered.
44 appeared. He paused for just a second, walked into the water to  45  the table and take their  46  , and then walked back to the  47 cheers of the rest of his  48  . Minutes later he returned carrying a bottle of wine and two glasses. Without pausing, he went  49  into the water to  50 the wine. The couple toasted(祝酒) each other, the waiter and the crowd. And the crowd  51  by cheering and throwing flowers to them. Three other tables  52 to have lunch in the water. The place was now filled with laughter.
