Jiang Lin smiled and cupped his hands in greeting: "Then I wish my sister and brother-in-law a lifetime of happiness and a long and happy life together. May you give us a nephew soon, or even better, a niece."

The people inside and outside the house were laughing and joking. Zheng Yang was also happy: "Then I'll take your good wishes and work hard."

"Hahaha, Zheng Yang is getting anxious, he's getting anxious."

"How could I not be anxious after waiting for so many years?"

"That's right, now he's finally married into the family. Look how closely he's been keeping an eye on things these past few years."

Amidst everyone's laughter, Zheng Yang knocked on the door: "Open the door quickly, honey, we're home."

Jiang Hui, meanwhile, took photos of some important moments of the wedding with the camera and film her sister had given her.

Behind the house lived Hu Xi, Kong Xuefang, Liu Xiangqiao, and her cousin and sister-in-law. They chattered, "We can open the door, but where's the red envelope?"

Zheng Yang quickly took a few red envelopes from his cousin and stuffed them through the crack in the door: "Here, all of them are for you, sisters-in-law and sisters, please don't make things difficult for me, let me in."

The people behind the house burst into laughter. Kong Xuefang pulled them back, saying, "Don't stop us. Look how anxious our groom is."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened, and the people outside rushed in like a swarm of bees: "Oh, oh, we're here to pick up the bride!"

Zheng Yang looked at his wife sitting on the bed. He had never seen Ruyu with makeup on before. She was so beautiful: "Wife, you are so beautiful."

Jiang Ruyu blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look him in the eye. Zheng Yang's eyes looked like he wanted to devour her.

Sister-in-law Fang Meili said with a smile, "Hurry up and put socks and shoes on our bride."

Zheng Yang stopped staring at Ru Yu and picked up the red socks next to him, clumsily putting them on Ru Yu.

"You're not very good at this job, you need to practice more," Kong Xuefang joked.

Zheng Yang was so anxious that he was sweating a little: "Yeah, I'll definitely practice more in the future."

"Haha, our groom is really very satisfied with his bride."

"Exactly, look at how they agree with everything they say, they're really worthless."

It took Zheng Yang a while to put socks on his wife, and he didn't care at all about what others were saying: "Tch, what's wrong with loving your wife? You may think I'm worthless, but as long as my wife thinks I'm valuable, that's all that matters, isn't it, Ruyu?"

Jiang Ruyu blushed and nodded: "Yes, that's good. You are priceless to me."

Wow!

"Haha, you two are a perfect match."

Zheng Yang nodded: "You're right."

After putting brown rabbit fur boots on Jiang Ruyu, Zheng Yang carried his wife off the bed. Zheng Xiaoyue spread a red blanket at their feet before Zheng Yang put her down.

Then Zheng Yang invited Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Hu Jun, whose eyes were red, to sit on the bed. He knelt down with a thud. Jiang Ruyu was deeply moved, and tears welled up in her eyes. She also knelt down.

Zheng Yang's actions surprised everyone in the room. Grandma Jiang and Hu Jun quickly tried to help them up, saying, "What are you doing? Get up quickly."

Zheng Yang said with a smile, "Grandma, Grandpa, Ruyu is your precious treasure. I took away the flower you've raised for over twenty years, pot and all. You can accept my kowtow."

Zheng Yang kowtowed three times to the old lady, and Jiang Ruyu followed suit and kowtowed three times as well.

The old lady and the women in the room were all teary-eyed. Old Lady Jiang said with trembling lips, "Since you have this intention, I feel at ease entrusting Ruyu to you. From now on, you will be husband and wife. You must discuss things properly and support each other so that you can live a smooth life."

Jiang Ruyu and Zheng Yang nodded, their hands clasped tightly. "We will definitely live well and won't let you worry about us."

"That's good. Grandma also wishes you a long and happy life together."

With tears in his eyes, Hu Jun only said, "I just hope you all live your lives well."

After bidding farewell to his family, Zheng Yang picked up his wife and walked outside amidst the cheers of the crowd. Zheng Xiaoyue folded up the red carpet and followed him out, stretching out her arm to hold an umbrella for her brother and sister-in-law.

Zheng Yang's cousins ​​followed suit and started scattering wedding candies, which everyone then scrambled to grab.

Jiang Ruyi, mingling in the crowd, looked at the beautiful Jiang Ruyu who was being blessed by everyone, and her jealousy was almost overflowing.

Why, why is she inferior to her orphaned cousin in every way? She is clearly prettier, has both parents who are employees, and has had a happier childhood than her. Why is it that she is inferior to her in every way now that she is grown up?

Jiang Ruyu has a job, a loving grandmother and a kind younger brother, and now she has a husband who loves her so much. Judging from the Zheng family's attitude, they are very satisfied with Jiang Ruyu as their daughter-in-law.

Why does she get all the good things, while I, on the other hand, was sent to the countryside by Jiang Ruyu's father just because I got into a fight with her? And whenever it comes to anything related to Jiang Ruyu, her father always sides with others.

She married Gu Changzheng through her own efforts and even gave birth to the Gu family's eldest grandson. However, because she lacked a powerful maternal family, and Gu's sister-in-law gave birth to twin healthy boys, her advantage in the Gu family vanished.

Although her in-laws no longer show obvious favoritism, they no longer dote on Mingming as they did at the beginning. They even set up a children's room in their house that is bigger than Mingming's room, and they often bring their little grandson to stay there. It's better to be distant than close. Her son's status is now lower than that of Gu Changzheng's two children.

Moreover, both Gu Changlin and Li Huimin have legitimate salaries, while Gu Changzheng's job is just a fancy name; he's actually a gatekeeper, earning only about thirty yuan a month. She doesn't have a job, and if their family didn't live with her husband's family, that little money wouldn't be enough for them to live on.

Watching Kong Xuefang and the others move Jiang Ruyu's dowry—so many quilts on the bed, a radio, and so many red envelopes from people—she saw the new room again, and everything filled her with jealousy and resentment.

She and Gu Changzheng had an affair without a matchmaker. The Gu family already looked down on her background and despised her family. Her relationship with Gu Changzheng was also considered dishonorable. Even though she had been back for so long, the Gu family had never publicly revealed her identity, nor had they ever taken her out to see the world. In the Gu family, she was only slightly better off than a cook or a housekeeper.

She stared blankly at the red in the yard, her heart pounding so hard she felt like her lungs were about to explode. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she wanted to destroy everything. What I don't have, why should Jiang Ruyu have it? She doesn't deserve it.

Jiang Lin quickly noticed her unusual behavior. He had seen blood before, and when he saw Jiang Ruyi, he didn't recognize her at first because she was wrapped up very tightly. However, due to his training, he could sense that something was wrong with her, so he started to stare at her.

When he noticed her trying to sneak into the kitchen and reaching for the matches, Jiang Lin quietly walked up behind her and asked, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Jiang Ruyi was so startled that she dropped the match in her hand. She turned around abruptly, and the scarf around her head fell off, revealing her pale and resentful face.

"Jiang Ruyi, you really haven't given up your evil intentions. What are you planning to do this time? Take a match and start a fire?"

Jiang Ruyi was so frightened by Jiang Lin's gaze that she couldn't speak. She hurriedly pushed Jiang Lin away and tried to run away, but who was Jiang Lin? Did he think he could just let her go? His hands gripped Jiang Ruyi's hands like vises.
