In her past life, Jiang Ruzhen gave all her family wealth to her adopted daughter. However, the adopted daughter pushed her down the stairs, broke her leg, and starved her to death.
On her de...
Chapter 272 The Boss's Wedding
Even though Mayor Fang usually deals with high-ranking people, he has never seen anyone as generous as Jiang Ruzhen.
On the other hand, it also shows how much they value their daughter.
Mayor Fang and Zhou Jie's resentment towards Shen Zhuoli for not proposing marriage for so long instantly vanished by half.
Just as they were about to speak, Jiang Ruzhen continued to take things out.
"This is a set of cosmetics I customized for Zhou Meizi. I hope you become more and more beautiful and stay eighteen years old every year."
Upon hearing this blessing, Zhou Jie could no longer hide her excitement. She happily accepted the cosmetics and examined them with delight.
"Is this for your own use?"
"Yes, after you use this set of cosmetics, I guarantee you'll look ten years younger, like you're back in your childhood."
"Hahahaha..." Zhou Jie laughed so hard her eyes disappeared. She was very curious about how Jiang Ruzhen maintained her skin.
Unexpectedly, the telepathic connection between the beautiful women was so strong. Before she could even ask, Jiang Ruzhen directly gave her a beauty secret.
Just as Mayor Fang cast an envious glance his way, Jiang Ruzhen placed a proposal in front of him.
"Mayor Fang, this is our factory's expansion plan for the second half of the year. Would you please take a look and give it your approval?"
Mayor Fang was shocked upon hearing this. He picked up the document in disbelief and began to examine it. When he saw the amount, his voice became shrill.
"You want to increase your investment by one million?"
“Yes,” Jiang Ruzhen replied with a smile.
Mayor Fang immediately poured Jiang Ruzhen a cup of tea and discussed the specific details with her.
In less than half an hour.
Jiang Ruzhen won over both of Fang's parents, and all three of them got what they wanted, and everything was settled.
This process left Shen Zhuoli dumbfounded, as he had thought he would be subjected to all sorts of difficulties by Fang's parents.
Unexpectedly, without him saying a word, his mother had already gotten them under her thumb in no time.
His respect for his mother was like a surging river, never-ending.
He's still too inexperienced; there's so much he needs to learn from Jiang Ruzhen.
After spending half a day at the Fang family's house, the basic procedures were finalized.
Under Jiang Ruzhen's watchful eye, Shen Zhuoli proposed to Fang Tingting in front of Fang's parents with great emotion and sincerity.
Fang Tingting cried uncontrollably.
Mr. and Mrs. Fang also had tears in their eyes. No matter how good the material conditions were, they couldn't compare to their future son-in-law's genuine love for their daughter.
Moreover, the prospective son-in-law promised to stay in Yangcheng and not let his daughter marry far away, which won them even more favor.
The banquet was exceptionally lavish, and Jiang Ruzhen, like a man, engaged in lively discussions with Mayor Fang about current affairs and politics.
She could still chat with Zhou Jie about beauty, hairdressing, and fashion trends like a normal woman.
The Fang couple were extremely satisfied with Jiang Ruzhen, their future in-law.
Mayor Fang got drunk for the first time in many years. Zhou Jie and Fang Tingting saw Jiang Ruzhen and Shen Zhuoli off to the door, and were reluctant to part with them even after seeing them off to the gate of the compound.
The wedding date is set for one month from now.
Jiang Ruzhen only needed to talk; all the subsequent trivial matters were left to the boss and Fang Tingting to handle themselves.
She managed the factory for the eldest son until their wedding day.
Shen Zhuoli chose a villa that Jiang Ru had bought as their wedding home. It was not far from the Fang family compound and also not far from where Fang Tingting worked.
Jiang Ruzhen had been thinking about what wedding gift to give the young couple when she suddenly had a great idea.
She called Lu Chuyao for help and asked him to buy her two Santana cars from Hong Kong Island. One was to be given to her eldest son as a wedding gift, and the other was to be her own car.
Because domestic regulations were very strict at that time, the license plate was registered under the name of a Hong Kong Island jewelry company.
During this time, Jiang Ruzhen sent Lu Chuyao a piece of jade the size of a ball. After it was cut open, it turned out to be a rare glass-type jade with three colors: Fu, Lu, and Shou (representing fortune, prosperity, and longevity). Lu Chuyao immediately gave Jiang Ruzhen a high price of 15 million.
After being carved into an ornament, this piece of jade not only won her the championship in a jewelry competition, but also became the prized possession of Lu Chuyao Jewelry Company, which was only exhibited and not sold.
In a good mood, she readily agreed to Jiang Ruzhen's small request to buy two cars.
The day Shen Zhuoli arrived with two cars to arrange the marriage caused a sensation throughout the entire government compound.
Everyone praised the Fang family for finding such a powerful in-law.
The Fang family of three was overjoyed, and Mayor Fang also made a name for himself in front of his colleagues.
Fang's mother, Zhou Jie, also felt proud in front of her friends.
Fang Tingting took the initiative to kiss Shen Zhuoli twice in the car, and Shen Zhuoli immediately blushed, which made Fang Tingting laugh out loud.
On that day, their wedding became the front page headline of the Yangcheng Daily, causing a sensation throughout the city.
Business and political circles mobilized to bring their wedding to a climax.
Night falls, and the festivities come to an end.
The second son sneaked into Jiang Ruzhen's room and begged her to get him a car to drive too.
Jiang Ruzhen had no choice but to give the Santana, which she had just picked up and hadn't even had a chance to warm up, to her second son.
She turned back to Beijing and asked Lu Chuyao to help her get a brand new Toyota AE86 from Hong Kong Island, which looked very cool when driven in China.
When she returned to her parents' place, intending to take them out for a drive, she was informed that her marriage to Lu Mingzheng had been finalized.
The wedding date is set for March next year.
Because the Lu family has a large number of members and the wedding process is very complicated, they have set aside a lot of time to prepare for the wedding.
Although Jiang Ruzhen didn't want to let Bai Jing off the hook, she agreed because her parents made the decision.
The Lu family was overjoyed and packed their bags to return to Hangzhou that very day. Their son was getting married, and there were so many things to prepare.
After they left, Jiang Ruzhen's life returned to normal.
She returned to her studio in Nanluo Lane. She felt guilty because she hadn't finished the clothes she had promised to make for Lu Chuyao. She calmed down and prepared to design a few more outfits for her.
When Lu Xingchen learned that she was engaged to Lu Mingzheng, he said goodbye to her and went to work hard in the real estate company in Shenzhen, southern China.
Seeing that he was relieved, Jiang Ruzhen was very happy and waved goodbye to him.
Lu Chuyao continued to stay in the capital and lived next to Jiang Ruzhen. The two friends, despite their age difference, often met up to drink tea and chat.
"Little Jiang, now that you and Lu Mingzheng are engaged, I, as your aunt, should give you a gift. What do you think of this courtyard of mine? I'll give it to you."
Lu Chuyao took out the key and handed it to Jiang Ruzhen, who hurriedly refused.
This is a three-courtyard siheyuan (traditional courtyard house), and in this area, it would cost at least 200,000 yuan. How could she accept such an expensive gift just for an engagement?
"Don't refuse me, Xiao Jiang. We're destined to be good friends. Even if we weren't good friends, as business partners, would you refuse an engagement gift from me?"
"Well... alright. Then I'll accept without hesitation." Having returned from the future, Jiang Ruzhen naturally knew that business connections and resources were mutually beneficial.
Today I use your resources, tomorrow you use mine; this mutual interaction will make our relationship closer and closer.
She and Lu Chuyao shared the same reasoning.
Just as she accepted the key, the butler entered through the side door. "Reporting, Miss, someone is looking for Miss Jiang."
"Looking for me?" Jiang Ruzhen was surprised. How did someone know her whereabouts?
When she went out to see for herself out of curiosity, she suddenly realized what had happened.
It turned out that it was people from the Ninth Special Operations Bureau who came to find her.
Is she given a task?
