Chapter 111 Preparations before Engagement
The night before their engagement, Lin Shutang stayed at the Feng family's house. Zhao Lanzhi said that once she left her parents' home, others would know she had someone to rely on, and they would not dare to bully her.
Lin Shutang found this statement amusing. No matter how much outsiders bullied her, their methods would be no worse than those of the Feng family. It had always been the Feng family that bullied her the most, and the Feng family had never been her family. The Feng family had let her live in their home for two reasons. One was to make the Jin family think she was close to the Feng family, so they could benefit from them in the future. The other was to prevent her from escaping.
However, in a marriage based on profit, none of this matters.
Lin Shutang stayed at Feng's house for the entire morning without going out.
Jiang Qinyuan arrived at Feng's house right after lunch. Seeing the servants coming in and out of the villa to decorate the interior and exterior, she casually complained, "Your uncle and aunt really care about face."
It was obvious that he only regarded Lin Shutang as a bargaining chip, so he chose such a hasty time. The engagement party was not held at home, but he still had to decorate it.
"It's better to save all this nonsense and give you more dowry in the future."
Lin Shutang smiled and didn't refute what she said. He just asked, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Qinyuan rolled her eyes at Lin Shutang: "What are you talking about? I am your eldest daughter-in-law. I should be present for your most important event in life."
As she spoke, she casually picked up the jewelry on the table and took a look at it, then put it down with disdain: "I knew the Feng family wouldn't care much about you, luckily I was prepared."
As she spoke, she glanced at the time on the screen: "It should be here soon."
Soon after, a group of people entered Feng's house carrying several boxes.
The stylist hired by the Feng family had just finished applying makeup to Lin Shutang when Jiang Qinyuan came in from outside and pulled her away: "Hey, what did you do to this beautiful face?"
As she spoke, she poured makeup remover water for Lin Shutang and gently removed her makeup with a cotton pad: "Shutang is only a few years old, and you are giving her such an old-fashioned makeup. If you don't know how to put it on, don't do it. Such a beautiful face, leaving it in your hands, is a waste of nature."
"Get out of the way." The makeup artist wanted to argue, but was pushed away by the stylist who followed her in.
The stylist that Jiang Qinyuan hired was indeed not as skilled as the previous one. Lin Shutang felt a clear difference in less than half an hour.
She looked at herself in the mirror and saw that she was changing little by little. It seemed that everything had changed, yet it also seemed that nothing had changed.
"Ms. Lin, are you interested in being a model for me?"
"Ah?" Lin Shutang asked in confusion.
"Your face is the most standard I've ever seen."
There are many beautiful people, but most people have some facial flaws. For example, slightly different eyes, uneven eyebrows, and less smooth facial lines. To ordinary people, these may not be obvious or even noticeable, but in this industry, we have seen so many faces that we can still spot even the smallest flaws at a glance.
There are very few people like Lin Shutang who are both beautiful and have regular facial features.
If one could really pick out something about this face, it would be that her eyebrows were a bit too soft, and her eyelashes were long but not curled enough, making her look listless. But, in his opinion, this wasn't really a problem. Not to mention that makeup could fix it, even without it, Lin Shutang's eyebrows and eyes were remarkably harmonious on her face.
She must be in poor health, her face is a little pale, and her figure is thinner than ordinary people. Her eyebrows and eyelashes make her look like Lin Daiyu.
"Ms. Lin, I'm serious. I sincerely invite you to join our company."
