While no one was in the room, Liu Ruyue sat in front of her original body's dressing table and asked the system to exchange a whitening and body-enhancing package for her.
Once the set meal was used, her beauty, which was already eight points, instantly increased to ten points.
A pair of affectionate eyes are about to frown, and the movement of the eyes is captivating.
She lightly touched her red lips, with a hint of charm in her air.
Looking at the Manchu dress on her body, Liu Ruyue had no intention of changing it.
Zhou Jingjiang kept accusing Liu Ruyue of being from the old society and being full of corruption.
So today, Liu Ruyue is going to make Zhou Jingjiang understand one thing: how can the West's history of only a few hundred years compare to the great Chinese nation's thousands of years of cultural heritage?
Those who worship foreign things and fawn on foreigners are lowly at heart!
When Cherry opened the door, she happened to see her young lady holding a pair of earrings hanging on her ears.
Looking at the enchantingly beautiful face in the mirror, Cherry froze in place for a moment. After a long while, she stammered, "Miss, you look so beautiful with makeup on."
After she finished speaking, she seemed to realize that she had made a mistake, and immediately covered her mouth and changed her words: "Young Madam!"
Liu Ruyue turned her head and saw the maid she had brought from her mother's home staring at her face blankly, and she knew how beautiful she was.
"Madam, the mistress sent someone to invite him, saying that the young master has arrived. Why hasn't your master arrived yet?"
Although Yingtao changed her wording, Liu Ruyue knew as soon as she heard it that Zhou Jingjiang's mother's original words must have been very unpleasant.
After all, the original body had a hard time in the Zhou Mansion in the past two years.
She just accepted the memory and was delayed for a moment, so shouldn't she complain?
With the corners of her lips slightly raised, Liu Ruyue said to Yingtao: "It's okay!"
Liu Ruyue stood up slowly, holding a handkerchief, and walked leisurely towards the garden where the welcoming banquet was to be held today.
Holding a welcoming banquet in the garden was mentioned in Zhou Jingjiang's letter. He mentioned that many Western families like to entertain friends in their home gardens, and even have lawn weddings.
In fact, Liu Ruyue learned from her original body's memory that the Zhou Mansion was quite conservative. If a banquet was held according to the Zhou Mansion's previous rules, men and women would most likely sit separately.
However, Zhou Jingjiang's new girlfriend, Lin Shuying, wanted to show off at the party, and Zhou Jingjiang wanted to insult Liu Ruyue in front of everyone to prove his love to his new girlfriend. After thinking about it, the two decided to hold a party in the garden.
Cherry followed her young lady into the garden. Along the way, she stole glances at her several times: her eyes and eyebrows were still the same familiar young lady, but her temperament was a little different.
The ladies in the past were pretty and charming, but now the ladies are cold and lazy.
Liu Ruyue felt Yingtao's strange gaze, smiled, and whispered, "Wait a minute, and you'll understand why your young lady is like this!"
After hearing what the young lady said, Cherry felt even more confused.
"Oh, Jingjiang has become quite successful now. I haven't seen him for two years, but he has become quite handsome!"
Before entering the garden, Liu Ruyue heard others praising Zhou Jingjiang.
Then, a man's voice was heard saying with great pride: "Uncle Chen, London is still a good place to stay. You don't know, the air there is much fresher than our Fog City. When I got there, I took a few deep breaths and felt that the past 18 years I had spent in China were wasted.
There, I felt the charm of freedom, was influenced by culture, and most importantly, I met my destined partner."
"Miss……"
Cherry was so happy when she heard someone praising her brother-in-law.
But as soon as she reached the corner, she saw her brother-in-law holding a woman's hand. He was smiling shyly at the woman and continued, "Shuying and I are both studying abroad there to relax. There, our souls are both free and compatible."
Lin Shuying, who was being stared at lovingly by Zhou Jingjiang, was not shy at all. Instead, she felt a surge of desire to perform. She held her neck high, stood gracefully, and said softly like a proud white swan, "I originally went abroad to study ballet, but unexpectedly, I met Jingjiang there.
Before, I never thought that I would meet a man who is so compatible with my soul.
So, after I graduated, I followed Jingjiang back to visit my uncle and aunt!"
When Zhou Jingjiang heard the woman's words, he placed his big hands on her slender waist, which was outlined by her small dress. His expression was even more proud: "Mother, father, Shuying's father is General Lin, who serves as the deputy to Marshal Fu in Wucheng!"
As soon as these words were spoken, those who had just looked at Lin Shuying with contempt all turned into ones of amazement and envy.
I envy the Zhou family for being so lucky that their younger generation can actually marry into General Lin.
They all knew that General Lin was a favorite of Marshal Fu.
Lin Shuying naturally felt the change in everyone's attitude towards her, and straightened her back even more.
From childhood to adulthood, she has been envied like this many times.
With Zhou Jingjiang holding her hand, Lin Shuying walked towards Zhou's father and mother proudly like a proud peacock.
Mother Zhou enjoyed the honor brought by Lin Shuying's identity, and her face was almost smiling.
"Oh, am I not here at the right time?"
Seeing Zhou's mother holding Lin Shuying's hand with a loving look on her face, Liu Ruyue walked out with Yingtao.
Liu Ruyue's appearance caused a stir at the banquet, and everyone's eyes moved back and forth between Liu Ruyue, Zhou Jingjiang and Lin Shuying with great interest.
"Why are you here?"
As soon as Zhou Jingjiang arrived at the banquet, he looked around but didn't find Liu Ruyue. Although he felt a little regretful that he didn't have the chance to prove his love for Shuying, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, seeing the other party suddenly appear, I couldn't help but ask a question.
After hearing the man's question, Liu Ruyue sneered, "My husband, what you said is really funny. I am the daughter-in-law that my parents married after three matchmakers and six betrothals. I am your first wife. Today is your welcoming banquet. If I, your wife, am not here, where should I be?"
Although Liu Ruyue had a smile on her face, her eyes were filled with coldness. Seeing Lin Shuying being held by Zhou Jingjiang's hand, she asked, "Husband, is this the concubine you found abroad?"
When Zhou Jingjiang heard Liu Ruyue's words, he stared at Lin Shuying nervously and explained, "Shuying, this is the wife I told you I married. I have no feelings for her. You have to believe me!"
After speaking tenderly to Lin Shuying, Zhou Jingjiang shouted at Liu Ruyue with a cold face, "Liu Ruyue, you were the one who shamelessly insisted on marrying me. There is no love between us, and our marriage is invalid.
I am now a young man who has received education from Mr. Democracy and Mr. Science. Look at you, you are so lifeless. How can you be worthy of me?
If you're sensible, you'd better pack your bags and go back to your parents' home. Since we grew up together, I can even give you a letter of divorce."
