As Su Mama walked out of the room, Xu Zhuohua followed behind her, repeatedly saying, "Su Mama, you must remember that men and women are equal."
On the stairs, Granny Su almost fell, completely losing her composure and dignity.
"Madam, I am no match for this arrogant and conceited young lady. You should find someone more capable!"
Madam Cheng couldn't stop Granny Su; she left as if she were avoiding a plague.
When Xu Ma went to see him off, Madam Cheng looked up at Xu Zhuohua, who was leaning on the railing, and was furious. "Go back to your room now. You're grounded for another month."
Xu Zhuohua turned around nonchalantly and snorted.
She wasn't afraid at all; she just thought these people were utterly ridiculous.
The right thing is that everyone is equal and everyone is free.
Back in the room, Xinghua was still standing there, seemingly lost in thought.
"What's wrong, Xinghua? Don't worry, no one will bully you anymore. I will protect you."
Xinghua raised her eyes, her bright eyes seemingly concealing turbulent waves.
"Miss, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true, I will protect you."
Xinghua grabbed Xu Zhuohua's hand and said somewhat anxiously, "It's not that, it's equality for all."
Xu Minghua returned from studying abroad and often talked about equality at home. Xinghua had heard it many times, but still didn't understand its deeper meaning. Today, Xu Zhuohua's remarks made this little maid born in the feudal era suddenly understand something.
Xu Zhuohua was also pleasantly surprised, "Yes, it's not just about gender equality, but also about equality for all people. Whether you are poor or rich, male or female, or whatever you do to make a living, everyone is equal and has the same rights."
Xinghua's eyes were bright. "The Second Miss used to talk about equality all the time, but she wasn't like the Miss. The Second Miss thought that the poor were the poor, and she treated us the same way. The Miss is different. The Miss is very good to me. I feel that the Miss doesn't treat me like a maid."
Xu Zhuohua's smile deepened as she patted Xinghua's head. "Of course, I know more than she does."
Thoughts can be changed, and behaviors can be changed, but it's a long road.
Xu Minghua was born into this environment, and her ideas are deeply ingrained, making it difficult to change them all at once. But the fact that she can express them is already quite remarkable.
This shows that she has at least awakened to some extent, and those who are truly awakened will lead China toward the light.
Xu Zhuohua lay in bed, his mind filled with lust after a full stomach.
Music started playing outside the window; it was soothing, melodious, and very pleasant to listen to.
After a while, it changed to a lively waltz.
Xu Zhuohua suddenly jumped out of bed, waltz!
Mrs. Cheng is preparing for the ball.
Many celebrities from Shinkai City will be attending the ball. If she makes a fool of herself at the ball and is looked down upon by the upper class of Shinkai City, she will be able to win their favor.
If she spreads her reputation for being ill-mannered even further, Madam Cheng and Governor Cheng will definitely not allow her to enter the house.
Xu Zhuohua had a brilliant plan in mind.
Let's do it!
"Apricot Blossom! Where's the phonograph?"
It took Xu Zhuohua a long time to figure out what the phonograph, which looked like a large loudspeaker, was all about.
She has many records, but most of them are soothing music, which doesn't quite suit her taste.
Xu Zhuohua was the president of the dance club in college. She had been studying dance for more than ten years and loved girl group dances the most.
She wanted to give the celebrities of New Sea City a culture shock at the ball, to let them see the passionate and unrestrained girl group dance.
The thought of the bad things she was about to do filled Xu Zhuohua with energy.
I chose a record with the strongest rhythm and started warming up, recalling the dance moves.
Many dance moves require muscle memory, and this body has no dance background, so it can only do some simple movements.
Xu Zhuohua warmed up tirelessly, opening her shoulders and hips.
I didn't feel tired even after jumping all day, but the maids cleaning the yard downstairs got annoyed.
The group whispered amongst themselves as they watched the strange figures projected onto the curtains of the second-floor balcony.
"What is Miss Xu doing in her room? It looks to me like she's summoning a spirit."
Another person said, "It looks just like the shamanistic ritual at the entrance of our village; the movements are really strange."
"I heard that Miss Xu spent six years in a nunnery. You said she might not actually be summoning spirits, right?"
"Who knows? Her maid said it was for preparations for the ball. I've seen the lady dance ballroom dances before, and she doesn't dance like this."
"I've seen her too; Miss Xu seems to have gone mad."
"Is this some kind of summoning ritual?"
The two servants exchanged a glance, deeply agreeing, and left with their brooms, fearing that Xu Zhuohua might attract some evil spirits.
However, instead of attracting anything evil, they attracted Cheng Muyun.
Xu Zhuohua opened the door, sweating profusely, and immediately saw Cheng Muyun in military uniform.
He had broad shoulders, his hat brim pressed against his forehead, and his eyes were bright as he looked at her.
"Huh? Cheng Muyun, you're back?"
Cheng Muyun smiled; only Xu Zhuohua dared to call him by his name directly.
"What are you doing?"
Xu Zhuohua wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Preparing for the ball in seven days."
Cheng Muyun looked Xu Zhuohua up and down. She was barefoot, with white cloth wrapped around her ankles and her waist tightly bound, making her look graceful, neat and clean.
"You can ballroom dance?"
No one teaches these things in a nunnery.
"Won't."
Cheng Muyun took a step into the room. "Ballroom dancing requires a partner, so I'll teach you."
Xu Zhuohua stopped him, saying, "I don't want to dance that; I want to dance something else."
Cheng Muyun took another step inside. "I know a lot of dances, I can teach you."
