"Hello, Young Madam Gu." Madam Wang approached with Wang Jieyu, greeting Su Xiaofeng proactively: "The Young Madam’s skin is so nice. I wonder if Madam Gu has any skincare tips to share with us, if it’s possible." Thɪs chapter is updated by novel-fire.ɴet
Xiaofeng’s skin didn’t even need makeup. It was exceptionally fair and tender, like a freshly peeled egg, making her look nothing like a married woman with children, but more like a youthful maiden.
Xiaofeng chuckled: "Madam Wang is flattering me. I don’t have any special methods, maybe it’s just because I’ve drunk a lot of spring water since childhood, so my skin might be a bit better than others."
Anyway, everyone said she came from the countryside, now let them be envious of the kids growing up in the countryside.
Madam Wang didn’t expect Xiaofeng to mention her time in the countryside. For most people, that would be an experience they’d not even want to bring up.
"Young Madam Gu is truly witty," Madam Wang smiled lightly: "This spring water is indeed better than ordinary water, but to say it beautifies, I don’t believe it. In truth, Young Madam is naturally beautiful, no matter the skincare routine, your skin is enviable."
For women who’ve married and given birth, their skin tends to worsen, and rarely could anyone’s skin remain as it was before marriage.
For women of major families like them, skincare is a lifelong learning. Whoever takes care of it well, it’s something that definitely gains face.
"Thank you for your compliment, Madam Wang." Xiaofeng just smiled at Madam Wang’s flattery.
Although she hadn’t learned lady’s etiquette, she understood that on occasions like today, everyone spoke polite words, and no one would delve into the truths within them.
"Come, this way please." Madam Wang still held some favorable impressions towards Xiaofeng. Despite growing up in an unfavorable place, she was born here—the Young Lady of Quan Family, Young Madam of the Gu Family. Among the young ladies present, none had a status as noble as hers.
"Yuer, you’re a classmate of Young Madam Gu, the task of hosting Young Madam Gu is up to you. You’re about the same age, you’ll have plenty of topics in common." Madam Wang turned to Wang Jieyu.
Wang Jieyu acknowledged gracefully: "Mom, don’t worry, I’ll definitely make sure Young Madam Gu is well entertained."
"Today is your grandfather’s grand birthday, it’s a good day. You’re the eldest granddaughter of the Wang Family, don’t make any mistakes and let others mock us."
"Yes." Though Wang Jieyu wasn’t fond of Su Xiaofeng, she knew, on an occasion like today, as the hostess, she couldn’t do much against Su Xiaofeng.
Wang Jieyu flashed a bright smile: "Xiaofeng, about the last exam incident, indeed it was my fault initially, and your later measures were justified. You must have done well in the exam."
Wang Jieyu appeared as if letting bygones be bygones.
"I can’t say for sure, we’ll know once the results are out. What happened at the last exam, did you do something to me?" Xiaofeng played dumb since the other person brought it up.
Wang Jieyu almost wanted to gnaw her teeth, that Su Xiaofeng acting deaf and dumb was truly annoying.
"Nothing, I was just curious about your results. Among the few exams that followed at school, your performance was consistently top in the grade, I think if you maintain that score, you’re sure to get into Dihua or Dibei."
"Whichever school it is, I feel no regrets as long as I tried my best." Xiaofeng didn’t care much about getting in or not.
It’d be best if she got in, but if she didn’t due to a bad day, it wouldn’t mean anything.
"Jieyu, I was looking for you, wondering where you went, turns out you were hiding here." A tall thin young man came over looking for Wang Jieyu.
He was tall, with an air somewhat cold.
"Cousin, you’re back." Wang Jieyu was delighted to see the person coming.
"Today’s grandpa’s big birthday, I had to make it back." The young man named Lei Xiaojun was Wang Lao’s grandson.
"You have guests here, I wanted you to join me in celebrating grandpa’s birthday." Lei Xiaojun glanced at Xiaofeng, his eyes lit up.
The young lady before him wasn’t breathtakingly beautiful, but her serene temperament made her stand out.
How to put it, he just felt this woman was different.
"Cousin, let me introduce you, this is Young Madam Gu, also the long-lost Young Lady of Quan Family." Wang Jieyu felt upset seeing her cousin fixated on Su Xiaofeng.
This Su Xiaofeng was truly a vixen, with the ability to captivate men’s attention.
"So you’re Young Madam Gu, I’ve heard of your reputation. Hello, I’m Lei Xiaojun." Lei Xiaojun extended his hand to shake with Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng smiled at him: "Hello, Young Master Lei. Jieyu, since you have guests, you should go ahead."
Wang Jieyu took Lei Xiaojun’s arm and left.
"Cousin, stop looking, she’s gone." Wang Jieyu was a bit angry seeing Lei Xiaojun’s eyes fixed on Su Xiaofeng’s back without blinking.
"Jieyu, this Su Xiaofeng is quite interesting, the Young Madam of Gu Family?" So, she’s Gu Yecheng’s little wife.
"No use finding her interesting, she’s already married."
Lei Xiaojun just smiled at these words, what about being married, and more so, being Gu Yecheng’s little wife, made him even more eager to try.
From childhood, the person he disliked the most was Gu Yecheng.
