Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

Yue Yixing knew that his fifth brother's wife was pretty, but he didn't expect her to be so beautiful when she appeared today. His heart was pounding, and he was so nervous that even if those beautiful eyes were not on him, he didn't know what to do with his two big hands.

Xiang Wanrong and Wu Shuhong were delighted, knowing their son had plenty of ways to deal with it. They suddenly felt more confident, and even their spines straightened up unconsciously. Seeing the two elders standing there in a daze without reacting, they suddenly became anxious and whispered, "Dad, Mom, the two children are still kneeling!"

The Zhenbei Wang and his wife had originally wanted to give them a hard time, but now they no longer had the heart to do so. Look at that girl, even her bowing posture is so graceful, how could they bear it? They then waved their hands and asked them to stand up and talk.

Ruan Chuyin's first visit was filled with anxiety. However, her husband had warned her not to be nervous in front of the elders, so she had to maintain composure and maintain a somewhat normal demeanor.

Xiang Ge had spent his entire life immersed in the imperial court, having seen countless people. This girl, with her clear eyes and a hint of unconcealed timidity, stood erect, her back unbending, no matter how lightly her eyelashes fluttered, revealing her stubborn nature.

Looking at the family heirloom bamboo-jointed glass bracelet on her left wrist, his heart clenched and he began to cough violently. His eyes swept directly towards his daughter, and he sighed inwardly. Xiang Wanrong had been a worry since she was a child. When she was young, she had gone against him and found a gangster to be her princess. Later, not caring about his long life, she married five "desperadoes". Now, she was over fifty years old, and her nine sons were grown up, but she was still so willful and lacked sense of propriety. He and his wife were still alive, but they had already given away the heirloom. Now, if they wanted it back, wouldn't it bring shame to the Zhenbei Palace?

Xiang Wanrong's scalp tingled under her father's gaze. She didn't know how she had offended him again, so she quickly averted her gaze to her mother. Her mother looked much better, and the previous solemnity between her eyebrows was gone.

"Hatsune, right? Wanrong and Shuhong briefly told us a few things about you before. Why don't you introduce yourself to us again?" There were some things that Tong Yuqing wanted to hear the girl say herself.

Introduce yourself? What?

Ruan Chuyin suddenly became nervous. Her life story in this alien world was like a blank slate, unable to withstand scrutiny. Even Xiang Yunchi hadn't told him much. Perhaps the person who knew her best here was Qin Guanzhi. The four elders before her all had sharp eyes, looking far more formidable than Wei Shizhang's father. She was afraid of accidentally revealing the truth and finding it difficult to justify herself, so she looked towards her husband.

Xiang Yunchi's expression darkened. He noticed his grandmother's choice of words. She didn't use the term "parents-in-law" in front of Hatsune. What did that mean?

Catching Little White Rabbit's pleading gaze from the corner of her eye, she temporarily suppressed her displeasure and handed a gift box to her daughter-in-law, replying for her, "Grandmother, there's no rush to discuss this. I'll take her to you and your parents after lunch. This is a set of precious anti-aging products that Hatsune asked Alchemy Saint Qinglian to refine especially for you." She paused, then took Little White Rabbit with her, opened the box, and placed it on the table beside her grandmother. "The Rejuvenating Cream is even more effective than the 100,000 tael bottle of Jade Bone Cream you bought at the Wanxiang Building two years ago. The Rejuvenating Cream works wonders when used with the Rejuvenating Cream. And this bottle of Nourishing Silk Cream can make your hair as black as ink within a year. You and Grandfather can both use it."

Tong Yuqing and Xiang Ge looked up suddenly, their eyes fixed on their grandson like hawks, their emotions clearly fluctuating, and the intensity of their emotions was increasing. What had they heard? Mr. Dansheng Qinglian? Jade Bone Cream, Huan... Huanyan Lu, and some other creams and ointments... Remembering that one hundred thousand taels bottle of Jade Bone Cream from two years ago was only the height of a finger, and after removing the top and bottom of the bottle, only a tiny amount came out. She used it just once, and her facial wrinkles were noticeably reduced. The old man, seeing the effect, shamelessly poured the rest all over her face while she wasn't paying attention, so angry that she went back to her parents' home for two months before returning. A while ago, they heard that another bottle of Jade Bone Cream worth seven hundred thousand taels had been auctioned at the Dayong Ghost Market. Now her grandson was telling her that the two bottles before her were even better than the Jade Bone Cream? How good could that be? A pair of plump, jade-like hands instantly grabbed the wooden box, opened one, and took a deep sniff.

Good stuff! This smells purer and more fragrant than the jade bone paste.

When she looked up again, the old man had already sat down on the other side of the table, caressing her silk cream with a look of curiosity. His face suddenly tensed, and without hesitation, he snatched it away. Smiling, he took Ruan Chuyin's hand and asked, "Is it really from the hand of Master Qinglian, the Alchemy Saint?" Then, suddenly realizing that the question was inappropriate, he changed his tone: "I mean, where did you get it? My dear, it must have cost you a lot of money, right?" Thinking that this girl must have spent a lot of money, his heart sank. Then, realizing that Yun Chi must have paid for it, he calmed down.

"It didn't cost much. I asked him to make it for me. If grandma and grandpa like it, I'll bring more next time." Ruan Chuyin smiled sweetly.

But Xiang Yunchi almost exploded.

Who the hell said these were free? Ji Zhiya accepted two stacks of banknotes from him, okay?

Upon hearing that Little White Rabbit had asked him to refine it, the boy brought over dozens of bottles of Rejuvenating Dew. He then claimed they were gifts for his grandparents and took dozens more bottles and jars home, claiming they were unsuitable for the elderly. He then dragged him out to buy a cartload of high-quality medicinal herbs and an absurdly expensive alchemy furnace. He then specially rented him a room in a high-rise apartment, and waited for several hours before finally returning with a pile of precious anti-aging products claimed to be exclusively for the elderly. It was then that Xiang Yunchi learned that Ji Zhiya was the enigmatic and renowned Alchemy Saint.

When Tong Yuqing heard that the girl knew Mr. Qinglian and her tone sounded very familiar with him, she excitedly jumped up from her chair on the spot, so fast that Xiang Ge couldn't hold her back.

"Do you know Mr. Qinglian? I wonder if he is your relative?"

Ruan Chuyin blushed and answered truthfully: "He is not an old man, he is my husband."

"Husband?" Xiang Wanrong suddenly jumped up and asked hurriedly, "Hatsune, are you married again?"

"No, no, the Dan Sheng is the Fufeng Sword Immortal." Ruan Chuyin waved her hands repeatedly. She hadn't wanted to reveal this identity, having almost forgotten that her mother-in-law had met Ji Zhiya.

But Wu Shuhong and the King of Zhenbei didn't know. They were stunned and couldn't recover. Especially Wu Shuhong, who had heard of the fame of Fufeng Sword Immortal for a long time. He pulled Xiang Wanrong over and asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Isn't it just too much to do? I didn't think about it." There are so many people at home, how can I notify everyone in time? Besides, isn't it time yet?

Tong Yuqing didn't care about the Sword Immortal or not. She only knew that now that this girl had married the Alchemy Sage, her old face was guaranteed to be rejuvenated. The thought of having a constant supply of anti-aging products to apply to her face in the future made her eyes darken with excitement. Where could she find such a wonderful granddaughter-in-law? She took her little hand tightly, tears in her eyes, and said, "Good girl, you're so thoughtful! Grandma loves it!" As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly asked Yue Yixing, who was standing there stupidly, to notify the kitchen to add more dishes.

Yue Yixing was so happy that he listed a series of his favorite dishes to Zhang Zongguan and asked them to take out a jar of Qingyu wine that his grandfather had treasured.

Zhang Mingda looked at the young master in front of him with a cold sweat, and nodded repeatedly. He turned around and immediately ran to the middle hall to ask the prince for confirmation. Even when the princess and the princess got married, the prince was reluctant to drink this green jade wine. It was impossible for him to agree to it today!

The atmosphere in the central hall suddenly became much more harmonious. At least the princess no longer looked dignified, and enthusiastically called her granddaughter-in-law.

Xiang Ge felt relieved a little, but when he thought about how the Zhenbei Palace would be laughed at by the world in the future, his face darkened again.
