Seven o'clock.

Mr. and Mrs. Xing arrived at the dining table on time, and the whole family was gathered together.

Pei Youyou yawned frequently, clearly very sleepy, and would occasionally glare at Xing Zhengyu with a pitiful look out of the corner of her eye.

Under the table, Xing Zhengyu held her hand, stroking her fingers gently to comfort her.

The Pei family doesn't have a rule about getting up early. As long as Pei Youyou doesn't go to random places or make friends indiscriminately, she can do whatever she wants.

Luo Huai was different. If she got up late, Pei's parents would say that it was unacceptable for a young lady to stay in bed too long.

She has developed the habit of waking up early; no matter how late she goes to bed, she will definitely wake up around six o'clock.

Luo Huai was unsure whether to feel fortunate or not.

“Youyou,” Xing’s mother suddenly spoke.

Pei Youyou sat up straight and called out, "Mom."

"Didn't you sleep well last night? You can go back to sleep after breakfast, and we can get the marriage certificate this afternoon." Just when Pei Youyou thought that Xing's mother was going to relax the rules, she didn't quite catch her breath. Xing's mother's real words were yet to come.

"If I get enough rest, I won't be yawning like this every morning."

It seems that no one can shake the Xing family's rule of having breakfast at seven in the morning.

Pei Youyou forced a smile and said, "I know."

Luo Huai silently sipped her seafood porridge, taking small sips. Suddenly, a gaze from the head of the table turned to her. She paused, looked up, put down her spoon, and awaited instructions.

She was already used to this at the Pei family's house.

Luo Huai arrived at the dining table earlier than the others. She was dressed elegantly and gently, her hair was neatly combed, and her light makeup made her look even more radiant. She ate with grace.

Xing's mother couldn't find a single fault with it.

In comparison, Pei Youyou is not as refined and elegant as Luo Huai.

However, Xing's mother simply couldn't bring herself to like Luo Huai, her daughter-in-law.

She has never liked overly beautiful people.

Luo Huai is well-behaved, refined, and beautiful.

The woman that Old Xing couldn't marry back then, his son ended up marrying someone even better.

This made her feel disgusted.

Seeing that Xing's mother had looked away, Luo Huai continued to drink her porridge with her spoon.

Father Xing slowly said, "You two brothers should think carefully about what we talked about in the study yesterday."

“Especially you, Yanzhao.” When facing his own son, Xing’s father’s expression would become even more serious.

"Hmm." Xing Yanzhao responded casually, his eyes glancing intentionally or unintentionally at the porridge in Luo Huai's bowl. Was the white porridge really that delicious?

He reluctantly scooped up a large spoonful and ate it, but it was still the same. It was not as good as a bowl of clear soup noodles with two fried eggs.

Xing's father noticed that his son kept staring at Luo Huai and then suddenly became attracted to her beauty. He wondered if his son was doing it on purpose. If so, there was still hope.

……

Pei Youyou's clothes and jewelry were all neatly arranged in the dressing room last night, and they are all on display. She can take whatever she wants to wear.

We're going to get our marriage certificate later, and the photos will be taken on the spot, so I'll try to wear light colors.

A white dress also needs the addition of jewelry.

Pei Youyou first found the emerald jewelry set worth 300 million, a complete set including a necklace, earrings, bracelet, and ring, and immediately put it on.

It looks good, complements the skin tone, and especially makes you look good.

However, getting a marriage certificate is a joyous occasion, and green is considered unlucky.

She had no choice but to take it off and put on a ruby ​​necklace instead.

Unfortunately, this jewelry is from last year.

The ruby ​​necklace that was launched this fall was pre-ordered and sold out in its entirety. There are still two sets available on the market, one large and one small. Not to mention the outstanding design, the gemstones are a rare pigeon blood red.

Speaking of rubies, she thought of the ruby ​​ring Luo Huai wore last night, which looked quite ordinary.

The designs of the rings are always the same, but I didn't really look at the rubies inside closely last night.

There were no new jewelry pieces in the dowry sent by the Pei family, and Luo Huai herself probably couldn't afford them; they were mostly counterfeit.

I didn't see Luo Huai Dai this morning.

"Why aren't you wearing it again?" Xing Yanzhao picked up the jewelry he bought yesterday once more. The pigeon blood red jewelry stood out brilliantly in his palm. He glanced at the jewelry on the wall. There weren't many sets of jewelry, and he didn't have many clothes either.

The clothes and jewelry they wore together took up less than a third of the dressing room.

“It’s too expensive to have breakfast.” Luo Huai took out the dress she was going to wear today from the wardrobe: a simple square-neck knitted long dress, lacking a belt.

The long dress already has a cinched waist design, so just find a thin one.

Luo Huai remembered that she had a woven hemp rope belt with light-colored butterflies on it. Just as her eyes swept over it, a large hand took it and handed it to her before she could.

"Thank you." After a pause, Luo Huai remembered that he always reminded her to greet people, and added, "Brother Zhao."

Xing Yanzhao nodded.

He is sometimes taciturn.

Luo Huai went to change her clothes. She added a belt to her long knitted dress, with the extra small pieces hanging down the side of the dress, making it more lively.

Xing Yanzhao was still wearing a dark suit. He never seemed to like wearing a jacket, habitually draping it over his arm, only wearing a shirt and vest, and his tie was neatly tied.

He's too serious for his age.

Xing Yanzhao reached out and tugged at his tie, a hint of impatience in his eyes, but he didn't dare to tug any further.

This is more like him.

"Is it beautiful?" The man looked closer, his gaze lingering on the man.

Luo Huai was taken aback, belatedly realizing that she had been staring at the person. She hurriedly looked away and put the ruby ​​jewelry on herself.

The moment she put it on, she felt a sense of solemnity.

As if knowing what she was thinking, Xing Yanzhao said, "Things are meant to be used. If you don't use them, they're useless. Besides, today is a special day for getting our marriage certificate."

Luo Huai put it on with peace of mind.

Today's outfit is impossible to hide.

The necklace, earrings, bracelet, and ring all accentuated her fair and rosy complexion, making her even more elegant and captivating.

So much so that when the Xing family first saw her, they noticed her dignified beauty before even noticing the jewelry she wore.

Pei Youyou is the same.

Upon seeing the jewelry on Luo Huai's body, his expression darkened further.

Xing Yuru bluntly and naively said, "Both my second sister-in-law and my eldest sister-in-law are wearing rubies."

Luo Huai must have done it on purpose! Pei Youyou was furious.

Before Xing Yuru could finish speaking, she said, "This set of yours is the newest one this year, while yours is from last year. The gemstones on this set are bigger than those on yours."

She leaned closer for a look: "It's still pigeon blood red!"

What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener. Pei Youyou was practically grinding her teeth in frustration. Which side was Xing Yurou on anyway?

She forced a smile: "Where did you buy it? You're sure you didn't get scammed; it doesn't look real."

She never called Luo Huai "sister-in-law".

Luo Huai: "Yes..."

Xing Yanzhao: "I bought it. Who would dare to sell counterfeit Xing family products?"

Of course I wouldn't dare.

Generally, when the Xing family wants something, the salesperson will bring them the best and most genuine items. Someone will already be there with a POS machine, and the Xing family only needs to nod, and the money will be credited to their account instantly.

Pei Youyou felt a chill in her heart. Xing Zhengyu was away because his father had called him away. She took a small step back, but that didn't make it seem like she was afraid of a peasant.

No.

Instead, she took a step forward.

"I thought you bought it yourself, but someone else bought it for you." That contemptuous look made it seem like Luo Huai had gotten it by selling himself.

Luo Huai never engaged in verbal sparring with her.

Xing Yanzhao spoke his mind: "Xing Zhengyu didn't buy it for you, are you jealous?"

In the phrase.

Pei Youyou smiled charmingly: "What's so great about your husband buying it? You have to buy it yourself."

Xing Yanzhao clicked his tongue and turned to Luo Huai, saying, "It's just that her husband didn't buy it for her."

Cricket playing directly in front of you.

Pei Youyou glared angrily.

Xing Yanzhao raised his chin: "Besides, did you buy it with your own money? Have you ever worked at Pei's? It was all bought for you by the people around you. What gives you the nerve?"

"Let's go." He tilted his head at Luo Huai and walked ahead.

Luo Huai followed, somewhat bewildered.

Just as she stepped out the door, Xing Yuru's puzzled voice came from behind her: "Second sister-in-law, aren't you wearing it anymore?"

"What's it to you!" Pei Youyou lost her temper and snapped at Xing Yurou.
