The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Kong Zhiyou pressed her lips together, slightly embarrassed, and said, "Monarch Lu Xiang, please don’t tease me. I just got married last month. My husband’s family name is Chen, so how could I still be called a maiden? Let alone a distinguished guest."

Speaking of which, she owed her thanks to Monarch Lu Xiang standing before her.

Last year, her first time visiting was simply to ask for a pleasing makeup look to leave a good impression when meeting her grandmother, who had returned from a trip. Surprisingly, her grandmother, who usually favored another granddaughter, had rare words of praise about her fresh and neat appearance and even asked her to stay longer for some conversation.

Afterward, when her father set his sights on the Chen family’s son as a prospective son-in-law and discussed it with her grandmother, the latter directly proposed her name.

Although the Chen family couldn’t be considered affluent, their father and son spanned two generations of scholars. While Father Chen had not yet passed the scholarly examination to become a "Juren," her husband had already become a scholar at the age of fifteen, with limitless future prospects.

For Kong Zhiyou, this was a rare and fortunate match. At the end of the day, it was all thanks to Shu Yu’s help.

Unfortunately, she later left. Zhiyou had visited Yiren Pavilion a few times, but the selection of clothing was limited, and no one was there to assist with styling. After a few attempts, she stopped coming.

Last month, when she got married, she couldn’t help but think how, if Shu Yu hadn’t been exiled, her bridal makeup would surely have dazzled everyone.

Who would have thought that, upon meeting again, so much had changed? She was now married, and the once boss Lu Sanzhu had become Monarch Lu Xiang. Despite admiring her talents, Zhiyou no longer dared to ask her for assistance.

Thinking of this, Kong Zhiyou still felt a hint of regret.

She brushed away the scatter of thoughts in her mind and asked again, "Monarch Lu Xiang, what did you say earlier that you wanted to buy?"

Shu Yu glanced at her tied-up hair and snapped back to reality.
