Chapter 14: Updo
April 16th.
It was only five o'clock in the morning, and it was still gray outside the window, so Guan Lei started to get dressed quickly.
She thought for a moment, shook Guan Youshuang, who was still immersed in her dream, and said softly: "Sister, get up quickly, we are going to the county to get our hair done."
Previous life , she had her hair styled in town, but the man’s skills were poor and he was reluctant to apply glue, so halfway through the toast, her hair style was already limp.
In this life, of course she has to choose a more advanced place.
Guan Youshuang turned over and continued to sleep.
"Sister?"
"Forget it, leave her alone, I won't be able to catch the bus later." Zhang Caihe opened the door curtain, handed the bowl over, and whispered, "Hurry up and put it away Eat these two poached eggs”
“Two?”
"Yes, today is your big day, so you have to eat two. It means a good thing."
"Okay, thank you, Mom."
"Put on your new clothes after eating. , it’s hard to change after your hair is done. Put on another piece of clothing outside. The bus is not clean, so don’t make the new clothes dirty.”
“Okay.” >*
The weather is very good today. It is only after eight o'clock, and the sun is shining red on the entire earth.
Guan Youshuang opened her sleepy eyes and heard the noise outside. She opened the curtains and looked into the yard, and saw her father Guan Xingguo standing by the gate posting couplets.
He put the couplets on the table, picked up the old broom, dipped it in batter, and carefully brushed the couplets.
Every step is done very carefully.
The yard was swept clean and the clothesline was removed.
I don't know when, a large silver-gray speaker was hung on the front door, and long wires were connected crookedly to the plug-in board on the steps of the main house.
Oh, today is a happy day for her and her sister.
Thinking of how my sister had been tossing and turning and couldn't sleep last night, she seemed much calmer.
Looking at the empty bed next to her, she sighed: My sister thinks of her future life so beautifully!
She got up slowly, walked to the table, picked up the thermos bottle and poured a glass of water. After drinking it, she started to wash up.
When she went to the county before, she bought a complete set of cosmetics. Just when she was thinking about what kind of makeup she would apply later, Liang Yuting ran in happily.
"Huh? Why did you wash your face?"
"Well, I just got up."
"The bride-to-be is coming soon, you are so uninviting Don't worry." Liang Yuting scolded and quickly helped her pack her things, "You'll need this mirror later, right? And this vase, why are there still white flowers? Throw it away."
With that said, Liang Yuting took out the white rose.
Guan Youshuang bought this flower in the town two days ago. She is not as superstitious as Liang Yuting, but she is still quite touched to see her best friend thinking about her so much.
"Hurry up and wash your hair. After that, we will go to town to tie our hair. You wait, I will go to our house to pick up the bicycle and take you there."
With that, Liang Yuting got ready. Go out.
Guan Youshuang grabbed her arm and said with a smile: "No need to go, you can help me."
"Huh? I don't know how."
"Then Just tie my hair into a ponytail or braid it like you."
"Youshuang! Are you awake? Today is the most important day in your life!" You can’t do anything carelessly.”
“It doesn’t matter, to me, you are the important person in my life. I like to let you help me.”
Guan Youshuang said this. Speaking from the bottom of her heart, the only thing she wanted to cherish was this friend. "You tie my hair and put on my makeup."
"But I'm not good at painting."
"It doesn't matter, as long as it's drawn by you, I like it."
The girl was also touched. She quickly washed her hands and helped her best friend to do it. hair.
Liang Yuting looks like a girl next door. Looking at her facial features alone, she doesn’t seem to be very outstanding, but when put together, she looks great.
She is the kind of pretty girl who is very attractive.
Ever since she dated her boyfriend, she has been particularly fond of tinkering with herself. She wants to try out all kinds of hairstyles and makeup on newspapers and advertising posters. Over time, her makeup skills are still good.
Guan Youshuang sat on the chair and let her tinker.

At the same time.
Tongxian Trendy Hair Salon.
Guan Lei sat by the big mirror, looking around at her bridal hairstyle.
She wears a high bun on her head, which is surrounded by a circle of delicate curls. At the top of the bun, two long red hairpins are inserted, and long hairpins hang down. tassels studded with shiny imitation beads.
There are some red artificial flowers pinned to the root of the hair on the right side.
This is the most popular hairstyle this year.
“Mom, how are you?”
“It looks good, it looks good, it’s money well spent.”
A tight-fitting suit with big waves and bright red hair The boss lady with lips took a puff of cigarette, put out the cigarette butt, and said: "As for makeup, how about using the most popular peach blossom makeup from the coast?"
"Okay."
The boss lady took it She started applying makeup and applied base makeup on Guan Lei skillfully.
Zhang Caihe said with a smile: "With your skills, the store should be opened in the center of the county. It is too remote here."
The two of them came to the county too early today, and many stores were not open. They searched all over the county before finding this store.
Although it doesn’t look very upscale and the signboard outside is temporarily hung, we can only give it a try now.
I didn’t expect that this landlady turned out to be a master from the coastal area!
The proprietress said with a smile: "There is currently no suitable shop in the center. This store is for sale urgently, so I took over it first."
She pointed to the gray wall. "We haven't had time to decorate yet."
"Then what was this store doing before?"
"It was a chess and card room, selling some drinks and snacks. I heard that the business was good. It's just that a few gangsters swindled nearly a hundred yuan, and the old man who was looking after the store committed suicide, so his son transferred the store urgently. "What happened?" Guan Lei interrupted. One sentence.
“It is said that three gangsters came to the chess and card room to play cards and drink that night. Later, when they were checking out, they said that their wallet had been stolen, and then they left the ID card of one of them with the old man who was looking after the store, and promised to The money will be sent the next day.
“But the next day, the old man waited for a long time, but there was no sign of them. The old man took his ID card to the public security bureau to check. It was someone else who had lost the ID card and it had been canceled long ago. ”
"Look up, I'm going to put on eyeliner." The boss's wife continued, "The old man's son was not filial to begin with, so he beat his father several times with a stick in anger. The old man drank rat poison that day. The son was afraid that others would gossip. It was urgent. He left the store and went to work elsewhere. "What a crime!" Zhang Caihe exclaimed, "Have the police caught those gangsters?"
"No. The fake ID card and nothing else were left behind. We don’t have cameras at key intersections like those along the coast.”
“Sigh, even if this kind of person doesn’t die, he will be punished by God sooner or later.” Zhang Caihe said angrily. , "Any woman who marries such a person will have a lifetime of misfortune."
