Du Ziqiang entered the room and greeted Song Jingchuan and Cheng Chunkui.
Cheng Xiaokui waved to Du Ziqiang and said, "I heard you took my sister to the police station to report the case. I'm fine. Could you go and tell the police station to close the case? I'm not missing. Thank you."
Du Ziqiang said, "What's the trouble? I'm just glad you're alright. Your sister was so worried about you all day. She cried so many times, her eyes looked like rotten peaches!"
Cheng Qiuqiu glared at Du Ziqiang, "Pah, you're the one who looks like a rotten peach! Go to the police station and tell them!"
Du Ziqiang obeyed the order and quickly ran off, riding his bicycle to the police station to close the case.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "I'm tired after a long day. I'm going back to my room to rest."
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Second... no, big sister, I'll go with you! I'll get you water to wash your face and feet, so you can wash up and go to sleep."
As she spoke, she helped Cheng Xiaokui walk out, the two sisters holding hands.
This was the secret code between the two sisters. If Cheng Qiu Kui said something wrong, Cheng Xiao Kui would usually squeeze Cheng Qiu Kui's hand to prevent Cheng Qiu Kui from being hit by Song Wen Hui for saying something wrong.
So when Cheng Xiao Kui squeezed Cheng Qiu Kui's hand, Cheng Qiu Kui knew that she was not mistaken, the person in front of her was not her eldest sister, but her second sister!
Cheng Xiao Kui finally returned to her room.
Cheng Qiu Kui happily hugged Cheng Xiao Kui and said, "Second Sister, Second Sister, it's you! It's actually you! Hahaha, how did you get out? Did you and Eldest Sister switch us out?"
Cheng Xiao Kui hurriedly pulled Cheng Qiu Kui aside and said, "Keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear. Tell me, how did you figure out it was me? Don't I look like your older sister? Doesn't my drawing look like her?"
She glanced at the mirror in the room again in disbelief, and no matter how she looked at it, she felt that her drawing looked quite like Cheng Chun Kui.
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Don't even mention that you cut your hair, when I first came in, I really didn't recognize you as Second Sister."
However, the more I look at it, the stranger it seems, because your aura is different from your older sister's, and your older sister's frame is slightly larger than yours.
Although my older sister has lost weight these past few days, a person's bone structure doesn't change.
I was just about to ask you something when you pinched my hand. I knew something was wrong, and I was certain it was you, Second Sister!
Cheng Xiao Kui turned around and stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself carefully again.
She asked, "Do you think if it gets light and the aunties and grandmas see me, they'll recognize me as Xiao Kui instead of Chun Kui?"
Cheng Qiu Kui looked at it carefully and said, "That's possible. Although your features are very similar to your older sister's, if you look closely, someone who knows you very well can still tell the subtle differences."
However, if you don't look closely and only glance at it from a distance, you absolutely cannot tell the difference.
Cheng Xiao Kui thought for a moment and said, "What about those cosmetics that Du Ziqiang bought for you? They were from Friendship Store. Why don't you let your second sister use them?"
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Okay, you wait here, I'll go back to the courtyard house and get it for you!"
After she finished speaking, she hurriedly ran out of the house and went back to her own courtyard to get cosmetics for Cheng Xiao Kui.
These cosmetics were quite expensive, so she didn't dare take them back to her in-laws' house and instead kept them in her own courtyard.
Cheng Xiao Kui had taught her that there is always a generation gap between the older generation's thinking and theirs, so if you want peace and tranquility in the home, you must respect each other's habits.
The elderly don't know how to use cosmetics, don't understand why they need to wear makeup, and don't understand why cosmetics are so expensive.
There's no need to educate the elderly or tell them that the prices are beyond their psychological tolerance. They can just put the items away and use them themselves.
Cheng Qiuqiu thought her second sister's method was quite good, as it avoided a lot of trouble.
Her courtyard house wasn't too far from Cheng Xiao Kui's; by bicycle, it would only take about 20 minutes round trip.
Cheng Xiao Kui lay on the bed, stretched her muscles and bones, poured herself a basin of water, and washed her face thoroughly.
Just as she was carefully wiping her face with a towel, Cheng Qiuqiu rushed back with her cosmetics.
Cheng Qiuqiu has a complete set of cosmetics, all of which Du Ziqiang bought for her at a high price from Friendship Department Store and were imported from abroad.
Cheng Xiaokui studied the cosmetics. The types of cosmetics were similar to those of later cosmetics, and most of the cosmetics in this era used natural substances.
While looking at the cosmetics, she said to Cheng Qiuqiu, "Qiuqiu, could you go to the kitchen and get me some high-gluten flour?"
Cheng Qiuqiu asked in surprise, "Second sister, what do you need Fuqiang powder for?"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Get some more oil and honey! Oh, and did you bring the paints for Dongkui's paintings? Bring those to me so I can use them too."
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "Dong Kui brought his paints, but he hasn't been in the mood to paint these past few days, so he just left them in the kitchen. I'll go find them for you."
She quickly went to the kitchen and brought Cheng Xiao Kui everything she wanted.
Cheng Xiao Kui used a little high-gluten flour, added a little pigment, and honey to make a small dough ball. She compared the color of the dough with her hand and found it was similar to the color of her skin.
She carefully stuck the small dough balls onto her face, trying to make her features as close as possible to Cheng Chun Kui's, striving to be exactly the same.
Cheng Qiu Kui was completely dumbfounded; she had never imagined that flour could be used as cosmetics.
She asked, "Second sister, what did you do? You even put honey in the flour?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "If you put honey in the flour, it won't dry out or crack, and it will feel soft and natural on your face. Wait a minute, then look at me again and see if I look like Cheng Chun Kui?"
She filled in the areas on her face that needed filling with small dough balls, then applied foundation, powder, and then drew her eyebrows and eyeshadow.
Cheng Qiu Kui was completely dumbfounded. Pointing at Cheng Xiao Kui, she said, "Second sister, where did you learn this? You...you look exactly like eldest sister now. What is this? Is it some kind of lost art of disguise?"
Cheng Xiao Kui combed her hair in front of the mirror.
Not to mention her current outfit, she's most satisfied with it; it's exactly the same as Cheng Chun Kui's!
She made a V-sign with two fingers in front of the mirror and said, "That's right, this is the long-lost art of disguise! Okra, how's your second sister's skill? Tell me, isn't she cool?"
Cheng Qiu Kui nodded repeatedly as if she had seen a god, "So handsome, so handsome, Second Sister, you are the most handsome! I have never seen such a good disguise, Second Sister, where did you learn this?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I just figured it out by myself. I was watching people make dough figurines, and then I figured this should work!"
The main problem is that she can't explain to Cheng Qiuqiu how amazing the beauty influencer's disguise skills are; she's only learned a little bit of the basics.
But these are enough!
Now she's bursting with confidence. With this disguised face, she doesn't believe anyone can say she's not Cheng Chun Kui.
He's just trying to fool the emperor, haha!
Your Majesty, tremble!
