Chapter 596: Attending the Family Meeting



The makeup is also very simple and everyday. She only slightly outlined the eyebrows, applied a bean paste-colored lipstick, and used no foundation or blush.

It’s so hot, the more delicate your makeup is, the more blurry it will be.

Yun Mo has delicate features, a slim figure, and her snow-white skin is embellished with pearls that reflect light.

Even the two makeup artists who were used to seeing all kinds of beauties were impressed by Yun Mo's outfit and the noble temperament she exuded.

"Miss, you have a good taste. Although this skirt is simple in style, the effect when worn is amazing."

"The pearl necklace is a great choice, it matches the dress very well, but can you change the bracelet? The red agate is too bright, it kind of steals the show when paired with the pearls."

"No, just wear this."

A white outfit with a string of red coral bracelets is like a touch of red in the snow, both gorgeous and eye-catching. This is exactly the effect she wants.

The red coral bracelet was given to Mrs. Shao by Mr. Shao during his lifetime. Now it is in her hands, plus the pearl necklace given by Mrs. Shao, it is enough to show that she, the eldest daughter, is recognized by both Mrs. Shao and Mr. Shao.

Invisibly, this can be considered as a kind of encouragement, so that those who have doubts about her background will have to think twice before speaking.

After finishing the tidying up, Yun Mo walked out of the cloakroom and came to the bedroom, where she found Mrs. Shao holding a pair of scissors and helping her trim the branches of the jasmine flowers that she had picked yesterday.

"Grandma, when did you arrive? Why didn't you come in?"

Mrs. Shao turned around, looked her up and down, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.

"I've been here for a while, but I didn't go in because I saw you were busy."

Mrs. Shao pointed to the broken branches and leaves on the coffee table and said, "You have no method in arranging flowers. Come to me when you have time and I will teach you. If you do something, do it well. This vase of flowers here does not serve as an embellishment, but makes people laugh."

"Yes, grandma, I will be more careful next time."

It’s not that Yun Mo doesn’t know how to arrange flowers, but she was busy planting the branches of flowers in the second-level space last night. She was also thinking about talking to Shao Lin about the house, so she didn’t pay attention to it. She just found a vase and put the branches of flowers in it.

Seeing that she was willing to learn from him, Mrs. Shao couldn't help but smile.

"This outfit is quite suitable for your age and temperament."

Mrs. Shao looked at the two makeup artists standing behind Yun Mo and said, "You have done a great job. From now on, you will be the ones to design Mo Mo's personal image."

It was a great honor for the two makeup artists to receive recognition and praise from Mrs. Shao. Unfortunately, this outfit was not created by them, so they did not dare to take credit for it.

"Madam, in fact, the dress and jewelry were chosen by the young lady herself. She has good taste."

After hearing what the makeup artist said, Mrs. Shao looked at her granddaughter carefully again.

"It seems that this dress was not chosen by your father and me?"

Yun Mo smiled generously, "Grandma, the dress is my own and the jewelry was given by you. But the two sisters are very professional. They did my hair and makeup."

Mrs. Shao nodded approvingly. "Yes, it's good. It's rare that they are to your liking. From now on, let them take care of your dressing."

"Can."

"Thank you, ma'am, thank you, Miss!"

Both makeup artists were very excited. Being able to become the exclusive makeup artist of the eldest daughter of the Shao family would not only significantly increase their income, but also their fame.

Yun Mo smiled and nodded at the two of them.

Many makeup artists, after gaining a certain level of strength and fame, have high self-esteem, refuse to listen to customers' opinions, and even despise customers' aesthetic tastes. She doesn't want to encounter such a situation.

It takes about ten minutes to walk from Moyuan to the ancestral hall, and there is still half an hour before the family meeting. Mrs. Shao was not in a hurry to take her there. Instead, she slowly put the flowers in the vase and looked around her bedroom and cloakroom.

"Do you like shopping?"

"It's OK, but I don't like going out in the summer. It's too hot."

Mrs. Shao smiled and said, "No wonder you have fair skin. Girls should stay out of the sun. Too much sun will cause spots, and no medicine will work."

"Well, I usually carry an umbrella when I go out."

After looking at her bedroom and cloakroom, Mrs. Shao suddenly thought of something, "Where is Xiao Lingren?"

"Studying in the study."

Mrs. Shao was a little surprised. "Didn't he stop studying a long time ago?"

Yun Mo smiled and said, "He wants to take the self-study exam, so I found some elementary school textbooks and asked him to study on his own first."

Although Lingchuan dropped out of school after junior high school, he had forgotten a lot of knowledge because it had been so long, so he had to start from the beginning.

Mrs. Shao naturally supported her grandson-in-law's desire to obtain a university diploma through self-study.

"It's hard for him to be so motivated. In fact, if he is willing to learn, your father and I can help him find a university to attend."

"Grandma, thank you for your kindness, but let him learn on his own. He has been struggling in society for more than ten years. He may not be able to adapt if he goes back to school."

"Yes, do we need to help Xiao Ling find some good tutors?"

"Not for now. What he needs now is to make up for the basic cultural knowledge from elementary school to high school. I can help him with that."

Mrs. Shao took her hand with concern and said, "You have to study too. Isn't it too hard? Peking University is the best university in the country, and the requirements for students are also high. It is not easy to study well."

Yun Mo blinked playfully, "Grandma, you don't believe me? Do you want me to file a military complaint for you?"

Mrs. Shao scolded, "That's not necessary. Grandma believes that you can study well. In fact, compared with excellent grades, grandma hopes that you can be safe and happy. You are a girl, and the inheritance of the family business will not fall on you. Just live your life happily and easily."

Yun Mo couldn't help laughing, "Yeah, I thought so too!"

"Ma'am, it's almost time."

Hearing Sister Hua's reminder, Madam Shao nodded, turned to Yun Mo and said, "Let's go."

"Um."

There was still plenty of time, and the grandparents were in no hurry. They talked as they walked, and with a servant holding an umbrella beside them, it wasn't too hot.

"Momo, the family meeting is a tradition passed down from our ancestors. The elders of the clan will all attend. The older generation has conservative and old-fashioned ideas, and they still follow the old traditions in their words and deeds. If they say something you don't like, ignore them and don't argue with them.

Their seniority is there, even if what you say is right, you are still wrong. Don't worry, your father and I are here, and no one will bully you."
