Chapter 12 Beauty and Skin Care
The empty family compound is naturally uninhabitable, and since Su Nanzhi and Qin Lie have not yet officially married, it is not appropriate for them to live in the same house.
Su Nanzhi took the letter of introduction that Gu Xizhou had given her after seeing her just now, and came to the guesthouse which was half an hour's walk from the family compound.
Perhaps because there was a large military unit stationed there, the guesthouse was very large, a four-story building, and there were many people coming in and out.
However, the attitude of the waiter was not very good.
"A single room costs 5 yuan a day. Do you have the money?"
The waitress was a young girl with a ponytail. She sat on the chair without moving her butt. She looked Su Nanzhi up and down, with no concealment of the contempt and disgust on her face.
Su Nanzhi looked at her clothes that were full of patches and could understand the waiter's attitude.
After all, she doesn't look like someone with money in her pocket.
She understands it, but she won't tolerate it.
"Anyone can work in a guesthouse now?" Su Nanzhi looked the waiter up and down. "If you can't understand what we're saying, get me someone who can."
The waiter threw away the nail clippers in his hand, stood up and glared at Su Nanzhi, "Who are you talking about?"
"I see you're just a poor fellow. Can you afford the rent for a single room?"
Su Nanzhi glanced at her with a half-smile and shouted, "Who are you calling poor? You're stirring up class conflicts. Are you a capitalist? You keep calling them poor."
Her words immediately attracted the attention of passers-by.
"When I checked in yesterday, the waiter had eyes that weren't eyes and a nose that wasn't a nose."
"She's a waitress at a guesthouse. Look how cocky she is."
"She has a capitalist style."
…
Hearing the discussions of the people around him, the waiter turned pale and immediately started to defend himself.
"You...what nonsense are you talking about? My ancestors for three generations have all been proletarians with a solid foundation."
Su Nanzhi sneered, "My father is a martyr, but isn't he still a poor man in front of a proletarian like you?"
People of this generation always have the highest respect for the martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the country. When they heard Su Nanzhi say that her father was a martyr, they immediately helped Su Nanzhi to criticize the waiter in the guesthouse.
Finally, the dispute was settled after the leader of the guesthouse came and apologized to Su Nanzhi.
Su Nanzhi took a few bath tickets to the bathhouse as an apology, and then went to her room with satisfaction.
Watching her leave, the waiter's face turned pale with anger. He said indignantly, "I'm not wrong. Does she look like she can afford a single room?"
"I only said a few words, why should I apologize to this poor guy and pay for the shower ticket?"
The female leader beside her could no longer hold back and rolled her eyes when she heard this.
"Zhou Yinghong, if you can't control your mouth, you can quit your temporary job."
"You still look down on me. My fiancé is at least a deputy battalion commander."
"You are so capable, why don't you find a military officer fiancé instead of coming to our guesthouse."
Now you need a letter of introduction to stay in a guesthouse. Su Nanzhi's letter of introduction said that the person she was visiting was her fiancé, who was also a deputy battalion commander.
Otherwise, the leaders of the guesthouse would not have given in to Su Nanzhi so quickly.
Zhou Yinghong was both angry and furious when she heard the last sentence.
But on second thought, Su Nanzhi looks like a country girl, but she can still find a partner with the deputy battalion commander.
After all, Zhou Yinghong is from a county town and only graduated from junior high school.
How did I end up going on a blind date with a divorced man with three children?
Even if this divorced man is the director of a meat processing plant, she will become a stepmother if she marries him.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yinghong lost the mood to continue working. She asked a colleague to cover her shift and went to find a matchmaker to cancel tomorrow's blind date.
If she continued working in the guesthouse for a while, she wouldn't believe that she couldn't find a husband who was an officer.
***
After Su Nanzhi put the package into the room, she came out with clean clothes and planned to go to the bathhouse.
The bathhouse is right next to the guesthouse. Because it was daytime and summer, there were not many people in the bathhouse.
In summer, most people choose to take a shower at home.
Although Su Nanzhi wiped her body during the few days she stayed in the hospital, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
Because she was the only one in the bathhouse, she didn't need to bring any soap to cover up her tracks.
Stretch out your hand and there will be more space in your palm for the supermarket's big-name shower gel.
She has been feeling very depressed these days.
It was an hour later when Su Nanzhi finished taking a shower.
After washing her shower and hair, she saw that there was no one in the bathhouse, so she simply wet the towel with the spiritual spring water in the space and wiped her body again.
After using the spiritual spring water for only a few days, she could feel that her originally yellowish skin had become much whiter and her complexion was much brighter than before.
This further proved her guess that the spiritual spring water could really beautify the skin. Even the calluses on her hands from years of hard work had disappeared.
Before changing into clean patched clothes, Su Nanzhi quickly applied a yellowish foundation to her face and exposed skin while no one was around, making her skin look sallow. Then she carried the washbasin back to the guesthouse.
She would not think that just because she had lived one more life, people of this era were blind and stupid and could not see how strange it was that a person could change so dramatically in just a few days.
However, she would not let herself be in the "Minion" state all the time. She just put on makeup to make the whitening effect brought by the spiritual spring look more gradual.
After coming back from showering, Zhou Yinghong, who had just been away, was sitting at the reception desk.
Seeing her, Zhou Yinghong gave her a smug smile.
Although she was a little confused, Su Nanzhi still gave her a sweet smile, "Comrade Zhou, thank you for the bath ticket. If you feel itchy in the future, you can notify me again. I still need the bath ticket."
After saying this, Su Nanzhi turned around and went upstairs to her room.
Zhou Yinghong wanted to curse, but didn't want to give anyone shower tickets anymore: ...
Su Nanzhi returned to the room, locked the door, drew the curtains, and slipped into the space.
There was electricity in the space, and Su Nanzhi used a hair dryer to dry her messy hair, and then she came out of the space.
When she came out of the space, she was still the poor, pale and skinny little Su Nanzhi.
After taking a shower and blowing her hair, Su Nanzhi felt a little hungry.
Although there were a lot of delicious food in the space supermarket, Qin Lie's house was robbed, so she had better spend the allowance she got from Qin Lie a few days ago and the money she got from Zhao Xue today quickly.
Thinking of this, she got up and went out, heading straight for the state-owned hotel.
Looking at Su Nanzhi's leaving back, Zhou Yinghong curled her lips.
A country girl, just because she has a fiancé who is a deputy battalion commander, doesn't know how to behave herself and runs out every day, not afraid of being kidnapped by kidnappers.
But she is so ugly that only a blind person can appreciate her.
I just wonder what this country girl’s fiancé looks like?
