She took it and looked at it in her hand. It was made of thin fabric that didn't look like a silk scarf or a shawl.
"Brother Qi, help me pick up my hair." He sat up straight and adjusted the fabric. Then he passed it through his neck, tied it from the back of his head to the top of his head, and adjusted the knot.
"This is a headband." The goods they imported were all popular in the 1980s, but they didn't expect that they would be produced now.
I think even fashion has a transition period.
Looking at the transformed Xia Youyou, Cao An nodded and praised her generously. "My sister is so pretty!"
Xiao Hai took a bite of the wax apple and gave it two thumbs up, saying vaguely: "Our sister is really pretty!"
The little girl stood up, found a red wool coat from the space and put it on.
The fashionable girl from the 1980s movie appeared in front of them.
"How is it? Does it look good?" She was a bit short, and the woolen coat was a medium-length style, which was just right for her. She had a maroon headband on her head, tied in a beautiful knot on top of her head. Her smooth black hair finally stopped sliding down behind her ears.
Xia Youyou likes it very much.
"I'll wear this from now on." Just tie it tighter so it doesn't come loose.
"I think it's okay!" Cao An continued to take out hairbands of various colors from the bag, "See which ones you like."
She undressed and sat down again, then took off her hairband and took out a red one.
She pulled all her hair to the right side, braided it into a big braid with a headband, tied it tightly with a hair tie, and shook it.
"Finally, it won't break up!" This is such a pleasant surprise!
Qi Siling put his arm around her waist, took the braid from her side, and examined it carefully.
"I'll tie it up for you later."
"Okay." She picked out a few of her favorite colors. "These are enough. I'll wear them in rotation." If she wore them to school, many people would definitely want them.
"Pick a few for Sister Naru." Naru would definitely look good in them. She was known for her avant-garde style. "And Chen Caiyun." After all, she ate with them every day. It was just a few headbands.
I don’t know why, but Chen Caiyun always looks at her with a strange look in her eyes. She doesn’t say much and just goes out to eat with Sister Na Ru every day.
Cao An brought out some samples of the small commodities he had recently bought. "As you said, these are all imported small commodities and accessories. We also brought some smuggled radios and clothes. How do you sell them?"
"For the girls' accessories, go find Ziqiu and Zidong over there. For other small toys, you can ask Zibo and the others to take a few out to play with."
Xia Youyou let her hair down and tied it back with a headband. "I don't need them to sell it. I just take it out for a walk when I have nothing to do. If someone asks, I just say I bought it at Huada Supermarket. It'll give them some pocket money."
Thinking of something, he pulled the hairband to the end of his hair, rolled it up from the inside, hid the ends of his hair behind his head, and then tied the rest of the hairband to the top of his head.
Xia Youyou's long hair suddenly became short hair.
Qi Siling tidied up her messy hair, thinking that this little headband had transformed the girl's appearance considerably.
"There are so many ways to wear this headband!" Xiao Hai didn't even bother to listen to her, his attention was all on her hands fiddling with the headband.
"Yeah, you can also tie a bow at the back of your head, which looks better than a hairpin."
"You can take some goods to the train station or the factory, hang around for a while, and see if any vendors come to you to ask about the source of goods. Then tell them about Huaxiao Supermarket. This will attract customers to the small supermarket, and the goods will sell faster."
She picked up the earrings on Cao An's hand and looked at them.
"I want to get my ears pierced, too."
Qi Siling quickly hugged her back to his arms, "Dear, you don't need to wear these earrings." He had seen Zi Qiu and Zi Dong pierce each other's ears, and the thought of his precious child going through that pain made him feel heartbroken. "Piercing your ears hurts."
Xia Youyou was just thinking about it, not really wanting to get it done. If possible, perhaps someone could manufacture those ear clips, saving her the pain of piercing her ears. Besides, these days, piercing your ears uses embroidery needles, and if you get it infected, that's no fun. Even if she had medicine, she didn't want to go through that pain.
I nodded and agreed to him, and stopped thinking about ear piercing.
Seeing the radio on the table, she picked it up and adjusted it. It was all chirping, probably because they were indoors and the antenna couldn't pick up the signal.
Thinking of her recent masterpiece, she took out four black blocks from the space and handed one to each of them. She taught them how to turn on the machine, picked up their own and went outside.
He closed the door, walked a long way, then picked it up, put it to his mouth and said, "Hey, hey, hey."
There was no response, but the door at the back opened.
Xia Youyou turned around and smiled at the three people who looked surprised, tilting her head and smiling proudly. "How is it?"
She had only come up with this gadget when she was thinking about developing a mobile phone. By her time, it had long since disappeared, replaced by communicators. And communicators required network connectivity, which this gadget didn't.
Although it's similar to a communicator, it has a limited range and lacks privacy. It's quite useful for everyday use, for example, if you're looking at the distance between Anhai Restaurant and the guesthouse, you don't have to run around calling people. You can just speak into the black box and the other end will know.
"What's this?"
The three of them looked surprised and came over to ask her with things.
"This is called a walkie-talkie. It can be used for conversations within two kilometers, but it's not very private." He pressed the button on the side of the walkie-talkie and put it to his mouth: "Brother Xiao Hai, go over there and call Zi Bo and the others over. We have to give them a chance to earn some pocket money." He released his fingers and looked at Xiao Hai.
Xiao Hai imitated her and pressed the button awkwardly, "Okay."
Xia Youyou pressed the button, "Brother Xiao Hai, I want to say: Got it, over."
"Got it! Over!" He trotted out with the walkie-talkie, talking on it as he ran. His excited voice rang out simultaneously on the walkie-talkies in the hands of the three people still in the yard.
"Hello, hello, can you hear me? I'm at the entrance of the alley. Over."
"Hey, I'm already knocking on the door! over"
"Can't you hear? Why don't you speak? Over"
"The door is open, Zibo, go call your brothers and sisters over, over"
…
Xiao Hai always had to say something about everything he did, stubbornly wanting to get their response.
Cao An picked it up and put it to his mouth, "Shut up!"
I remembered that I hadn’t said anything yet, so I pressed “over” again.
Xia Youyou laughed and fell into Qi Siling's arms. Xiao Hai was simply the source of her happiness.
"Ah! I can really hear it. 'Brother Xiao Hai, let me play.' 'Call them over first!'" The intercom could be heard with Xiao Hai's increasingly excited voice, and the sound of Zi Bo curiously fighting with him for it.
"Over" was heard half a minute later before the belated closing remarks were remembered.
Qi Siling held the person in her arms tightly as she walked towards the main hall. She picked up the intercom and said, "Uncle Zi, call my brothers and sisters. I have something to discuss." She then looked at the person in her arms and said, "Why did you think of doing this? Are you already giving birth?"
