The next day, Ning Jing went to town with Fu Hongxing.
She first went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought the two basins with red double happiness symbols printed on them, then used a net bag given to her by the cooperative to carry them.
As soon as they came out, Ning Jing shoved the washbasin into Fu Hongxing's hands and followed him.
After several turns, you'll see an old man in a white coat squatting at the entrance of an alley, carrying a shoulder pole with hairdressing tools such as scissors and razors.
Ning Jing saw Fu Hongxing approach the old man with great familiarity and greet him.
The old man didn't waste any words and simply took a small stool out of his carrying pole.
Fu Hongxing, who was over 1.8 meters tall, sat down directly on the small stool, sitting obediently like a child.
The old man took out a piece of white cloth from his carrying pole, wrapped it around Fu Hongxing's neck, and then started snipping away with the scissors.
With lightning speed, he cut Fu Hongxing's long hair back to a buzz cut and carefully shaved his sideburns and the back of his head with a razor.
Without even washing it, they simply took the cloth off, shook it to the side, and that was it.
Fu Hongxing stood up, rubbed his head, and looked quite satisfied.
Then he gestured for Ningjing to sit down so the master could cut her hair.
Ning Jing quickly shook her head and said no, joking. Although the master chef's skills were not bad, there was definitely a generation gap between the two of them.
Her hair is neither here nor there. Even if she were to get it cut, it would probably be a hairstyle similar to a man's, making her look like a tomboy. She doesn't want that!
She was simply curious about what haircuts were like here.
To my surprise, there was no shop at all, just a barber's pole, and there wasn't even hot water.
After cutting it, I went home and washed it myself.
Fu Hongxing frowned slightly, but seeing that Ning Jing insisted on not cutting her hair, he didn't try to persuade her anymore. Instead, he took out 2 mao (0.2 yuan) and gave it to the old man.
After the two had walked away, Fu Hongxing asked, puzzled, "Didn't you want to come get your hair cut together?"
Ning Jing glared at him and replied, "I clearly said we'd come together, but I didn't say we'd get our hair cut together."
Besides, my hair is fine as it is, why would I spend money to get it cut?
After speaking, she tidied her hair.
When Fu Hongxing heard her say that, she was speechless, but after thinking about it, it seemed that she really hadn't said she wanted a haircut.
Just as the two were talking and preparing to go back...
Then I heard a girl's voice behind me.
"Officer Fu?"
Fu Hongxing and Ning Jing turned around at the same time and saw two girls standing not far away. One of them, a girl with a round face, was glaring at them with an unhappy expression, while the other girl had tears in her eyes and looked somewhat familiar.
Ning Jing clearly sensed that the two girls harbored deep hostility towards her.
He glanced sideways at Fu Hongxing, his lips not moving, and muttered softly, "Where did you get these two unwanted suitors?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Hongxing was both amused and exasperated.
The two of them were whispering to each other when the round-faced girl across from them, who looked unhappy, ran over angrily.
Pointing at Ning Jing, he loudly questioned Fu Hongxing: "Officer Fu, who is she? How can you be so intimate with her? How can you do this to Yu Ling?"
EMMMMM……?
Ning Jing was initially confused, then she laughed—a laugh of exasperation.
However, before Ning Jing could act, Fu Hongxing made his move.
He frowned, reached out and pulled Ning Jing to his side, then casually slapped away the finger pointing at her.
