Sister Liu got a facial today. Although it was incredibly expensive, it really made her look beautiful. Tomorrow is very important for her, so Sister Liu gritted her teeth and went ahead with the procedure.
After the massage and facial, Ms. Liu felt relaxed all over. Her facial muscles were lifted, her skin was smooth and tender, and she looked very energetic.
When it came time to pay the bill, her heart was ripped out again, and Sister Liu cursed Wu Zhiqi, that heartless boss, in her heart once more.
After getting her facial, Sister Liu went shopping and happily went home.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, a group of elderly women chatting and eating sunflower seeds surrounded Sister Liu.
"My goodness! I didn't even recognize you when you came from so far away. It really is you, Sister Liu! Did you eat a child? How come you look so much younger overnight?" the neighbor exclaimed dramatically.
Sister Liu came home late last night and left early this morning, so none of the neighbors saw her new hairstyle.
"Her face is as smooth as a peeled egg, how come it's so tender? How did she do that?" A neighbor touched Sister Liu's face, feeling how smooth it was, and then touched his own dry, calloused hands.
"I'm going over there tomorrow. It's my wedding after all. I got my hair and face done." No matter how old a woman is, she likes to be complimented on looking young and beautiful. At that moment, she feels that the money was well spent.
"Wow, she looks so beautiful! She looks like she's in her fifties. Where did you get her hair done? Was it expensive?" The elderly ladies in the neighborhood were all tempted by Sister Liu's transformation.
"It's a bit expensive, a set costs over a thousand," Sister Liu said modestly. Actually, a set costs over ten thousand. To be honest, it's a bit too high-profile. She knows these old ladies. They can grit their teeth and try it if it costs a hundred or two, but over a thousand is enough for a family's living expenses for two months. They would definitely not be willing to spend that much.
Several elderly women smacked their teeth upon hearing the price.
"Oh my god, that's a rip-off! What kind of service costs over a thousand? That's too expensive!"
"It was quite expensive. My heart skipped a beat when I paid, and I'm still reeling from the shock," said Sister Liu, clutching her chest with a pained expression.
"This is your wedding, a big event. It's okay to spend a little money. It's a once-in-a-lifetime event, so don't worry about it," the old ladies reassured Sister Liu.
"The flowers are already spent, it's too late to regret it. I'll go back and tidy up now, you guys can chat for a while."
"Do you need our help tomorrow?" the neighbors asked enthusiastically.
Sister Liu: "No need for any formalities, I'll just go there myself."
"That's true. At this age, if you're together, you should just live your life together and not waste money on useless things."
Sister Liu went back inside, and the neighbors continued their gossip, talking about this family and that family. Before long, five or six people had become infamous and their reputations were ruined.
When Cao Jun and Liang Lijun arrived, it was just getting dark. Liang Lijun had been beaten by her neighbors the day before, and she didn't want to see them today, so she was a little late.
Sister Liu is making a quilt and hasn't eaten dinner yet.
The two people pushed open the door and went inside.
Sister Liu... was in such a hurry to make quilts when she got back that she forgot to lock the door.
"Mom, you got your hair permed? I must say, it looks really good! And your face, you've had it done too, it's so shiny, you look so young!" Liang Lijun said with delight. It seemed her mother-in-law had taken her words to heart and had actually gone to get herself done.
"Mom, it's so late, don't sit up too long, it'll hurt your eyes," Cao Jun said with concern.
Without even lifting her eyelids, Sister Liu continued working, "What are you doing here? You were beaten yesterday, and now you've come to demand an explanation?"
