Chapter 209 Cheongsam
That day, Ayun asked Lin Qiu to go shopping at Tianhong Shopping Center.
"Today is not the weekend, how come you have time to ask me out shopping?" Lin Qiu was holding Ayun's hand, and he turned his head to look at her curiously.
Ayun works in the post office, and it was with her help that Lin Qiu was able to successfully rent a newsstand in the early years.
Ah Yun did not hide anything from Lin Qiu, his good friend for more than ten years, and said with gritted teeth: "It's all because of Ah Xing, that unreliable guy. Not only did he drink too much last night, he also took a cold shower. As a result, he woke up with diarrhea this morning. I had no choice but to take leave to take care of him."
"Is Ah Xing okay?"
"What could possibly happen to him?" Ayun waved his hand. "He was taken to the community clinic and given two bottles of IV drips. The doctor said there was nothing serious."
"That's good. Spring is the peak season for flu, so we all need to be careful."
"That's right! Everyone knows this, but he's like a fool, daring to take a cold shower in this weather." Ah Yun gloated a little, "Now my parents-in-law are pointing at him and scolding him. I guess he'll drink as much cold tea as he wants these two days."
Lin Qiu has never been able to tolerate bitter medicinal tea, so he couldn't help but feel sympathy for Ah Xing.
"Okay, forget about him, let's go shopping today!" Ah Yun pulled Lin Qiu into the shopping center, "There are many spring styles now, let's see if there is anything suitable."
"I haven't bought any clothes this spring, I must take a good look!" Lin Qiu also became interested.
Most women like shopping.
Or to put it another way, most women like shopping.
Lin Qiu and Ayun went from store to store. When they saw something they liked, they would try it on, look at it in the mirror, and ask their friends for comments before deciding whether to buy it.
Ayun is not the kind of person who worries too much. As long as he likes something and the price is not too out of line, he will immediately make the decision to buy it.
Lin Qiu would consider many things, including style, fabric, and workmanship. She would often compare prices from several stores before deciding on a product.
The two of them walked along the way, and the number of shopping bags in their hands gradually increased, mainly Ayun's.
"Aqiu, look, there's a shop selling cheongsams over there. Let's go in and take a look!" Ayun pointed at a newly opened shop with some surprise.
Lin Qiu looked in the direction that Ayun pointed, and saw the cheongsams hanging in the window swaying gracefully under the light.
She suddenly remembered that last time at the airport, her daughter saw someone else wearing cheongsam and suggested that she try it.
So he followed Ayun into the cheongsam shop with great interest.
Lin Qiu touched them gently with her fingers and felt that the material of each cheongsam was different. Although the styles looked similar, upon closer inspection, each one had its own characteristics, especially in the details.
"Aqiu, do you want to try this one?" Ayun picked up a cheongsam and walked towards Lin Qiu.
The color of this cheongsam is very eye-catching, it is the green color of tender buds. There are a few clusters of blooming orchids printed on the cheongsam, which is very fresh and elegant.
"Isn't the color a little too tender?" Lin Qiu took it and held it in front of him to compare.
"No, this color suits you very well with your fair skin." Ayun gave advice seriously.
The clerk next to him also said: "This color really suits you, you can try it."
The more Lin Qiu looked at the color, the more she liked it. So she took the cheongsam and went to the fitting room to change into it, then walked out with some trepidation.
Under the warm light, the woman in cheongsam seemed a little restrained. The cheongsam was green as tender buds, with orchids blooming on the chest, waist and hem. She looked gentle, elegant, graceful, and had a faint fragrance, as if carrying the charm of the misty Jiangnan region.
"How is it?" Lin Qiu looked at Ayun.
Ayun's eyes were full of amazement. He looked at Lin Qiu carefully. His straightforward gaze made Lin Qiu shrink a little.
"What's going on?" Lin Qiu raised his voice.
"Amazing!" Ayun gave a thumbs up, "Aqiu, you really look good in a cheongsam. Look at your curves. I'm so envious."
After saying that, he even wiped Lin Qiu's waist and said, "Aren is still lucky!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lin Qiu slapped her dirty hands away.
"What did I say wrong?" Ayun looked innocent.
Although I knew that Aqiu had maintained a good figure, I didn't expect that she would be so charming and charming after wearing cheongsam.
Lin Qiu rolled his eyes at her and stood in front of the floor-length mirror, looking around.
I have to say that Ayun has a very good vision.
"Buy it!" Ayun came over, "This cheongsam looks like it was tailor-made for you."
Lin Qiu nodded, went to the fitting room to change into her own clothes, and then bought the cheongsam.
After leaving the cheongsam shop, Ah Yun suddenly thought: "Cheongsam looks better with curly hair. Let's go get our hair permed!"
It’s not like Lin Qiu had never had curly hair before, but as time went on, the hair stopped being curly after it grew out, so after a few trims it became long straight hair again.
"Do you really want to perm your hair?" Lin Qiu was not unintentional, but perming hair would take a lot of effort.
"Perm, let's both get a perm. It's still early before the kids get out of school! We don't have anything to do now." Ayun took Lin Qiu and walked directly to the hair salon they usually went to.
After entering the hair salon, Ayun greeted the proprietress familiarly and asked her to arrange two skilled craftsmen to perm her and Lin Qiu's hair.
The proprietress called the boss out directly, and the two of them personally took charge of serving the old customers.
After washing her hair, the lady boss asked Lin Qiu: "What kind of perm do you want?"
Lin Qiu looked at her face in the mirror. She actually didn't know which type of curly hair was suitable for her, so she decided to listen to the professionals. "You decide!"
The lady boss carefully examined Lin Qiu's face and said, "Just give it a big curl! I guarantee it will suit you."
Then, we sat there for more than five hours, and even had to ask the boss's wife to order dinner over the phone.
Lin Qiu's butt was sore from sitting so much that he could only stand up and walk around from time to time.
The same goes for Ayun.
After a long while, the proprietress finally took Lin Qiu's hair off.
The permed hair was much shorter, and the soft curls swayed gently by the ears, exuding a lazy temperament. The ends of the hair are curled into a small arc, and a slight movement creates an alluring charm.
Ah Yun's hair was also undone. She came over to take a look and then praised him generously: "Ah Qiu, you look like a big star in Hong Kong! You should style your hair more often."
Lin Qiu's ears felt a little hot because of what she said. He stared at the familiar face in the mirror, which was more charming than before.
She touched her hair on both sides uncomfortably, and the person in the mirror became more charming.
Lin Qiu stared at the mirror intently, then smiled faintly at Ayun, "The store you recommended is really good!"
"Of course!" Ah Yun answered rudely, and then whispered in Lin Qiu's ear in a somewhat obscene tone, "Ah Ren will be back soon, right? Do you believe that Ah Ren will turn into a wolf and eat you alive when he sees your curly hair and the cheongsam you just bought?"
Lin Qiu pushed her aside without hesitation and went to pay the bill.
"Hahahahahahahahahaha" Ayun laughed even more happily.
