Yan Jingwan: "How can it be inconvenient? Don't visiting relatives usually stay in guesthouses? Besides, where else can we stay if not in a guesthouse? I live in the art troupe's dormitory, and it's just a single room. There's no way three people can stay in it."
"How about Jingshu and Xiaotao stay at my house?" Cui Jing suggested, "I have two empty rooms upstairs and downstairs, just enough for the two of you to stay together."
"The conditions at the guesthouse are not good. You have come to Songjiang with great difficulty. Your Uncle Liang and I must help your family take good care of you."
"Will this be too much trouble for you?" Yan Jingshu said, looking at Yan Jingwan.
Yan Jingwan didn't react. Cui Jing smiled and said, "It's not a bother, it's not a bother. Two more people is just a matter of adding two more pairs of chopsticks."
Yan Jingshu looked away, smiled, took Cui Jing's arm, and said sweetly, "Then I'm sorry to bother you."
"It's hard to say if I'm bothering you or not. We're all family." Cui Jing said with a smile, then turned to look at Yan Jingwan, "Jingwan, come here for dinner tonight."
Yan Jingwan was about to open her mouth to refuse when Cui Jing continued, "You'll have to eat in the cafeteria if you're alone. Why don't you come over and eat with us? It'll be more lively with more people. I'll bring Xuezhi over tonight so you can get to know each other."
Seeing this, Yan Jingwan could no longer refuse and agreed with a smile.
Cui Jing was very happy to see this and said, "Ever since Xuezhi got married, you and Xuezhi haven't been able to talk much together. I understand that you single girls have nothing to talk about with unmarried women. Fortunately, you are married now. You will have more common topics in the future and can spend more time together."
Yan Jingwan responded with a "yes", but didn't intend to really listen to her.
After the luggage was carried upstairs, Yan Jingshu was not in a hurry to pack up. She asked to go and see the art troupe where Yan Jingwan was.
Cui Jing immediately smiled and said, "Come on. This is your first time here, so let your sister take you around."
Yan Jingwan didn't refuse. She responded and turned to walk out.
Yan Jingshu quickly caught up: "Sister, wait for me."
After leaving Teacher Liang's house, Yan Jingshu ran a few steps and caught up with Yan Jingwan. She snorted and said, "I thought you were going to give me the cold shoulder, but I didn't expect you to actually agree to it."
"No need." Yan Jingwan said.
Yan Jingwan felt it was unnecessary to be angry with someone who would only stay here for three days at most.
After all, the wedding is the day after tomorrow, and being angry with her will only affect her mood for the wedding.
Just ignore it and send them away after the wedding.
Yan Jingwan took big steps and walked fast, so Yan Jingshu had a hard time keeping up with her.
She had been on the train for three days in a row and was now feeling exhausted. She really didn't have the energy to compete with Yan Jingwan.
She frowned and couldn't help but say, "Can you not walk so fast? I can't keep up."
Yan Jingwan: "If you can't keep up, forget it. I don't want to take you around at all."
"If you don't want to go shopping, then don't go shopping." Yan Jingshu stopped immediately.
"Whatever you want."
After Yan Jingwan finished speaking, she strode away.
Seeing that she really left without even looking back, Yan Jingshu stamped her feet in anger, "You're really leaving?!"
Yan Jingwan ignored her.
Yan Jingshu had no choice but to jog to catch up with her: "Your temper has been getting worse and worse in the two years since you came here. I really don't know how my brother-in-law fell in love with you."
Yan Jingwan announced her patience was over: "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush and talk nonsense here."
"Yan Jingwan, you're so rude." Yan Jingshu said angrily, "I advise you to be nicer to me. When I came here, I was carrying the gift money that my father gave you! If you keep talking so harshly, I won't give it to you."
Yan Jingwan: "Give it to me or not, I don't need his money."
Yan Jingshu stared at Yan Jingwan with eyes wide open in disbelief. She had never thought that Yan Jingwan didn't care about money. You know, that gift money was not a small amount.
"Don't regret it!" Yan Jingshu threatened.
"Regret is the most meaningless emotion. I never regret the decisions I have made." Yan Jingwan responded indifferently.
Yan Jingshu was almost angered to death by Yan Jingwan.
She pointed at Yan Jingwan but couldn't utter a word. Finally, she waved her hand and turned to walk in the other direction.
Yan Jingwan glanced at Yan Jingshu's back, looked away expressionlessly, and continued walking towards the art troupe.
She was not worried that Yan Jingshu would get lost in this unfamiliar place.
Anyway, I'm in the family compound, so I won't get lost.
*
Yan Jingshu was quite well behaved after coming to the family compound. Apart from saying some sarcastic words every day, she didn't do anything else.
Everything went smoothly until the wedding day of September 6th.
Early that morning, Yan Jingshu followed Cui Jing to the dormitory where Yan Jingwan lived. Yan Jingwan had already changed into her wedding clothes, a red and black Lenin-style suit with a large lapel and double-breasted buttons. She wore a belt around her waist to create a slender waistline, and paired it with black pants. The whole set of clothes combined the festive atmosphere of marriage with the unique efficiency and boldness of female cadres. It was beautiful and in line with the characteristics of the times, and did not look out of place at all.
She wore almost no makeup, except for using a charcoal pencil to darken her eyebrows along their shape, and using red paper to pout her lips. However, she was naturally beautiful, and even a little makeup was enough to make her look eye-catching.
Yan Jingshu looked at Yan Jingwan's face and couldn't tell whether she felt more envy or jealousy.
As half-sisters, they share half the same blood, but her appearance can only be described as pretty.
Their father Yan Cheng was as handsome as a male star in pictorials, which not only attracted her mother, but also made her mother marry him without hesitation even though she knew that he had a wife and daughter in his hometown.
She inherited her tall figure and smooth oval face from her father, but one of the most important senses of the human body, the eyes, which are known as the windows to the soul, came from her mother.
Yan Jingwan had the same beautiful peach blossom eyes as her father, which were full of affection even when she wasn't smiling. However, her eyes were double-eyed and slightly puffy. If she didn't get enough rest, they would be swollen and unbearable the next day.
Yan Jingwan's nose did not inherit her father's tall and straight nose, but her nose bridge is of moderate height, and the tip of her nose is slightly upturned. The slight hump not only does not make her nose look rough, but adds a unique charm to her.
On the other hand, although she inherited her father's high nose bridge, the high nose bridge also made her upper face look a bit masculine, and her overall temperament became more masculine and less gentle.
The direct result is that her appearance conflicts with the life path her mother planned for her since she was a child.
She couldn't take the path of the gentle and weak little white flower, but the long-term influence of her surroundings and eyes bound her tightly, making it difficult for her to change and take another path.
She was awake and in pain, and could only think of one word: 'trapping herself in a cocoon'.
The boomerang her mother had thrown ten years ago had spun in the long river of time for ten years before finally stabbing into her body.
