Early in the morning that day, Zhou Yunwan dressed herself up as usual, applied some cold cream, and prepared to go out to the educated youth camp for dinner.
Before I could spread the paste completely, there was a knock on the door.
This is Gao Menglan’s exclusive wake-up service.
Zhou Yunwan went over to open the door as if nothing had happened. When she met the gaze of the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family outside the door, she said in a familiar voice, "Comrade Gao is still sleeping."
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family glanced at Gao Menglan, who was still sleeping soundly, and then looked at Zhou Yunwan, who was dressed neatly in front of her. She couldn't help but think how nice it would be if the third brother had been peeking at Zhou Yunwan at that time.
Zhou Yunwan is gentle and easy to talk to. You can tell at first glance that she is not as mean and take advantage as Gao Menglan. If that were the case, there probably wouldn’t be so many problems now.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh. She didn't even bother to look at Gao Menglan, and turned her gaze to Zhou Yunwan next to her. She was applying something on her face. After applying it, her already fair face became even more tender and translucent.
Seeing such a miraculous effect, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family opened her eyes wide and asked in disbelief: "Comrade Zhou, what are you applying?"
Zhou Yunwan casually replied, "Valve cream."
...
...
vanishing cream? The name sounded familiar. She seemed to have heard the young wives in the village say that girls in the city liked to use this. It was useful and could make the skin smooth and delicate, but it was extremely expensive, costing only a few dollars for a small box.
But Zhou Yunwan didn't seem to feel sorry at all when using it, even though there was such a big lump on the back of her hand.
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family felt that she was a spendthrift and didn't know how to save money, but she couldn't help but look at her with envy.
After looking at it for a long while, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family tentatively asked, "Comrade Zhou, can you give it to me? I haven't seen it yet."
Hearing this, Zhou Yunwan turned her head and looked over. Seeing that she was looking at her eagerly, she hesitated for a while, then thought that the Liu family had been taking good care of her these days and there was no need to be so stingy. She gave her the lump of paste on the back of her hand and scooped out another small lump from the box.
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family did not expect her to be so generous. After thanking her, she couldn't wait to imitate Zhou Yunwan's actions and carefully applied the cream on her face.
But since she had never used skin care products, her fingers involuntarily curled up in a slightly funny way.
While applying the lotion, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family looked at Zhou Yunwan and accidentally caught a glimpse of the various bottles and jars in her box. The packaging looked very familiar. After thinking for a while, she remembered that every time Zhou Yunwan took a bath and washed her hair, she would always hold a few bottles in her arms.
She had wanted to ask for a long time, but had never found the opportunity, so she asked curiously, "What are those?"
Zhou Yunwan followed her gaze to her box. Thinking of the principle of not showing off one's wealth, she calmly closed the box and replied softly, "For washing my hair and taking a bath."
"You city people are so particular. I, a country boy, have never seen such a thing."
Zhou Yunwan responded patiently: "It's nothing special, just like soap beans, but the packaging is different."
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family smacked her lips and said, "I'm afraid it's not cheap."
There was a hint of sourness in her inquiring tone, and Zhou Yunwan immediately felt a strange feeling in her heart. She didn't respond and changed the subject, "Then I'll leave first. I have to hurry to have breakfast."
Seeing that she didn't want to talk anymore, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family closed her mouth consciously and said with a smile: "Then drive slowly on the road."
After saying that, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family touched her face after applying the vanishing cream. Before, she always felt that her skin was dry. Even her husband said that every time he kissed her face, it was like kissing the dry mud in the ground, which made her angry and embarrassed.
And now her face was as if moistened by rain, moist and smooth, a feeling she had never experienced before!
No wonder those young wives ask their husbands to bring them a box when they go to the city. She used to think it was troublesome and was afraid that her husband would scold her for spending money indiscriminately, so she never mentioned it. Now she wishes she could buy a box too.
After using good things, who would want to treat themselves badly?
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family decided to ask someone to bring her a box of milk the next time. As time goes by, her skin will definitely get better and better. Then she will see if her man will dislike her.
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh at the thought of deepening the relationship between husband and wife. Soon, she thought of the bottles and jars in Zhou Yunwan's box. If she used the same ones as her, would she be as beautiful as her?
But now that Zhou Yunwan had left, she didn't ask what those things were called. Then she thought of her slightly impatient expression just now. If she asked again later, the other party might not tell her.
Thinking of this, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family decided to go and see what those bottles and jars looked like and what they were called, write them down and then ask someone to buy them.
She's just looking at it, and she's not stealing it, so there shouldn't be any problem.
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family thought about it and walked towards the box. However, just as she opened the zipper of the box a little bit, she heard a noise behind her. She thought it was Zhou Yunwan who had come back, and she was so scared that her legs almost went weak and she fell to the ground.
She turned her head suddenly and saw that it was Gao Menglan who turned over and opened her eyes soon after.
Gao Menglan didn't expect that the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family would be in her room. She woke up from her doze and stood up and asked loudly, "What are you doing in my room?"
The second daughter-in-law of the Liu family pretended to be calm and explained hesitantly: "I came to wake you up."
Gao Menglan frowned when she saw her guilty face, but she couldn't find anything wrong, so she had to give up. However, she was disturbed from her sweet dream, and she said unhappily, "You could have just knocked on the door to wake me up, why did you come in?"
From her reaction, the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family guessed that the other party probably did not see her rummaging through Zhou Yunwan's box, and she breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was still pounding.
After a long while, she finally said, "I knocked on the door, and it was Comrade Zhou who opened the door for me. She just left."
After hearing this, Gao Menglan didn't know what to say and got up reluctantly.
Before Zhou Yunwan went to the educated youth center, she went to the only supply and marketing cooperative in the village to make a phone call. There were a lot of people in the supply and marketing cooperative these days, and they were all people from the crew queuing up to call their families to report their safety.
There is only so much free time in a day, and the supply and marketing cooperative closes in the afternoon. Zhou Yunwan, the heroine with the most scenes, has no time to make a phone call.
After finally waiting for the most popular time period to pass, Zhou Yunwan thought about getting up early and grabbing a seat. If she was lucky, she might be able to call Shen Yanli before breakfast.
She thought she was quite smart, but she didn't expect that there were two other people as smart as her.
Zhou Yunwan had no choice but to wait in line until they finished their phone call before it was finally her turn.
After the operator's professional and cold voice passed, Zhou Yunwan finally heard the familiar and gentle male voice.
