Because there are so many people coming today, there are more tables for the banquet than when my eldest and third brother’s in-laws came to visit.
Luo Qiao got up and tidied herself up. She applied homemade moisturizing cream on her face, and her skin became delicate, fair, tender and smooth. She braided her hair into a fishbone braid.
She wore a small red short-sleeved top, black straight pants, and black half-covered leather sandals. She stood there gracefully, making people unable to take their eyes off her.
When Wu Yunmei and Luo Jialin came over, their eyes lit up. Wu Yunmei circled around Luo Qiao and said, "Qiaoqiao, you are so beautiful dressed like this. You will make your brother-in-law look dumbfounded."
Luo Jialin also agreed: "Our Qiaoqiao is good-looking. When she dresses like this, she looks like a lady from an aristocratic family."
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "I am naturally beautiful."
The aunt and sister-in-law were laughing and joking together.
Wu Yunmei looked at Luo Qiao's hair and said, "This hair is combed so beautifully."
Luo Qiao asked Wu Yunmei to sit down and picked up the comb on the table: "Sister-in-law, I will comb your hair again."
Luo Qiao was very deft and she quickly tied up Wu Yunmei's hair. Then she found a big hairpin she had and cut a piece of purple veil to make a rose shape.
I found some burnt plastic and dripped it on a hairpin to cover the finished rose, which became a beautiful silk flower. I clipped it directly on my sister-in-law's hair. It was really unique and added a bit of charm.
Luo Jialin looked at her sister-in-law's hair and said, "Sister-in-law, it looks so good. If I didn't have short hair, I would have asked Qiaoqiao to do my hair for me."
After a while, I heard my uncle and my younger uncle's families coming back downstairs. My younger cousin ran upstairs soon after. When she saw my cousin and her sister-in-law's hairstyles, she clamored to have her hair done up as well: "This is so beautiful, I want one too, I want one too."
Gu Hongjuan, who was following behind, said, "You're not afraid of being laughed at."
Luo Jiayue said: "The people who helped are in the yard below, and the rest are all family members. Who would laugh at me?"
Gu Hongjuan looked at Luo Qiao: "Lu Yichen will be fascinated by this outfit."
Luo Jiayue hit back: "If my brother-in-law is fascinated by my sister Qiaoqiao's outfit, then he is too superficial."
Luo Jiayue poked her head out and stuck out her tongue, then chuckled twice: "I was wrong, is that not enough?"
After chatting for a while, Gu Hongjuan said, "You two sisters-in-law can chat here. I'll go downstairs to help."
Soon the two cousins came up. When they saw their hairstyles, they were envious. Luo Qiao also re-combed the hairstyle of the eldest cousin who had long hair, and her temperament immediately changed.
After combing her hair, Luo Jiayue went to show off to her mother. After all, she is still a little girl.
At around nine o'clock, Yang Jiancheng and his wife arrived. The old couple of the Luo family welcomed them in happily. Luo Daoren said, "Actually, I should have come to visit you two a long time ago, but Qiaoqiao said that she would meet us when she had the chance."
Yang Jiancheng smiled and said, "Qiaoqiao is right. This is the opportunity."
Zhou Guifang poured two cups of tea and brought them over: "Master Qiaoqiao, Master's Wife, have some tea."
Then he stood up and brought the cut watermelon: "Try this watermelon, it's grown by my old man himself."
Feng Shumin smiled and said, "Qiaoqiao Grandma, stop busying yourself. Sit down and take a rest. Let's talk."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Zhou Guifang sat down and took Feng Shumin's hand: "Qiaoqiao, thanks to you for meeting her and teaching her so many skills. I am really grateful."
Feng Shumin looked at Zhou Guifang and said, "We are lucky to have met Qiaoqiao. She has been with us all those years. She is our granddaughter."
Zhou Guifang nodded: "Yes, Qiaoqiao is a sentimental girl."
At this time, Luo Qiao, who came down from upstairs, heard her grandmother's words and said with a smile: "This is our destined fate. We can help each other, right, Master's wife?"
