The appointed day soon arrived, and there was a knock on the door of the Xiao family's yard early in the morning.
Xiao Fangchi rubbed his hazy eyes and ran to open the door, tapping his cloth shoes.
"Who is it?" As soon as he opened it, he was met with Xiao Rong's face. Xiao Fangchi instantly woke up and rubbed the back of his head, questioning: "Xiao Rong? Is there something urgent that brings you to my house so early in the morning?"
"Yes, I'm looking for Su Zhiqing." Xiao Rong stood on tiptoe and looked into the yard. Seeing that the yard was empty and there was no one in sight, she coughed guiltily. She knew she was too early.
But she really couldn't wait any longer, because she was going on a blind date with Li Guangde today. She was so nervous that she couldn't sleep the whole night. She only took a nap until dawn, but woke up soon after.
Lying on the bed with nothing to do, he simply put on his clothes and shoes and walked towards Xiao Fangyun's house.
"Su Zhiqing?" Xiao Fangchi frowned. When did Xiao Rong and Su Nan know each other? How could he not know?
"Yes, Brother Fang Chi, can you let me go in and wait?" Xiao Rong pointed into the yard.
Xiao Fangchi came to his senses and quickly made way.
"They haven't woken up yet. Do you want me to knock on the door and call them? They sleep in the same room." Xiao Fangchi moved a chair from the main room and placed it under the eaves, motioning Xiao Rong to sit down.
Xiao Rong waved her hands repeatedly and said she couldn't say anything.
But unexpectedly, the door of the room was opened from the inside the next second. Xiao Fangyun came out with messy long hair and yawned. She pointed to the direction of her own well and touched the tip of her nose: "Nannan, I want you to wash your face with clean water first."
"Oh, okay." Xiao Rong stood up from the chair, ran to the well, fetched a basin of water, and began to wash her face with her hands.
Xiao Fangchi looked puzzled, wondering what these girls were up to. He turned to look at Xiao Fangyun, whose eyes were covered with boogers, and said disdainfully, "You're still talking about others, why don't you wash your face?"
Xiao Fangyun wiped her face twice, glared at Xiao Fangchi, and said unconcernedly: "I'm not wearing makeup today, I'll wash it off later."
"Makeup?" Xiao Fangchi grasped the key point in her words and asked immediately.
"Yeah, do you remember what I looked like the day before yesterday? That was all thanks to Nan Nan's amazing makeup skills."
Xiao Fangyun patted her chest and raised her chin slightly in pride, looking like she shared the glory with everyone. Xiao Fangchi felt that if she had a tail, it would be wagging it to the sky in pride by now.
"But I think you're doing fine now. You're much more uncomfortable than the day before yesterday. Why waste that time?"
Xiao Fangchi's straight man remarks directly angered Su Nan who had just limped to the door of the room with a cane.
"Just tell me whether it looks good or not? Really, what kind of aesthetics is that? Besides, what's wrong with a girl spending more time to be beautiful?" Su Nan gritted his teeth and spat, snorted coldly, pushed Xiao Fangchi's shoulder away, and slowly walked towards the well.
Leaving behind a confused Xiao Fangchi and an angry Xiao Fangyun.
"That's right. I looked so beautiful the day before yesterday, and you still lied with your eyes open." Xiao Fangyun rolled her eyes at her, caught up with Su Nan in two steps, and helped her to the well.
"What did I say wrong?" Xiao Fangchi was at a loss for words. He slapped his forehead and decided not to appear in front of these girls for the time being.
So Xiao Fangchi turned around and walked towards his room.
"Huang Xiaohui didn't come?" Xiao Fangyun looked around and didn't see that annoying figure, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Yeah." Xiao Rong was wiping her face. Hearing this, she nodded vigorously. How could she dare to bring that troublemaker here? She was not stupid.
"That's good." Su Nan replied, not hiding his dislike for Huang Xiaohui at all.
Xiao Rong smiled and said nothing. After washing her face, she waited by the side until Su Nan and Xiao Fangyun finished washing.
Xiao Rong stood opposite Su Nan and saw her taking out a toothbrush to brush her teeth. She had seen that thing in the supply and marketing cooperative. It was not cheap and the price could buy two or three pounds of pork. She was reluctant to buy it.
But now that she saw Su Nan, she couldn't help but feel itchy. Could it be that Su Nan's teeth were so white and not yellow at all, was it because she brushed them with a toothbrush?
Next time she goes to the county town, she will pester her father to buy her one no matter what.
He glanced at Xiao Fangyun and saw that she, like him, had just touched him a few times with her fingers and that was it. Only then did he feel a little relieved.
But Xiao Fangyun also gargled with salt water, which she didn't do, and she would have to learn it next time.
"Su Zhiqing, what is this?" Xiao Rong asked in surprise.
After brushing his teeth, Su Nan wet his face, squeezed out a little paste from a bottle, rubbed it twice with his palms, and a lot of foam appeared. Then Su Nan rubbed it on his face.
Xiao Fangyun followed suit and skillfully applied foam on her face.
Xiao Rong had never seen this thing before, so she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This is facial cleanser." There was foam on Su Nan's face, and he was afraid that it would flow into his mouth, so he just answered vaguely.
Xiao Rong didn't hear clearly, but she was too embarrassed to ask again, so she could only stand aside and watch them in silence.
"Okay, let's go in." Su Nan wiped the water stains on his face with a towel, took the lead and walked towards the room, then hung the towel on the wooden rack at the door.
I silently complained in my heart: "It would be much more convenient and hygienic if I had a face towel. Another day I miss modern gadgets."
Seeing this, Xiao Rong hurriedly followed.
It was a familiar posture again, Su Nan sat on the bed, Xiao Rong sat on a chair, and raised her face slightly to face Su Nan.
Su Nan lifted Xiao Rong's chin and looked left and right. Seeing that the acne on her face had disappeared a lot and her skin was much more hydrated, she nodded with satisfaction, stretched out her hand, opened her palm, and said softly, "Where's my vanishing cream?"
Hearing this, Xiao Rong reached into her pocket and touched the iron box. Thinking of the miraculous effect, she felt reluctant to part with it, so she pondered, "Su Zhiqing, can I buy this box?"
Su Nan was stunned, and his first reaction was to refuse. But then he thought that this box had already been used by Xiao Rong, and he would not use it again. It would be more profitable to sell it and get a profit than to put it in a corner to collect dust.
He then recalled the price he had asked Zhou Rang for, coughed lightly, and said, "This box was eight dollars when I bought it. I hadn't spent much on it when I gave it to you. If you want to buy it now, I'll give you a friendly price of five dollars."
"Eight?"
"Five dollars?"
Xiao Fangyun and Xiao Rong covered their lips in surprise.
Xiao Fangyun stood aside with her eyes wide open, carefully touching her face, and calculating in her mind how much money she had spent on Su Nan's vanishing cream during this period.
Xiao Rong kept rubbing the surface of the iron box, her heart pounding, and the secret pocket on her right chest where she hid her money felt slightly hot. It contained the 10 yuan her mother had given her.
It was because she was looking for a partner that I gave her money to buy cloth so that she could make a nice top.
But it seems that as long as you have a pretty face, you will look good in anything you wear.
Xiao Rong raised her head slightly and looked at Su Nan, who was wearing a simple white nightgown and had a face as smooth and tender as a peeled egg. She made up her mind.
"Okay, I'll buy it."
