Come to the state-owned barber shop.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a dim mirror facing the door. Under the mirror is an old, dark yellow wooden table, on which are casually placed hair cutting tools such as razors and scissors.
The only old master in the shop was dozing off on a worn-out sofa, his snoring almost blowing the roof off.
Jiang Yu walked over and shouted, "Master, give me a new hairstyle like the one on the wall."
The old master woke up dazedly, but before he could say anything, Fang Jingyuan glanced at the photo on the wall and protested, "Is this the suitable hairstyle you were talking about?"
Jiang Yu raised an eyebrow: "What? You don't trust my judgment? How about this, if you mess up your haircut, you can do whatever you want with my head!"
Fang Jingyuan bit her lower lip and thought for a moment: "Okay, you said so yourself. If you cut it badly, I will never forgive you!"
Although she and Jiang Yu had not gotten along since childhood, there was one thing she had to admit, that was Jiang Yu was better at dressing up than her.
"What do you mean by a bad cut?! Do you know how to talk, woman? I, Old Yang, have been cutting hair for decades and have never made a bad cut!"
The old master looked dissatisfied.
Jiang Yu curled his lips and smiled, "My sister is ignorant, Master, please don't bother with her! I asked before I came here, Master, your craftsmanship is the best in the whole of Beijing, otherwise we wouldn't have come all the way here!"
The old master's face suddenly broke into a smile: "You are a lady with good taste! My craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation. Today, I will let you see it for yourself!"
Jiang Yu deftly pushed Fang Jingyuan onto the barber chair, then made jokes and instructed the master barber to trim her hair according to his own ideas.
Of course, although it was her idea, the master didn't notice it at all.
Finally, I cut a Korean-style bob with air bangs.
In fact, she felt that Hong Kong-style long wavy hair was more suitable for Fang Jingyuan's facial features, but the art troupe now did not allow perming of hair, and did not allow her to let her hair down, so she had to settle for the second best.
Jiang Yu praised the master's craftsmanship and said, "I've finally seen it today. Master, your skills are so stable and excellent! Next time I need a haircut, I'll definitely come to you!"
The master's face was once again filled with praise and he smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Wait, I'll go get something to fix my bangs!"
After a while, the master came over with the perm tools and used a small brush to curl the unruly hair inward. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell that it had been permed, but the hair looked better than before.
After finishing, Fang Jingyuan's temperament suddenly changed.
The previously broad forehead is no longer visible after being covered by the bangs, and the big square face is also made more delicate and petite by the layered short hair.
Fang Jingyuan looked at herself in the mirror, a look of disbelief on her face: "This... is really me?"
The old master raised his chin slightly and hummed complacently: "Comrade, do you still think I cut your hair badly?"
Fang Jingyuan shook her head vigorously: "No, no, Master, your haircut is so beautiful!"
Wow, it was so beautiful that she wanted to cry!!
The old master was so delighted by the praise that he charged one cent less for the haircut, only asking for thirty cents.
He also reminded Jiang Yu to come to him for a haircut in the future, and Jiang Yu agreed.
Coming out of the barber shop, Fang Jingyuan touched her newly-haired hair, her ears reddened as she hesitated, "Well... I'll treat you to a meal at the state-owned restaurant, but don't get me wrong, I just don't want to owe you a favor!"
Jiang Yu thought for a moment and said, "No need to treat me to a meal. If you want to repay me, then do me a favor."
Fang Jingyuan paused for a moment, then suddenly thought of something. Her expression changed slightly as she said, "You're not still thinking about Brother Cheng and wanting me to give up and help you two? Don't even think about it. It's impossible!"
Jiang Yu rolled her eyes secretly: "Oh, then I wish you a happy marriage!"
Fang Jingyuan opened her mouth: "..." Why does this sound so unkind?
Jiang Yu ignored Fang Jingyuan's choked expression and said, "I want you to help me spread the news that my brother was expelled from Ma Mei and the school. The more people who know, the better."
What's circulating outside now is the affair between Ma Mei and Jiang Yunfan. No one knows that Jiang Yunfan was expelled for talking back to his teacher.
She originally wanted to use Ma Mei's mistakes to negotiate with the school and let Jiang Yunfan return to school.
But now she has changed her mind.
She wants to use public opinion to force the school to beg them to come back!
Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing for them to go back in disgrace!
Fang Jingyuan heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that this was the only request. She nodded immediately and said, "No problem. I'll take care of it."
Fang Jingyuan works in an art troupe and knows a lot of people. She has many relatives in the Fang family, and all of them work for state-owned enterprises.
She would be the perfect person to do the promotion.
Before Fang Jingyuan left, Jiang Yu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few bags of snacks, some for the Fang family and some for the Jiang family over there.
In addition, she also took out a hundred yuan and asked her to give it to Su Yu, saying that it was money she had borrowed from her before.
After parting with Fang Jingyuan, she went straight home.
After Jiang Yu returned home, Jiang Yunfan and his brother had not returned yet.
Wei Zhiguo took Wei Zhuzhu to visit his old comrades in the countryside today. Before leaving, he asked Jiang Yunfan and the others if they wanted to go with them.
Ever since the Wei family found out what happened to their family, they have been always thinking of ways and excuses to send them food, and the Jiang family and their group have seen it all.
Wei Zhiguo is a reliable person, and the countryside he is going to is not far away. Jiang Yu thinks it is not a good idea for Jiang Yunfan and the others to stay at home all day, so it would be nice to go out and relax, so she lets them make their own decision.
After hearing this, Jiang Yunfan and Jiang Yunzhou clamored to go out and play. Finally, Jiang Yu told them to listen to Grandpa Wei and not act naughty, and then let them go out.
Seeing that it was still early, Jiang Yu took the cotton cloth she had bought last time and the "Dacron" that Wen Yanqing had given her last time, and went out to the Wei family.
Shen Wanrong was bored at home alone. When she saw Jiang Yu coming over, a bright smile appeared on her face.
"Oh, finally someone comes to talk to me. I'm not used to the lively Zhuzhu not being at home today."
Jiang Yu smiled and said, "I was going to come over a few days ago, but something happened at home, so I only have time to come now."
Chen Wanrong welcomed her into the house: "You can come over anytime, I'm free anyway. By the way, what do you want this Dacron fabric to be made into? A dress, or a shirt and pants?"
Jiang Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let's make it into a dress."
Although it is still very conservative now, it is acceptable to wear dresses below the knee.
Shen Wanrong smiled and nodded: "Young girls should dress beautifully. When I was young, I especially liked wearing skirts. Now I am old."
Jiang Yu: "Grandma Shen still has her charm, she doesn't look old at all. The first time I saw Grandma Shen, I thought you were a 28-year-old girl!"
Shen Wanrong laughed so hard that the tiny wrinkles at the corners of her eyes showed, and she slapped her with a smile: "You kid just loves to talk nonsense, any 28-year-old girl like me should cry!"
