Chapter Seventy-Three: Mother Li's Great Transformation

"Hello Auntie," Wang Guizhi listened, hurriedly walked over and greeted her cordially, "Thank you for inviting me to your birthday party, I wish you a happy birthday!"

"Ouch, you have such a good relationship with our family, how could I not invite you over?" Cheng Xiufen was very satisfied when she saw that she was so sensible, "The little girl's mouth is so sweet!"

Wang Guizhi thought of the gift she had carefully prepared, so she hurriedly wanted to pull Cheng Xiufen into the living room.

"Auntie, I have prepared a birthday gift for you, come and take a look with me!" Wang Guizhi smiled mischievously, showing the liveliness and cuteness of the girl.

Cheng Xiufen was also curious about what gifts Wang Guizhi had prepared for herself, and she felt that Wang Guizhi could always bring different surprises to herself. She followed Wang Guizhi to the living room, and Wang Guizhi took the gift that was on the coffee table just now.

"Auntie, take it apart and take a look. Wang Guizhi took the gift out of the bag, handed it to Cheng Xiufen, and motioned her to open the gift.

Wang Guizhi wrapped the gift in a beautiful box, and it seemed that she couldn't guess what she was sending.

"You kid is so sweet," Cheng Xiufen saw the exquisite packaging and weighed its weight, "I actually prepared a lot of things for me, and the weight of this gift is quite heavy." ”

As she spoke, Cheng Xiufen opened the gift that Wang Guizhi gave her.

This time she took it apart, and her eyes lit up.

What Wang Guizhi gave her was the woolen sweater and shawl that she had stayed up all night to rush out.

Cheng Xiufen was surprised and delighted, surprised that Wang Guizhi actually gave her a woolen sweater and shawl, and happily, this woolen sweater and shawl given to her by Wang Guizhi are obviously of very good quality.

Wang Guizhi looked at the woolen sweater in front of him, touched it, and smacked his tongue.

The material of this woolen sweater is very good, it is fluffy when touched, although it looks thin, but Cheng Xiufen is not as knowledgeable as that kind of countryman, she naturally knows how warm this dress is. And this thin woolen sweater, the color is still good-looking, beige-colored, especially lining the temperament, and it also looks good. And the way this woolen sweater is played is different from the ordinary market.

Cheng Xiufen also recognized it at a glance, this is the one that has just become popular in the foreign market not long ago. Many foreign celebrities will wear similar styles, and this kind of woolen sweater appears in fashion week.

Wang Guizhi also learned this style of play from later fashion magazines, of course, it was not very popular at that time, and even a little outdated. It's just that at that time, the magazine was doing a retro-style feature, so it put this cardigan in it.

And the retro style in the future is now popular and trendy.

This cardigan is popular, and naturally the price is very expensive, not to mention its particularly difficult weaving. Cheng Xiufen once asked the tailor for this kind of knitting woolen sweater, but the answer she got was either too difficult to no, or yes but you have to wait for half a year and a year, and the price is high, the same price and the same material, you can buy four or five woolen sweaters.

Cheng Xiufen didn't expect that this Wang Guizhi actually gave her a woolen sweater that she had been dreaming of.

The other shawl is snow-white, the fabric is also very smooth to the touch, and the tassels are also decorated just right.

Cheng Xiufen was reluctant to let go of the woolen sweater and shawl at all, she couldn't wait to change them on the spot.

"Gui Zhi, where did you buy this," Cheng Xiufen nodded, looking very satisfied, her eyes kept on these two clothes, "I asked before, this woolen sweater is very expensive, you must have spent a lot of money." ”

Cheng Xiufen was a little reluctant, after all, she also knew the price of this woolen sweater. If a student is asked to give away too valuable items, then she must be unhappy in her heart, and Wang Guizhi's family is poor, although there is a manuscript fee, but what if it is taken into her own living expenses?

"No, Auntie, I didn't buy it," Wang Guizhi shook his head when he heard Cheng Xiufen's question, and then smiled slightly, "I knitted it myself." I knitted the cardigan and the shawl. ”

"You actually knitted it!" Cheng Xiufen didn't expect that this was woven by Wang Guizhi herself, she was stunned with her mouth open, and she couldn't speak for a long time, "This is actually knitted by you!"

"Hmm. Wang Guizhi nodded embarrassedly.

Cheng Xiufen remembered that when Wang Guizhi came to her house as a guest before, her daughter Li Yongting pestered her to knit sweaters for herself. Wang Guizhi later also sent two sweaters over, Cheng Xiufen saw that the weaving method was not coming, and thought that this was already her highest level, but she didn't expect this woolen sweater to be considered.

Cheng Xiufen was very moved, she knew how difficult it was to knit such a woolen sweater, and it was only two weeks since she sent the invitation.

"You kid, you're tired, I'm really bothering you. Cheng Xiufen patted her shoulder distressedly and said.

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, just like it. Wang Guizhi said modestly.

Cheng Xiufen's relatives followed behind, looking at Cheng Xiufen and Wang Guizhi smiling, they knew that they must have an unusual relationship. But they didn't know where the little girl came from, and some people began to mumble and gossip.

Cheng Xiufen heard their muttering, thinking that she hadn't introduced Wang Guizhi to them yet, so she quickly turned to them and said, "I'm sorry, I like this gift so much, let you see the joke, it's me who didn't entertain them well." ”

"It's okay, it's okay. The crowd said so.

"This girl, her name is Wang Guizhi, and she has a very good relationship with our family," Cheng Xiufen hurriedly introduced to them, "She is studying in a university now! And she is not only a top student, but also a young writer, and a publishing house has signed a contract with her." ”

Those who originally only thought that Wang Guizhi was just a clever girl, but now when they heard Cheng Xiufen say this, they all felt that this girl was extraordinary and not an ordinary person.

There are very few people who can go to college, let alone sign a contract with a publishing house while they are in college.

The group of relatives began to praise Wang Guizhi.

"This little girl, the appearance is really Peugeot, very blessed. ”

"It's so skillful, such a beautiful woolen sweater can be worth coming out!"

"And went to college, and published a book! If only my child had half the life of this girl!"

............

These relatives that Cheng Xiufen took over are not very good. Cheng Xiufen didn't want to see them live a poor life like this, while her own family lived a good life, and she often helped them, but it was just a little money.

Cheng Xiufen also knows the truth of moderation, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish.

However, there are still people who want to find out what Wang Guizhi's relationship is with their family. After all, they also know Cheng Xiufen's temper, not to mention that Cheng Xiufen would not let such a little girl attend her birthday party for no reason.

"This girl, your surname is Wang, what does it have to do with our Li family and Cheng family?" said someone in the crowd.

It's a very acute question.

Wang Guizhi was not flustered at all, her demeanor was very decent, and she couldn't find fault with it.

"I am good friends with my aunt's daughter, Tingting. Wang Guizhi said.

She was afraid that others would misunderstand her as Li Yongchang's girlfriend, although now Wang Guizhi felt that it was almost there. But now this era is very conservative after all, and few girlfriends often come to their boyfriend's house to watch. Wang Guizhi didn't want her reputation to be tarnished because of this.

Wang Guizhi was afraid that someone would ask again and wanted to avoid this topic, so she said to Cheng Xiufen: "Auntie, these two clothes are beautiful, go to the house and try them." ”

"Okay, good," since today is her birthday, Cheng Xiufen is in a good mood, "I also want to see if I look good in this dress!"

After speaking, Wang Guizhi pushed Cheng Xiufen to the room to try if the clothes fit.

"Auntie, this ......" Wang Guizhi arrived in the room and found that he was a little embarrassed.

Cheng Xiufen is wearing her own skirt today, and if she changes into a woolen sweater, she has to pick another pair of pants.

"It's okay, you can look at my wardrobe casually," Cheng Xiufen saw what she was thinking, but she didn't mind, "I'm so old, and this wardrobe is nothing unpleasant." ”

Wang Guizhi heard Cheng Xiufen's words, and then she was relieved. She knew what she was allowed to do, and with a little adjustment, she picked out a pair of bell bottoms from the closet.

These bell bottoms are all black, which can modify the lines of the legs, and they are especially compatible with the sweater woven by Wang Guizhi.

Cheng Xiufen put on a cardigan and changed into bell bottoms.

Wang Guizhi always felt that something was missing, so she asked tentatively, "Auntie, do you have any jewelry that you can wear?"

"I have a jewelry box with a lot of jewelry in it," Cheng Xiufen heard Wang Guizhi say this, but remembered her long-dusted jewelry box, and quickly took out the jewelry box, "You can pick and choose yourself, Auntie is all up to you." ”

This jewelry box has been sitting for too long, and there is still a layer of ash on it. Wang Guizhi opened the jewelry box, looked at it for a long time, and then chose a pair of good-looking pearl necklaces.

She felt that the chain looked very valuable, and it must be very human to wear.

Cheng Xiufen looked at the pearl necklace chosen by Wang Guizhi, and she was quite emotional. This pearl necklace was given to her by her mother, and later for some special reasons, she could only hide it secretly from being seen, and as a result, she also forgot about this necklace later.

Wang Guizhi saw that Cheng Xiufen was old, had a lot of hair, and her hair quality was still very good, so she gave her a hairpin for a noblewoman.

"Auntie, I'll put on makeup for you," Wang Guizhi saw rouge lipstick or something on the side, and proposed, "I also learned some makeup from my roommates at school, and the makeup is pretty good." ”

Cheng Xiufen thought that today was her birthday, and it would be better to dress up beautifully, so she agreed to her proposal.

"You're going to have to help me draw better. Cheng Xiufen said jokingly.

"Okay, I'll definitely dress you up beautifully!" Wang Guizhi took over with a smile.

Wang Guizhi first lightly swept Cheng Xiufen with makeup powder to make her complexion a little evener, after all, Cheng Xiufen's face also had some spots. After that, he drew her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil, and painted her eyebrows thin and black, which is very similar to the flavor of old Shanghai. Then, Wang Guizhi painted some eyeshadow on Cheng Xiufen to make her eyes look more divine. Then she applied rouge to Cheng Xiufen again, and she looked much better. In the end, Wang Guizhi put another layer of lipstick on Cheng Xiufen, and she chose a positive red one, which looked particularly temperamental.

In the end, Cheng Xiufen put on the high heels she had just bought and put on a shawl.

Cheng Xiufen suddenly changed from a lady who worked hard in housework to a lady in old Shanghai, and her dignified and elegant temperament was spontaneously born.

Wang Guizhi was stunned, she didn't expect that she would be so successful in helping Cheng Xiufen dress up.

Cheng Xiufen stood in front of the mirror, but she was full of emotion.

She thought of her girlhood, when she was the daughter of a landlord. At that time, her mother was also dressed like this, and she often tinkered with rouge or something.

"It's so good-looking, I'm very satisfied," Cheng Xiufen's words trembled a little, "Thank you, Gui Zhi." ”

She didn't expect that she could be so good-looking at this age, and Cheng Xiufen felt as if she had returned to her girlhood.

She spun around the mirror, satisfied.

"Auntie, you really look so good. Wang Guizhi boasted.

"It's still your handiwork. For Wang Guizhi's praise, Cheng Xiufen was very useful.

Cheng Xiufen couldn't wait to walk out of the room, and as soon as she went out, she was pounced on by her daughter Li Yongting, who had already bought things and came back.

"Mom, you're so good-looking," Li Yongting said coquettishly, "You don't look like my mother, like my eighteen-year-old sister, if you go to the street, others will definitely think we are sisters!"

Li Yongting is coquettish, and her mouth is also very sweet, so Cheng Xiufen loves her little daughter very much.

"You, it's really not big or small," Cheng Xiufen flicked her daughter's little brain, pretending to punish her, "What are you talking about, who is the sister and who is the sister!"

Although she said this, she was very happy in her heart, and she couldn't stop smiling.

Everyone was also surprised by Cheng Xiufen's transformation.

This is, there is a relative named Cheng Qiuling, she is Li Yongting's fourth aunt, and she is also tall and thin.

"Xiufen, I can't recognize your change," as Cheng Xiufen's biological sister, Cheng Qiuling has a very good relationship with her, "It's so good-looking!

She has never been stingy in praising her sisters.

Cheng Qiuling thought so, but her daughter-in-law Gu Shunping didn't think so in her heart.

She saw that Wang Guizhi was praised by her relatives so much, and she was very unwilling to admit defeat in her heart, and she didn't think so.

Isn't it just that she can wear a sweater, write a book, and make up a makeup, as for praising her like this?

However, Gu Shunping was still praising them in her mouth.

And Li Yongchang's gaze has been staying on Wang Guizhi.
