Chapter 5 Short Hair
"Mu Yan, did Mr. Luo train you in the afternoon? I saw you go to his office. When she was about to get off work, Li Xiang walked to Mu Yan's desk and asked in a low voice.
Mu Yan said mischievously: "You are just looking forward to Mr. Luo training me, aren't you?" What kind of heart do you have? ”
Sending Hong Bin away in the afternoon, Mu Yan sent the sorted materials to Luo Rongkai's office, "Mr. Luo, I'm sorry, I was late for the subway in the morning, and I guarantee that it won't happen again in the future." ”
"You sit down first." Luo Rongkai looked at the materials and made a few marks with a pen before raising his eyes to look at Mu Yan, "Do you know why I hired you?" ”
Mu Yan looked at him suspiciously, "Because I'm diligent?" ”
"There are too many diligent people!" Luo Rongkai smiled, "My daughter often talks about her appearance, I also studied computers, and you are the girl with the highest appearance I have ever seen who majored in computer science." ”
Mu Yan's face instantly turned red to the root of her ears.
"You have an aura that makes people feel down-to-earth and stable, I believe your work will get better and better, come on!" Luo Rongkai pushed his rimless glasses, his eyes meaningful.
"Mr. Luo, I, thank you for giving me the opportunity, I will work hard." Mu Yan was a little nervous, and Luo Rongkai's words didn't know whether to praise her or belittle her.
The bell rang for getting off work, and Li Xiang took Mu Yan's arm and stepped out of the office building together. From a distance, I saw Li Xiang's doctor's boyfriend Zhou Xi, pushing a bicycle and walking over with a smile.
"Your Great Doctor is here to pick you up again, so happy!" Mu Yan quipped.
"Envy, you should find one too! Or I'll ask Zhou Xi to introduce one to you at the research institute. Li Xiang smiled evilly and let go of Mu Yan's arm, and ran over like a bird to grab Zhou Xi's arm.
"See you next week!" Li Xiang waved his hand, and the two walked away with a smile.
Looking at their backs and gradually moving away, Mu Yan had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Li Xiang told her that laughing behind a bicycle is happier than crying in a BMW. A woman's life is to be pampered and protected by a man. She has been in the company for five years because it is close to home. Zhou Xi didn't want her to be too tired, just have something to do to pass the time.
Zhou Xi is a doctor from the scientific research institute, the two have been together for more than five years, Zhou Xi has been for his younger brother to study, and this year his younger brother was admitted to a key university. Zhou Xi's burden is heavy again, Li Xiang's family wants a bride price of 300,000 yuan, and I don't know when and when it will be able to get it. Fortunately, Dr. Zhou's unit has a welfare house, and the two of them live a small life of firewood, rice, oil and salt, get on the bus first, and then buy tickets.
The first time Mu Yan heard that a girl would ask for a bride price when she got married, Li Xiang said that the average girl in their hometown would have to pay 200,000 yuan for a bride price, and her mother said that if she is beautiful and goes to college like her, 300,000 yuan is considered less, or for the sake of her boyfriend being a doctor, otherwise she doesn't want to marry if she doesn't have 500,000.
Li Xiang hasn't been home for more than three years, she can't stand the eyes of the seven aunts and eight aunts, their girls have already married, the bride price is more than one million, and the less is more than 200,000, like her, the twenty-five or sixteen-year-old is getting more and more depreciated, she can't stand the endless nagging of her parents, and she doesn't want to embarrass Zhou Xi.
Are girls the cash cow of the family? Mu Yan was puzzled. Fortunately, she was born in an enlightened town, and there are no such customs.
It's all about money! Thinking of this, Mu Yan didn't feel angry, Qin Hanyang guarded her everywhere, pointing to the deer as a horse, wasn't she afraid that she would think he was rich and entangle him!
Out of the crowded station, a newly opened hair salon was doing promotion, and when she got the leaflet, Mu Yan suddenly wanted to cut her hair short.
"Fell into the dream of red dust for no reason, and cut off three thousand threads of trouble." To hell with that Qin Hanyang!
"Miss, wash your hair or cut your hair?" The sister at the front desk greeted Mu Yan warmly.
Mu Yan was so old and entered such a high-end hair salon for the first time, and she was a little overwhelmed for a while. "Cut your hair."
"We have three hundred, one hundred sixty-eight, and ninety-eight for haircuts. You're so beautiful, you must find our director to cut 300. ”
"It's so expensive", after dressing up the air conditioner, water heater and simple furniture at home, Mu Yan has little money left, and she bought two sets of OL outfits for the interview and work for a while, and her pocket is very empty. Every day I have to count my fingers when I ride the car and eat, but fortunately, with Li Xiang to accompany me, I don't get tired of eating fragrant noodles and claypot rice every day.
"Then you cut a 168 one, it's a senior hairstylist who does it, and I promise that I won't regret it after cutting." The sister at the front desk is articulate.
"You mean, you still have hairstylists here who don't cut well?"
"Of course not, our hairstylists here are only admitted after passing the examination, how can they cut the hair of customers!" The sister at the front desk was a little upset.
"Is there anything cheaper?"
The little girl glanced at her and said, "There are 58 of them, and they are ordinary hairstylists." You can try it if you want. ”
Mu Yan sighed, it was the only price she could accept.
Sitting in a chair, staring at her long-haired self in the mirror, she felt a sad goodbye.
"If you're as beautiful as you, whoever cuts it won't look ugly." The young man who cut his hair was extremely happy, probably because he hadn't had a chance to use scissors for a long time.
Mu Yan closed her eyes and let the hairstylist unleash his creativity.
Walking on the way home, I felt a sense of relaxation that I had never felt before, and the long hair that I had raised for twenty-one years instantly became a short hair with ears. She loved the new look, clean and stylish. Cutting through the mess with a quick knife is such a painful feeling!
"Mu Yan!" A middle-aged woman saw Mu Yan coming out of the elevator, walked over quickly, and grabbed her.
"Mom, why are you here?" Mu Yan opened the door and asked curiously.
"Are you angry with your mother, you've been gone for more than half a month, and you haven't even made a phone call." Mu Yan's mother had tears in her eyes.
Mu Yan looked at her mother, and the hair dyed on the wedding day was sporadically white. The wrinkles on his face were even more obvious in the dim light. The petite body is even thinner. Mom is really old, older than all women her age.
"Mom, how can I blame you! I just got here, and I haven't had time yet! Mu Yan hugged her mother and said coquettishly.
"I know you blame me in your heart, no matter what, I'm your mother, and my mother's home is your home. Your Uncle Liu's heart is not very good and needs to be taken care of. Mu Yan's mother wiped away her tears as she spoke.
Mu Yan couldn't help but have tears in her eyes, what is her mother for? Sent away his sick father and raised himself, and finally it was easy to find a sick man to take care of.
"Mom doesn't hide it from you, I had a good impression of your Uncle Liu when we were at school, but his family is poor, and your grandma doesn't agree, so let me marry your father. Your father's health has not been very good, and he has been running around for business all year round. Ay! To each his own life. ”
"My dad is away all the year round, so you and Uncle Liu secretly go to Chen Cang?" Mu Yan finally spoke the question in her heart.
"Silly boy, your mother is not old-fashioned, but she is not so trendy as to cheat. Your father is away all the year round, and the family is not responsible for changing the gas and buying rice, your Aunt Liu died in childbirth when she gave birth to her second son, it is not easy for your Uncle Liu for so many years, I pity him. Halfway husband and wife, old companions, find each other to rely on! Mu Yan's mother pulled her hair and exclaimed, "Why did you cut your hair?" ”
"It's easy to cut and relaxed. Look good! Mu Yan said, but Qin Hanyang's eyes stroking her long hair appeared in her mind.
