73 Be yourself

Xie Mingzhu continued: "Anyway, your publishing house is close to my home, and it is very convenient to commute to work. And my second brother is not at home, you can live in his room without paying rent. โ
Lin Qiang listened to Xie Mingzhu's words, her cheeks flushed slightly, a trace of shame flashed on her face, and she shook her head again and again: "No, what's the matter if I live in your house?" โ
If it's not related to it, it's not very good to spread out.
"So what's the matter?" Xie Mingzhu laughed, "You have coveted my second brother for so long, and you can sleep in his room, aren't you excited?" โ
Lin Qiang stretched out her hand and patted her gently: "What nonsense! Don't talk nonsense. โ
As he spoke, the expression on his face became melancholy, "I see when I go to the housing authority to see if there is a house to rent." โ
The houses are all public, and each unit is also divided into houses, some houses are lived in directly, without money, some are purchased with a lump sum payment, and some are collected by the housing authority every month.
And generally only the right of residence, not the right of sale.
If you want to rent a house, you naturally have to file with the housing authority.
It may not be possible to rent it yet.
Listening to Lin Qiang's words, Xie Mingzhu shook his head slightly: "How can it be so simple to rent a house, if you live here, you can move here at any time." โ
Lin Qiang still felt that something was not right.
When she was young before, she was not ashamed, and she did a lot of embarrassing things in order to pursue Second Brother Xie, but now she feels panicked when she thinks about it.
Thanks to her own "shameless" blessing, the Xie family knows that she likes Xie Shaoqian, if she lives here now, I don't know what they will think of her.
"I'm not moving out right now anyway." Lin Qiang said, "Besides, I paid so much money every month, and I didn't eat more to come back, didn't I lose money?" โ
Seeing that she insisted, Xie Mingzhu did not persuade more.
"You know it in your own heart, so I won't persuade you, but don't tell them about moving out and living in the future, and don't tell them where you live when you rent a house in the future."
Lin Qiang nodded lightly: "I know." โ
Xie Mingzhu glanced up at the time and stood up: "It's not early, let's go to dinner, you wait for me to wash up and change clothes." โ
With that, he went upstairs.
Lin Qiang was waiting downstairs.
After waiting for a few minutes, Xie Mingzhu came down with the bag.
Looking at the orange floral dress she was wearing, she smiled and quipped, "I haven't seen you wear such a brightly colored dress." โ
As he spoke, he circled around her and nodded, "It's really good-looking." โ
That is, Xie Mingzhu's face is still a little dark, and it will look better when it is whiter.
Looking at it, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes.
Xie Mingzhu saw the white floral short-sleeved shirt and black cloth pants she was wearing, and sighed lightly: "You still don't dare to wear a skirt?" โ
When she was a child, Lin Qiang was like a tomboy, with short hair like boys, jumping up and down in neutral clothes.
She has always had a good personality and gets along well with both male and female classmates.
Later, when he was in love, he fell in love with Xie Shaoqian.
A woman is a person who pleases herself, and if she wants to make a good impression in front of the person she likes, she begins to pay a little attention to her image.
She grew her hair long and wore a blouse and skirt.
Although I think the skirt is really inconvenient, I am still happy that it has become beautiful.
Xie Mingzhu has always felt that there is nothing wrong with girls loving to dress up.
Dressing up beautifully is not for others to see, just to make yourself feel happy.
Of course, it's great if someone you like can notice you.
Also, there are no cosmetics these days, at most just a lipstick or something.
I didn't dare to apply it very heavy, but only dared to apply a thin layer.
However, Lin Qiang's parents were very concerned.
They feel that their daughter's love of dressing up is dusty in order to attract the attention of men, which is shameless.
In their opinion, their daughter should study hard at a young age, and she should not think about these messy things all day long.
Once Lin Qiang came home and forgot to wipe the lipstick off her mouth, and was seen by her father, who had just gotten off work.
The father was angry in an instant, and whether he was outside or not, in front of the neighbors, he directly slapped her twice.
Then, he pulled her clothes into the house, asked her to take out all her skirts, pile them outside, and set them on fire.
This incident left a deep shadow on her, and she still doesn't dare to touch any cosmetics or wear a skirt again.
Lin Qiang smiled bitterly and shook her head, but did not speak.
Seeing this, Xie Mingzhu took her hand and walked upstairs: "What age is it now?" You're also twenty-one years old, so why don't you want to wear something you like? โ
"You have to learn to resist, it's because you give in again and again, that's why this will squeeze you again and again."
Dragged her upstairs, rummaged around his closet, and took out a few dresses that had not yet been worn.
It was all prepared for her by Gao Siyu before she came back.
"From today onwards, how about being yourself?"
Xie Mingzhu was holding two dresses in her hands, and her eyes were full of anticipation.
Lin Qiang's gaze moved from the dress to Xie Mingzhu's face, and in her eyes full of anticipation, she nodded lightly.
"Which one do you prefer?"
What Gao Siyu prepared for Xie Mingzhu were pink and tender skirts, suitable for little girls.
Although Xie Mingzhu has the experience of a previous life, she can't stand the fact that she has a heart that is eternally eighteen years old.
Therefore, she likes the skirts that Gao Siyu bought.
In the end, Lin Qiang chose a knee-length dress with pink and white checkered lapels.
Xie Mingzhu turned around and went out, saying as he walked, "You put it on and try it first." โ
I closed the door and waited for a while, then I asked inside, "Are you okay?" โ
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the door of the room had been opened, and Lin Qiang appeared in front of him.
"How? Is it okay? โ
Xie Mingzhu only felt a light in his eyes, and then he couldn't wait to nod: "It's good-looking!" โ
Lin Qiang's skin is also fair, and wearing this dress can bring out her whiteness even more.
"I'll give you another braid of your hair."
pushed Lin Qiang into the room, unwrapped a single twist braid hanging on the back of her head, and re-tied two loose and lazy fishbone braids.
In an instant, the whole person became fashionable and foreign.
It's much stronger than the little girl who fluttered just now.
I took out a lipstick and applied a light layer.
"Look, isn't it pretty?"
Xie Mingzhu looked at Lin Qiang in the mirror, with a proud face, "Isn't it more energetic than just now?" โ
