Chapter 707 Putting on Makeup
Chapter 707 Putting on Makeup
She didn't want to listen yet, so she yawned and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Xing was called up to dress up. She changed into the bright red wedding dress she had embroidered, put on makeup and combed her hair.
Zhou Guo got up early and came to see her in the room. There were already quite a few people around. Zhou Xing was already dressed and was kneading noodles. She took out the things she had placed on the bookshelf and came up to her and said, "Sister, how about I put on your makeup?"
Li was helpless. "Why are you here to join in the fun? Why would you put on makeup when you wear men's clothes all day? Your sister is getting married today, the most important day in her life. Can you handle it?"
Zhou Xing smiled and said, "Second Aunt, let Guoguo go ahead. She looks really good with her makeup on."
What else can Li say?
Zhou Guo and the other maids kneaded the flour, took the rouge and powder, and started to put on makeup.
The women in the room who were standing around treated it as a joke at first, but gradually their voices died down, and then their mouths opened wider and wider, staring at the two people without even blinking.
Who doesn't know Zhou Guo? To put it bluntly, she is a tomboy. Some people even call her Miss Zhou. Listen, such a good girl is being called in a way that sounds neither male nor female.
Still wearing makeup?
As a result, Zhou Guo took out a bunch of brush-like things from somewhere, opened them and started applying rouge and powder. His technique was so skillful that even the woman hired by the Zhou family felt ashamed of herself.
The other people in the village were even worse off. They had never bought any bottles or jars in their entire lives, and they had never even bought a few boxes of the cheapest rouge.
Only in recent years when life has become better, I spend money to buy a box of rouge throughout the year, but I am reluctant to use it.
As for powder, it is even more impossible.
I originally wanted to learn here, but I didn't expect Zhou Guo to take on this job.
Now looking at it, it seems that it is not a bad thing. This child puts on makeup like writing, and he uses a pen to mess around on his face.
Seeing Zhou Xing's face slowly turning white, delicate, and rosy...
Her eyes became big and round, the eyelid hairs were thick and dense and slightly upturned, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her small mouth was like a red cherry, rosy and tempting.
After dressing like this, she seems like a completely different person.
The room was originally noisy and bustling with many people talking, but later on, no one was talking at all. Everyone was staring at Zhou Guo's actions and Zhou Xing's increasingly beautiful face.
It's really strange. This was clearly makeup applied right under their eyelids. After just a few blinks, the original Zhou Xing disappeared!
Someone in the crowd couldn't help but whisper, "Oh my god, how did it become like this? I clearly didn't even move a step away!"
No one said anything, but they all thought so in their hearts.
Under the light, the girl with round, bright eyes, rosy fair skin, and a straight, delicate nose seemed like a different person. They were really good to see.
After Zhou Guo finished applying the lip balm, he leaned back and looked around. He dipped his finger in some powder and applied a little bit on the corner of Zhou Xing's eye near the bridge of her nose. He felt as if he was different again.
The makeup lady was originally a little dissatisfied about having her job taken away from her, but now seeing Zhou Guo's actions, she was almost kneeling down to her. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, she really wanted to become her disciple!
This is so magical, this is not makeup, it's clearly a head replacement!
Even Mrs. Li was silent. Looking at Zhou Xing's refreshed face, she looked at her daughter suspiciously. She couldn't understand why she dressed like a boy all day long, but she was so familiar with the things used by little girls?
Zhou Guo finished drawing the eyes, looked around, and said with a smile: "Okay, it looks great!"
The things she prepared were worth it. Some were bought, and some were made by herself. She spent a lot of effort on them just hoping to use them today. Sure enough, the effects were very good.
Zhou Xing didn't even need to look in the mirror. She only needed to look at everyone's expressions to know how beautiful the makeup was. She smiled and said, "You always look great with makeup on. It's a pity that I only learned a little bit."
Zhou Guo put away the things on the table and said, "What's so difficult about this? I'll teach you later. These are also new things I learned elsewhere."
The ladies hurriedly said, "Hey, Zhou Guo, you know that two of our family members who are no younger than your sister are going to get married soon. Would you like to teach me?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Oh, no, no, no, I don't want to learn. Can I let my daughter learn from you?"
"I don't need you to teach me. I just hope you can put makeup on our child when the time comes. Your makeup looks so good. I have seen many new brides put on makeup, but I have never seen anything like this. It's rare that you can't even tell that she has put on makeup. Is that okay?"
The old lady was already combing Zhou Xing's hair. She became very anxious when she heard this. She also wanted to become her disciple!
Zhou Guo refused without hesitation, "I'm sorry, aunts, I can only use these little tricks on my family members, but if I really show them to others, it won't be good enough. Besides, I don't have time. You know how busy I am on the farm. I don't even have time to drink water every day, so how can I have the time to teach you these things?"
No one dared to say anything more. After all, he had a big family and a lot of money now, so how could he have the time to teach everyone these things.
After she said that, my heated brain cooled down. They were just digging for food in the fields. What's the point of learning this and applying makeup so beautifully all day long? Sweat would pour down their faces while they were working, and they would look like a tabby cat when they got home every day. It was useless no matter how well they applied makeup.
But there are also families who have daughters who are about to get married, and they feel itchy and unhappy.
Regardless of what they thought, Zhou Guo took out the headgear that Zhou Dacang had bought, and also took out all the jewelry they had bought together in Yunzhou. He filled the dressing table with them, almost blinding everyone's eyes.
Where have they seen such good things? ?
Now that I have become rich, I can only afford to buy a big gold bracelet, gold earrings, and a few gold hairpins. The rest are either made of silver or gold-covered silver. This headpiece inlaid with pearls and various gemstones...
They have never been seen on the tables in the county town.
It turns out that the real good stuff looks so good?!
Some people couldn't help but come forward and want to touch it.
Fortunately, someone beside her stopped her and whispered, "What are you doing? If this thing breaks, can you afford to pay for it? Just take a look."
"I just want to feel if these are real."
Li tried to smooth things over, "It's okay. It's not a big deal to take a look. This set of jewelry was bought by my brother-in-law. He couldn't come back, so he prepared it for the child. It's not cheap. Even I only took a quick look at it the day I gave it to her. I haven't even seen it in the past few years."
He looked at it carefully again and sighed, "It's really beautiful, isn't it?"
After she said this, others dared to speak.
"That's right. I didn't even dare to say it out loud. It turns out that something you wear on your head can be done this way. Mother Guoguo, do you know how much your uncle spent on this thing?"
