Eating melons

Chapter 729 Uncomfortable

As for Xiao Xuemu, he was not surprised at all. In the words of Wei Wei and others, Wu Mei was a native and her ideas were still relatively "old-fashioned".

After accepting a series of modern ideas from Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, Wu Mei's ideas became neither old nor new.

Therefore, he was not surprised at all to make such a choice.

Because this choice is more beneficial to Wu Mei and is in line with Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's self-interested thinking.

On the 26th day of the first lunar month, Wei Wei, Jiang Qi, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin prepared to attend Wu Mei's wedding.

Wei Wei and Xiao Xuemu prepared a set of red quilt covers, while Jiang Qi and Li Zhibin prepared a pair of thermos bottles.

The festive atmosphere in Beijing during the first month of the lunar year had not yet dissipated, and the wind was still chilly. Wei Wei shrank her neck and raised the collar of her blue cotton-padded jacket.

The four of them stood at the bottom of the tube building, and looking at the people coming and going, they knew that they must be going to Wu Mei's house, so the four of them followed the crowd upstairs.

Looking at the door hung with red silk, the red "囍" character on the door, and the "囍" characters pasted on the windows, which were cut a bit roughly, they must be the masterpieces of Wu Mei's family.

There was a buzz of voices inside, mixed with the smell of roasted melon seeds, fruit candies, and cheap tobacco. As soon as I stepped into the house, a wave of heat hit me in the face.

However, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi couldn't get used to the smell and felt like vomiting, but they held it back.

Looking at the unfamiliar faces in the room, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were a little confused.

However, Wu Mei had already told her family that her friends were coming. They were educated youth who went to the countryside with her and were now in Beijing.

Chen Fang didn’t care much about it before. What kind of friends could Wu Mei have? Today, she must focus on entertaining the guests from the groom’s side who came to pick up the bride.

But knowing that the four were all students from Peking University and their families were very powerful, Chen Fang immediately changed her mind and had been waiting there for a long time, for fear of neglecting them.

She never knew that Wu Mei had such a powerful friend, but it was nice that he came, as it could give Wu Mei some face.

Knowing that Wu Mei has so many powerful friends, she will feel more confident and have more face in her husband's family in the future.

After all, she is marrying into a wealthy family, so Chen Fang will also help Wu Mei with some of these aspects.

As soon as Wei Wei, Jiang Qi, Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin came in, Chen Fang noticed them.

There is no way around it. These four people are very outstanding in terms of their dress, looks, appearance and temperament. You can tell at a glance that they come from very good families.

Chen Fang came out to greet them immediately and also sent Wu Yonghong to call Wu Mei.

Chen Fang immediately came over and took the things from Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin and said:

"Hey, you must be my Xiaomei's friends, come in quickly, come in quickly, it's cold at the door and warm inside."

Seeing Chen Fang's enthusiasm and exaggeration, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were still a little uncomfortable.

To be honest, in Wu Mei's description, the impression they both had of Chen Fang was very ordinary, and they didn't like her very much.

So it was a bit embarrassing to see her so enthusiastic and exaggerated.

Not to mention that because of Chen Fang's exaggerated expression and loud voice, everyone in the room was looking at the four of them.

This made Wei Wei and Jiang Qi even more embarrassed. They felt like monkeys in a circus, or like meat on the chopping board for everyone to watch.

Didn't Wu Mei say her mother was always ill? It seems the ginseng Wu Mei saved money to send back was quite effective.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi greeted each other awkwardly.

"Hello Auntie."

"Hey, hey, hey, okay, okay."

Just when Wei Wei and Jiang Qi were feeling extremely embarrassed, Wu Mei also came out. Seeing Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, she immediately walked over.

"Weiwei, Jiang Qi."

Seeing Wu Mei coming, Chen Fang immediately said, "Xiao Mei, entertain your friends well."

Wu Mei nodded and waved to Chen Fang, "Don't worry, Mom, I know, you can go and get busy."

After saying that, he looked at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, "Wei Wei, Jiang Qi, come in with me."

After saying that, he took the two of them and walked towards his room.

As soon as Wei Wei and Jiang Qi left, Chen Fang went to the kitchen to brag about Wu Mei's friends.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi looked at Wu Mei carefully today, and found that she had changed a lot from usual.

Her hair was combed slicked back, with a red velvet flower pinned to her head. She wore a red cotton-padded jacket, and her hair was combed slicked back.

The red cotton-padded jacket was newly made with fine stitching. The collar revealed the sweater underneath, and underneath the sweater was a shirt.

Wei Wei still remembers that Wu Mei bought this wool specifically for her when she was in the Red Star Brigade.

Seeing Wu Mei like this, Wei Wei felt a little sad. She earned so much money every year, but rarely saw her wearing new clothes. Everything was new. Today was the first time.

"I was the one who cut your hair, why is it curly?"

Jiang Qi poked the curls at the ends of her hair, feeling a little surprised.

"That's right. The day after I came back from your house, Hou Chaojie took me to get a perm. It hurt so much that I cried. I remembered you cutting my hair when we were in the brigade. You even cut a missing piece and said, 'That's fashionable.'"

Because of this hair, all the relatives and sisters at home are extremely envious of me.

However, some people said behind her back that she was showing off and didn't know what the current situation would be like. She would be arrested sooner or later. But Wu Mei knew that these people were just jealous.

Just like Wei Wei and others said, how could a country's policies go back on their word? Now that the college entrance examination has been resumed, it will not easily return to its previous state.

Wu Mei looked at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi excitedly, "I've been waiting for you two to come."

Seeing her like this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi smiled at each other, put down the boxes in their hands, and started to put makeup on Wu Mei.

When Wu Mei invited Wei Wei and Jiang Qi a few days ago, she thought of Wei Wei's makeup artist for that day, so she asked the two of them if they could help with her makeup on her wedding day.

This was not a big deal for Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, so Jiang Qi and Wei Wei agreed immediately.

I came early today just to do Wu Mei's makeup.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi immediately opened the makeup box. The two of them got started, and since they had become more skilled, they were much faster than on Wei Wei's wedding day. In less than twenty minutes, Wu Mei had transformed.

Wu Mei's changes in makeup are much more obvious than Wei Wei's.

Because this foundation makes Wei Wei look just a little bit whiter.

Wei Wei's skin is relatively fair because she does a good job of sun protection.

Wu Mei's skin is much darker than Wei Wei's, and she has more skin blemishes. If she puts on makeup, the difference is very obvious compared to before.

Looking at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's makeup skills, people in the room were amazed.

But when they saw those cosmetics, everyone was shocked.

I didn't expect Wu Mei knew such a friend. These cosmetics are not something that ordinary people can get, not to mention there are so many of them. It will cost a lot of money.

Just the things Wu Mei used for makeup were worth several dollars, which was really luxurious.

After the groom finished putting on his makeup and hadn't arrived yet, a group of people immediately surrounded Wei Wei and Jiang Qi and asked them all kinds of questions.

Seeing them like this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi felt very embarrassed, because the people in the room were Wu Mei's former sisters, classmates, cousins, and younger sisters.

They were all very familiar with Wu Mei, but Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn't know anyone, didn't want to know anyone, and didn't like this kind of familiarity. They just felt very uncomfortable.

The two handed the prepared wedding gift to Wu Mei, and then took out the gift that Lei Jiawei asked them to pass on to Wu Mei - a pen. After giving it to her, they made an excuse that they were going to find Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin and slipped away.

Looking at the pen, tears seemed to flash in Wu Mei's eyes, but it seemed to be an illusion. She carefully put the pen away without saying anything.
