"If you have delicate skin, just use this toner. Although this brand is only a second-tier brand, this series of skin care products for girls is still good."
"Jiaojiao, how do you know so much?"
"Well... I have a friend who likes to study these things."
…
"Jiaojiao, please help me see if this skirt suits me?"
"It suits your mother, but not you. Sister Aiyan, come and try on this skirt."
"Little black dress? But I've never worn anything like this."
"You'll know after you try it."
…
Xu Qi, who had been reduced from a boyfriend or cousin to a porter, was carrying various shopping bags and followed the two girls hard. He had an ominous premonition in his heart, feeling that the small treasury he had saved over the years would be lost to these two. In the girl's hands.
After this visit, Xu Qi had a profound new understanding of his cousin. The formerly dull and introverted cousin had become extremely cunning - he said lightly, "I'm so envious, I haven't received a gift from my cousin yet." It was so tempting that Zhang Aiyan had to pay for gifts out of his own pocket. As a boyfriend, how could he ask his girlfriend to pay for it? So if he had one item, he would have a second one, from skin care products to clothes to shoes, he was almost armed to the teeth. .
"Jiaojiao, let's hang out together next time."
In the subway, Zhang Aiyan shouted to Sheng Jiaoyang who was walking out of the subway.
Sheng Jiaoyang turned his head and blinked at Zhang Aiyan, then walked away carrying large and small bags.
"This girl, I bought her so many things and didn't even say goodbye!" Xu Qi grinded his teeth.
Zhang Aiyan hugged Xu Qi's arm and said with a smile: "Your cousin is very interesting. She has quite good taste. She knows those international brands very well, as if she has experienced them herself. It can be seen that she has used a lot in this regard. Kung Fu, the most rare thing is that she can still be admitted to a key university. It's really amazing!"
How powerful is this? He is clearly a human being!
Xu Qi, who had stepped on the bottom line and squandered nearly half of his small treasury, was in unbearable pain. Originally, he was planning to buy a car worth more than 100,000 yuan for transportation. Now that his wallet has shrunk severely, he can only postpone the car purchase.
This cousin is nothing if not enlightened. Once she is enlightened, she will be extremely shrewd.
When Sheng Jiaoyang returned home, the sun had already set.
She was startled as soon as she entered the house. The light in the low-rent house was dim and the people sitting at the dining table facing the door looked like ghosts to her who was near-sighted. A fight.
As soon as you have money, go for vision correction as soon as possible! Sheng Jiaoyang turned on the light and saw that it was Xu Qing. He was relieved and at the same time made up his mind to correct his vision. Even if the body is very healthy, it is often frightened that sooner or later, heart failure will occur.
Xu Qing was also startled. She looked at the shopping bag her daughter brought into the house and asked nervously: "Jiaojiao, why did you buy so many things?"
"These are my cousin's gifts for entering my higher education."
"Qiqi?" Xu Qing was very surprised. The cousins were not usually close to each other.
"Have you borrowed the money?" Sheng Jiaoyang didn't want Xu Qing to know too many details and deliberately changed the topic.
The expression on Xu Qing's face became sad again.
One look at this expression showed that there was no result. Sheng Jiaoyang patiently comforted her with a few words, and gave Xu Qing a facial spa using the skin care products she bought, and also used the professional massage she had learned from her grandfather's masseur. This technique helped Xu Qing relieve her tense emotions.
At night, Xu Qing slept deeply.
This is naturally what Sheng Jiaoyang wants. Firstly, she doesn't want to be woken up by a fright in the middle of the night. Secondly, since she has become Xu Jiaojiao, she will also take over the responsibilities that Xu Jiaojiao has to bear and do a better job.
After enjoying her daughter's caring care, Xu Qing woke up the next morning and her mood became much brighter. After making breakfast early in the morning, she went out to find a job.
Sheng Jiaoyang did not stop Xu Qing from finding a job. She encouraged Xu Qing to do it. She didn't have much time to spend with Xu Qing next. Instead of letting this soft-tempered woman feel sorry for herself alone in this dark room, finding a job was indeed the best way to cheer Xu Qing up immediately.
After eating the poached egg noodles cooked by Xu Qing, Sheng Jiaoyang also got ready and set off.
She couldn't sit back and settle for nothing. Besides, the mountain was already empty, and she couldn't count on a game with an unknown outcome.
In fact, after encouraging Xu Qing to find a job last night, she thought about a lot of things. In the past, she had a lot of wealth and could easily do what she wanted to do. She and Mei Niu jointly created a brand, she held her own art exhibition, and... She used the money from selling paintings to form a dream-building fund. She did many things that others would never be able to achieve in their lifetime, but they all relied on the help of her grandfather. Without her grandfather to rely on, she would not have the money to invest or the connections to hold an art exhibition. Her paintings might be worthless, and she would not be able to help others, because at that time she was just a woman whose mother had passed away early and whose father did not care about her grandparents. It's just a pitiful little thing that was bullied by the stepmother.
Now that she has nothing, she can only rely on her own abilities to obtain material needs. She can no longer open her mouth and stretch her hands to get them.
After getting over the initial confusion, it actually makes me feel quite happy to think about it now. "You can build a career from scratch with your own skills." Just thinking about it makes my blood boil.
Sheng Jiaoyang went around to the stationery store near the school and bought a small drawing board, white paper and simple brushes. He took the remaining twenty yuan to the most prosperous commercial center in the old city. It is close to the university town and has several universities. The old campus is not far from here, and it only takes ten or twenty minutes by bus.
Starting price is ten yuan, no upper limit
Sheng Jiaoyang sat by the flower bed, put the writing paper at his feet, held the drawing board and started doodling.
After the initial graffiti, a person's facial features emerged bit by bit, including handsome eyebrows, a straight nose, and angular lips...
After finishing the last stroke, Sheng Jiaoyang was shocked to realize what he had drawn.
She touched her eyebrows with her fingers and murmured: "Lin Yan..."
"Is this handsome guy a real person?" A sudden voice from beside her woke her up.
Sheng Jiaoyang blinked and turned around, only to see a girl with a ponytail standing next to her, biting a straw and drinking soy milk, staring at the painting in her hand with great interest.
"Beauty, is this handsome guy your man?" The girl blinked and asked curiously.
"Unfortunately, it's not." Sheng Jiaoyang regained his composure.
"That's your crush!"
Sheng Jiaoyang's calm expression cracked.
The girl who revealed the truth took a sip of soy milk and said with a smile: "If there is such a handsome man by my side, I will also have a crush on him."
This is the age of looking at faces! Sheng Jiaoyang smiled. The girl's frankness reminded her of her younger self. How did she fall in love with Lin Yan in the first place? It seems that I fell in love with that gorgeous face from the very beginning...
"Ahem," Sheng Jiaoyang said seriously, "Do you want a sketch?"
"What do you mean it's not capped?"
"As long as it's not less than ten yuan, you can give me as much as you want?"
The girl tilted her head and said cheerfully: "Then draw me a picture and draw this pose for me." As she said that, the girl approached the branches of flowers stretching out in the flower bed and pretended to be smelling the fragrance.
"Please hold this for ten seconds." Sheng Jiaoyang's brush was already sliding rapidly.
"Ten seconds?" The girl thought she heard wrongly and turned around to make sure.
"Don't move, ten seconds is enough."
Ten, nine, eight... three, two.
"One." The girl finished counting and walked back to Sheng Jiaoyang excitedly. When she saw the outline of her appearance on the paper, she opened her eyes wide in surprise. Looking at Sheng Jiaoyang, who is no longer a model and can still write like flowing water without any stagnation, the girl is extremely impressed.
Today, when the amount of information is as large as the brain and the capacity of the brain is as small as a bean, many people cannot remember what they said one second and the next. Memorizing a few numbers feels like solving a world problem. It is difficult to imagine that a person can just use Memorizing another person and silently drawing them in ten seconds is no longer a skill, it is a talent, a talent that others cannot envy.
"It's so awesome!" Several melon-eaters from around who had witnessed it one after another came together to watch the fun.
Sheng Jiaoyang finished the last stroke and signed his name in the lower right corner as usual. As soon as he finished writing, he heard the voice of the girl next to him asking.
"The design of your artistic signature is really beautiful. It's the word 'Scorching Sun', right? Did you design it? Can you design one for me?"
"You asked so many questions, which one do you want me to answer?" Sheng Jiaoyang looked at the girl speechlessly. Such a big sketch actually praised the signature in the corner. Should she laugh or cry
"Uh, help me design a signature. As long as it looks good, I'll pay extra." The girl winked in a pretense of cuteness.
In order to earn the initial capital, Miss Shanda, who had to imitate others selling paintings on the street, would not miss any opportunity to make money. She asked the girls to write their names on the white paper, asked the girls what they thought, and brushed the words next to the girls' names. A few strokes drew the artistic style of the girl's name.
"Are you satisfied, classmate Liu Lu?" Sheng Jiaoyang pointed his finger at the artistic signature.
Liu Lu's Lu character has many strokes, but under Sheng Jiaoyang's pen it becomes simple and artistic, with a fresh and fancy beauty.
"Satisfied, super satisfied!" The girl named Liu Lu smiled from ear to ear. She willingly took out a piece of rich gold from her wallet and handed it to Sheng Jiaoyang.
Although it is completely incomparable with the money she made from selling paintings before, this was the first time she earned money from selling works regardless of her status. This thin piece of paper money also became dear to Sheng Jiaoyang. Only then did she In a true sense, we break away from treating money as numbers and enter the world of ordinary people.
"Ah, I forgot to tell you that the picture you drew of me looks much better than my own." Liu Lu took out two pieces of paper, took out her mobile phone, took a few photos of her sketches and artistic signatures, and sent them to Moments. While saying to Sheng Jiaoyang.
Hearing this, Sheng Jiaoyang raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "What I painted is you in my eyes."
Liu Lu was stunned for a moment. The short-haired girl in front of her looked smaller than her, but her curved eyes were filled with stars, making her particularly attractive.
