Ji Yue was surprisingly efficient. She had only talked about it in the morning.
In the afternoon, she received a package from home.
It was a box, and on the receipt was written Tang Tang's signature.
The sender was Ji Yue.
Tang Tang had no choice but to sign for the package. When she opened the box, she saw that it was filled with bottles and jars that she had never seen before.
Although there were words on each bottle,
The words on it were not Chinese. Anyway, she could not understand a single word.
She guessed that it was made by foreigners.
Tang Tang had no choice but to search for a note in the box.
In the end, she found a piece of paper. On it was written what was in each bottle, as well as the usage of each product. After Tang Tang finished reading it, she had to admit that Ji Xiaozhuo had found the right person.
This was because the things that Ji Yue had sent were simply the right medicine for the problem.
Most of the bottles and jars in the box were skincare products for the skin. Some were for rejuvenation.
Some were for whitening, and some were for hydration.
There were all kinds of things.
Tang Tang was surprised. She did not know that there were so many things to wipe the face.
Other than the face,
There were also skincare products that were specially for the hair.
They could make the hair smooth and thick.
Ji Yue had even written at the bottom of the paper that she had personally used these products. The effects were very good, so she could use them without worry.
Tang Tang was really grateful to Ji Yue for her kindness, but she could not accept these things with a clear conscience. Just by looking at these products, she could tell that they were not cheap. They were foreign products. Perhaps they were especially expensive. How could she accept so much money?
Even if she wanted to use these things to become beautiful, she should spend her own money to buy them.
Tang Tang did not touch these things. Instead, she asked Ji Xiaozhuo for Ji Yue's phone number. She guessed that Ji Yue would call her when she was not busy at night.
Ji Yue picked up the call very quickly. He knew who it was even before he spoke. He seemed to have guessed who it was. "Tang Tang?"
"Mm," Tang Tang replied. "Ji Yue, it's me. Am I bothering you?"
"No, no, I'm at home. If you have something to say, just say it." Ji Yue, who was soaking her feet, said as she restlessly touched Gu Changan's face with her wet feet. Gu Changan glared at her and grabbed her feet to dry them with a cloth.
Hearing that Ji Yue was fine, Tang Tang said, "Ji Yue, I called you to tell you about the things you sent me. These things are too expensive. I really can't accept them."
Ji Yue sighed indifferently. "It's fine. These things aren't worth much. They aren't as expensive as you say. Just take them and use them. Don't be so polite."
Tang Tang could not really treat Ji Yue as an outsider. Whether it was her or the original owner, they did not have a close relationship. "No, no, I can't accept something I didn't do anything for. Ji Yue, thank you for your kindness, but I really can't accept these things. Please take them back."
When Ji Yue saw this, he knew that Tang Tang was really unwilling to accept these things for free. Hence, he rolled his eyes and said, "I've already sent them out. How can I take them back? Besides, it's troublesome to send them back and forth. Who knows, they might even break during the transportation. How about this? If you really feel bad about it, why don't you make me something delicious? We can consider it an exchange. How about that? I really miss your culinary skills. "
"This …" Tang Tang felt that a little bit of food was not worth the price of so many skincare products. She was the one who got the better end of the deal. However, if she continued to be polite, it would be detrimental to their friendship. She could only nod and say, "Alright, I'll make you something to eat. After it's done, I'll bring Xiaozhuo over to you."
Ji Yue straightforwardly agreed. "Alright, then it's settled. Don't worry and use those things."
After Ji Yue hung up the phone, Gu Changan curiously asked, "When did you and Tang Tang become so close? What did you send her? "
Ji Yue giggled and put her feet into Gu Changan's embrace. She acted coquettishly and said, "Hubby, help me massage them. My feet hurt ~"
Gu Changan helplessly and dotingly used his finger to point at her. He skillfully massaged her feet. However, his mouth scolded, "I told you not to wear such high heels to work, but you insisted on wearing them. Every night when you came home, you would tell me that your feet hurt. You should just die from the pain."
"Aiya, how would a straight man like you understand a woman's pursuit of beauty?" Ji Yue pouted and changed the topic. "Xiaozhuo called me today. He said that he wanted to ask me if there was a way to make his mother more beautiful. At that time, I was amused by this little baby. However, this little guy rarely asks me for help. Of course, I have to give it my all. So, I sent all the skincare products I use to Tang Tang."
Gu Changan nodded and continued massaging her feet.
"Hubby, let me ask you something. Have you seen how Tang Tang looked like before? Has she always been like this … like this?" Ji Yue was too embarrassed to say the word "ugly".
When Gu Changan heard this, he recalled his first impression of Tang Tang. At that time, it was when Ji Yan and Tang Tang registered their marriage for the first time. However, he did not remember how Tang Tang looked like at that time. He shook his head and said, "I don't remember clearly. I don't think she was that beautiful, but she wasn't as ugly as she is now." If she was beautiful or ugly, he should have remembered. It was only possible that the Tang Tang at that time was very ordinary, so he could not remember her.
Ji Yue thought for a while and said, "Then Tang Tang should be able to become more beautiful after taking care of her skin. After all, Xiaozhuo is so good-looking. Her mother can't be too ugly."
Gu Changan did not answer. He stood up and carried Ji Yue into the room. "Well, don't blindly think about other people's looks. If you have time, think about your husband's looks."
Ji Yue laughed.
**
On the other side, Tang Tang breathed a sigh of relief. She put all the bottles and jars that Ji Yue gave her on the dressing table in the room. Then, she thought about how to thank Ji Yue. Of course, she had to make some food. However, a little food was not enough to express her gratitude. She still wanted to give Ji Yue something. Otherwise, she would feel guilty if she accepted such expensive things for nothing.
However, after thinking about it, she did not have anything that she could give him. She had no money, no jewelry, and did not know how to make money. It was impossible for her to buy something good.
What should she do?
After thinking about it, Tang Tang could only think of making something for Ji Yue. However, other than her cooking skills, the only thing that she could show was her needlework. Should she embroider a handkerchief for Ji Yue?
Thinking of this, Tang Tang immediately shook her head and rejected the idea. No, no. She could not show her embroidery skills to others. Otherwise, she would be exposed. She only found out that almost no one in this era knew how to embroider after watching a cultural heritage program on TV some time ago. People who knew how to embroider were very rare. It was impossible for the original owner to know how to do it. Therefore, if she suddenly took out an embroidery, it would be hard for people not to notice.
People would believe that she knew how to cook. However, no one would believe that she knew how to embroider.
If she could not do embroidery, then other needlework should not be possible, right? After all, she did not know if the original owner knew how to do needlework.
Thinking of this, Tang Tang sighed. Her mood was a little depressed. Needlework was one of the important standards to measure a woman's virtue. Every girl had to learn this from a young age. However, it was basically lost here. It was really unexpected.
She also started learning needlework when she was five years old. After learning for so many years, not to mention the hardships, this skill was her only advantage. If it could not be used here, then she really could not show any advantages.
Tang Tang suddenly felt that she knew too little about the original owner. She really needed to know what the original owner knew and did not know. Otherwise, it would be easy to be exposed in the future.
Thinking of this, Tang Tang suddenly stood up and began to search the corners of the room. She had to find the things left behind by the original owner to learn more.
Unfortunately, she searched the room but did not find anything. She did not know if it was not there or if it was hidden too deep.
Ji Xiaozhuo saw that Tang Tang was busy and asked curiously, "Mom, what are you doing? What are you looking for? "
Tang Tang did not know what she was looking for, so she could only say, "Mom is looking for mom's things. I don't remember where I put them."
Ji Xiaozhuo blinked and looked at Tang Tang. Then he suddenly turned and ran outside. After a while, he came back and handed a folder to Tang Tang, "Mom, this is for you."
Tang Tang did not understand, "What is this?"
Ji Xiaozhuo poured the things inside onto the bed and said, "These are the things mom threw away. Grandma Li picked them all up and said they could not be thrown away."
Hearing that it was the original owner who threw it, Tang Tang immediately took a look. The first thing that attracted her attention was a red booklet. On the cover was written: People's Republic of China Marriage Certificate. Opening it, there was a photo of her and Ji Yan.
It was actually a marriage certificate with the baby's father! Tang Tang knew that this little red booklet was equivalent to their marriage certificate. It represented the two of them becoming husband and wife. This was a very important thing. She did not expect the original owner to throw it away. No wonder she had never seen it in the room.
God, if Aunt Li did not pick it up, it would be gone now.
Tang Tang was now very grateful to Aunt Li. Fortunately, she was here. In the future, she would take good care of it and not lose it even if she died.
After looking at the marriage certificate, Tang Tang continued to look through the other things. In addition to a ring, there were a few other certificates that she did not understand. She was going to look them up later.
Finally, there was a blue booklet that also attracted her attention. Because on the cover of the booklet was written: A University's Bachelor's Certificate.
Tang Tang knew that A University was a very good university. It was probably as good as the Imperial College. The students here all wanted to go. Those who entered to study here had to do very well.
She did not expect that the original owner had gone to a university, and it was such a good university. She thought that the original owner was useless, but it turned out that she was not.
Tang Tang quickly opened the cover and looked through the things inside. There was a piece of paper inside. On it was written the name Tang Tang and something about the Art Institute's Fashion Design major.
Tang Tang studied it for a long time, but she could not understand it. So she asked Ji Xiaozhuo, "Baby, what is the Art Institute? What is the Fashion Design major?"
Ji Xiaozhuo blinked and was dumbfounded. He did not know either.
But Ji Xiaozhuo had a good habit. If he did not understand, he would immediately ask. So he called again. This time, the person he asked for help was Zhuo Ji. Zhuo Ji thought that Ji Xiaozhuo was a child who was curious, so he explained to him very seriously.
Tang Tang was listening on the side. Naturally, she heard Zhuo Ji's explanation. After hearing it, her eyes lit up. She wanted to roll on the bed like Ji Xiaozhuo.
The things that the original owner learned in college were related to making clothes. That was to say, the original owner knew how to make clothes, which was needlework. Then she did not have to pretend that she did not know needlework. She could keep her only two advantages!
God really took care of her. Tang Tang was very grateful to God at this moment. But she was even more grateful to the original owner. Thank you for learning this!
In this case, she could make a pair of shoes for Ji Yue. Although it was not that valuable, it was the best thing she could take out now.
After knowing such useful information, Tang Tang felt relaxed. She was in a good mood. Only then did she have the mood to study the skincare products that Ji Yue gave her. She did not know if these things would work. Could they make her as beautiful as Ji Yue? When she thought of Ji Yue's white and tender skin and elegant long hair, Tang Tang's heart became restless. She could not wait to try these things.
However, there were still some injuries on her face. She needed to apply ointment, so she could not apply these. So Tang Tang could only try the skincare products first. It was necessary to fix her hair well. A woman's hair was as important as her face. She could not bear to have her hair look like withered grass.
That night, Tang Tang used Ji Yue's skincare products to do her hair well. She washed, applied, and bandaged her hair. The whole process took about two hours. Ji Xiaozhuo could not take it anymore. He felt that women were too scary.
Tang Tang did not find it troublesome at all. After happily completing the entire process, she did not know if it was an illusion, but she felt that her hair looked a little smoother and prettier.
However, whether it was an illusion or not, Tang Tang suddenly felt that she had a chance to become more beautiful.
That night, Tang Tang had a dream. In the dream, she became an extremely beautiful woman. She was slender and graceful, with long hair. Her skin was fair and beautiful, and she had an outstanding temperament. She wore a white dress and looked like a fairy.
Ji Xiaozhuo looked at her in a daze. He even forgot to eat the snacks in his hand. He ran over to her with his short legs and hugged her leg. He began to praise her. "Mommy, you're so beautiful."
Tang Tang smiled shyly. She bent down and kissed the little guy. "Thank you, baby."
At this moment, Ji Yan came in wearing his military uniform. He was stunned when he saw Tang Tang in a white dress. He stared at her without blinking. A trace of amazement flashed across his eyes. After a long while, he seemed to be able to confirm that this was his wife. He slowly walked over to her and reached out to touch her face. He murmured, "Tang Tang, you're so beautiful."
Tang Tang was so shy that she did not dare to look at him. Her face was as red as a peach blossom.
Ji Yan was mesmerized by Tang Tang's beautiful appearance. He could not help but slowly move closer to her and kiss her on the lips.
Tang Tang was so shy that her toes curled up. However, she could not help but laugh.
"Mommy, Mommy! Wake up! The sun is shining on your butt! "
Tang Tang was awakened by a series of shaking and shouting. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Ji Xiaozhuo's little chubby face in front of her. The little guy was looking at her with his little brows furrowed.
Tang Tang was still a little confused. She murmured, "What's wrong, baby?"
Ji Xiaozhuo saw that Tang Tang was awake. He heaved a sigh of relief and threw himself into Tang Tang's arms. "Mommy, you worried me to death. Why were you laughing when you were sleeping? Your laughter was so scary. Mommy, did you have a nightmare? But don't you cry when you have a nightmare? "
Tang Tang froze. She immediately recalled the dream she had just had. Her face immediately turned red. She felt ashamed and stammered, "No … Mommy didn't have a nightmare."
Ji Xiaozhuo touched Tang Tang's forehead. "Mommy, why is your face red? Do you have a fever?"
Tang Tang held back her embarrassment and waved her hand. "No, no, no. Mommy doesn't have a fever. Mommy is just a little hot. I'll be fine in a while."
Ji Xiaozhuo was relieved. He gave Tang Tang a light kiss before jumping out of bed and running to the bathroom. "Mommy, I'm going to brush my teeth. Get up quickly."
It was not until Ji Xiaozhuo was completely out of sight that Tang Tang wailed silently. She reached out to cover her face. She was so embarrassed that she could not put into words. She actually dreamed that Ji Yan did that to her! How could she be so shameless!
