Ji Mingyue immediately smiled and grabbed them. “I want them. Of course, I want them. I’ll give you a few more presents next time. I’ll keep the clothes, hehe!”
They were just too pretty, she could not bear to refuse them!
Gu Qingyao laughed, “Hurry up and try them on. See if they fit.”
She opened the door to the cloakroom and gestured for Ji Mingyue to go in.
Ji Mingyue received another shock when she saw it!
“There… there’s another room here? There are so many clothes!”
The cloakroom was very large, bigger than a room in most houses. There was a cupboard along one wall and a shelf that was just for hats and shoes.
In an era where resources were scarce, very few people had so many clothes and shoes. Many of the rich young ladies in the capital might not have all these.
Ji Mingyue was shocked.
Gu Qingyao said, “I’ve been away for so long. When I came back, they were desperate to make up for the six years, so there’s quite a lot! There’s some more that I bought overseas! Try your clothes on.”
“Oh, oh!”
Ji Mingyue hurriedly changed into the clothes that Gu Qingyao had given her. When she came out, it became clear that a girl who had dressed up just did not look the same.
She was already pretty, but with her features enhanced and a simple but elegant outfit, she looked even more beautiful.
Besides, after applying make-up, she looked much better and prettier!
“You’re beautiful! That’s more like it! Here, give me a smile!”
“Hehe…”
Ji Mingyue was so amused she burst out laughing. Although she was rather embarrassed, she could tell from the mirror that she was really gorgeous!
They were talking when Gu Fangting knocked on the door and entered. She was startled to see Ji Mingyue, who looked like a completely different person!
Gu Qingyao was delighted. “Well? I’m amazing, right! I have great makeup skills!”
Gu Fangting immediately smiled and looked at Gu Qingyao coaxingly, “Older Cousin, can you apply some makeup for me too?”
Gu Qingyao had given her a set of makeup, but she did not have Gu Qingyao’s skills and had not managed to master them.
Gu Qingyao laughed. “No problem, come over.”
Gu Fangting sat in front of the dresser in delight and waited for her older cousin to serve her. Just as Gu Qingyao was about to finish, Wen Ruyu came looking for Gu Qingyao for a chat. She beamed when she saw such pretty girls!
“Wow, you look wonderful. Look at all of you. You’re like flowers. Let me see, let me see!”
Gu Qingyao had a brilliant idea. “Grandma, why don’t I apply some makeup for you? I guarantee you will be the prettiest and most fashionable old woman in the entire capital.”
Wen Ruyu, “…”
“Me?” Wen Ruyu took some time to react. “I’m so old. How can I wear makeup? I’ll look like an old hag.”
Gu Qingyao hurriedly finished Gu Fangting’s make-up, then dragged Wen Ruyu to the dressing table. “What old hag? There’s no law that old people cannot wear makeup. Grandma, you’ve had such a hard life. Now we have everything. You have so many children and grandchildren and don’t need to worry about food. It’s time to enjoy your golden years. Let me give you a makeover, and you’ll look thirty years younger!”
Her grandma had been a pampered young lady. Even her many years in the countryside could not alter her air of elegance. Some makeup would make her stunning!
Gu Qingyao carefully applied makeup for Wen Ruyu and then went to find her grandmother something a little more fashionable. Wen Ruyu was beaming after her makeover. Gu Fangting and Ji Mingyue could not stop exclaiming!
Gu Qingyao was over the moon!
“Grandma, hurry, hurry. Go out and show them. Hahaha!”
Wen Ruyu’s eyes shone and she looked even more excited than Gu Qingyao. “Let’s go, let’s go. We’ll go now!”
With that, she dragged Gu Qingyao along and headed outside.
