The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 326: Two Hairpins
Yun Jiao fell in love with the jade hairpin almost at first sight.
It was so beautiful.
In her previous life, her grandmother also gave her several jade bracelets, but she had little opportunity to wear them, so they were kept at the bottom of a box at home.
She only carried a jade Buddha pendant with her.
People said that jade could ward off disasters, and she didn’t know whether her miraculous reincarnation experience was due to that piece of jade.
The cool hairpin warmed gradually in her hand.
Yun Jiao happily said, "Thank you, Third Brother."
By convention, the hairpin for the coming-of-age ceremony should be given by parents or elders, but Mrs. Li would never think of that.
Yun Jiao wondered if Third Brother considered himself her elder; after all, in terms of family hierarchy, she was his sister-in-law.
In terms of age, he was three or four years older than her.
Jiang Youzhi, seeing the light in Yun Jiao’s eyes, smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
"By the way, don’t worry about that matter, I have already found out a lot; I will go out this afternoon to find out more."
Yun Jiao nodded to Jiang Youzhi again before turning to go back to her room.
Once back in her room, she placed the hairpin in the medicine cabinet. It was too valuable; she didn’t dare to wear it out. With so many people in the shop, who knew when someone might just snatch it from her head.
After leaving the room, Mrs. Chen mysteriously beckoned her into another room.
Then Mrs. Chen also took out a hairpin from her bosom.
The hairpin was a green jade lotus hairpin. Mrs. Chen led her to sit by the window, brought out her own dressing box, and proceeded to untie Yun Jiao’s hair to style it.
While combing, Mrs. Chen said, "Back when I was with the young lady, she had her coming-of-age ceremony at fifteen, and her parents arranged it for her."
"Now, we don’t have those means, so mother will just comb your hair and put on a hairpin to consider it done."
Yun Jiao’s eyes moistened slightly, "Thank you, Mother."
Mrs. Chen chuckled, "What hairstyle should we go for?"
"A lily bun? A spirit-snake bun? A flying fairy bun?"
"Oh dear, I haven’t styled such complex hairstyles in so long; I’m starting to forget."
Yun Jiao laughed, "Just do any style, Mother."
Every morning, I just use a wooden hairpin to pin it up, and I haven’t even heard of these hairstyles Mrs. Chen mentioned.
In the countryside, there were girls who loved dressing up and would style their hair beautifully, but being uneducated, they wouldn’t know these fancy names.
Mrs. Chen thought for a moment, "Let’s do a spirit-snake bun."
While she styled, she dipped into a bowl of shaving water on the table.
Shaving water was slightly sticky; using it made hair less likely to fall apart and easier to style, equivalent to ancient hair gel.
Mrs. Chen’s skill was still sharp, and she quickly finished the hairstyle, with the spirit-snake bun perched high on Yun Jiao’s head, complemented by the green jade lotus hairpin, giving a lively and elegant look, unexpectedly well-suited to Yun Jiao.
Mrs. Chen adjusted the angle of the copper mirror on the table and asked, "Does it look good?"
Yun Jiao nodded, hugging Mrs. Chen from behind, "It looks wonderful, thank you, Mother."
Mrs. Chen embraced Yun Jiao, patting her back.
With deep affection, she thought, despite Yun Jiao being so capable, she was still just a young girl who had just come of age.
Yun Jiao with her new hairstyle stepped out, and Ah Hu in the yard first stared at her head for a moment, then laughed, "Looks good."
After walking a few steps, she ran into Jiang Youzhi. Jiang Youzhi’s lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but Yun Jiao jumped in first, "The hairpin you gave is too precious; I’ll wear it on special occasions. This one is from Mother."
