Chapter 508: Li Hua’s Attempt

After memorizing the directions, she went to the small shop across the street, run by a woman named Gui Hua. Gui Hua was around the same age as Li Hua, but she looked older and was not as attractive.

When Gui Hua saw Li Hua coming to use the phone, she stood at the door, cracking sunflower seeds in her hand. Her eyes occasionally darted towards Li Hua, comparing their appearances. She was neither thinner nor taller than Gui Hua, so why was she more attractive?

It must be because of the light makeup, Gui Hua thought with a huff. A country woman wearing makeup, she wondered who Li Hua was trying to seduce. She didn’t want to let her use the phone, but business was business.

“Yes, next Saturday then. Thank you very much for the invitation. We will cooperate well. See you on Saturday!”

Phone calls were expensive these days, so Li Hua always kept her conversations brief. She quickly confirmed the details and hung up, noticing the unfriendly look in Gui Hua’s eyes.

After the call, she went to pay for the phone usage and took the opportunity to strike up a conversation with Gui Hua. “How much for a minute?”

She remembered her sister Gu Zi’s advice: there were no permanent enemies, only potential friends. If someone couldn’t be persuaded, then a more forceful approach could be used.

She felt that Gui Hua was someone she could try to win over. After all, her shop was right across from the food store. It was better to be friends than enemies.

“0.9 yuan.” Gui Hua replied without looking at her. She had heard that Li Hua was married, and her husband worked at a pig farm in Daqing Village. It was a good job, yet Li Hua chose to run a business in town, dressing up like a seductress every day. Who was she trying to attract? It was so improper.

Li Hua handed over the nine cents and didn’t leave immediately. She looked at Gui Hua and said, “Gui Hua, I just realized that your facial features are quite striking. If you wore a little makeup, you would definitely look good.”

In truth, Li Hua was nervous saying this. After all, she was pointing out someone else’s shortcomings, and it could easily upset Gui Hua. But in human interactions, conflicts were inevitable. She couldn’t avoid speaking her mind for fear of conflict.

Indeed, upon hearing these words, Gui Hua tossed the sunflower seed shells in her hand onto the ground. Her eyes were wide as she glared at Li Hua, “Just because you’re pretty, you think you’re something special? What does it matter to you if I don’t wear makeup? A woman who can work and bear children is stronger than anything else. What’s the point of makeup? To become a prostitute? I won’t stoop to pleasing men.”

Gui Hua’s words were harsher with each sentence, causing Li Hua’s cheeks to flush. However, she had no intention of backing down. Having learned from Gu Zi for so long, she had picked up some of his techniques. Gu Zi had also told her that doing business meant dealing with many different people. It was just Gui Hua now, nothing to be afraid of.

Taking a quiet breath, Li Hua, though feeling uncomfortable, continued to respond to Gui Hua with a smile, “You misunderstood me, Gui Hua. Why do you think that if you look good, it’s just to please men? Aren’t you happy with yourself? If we become more beautiful, we can still bear children.

“I didn’t mean anything bad. I wanted to tell you that I used to have insufficient vitality, and I looked listless. My sister taught me some methods to nourish my vitality and take care of my skin. My skin has been getting better and better. If you want, you can also take care of your skin, wear makeup, and become better, more beautiful than now. Don’t you want that?”

As Li Hua spoke, she was somewhat at a loss for words. She wasn’t as eloquent as Gu Zi. These were all things she had heard from Gu Zi, and she couldn’t remember exactly how he had said them. But the gist was there, and she didn’t know if Gui Hua would take it in.

If Gui Hua didn’t listen and scolded her again, then she would really lose face today.

Gui Hua looked at the woman patiently explaining to her and began to realize something. It seemed that she really wanted to tell her something. Could she really become more beautiful?

This was worth a try. After all, she had nothing to lose. But her tone was still fierce, “Can you really tell me how to take care of myself? I’m telling you, I’m not easily fooled.”

Seeing Gui Hua’s attitude, Li Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief. Gui Hua seemed fierce, but thankfully, she had persevered, “Of course, do you have a pen and paper? I’ll write down the method for you. As long as you follow my method, I guarantee you’ll have a surprise in a month.”
