Chapter 179: Hui, Tie Up The Hair!
While the beastmen were busy making materials for house construction, the first batch of vegetables in Su Ran’s vegetable garden had a bountiful harvest!
The first batch of planted housheng vegetable and wild cabbage had already grown to the point where they must be eaten; if not eaten soon, they would go bad.
Su Ran chopped a lot and sent some to Bai Bai, Xiao San, and the others; she also sent a little to Yao Yao, Xiao Ju, and A Huo, but since they usually weren’t too interested in vegetables, Su Ran didn’t send much.
Then to several neighboring households nearby the house, Su Ran also sent a little.
And besides the housheng vegetable and wild cabbage, vinegar fruit, chili fruit, and finger onion were also continuously growing new fruits. The new fruits grew densely and plentifully, but these were all used as side dishes, and they couldn’t eat that much at once.
With no other choice, Su Ran picked the earliest grown chili fruits, dried them for storage, while the vinegar fruit and finger onion were all sun-dried and ground into powder to be used directly when stir-frying dishes.
After the first batch of vegetables matured, Su Ran left a bit of the initially sown housheng vegetable and wild cabbage in the vegetable garden to continue growing.
These were intended to be kept for seeds.
On the ground that had been completely harvested, she sowed half radish seeds again.
The remaining places continued to be planted with some housheng vegetable and wild cabbage.
When Su Ran sowed seeds the second time, the beastmen’s house-building project had not yet reached the step of making stone bricks.
Although there was already Su Ran’s demonstration as an example beforehand, when actually doing it themselves, they found it exceptionally difficult.
But Su Ran actually admired these beastmen’s perseverance a lot.
Once they decided they wanted to build a house, they really could devote all their time except for eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet to building the house.
It was like a nearly stubborn persistence.
Sometimes when Su Ran was busily going in and out at home, looking from dozens of meters away at the figures of those few neighboring households sitting in the shade of trees making stone bricks, she always felt that their actions and expressions were very devout.
It was as if learning to build a house was an incredibly fortunate thing for them.
Summer breeze warm.
Evenings were still okay, but these days the daytime temperature, especially around noon, was gradually rising.
Hui had already fully returned to his big shorts walking-the-world lifestyle.
Recently, Su Ran also felt her hair was getting a bit long and hot.
When she first arrived in this world, her hair was only just below her shoulders.
Her hair originally grew fast; by last winter, it had already reached the middle of her back, but since it was winter then, she felt that having it longer was warmer, so she hadn’t cut it.
And now the hair was even longer than before, making washing it very troublesome.
At this point, she actually envied the beastmen’s genes.
Because after they reached adulthood, their hair only increased or decreased in quantity, but the length wouldn’t grow anymore.
Extremely convenient!
In the end, Su Ran used the small scissors from the equipment package to cut her hair bit by bit herself.
While cutting, she followed the tutorial she had seen in online videos before, combing all her hair to the front, tying it with animal hide rope, then using the scissors to neatly cut below where the rope was tied.
The video said that after cutting like this and combing the hair back behind the head, it would automatically have layers.
And after Su Ran finished cutting, it indeed had layers.
It was just that because Su Ran’s scissors weren’t good to use, when cutting the hair, she couldn’t cut it flat in one go, so the layers looked a bit choppy.
But Su Ran couldn’t see it herself; instead, it was Hui who, after Su Ran finished cutting her hair, stared at her freshly done hairstyle for a long time, and after looking, couldn’t help reaching out to touch the ends of Su Ran’s newly cut hair.
Only until Su Ran tied up her now just-below-shoulder hair again with animal hide rope did he withdraw his curious gaze.
After Su Ran finished tying her own hair, she saw Hui’s hair ends similarly hanging on his neck, stunned for a moment, then raised her brow, took a new one from her small box of animal hide ropes: “Hui, come here.”
“Wu?”
Hui raised his head in doubt, but his feet had already taken two steps this way.
Su Ran pointed at the chair beside her and said, “Sit down, I’ll tie your hair.”
“Tie hair?”
Hui sat on the chair, his gaze following Su Ran’s words to her hair tied into a meatball shape at the back of her head.
Hui’s hair was very much like the long wolf tail hairstyle that was popular for a time in Su Ran’s original world.
The longest part of his hair reached the middle of his back between the shoulder blades.
His hair was light brown mixed with a bit of very pale yellow, even some of the yellow hair looked a bit white at first glance.
Probably because of his healthy body, reflected in his hair, Hui’s hair quality was also very good.
Su Ran’s fingertips grabbed through Hui’s smooth hair strands; it was to the extent that it could be combed smooth directly with hands without a comb.
In the end, what she made for Hui was the most popular half-up style in the wolf tail hairstyle.
The tied-up part was even rolled by her into a small meatball head shape.
After tying it up, Su Ran walked in front of Hui first to check her styling results.
As a result, this one glance made even her, who was already so familiar with Hui “inside and out” that she couldn’t be more familiar, suddenly feel shy!
Who said men don’t need to style themselves?!
Su Ran now felt like she had made a huge profit!
Although usual Hui already looked very handsome and dashing, but because his hair was usually loose, the front bangs and sideburns were always occasionally blocked by the front stray hairs, so although handsome, the long hair strands always felt a bit cumbersome.
And before, although Su Ran had tied Hui’s hair, it was for convenience, tied directly at the ends, and not much of the front bangs were tied up.
So no big change was noticeable.
And now, much of the hair at Hui’s sideburns was suddenly combed up, the front bangs thinned out a lot, his originally sharp jawline clearly revealed, those pair of light green eyes seemed to widen even more with the hair tied up, and in a blink, the feeling he gave instantly changed!
It was as if from a worldly disdainful playboy, in a blink, he became a gentle-as-jade young man.
Su Ran’s gaze held undisguisable amazement!
If in her original world, a boyfriend with Hui’s looks would probably only be something she could imagine.
With her personality, she wouldn’t dare to be with such an attractive-looking boyfriend.
Because she really didn’t want to fight guerrilla warfare with all the rotten peaches attracted by such a face.
But now it was different.
The face in front of her, this body, had delivered itself to her door.
Su Ran looked at Hui, whose entire face was revealed because his hair was tied up, her mood gradually shifting from amazement to rippling.
She lowered her head to meet Hui’s green eyes that were a bit uneasy due to confusion about her mood change, her heart pounding in her chest, then she reached out to cup Hui’s cheeks, slowly lowering her head to kiss him…
