Chapter 69 Going to the Yun Family for the Birthday Banquet
Seeing that Yun Mo finished the call so quickly, Zeng Fang casually said with concern: "Momo, it's rare for you to call home, why don't you talk for a while? I usually call my brother for half an hour.
I still feel like I can’t finish talking.”
Yun Mo sighed, "I would like to chat for a while, but my mother is reluctant. She thinks the phone bill is too expensive."
Zeng Fang thought for a while and said, "How about this? Next time you go to my house for a beating, it doesn't matter how long you want."
The reason why making phone calls in this era is expensive is mainly because of the difficulty and high installation costs. In fact, the monthly rental fee for a landline is quite cheap, only 4 or 5 yuan a month.
Yunmo went to the telecommunications bureau to consult and found out that the cost of installing a landline phone at home was more than 2,000. Moreover, after paying the money, you had to queue up. It would take at least a year or two for the installation to be completed.
Although Zeng Fang had good intentions, Yun Mo still politely rejected the other party's kindness.
It's okay to go to Zeng's house to make phone calls occasionally, but she can't go often. Even if she gives money, it's not good. After all, they are not open for business.

Yun Mo asked from Huang Zhiqiu that the big white Erbai she raised was still in its infancy.
Under normal circumstances, geese will start laying eggs when they are six months old. Counting the days, it will be almost a month away.
Geese usually lay eggs at night. In order for the geese to develop a good and regular egg-laying habit, they need to make a nest for the geese with straw or the like.
Yun Mo hired a carpenter to build a three- to four-square-meter wooden house next to a small pond. The inside of the house was paved with a thick layer of straw, and a one-meter-wide circular sandpit was built around the outside.
I don’t know if it was because of drinking too much spiritual spring water, but Da Bai Er Bai became more and more spiritual. When Yun Mo pointed at the sand pit and told them that they would have to poop in the sand pit from now on, the two big geese actually
He obediently ran into the sand pit and squatted down to express his feelings to Yun Mo. They understood, which made Yun Mo extremely happy.
In order to ensure that the two geese have sufficient exercise, Yunmo will take the two geese out for a walk in the morning and evening when they have nothing to do, and sometimes take them to the wet market to buy vegetables.
At first, the vendors in the vegetable market were very curious about the combination of one person and two geese, and would say hello to them every time they saw them.
And every time someone said hello, the two geese would stretch their necks and "quack" at each other, which made the vendors marvel and joke that the two geese raised by Yun Mo were about to become sperms.
Yun Mo always smiles but says nothing.
She couldn't tell whether they would become sperm or not. Anyway, these two guys just drank a lot of her spiritual spring water.
What made Yun Mo dumbfounded the most was that the two guys were now quarreling. They refused to drink ordinary well water and only drank spiritual spring water.
After dinner in the morning, Yun Mo took the two geese to a nearby jewelry shop.
Today is Jiang Yu's birthday. She came over a few days ago to order a gold bracelet with a plain ring, intending to give it to him as a birthday gift.
The total weight of the gold bracelet is 40 grams, and the craftsmanship is very simple. The total price is about 900 yuan.
In addition to the gold bracelet, Yunmo also ordered two matchbox-sized silver nameplates for Dabai Erbai. The silver plates not only had Dabai Erbai's name, date of birth, and home address to prevent the two geese from getting away.
leave.
After returning home, Yunmo found two red ribbons and tied the nameplates around the necks of the two geese.
After fastening the nameplate, Yun Mo patted the heads of the two big geese dearly, "I'm going out today. You guys stay at home and watch. If a bad guy comes to the door, use your big beaks to peck him hard."
, do you know?"
"Quack!"
knew!
Yun Mo first went to Zeng's house.
Jiang Yu's birthday party was held very grandly. Almost all the prominent families in Jiang City received invitations, and the Zeng family was certainly no exception.
Although Li Zhijie has been brought to justice, Zeng Fang has not completely escaped the shadow of the violation. Today's banquet will be a crucial step for Zeng Fang to overcome her psychological barriers.
As long as today's hurdle can be successfully passed, Zeng Fang will truly have passed this hurdle.
"Momo, you came just in time, I don't know what to wear."
As soon as Yun Mo entered the front door of Zeng's house, she was pulled to the room on the second floor by Zeng Fang.
Seeing all kinds of beautiful dresses covering the bed, Yun Mo could understand Zeng Fang's difficulty in choosing.
In her previous life, she was also an upright young lady from a wealthy family. The area of the cloakroom alone was larger than the entire second floor of the Zeng family, and there were countless high-end exclusive dresses.
However, she rarely worries about what to wear. She always takes the stylist home directly and lets the stylist tailor her image.
Oddly enough, girls often worry about what to wear for themselves, but choosing for their friends is easy and straightforward.
After asking Zeng Fang clearly about her expected effects and requirements, Yun Mo chose a slim-fitting black dress with a small V-neck for her.
Zeng Fang has always been troubled by her large breasts. After that incident, she became more sensitive and did not want to receive attention because of her figure, especially from the opposite sex.
The black dress is low-key, slimming, and the V-neck has a bow tie. It is sweet and beautiful, but it can also block Zeng Fang's somewhat overly plump breasts.
After matching the clothes, Yunmo helped Zeng Fang do a "plain water" makeup that was very popular in later generations.
The key to plain water makeup is to eliminate complexity and keep it simple. The base makeup should be white, the makeup should be transparent, and the color elements should be light.
With makeup, you look the same as without makeup, but you become more beautiful.
After putting on makeup, Zeng Fang looked at herself in the mirror and liked it very much, "Momo, your makeup skills are so amazing. You can't even tell that you've put on makeup unless you look carefully."
Yun Mo is also quite satisfied with her makeup technique, "Just tell me whether it looks good or not."
Zeng Fang couldn't help but nod, "It looks good! I really like this plain water makeup you mentioned. Can you teach me how to do it when you have time?"
"I don't teach my disciples casually."
"I'll pay for the tuition."
"Then I'll think about it."
After joking for a while, Yun Mo looked at the clock on the wall and said, "Let's go, let's set off."
Zeng Fang said while looking in the mirror: "Don't worry, you haven't put on makeup yet, Momo, you should also put on beautiful makeup on yourself, just like me."
"No."
"Why?"
Yun Mo touched her face narcissistically, "It's hard to give up on your natural beauty. This fairy must leave a way for you mortals to survive."
Zeng Fang: "...Thank you."
"You're welcome."
On the way there, Zeng Fang looked at the bag in Yun Mo's hand curiously, "By the way, Momo, you don't really want to give that gold bracelet to your adoptive mother as a birthday gift from last time, do you?"
Yun Mo handed the box in the bag to the other party, "See for yourself."
Seeing the bracelet in the box, Zeng Fang breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "This isn't cheap, is it?"
"Well, it cost me 900 oceans."
Zeng Fang hissed like a toothache, "You are willing to give it up? In fact, I think you are still a student now, so there is no need to give something too expensive, and others can't say anything."
