Chapter 45: You and Commander Jiang will take wedding photos, right?

Wu Xiuxiu returned to her room and quickly dug out her ID card.

Looking at the ID card in her hand, Wu Xiuxiu gazed at it with a curious expression.

It was so simple!

The ID cards from this era were very simple, incomparable to the modern ones. The ID card didn’t even have a photo, only words.

The words were the same as in modern times: personal name, date of birth, ethnicity, permanent residence address, ID number, validity period, issuing authority.

Sure enough, this world was still different from the one she came from in some ways.

In her original world, there were no ID cards in the 1970s, only household registration books. They only started issuing ID cards in the 1980s.

Putting the ID card on the bed, Wu Xiuxiu opened her wardrobe and took out a blouse, then pulled out stockings and high heels, putting them on one by one.

She had originally planned to go to the bathhouse to take a bath before changing into the blouse, but she was afraid of keeping her date waiting.

Thinking that she had just been to the bathhouse the night before and was still clean and odorless, she gave up the idea of going to the bathhouse.

She sat in front of the mirror, quickly untied her two braids, loosened her hair, and combed it.

She looked better with her hair down!

After combing her hair, Wu Xiuxiu took out her lipstick and applied it. She looked in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction.

Beautiful!

Originally, she planned to take out a bunch of makeup she had bought before transmigrating from her space, apply some foundation, blush, draw some eyeliner, eyeshadow, and nose shadow, but that would be too flamboyant.

Besides, she wouldn’t be able to explain how she had foundation, blush, eyebrow pencil, eyeshadow, and nose shadow.

Everyone in the family knew that her only makeup item was a lipstick.

Fortunately, she looked good with just lipstick, and she didn’t need to apply foundation or anything else. But…

Wu Xiuxiu looked at herself in the mirror and touched her earlobes.

It would be even prettier if she could wear two earrings on her two white and smooth earlobes.

Thinking about this, Wu Xiuxiu went into her space, went to the place where she kept her jewelry, and found a pair of beautiful earrings to put on.

The original body had pierced ears, but only had a pair of copper earrings, which were a bit old-fashioned and not very pretty.

Fortunately, she had stocked up on everything before transmigrating, including jewelry, and among them were many earrings.

Back in the room, she looked in the mirror and smiled.

Even better than she imagined!

Wu Xiuxiu took her ID card and left the room, returning to the living room next door.

“Chang’e has descended to earth!” Dong Xiaoye, who was in the living room, immediately lit up with admiration when she saw her sister-in-law, and exclaimed in exaggeration.

Wu Xiuxiu blushed, “Sister-in-law, you’re so mean, you’re making fun of me.”

“I’m not making fun of you, I’m just teasing you. I’m telling the truth. You’re really beautiful, you’re just like Chang’e the Fairy!” Dong Xiaoye waved her hand and laughed.

“If you don’t believe me, ask Mom! Mom, tell me, isn’t Xiuxiu as beautiful as Chang’e, like Chang’e the Fairy descending to earth?” She looked at her mother-in-law.

Ding Hongjuan nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes, yes, she looks exactly like her! Xiuxiu, you’re so beautiful, I can’t believe you’re my daughter. I actually gave birth to such a beautiful daughter…

By the way, Xiuxiu, where did you get these earrings? I haven’t seen you wear them before.” She suddenly noticed the beautiful earrings on her daughter’s ears.

Dong Xiaoye also followed her mother-in-law’s gaze and noticed the earrings, a look of confusion and curiosity flashed in her eyes.

“Xiuxiu, did you just buy these earrings? This is the first time I’ve seen them.”

Earlier, all my attention was drawn to my younger sister-in-law’s face. I was so focused on staring at her face that I didn’t even notice she was wearing new earrings.

“Yeah, I bought them after I found some money.” Wu Xiuxiu nodded, responding to her sister-in-law’s question.

“Xiuxiu, this is the household registration booklet.” Ding Hongjuan handed the household registration booklet to her daughter. She had already taken it out of the room.

“Xiuxiu, put this on.” Ding Hongjuan took out another item and held it out to her daughter’s chest. It was a portrait of the Great Leader.

“Mom is so thoughtful. You even thought to take the Great Leader’s portrait for you to wear. When you get your marriage certificate and take photos, you must wear the Great Leader’s portrait… You and Commander Jiang will take wedding photos, right?” Dong Xiaoye laughed beside her.

Hearing her sister-in-law’s words, Wu Xiuxiu remembered that it was popular at this time to wear the Great Leader’s portrait on your chest. For a major event like getting married, you had to wear the Great Leader’s portrait. It felt like you were receiving the Great Leader’s blessings.

As for taking wedding photos, it wasn’t like in modern times. When you registered for marriage and got your marriage certificate, you were required to take photos.

At this time, there weren’t the same good conditions as in modern times. The place where you registered for marriage couldn’t take a wedding photo of everyone who came to register.

It was only those who had the means and were willing to spend the money who went to the photo studio to take wedding photos.

At this time, people were too poor. For ordinary people, taking photos was a luxury.

But considering her object’s circumstances, he definitely had the money to take her for wedding photos.

Wu Xiuxiu nodded to her sister-in-law, “Yeah. Once the wedding photos are taken and developed, I’ll bring them to you… I’m going now. Brother Yunhan is waiting for me.”

Wu Xiuxiu took the household registration booklet and ID card and was about to run out, but her mother stopped her.

“Wait.”

“What’s wrong? Mom. Is something wrong?” Wu Xiuxiu looked at her mother in confusion.

“Put your ID card and household registration booklet in here. It’s not safe to hold them like that. Your ID card and household registration booklet are important things.”

Ding Hongjuan ran to the wall, took a military green canvas satchel hanging on the wall that was popular at this time, came back to Wu Xiuxiu, took the ID card and household registration booklet she was holding, put them in the satchel, and then handed the satchel to her.

“Thank you, Mom. Like my sister-in-law said, you’re the most thoughtful and considerate.” Wu Xiuxiu said sweetly, slung the satchel over her shoulder, waved to her family, and ran out of the house.

“Oh my! Xiuxiu, look at how you’re dressed! You’re like a fairy descending from heaven! Why are you dressed like this?”

As soon as Wu Xiuxiu left the house, she ran into Mrs. Chang, who lived in the same courtyard. The old lady saw her and exclaimed in an exaggerated way.

Wu Xiuxiu glanced at her, just about to speak, but Mrs. Chang said, “You’re dressed so beautifully. Are you going to perform? Or… are you going on a blind date?”

“Neither. I have something to do. I’m going now. See you later.” Wu Xiuxiu shook her head, and quickly left.

She had a normal relationship with Mrs. Chang. There was no need to talk to her more, and there was no need to tell her that she was going to get her marriage certificate with her object.

As Wu Xiuxiu passed through the courtyards in front, she ran into several neighbors, each of whom was amazed by her appearance and asked why she was dressed so beautifully.

Two old ladies, like Mrs. Chang, asked her if she was going to perform or on a blind date. Old Lady Xue suspected that she had an object and was going on a date with him.

Wu Xiuxiu didn’t have time to chat with these neighbors. She gave them the same answer: “Neither. I have something to do. I’m going now. See you later.”

After Wu Xiuxiu quickly left the courtyard, she hadn’t walked a few steps before she saw a tall and handsome figure in military green standing at the entrance of the alley. At first, because they were far apart, she couldn’t see his face clearly. When she got closer, she could finally make out his face. It was Jiang Yunhan.

A flash of confusion crossed Wu Xiuxiu’s eyes. Why did her object get off the bus and stand at the entrance of the alley?

Could it be that he was waiting for her?

Thinking of this possibility, Wu Xiuxiu ran towards Jiang Yunhan.
