Su Zhenzhen is an intern in the Underworld of the 906th century. After eight months on the job, her performance record is zero. If she keeps this up, she'll be kicked out! To save her job, she ...
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Combing Jiang Sijin's Hair
The coffin shop was tidied up and a carved wooden bed was placed there. Li Da somehow got hold of a pink gauze curtain and hung it up as a bed curtain.
Jiang Sijin lay down on it with great enjoyment.
Su Zhenzhen was very envious. She had been sent here for so long, but hadn't slept in a bed for more than a few nights.
However, I don't plan to get one myself, since there are already some ready-made ones, aren't there?
"Little princess, you're not going to stay in bed all day and night, are you?"
Jiang Sijin immediately became alert. "What do you want?"
Su Zhenzhen chuckled, "Look, the coffin shop is only so big. If I bring back a bed, the space will be much smaller, and you'll feel cramped, won't you?"
Jiang Sijin rolled her eyes. "How can I allow someone else to snore beside my bed?"
No, is this sentence used like this?
“I don’t sleep in bed all day long, I only sleep for two hours a day. As payment, I’ll braid your hair.”
Jiang Sijin scoffed and pointed at Li Da, "Don't forget, he's the one who combs the Empress's hair."
Su Zhenzhen deliberately revealed a mysterious smile, "You should be able to find memories of the Empress's hairstyle in this body, right? To be honest, do you like it? My braided hair looks good even without jewelry, do you dare to let me try it?"
No child can resist curiosity about new things. Even though Jiang Sijin, this monster, may have lived for many years, she is still a child when she starts to move in her physical body. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so inconsiderate as to not even let her nose bleed.
Jiang Sijin loosened her hair and arrogantly turned the back of her head towards Su Zhenzhen.
"Then you can give it a try, but don't get any funny ideas, okay? My hair is very smart."
Su Zhenzhen smiled but didn't say anything. She first combed Jiang Sijin's long hair smoothly, then her fingertips moved quickly.
Thick, dark hair was intertwined between her slender fingers, and soon one braid after another was neatly tied without any splinters.
Li Da was secretly alarmed. He had been styling the Empress's hair for so many years, but he couldn't guarantee that every strand of hair would be used well. In particular, some strands that were not long enough would easily stick out. At this time, people basically did not cut their hair, but the hair was too fragile. It was impossible to guarantee that every strand of hair used for braiding would be the same length. Therefore, the royal family did not like to braid their hair. From a distance, it looked fine, but up close, a lot of hair would stick out.
Su Zhenzhen wasn't particularly skilled; she had simply found a hairstyling tutorial and secretly applied some hairspray to her palm.
After finishing the first layer of braids, Su Zhenzhen stood them up to create a stylish look. At this point, she naturally needed to use some 906-century tools, such as hair clips. Fortunately, these things were relatively cheap, otherwise, she would have lost a lot of money.
After her hair was styled, Su Zhenzhen thoughtfully brought out a small mirror that only existed in the 906th century.
Jiang Sijin suddenly saw herself clearly in the mirror and was filled with curiosity. The last time she saw herself so clearly was when she was a spirit looking at the Jiang Sijin of the past.
However, once you get inside this body, you won't see it clearly whether you use a bronze mirror or water.
Thinking of this, Jiang Sijin couldn't help but feel a little smug. Although the Jiang Sijin of the past had used this body for so long, she had never really seen herself clearly.
“This one is mine too,” Jiang Sijin said without any politeness.
Su Zhenzhen naturally wouldn't say anything.
Jiang Sijin was very satisfied with this hairstyle. This cat ear braid was very rare in the 906 century, whether it was children or adults.
"I agree. You can sleep in my bed for two hours every day, but you have to style my hair like this every day."
Su Zhenzhen secretly gloated. She thought this little monster would have a different hairstyle every day. Now she had more chips in her hand.
Life had never been so peaceful, and even Su Zhenzhen, who had been under constant pressure to meet performance targets, found a moment of relief.
In the 906 century, I was constantly being lectured by my boss, and I was always on the go whenever I was sent here. Finally, I achieved one-tenth of my sales target, and I even had a place to rest, white rice to eat, and a bed to sleep in. Life was just too good to be true.
With good food and drink every day, Su Zhenzhen had even more energy and had the leisure to help Old Man Bai with farming.
"Oh, Miss Su, you can let me do this kind of rough work."
"It's nothing." Su Zhenzhen continued watering the ground with her hands. "Did anything go wrong while planting?"
Old Bai shook his head. "Everything is fine, Miss Su, don't worry."
"Do you know how to sew? It's getting cold and you're still wearing thin clothes. You can let Li Da do this kind of chores."
Putting aside the fact that Li Da is younger than Old Man Bai, Old Man Bai himself is much more pure and simple, like a hardworking and dutiful ox.
Su Zhenzhen wasn't a saint, but she couldn't stand seeing honest people being bullied. If it weren't for her desire to practice martial arts, she would have really wanted to take care of Old Man Bai's every need.
Ever since Li Da was rebuked by Jiang Sijin last time, he has become very silent. He does whatever anyone tells him to do, but he never takes the initiative.
Old Man Bai certainly wouldn't order him around. Su Zhenzhen wanted to, but since Princess Jiang Sijin needed someone to serve her, she decided to do it herself.
While they were talking, Su Zhenzhen had already watered the entire plot of land.
The old man's clothes were patched upon patched, and he looked several years younger, probably because he had been eating more lately.
"We've always gotten through winter like this, but now that we're a bit further south, it's even warmer."
Su Zhenzhen rummaged through the system's shop and found thermal underwear, but the organizers were really ripping her off; she barely had enough points left to buy one set.
Damn it, I can only buy one men's set, and the women's thermal underwear costs 100 points more.
Why? Just why? Is it the gold thread used in women's thermal underwear?
Su Zhenzhen mentally cursed the evil organizers, then ordered a thermal underwear in the size of an old man.
After demonstrating to the old man how to put it on, Su Zhenzhen told him to find a place to put it on himself.
Fearing that the old man might be a bit too clever, Su Zhenzhen specifically instructed that it should be worn close to the skin.
A short while later, the old man in white came over, dressed in thermal underwear, looking delighted.
"Miss Su, are these clothes worn by immortals? They're so thin, yet they get warm when you wear them."
"Just wear something warm."
Su Zhenzhen originally intended to do good deeds without expecting anything in return, but she didn't expect the support from the female fans in the comments.
[The female lead is so kind-hearted! At first, I was wondering if the male lead could even fit into that size she bought. I've decided I need to do something kind too.]
Su Zhenzhen watched as her single-digit balance soared to five digits, and couldn't help but grin.
Kindness indeed. It really is a circle, and my way of interacting with the comments is correct.
