On New Year's Day, he reached out and patted the little sparrow, assuring the old steward, "Don't worry, I won't mistreat the little sparrow."
Sparrow: "Chirp chirp chirp."
Master, Master, how come you turned back into a human?
New Year:"……"
Damn it.
Can't understand.
She suddenly understood Xiao Changqi's feelings about not being able to speak bird language.
The head steward nodded with satisfaction. Young Master Yuan was a good boy, and Miss Yuan was his sister, so she naturally wouldn't be any worse.
Thinking back to what she had said at the Prince's mansion gate on New Year's Day, the old steward didn't quite believe it, but he had heard that this Miss Yuan had not been punished at all when she spoke out against the Prince.
The old steward's desire to act as a matchmaker for Xiao Changqi rekindled.
After receiving the sparrow on New Year's Day, he wanted to leave, but the head steward immediately said in a fawning tone, "Take care."
New Year:"?"
Your attitude changed way too quickly!
On New Year's Day, without delving into the reasons for the old steward's change of attitude, he simply took Jin Ying and Sparrow and left.
Huo Youcai stayed by her side, saying he wanted to be her protector and take her home on New Year's Day.
Yuan Dan's thinking was still that of a modern person; she was completely unaware of what it meant for a man to escort a woman home in this era. However, she had somewhere else to go and it was inconvenient for Huo Youcai to follow her, so she made up an excuse to send him away.
However, before Huo Youcai left, she suddenly said, "You should visit Yunyan Pavilion often, right?"
"Of course, I'm a regular at Yunyan Pavilion." He spoke with an air of pride, as if frequenting brothels was something to be proud of.
"Then take me to Yunyan Pavilion tomorrow." Yuandan had long been curious about ancient brothels. When it was a little bird, Xiao Changqi didn't take it, and it couldn't get in as a little bird. Now that it had turned back into a human, of course it had to go to a brothel to see what it was like.
Huo Youcai wondered if he had misheard: "Boss, you...you're going to a brothel?"
"Um."
"Yunyan Pavilion is a place for men to seek pleasure. You, a woman... isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"Don't worry, I won't go to a brothel looking like this." Yuan Dan knew that if she were a woman, she definitely wouldn't be able to enter a brothel, and people might even think she was there to catch someone in the act of adultery. So, dressing up as a man was a good idea.
Don't TV shows often feature a female lead who disguises herself as a man, meets the male lead by chance, becomes his best friend, then the male lead discovers he's fallen in love with his best friend, and finally, by chance, stumbles upon his best friend taking a bath, only to be surprised to find out that his best friend is actually a woman?
TV dramas are all staged. No matter how a girl disguises herself as a man, she will definitely reveal her identity as soon as she opens her mouth.
She had already made plans for New Year's Day. Once inside Yunyan Pavilion, she would never utter a word and would remain a mute "girlfriend."
Huo Youcai wanted to say something more, but Yuandan had already waved goodbye and gone in another direction.
Jin Ying snapped out of her daze and quickly followed, her anxious expression impossible to hide.
"Miss, what are you doing at a brothel? If someone finds out, your reputation will be ruined..."
Yuan Dan said in a detached tone, "Given what I did outside the Prince Gan's residence today, do you think I have any good reputation left?"
Jin Ying hesitated, looking at the New Year's Day in front of her, feeling both familiar and strange.
The face is familiar, but the temperament is unfamiliar.
The young ladies of the past rarely left their homes, spending their days embroidering and writing lyrics in their rooms, valuing their reputation above all else. But now... it's as if they've become completely different people.
Did the young lady really get hurt after falling off her horse?
