He Youyou was utterly puzzled: "What, you want to change your surname?"
Butler Qian bowed deeply and said, "Please bestow a surname upon me, Mistress."
“It’s great to have the surname Qian (钱), I love money the most,” He Youyou said. “Don’t change it.”
"yes."
The housekeeper acknowledged, raising his hand to wipe away non-existent cold sweat.
He Youyou returned to her room, took off the men's clothing she was wearing, and changed into a light, narrow-sleeved ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress).
She is currently in mourning, and her clothes are mostly white and plain in color.
Then I went to the study and found a copy of "The Customs and Scenery of Jizhou", and sat on the couch by the window to read it.
She needs to learn about the local customs, products, and traditions in detail.
Less than half an hour after she finished reading, a young maidservant came to the door of the study and stammered, "Mistress... Madam, Ah Li... he's... he's finished washing... he's here."
He Youyou was quite surprised.
This little girl is usually quite eloquent, why is she suddenly unable to speak clearly?
Just as she was pondering this, she saw another person walk into the study and stand next to the little maid.
Dressed in the simple clothes of a servant, he bowed deeply to He Youyou.
Stand up straight, head up, and with your eyes lowered in a submissive manner.
He Youyou was stunned.
She has invested in several film and television companies and has met many idol stars.
The one in front of me is good enough to debut directly.
"Ah Li?" she called tentatively.
The boy looked up and replied, "Yes."
Her eyes shone like cold stars, and her lips were as fresh as peach blossoms.
His skin was no longer the dark color it used to be.
His face was handsome with a touch of glamour.
Given his appearance and the circumstances of his place, the fact that he has survived to this day unscathed must be largely due to his careful concealment.
Pretty boys don't have much better experiences than girls.
Without support or backing, one will eventually become someone else's plaything.
He Youyou approached and took a closer look at his long and beautiful phoenix eyes.
"How did you manage to make your eyes look so puffy?"
Ali didn't hide anything: "There's a kind of clay in the river east of the city. If you dig it up, mix it with paste, add boiling water and stir it into a mud-like consistency, then apply it to your face, it will change your appearance."
"Oh, how did your skin color change?"
"It was dye left by my mother. From the time I was born, my mother would apply dye to my body to darken my skin. Later, as I grew up, in addition to applying dye, we also had to apply mud to change my appearance."
He Youyou nodded.
This courtesan was truly thoughtful to have planned so much for her child.
Admirable and respectable.
That's good. With his appearance changed, no one will recognize him as the servant boy from Cuihua Tower anymore.
Whether it's going to school or getting a job, it's much more convenient now.
He Youyou stood in front of him: "You've revealed your face to me, aren't you afraid I'm a bad person?"
Human trafficking was rampant in ancient times. A beautiful child like Ah Li could be sold off for a huge profit.
Ahri's phoenix eyes flickered slightly, her body slumped, and she suddenly knelt down.
When both knees hit the ground, there was a thud.
He Youyou felt a pain in her bones just listening to it.
"Madam, as long as you can let Ali enter the Liang family and take the imperial examination, I will do whatever you want me to do."
Um?
He Youyou realized something was wrong.
Hearing his words and seeing the resigned expression on his face...
no……
She really isn't...
That's perverted...
No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense.
"You can stay here for now. Read some books when you have free time. If you need any books, just tell Butler Qian. I'll come find you when I have time."
"As you command, Madam, Ah Li... is willing to obey your orders."
An unnatural blush appeared on the tips of the boy's ears.
He Youyou knew he had misunderstood, and she was too lazy to explain.
He waved his hand, telling him to go back.
Ali walked out of the study, while Butler Qian walked in from the outside.
They met face to face.
Ah Li bowed to Butler Qian.
The housekeeper was stunned and didn't react for a long time.
Just then, He Youyou strolled over and whispered in his ear, "Butler Qian, is it good?"
