She needs to thoroughly investigate the concubines in the harem, and also carefully consider what happened to her mother back then.
Yun Duoduo was deep in thought.
Now, she is different. She is no longer alone. She has many "comrades-in-arms" and "fans" in the palace. She has Ah Xiang by her side, her loving father and grandmother, and the people she has helped.
With the help of these "comrades" and "fans," she will surely be able to unravel the mystery of that year and find out the truth about her mother's death.
She needed to think about this matter carefully. As for the present, the old pervert had received his just deserts, and Yun Duoduo was very happy. She decided to treat herself well.
She sat in front of the mirror, looking at her increasingly long hair.
She is no longer the little bald girl, Xiao Sanmao; her hair has grown long and is now jet black.
Staying in the palace is boring; there are no TV dramas and I can't use my phone, so...
Hmm, let's get a trendy hairstyle!
She remembered that in her past life, her favorite type of girl was the kind who wore sky-high heels, sunglasses, and had big, wavy hair, and was considered a "bad girl."
Those alluring waves that flow through a sea of flowers without a single petal clinging to them.
She glanced at the fireplace in the bedroom; there was still charcoal burning inside, perfect for curling her hair.
By the time spring arrives, it will be difficult to find charcoal to curl your hair.
Curling hair is simply using heat to shape the hair.
Yun Duoduo is a true doer; once she has made up her mind, she takes action.
Yun Duoduo searched high and low for a while before finding two iron rods of similar thickness. She inserted the iron rods into the stove, and when she estimated that the fire was almost done, she took the two iron rods out and held them up to her hair.
"Sister Duo, what are you doing on the table?"
Jin Zhuangzhuang saw Yun Duoduo sitting in front of the bronze mirror for a long time and came over to ask her something out of curiosity.
Her hands were covered in dirt, as if she had just dug insects out of a flowerpot.
"Zhuangzhuang, go wash your hands," Yun Duoduo said.
Jin Zhuangzhuang obediently washed his hands in the basin.
"Zhuangzhuang, do you want to get big curls?" Yun Duoduo's eyes sparkled as she tempted Jin Zhuangzhuang.
Getting your hair and nails done together with your girlfriends is much more fun.
"Large roll?"
Jin Zhuangzhuang didn't understand what it meant and continued to look at Yun Duoduo with curiosity.
"Exactly! Your hair will look really good and bouncy. The big curls will be so bouncy and shiny, it looks amazing!"
"Zhuangzhuang, would you like to give it a try?"
“Okay.” Jin Zhuangzhuang was captivated by Yun Duoduo’s description and nodded in agreement without hesitation.
[That should be... very beautiful.]
Yun Duoduo picked up a strand of Jin Zhuangzhuang's hair and wrapped it around the iron rod, thinking happily to herself that it would look especially beautiful after it was permed.
Once her hair started to smoke, Yun Duoduo let go of her hair.
Okay, roll it for thirty seconds, and you should be able to get a curved shape.
A moment later, a strong smell of burning wafted over.
Hmm? Something seems off...
Yun Duoduo looked at that strand of hair that was originally black and shiny, but now looked like dry grass.
[Sister, I'm so sorry, I was too hasty.]
"What went wrong?"
Yun Duoduo was very puzzled. Was it because the temperature was too hot?
"Zhuangzhuang, don't worry, let's try again."
"Sister Duo, Zhuangzhuang, don't rush."
Jin Zhuangzhuang smelled something strange, but didn't say anything. Instead, she comforted Yun Duoduo, whom she trusted completely.
An hour passed, and Yun Duoduo had successfully become a hairstylist.
Looking at Jin Zhuangzhuang's dry, frizzy, and messy afro-like hair, Yun Duoduo swallowed hard.
"Zhuangzhuang, I'm sorry."
"What's wrong, Sister Duo?"
Jin Zhuangzhuang sat obediently on the stool, letting Yun Duoduo do her hair. Although she smelled a burning smell a few times, she ignored it.
She shifted her little bottom and saw herself in the bronze mirror.
She froze, her face filled with terror.
"Sister Duo, this is..."
Waaaaah, what a rip-off for my sister!
Jin Zhuangzhuang pouted, as if he was about to cry.
"Zhuangzhuang, Zhuangzhuang, it was Sister Duo's fault, Zhuangzhuang, don't cry."
Yun Duoduo hugged Jin Zhuangzhuang tightly and reached out to stroke her head.
Ouch, it's so hot!
Yun Duoduo shook her scalded palm.
Jin Zhuangzhuang's hair was still smoking, looking like burning black straw.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."
Ah Xiang and Granny Liu smelled something strange coming from inside the room and quickly came in to check.
"What's wrong? Is something on fire?"
Upon entering the bedroom, one immediately sees Jin Zhuangzhuang's messy, curly hair.
She really didn't expect that her first time as a hairstylist would result in such a mess of a client's hair. That's how they teach on TV!
Why can others create glamorous, wavy, "bad girl" hairstyles, while she manages to get a dowdy, messy perm?
Yun Duoduo gently patted Jin Zhuangzhuang's back.
"Zhuangzhuang, if you don't like this curly hair, Sister Duo will straighten it for you?"
Jin Zhuangzhuang nodded, her gaze shifting from deep trust to a hint of suspicion.
"Wait a minute, Sister Duo will straighten it for you!"
Yun Duoduo rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find two straight iron plates, inserted them into the stove, and after a moment took out the two red-hot iron plates.
She sat back down in front of Jin Zhuangzhuang, clamped her hair with two iron plates, and pulled it down. With a hissing sound, a strong smell of burning wafted out.
"Hey, Duoduo, what delicious food is Fu Shuanggong making? You didn't even call out to your royal brother!"
"It looks like you're roasting something? But you've got the heat off; it looks burnt. Is it still edible?"
Yun Yishu lifted the curtain and walked in.
His gaze fell on Jin Zhuangzhuang's head, and he froze for a moment.
Hey, what's going on here?!
"Zhuangzhuang, did a dog chew your hair?" He couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.
Jin Zhuangzhuang glanced at his reflection in the mirror, pouted, stomped his feet, and ran away.
"Hey, Zhuangzhuang!" Yun Duoduo's heart clenched suddenly.
[It's over, she's going to lose Zhuangzhuang.]
"Third brother, how can you be so tactless?" she said, looking at Yun Yishu with a hint of reproach.
"No, sister, brother is just stating the facts." Yun Yishu scratched his head, watching Jin Zhuangzhuang's departing figure.
"Where did you learn these unorthodox methods?"
Yun Duoduo sighed, "Alas, it's because I'm not skilled enough."
Yun Duoduo pondered how to coax Zhuangzhuang properly in a while.
"By the way, Your Majesty, is there something you need today?"
