Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 17 Preparations Before Traveling
"Girl, this is the first time I'm going out with the old lady today, so the maidservant must dress up for you."

As Cui Xin spoke, she quickly dressed her and combed her hair.

"Our girl has fair skin, so it's suitable to wear such a bright color." Afterwards, Mama Wu also came in, with a look of joy on her face, and she praised with a smile.

Shen Yuechen looked down at the skirt of the dress, only to hear Mama Wu stroking her back, and said with some emotion in her tone: "The girl has really grown up, she is a big girl."

Shen Yuechen raised the corner of her mouth, looked up and saw Chunxi, the maid in the old lady's room, walking into the door with a smile.

Wu Ma rushed out to greet her: "Miss Chunxi, why are you here..."

Chunxi smiled and said: "The old lady asked me to come over and see if the eldest lady is ready, is there anything else I need?"

Wu Ma hurriedly led Chunxi into the room, and said with a smile, "It's almost ready, young lady, let's go inside and have a look."

Chunxi was the eldest maid in the old lady's room. She was in her early twenties, and she was born with a round baby face. She smiled very cutely.

After entering the room, Chunxi saluted and greeted Shen Yuechen graciously, and quickly sized her up. He saw that her dress was bright and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. She only needed to wear a beautiful bun.

"Miss is so beautifully dressed, why don't you let the servants comb your hair to match?"

Shen Yuechen subconsciously nodded when he heard the words.

Come to think of it, the reason why the old lady sent her here may be out of such considerations.

Chunxi took the wooden comb from Cui Xin's hand, and Cui Xin immediately retreated to the side knowingly, pursing her mouth slightly, watching Chun Xi seem to be juggling, neatly twisting the young lady's long black hair into a concentric bun , skillful in technique, light in movement, and a little more careful and serious in his eyes.

After combing her hair, Chunxi selected a white jade hairpin inlaid with beads and emeralds from the open jewelry box on the table and gently inserted it into her bun. After carefully examining it, she asked with a smile, "What do you think, Miss?"

Shen Yuechen nodded in satisfaction.

Chunxi followed and said: "Breakfast is about to come, why don't Miss go to the main courtyard with the slaves and accompany the old lady."

"Alright." Shen Yuechen stood up slowly, turned to look at Mama Wu, "Mom and Cuixin will take a good rest at home today."

"Miss, you can go out and play happily, don't worry about anything." Wu Ma replied, and then followed the two of them out of the house and sent them to the gate of the courtyard.
