Chapter 361 Dress up to attend
I didn't expect to hear such an explosive speech just after I found the person.
It looks like this isn't the first time the bearded man has snapped Princess Sisi.
"What are you saying, sir? I just haven't seen such a fair-faced boy before. He looks so weak that I couldn't help but look at him a few more times. If I had to say who I like, I'd prefer someone like you." Princess Sissi spoke softly. Although her words were flattering, she didn't feel humble at all.
The man was obviously very happy. He laughed and hugged Princess Ceci's waist. "Yes, you have good taste. How could we, the Wubang people, like those pretty boys?"
After that, the two of them started laughing and playing in the house, and Gu Qingyun got a headache listening to them.
……
At this time in Kyoto Prefecture, it is the annual Thousand Lantern Festival, and the streets are decorated with lights. Apart from the Lantern Festival and the River Lantern Festival, this festival has the most lanterns, lampshades, and various small ornaments every year.
Last year, Qi Ning'an didn't go shopping either. At that time, he was busy with the restaurant business all day and night. In addition, the matter of Young Master Luochuan was not resolved, so Qi Ning'an didn't go out much.
But this year, the excitement has spread to other provinces. There are all kinds of things on the street, silk, porcelain, tea, sugar figurines, clay sculptures...
In short, it is very strange and lively.
Qi Ning'an had booked a banquet for the Thousand Lantern Festival a few days in advance. He only needed to make a reservation at a restaurant in Kyoto in advance and could eat directly on the day.
In order to prevent the situation from getting more chaotic, only the Thousand Lanterns Banquet is held on the Thousand Lanterns Festival day.
It's not just because the Kyoto restaurant is becoming more and more famous, but also because Qi Ning'an has become the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. Many people came to make reservations several days in advance, but there were no seats left.
"Young lady, just go and have fun. You are now the daughter of the Marquis's family. You should be happy and dress up beautifully before going out. Look, Jin Xi and Jin Bao are almost dying of cravings for you. Since the Marquis gave them to you, they have barely combed your hair a few times."
The Thousand Lantern Festival lasts for three days in Kyoto Prefecture, but only the first day is the real Thousand Lantern Festival. On the first day, many people will set up stalls. Qi Ningan had already visited them yesterday, so he thought of asking Lixia and Guyu, the young chefs who were usually very busy, to go out today, and he would take care of the store himself.
"Yes, young lady. Yesterday you came back in a hurry after only half an hour and insisted on driving us out. If we were to go shopping, we did more." Guyu had already started to drive Qi Ning'an out.
Qi Ning'an had no choice but to go back to her room to wash and dress up. She didn't like shopping on weekdays. In the past, she would rather cook in restaurants during these holidays.
Not to mention that when she went out yesterday, many young ladies from this family and young masters from that family came to play with her. They all put on airs, but they were also very attentive to her for no reason, which always felt weird.
In comparison, Jin Xi and Jin Bao were extremely happy. Since they came to the restaurant, the work they had in the Marquis' Mansion, which was originally not much, became even less.
I feel like I have gained a lot of weight. Apart from eating and drinking with the lady every day, I only drink water at night and in the morning.
The young lady doesn't like to comb her hair, nor does she like to have many complicated hairpins or styles on her head. She just likes to tie her hair up with a hairpin every day.
There was no need for them to do anything at all. Even the lady who was in charge of selecting the clothes had already chosen them, so there was no difficulty in choosing at all.
As a result, the two of them had little to do on weekdays.
Jin Bao was originally responsible for serving tea and water in the Marquis' Mansion, but guests only came to the Mansion twice a year or two. Recently, in a restaurant, he suddenly discovered the joy of making tea.
I learned a lot of tea-making skills from the young lady every day. Only in these two days did the young lady tell me to go to the front hall to make tea if I had nothing to do.
Otherwise, I would be extremely idle.
Jin Xi has a cheerful personality and the girls in the restaurant all like her very much. They became good friends in just two days.
Originally, when working for the master's family, the little maids were not allowed to make their hairstyles or clothes too complicated, so as not to steal the limelight from their master.
But it’s different in Kyoto restaurants. As long as you don’t mind the trouble of working, the ladies won’t mind how they dress up.
So Jin Xi did hair buns for many people. Although they all thought the hairpins were too heavy, it was not a big deal as it was just braiding or bunting their hair.
Jinxi and Jinbao then realized that even though they had a lot of jewelry, although they were not expensive, even if they liked to buy them, they didn't like to wear them on their bodies.
While recalling their experiences during this period, the two of them helped Qi Ningan to tie her hair.
"Jinxi, can you not bring this?"
Jin Xi's mouth twitched as he saw the tassels he had just fixed for the young lady being ruthlessly pulled off by her.
"But Miss, it looks better when worn this way. Rich girls all like to wear it this way."
Although he got along very well with his young lady during this period, Jin Xi was smart enough to discover the young lady's "little weakness". The young lady was very nice to people, especially if someone acted coquettishly towards her, she generally couldn't stand it, and most things could be accomplished with some push and push.
As expected, Qi Ning'an quickly closed his eyes.
"Okay, okay, okay, Dai Dai Dai."
As she said this, she used her fingers to make two lines of tears, which looked very cute.
Jin Bao coaxed from the side, "Miss, you are so pretty. You will be even prettier after you wash and dress up. When you go out on the street, the young men in Kyoto will be amazed. When did Kyoto have such a beautiful lady?"
Qi Ning'an pursed her lips. Although she was not the kind of person who liked to be flattered, who would be unhappy to hear praise?
Soon, Jin Xi and Jin Bao finished dressing up Qi Ning'an. Qi Ning'an looked at herself in the mirror. To be honest, this was the first time she had dressed up so elaborately since she came here. It really gave her a different feeling.
"The young lady is really beautiful. Let's go to the streets and admire her beauty along the way in Kyoto."
Jinbao was dancing and gesticulating, looking both cute and funny.
Qi Ning'an knew that Jinbao was trying to make him happy, and was afraid that he would not want to go out again.
In that case, let’s… go.
After reaching the main street, Qi Ning'an admitted that he really wanted to escape, even though everyone on the street was dressed in their best and there were many young men and women dressed up gorgeously.
But this feeling of being watched is still a bit uncomfortable. For no apparent reason, I would pay attention to my walking and talking, afraid of being heard or seen by others.
"Miss, you can see there are clay figures that look exactly like the lady. The lady is so pretty, let's go buy one too."
