Quick Wear: My hair changed color, and I became stronger

"Sister, you haven't come with us to visit our aunt for a long time. The palace banquet is coming soon, why don't you let our aunt give us some suggestions on our clothes and makeup?" He Wanyan said sincerely while holding Chi Li's hand.

Chi Li was already used to the harassment from the He sisters. She let He Wanxin touch her and said nonchalantly, "No need. I'll just wear anything. Anyway, I can only go because of the He family's influence. I'm definitely not the main attraction."

"How can that be? We are good sisters. How can we bear to embarrass Sister Chi? Let's go!" He Wanxin directly pulled up Chi Li, who was slumped in the rocking chair.

Chi Li didn't understand what they were up to. It was boring to stay in the yard for too long, so she just let them do whatever they wanted.

According to Liuguang's gossip, the biological mother of the twin sisters is Concubine Liu. She was a famous courtesan in the capital when she was young, and later married Marquis He as a concubine. So many years have passed, and she finally waited for Madam He to pass away, but the Marquis had no intention of making her his permanent wife.

An oiran! To be honest, Chi Li was still very curious about her appearance. After all, she was a true beauty lover.

Walking along the path paved with fine stones, through a lush garden full of exotic flowers and plants, we entered a quaint and elegant courtyard. However, what was strange was that there was not a single maid here, only silence.

"Aunt?" He Wanxin frowned and called softly.

Chi Li didn't know why, but she always felt that He Wanxin's mood was a little strange, as if it was not the way she should be when meeting her relatives.

The brown wooden door was slowly pushed open with a soft creaking sound. Madam Liu walked out from the door. She was graceful and elegant, like a willow swaying in the wind.

She was wearing a green long dress. Although she was middle-aged and no longer young, her eyebrows still revealed a sense of elegance and grace, making her worthy of the title of the most beautiful courtesan of the year.

"Why are you here?" Aunt Liu's voice was light and a little sick.

"There's no one in the concubine's courtyard. If something unexpected happens and it's not handled in time, I don't know how people will blame us as her daughters." He Wanxin said in a hasty and thorny tone.

He Wanyan reached out and pushed her shoulder, disapproval in her beautiful eyes. "The palace banquet is coming soon, and I'm afraid Auntie has no way of knowing, so we came here specifically to tell you."

Huh? Chi Li tilted her head. Aren't they here to ask questions about clothing and makeup?

"Palace banquet? Really? Can I meet the Marquis?" The lifeless and withered eyes of Concubine Liu regained their vitality.

He Wanyan smiled gently and said, "Yes, of course you can see father, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to attract father's attention in this state."

Aunt Liu's delicate hand stroked her hair, which was not covered with a headdress, and a trace of anxiety appeared on her face: "What should I do? I have spent all my money on medicine."

"What medicine do you want to buy?" Chi Li asked He Wanyan beside her in a low voice.

He Wanyan blinked and said, "Medicine for giving birth to a son."

"Ah?" Chi Li opened her eyes wide and looked at Aunt Liu in surprise.

Didn't she know that the Marquis was inhumane? Or was it a lie that the Marquis was inhumane?

"Wanxin, give it to her!" He Wanyan said to He Wanxin, whose eyes were filled with anger.

He Wanxin took out a bulging purse from her sleeve and handed it to Aunt Liu with a frown.

"Auntie, please take it. We'll leave first." He Wanyan said.

Concubine Liu took the purse without hesitation and said madly: "Okay, okay, I will definitely keep the Marquis this time. As long as I give birth to a son, the Marquis will always love me."

He Wanyan pulled He Wanxin out. Although Chi Li had a lot of questions, she still followed them out.

"Didn't you say you wanted to ask about Yizhuang?" Chi Li looked at the two of them.

He Wanyan smiled and said, "Of course I'm just teasing my sister. Every time we go to see my aunt, Wanxin starts to scold her. But with my sister around, Wanxin really calms down a lot."

"Oh, so I'm just a tool!" Chi Li held his forehead and smiled bitterly.

"Sister, just consider it as doing me a favor. I will definitely repay you when I have the chance." He Wanyan said.

Thinking about the last time she had the chance to write a poem, Chi Li waved her hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, no, you don't have to give it back to me. I'm just a warm-hearted person."

"Sister, do you have anything else to ask?" He Wanyan asked considerately.

"Where are the maids in the concubine's courtyard?" Chi Li asked.

"Sister, you never asked about my aunt before. What happened today? The book says curiosity is the beginning of liking someone. Sister Chi, are you going to fall in love with me and Wanyan?" He Wanxin joked.

"I, Chi Lixing, will not change my name or surname. I am a female, but I like men. I regard love with women as nothing. Please don't ruin my reputation." Chi Li was also not serious.

"Stop it, it's too much." He Wanyan smiled and bumped her arm with her elbow.

"The aunt found an excuse to sell the maids. Over time, no maid wanted to go to her courtyard. The old lady was too lazy to pay attention to her. No one cared about her." He Wanxin's face had a complicated expression, but Chi Li understood her thoughts instantly.

He Wanxin wanted to get the love of her mother, Aunt Liu. Even though she used harsh words to pretend to be indifferent, Chi Li still saw through her thoughts.

Chi Li couldn't help but feel pity for her, because the problems that troubled her were also Chi Li's inner demons in the real world.

------------

Chi Li spent the whole day chatting and having fun with the He sisters.

As night fell, she was finally released back into her own yard.

Chi Li held the pastries she had taken from her two plastic sisters tightly and hid them under her wide sleeves.

She wanted to give Liuguang and Liucai a taste, as they definitely had never eaten it before, and she also wanted them to listen to her bragging. Hehehe!

Thinking of this, Chi Li quickened his pace and almost trotted into the yard.

As soon as she entered the yard, Chi Li gasped, her face flushed as she shouted, "Liu Guang Liu Cai, your beautiful lady is back, come and greet me."

Under normal circumstances, the two would definitely be very considerate and excited to shout: "Welcome home, Miss, you've been out having fun all day and you must be very tired."

But it was obvious that this was not an ordinary situation. The lights and colors stood together and looked at Chi Li, their eyebrows and eyes twisting together, as if they were winking at her.

Unfortunately, Chi Li didn't understand. She could only grumble quietly: "What does that mean? What kind of weird situation is this?"

The streams of light and color parted to the left and right, revealing the blocked stone table. Seeing the person sitting on the stone bench beside the table, Chi Li fell silent.

Well, here comes the person she hates the most so far.
