Yin Zijing stretched her legs comfortably and asked groggily, "What time is it now?"

As Ruhe massaged the area, she replied, "Miss, it's early morning now, you can sleep a little longer. I'll call you when I'm done massaging you, so you won't miss your appointment with Third Master."

Yin Zijin mumbled in a daze, "Okay, call me in a bit, and tell Granny Zhou that we don't need to prepare any clothes. I'll just wear my monk's robe. The ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) is too cumbersome and inconvenient for movement."

Ruhe readily agreed: "Yes, yes, I'll tell Granny Zhou about it in a bit..."

Half an hour later, Ruhe woke up Yin Zijin, who was sleeping soundly. After washing up, Yin Zijin looked at the pink ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) that Zhou Mama had brought over and frowned slightly: "Mama, this ruqun is really inconvenient."

Granny Zhou placed the tray containing the ruqun (traditional Chinese dress), embroidered shoes, and hair ornaments on the dressing table and said, "Miss, you absolutely cannot wear monk's robes. Last time was a special case, and this old servant was not by your side."

Since you have already agreed to the lady's request, you are no longer a man, but a proper young lady. From now on, a young lady can only wear a ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), hairpins, makeup, bound feet, and a bodice, and properly adapt to and experience the life of a young lady, so that she can become a young lady both in body and mind.

In time, so what if the girl is a boy? No one will be able to tell, because the girl's behavior, demeanor, and speech are those of a proper young lady. Since the girl has already promised the madam, this old servant will do his best to raise her well. In fact, this is also a way to protect the girl.

When everything falls into place, the girl will naturally stop thinking about unrelated things. She will choose her own favorite ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), draw her own eyebrows and do her own makeup, personally select her favorite nail polish and earrings, wrap her own chest when she can't stand the itching, and embroider her own handkerchief and bellyband.

"Young lady, look closely, isn't this ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) beautiful? Are you sure you don't want to wear it?"

Yin Zijing touched the pretty pink ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) and sighed, "Granny, this ruqun is too exquisite and luxurious. I'm going to study medicine and heal the sick, not to go on a spring outing or to attend a banquet."

"Granny, you live with Mother, so naturally you eat and use the best things. Granny, you can go and visit the disaster relief centers when you have time..."

Granny Zhou spat and said, "On the way to Fu'an Temple, those disaster victims rioted, and I almost died on the road. So I have no sympathy for them."

If the girl doesn't want to wear a pink ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), she can go and pick out something else. Ruhe, go and bring her all her ruqun.

Ruhe said with some difficulty, "Granny, this time when we came to Fu'an Temple, we brought twenty or thirty ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) for the young lady. If we bring them all, it will take a long time."

Yin Zijing waved her hand and asked, "Where is the ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress)?"

Granny Zhou led Yin Zijin to a large chest, inside which various colored ruqun (traditional Chinese dresses) were neatly arranged. Yin Zijin picked and chose a simple, pure white ruqun made of slightly inferior material: "This one will do!"

Granny Zhou quickly helped Yin Zijin put on a ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress). The ruqun just covered Yin Zijin's small feet and also concealed the thin gold chains on her ankles. Then Granny Zhou styled Yin Zijin's hair into a simple bun, which was secured with a pink ribbon and had no hair ornaments.

After everything was settled, Granny Zhou instructed, "Ruhe, take the young lady to Third Master's place, then you can come back."

Ruhe nodded and accompanied Yin Zijin out the door. Because her feet were chained with thin gold chains, Yin Zijin could not walk too fast or too hastily. Because her feet hurt, Yin Zijin dared not put her feet down hard, so she walked very lightly, like a willow swaying in the wind.

When Yin Zijing arrived at Yin Gui's residence, Yin Gui was already standing at the door. Yin Gui glanced at the time: "Let's go! The time is just right."

After dropping the person off, Ruhe bowed and returned to Qingya Xiaozhu.

Yin Zijin followed behind Yin Gui and walked towards the disaster relief site.
