Seeing Li Huaide's proficiency in dealing with people, Hongxiu quickly opened a teahouse, and admired this cousin very much.
On the eve of opening the shop, she eagerly said to Li Huaide: "Cousin, I can make tea, and I will help you."
Li Huaide sweated profusely and said with a headache: "No, the human form you turned into is too beautiful. If you go out, it's not helping me, but causing trouble for me."
The appearance of the red-sleeve humanoid is only slightly inferior to Yu Qingyao's. He looks so pure and cute that day. If he really wants to make an appearance in the teahouse, he will surely attract many crazy bees and butterflies.
After hearing this, Hongxiu said in amazement: "Don't human beings just like beautiful girls? What's wrong with me becoming like this?"
Li Huaide had no choice but to explain it to her in detail.
Only then did Hongxiu understand that for ordinary women, being beautiful is not a good thing, but a disaster. When she goes out like this, many powerful men will snatch her away.
However, she can't do anything now.
Her cultivation base is low, and she only cultivates Qi at a high level, and she only has one chance to transform.
Her human form can no longer be changed.
Li Huaide taught her to use charcoal to darken the skin on her face, and put on a little makeup to make herself ugly.
Hongxiu learned how to do it in a novel way.
After a while, she painted herself into a tabby cat, and then giggled in the mirror.
Li Huaide looked speechless.
He couldn't even figure out how such a simple monster survived in the human world.
Hongxiu told him that in fact she had been in Chu State for so long, most of the time she hid in the mountains, she only dared to secretly look around the small human villages in the mountains, and occasionally played with some children.
Thinking that he might have to live in Yichun for a while in the future, in order to prevent Hongxiu from revealing his flaws, Li Huaide had to tell Hongxiu in detail how human women deal with people, how they should behave in words and deeds.
Hongxiu likes human life and listens carefully.
The more she listened to it, the more she adored her cousin, thinking that he was really smart and knew so many things about human beings.
She looked at her cousin obsessively, thinking that it would be fine if he didn't practice that kind of nourishing method.
Just a few days ago, the Ford Teahouse opened. Li Huaide, as the shopkeeper, personally hung up a plaque and set off firecrackers.
Curious customers began to come to the door, and the guys began to get busy.
Li Huaide opened a medium-sized teahouse. The first floor was for ordinary customers. They sold big bowls of tea, stuffed buns and cakes. There was a table in the middle, and a storyteller was invited to speak. The second floor is the elegant room that makes money, selling high-end tea and high-end snacks. A luthier was invited to play piano music every day during peak hours.
Hongxiu was so curious about the teahouse, and even more curious about the guests who came here to drink tea, that she would often take advantage of Li Huaide's inattention, make up as a mistress, and wander around the teahouse.
She quickly learned to be a second child, learned to settle accounts, and she also wanted to learn to play the piano.
Li Huaide felt very helpless towards Hongxiu, she was the most harmless monster he had ever seen. Of course, Li Huaide had never seen many monsters, let alone being so close to a monster.
Soon, it will be the Chinese New Year.
Yu Qingyao assigned the work of the servants at home, such as cleaning, grocery shopping, and when she had nothing to do, she went to the streets to do charity.
Yichun is a prosperous and wealthy place, and there are not many beggars. Yu Qingyao walked a street without meeting a single one.
In fact, this is because she lives in a wealthy neighborhood, and the beggars here have been driven away long ago. Occasionally, one or two beggars from other places wandered here, and they would be driven away by servants or catchers.
Yu Qingyao didn't care too much, she wasn't really a good person.
She will do good deeds when she encounters them, but she will not do good deeds deliberately.
From this point of view, she has learned the true meaning of doing good without intention.
She likes the cheerful atmosphere of everyone in the street.
After shopping around the street, I bought some interesting gadgets and snacks that I wanted to eat. At noon, Yu Qingyao returned to her home.
It was time to eat, and Yu Qingyao couldn't eat well by herself, so she called the servants at home to eat together. All the servants complimented her and wished her the best when they saw the face of the master. She chose a servant who was very good at talking.
This wine is drunk lively. Yu Qingyao was happy, and each gave a silver coin as a reward.
Sister is not short of money, do you make it? The picture is a happy one.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Yu Qingyao distributed red envelopes to the servants and told them to watch over the house, and she went out to play again wearing a white lotus Taoist robe.
She rode a horse and walked all the way to Changxin Temple. There is a large square in front of Changxin Temple, which is the busiest place in the city today.
Every year at this time, there is a temple fair, there will be many plays and vaudeville performances, and all the leisure people in the city will go there to enjoy.
It was chosen there because there is a Taoist temple there, and it is the safest place.
When approaching the square, there were more pedestrians, Yu Qingyao collected the paper horse and walked forward.
Because she was wearing a Taoist robe, passers-by respected her three points, and no one dared to bump into her, which is why she came out wearing a Taoist robe. In order to avoid some unscrupulous rascals picking quarrels and making troubles, making them unhappy.
Yu Qingyao was extremely beautiful and was alone, if she hadn't been wearing a Taoist robe and had a strange looking Wu Zhen on her shoulders, many thieves and scoundrels would have attacked her long ago.
Yu Qingyao wandered around with great interest, and she wanted to watch for a while, even if there was no juggling. I was happy to see it, so I threw a few copper coins and shouted hello to the crowd. If you don't like it, just turn around and leave, never miss it.
She was watching the excitement, and many people were watching her.
Most people guessed that she was a Taoist. Occasionally, if someone closed their eyes and crowded around her, they would be too frightened to move.
Because, from time to time, she would chat with Wuzhen on her shoulder, the bird with a poisonous tongue, have you seen it? It is definitely a monster, no matter how stupid a person is, after seeing this scene, he knows that she is not easy to mess with.
Is someone who can afford a talking monster as a pet someone who is easy to mess with
Yichun is a place where commerce is developed, and the people here are the most discerning.
When Yu Qingyao came, the people next to her would subconsciously make a passage for her in awe.
Many dandies and villains only dared to look at Yu Qingyao drooling from a distance, and did not dare to strike up a conversation.
Yu Qingyao wandered around for a while, and came to the bottom of a stage, where a man dressed as a girl was singing in a coquettish voice.
She thought it was fun, walked to the front of the stage, took a grand chair from the storage bag, and sat down to watch the performance.
Wu Zhen complained: "Master, what's so interesting about this kind of neither male nor female?"
The actors on the stage were so angry that they almost sang the wrong song. It's just that it was a monster who said this, and he didn't have the guts to quarrel with the monster.
Yu Qingyao smiled at the actor comfortingly, and said, "This is art, you don't understand it."
After hearing this, the actor felt much better.
Wu Zhen said disdainfully: "I don't understand art, I only know that he is neither male nor female."
Everyone was speechless after hearing this.
Yu Qingyao hurriedly said: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, if you don't want to listen, just eat here."
She took out another table and put on several plates of dried fruit and snacks, as if to stop Wu Zhen's mouth.
