He wiped his face three times under Liu's command, and then looked in the mirror at his hair, which he usually combed into a bun, and then turned it into a pigtail on both sides. Peanut was so stunned that he couldn't even speak. Even his uncle quietly told Liu, who was very good at combing hair? Oh my God, he felt like the four great guards of the Buddhist temple suddenly collapsed!

However, Ah Liu didn't care what Xiao Huasheng thought. After combing the pair of pigtails, he took a look at the bronze mirror and was satisfied with it. He patted Xiao Huasheng's head and signaled him to stand up.

When the man stood up in front of him in a daze, he pointed to a set of clothes on the hanger next to him and said simply, "Put it on."

Peanut was sharp-eyed. He saw that the clothes were made of fine silk. He was immediately frightened. He was about to ask something, but Ah Liu disliked his slowness and came up to him and took out a silk shirt, saying, "If you delay any longer, I will put it on you." He dared not be stubborn anymore. He quickly took the clothes and hid behind the screen to change.

After a long while, when he came out from behind the screen again, he was a handsome boy with red lips and white teeth, wearing a white silk undershirt, a light brown silk round-necked shirt, and a pair of blue cloth shoes with white soles. He was neatly dressed and had red lips and white teeth. Even he himself could not recognize the image in the mirror.

Although Emperor Taizu had scoffed at the calls of some court officials to ban common people from wearing silk clothes and to ban wealthy people and merchants from wearing satin, and had ordered that except for the red, yellow, vermilion, and purple colors of clothing for royal nobles and high-ranking officials, which could be used in common people's weddings, the rest of the colors of clothing could be worn by the common people at will, however, for common people who were struggling to make ends meet, silk was still an unaffordable material.

Peanut remembered that the last time he wore silk was when Old Salty Fish specially cut off three feet of silk to make him a robe on his tenth birthday. He was reluctant to wear it at first, but because he grew too fast, he couldn't wear it anymore, and he cried for it.

Ah Liu was also very satisfied with Peanut's outfit. He nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "When it's time to talk, you go first. When it's not time to talk, stand behind the young master. Do you understand?"

Seeing that Xiaohuasheng nodded repeatedly and then seemed to be hesitant to speak, Liu added: "Remember to call me young master. Don't panic at any time. I'm here when you need to fight." After saying this, he didn't care about Xiaohuasheng's dazed expression and dragged him out.

When Zhang Shou saw Xiao Huasheng again, he saw him walking side by side with Ah Liu. They were wearing the same clothes and were the same height. If it weren't for their different looks, he might have thought they were brothers. Seeing Xiao Huasheng still pulling at his sleeves and clothes a little awkwardly, he smiled and said, "The first time is new, the second time is familiar, you will get used to it after wearing it more. Go prepare the horses, we are going out."

Peanut wanted to ask where he was going, but when he saw Ah Liu nod and walk out, he could only hurry up and chase him. When he got to the stable, he helped Ah Liu lead out a horse. He thought that was enough, but Ah Liu handed him the reins, and then Ah Liu led two more horses! When he followed Ah Liu out of the county government gate in a daze, he suddenly woke up.
