115 Am I Good-looking?
Ji Zhao was so nervous that she wanted to pull out her right hand, but Shen Yao tightened his grip.
“What… what are you doing?” Ji Zhao mustered up the courage to look into his eyes and asked softly.
“Don’t move,” Shen Yao said softly. Then, he carefully raised her right hand and turned her wrist over, wiping away some of the lamb blood that was stuck to it.
“…Thank you?” Ji Zhao quickly retracted her hand. “I suddenly remembered that I still need some green onions. I’ll go find Mother…”
“Wait!” Shen Yao suddenly stopped her.
“Is there… anything else?”
“Ah Tao, are you afraid of me?” Shen Yao walked in front of her again and asked gently.
“No… no?” Ji Zhao quickly waved her hand. “I’m not afraid of you. I, I, I… Why would I be afraid of you? I’m not afraid of you.”
“Ah Tao, do you like that wooden hairpin?” Shen Yao did not find any trace of the wooden hairpin on her bun, and his tone sounded a little disappointed.
“I like it… That budding peach blossom is vivid and beautiful.”
“I also carved the word Zhao on it. Did you see it?”
“I saw it.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently. “The wooden hairpin is very beautiful. I like it very much. Thank you.”
“What about me?” Shen Yao suddenly approached her and held her shoulders, forcing her to look into his eyes. “Can you answer my question?”
Ji Zhao gulped nervously and was stunned for a moment. Just as she did not know how to answer, she happened to hear Zhao Lanhua’s voice—
“Ah Tao, quickly come out and let Mother see if this waist fits. If it doesn’t, Mother will change it for you!”
“Okay, I’m coming!” Ji Zhao hurriedly walked around Shen Yao and left the kitchen.
Every time she was alone in the room with Shen Yao, she felt that her heart was beating abnormally!
More importantly, when she looked into his eyes, she would lose focus. Her brain kept clamoring for words that could not be written—
“Mother, are you making this dress for me?” Ji Zhao came to the courtyard and obediently stood in front of the wooden stake.
Zhao Lanhua held a newly made sky-blue dress embroidered with a little yellow daisy on Ji Zhao’s back. “Of course. I’m not bragging, but your mother and second sister-in-law’s embroidery skills are not bad. Look at the flower pattern on this dress. Do you like it?”
“It’s very beautiful. It’s fresh and elegant. I like it very much.” Ji Zhao sized up the long dress seriously and said from the bottom of her heart, “It’s really very beautiful!”
“It’s good that you like it.” Zhao Lanhua smiled. “Your Second Sister-in-law and I have not worked hard these past days in vain.”
“Thank you, Mother. Thank you, Second Sister-in-law!” Ji Zhao happily picked up the clothes and returned to the room with a smile to try them on.
The original owner’s figure was very graceful, exquisite, and had smooth curves.
Although she had a full chest and plump butt, she had a slender waist.
When Shen Yao inadvertently saw her walking out of the room in her new dress, his eyes were filled with amazement.
Ji Zhao smirked smugly!
Although the Host was a brainless fool, she had good looks and a good figure!
Otherwise, Zhao Lanhua would not have been willing to take out two taels of silver to bring the original owner back to the Shen family’s courtyard when the drought was so serious.
“Mother, Second Sister-in-law, do I look good?” Ji Zhao walked to the courtyard and spun around in front of them with a faint smile.
“Yes!” Zhao Lanhua and Second Sister-in-law Shen nodded in unison.
Shen Yao suddenly walked closer to her and smiled.
There was a beauty in the Southern Kingdom, her looks as vivid as peach blossoms.
