375 Nuo’er Put On Boy’s Clothes
Gu Zichen didn’t expect his five-year-old sister to be so smart. She even knew to send people to investigate him?
Although his biological mother was a lowly palace maid, she entered the palace at the age of six and worked as a weaver.
Every day, she worked with satin and fabric and did some embroidery work for the n.o.bles in the palace.
He remembered that back then, his mother wasn’t doted on and Gu Yihan had many consorts and sons.
He was the least eye-catching one.
Therefore, his mother would always secretly stuff some silver to the people from the Palace Affairs Bureau when they sent clothes monthly.
She hoped that they would give her some leftovers from the good satin so that she could use them to mend the fifth prince’s innerwear.
After a while, because his mother was good at identifying fabric, he was also influenced a little.
He leaned slightly against the wall of the carriage and looked at his smart and strange sister in front of him. He asked, “Why are you willing to help me? I can’t give you anything in return.”
Gu Nuo’er’s beautiful watery eyes swept over and gave him a resentful look.
“I don’t lack anything, so why do I need Fifth Brother to give me anything in return? You’re thinking too much. I just don’t want to see you being bullied by maidservants again. If you go down the wrong path and word gets out, Father will be the one to lose face. To put it more seriously, Baby Nuo will lose face!
“It’s very important to support yourself and strengthen your wings until you can protect yourself. Baby Nuo doesn’t want a stupid brother, so Fifth Brother, you have to work hard later!”
After saying that, the child turned around and crawled to the corner of the carriage. She opened a small box and looked for something with her b.u.t.t sticking out.
Gu Zichen propped up his head and smiled leisurely. “Then how does Sister plan to hide your ident.i.ty? You have to know that if Minister Hang sees you, I’m afraid he’ll agree to all your requests before you even say anything.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Gu Nuo’er coming out with a set of clothes.
“Hehe, Fifth Brother, I’ve long thought of this. Look at what this is.”
Her small hands suddenly shook open the clothes.
Gu Zichen was stunned. “This is… boy’s clothes?”
Gu Nuo’er raised her head proudly and nodded. “That’s right. I asked playboy older brother to help me find this. In a while, I’ll pretend to be Fifth Brother’s attendant! Uncle Hang definitely won’t be able to recognize me.
“The most important thing today is to help Fifth Brother get to know the uncle in charge of buying fabric.”
Who was playboy older brother?
Gu Zichen was puzzled.
How popular was his sister? She didn’t even need to remember people’s names and had to rely on vegetables and fruits [1. The term ‘playboy’ in Chinese has the word ‘carrot/radish’ in it.] to name them?
After saying that, the child prepared to change her clothes.
Gu Zichen consciously turned his back and closed his eyes.
After a while, he heard Gu Nuo’er let out a childish sound. “Eh?”
He opened his eyes and saw that the clothes that the so-called playboy older brother had found for Gu Nuo’er were long and dragging on the ground!
The clothes worn by an ordinary five or six-year-old boy were loose on Gu Nuo’er like a big robe.
She was really too thin and soft.
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er blinked her watery black eyes and looked at Gu Zichen pitifully and helplessly.
Gu Zichen was stunned for a moment before he suddenly smiled.
“Nuo’er, Nuo’er, you look like a child wearing adult clothes.”
In the end, he reached out and folded Gu Nuo’er’s sleeves and robe slightly.
This way, she finally looked a little more normal.
The child didn’t hesitate at all. She wrung her black hair with her hands, instantly turning it into a bun.
With this, she really seemed like a good-liking attendant!
Gu Nuo’er frowned. “Uh, Fifth Brother, I feel that something is still lacking.”
