"Definitely!" Jingyi says, bouncing back with a grin. "You know what, we need to get you ready for your introduction. Zizhen? Would you check my bag for a clean cloth and a comb? Yuan, we'll get your hair fixed so you can look your best. Are these the robes you want to wear or do you have any other set you want to change into? We can shield your modesty."
He realizes how that might sound to a former prostitute, but forces himself to push past it. He takes the cloth Zizhen finds and passes it over. "There's a water skin over there you can wash your face and hands with. Whew, this basket smells so strong! It's just like peo-" Oh! Right. Of course it would smell like Jin Ling's peonies. He makes a face and looks to Zizhen for help. Mayday! Mayday! I just said something really stupid!
