In the morning, the minute Tian Miao woke up a maid outside her room whispered to ask if she could come in to wait on her.
After getting the affirmative from Tian Miao, several maids entered the room in single file. There were those carrying washbasins for washing one's face, sticks of willows used for rinsing one's mouth, salt, and there were also maids carrying trays filled with hair accessories and new clothes. Anyone would be able to tell that everything had been prepared with great care just with a single glance at it.
Tian Miao happily accepted the maid's service, from dressing to washing up, and, finally, to putting on all the accessories.
As the maids looked at the woman in front of them, they each felt their hearts beat somewhat faster. They had never seen a woman so beautiful and elegant before to where they dared not look directly at her, but were yet unable to help secretly stealing glances at her.
