âEat more.â Meijiao kept putting vegetables on her plate for her. âWhatever you like, Iâll have the kitchen make it right awayâ¦â
âI canât even finish whatâs on the table.â
After lunch, Tao Meijiao handed her a handkerchief. Su Qingyue took it and wiped her mouth, âCan I borrow your kitchen for a moment? I need to decoct some medicine.â
âYou donât have to do it yourself. Just tell me how to decoct it, and Iâll have the servants do it for you. They will bring you the decoction.â
âThat works too.â
When the medicine juices were ready, Su Qingyue took out the bronze mirror she always carried with her and used her newly purchased makeup pen to draw loose âspotsâ on her face. She then evenly applied the warm medicine juice to her face and neck. After finishing her âmakeupâ, the beautiful woman in the mirror turned into an ugly woman with dull, spotted skin.
However, her facial features were still beautiful, and she didnât look that ugly overall, just a bit ordinary.
Tao Meijiao looked at her with incredulity, âWow, Xiao Yue, you really look like a completely different person after doing this. A beautiful woman has turned into an ordinary one. But having to do this every day is troublesome, and thereâs a risk of being discovered.â
âNo need to worry.â Su Qingyue said, âThis medicine juice wonât fade even when it comes into contact with water or when washing your face. Only when washed with another dose of medicine juice will it reveal the original color of your skin.â
âHow did you know that?â
âThatâs a secret.â Her medical skill is outstanding, and traditional Chinese medicine is profound and extensive. It is not difficult for her to research it, especially since she already figured it out in her last life.
With that said, she stood up, âI should go now.â
Meijiao hurriedly grabbed her sleeve, âDonât go, stay with me a bit longer. Actually, I donât have any friends either. Iâm always alone, and although there are many servants in the Mansion, they are still my subordinates. Iâm so lonelyâ¦â
Upon hearing her words, Su Qingyue decided to stay a little longer. In the afternoon, she finally left the Tao Mansion under Tao Meijiaoâs reluctant goodbye and rode her horse towards Wushan Village.
By the time she returned to Wushan Village, it was already dark.
From a distance, she saw Xiao Qinghe sitting in his wheelchair at the entrance of the courtyard, looking in her direction.
He was clearly waiting for her.
The little bastard ran over excitedly, wagging his tail and making happy âAwoooâ sounds upon seeing his owner.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Qingyue saw the relief in Xiao Qingheâs eyes when he saw her.
It seemed that the young man was worried that she might not return.
She dismounted and led the horse into the courtyard.
Xiao Yuchuan, who was cooking in the kitchen, quickly ran over with a spatula, âWife, youâre back!â
She nodded faintly.
Yuchuan rushed over and hugged her tightly, âWife, Iâve been missing you so much for the whole day!â And even kissed her on the face.
âLet go of me.â She struggled a bit, âItâs not good for others to see.â
âThereâs nothing wrong with it.â Yuchuan didnât care, âYouâre my wife, others will just think we have a good relationship as husband and wife.â
Her body stiffened, âThird brotherâ¦â
Xiao Yuchuan tapped her face, âAre you feeling shy, wife?â He looked closely at her face, âWife, youâre not wearing a veil? Your scabs have fallen off, and your face is completely healed!â
âYes.â She nodded.
âWife, you look so much better than before.â He grinned and tossed the spatula aside, picking her up and spinning her around, âOh, my wife has become beautiful!â
