The children played like crazy in their hometown for a few days before they were willing to return to the city.
Once they returned to the city, Li Xu looked at Ji Yuanyuanâs face and her heart ached.
âYouâre a girl. Why are you following them? Their skin was thick and they were not afraid. What if you canât get married in the future if you get tanned?â Li Xu lectured helplessly.
Ji Yuanyuan chuckled. â1â11 come back for nothing after getting tanned.â
Anyway, she had the spiritual spring water, which could maintain her beauty. Even if she got tanned, her skin would definitely be able to whiten in less than two months.
Qin Mucheng stood at the side. When she heard Li Xuâs complaints, she quickly said, âAunty, I donât think sheâs tanned!â
When Li Xu heard this, she laughed.
âYour Aunt didnât care about you?â he asked Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan thought for a while and moved closer to Li Xuâs ear. She muttered for a while and told her everything that happened at the market that day.
The more Li Xu listened, the more serious her expression became.
After Ji Yuanyuan finished, she asked in a low voice, âHow did your aunt feel after that? Did you go out to see that uncle?â
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head. âHer mood was quite normal when Iâm with us. Iâm not unhappy. I donât know when sheâs not with us. However, sheâs always with us and has never left the house.â
When Li Xu heard Ji Yuanyuanâs words, the heavy stone in her heart had yet to be lifted.
This child, Miaomiao, had been sensible since she was young. She knew that the familyâs conditions were not good, so she helped the family with work at a young age.
She would never take the initiative to tell her family about anything she had in mind or wanted.
She was afraid that her family would worry about her.
In fact, it was not only Miaomiao who had such a temper. All four children in their family had such a temper.
Li Xu sighed slightly and patted Ji Yuanyuanâs little face. âYour Second Aunt gave me some face masks. 1â11 put them on for you tonight.â
Ji Ziâang was invigorated. âMom, can a facial mask make your skin fairer?â
âHow would I know? I think so, I saw the word âwhiteningâ on the mask.â Li Xu said casually.
She had never used a facial mask before.
After washing her face, she just apply some cream and it was over.
It was only when Qin Xiaomin gave the two face masks that she knew about this stuff.
Facial mask?
Qin Muchengâs eyes lit up. âThere are a few types of facial masks. There are moisturizing ones, whitening ones, acne removal ones, and anti-aging ones!â âBrother Mucheng, how do you know so much?â Ji Ziâang looked at Qin Mucheng in admiration.
âThere are a lot of them in my motherâs drawer. Iâve seen them before,â Qin Mucheng said.
With that, he turned around and walked out. âIâm going out for a while. Iâll be back later!â
âUncle Xiao Gong, get in the car. Letâs go to a place!â He called out to Gong Wenbai after he left the house.
When Gong Wenbai heard this, he quickly got into the car and left with Qin Mucheng.
Ji Ziâang watched the car leave and asked curiously, âHeâs in such a hurry. Where is he going?â
Ji Zixuanâs face was full of understanding, but he did not say anything.
About half an hour later, Gong Wenbai returned with Qin Mucheng.
The car had just stopped when Qin Mucheng got out of the car.
He was carrying a bag in his hand, walked to Ji Yuanyuan, and stuffed it into her hands. âI couldnât find the brand that my mother had been using, so I bought another one. 1â11 call my mom tonight and ask her to buy some and send it over.â
Ji Yuanyuan lowered her head and looked inside the bag. It was a high-end skincare brand and was quite expensive.
She opened the bag and saw two boxes of facial masks.
Qin Mucheng said again, âDonât worry and use it. I will buy it for you after you finish using it! My mom said facial masks have to be used regularly to have an effect.â
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Muchengâs serious expression and could not help but want to laugh.
âAll right, thank you Brother Mucheng!â she said while carrying the bag.
He had this intention, so she couldnât hurt his self-confidence, right? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
At night, when they got home, Li Xu took out the facial mask that Qin Mucheng bought and put it on Ji Yuanyuan.
Seeing Ji Yuanyuanâs look of enjoyment, Ji Ziâang also pestered Li Xu for a facial mask.
Li Xu had no choice but to unwrap one for him.
âItâs such an expensive facial mask, itâs such a waste to give it to you!â Li Xu mumbled and said.
Ji Ziâang was very narcissistic. âIt wonât be a waste for me to use it. Mom, help me put on a few more masks. When I earn money in the future, 1â11 buy you a lot of face masks.â
Li Xu laughed, one piece is enough. Itâll be a waste if you use more.
With that, he turned to Ji Zixuan. Zixuan, come over quickly. Iâll apply one for you too.
Of the three children, Ji Zixuan could not be left out.
Ji Zixuan hesitated for a moment and touched his face. In the end, he obediently went forward and let Li Xu put on the mask for him.
The three children sat on the sofa in unison with their heads raised high.
As soon as Zhang Kun came in from the outside, he was shocked to see them.
When he came back to his senses, he touched his chest and said helplessly, âWhatâs this for? I thought 1 entered the wrong house!â
The three of them were sitting upright, their faces pale, only revealing their eyes and nostrils.
Li Xu went up to them and smiled. âMucheng gave Yuanyuan two boxes of facial masks. 1 used them on them. Why are you back so late today?â
Zhang Kun usually got home around six oâclock, but it was almost eight oâclock today.
âI have a friend who sells cars,â Zhang Kun said happily. âYou should know that.â
âThe friend who sold us the tricycle?â Li Xu nodded.
When Li Lei and Li Yong went to buy the three-wheeled motorcycle, they went to Zhang Kunâs friendâs place and got it at a much cheaper price.
âYes, thatâs the one. He gave me a call in the afternoon, so I went to his place after work.â
âWhy is he looking for you?â Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun with some suspicion.
âHe got a very good used car, which only cost 4000 Yuan. âHe called me to ask if 1 wanted it.â
Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun in surprise. âWhat do you mean by that? You want it?â
Zhang Kun nodded. âIâve gone to see it. The condition is indeed very good. There have been no mishaps. 1 was thinking that if we had a car at home, the children would be more comfortable when we go home for the new year. Besidesâ¦â
He looked at the three children and saw they were all staring at him.
âAs the saying goes, itâs better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books,â he said with a smile. âThe children have never left S City, right?â
Without waiting for Li Xu to answer, the three children replied in unison, âNo, I didnât!â
âIf we have a car, we can take the children out to play when weâre free. If itâs nearby, I can come back in a day.â
Zhang Kunâs words moved Li Xu. She turned her head and looked at the three children.
Indeed, the three children had not seen much of the world since they were young..
