If we’re going to stay in county for a long spell, then everything must be sorted out fully.
Pick the ripe vegetables from the field and dry them, saving one expense, and delegate Auntie Lan to water the unripe ones daily, which she can have once they mature.
Upon hearing that Nan Feng was going to stay long term in the county, Aqiu and chubby girl visited Nan Feng daily, worried that it would be difficult to see her often in the future. They were always weled with delight by Nan Feng, who offered them melon seeds and peanuts in the yard each day. Nan Quanyou would sometimes e out to chat with them too.
The girls chattered away happily. Aqiu said, “Uncle Nan, will your leg be healed the next time we see you?”
“I heard that Uncle Nan was handsome when he was young. If his leg gets better and he spruces up a bit, he’ll be quite the dashing uncle,” the chubby girl said.
“The next time we see Uncle Nan, he’ll probably be an handsome and good-looking like a town man,” Aqiu said.
Nan Quanyou laughed from the side, “That’s not certain. Dr. An isn’t a Divine Doctor, he just has high medical skills. What if everyone else recovers, but I’m the exception?”
Aqiu quickly forted him, “How could that be? According to Feng, the Divine Doctor is so revered that people from all over seek him out for treatment. He is even more talented than the imperial doctor serving the Emperor.”
Nan Feng finally interjected, “I didn’t exaggerate that much, I just believe that the doctor will undoubtedly cure my dad.”
The conversation eventually led to the discussion about skincare products.
Aqiu looked at chubby girl’s face, “Feng’s face mask works wonders. Even the rough skin of chubby girl’s face has now bee much whiter and smoother.”
Chubby girl pinched Aqiu, “Aren’t you the same? Earlier your face was as black as an eggplant in the vegetable field. Now with Feng’s face mask, your skin is as tender as a sliced winter melon.”
Aqiu lightly tapped chubby girl, “Stop speaking nonsense if you don’t know how to talk. paring me with a winter melon!”
Nan Feng laughed, “She should have pared you to a ripe peach.”
Chubby girl suddenly realized, “Yes, exactly, like a ripe peach.”
Suddenly, chubby girl screamed loudly.
Her scream startled Aqiu and Nan Feng, expecting some creature to have jumped out or seeing a mouse, but everything was calm with no sign of anything unusual, with only chubby girl standing there looking scared.
Aqiu couldn’t help but slap chubby girl, “Be quiet!”
Nan Feng also asked, “Yeah, chubby girl, what are you screaming about? Did you see something?”
The fear on Chubby girl’s face turned into melancholy, “I’ve been using Feng’s face mask every day, and it runs out quickly. What should I do in the future? If I stop using it, will my skin revert? It’s like when I lose weight during the busy farming season due to daily labor, but once it’s over, I gain even more weight.”
Nan Feng couldn’t help laughing, “I will get another bottle for you.”
After that, Nan Feng went in and brought out two more bottles. She was about to hand the face masks to them, but she suddenly hesitated.
Aqiu and Chubby girl had already reached out to take them, but Nan Feng pulled the masks back. Aqiu asked involuntarily, “Feng, you’re not thinking of keeping them, are you?”
Nan Feng just smiled mysteriously, a sudden idea popping into her head.
“Feng, hurry up and give it to me, or I’ll leave and won’t chat with you,” pleaded chubby girl.
Nan Feng laughed and then mysteriously said, “Aqiu, do you remember when I gave you the face mask last time, you promised to do something for me. I didn’t think of what I wanted you to do then, but now I have.”
