Shen Qingqiu was stunned when he heard this.
Gu Yanran touched her face and said, "It's not that I can't accept him, it's that I can't accept the rumors outside." And he can accept herself, but what about his family?
In the future, if there are any banquets at home, she will have to attend as the hostess. What should she do if she is laughed at by others? "Everything that happens in the future, although it is a small matter, will happen, and his feelings for me may be erased by these things." Gu Yanran smiled gently, "Originally, marriage is not a matter between two people. In fact, at this point, there are still people who like me and are willing to protect me desperately. I am already very satisfied."
She paused, "As for the rest, I don't have that many extravagant hopes."
Hearing Gu Yanran say this, Shen Qingqiu felt uncomfortable.
Although Gu Yanran's appearance was ruined because she had done many wrong things in the past, she has corrected herself now. Does she have to live with such scars for the rest of her life? That woman, Princess Changping, did so many vicious things, but she was not punished at all. Isn't it too unfair for God?
"Yanran, I will find a way to fix your face." Shen Qingqiu pinched his fingertips. Isn't it just disfigurement?
Since she could even cure the Ninth Prince and the Ninth Princess' terminal illnesses, what was so wrong with a mere disease on her face?
"Qingqiu?" Gu Yanran looked at Shen Qingqiu, "You don't have to do so much for me, I'm fine the way I am now." Gu Yanran thought Shen Qingqiu was comforting her and didn't think much about it.
Shen Qingqiu shook his head, "Just wait here for my good news."
After saying that, he turned and left.
As long as it is an injury, it can be cured. What is the difference between an injury on the face and an injury on the body?
Moreover, there are skin grafting surgeries now. Although there are not so many technical conditions in this era, there are many lost herbs in ancient times. Maybe she can find the herbs that can bring back the dead to life and help Gu Yanran treat her face? Thinking of this, Shen Qingqiu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Volcanic rocks! Oh, why did she forget about the volcanic rocks? Since the volcanic rocks can help Gu Yanwei and the Ninth Princess to heal their illnesses, why can't they help Gu Yanran to heal her face? The volcanic rocks can bring back the dead, can they not bring back the dead? Unfortunately, the volcanic rocks she brought back were diluted, and the medicinal properties of these rocks might not be enough to heal Gu Yanran's face. If she wanted to heal her face, she might have to go back to Fangjia Village. And she could only go to Fangjia Village by herself. If someone with ulterior motives knew about the volcanic rocks, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingqiu had already decided that she would go back to Fangjia Village to get the volcanic stone.
That night, Shen Qingqiu rode her horse quickly to Fangjia Village. She did not tell anyone about her trip this time. She arrived alone and quickly dug out the things hidden there.
Holding the small stone in his hand, Shen Qingqiu whispered, "I'm sorry." Originally, if this volcanic rock was left here, it could benefit the local animals.
Shen Qingqiu has always believed that all things have spirits, and humans are not much nobler than other creatures, but she has no other choice now. She can only choose to save the important people around her first.
“If I have the chance, I will come back here.”
If the talented people here are no longer blessed because of her behavior this time, then she will become the lucky star here and bring blessings back to this place.
Shen Qingqiu didn't waste any more time and rode back to the capital at full speed.
"Miss, where have you been? Why haven't I seen you for three days?" Jin Cai said, "Madam has been looking for you these days. If she really can't find you, she will send guards to look for you."
Shen Qingqiu took off his cloak and handed it to Jin Cai, "I was in a hurry to leave, so I forgot to tell you. Go tell my mother first that I'm fine. I have some things to do next, so I won't go to see her for now."
After saying that, he opened the door and started preparing medicine for Gu Yanran.
She closed the door so hastily that Jin Cai's nose was almost slammed. She touched her nose in confusion, "What's the important matter? You don't even have time to say a word." Jin Cai also didn't understand and sighed, "Forget it, Madam has been anxious for so long, I'll go tell Madam first."
Shen Qingqiu didn't know how long she had been busy in the room. She didn't stop until it got dark.
"Jin Cai," she called Jin Cai's name loudly.
"Here comes the girl!" Jin Cai replied.
"Go ask the kitchen to prepare a meal for me. I'm starving." He had been eating dry food all the way, and when he came back he was in a hurry to make medicine for Gu Yanran. Naturally, he couldn't take care of anything else when he was busy. Now that he was not busy, he was hungry.
Jin Cai went to the kitchen and soon brought a bowl of old duck soup and shredded pork noodles to Shen Qingqiu, "Summer ingredients are not fresh, so the kitchen didn't have any left. I made you a bowl of shredded pork noodles. The duck soup can be kept for a long time, so I brought it to you."
After Jin Cai put the noodles down, Shen Qingqiu began to eat them voraciously.
"Girl, slow down. Why do you come back like you're fleeing after going out?"
Isn't it just fleeing? Shen Qingqiu thought, he was exhausted all the way, even worse than the refugees, at least the refugees could get enough sleep, but she had to travel day and night in order to get back quickly to prepare the medicine.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingqiu wanted to shed some bitter tears for himself.
After eating, Jin Cai put away the bowl.
Seeing that Shen Qingqiu looked like she was going out, he immediately asked, "Miss, what are you going to do?"
Shen Qingqiu said: "I'll go find the fourth girl."
Jin Cai looked at her clothes meaningfully, "Girl, you should wash up and change your clothes first..." She was exhausted from traveling all the way. If it were winter, it would be okay, but it was summer. If she didn't take a shower for three days and was running under the scorching sun, even a beauty would sweat.
The beauty's sweat also stinks.
Shen Qingqiu finally reacted after hearing what Jin Cai said. He lowered his head and smelled his body... As expected, there was a fishy smell.
She had just finished a bowl of noodles with such a smell. For some reason, she felt a little nauseous now.
"Go get me some water. I need to wash up." Shen Qingqiu ordered hurriedly.
Jin Cai said: "Yes."
Soon the kitchen brought hot water, Shen Qingqiu took a hot bath in the tub, and cleaned her hair with the help of Jin Cai. Jin Cai took out a new dress, changed her daughter into it, and re-braided her hair before letting her out.
Shen Qingqiu carefully took the white porcelain bottle to meet Gu Yanran.
"Yanran?" She knocked on Gu Yanran's door.
After a while, Gu Yanran opened the door, "Qingqiu?"
"Where have you been these days? Why haven't I seen you?" Gu Yanran quickly opened the door and asked her to come in.
Shen Qingqiu said: "I went to prepare medicine for you."
"Prepare medicine for me?" Gu Yanran was stunned for a moment, then she remembered what Shen Qingqiu said when they had dinner together last time. She couldn't help but be moved, "Qingqiu, you really don't have to do so much for me. I have already accepted this face of mine. I——"
"It's useless for you to accept it. I want others to accept your face, too." Shen Qingqiu is such a person. He hates her and wants her to die, but if he really treats her as his own, he will be very protective of her.
She took out a white porcelain bottle from her bosom and said, "Yanran, actually, when I went to the Ninth Prince's fiefdom, I wasn't just going to enjoy the cool air. I was going to treat the Ninth Princess's chronic illness."
Gu Yanran was stunned for a moment, "Isn't the Ninth Princess's illness something she brought from birth?" Many people knew this.
Shen Qingqiu nodded, "It is because the poison from birth is difficult to cure, so so many imperial doctors are helpless, and I accidentally got a medicine called volcanic stone, which happens to help people reshape their bones and muscles, and that is how I cured the Ninth Princess's illness." Gu Yanran clenched her palms when she heard this, "Is it really cured?"
Can a stubborn disease like the Ninth Princess' be cured? "Of course it's cured. Would I lie to you?" Shen Qingqiu smiled. "Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe in the miraculous medicine I got. Yanran, your face will definitely get better."
She held out her hand, "I'll apply medicine for you."
But Gu Yanran saw the wounds she had, which were caused by carelessness when making medicine.
Gu Yanran's tears fell down, she reached out and grabbed Shen Qingqiu's hand, "Qingqiu, why are you so good to me——" The better she treated her, the more she would think of the wrong things she had done in the past, and the more guilty she would feel.
"I'm not a good person. I really don't deserve you to do this for me. It's a waste to use such a magical medicine on someone like me."
Shen Qingqiu held her hand in return, "What do you mean by not worth it? What do you mean by someone like you? I only know that you, Gu Yanran, are from my mansion and my sister, Shen Qingqiu. I don't know anything else."
"It's the same old saying. Everyone makes mistakes. Even Buddha made mistakes. If you put down your butcher knife, you will become a Buddha instantly. If you don't take my words to heart, then you won't forget what Buddha said either?"
Gu Yanran lowered her head and finally stopped crying.
Seeing her crying like this, Shen Qingqiu said, "Forget it, you should go wash your face first. How can you apply medicine like this?"
Gu Yanran nodded, asked the maid to fetch some water, and quickly washed her face clean.
Seeing Shen Qingqiu pouring a lot of powder into his hands and applying it on her face, and knowing that it was a medicine that could bring back the dead, Gu Yanran naturally couldn't bear to part with it, "Qingqiu, you should save it. If you only use such good medicine on your face, wouldn't it be a waste?"
Shen Qingqiu smiled, "Don't worry, I have plenty of this medicine."
The wounds on Gu Yanran's face have lasted for at least a year. Even if she treated it, she would have to apply medicine for two or three months. Of course, one application of medicine powder was not enough. After two or three months, when the scars faded, there would always be some faint marks. At that time, she would still have to apply medicine occasionally.
"Look at you, you're so busy, how can you look like the daughter of a marquis?" Shen Qingqiu smiled deliberately, "You weren't like this when we first met."
"You're making fun of me." Gu Yanran felt a little embarrassed.
“I’m not making fun of you,” Shen Qingqiu applied the medicine to her gently, “You were arrogant before and did some wrong things, but now you’re too calm, and the old lady is worried. Don’t think about how much it cost to treat the wound on your face, you just need to know that you’re healed, and everyone is happy. The old lady will be happy too.”
Gu Yanran lowered her head and said, "It is really wrong for me, as a junior, to make the old lady sad."
“Now that you know that, you should use more medicine to make your face get better quickly.” Shen Qingqiu said.
Seeing that she always reminded herself to take medicine, Gu Yanran smiled and said, "I know, little housekeeper."
After applying the powder, Shen Qingqiu wanted to help Gu Yanran wrap the bandage, but at this moment, Gu Yanran suddenly fell to the ground, "Yanran, Yanran!" Shen Qingqiu hurried to pat her, but Gu Yanran was not breathing at all.
Shen Qingqiu hurriedly helped the man to the bed and began to feel his pulse.
