Chapter 26 Beauty Cream



Zhao Niangen moved closer, tugged at Zhang Shunlin's sleeve, and looked at him with pleading eyes.

Zhang Shunlin pulled his clothes back and glared at him.

"Dalin, please stay. I don't want to leave this place."

"Hmph, that's your own business. Why should I care whether you leave or not?"

“Actually, you don’t want to leave either, do you?” Zhao Niangen said.

Zhang Shunlin was somewhat annoyed. "Who said I don't want to leave? I'll buy a train ticket and leave tonight."

"But can the money you have reach the county town?" They've never been out before; what if they go to the wrong place?

Zhao Niangen's concerns are always different.

Zhang Shunlin said defiantly, "I can at least walk, right?"

Sheng Qian watched them with interest, not in a hurry, and decided to wait for them to think it through themselves before making a decision.

"Aren't you going to pay respects to your parents? Come over here and offer incense," Sheng Qian interrupted the awkward argument between the two.

Zhang Shunlin walked to the front with a stern face to repair the tomb platform, then burned some paper money, and placed two slightly rotten fruits in front of him. He also bought just enough incense sticks.

They originally planned to descend the mountain and leave after the ceremony.

As a result, Sheng Qian witnessed the event, and the situation changed somewhat.

"Uncle and Aunt, it's fate that we met. My name is Sheng Qian. I'll offer you a stick of incense as a sign of respect."

As she spoke, Sheng Qian bowed to the grave.

When Zhao Niangen heard Sheng Qian's words, he remembered the day his parents passed away, and his eyes reddened.

Zhao Niangen had a very good impression of Sheng Qian.

Zhao Niangen had long forgotten about the scene of the beating.

Anyone who would offer incense to his parents must be a good person!

Sheng Qian was unaware that Zhao Niangen had already categorized her as a good person.

"Alright, think carefully about your next choice. I'm going back now."

Sheng Qian chose a direction and walked very fast.

They disappeared in no time.

Zhao Niangen wanted to speak, but Zhang Shunlin glared at him and he swallowed his words.

"Don't say anything now, or I'll beat you up," Zhang Shunlin's plans were disrupted, and he was already annoyed. Seeing Zhao Niangen's cowardly appearance made him even angrier.

With just one sentence and the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Sheng Qian had won him over.

If I go out in the future, I might get sold out and even help the seller count the money.

Zhao Niangen huddled to one side, staring blankly at the burning incense.

Sheng Qian ran all the way to the mountainside, and suddenly, as if possessed, she ran into the rickety cave entrance, picked up a few pieces of coal, and casually put them into her spatial storage.

Currently, her storage space is limited, so she can no longer store supplies the size of several basketball courts as she used to.

She was eager to upgrade the space, which was only a few square meters.

After putting a few pieces of coal in, he quickly came out. Just as he came out, a section of the mud next to him suddenly collapsed.

Sheng Qian turned her head and glanced at it, then quickly walked down the mountain.

After returning home, Sheng Qian planned to give Long Yunting his medicine, but then she saw Hou Guifang inside and put it away again.

Hou Guifang was sitting in the living room watching TV when she saw a beauty advertisement, and Sheng Qian's heart skipped a beat.

The advertisements of today may seem rather crude, but the products are very popular, at least they are not as heavily adulterated as they were in later generations.

"Aunt Fang, I have a few prescriptions here, specializing in beauty and skin care. I've noticed your complexion hasn't been very good lately, would you like to try them?"

Upon hearing this, Hou Guifang touched her face. "Really? But your uncle said my complexion is much better than at the beginning."

"That was when Long Yunting was injured," Sheng Qian said, quickly changing the subject. "Would you like to try it? The beauty cream I make is definitely better than those on TV, and it can even whiten your skin!"

Which woman doesn't love beauty?

Hou Guifang touched her face and found it was indeed much rougher than before. When she first heard that Long Yunting was seriously injured, Hou Guifang's appetite decreased greatly and she slept less.

Over the course of a few months, he lost weight and his face became much sallow.

"Can it really whiten and beautify the skin?" Actually, rational people wouldn't believe that such a magical thing exists.

“Definitely! But it will take some time to see results!” Sheng Qian sat down and said to Hou Guifang, “Aunt Fang, if you find it useful, please recommend it to the aunties in the neighborhood. Young girls can use it too.”

Hou Guifang was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

It seems like she's just waiting here to give us free publicity.

“Okay, I’ll be the first person to try it out for you,” Hou Guifang said. “If it really works, I’ll have someone take it back to Beijing and have my family help promote it!”

"Thank you so much, Aunt Fang!" Of course, she wouldn't refuse free publicity.

Sheng Qian once again marveled at how kind Heaven had been to her; although her identity was somewhat awkward, overall it was still quite good.

For example, she is still receiving tangible benefits from the Long family.

Sheng Qian thought to herself, "At worst, I can give Hou Guifang some dividends when I make money in the future, as a way of repaying the Long family for their help!"

Having made up her mind, Sheng Qian went into her room to study the recipe.

The herbs used are all very inexpensive and can be easily found in the mountains.

Unlike later generations, where factories pollute the land and even grass cannot grow.

In this pollution-free era, herbs can be found everywhere.

Sheng Qian plans to place several rows of mud and stones in the space to plant herbs that will gradually become extinct in the future!

Hou Guifang watched Sheng Qian go out and come back, carrying a lot of wild grass growing by the roadside. She was very curious. Sheng Qian went in and out twice and brought back a lot of things.

She started fiddling around in the room again, and only came out when Hou Guifang went to call people for dinner.
