“A red packet is customary for new marriages; you should accept it,” Qingyue said.

“Then I’ll gladly accept it.” Auntie Gui, who had never seen such generosity before, usually received only a few copper coins for helping with makeup.

Encountering soone giving away broken silver for the first ti, she thought it was normal considering they were the richest family in the village and joyfully pocketed the reward money.

“Uh, Auntie Gui, could I trouble you to bring in a bucket of hot water and a wooden basin?

ijiao wants to wash her face,” Qingyue added.

She had already put on her makeup and naturally couldn’t say it was herself who wanted to wash her face.

“I’ll get it right away.” After receiving Qingyue’s money, Auntie Gui imdiately went to fetch the hot water, considering it a small task.

Knowing that Xiao Yue only requested the face washing water for herself, Tao ijiao approached her and said, “Are you going to wash off the fake spots on your face?”

“Yes.” She nodded.

A hint of guilt flickered in Tao ijiao’s beautiful eyes.

“Xiao Yue, I’m sorry.

You should’ve shown your true beauty long ago; it was who delayed you for so long.”

“It doesn’t matter,” she said.

“Third Brother truly doesn’t care whether I am beautiful or ugly; how I look really doesn’t matter to him.”

ijiao had been staying at the Xiao Family’s house for more than twenty days, long before the date was set for her to get married to Chuan.

Indeed, Chuan had never so much as glanced at ijiao.

She also noticed that his gaze never lingered on any other woman.

Just as Auntie Gui had said, not to ntion Tao ijiao, a great beauty, but even Liu Yuhong, Liu Xianglian, and Shi Shanzao—who were all more beautiful than her—didn’t catch Chuan’s eyes; he only had eyes for her, Su Qingyue.

Of course, they were more beautiful than her only when she deliberately made her skin appear dull and covered her face with spots, wearing an ugly makeup.

Once she washed off the deliberate ugliness, not to ntion the won she had seen in her life, even adding those she had seen in her last life, none could match the beauty of her true appearance.

Hence, unwilling to be a co-wife, she could only disguise her true beauty to prevent any of the three n of the Xiao Family from wishing to step aside.

Auntie Gui quickly entered the room with a hot water bucket in her hand and an empty wooden washbasin, placed the bucket aside, and set the wooden basin on the corner washbasin stand.

“Miss Tao, your face washing water is here.”

She thought about how young ladies from the town were different from the villagers; in the village, a single basin was enough for anyone washing their face, but a young lady required an entire bucket.

It was normal for a young miss with peculiar habits to have more needs.

Qingyue said, “Auntie Gui, I can dress myself in the bridal clothes, you may go out first.”

“Alright, make sure to change quickly.

There’s less than an hour left before the wedding ceremony,” Auntie Gui advised before leaving the room.

Qingyue went to bolt the door and saw Xiao Yuchuan standing outside, chuckling to herself.

Third brother was indeed afraid she would run away, but if she really didn’t want to get married, her skills would make his vigilance pointless.

After bolting the door, she went over to the corner shelf, poured the hot water from the bucket into the basin, took a small pot from the shelf with pre-ground soapberry juice, and added so to the basins.

After that, she washed off the makeup Auntie Gui had applied to her face.

She tossed the water out the back window and filled the wooden basin only with enough hot water for a bowl.

She took out a small white porcelain bottle from her sleeve pocket, poured the dicine powder from the bottle into the hot water, and the dicine powder rged with the hot water into a dicinal paste.

Qingyue spread the dicinal paste onto her face, then gently massaged with the tips of her fingers, ensuring every part of her face was covered with the paste.

Then, she pulled up a desk with a backrest to sit on.
