Back to the marriage proposal, helping the incompetent husband to rise to the top

Chapter 218: Help if You Can
Ye Wanqing picked a rouge flower seed: "After peeling off the skin of this seed, the white fruit inside can be crushed into powder for facial mask.

Flowers can also be made into rouge.”

As she said this, she asked the guards to crack the seeds open.

Chu Anlan came closer: "Really! The color of this powder is as delicate as white fat, and it matches your skin tone very well!"

As he spoke, he pinched some powder between his fingers, ground it into a fine powder with his fingertips, then turned around and smeared it on the tip of Ye Wanqing's nose.

After applying it, he couldn't help laughing: "Qing'er, you look so good like this! Ha...hahahaha..."

Ye Wanqing looked at him with a smile: "Is it beautiful or funny?"

Chu Anlan laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.

Qianxi tilted her head to take a look, and couldn't help but said, "Pfft..."

The two of them stood on the left and the right, laughing so hard that they fell all over the place.

Unfortunately, without a mirror, Ye Wanqing couldn't see what she looked like at all.

She bent down, picked up a handful of powder and rubbed it between her fingertips, then held Chu Anlan's wrist and said, "Sir, look at me."

Chu Anlan smiled until her eyes turned red: "What's the matter?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the tip of his nose was touched by warm fingertips.

He reacted and tried to struggle, but Ye Wanqing held his wrists tightly and slapped both sides of his face three times.

After applying it, Ye Wanqing looked at him with a bright smile: "Your Highness, you look good like this, too."

"What about me doesn't look good?" Chu Anlan reached out to touch his face: "What did you draw me like?"

Ye Wanqing grabbed his finger and barely stopped him: "Leave it there, don't wipe it off, you'll know when you look in the mirror when you go back home tonight."

"Are you sure I won't be laughed at if I go back like this?" Chu Anlan looked doubtful.

"No." Ye Wanqing replied.

Chu Anlan believed her words without a doubt and smiled: "Then keep it!" Then he rolled up his sleeves and said: "There are so many seeds here, I will pick more and take them back and scatter them under the wall outside the house."

Ye Wanqing nodded: "Okay."

Chu Anlan did what he said, directing the guards to dig flowers and pick seeds.

Ye Wanqing picked a rouge flower and applied a little force with her fingertips. The bright rouge-like flower juice dyed her fingertips red.

She glanced at Chu Anlan who had his back to her, with a smile on her lips. She crushed another seed and rubbed the powder with the flower branches to mix them.

Then, she called Chu Anlan: "Prince."

Chu Anlan turned his head: "Qing'er, what's the matter?"

Suddenly, a sweet fragrance came closer, and Ye Wanqing's fingertips rubbed his nose twice.

After finishing, Ye Wanqing smiled and said, "Your Highness, please continue to be busy."

"Hey?" Chu Anlan wanted to touch her face but didn't dare to, and was so curious that he was scratching his head: "Qing'er, what on earth did you draw for me?"

Ye Wanqing looked calm: "Qianxi, describe her to the prince."

Qianxi's face turned red from trying not to laugh, but she still spoke seriously, "My Lord, this powder is not colored. I am not good at seeing anything unusual."

"Really?" Chu Anlan frowned.

"Yes!" Qianxi said loudly.

Chu Anlan didn't doubt him and turned around to continue picking seeds, and also picked several flowers that were in full bloom.

Soon, voices were heard from inside the house.

Gu Chen put away the acupuncture bag and told Aunt Hua: "I will come here for acupuncture every day for the next seven days.

The rest of the time, you need to massage and rub her body several times a day..."

After giving the instructions, Gu Chen went out carrying the medicine box.

Chu Anlan also finished work with his guards.

After the maids cleared the dining table, they cleaned up the kitchen, put the pots and pans, tables and chairs back in place, and the guards put the hoes back and wrapped up the flowers and held them.

Ye Wanqing asked Gu Chen: "Have you checked Aunt Hua's pulse?" Gu Chen nodded: "My lord, I checked her pulse. Aunt Hua is healthy except for some back strain."

Aunt Hua said, "My lord, don't worry about me. I'm in good health. I'm just an ordinary peasant woman. I'm really grateful for your help.

I have no way to repay your great kindness..."

As he said this, he was about to kneel down and salute.

Ye Wanqing quickly supported her: "Aunt Hua, you get up first."

Qianxi stepped forward and held the man's wrist tightly.

Looking at the woman whose clothes were washed white and whose face was stained with frost, Ye Wanqing spoke slowly, "The prince and I did this not for any reward.

If we met someone else, we would help them if we could.

You and Sister Xiaoke are both kind and affectionate people, and you deserve a better life.

Regardless of how effective Sister Xiao Ke's treatment is, and whether we will meet again in the future, the prince and I hope that you and your mother-in-law can be safe, happy and harmonious."

Aunt Hua's eyes were red. She pulled up the corner of her clothes and wiped her eyes: "I understand..."

Chu Anlan's eyes were stained with rouge, and she smiled brightly at Aunt Hua: "Good people will be rewarded, your husband and son will definitely bless you and your mother-in-law!

Xiao Ke will be fine, and you should be fine too.

Maybe next year Xiao Ke will be able to go to the fields and help you farm!

When the time comes, you and your mother-in-law can expand the wasteland in front of and behind the house and plant vegetables on it.

Next year, I will come to help you sell vegetables!"

Aunt Hua was speechless, but she still managed a smile and nodded vigorously: "Okay..."

Chu Anlan kept smiling and took Ye Wanqing's hand: "I've been busy all day. I'm so sleepy. Let's go home and catch up on some sleep."

Aunt Hua choked up and said, "Go slowly, my prince, and go slowly, my princess."

Chu Anlan didn't even turn his head and pulled a juicy cucumber from the melon and bean rack on the roadside: "I'll take this!"

Aunt Hua's voice came from behind: "Pick more if you like. After we pick them this time, we'll have to wait until next year."

Chu Anlan waved his hand while holding up the cucumber: "Then come back next year to pick them."

Ye Wanqing looked back as she walked.

In the dim light, Aunt Hua stood at the end of the melon and bean rack.

The woman with graying hair hunched her back which was straight during the day, and raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes...

Inexplicably, it makes people's eyes sore.

On the way back, Chu Anlan felt a little depressed.

He ate the cucumber bite by bite, his cheeks bulging and the chewing made a crunching sound.

The carriage was filled with the fresh smell of cucumbers.

Ye Wanqing didn't want to disturb him, so she opened the curtain and spoke to Gu Chen who was walking outside the car: "Doctor Gu."

Gu Chen turned to look at her: "What do you want, Princess?"

Ye Wanqing ordered: "Tomorrow morning, after you come back from giving Xiao Ke acupuncture, come with me to see someone."

"Are you going to see Madam Ling?" Gu Chen said, "I heard them mention it when I came back today."

Ye Wanqing nodded: "Xinrou's heart disease seems to be a bit serious, you should go and see her tomorrow. You studied medicine with Zhang Yuanpan, you are knowledgeable, maybe you can find a way to treat her."

Gu Chen said: "I will remember this."

Just as Ye Wanqing was about to speak, she felt a weight drop on her shoulders.

Turning her head, Chu Anlan had already rested his head on her shoulder and pulled down the car curtain.

Gu Chen wisely took a few steps forward.

Chu Anlan sighed: "In the past, I always felt that I was unlucky. I encountered assassins, was kicked into the moat, and was almost killed by the people sent by Lu Jilian...

It was not until I met Aunt Hua and Madam Ling that I felt that, compared to them, I was already very lucky. "
