Chapter 31 Strange Dreams
It was not until the middle of the night that she recovered from her fever.Without thinking about the woman similar to her in the dream, Chen Mu's bloodshot eyes came into his eyes.

On the short table beside her, her father was dozing off with his chin resting on his head, and her grandma, Tong Shi, was lying beside her in her clothes, half-closed and half-awake, frowning.

Chen's mother made a silent gesture towards her, pointing to Chen's father and Tong's family.

She pursed her lips and nodded, her heart was sour and warm.

Looking at the dark blue eyes and the red blood in the mother's eyes, and thinking of the indifferent family members in the previous life, my heart is both moved and guilty.

She lowered her voice and whispered: "Mother, I'm fine, you go to bed first."

She was so guilty that she didn't know what happened.

I only know that when I came back from the execution ground, I don't know whether my original body is too poor, or my soul doesn't belong to this era. My whole body feels like my soul is out of its shell, and I feel extremely uncomfortable.

Although I was palpitating and frightened at the time, I was not so scared that I had a fever!

The more Chen Yuanyuan thought about it, the more evil she felt, and she couldn't help shivering all over. In short, when people are unlucky, drinking cold water can get stuck between their teeth, so it's better to be careful in the future.

Just as she was thinking, a pair of calloused hands landed on her forehead.

Chen's mother touched her forehead and saw that her body was no longer cold or burned, so she smiled lightly, tucked the quilt for her, and signaled her to rest earlier.

Immediately, he walked to Father Chen's side again, and patted him to wake him up.

Father Chen, who was dozing off, was suddenly awakened and shook his head in a daze for a moment. He didn't come back to his senses until he saw the eldest daughter waking up on the bed.

Chen's mother winked at him, indicating to go back to the room to rest.

Father Chen nodded, then came to Chen Yuanyuan's side gently, and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, big girl, you will never do anything wrong in your life, and you will not be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. Our Chen family is a righteous person!"

It was the first time she had seen Father Chen so gentle, as if with strength, to comfort people's hearts.

Chen Yuanyuan's nose was sour, and she suddenly felt that she was a troublemaker who came to ancient times just to cause trouble for the Chen family.

"Father, I'm sorry..."

She is not a well-behaved and sensible child...

Mother Chen shook her head with a faint smile, and said in a low voice, "Sleep, my parents will tell the shopkeeper tomorrow that I will give you a day off and have a good rest."

She pursed her lips and smiled weakly.

Seeing people squint their eyes, the couple blew out the candle and carefully closed the door.

After the couple went out, they sighed again.

This poor family is afraid of getting sick. Fortunately, Yuanyuan left some silver taels for the family a few days ago, otherwise she would have almost used it now, and she might not even be able to get out a copper coin after a while.

Of course, they definitely don't allow their daughter to gamble and go to brothels!

Gambling on this thing is heresy, and if you get infected, it will be unstoppable, and you will be in trouble for the rest of your life!

Common people, An Ansheng lives well.

***
When she woke up the next morning, Chen Yuanyuan was quite refreshed.

Parents helped her ask for a day off, it was rare to have a relaxing day at home, and they consciously cleaned the house.

Everyone didn't eat at home at noon, so she ate something casually.

After a short nap in the afternoon, I went to visit Pihou again when I had nothing to do.

Pihou's complexion has improved a lot, but he still can't get out of bed by himself, he has to be supported by someone. Fortunately, his spirit is getting better day by day, and the injury will be healed after several follow-up visits.

Pi Hou was very happy to see her, and they chatted for a long time.

Seeing that only Granny Lin, Xueer and the three-year-old little boy were left in the yard, there were no other people waiting.

After asking, I found out that the teenagers in the yard had all gone to work outside.

Either go to the wharf to move goods for others, or do some small business, just like a modern salesman who asks everyone.No matter how bad it is, it is "robbing the rich and helping the poor" in the mouth of the monkey!
No wonder the rumors are so vile, it turns out that such petty theft really happened.

Seeing her original expression, Pihou couldn't help saying angrily: "What are you thinking, it's really robbing the rich and giving to the poor! Those profiteers and prodigal sons, if God doesn't deal with them, can't we teach them a lesson or two?"

"Dede, you are a great hero!"

After Pihou heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and couldn't help teasing the girl: "How can you be as old as you!"

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Yuanyuan didn't stay long and left alone.

Seeing that it was still early, Chen Yuanyuan simply went to the market.

I bought some tools for homemade facial masks-grinding utensils, utensils for placing them, some oil paper for sealing, small gauze for filtering, etc., and many small porcelain jars that are short and palm-sized.

The sum of the miscellaneous things is not expensive, but it takes a lot of time to set up.

At the end, I went to some cosmetic shops.

The rouge gouache inside is really expensive, even the cheapest balm costs tens of hundreds of taels, not to mention the well-packaged rouge inside, which may cost hundreds of taels, as expected, women's money is very easy to earn.

Of course, these are not necessities of life.

For children from poor families, everything other than filling their stomachs is dispensable.

In the future, she may be able to develop some skin care products for the common people.

At least the hand cream is cheaper in winter!
In the past two days, I was washing vegetables in Fulai Building, and my hands were freezing cold. If it was winter, I was afraid that they would crack. After some inquiries, I found out that hand cream was very expensive, and I had to go to a pharmacy to find a doctor to prepare it.

Shaking away the distracting thoughts in my mind, seeing that I still had two hundred cash in my hand, I went to buy some honey and eggs.

It's not too early to work together.

She just returned to the house with big bags and small bags. Shopping really refreshed her mind, her whole body had returned to her previous vitality, her innocent and pretty face was extremely pitiful.

***
After returning to the house, she prepared dinner.

Boiling water and starting a fire, her work skills became more and more proficient, and even she had to sigh: Humans are indeed very adaptable animals!

After working for nearly an hour, she finally finished the dinner.

At this time, the Chen family had almost returned.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she simply took out a small wooden bowl and made her first homemade facial mask.

She poured some honey into the wooden bowl, took some effort with chopsticks to remove the egg whites, added honey and stirred, and put the remaining egg yolks in another bowl.

When you are ready, you are ready to try it on your face.

It coincided with the return of the Chen family, so she had to go to open the door first.

As soon as she opened the door, unexpectedly she was in a hurry, so she had to go to the latrine to relieve herself.

When she came back, the food was already on the table.

Several people laughed and laughed, and sat at the table together, except for Chen's mother who was not there.

"Where's mother?" She couldn't help asking.

"Your mother is in the kitchen, cooking the honey poached egg for you." Father Chen looked happy.

"...W-what?"

How long does it take to go from a bowl of delicate facial mask to a bowl of delicious poached eggs?

In fact, it doesn't even take half an hour!
Mother Chen came out with a few bowls of poached eggs, smiling all over her face: "Seeing that there are still eggs in the room, why don't you make one for each of you three."

"...Mom, you are really thoughtful."

Chen Yuanyuan smiled convulsively while flattering her—the first facial mask in her life, is this the end?
