Farmer girl swaps husbands: buys a sickly villain and pampers him

Chapter 11 Support
Su Yaoguang applied a little lipstick on Zhang Zhaodi's lips and showed her the bronze mirror.

Zhang Zhaodi's originally dull face actually became brighter because of this little red.

"I have nothing to do these days, so I can help you. You teach me how to do it." Zhang Zhaodi immediately became interested.

"In addition to lipstick, I also want to make stone ink, powder, rouge, flower ornaments, facial cream, etc." Su Yaoguang said, "These things also have many categories. I will make two or three kinds of each type, and then make ten boxes of each. When I have enough, I can send them to the city to sell."

"Mom will help you."

"Mom, aren't you going to ask me how I know all this?"

"I'm often not at home, and you're always alone at home. I heard from them that you always like to go outside the private school to eavesdrop on the teacher's lectures. They also said that you disappear once you enter the city, and asked me to keep an eye on you and not let you go wild. I once secretly followed you and found you helping in the kitchen at Mr. Li's house. The things you know must be skills you learned from different people. There's nothing for me to ask, I trust you."

Su Yaoguang was a little dazed.

Yes! It was so long ago that she almost forgot that she used to be a little girl who ran around to make a living and looked for work everywhere to help her mother share the pressure.

Zhou Wangshu got out of bed and walked around on the fifth day.

His external wounds have scabbed over, and as long as he doesn't get hurt again, he can help with the work at hand.

Seeing Zhou Wangshu's recovery, Zhang Zhaodi no longer treated him coldly. She repeatedly suggested signing a marriage contract and filing it with the government. Zhou Wangshu fully cooperated, while Su Yaoguang, on the other hand, declined, citing their youth.

"You want to go up the mountain with me?" Su Yaoguang saw Zhou Wangshu following her and looked at him. "Your injury hasn't healed yet, so it's better not to take the risk of going up the mountain."

"I'm very good at using a slingshot. If you encounter wild beasts, it can help you scare them away." Zhou Wangshu said as he took out the slingshot he had made long ago.

Zhang Zhaodi fiddled with the petals nearby and said, "Let him follow you. If he's a grown man and doesn't protect you, do you really want him to be your supporter?"

Zhou Wangshu wore Su's father's clothes, which seemed a bit too big for him. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his scarred arms.

This body was covered with wounds everywhere except on the face. It was hard to imagine what kind of life he had lived before.

Su Yaoguang had suffered at the hands of men before, and knew that feeling sorry for a man would lead to bad consequences. However, the desperate young man in her past life overlapped with the young man in her present life.

"Then follow me and don't run around." Su Yaoguang said, "Don't carry the backpack. You're still injured. Just carry a basket and dig some wild vegetables."

Su Yaoguang led Zhou Wangshu up the mountain. As they passed through the village, many people looked over. Only then did they get a closer look at Zhou Wangshu's appearance, and they were all amazed.

"Yaoguang girl is really getting a bargain. Such a handsome man only costs ten cents. No wonder she took the risk to buy him."

"She said before that she was at a loss for not buying the one from the Jiang family. Now it seems that the one from the Jiang family costs one and a half taels of silver, and he's weak and can't do anything. This one only costs ten cents, and he looks just as good as that one. Most importantly, this one has a sweet mouth! Look at how sweet he smiles at Yaoguang girl, he looks so lovable."

"Hello, auntie... Hello, sister... Hello, brother... Hello, uncle..." Zhou Wangshu greeted people along the way, making the villagers so confused that they didn't know which way was which.

He was handsome, with clear eyes, and because of the injuries on his body, he looked a little pitiful. When he smiled, he was like a mountain flower blooming, especially gorgeous.

Xiao Yan left with a cold and aloof air, yet he was still proud of his status and aloof. In his previous life, his behavior had offended many people, but she and her mother had protected him. Later, he became a good student of hers, and had the opportunity to take the imperial examination. The villagers, seeing his academic prowess, rushed to curry favor with him, making him even more aloof.

With Xiao Yanci as a comparison, Zhou Wangshu's quick integration made her feel extremely reassured. Sure enough, she had opened her eyes carefully this time and had not made a mistake in choosing him.

After going up the mountain, Su Yaoguang started picking flowers. She needed a lot of fresh flowers for the rouge and powder she was going to make, so she had to go up the mountain to pick fresh flowers every day.

"Don't wander off," she warned Zhou Wangshu, then began searching for her target. Zhou Wangshu aimed his slingshot at a pheasant in the bushes. With a thud, the pheasant cackled twice and fell to the ground.

Su Yaoguang: "..."

She trotted over, picked up the pheasant from the bushes, and said in surprise, "It's dead already?"

The traps she had dug hadn't caught a single prey yet, while he only needed a slingshot to hunt. This kid's value was still rising, which made her look at him even more differently.

Zhou Wangshu blushed and said embarrassedly, "It's just a coincidence."

"Then you're lucky."

Su Yaoguang found a patch of flowers and began to pick petals.

She didn't have time to pay attention to Zhou Wangshu. She only looked up at him occasionally to make sure he was nearby and not running around, then bent down and continued picking.

When she had finished picking all the flowers in this area, her backpack was full. She dug up a dozen flowers and put them in the basket Zhou Wangshu had just brought, intending to transplant them into the yard.

She planned to run this business for a long time and needed a large quantity of flowers. The mountains were a good place to start, and she also needed to grow some herself, otherwise she would run out of stock.

"Where did these rabbits come from? Two of them?" Su Yaoguang was curious.

Zhou Wangshu pointed to a rabbit hole not far away and said, "I caught one there, a male and a female. Let's take them home and raise them!"

"Are you a lucky star? I've gained so much just by bringing you out here?" Su Yaoguang asked, "Can you bring it up?"

"Although I'm injured, I still have enough strength to carry two rabbits and a pheasant," Zhou Wangshu said. "Shall we go down the mountain now?"

"Yes, let's go!"

When Su Yaoguang and Zhou Wangshu returned with their load, they met Xiao Yanci at the foot of the mountain. Xiao Yanci was carrying firewood, his face covered in dust and dripping with sweat.

He saw Su Yaoguang and Zhou Wangshu and stopped wiping his sweat. His gaze lingered on the things they were carrying, and a look of frustration flashed in his eyes.

These days he only ate corn buns, and only Jiang Yihan would secretly give him some other food every day, sometimes an egg, sometimes a few slices of meat.

That Zhong Lanhua was pretty, but incredibly mean, and couldn't possibly match the kindness of her daughter. He had to find a way to change his current situation and stop being a pushover. He heard her son was coming home from his vacation soon, and he was still attending a private school. Perhaps this was his chance.

Su Yaoguang walked past Xiao Yanci.

Zhou Wangshu glanced at Xiao Yanci, picked up the rabbit and chased after Su Yaoguang.

"Yaoguang, I don't want to drink chicken soup. I want to eat braised food. Is that okay?" Zhou Wangshu said.

"Sure." Su Yaoguang said, "You caught the chicken, you can eat it however you want."

Xiao Yanci listened to the conversation between the two and suddenly felt a little envious.

Tsk, there's nothing to envy. That village girl is also a shrew, even more vulgar and rude than Zhong Lanhua.
