Chapter 56 Instigation
The next day, Su Yaoguang and Jiang Jing made a scar removal cream.

In order to test the effect of the ointment, she first applied it on her old scars and personally observed the changes after use.

Jiang Jing also had many old scars on her body. Seeing Su Yaoguang experimenting on herself, she was not willing to be outdone and applied the solution on herself as well.

The first feeling after applying it is a cool sensation, and there is no other feeling for the time being. As for the effect, we need to observe it for a few days to know the situation. After all, this is an ointment, not a magic pill.

"Yaoguang..." Jiang Cuilan waved at her at the door.

Su Yaoguang noticed her mysterious look and went over to ask, "What's wrong?"

"I just came from Jiang Yihuan's house. Guess what? Xiao Ci, the slave Jiang Yihuan bought, has become Jiang Yihuan's cousin. He's now a good citizen, not a slave."

Su Yaoguang had learned yesterday that Xiao Yanci was going to the academy, and the development of this story didn't surprise her. The master valued Xiao Yanci's talent and had even promised to waive his and Jiang Yihui's tuition fees to accept him as a student. The Jiang family would surely agree. However, getting Xiao Yanci a good student status would require some effort, and she wondered how Zhong Lanhua had managed it.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"How is it not related? That slave was clearly found for you, but you thought he was too expensive and bought your future husband instead. I'm not saying your husband is bad. Ten cents to buy such a handsome husband is certainly a good deal, but I heard from Jiang Yihui that your husband is not a good student and has average talent! Yaoguang, don't you think it's a pity? If you had bought Xiao Ci back then, you would have such a good thing as no tuition fees now. I really feel sorry for you."

"I don't think it's a pity." Su Yaoguang saw Xiao Yanci passing by the door with a book box on his back and said, "My husband studies only to understand reason. Whether he can pass the imperial examination is not important. As long as he is happy, it's fine if he doesn't take the imperial examination and just goes to the academy to learn a few words. My husband is kind-hearted, hardworking and capable, and he is also very polite to my mother. I am very lucky to have met him."

Jiang Cuilan laughed dryly: "As long as you are happy."

Are you kidding me? Although Zhou Wangshu is very handsome, compared to someone as talented and handsome as Xiao Yanci, the gap is huge. If Su Yaoguang had bought Xiao Yanci in the first place, and invested more time in helping him pass the imperial examinations, he might have become the wife of a high-ranking official. Now that she has married a man with mediocre qualifications, her dream of becoming an official wife is gone.

Jiang Cuilan had originally wanted Su Yaoguang to go to the Jiang family and cause some trouble, letting the Su family and the Jiang family fight each other, so that she could watch the fun. But now that Su Yaoguang refused to accept the challenge, her plan of instigating trouble had completely failed.

As the most beautiful girl in the village, Jiang Yihuan was particularly infatuated with the young men, but most of the girls were jealous of her. Now that she had a chance encounter with Xiao Ci, the envy was even greater. They didn't dare to do anything, so they tried to instigate those who dared to do it. However, they had underestimated Su Yaoguang's intelligence; she didn't seem as foolish as they had imagined.

When Xiao Yanci heard Su Yaoguang's words, a mocking look flashed in his eyes.

That village girl is just deceiving herself. She must be regretting it so much in her heart.

Let her be stubborn for now, one day he will hear her say words of regret with his own ears.

Jiang Yihui followed empty-handed. Zhong Lanhua chased him, saying caring words, and quietly urged him to build a good relationship with Xiao Yanci and ask him to help her with tutoring at critical moments.

Jiang Yihui's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it. Zhong Lanhua was unaware of it and continued to give him instructions.

Jiang Yihui couldn't stand it any longer and yelled, "Have you said enough? Are you annoying?"

Zhong Lanhua was startled by him and stopped talking.

"Yi Huan, Xiao Ci is so powerful, why don't you recruit him as a son-in-law like Yaoguang did?" asked Su Xiaolian, a girl of the same age in the village.

Jiang Yihuan clutched her handkerchief and said in a pretentious manner, "I have an older brother, so why should I look for a live-in son-in-law? Besides, marriage is such a big deal. If I just marry any man, what's the point of life? I want to marry someone I really like. If I marry him, it won't be because of how beautiful, talented, or rich he is, but because I like him very much." "Yihuan, I just chopped some firewood. I'll carry it to the yard for you to dry in the sun." Zhang Dachun carried firewood and looked at Jiang Yihuan with burning eyes.

The gentleness on Jiang Yihuan's face almost collapsed.

Zhang Dachun is really ugly.

He was ugly, but he had beautiful thoughts and was always hanging around her. Lately, he had been helping with the water, firewood, and weeding the fields.

At first she was very nervous, worried that Zhang Dachun was so attentive because he wanted something in return. But as he gave more and more, she became more and more accustomed to it and accepted his kindness frankly.

"Thank you, Brother Dachun." Jiang Yihuan said stiffly.

“Yi Huan, it turns out you like this type.” Amelia Su said loudly on purpose.

"No, no." Jiang Yihan quickly covered Amelia Su's mouth.

"If you don't like Brother Dachun, why do you let him help you with work?" Su Xiaolian pried Jiang Yihan's fingers away and yelled loudly in the direction of Zhang Dachun.

"Oh my, what are you talking about?" Zhong Lanhua sent Jiang Yihui back and happened to see Su Xiaolian and Jiang Yihan arguing.

Jiang Yihuan has to maintain a gentle and harmless image to the outside world. Sometimes, even when she suffers a loss, she dares not fight back because she does not want to damage her image.

At this time, Zhong Lanhua became the dagger that stabbed out. She was the one who took care of the bloody and fatal things. This way, not only would she not suffer any loss, but Jiang Yihuan could also continue fishing.

"Mom, it's okay. Xiaolian has some misunderstandings about me and Dachun. I just need to explain it to her."

Zhong Lanhua put one hand on her waist and said in a shrill voice, "What's there to misunderstand? We are just two weak women at home, and there is no one to do the hard work. It just so happens that Dachun is kind-hearted and cares about the neighbors, and is willing to do some work for us. Dachun is a kind-hearted person who helps others without asking for anything in return. Why are you, a little girl, unhappy about it? What's the matter? Are you attracted to Dachun and think we are trying to steal her away from you?"

“I didn’t.” Amelia Su curled her lips, “Who could like him?”

She is so ugly that only a blind man would like her.

Zhang Dachun had not walked far yet, but he heard all the arguments here.

Of course he offered to help because of Jiang Yihuan, because Jiang Yihuan was one of the few girls who didn't show disgust on her face when she saw him, so he had liked her a long time ago.

Although he had never expected Jiang Yihan to like him, he still felt a little disappointed when he heard the mother and daughter deny it with his own ears.

Forget it, I'd better not help.

He is so ugly. If he continues to help her like this and the villagers continue to gossip about them, it will harm her.
