Chapter 105: The Temptation of the Beauty Preservation Pill

~7 min read 1,321 words

The two came to the small courtyard where Mu Yun'er lived, and Jiang Nannan opened the door and entered.

"Oh my, Little White, you finally came~"

Mu Yun'er had been waiting in the courtyard early; seeing Bai Zhou come over, it was as if she had seen her own treasure, and she hurriedly walked over, holding Bai Zhou's hand very affectionately, and dragged him into the house, afraid that Bai Zhou would run away.

"Auntie, how have you been lately? Are you getting used to living here~" Bai Zhou also asked with a smile.

"Used to it, used to it, I'm very good here; I'm just afraid you're not used to it..."

Mu Yun'er said with some embarrassment.

After all, Bai Zhou was delicate and tender; one look and you could tell he hadn't suffered any hardships. She was afraid Bai Zhou would look down on her place and afraid he wouldn't come again in the future.

For this, she had gotten up before dawn today to clean up.

"I think it's quite good here; I like it here very much~" Bai Zhou still had a gentle smile.

The two chatted and laughed, asking about each other's well-being, directly ignoring Jiang Nannan on the side.

"Hey, you two..."

Seeing this, Jiang Nannan stomped her feet fiercely, feeling very helpless.

She really wanted to ask, who exactly was the biological one...

How could it be like this...

"Nannan, what are you doing outside? Why don't you come in and eat!"

After a good while, a loud shout from Mu Yun'er urging them came from inside the house.

"Co... coming..."

Jiang Nannan pouted and replied very reluctantly, then quickly entered the house.

The house wasn't big, but it was exceptionally neat and clean, clearly just tidied up.

The dining table wasn't big either, an ordinary small square table, but there were eight dishes and one soup, all steaming hot, filling the dining table.

Mu Yun'er pulled Bai Zhou to sit by her side and had already started eating, Mu Yun'er constantly putting food into Bai Zhou's bowl.

Jiang Nannan could only sit on a broken small stool opposite the two, looking still a bit aggrieved.

"Nannan, the chicken soup in the pot should be ready; go get a bowl for Little White."

Mu Yun'er ordered without raising her head.

"I just sat down..."

The chopsticks in Jiang Nannan's hand paused, feeling even more aggrieved.

She hadn't eaten a single bite of food since morning until now; now that she had just picked up her chopsticks, why did she have to work again...

How could it be like this?

Of course, this wasn't because she was lazy; she was still very diligent on weekdays.

It was just that without comparison, there was no harm; the vegetables in Bai Zhou's bowl were overflowing, while she couldn't even eat a single hot vegetable, which was very uncomfortable.

"Sister Nannan, let me do it." Bai Zhou stopped Jiang Nannan just as she was about to get up.

"Auntie, Sister Nannan is also very tired; let her eat more~" Bai Zhou said to Mu Yun'er again.

Then he got up and went into the kitchen himself.

"Look at Little White, how sensible; look at you again."

Mu Yun'er waited until Bai Zhou entered the kitchen before glaring at Jiang Nannan lightly.

"Slurp..."

Jiang Nannan turned a deaf ear to this.

After all, she was already used to it.

Ever since she brought Bai Zhou back last time, her mother's attitude toward her had completely changed; after all, there was someone else's child to compare with... she was like a piece of trash at home...

If it were someone else, she might have fought for a breath.

But comparing with Bai Zhou...

What could she do...

Fortunately, Bai Zhou would still say a word for her; he still had a bit of conscience...

"Chicken soup is here~"

Bai Zhou walked over with a large bowl. He gave Mu Yun'er a bowl first and smiled: "Auntie, drink more; it's good for your health."

"Eh, Little White is so good~"

Seeing this, Mu Yun'er instantly bloomed with a smile, looking at Bai Zhou with full love.

This son-in-law was truly too good; if she could be a few decades younger, she would absolutely pursue Bai Zhou actively.

Then, Bai Zhou gave Jiang Nannan a bowl.

"Sister Nannan, you drink more too; don't tire yourself out."

"Mm, thank you."

Jiang Nannan naturally heard the strange meaning in Bai Zhou's words, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only smile and glare at Bai Zhou lightly...

Then she quickly withdrew her gaze and buried her head in drinking the soup.

Seeing this, Bai Zhou was very satisfied.

Then he sat down and suddenly took out an exquisite box and handed it to Mu Yun'er: "Auntie, I came in a hurry this time and didn't bring any good gifts; you keep this Beauty Preservation Pill first."

As Bai Zhou spoke, he opened the box lightly.

"Click~"

The box opened, revealing a milky-white pill inside, fragrant and pungent; one look and you could tell it was an extraordinary object.

"This this this... this is a pill... no no, this is too precious; I can't accept it..."

Mu Yun'er was just an ordinary person and didn't know what a Beauty Preservation Pill was, but she knew that every pill was a very precious treasure and not something an ordinary person like her could afford.

"Auntie, just accept it; this pill has the effect of beauty and youth preservation, and it can keep you looking young for 10 years."

Bai Zhou took Mu Yun'er's warm jade hand lightly and stuffed the pill into her hand.

This Beauty Preservation Pill looked very precious, but it only had an effect on ordinary people; Bai Zhou got it after wishing once, so it really wasn't much to him.

But it had great benefits for Mu Yun'er.

After all, everyone had a heart for beauty, let alone a great beauty like Mu Yun'er.

And Bai Zhou mainly wanted to make Mu Yun'er happy; when the mood was good, the body was naturally good too.

"Ah! Keep looking young for 10 years, this..."

Mu Yun'er exclaimed, covering her little mouth instantly, somewhat incredulous.

She naturally knew how precious such a divine object was, countless times more precious than ordinary pills; logically speaking, she absolutely couldn't accept it.

After all, she had already accepted a betrothal gift once; if she accepted another, she had no daughter left; she couldn't marry herself off, right...

But the effect of the Beauty Preservation Pill made her reluctant to part with it, and she really couldn't help but want it...

"Mom, just accept it; this is Little White's heart."

Seeing her mother hesitating, Jiang Nannan also spoke up to persuade.

Although she said so, she was still sour in her heart; after all... Bai Zhou hadn't given her a gift...

She also wanted a Beauty Preservation Pill...

"Alright, alright, alright, Little White's heart, then I'll shamelessly accept it..."

Mu Yun'er was also a bit embarrassed at this moment, but ultimately accepted the pill and held it tightly in her arms.

"That's right; we'll be a family from now on, and Auntie is my relative; this little gift is nothing."

Bai Zhou said with a smile.

Bai Zhou and Mu Yun'er exchanged pleasantries again, and Mu Yun'er pretended to have something to do and left, saying she was going out to relax.

Of course, Bai Zhou and Jiang Nannan both knew that Mu Yun'er was leaving space for them to be alone.

After all, the courtyard was so small, and there was only one small room next to it, and the soundproofing was extremely poor, really not suitable for the intimacy of a young couple...

Mu Yun'er was a person who had been through it and naturally knew the limits.
