“How is it different?”
Tao Meijiao was silent for a moment before saying, “Whenever he looks at you, his gaze is always tender; he likes you for who you are.
Even if you were of average appearance, he would still like you, and if you were to regain your beauty, he would only be more captivated by you.
Do me a favor, wait until I’ve gained his affection and his promise, and then you can wash off the spots on your face.
I believe that if he’s willing to be my husband even after you’ve regained your beauty, that would be something to be cherished.”
Su Qingyue fell silent for a while before saying, “How long would that be?
The third brother is already planning, as soon as the kitchen is completed, to find someone to pick a date to marry me.
I don’t want to be a bride with a face full of ‘yellow medicine spots’.”
“I’ll make sure it’s settled before you get married.
If all else fails, you can restore your original appearance when you get married and forget about me and Xiao Qinghe.”
“Then it’s agreed, I’ll only wait until I’m married, and then I’ll restore my appearance.
But the third brother is probably quite eager to marry me, and it might only be a few days away.”
“Alright,” Tao Meijiao nodded.
Su Qingyue said, “Since you’ve decided to seek my fourth brother as a son-in-law, you shouldn’t just stand around.
Get to know him better.” With that, she took the lead and walked over, softly calling out, “Fourth brother.”
Xiao Qinghe turned his head.
Su Qingyue smiled and said, “Meijiao is a young lady from the Tao Mansion in town, and also my friend.
It’s her first time visiting our village, so please keep her company and take good care of her.”
He nodded slightly.
“I’m going to the pharmacy to research medicine.
You two talk for a while.” Su Qingyue then walked toward one of the rooms.
Xiao Qinghe held a bamboo-woven round dustpan, filled with semi-dried herbs, which he carefully placed on the drying rack in the yard.
Tao Meijiao curiously observed his actions.
“It looks like you’re drying herbs?”
“Hmm,” he nodded, “All of them were…
Qingyue gathered from the mountains.”
“Can you tell which ones need to be dried how?”
“In this period, Qingyue has been teaching me medicine.
I can identify the basic herbs clearly now.”
Tao Meijiao was aware that Qingyue was unrivalled in her medical skill, but surprise still flickered in her eyes.
“I didn’t expect you to be quite impressive.”
Xiao Qinghe found it hard to accept compliments, his face reddened a bit.
“It’s all thanks to Qingyue’s good teaching.”
Meijiao said, “To be taught by Xiao Yue is something truly precious; she’s a teacher you can’t find, even with money.”
“Indeed, she teaches well.” Xiao Qinghe’s eyes brightened as he mentioned Su Qingyue.
Having finished with the herbs in the dustpan, he went to his pharmacy and brought out another basket of semi-dried herbs and picked it up with one hand.
Tao Meijiao hastily offered her help.
“Let me do it.”
Yet, he kept a firm grip on the basket’s handle.
“No need.
Even with my legs disabled, I can still do this kind of work.”
She awkwardly withdrew her hand.
“I didn’t mean it like that…”
With one hand holding the basket and the other wheeling his wheelchair, he went back into the yard, with Tao Meijiao following behind.
She wanted to help him dry the herbs, but not knowing the way, she could only stand by and watch.
“Fourth brother, can you teach me to identify the herbs?”

On her beautiful face was written a desire to learn, and she believed that as a great beauty making such a request, he wouldn’t hesitate to agree.
To her surprise, he simply said indifferently, “Miss Tao, as a young lady from one of the town’s wealthy families, you will naturally have a doctor to attend to you when you are ill.
Why would you need to go through the hardship of studying medicine yourself?”
