Chapter 107 - 109 Making Medicines



He had always kept the waters collected from different seasons, not for any other reason but because it was a tradition of the Chen family. These waters were often difficult to find, unless you had extraordinary luck and a significant amount of goodwill to amass it all within a year.

Few people had such extraordinary luck.

It took Chen Zhong five years to collect all four kinds of seasonal water, and he’d generously handed it over to his young apprentice. He sighed.

“You can’t keep getting uglier, or not only will your father burst into tears, but I will too.”

“There hasn’t been anyone unattractively ugly in the Chen family. If you turn out to be hideously ugly, how can I face our founding patriarch?”

Tang Yuxin had to resist the urge to roll her eyes.

Why did he keep emphasizing how ugly she was? Yes, she was a bit short, dark-complected, and thin as a monkey in her previous life, but was she really that ugly?

At most, she was ordinary.

Nothing more than common.

In other words, she was just a grain of sand in the sea.

But she couldn’t possibly be so ugly that it was unbearable to look at, could she?

That being said, she shook the medicine recipe in her hand. It seemed fun, and while she wasn’t sure if it would provide the expected fragrance, she had a bit of anticipation about whitening her skin.

Who wouldn’t want to be more beautiful? Of course, she was no exception. Both now and in the future, a beautiful child was always more likable and had more opportunities than others.

At least, it would be more pleasant to look at.

And she took another look at the list of medicinal herbs on her recipe.

This knock-off version of the Cold Fragrance Pills was not too difficult to make. Most of the herbs required were readily available and a few fresh ones could be found in the mountains.

There was a saying, “when you live on the mountains, you live off the mountains”. The hill behind Li Tang Village was truly a treasure-trove, growing all sorts of medicinal herbs. It all depended, however, on whether people recognized their value.

The next morning, she took a small bamboo basket and set off for the mountains by herself to collect herbs. Now, she could safely do so without any danger. From the age of six, when she first went into the mountains with Chen Zhong, she had spent almost every day there. At first, her father, Tang Zhinian, worried that his daughter would get lost. He was always absent-minded, almost wanting to confine his daughter to the home. But as time went on and Tang Yuxin grew tanner and more robust, Tang Zhinian became more at ease.

This dark-skinned daughter of his would not attract unwanted attention. People always wanted beautiful children, so his ordinary Yuxin, might not even be tempting to a wolf.

If Tang Yuxin knew that being dark-skinned conferred such great benefits, she might not want to be fair again.

She gathered several herbs on the mountain, strictly following the recipe. As for the other, more rare, medicines, Sun Zhong had some stockpiled. Perhaps because a few of these herbs were mentioned in the Chen family formulas, Chen Zhong paid extra attention to them. Although some herbs had been washed away in a flood, Chen Zhong had gathered quite a collection over the past two years.

Preparing this prescription was not particularly difficult.
