Chapter 138: Chapter 139: Nan Meng’s wife_1
Since the medicine was readily available, Nan Feng did not need to go up the mountain to collect herbs, but focused on processing them at home.
She started by simmering osmanthus flowers into a juice, and then let it cool down.
Skincare products generally have a fragrance, so these osmanthus flowers were used for scenting.
Nan Quanyou detected the aroma and walked over, "Fengfeng, are you making osmanthus cake?"
"No, I am making skincare products."
"Skincare products?"
"For women," Nan Feng was concentrating on her work, so she didn’t explain too much to Nan Quanyou, who then brought over a small stool to sit and watch.
Next, she boiled beeswax, and once all the beeswax had melted, she poured in almond oil, and then added the six-ingredient whitening formula and the previously simmered osmanthus.
Beeswax also has a whitening effect, and almond oil can help maintain moisture retention on the face.
After a moment’s thought, she added a few aloe vera plants, which she grew in her backyard. Even though she had been taking Antidote in the past two months, she still habitually used aloe vera for facial masks, and aloe vera itself had acne-prevention properties.
Seeing that the pot of mixture was getting thicker, Nan Feng turned off the heat and let it cool gradually.
The whole kitchen was filled with pleasant aroma, and as the dark yellow liquid in the pot gradually cooled down, it became a transparent paste, which was visually appealing, similar to the sleeping masks she used in her past life.
Nan Feng named this facial mask: Whitening Magic Mask.
Then, she took a jar and filled it to the brim, sealed it, planning to take a bit out daily for applying on her face.
As for the acne scars on her face, in addition to continuing to take Red Fruitlets, she also used medicines for acne marks, such as bamboo grass.
Interestingly, after persistently using it for several days, Nan Feng found that the acne scars on her face had lessened somewhat.
With this progress, her enthusiasm increased, so she went to the town again to borrow medical books from the shop owner and inadvertently discovered that mountain spring water could make the skin more moisturized. Therefore, when making the next jar of facial mask, she specially collected spring water from deep in the mountains.
Additionally, she developed a facial cleansing paste made by boiling cucumber and winter melon, combined with aloe vera and soapberries for washing her face.
Thinking about how many skincare products she had used in her previous life contained milk, she thought, when she had time, she must find out where to buy milk.
No matter how expensive, she would buy it.
...
In the hustle and bustle, two-thirds of the Spring Festival had passed quickly, and it was the tenth day of the lunar month in the blink of an eye.
That morning, Nan Feng was at home reading medical books when she heard someone outside the house yell, "Brother Quanyou, are you there?"
The voice was very loud, a bit rough, and had a bit of flattery as well.
Nan Feng and Nan Quanyou came out together to see a woman in her forties leading a child around ten years old, both dressed exquisitely, the fabrics were all fine, they were in line with the popular style in Clean Water Town, but these clothes looked somewhat awkward on this woman.
It took Nan Feng a moment to remember that this was Wang, Nan Meng’s wife.
...
In Wang’s hand, she was holding a bag that looked like it contained dried vegetables.
Seeing Nan Quanyou and Nan Feng standing still, Wang shouted, "Brother Quanyou, open the door, I brought my young brother here to pay respects for the holiday."
Nan Quanyou opened the door, "Happy New Year, sister-in-law."
As Wang stepped inside, she began to speak, "My husband told me that you are planning to join our clan. But you didn’t show up for the New Year’s Eve dinner and we thought you would come to the clan to celebrate the New Year on the first day, but you didn’t come. Everyone had been looking forward to it. So today my husband sent me to come and wish you a happy new year."
