"It's good that you're not in contact anymore; I feel he's not good enough for you. I just didn't expect you to be so old and still single."

Zhu Yali herself graduated from a nursing school and became a nurse, but now she has encountered such a huge change. She has lost her job, and her parents are worried about her and her child.

The implication was that she should just stay in the city and take good care of Xiaorui's studies, while the elderly couple would earn money to support them.

But how could Zhu Yali be at ease? What she wanted most right now was to find a job and have a stable income.

As they were talking, Zhu Yali suddenly received a WeChat message.

"Seriously, what I said came true! Our junior high class is thinking of having a reunion. Do you want to come? We have one every year. But I haven't been able to contact you before. Since you're here this year, why don't we go together? This weekend."

Zhu Yali showed her phone to Lin Yue. Actually, it wasn't that she hadn't been able to contact Lin Yue, but rather that very few people from their village went on to university. Lin Yue had been admitted to a prestigious university, and everyone assumed they wouldn't be in the same social circle anymore.

"Go ahead. You're home anyway."

Lin Yue figured she had nothing else to do, so she decided to contact her old classmates and friends; maybe they could help her in the future.

"Let's not talk about that. Here, take this. It's for removing scars. I took the wrong one last time, but it's really useful."

Lin Yue took out a glass bottle about the size of a thumb.

"For scar removal?"

Before, Zhu Yali might not have believed that there was any truly effective ointment, but her leg was healed with Lin Yue's bone-healing ointment, so when Lin Yue brought it out to remove the scar, she naturally had hope.

"Try it out, first apply it to this scar on your face."

Zhu Yali sat on the sofa, letting Lin Yue administer the medicine to her.

"Where did you get all these medicines? They must be very expensive. Last time you gave me medicine for my leg, my parents kept saying they wanted to send you money. We can't use your medicine for free. It's so effective, tell me how much it costs. I'll transfer it to you."

Although Zhu Yali's family doesn't have much money now, they still have to give Lin Yue the money they owe. There's no reason for them to take such a big advantage for no reason.

"What money do you need? We're like family. If something happened to me, you definitely wouldn't ignore it. Are you trying to make me fall out with you by saying this?"

After Lin Yue finished speaking, she applied the ointment to Zhu Yali's face and sat beside her, watching her.

"How does it feel?"

"It's itchy." Zhu Yali wanted to scratch it, but Lin Yue grabbed both her hands.

"Don't scratch it, it's being repaired. It'll be fine in a bit."

After about two minutes, Zhu Yali said she didn't feel anything anymore. Lin Yue then took a tissue and wiped off the ointment from her scar. Seeing the healed skin, Lin Yue happily gave Zhu Yali a thumbs-up.

"Okay, you can't tell at all now."

As he spoke, he pulled her to the dressing table and showed her her reflection in the mirror.

"Wow, it really works! That's amazing!"

Zhu Yali was also pleasantly surprised; what woman wouldn't care about her appearance? She repeatedly stroked the spot where the centipede scar had been, her fingers finding it smooth and new, without a trace.

"Yueyue, am I dreaming?"

She was even more overjoyed than when her leg was healed. She picked up Lin Yue and spun her around on the spot.

"Hey, where's your ladylike demeanor?"

"What lady? Yueyue, you're amazing! I thought you were just kidding me about being able to remove scars, but I didn't expect you to actually do it!" Zhu Yali put Lin Yue on the bed, pounced on her, and gave Lin Yue's face a good kiss.

"Yueyue, I love you to death. You're so wonderful. Not only did you heal my leg, but you also... you even fixed my disfigurement. From now on, I'm your dog. My life is yours."

Zhu Yali patted her chest, making a firm vow.

"Get away from me, you've got my face covered in spit. I'm a woman, stay away from me. And 'dog'... how can you say something like that?"

Lin Yue hadn't expected that Zhu Yali, the once meticulous school beauty, would look like this now. She was a little unaccustomed to it. Nevertheless, she tossed the bottle of scar removal cream to Zhu Yali.

"Take this and use it slowly when you get home. I remember you have more than a dozen other wounds of varying sizes on your body. This bottle should be enough."

"Thank you so much, thank you so much. I don't know how to repay you for something so wonderful, how about I repay you with my body?"

Zhu Yali cried in bed, clutching the bottle of ointment tightly in her hand.

"..."

Lin Yue didn't know what was being said on the phone, but she saw Zhu Yali burst into laughter after listening to it.

"What's wrong?"

"My uncle runs a mahjong parlor, and it's always smoky and noisy there all year round. But my cousin, his youngest son, got into police academy, and as soon as he took office, he drove his police car home and shut down his dad's mahjong parlor. It's become the talk of the village. My mom called me about it, and now my uncle has been released and is sitting at the door cursing his son."

"Is that so? Your cousin is really something else." Lin Yue was amused by what she heard.

"Whose fault is it? My aunt got lung cancer because she did this every day. My cousin told him not to do it for years, but he wouldn't listen. Now my aunt has to take care of him every day, cooking for him and pouring his tea. I think he deserves it."

After seeing Zhu Yali off, Lin Yue started farming. Although the livestock in her space had all died, they hadn't rotted or smelled bad, so they were still edible, since they were raised with spiritual herbs from her space. It was just that Lin Yue couldn't accept it psychologically.

She threw a pig's carcass into the backyard and chopped it into pieces. Then she dug a hole in the garden and buried the pieces of meat as fertilizer.

Then I started tidying up the vegetable garden. I turned the soil over completely. By the time I finished, it was already dark.

However, Lin Yue felt nothing at all, looking at the mountains behind her. When she was a child, her grandmother told her that there were wolves and wild boars deep in these mountains. Later, she also heard that the corn planted in the terraced fields on the mountain was ruined by wild boars every year, but she had never actually seen them herself.

I'll have to wait until I have some free time to go deep into the Qinling Mountains. I've heard it's quite mysterious.

After watching short dramas all night, she got up as soon as it was dawn. She started planting the seeds from her spatial storage into the backyard. Sixteen square plots were planted with cucumbers, tomatoes, scallions, chives, small pumpkins, leafy greens, peppers, and cabbage and radishes—it was completely full.

By the time I finished planting the vegetables, it was already lunchtime. After lunch, I immediately took out two bags of natural fertilizer from my storage space and sprinkled them in.

Water it up; the water pipes were installed in the backyard during the renovation, which is very convenient.

After returning home, Zhu Yali began applying the ointment that very evening. Although it was quite itchy, she was determined to become beautiful and prevent scarring. That night, while showering, she looked in the mirror and saw that all the marks on her body had disappeared.

She was so excited that she cried. It was wonderful; she hadn't dared to wear a short-sleeved shirt for the past six months.

The centipede-like scars on my arms and thighs were terrifying. Now they're completely healed.

When dropping off the child at school,

"Xiao Rui, you're here. Let's go together."

A little boy got out of a car, followed by a woman, presumably the boy's mother.

"Oh, it's Xiaorui's mom. She looks great today."
