The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

After Madam Lin left, the Prime Minister's wife went to Prime Minister Feng's bedroom.

"Sir, I heard you stole Madam Lin's skincare cream, the kind that comes in a wine glass."

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Feng realized that the green paste in the wine cup was not food, but rather a skincare product.

Good heavens, that stuff shouldn't have any side effects, right?

Prime Minister Feng felt a churning in his stomach and a slight urge to vomit.

After the lady leaves, we must immediately send someone to fetch the family physician.

He is the prime minister of a great nation, a pillar of the country; he cannot be poisoned by skincare cream.

The Prime Minister's wife looked around suspiciously, circling the bedroom, but found no trace of the skin cream.

"Sir, where is the skincare cream you received from Lord Lin?"

Prime Minister Feng would never admit that he had eaten the skincare cream.

It's ridiculous that the prime minister of such a great nation would be so ignorant as to eat skincare creams. He'd be a laughingstock.

"Madam, I... I don't remember."

The Prime Minister's wife knew her husband best; she knew he had an excellent memory and would never forget.

Moreover, the master only stutters when he is lying.

Since the master says he doesn't remember, he must be feeling guilty.

Why isn't that amazing and effective skincare cream given to her, the legitimate wife? Could it be that the master is having an affair behind her back?

"Tell me quickly, are you having an affair?"

Prime Minister Feng quickly denied it, "No, absolutely not."

The Prime Minister's wife came from the Sikong family, one of the five great clans. When she got really angry, she was quite fierce, grabbing Prime Minister Feng's hair and pulling it.

You got such a good thing, but you didn't even let your mother try it out.

How dare they sabotage my path to becoming more beautiful? That's absolutely despicable!

Manager Chen wanted to explain that the Prime Minister had eaten it, but seeing the Prime Minister desperately trying to signal him, he could only keep the matter a secret.

Several clumps of Prime Minister Feng's hair were pulled out, and his face was scratched several times.

But to save face, he stubbornly refused to admit that he had ingested the skincare cream.

After the Prime Minister's wife left, Prime Minister Feng pitifully propped himself up and urged Steward Chen, "Quickly, go and fetch the imperial physician."

After carefully examining Prime Minister Feng's body, the imperial physician said earnestly, "Prime Minister, you are in excellent health. I can see that the abscess at the site of your broken leg has completely healed. The speed of healing is quite astonishing."

Prime Minister Feng accidentally fell out of bed a couple of days ago, so his broken leg is inflamed and swollen.

The doctor said that if the condition continued to worsen, the leg would need to be amputated.

How could someone as powerful as the prime minister of a great nation, a pillar of the country, have his leg amputated?

If he really becomes disabled, his official career will be over.

Therefore, Prime Minister Feng has been searching for renowned doctors in recent days.

Unexpectedly, the abscess was cured. Prime Minister Feng breathed a long sigh of relief and was finally at ease.

He remembered that when he was eating the skin care cream that day, half of it accidentally fell onto his broken leg. So, could it be that the skin care cream had the effect of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, and promoting skin regeneration?

The next day, Madam Lin and Madam Sun went to the Plum Garden again. This time, there was another person present, namely the Prime Minister's wife.

The three of them brought generous gifts, which they exchanged for a small jar of face mask cream, which they carefully carried out of the plum garden.

The small porcelain jar that Madam Lin presented was decorated with a nearly transparent flower pattern, which was very beautiful: "This little jar is exquisite, much prettier than the little wine cup from last time."

The Prime Minister's wife had seen the painting of Crystal Orchid at Gu's Tea House and knew that the flowers on the small white porcelain jar were Crystal Orchids.

"The painting on this little porcelain jar is of crystal cymbidium orchids. You'd better hide it well, or it might be taken away if the men in your family see it."

Upon hearing this, Madam Lin and Madam Sun quickly took out their purses, wrapped the small porcelain jar up, and held it in their hands.

Good heavens, they really have it tough. All they wanted was to become more beautiful, but they never expected to face dangers everywhere, with everyone wanting to steal their precious treasure.

Mrs. Lin was filled with anxiety on her way home, fearing that she would be robbed again.

When she got off the carriage outside the Lin family mansion, she first opened the curtain a crack to carefully observe the situation outside before daring to get off the carriage with the purse containing the small porcelain jar in her hand.

After much effort, Madam Lin finally managed to get the skincare cream to work.

Sitting by the candlelight, looking at my reflection in the mirror, I felt incredibly content.

I've finally started using the skincare cream, and the scar on my chin from an accidental scrape last year has faded a lot, and my skin is much whiter and smoother.

This skincare cream is absolutely amazing.

The maids and servants in the room all praised the wonder of the skin cream.

Even Lord Lin noticed the change in his wife during dinner.

"Is it because you've been in a good mood lately, Madam? You seem to have become even more beautiful."

Madam Lin gently stroked her cheek with her right hand, a charming and graceful gesture.

Although Lord Lin had recently acquired a beautiful concubine, he still stayed in Madam Lin's room that night.

The next morning, Lord Lin discovered an empty small porcelain jar by his bedside and found that the flowers on it were actually crystal cymbidiums.

Good heavens! He had visited Gu's shop many times, always wanting to own a painting of crystal orchids, and finally his wish came true.

Lord Lin carefully tucked the small porcelain jar into his pocket and went to the Ministry of Revenue.

He spent the whole day showing off in the government office.

Finally, after leaving the yamen, he reluctantly presented the treasure to Prime Minister Feng.

Because he was Prime Minister Feng's most loyal disciple.

"Your Excellency, I find the crystal orchid on this small porcelain jar to be very beautiful, and I have come to present it to you."

Prime Minister Feng also liked the pretty little porcelain jar very much.

They sleep together, cuddling each other like precious treasures.

The person in charge of monitoring the area outside the plum garden arrived very late today. Prime Minister Feng had already gone to bed when he arrived, and he was covered in injuries.

"Your Excellency, I was chased by Prince Gong's men all day, covering half the capital, which is why I am late."

"Your Excellency, the Prime Minister's wife also brought a gift to the Plum Garden today. She brought out a small white porcelain jar from the Plum Garden, and the pattern on the jar is a beautiful and elegant orchid."

As Prime Minister Feng listened to his subordinates' description of the small jar, he felt an intense sense of familiarity.

He was stunned for a long time before he remembered to show the small porcelain jar that Lord Lin had given him to his subordinates.

"Is this it?"

"Your Excellency, this is indeed the kind of jar."

Prime Minister Feng was so angry he wanted to smash the little porcelain jar.

The small white porcelain jar was raised and lowered in Prime Minister Feng's hands, sometimes in high spirits, sometimes in low spirits, as if he wanted to throw it away but couldn't bear to.

Looking at the almost transparent orchids, I really can't bear to throw away such a beautiful flower.

Not only were they reluctant to throw it away, but they also had a crazy urge to have more.

Steward Chen watched from the side, feeling anxious for the Prime Minister. He thought, "If you're going to throw it away, just do it already. There's no need to torture yourself like this."

Prime Minister Feng beckoned Steward Chen to come closer to speak.

"Steward Chen, you are the highest-ranking steward in my household, managing all the servants. I have something to tell you..."

Manager Chen thought it was something serious, but he never expected that the Prime Minister had gone mad and actually ordered the maids and servants in his wife's room to find a way to steal the empty porcelain jar.
