261 These People Will Not Be Okay

“Do you really mean that?”

“Sure. You are your own man, and it should be up to you to say whether you are doing well or not. If you feel bad about yourself, you might be telling yourself in your head that you’re not good. Then things will be going down the hill.”

“But why?”

“Because the implication will make you subconsciously associate everything bad with your miserable life, and you will feel increasingly bitter!”

!!

“Then is it true that if I feel good about myself, my life will turn out for the better?”

“Exactly.”

“Miss, no one has ever told me this. They all tell me to accept my fate. They said I am a servant and will stay being a servant for the rest of my life.”

“That’s not necessarily true. Even if you are a servant, you will get ahead one day. We will learn as we go because we’re humans. It is always good to have more skills. Maybe one day, it will come in handy.”

The maid was a little embarrassed. “I’m a pretty dull person. I can only do some menial work. I can’t learn anything!”

Zhao Chuchu saw that the young maid was not very old and was a completely different person from Hua Ying, so she smiled and said, “Then follow me these days. I will teach you a little bit of skill. Other than that, there is always a way to teach you a little about how to get better skin.”

“Really?”

“I never lie to people.”

The maid was so excited that she quickly knelt and kowtowed to Zhao Chuchu. “Thank you, Miss, thank you so much.”

“All right, get up! Don’t kneel at all times. Like you, I was also off to a bad start but fought my way out of it. Now I’m living a good life.”

“Okay, I will definitely keep in mind your words.” The maid stood up and worked even harder.

Zhao Chuchu saw this and smiled. Then she talked to the maid about what the herbs placed in front of them were used for and how to match them better.

The maid listened attentively and asked questions when she had doubts. She was quite a curious person.

She was also very smart. Even if Zhao Chuchu only said once, she could remember everything and even repeat them all.

Zhao Chuchu said with satisfaction, “You should be like this in the future. You should be more confident. It’s not a big problem to have pimples on your face. You’re not inferior to anyone.”

“But they look ugly.”

“It’s your mentality that matters. A confident girl is the most beautiful.”

“Confidence is the most important?”

The maid murmured the words.

Although she didn’t quite understand it yet, she felt that what Zhao Chuchu said was right!

Zhao Chuchu kept herself locked up in her room and even skipped dinner. It was the maid who brought her the food from the kitchen.

By midnight, she had finally finished making the medicine.

Zhao Chuchu took a box and put nine pills in it before giving it to the maid. “Take it after each meal. After three days, the red bumps on your face will gradually disappear, then I will give you another ointment to use. Your skin will return to perfection in less than half a month.”

The maid was exhilarated. “Thank you so much, Miss.”

“Well, why don’t you go rest now? You need to keep a balanced sleeping schedule for you to heal better.”

“But you haven’t bathed yet. I should bring you some hot water first.”

“Well, that’s okay. Be quick then.”

The maid put the box in her pocket and went out cheerfully.

Zhao Chuchu got up and stretched herself, exercising her muscles and bones.

She looked at the medicine still simmering on the stove and thought it should be ready by the time she came out of the shower.

Tomorrow, she’d purchase some other herbs, and in less than three days, she’d be able to get what she wanted.

Women were invariably the largest squanderers of all time. She thought she’d bear this in mind and do business to please women to make more money in the future.

No one hated money, and neither did Zhao Chuchu.

Even if there might be extra money, it was always helpful to have spare cash just in case it should be needed at some point.

For the next two days, Zhao Chuchu first went to treat Huan’er and then returned to the Yuan clan to treat Old Mrs. Yuan.

For three days in a row, Old Lady Yuan could keep a clear mind for longer.

And the pills and ointment that Zhao Chuchu had to make were also better.

The pimples on the young maid’s face began to improve visibly.

The other maids in Yuan Hui’s courtyard also noticed this.

“Chunxiang, what’s wrong with the pimples on your face? Is it something you ate?”

Chunxiang touched her face, nodded, and whispered, “Well, the young lady pitied me, so she gave me medicine to treat my face.”

“Not Huihui?”

“It’s the guest that returned with her.”

Yuan Hui had never told the servants what Zhao Chuchu’s last name was, so they all just addressed Zhao Chuchu as the young lady.

“What have you done to make her give you the privilege?”

“The young lady is a good person.”

“Oh, I think this little wench must have said something to her. Maybe it’s something bad about us in order to gain her sympathy.”

“Be honest. What exactly did you say?”

“That’s right. If the young lady blames us, then don’t blame us for being rude.”

It was obvious these maids had constantly been giving Chunxiang a hard time in the past.

Now when they saw Chunxiang’s face start to change for the better, they first started to feel a little scared, suspecting it was Chunxiang speaking ill of them.

They circled Chunxiang and demanded an explanation from Chunxiang.

Chunxiang helplessly looked at them, pleading. “I did not say anything. The young lady was just being nice. Please, I didn’t lie.”

“You little bitch. I think I’d have to teach you a lesson so you’ll know better.”

“An ugly monster like you deserves to look ugly for the rest of your life.”

“You just think that by healing your face, you will be noticed by your master and be promoted?”

“Please, everyone, I really didn’t. Please let me go.”

Chunxiang didn’t want to start an argument with them.

But these maids refused to let her go.

They could never deal with the fact that the original ugliest person now looked the best among them.

They also hoped to be fancied by the male master of Yuan clan. Even if it was as a concubine, it was still more decent than being an ordinary maid.

If they could give birth to a son or daughter, they would want nothing for the rest of their lives.

Chunxiang did not understand, so no matter how she explained, these people would not let her go.

They were blocking Chunxiang in the corner, thinking that people couldn’t see.

Unbeknownst to them, their conversation was heard word for word by Zhao Chuchu.

Just when they wanted to scratch Chunxiang’s face and disfigure her completely, Zhao Chuchu came down from the sky and threw all the maids out.

“Chunxiang, how are you feeling?” Zhao Chuchu turned back to look at Chunxiang.

Chunxiang was shivering, with tears hanging in her eyes that were about to fall off. She looked extremely pitiful and vulnerable.

“Miss, I’m fine.”

“Well, it’s good that you’re okay, but these people will not be okay.”

Zhao Chuchu smiled and looked at the six maids.

“Do I have to get your consent before I decide whose face I would like to treat?”
