Chapter 284 - 284 Second Miss Du's Face
284 Second Miss Du’s Face
Women wanted to be pretty, and so did Second Miss Du.
But since she was thirteen years old, red pimples gradually appeared on her face. At first, there were only one or two pimples on her forehead. Later, slowly, the red pimples filled her whole face. It became more and more serious. She had gone to many doctors, but they all failed to cure her face.
She had taken all kinds of medicine and tried many other methods. However, the red pimples on her face would not go.
Second Miss Du was so desperate that she finally accepted the reality.
She had been used to her face being filled with red pimples. She would not be angry or upset about it if she did not look at it.
Zhao Chuchu retorted, “Why can’t I? Come on. I will show you how I did that.”
Zhao Chuchu took the wooden box held by Chunxiang to the pavilion and asked them to come closer.
Second Miss Du originally wanted to leave, but Zhao Chuchu’s fantastic performance made her feel kind of hopeful. Now she did not want to go. She wanted to see if Zhao Chuchu was telling the truth.
Yuan Hui grabbed Second Miss Du’s hand and took her to the pavilion.
Zhao Chuchu opened the box, took out the things she had prepared, and removed the makeup from Chunxiang’s face in front of Second Miss Du. Then Second Miss Du saw the acne scars on Chunxiang’s face.
Second Miss Du suddenly widened her eyes.
The red pimples on her face would leave such scars, so Zhao Chuchu was not lying. She could really cure Second Miss Du’s face.
Second Miss Du’s heart started beating fast. She couldn’t help getting excited.
Donglan asked tremblingly, “Miss Lin, can you really cure Second Miss Du’s face?”
Zhao Chuchu said calmly, “Of course. Miss Yuan could testify for me. The Yuan clan is famous and powerful. They don’t have to lie to you, right? What’s more, I don’t want too many girls to lose confidence in themselves because of the pimples on their faces.”
Second Miss Du clenched her fists out of excitement and said, “Miss Lin, am I going to take some medicine or apply some cream? Can you really save my face?”
“Yes.” Zhao Chuchu nodded.
“Why do you want to help me? I have never met you before.”
“Because I want to make money.”
Zhao Chuchu told Second Miss Du her purpose openly.
“I need to get paid for the treatment of your face. It’s not free. If you believe me, you can give it a try. You can assume this has never happened if you don’t believe me.”
“It’s all for money, huh?”
Donglan frowned.
Zhao Chuchu smiled and said, “Girl, have you ever seen a doctor who will cure diseases for nothing? Even a miracle doctor needs money. Do I still have to be a beggar with such skills? Don’t you understand such a simple truth?”
Donglan was embarrassed at the moment.
If people had spent so much energy on learning medicine, and in the end, they still got nothing from that, then why did they even have to learn medicine?
“Miss Lin, Donglan is frank. She doesn’t mean any harm. Please don’t be angry with her. I’ll apologize to you for her.” Second Miss Du bent again to apologize.
“I will not get angry so easily. I just don’t think Donglan’s words are quite right. I can’t help but contradict her words. It’s alright.” Second Miss Du and her servant girl differed from Second Miss Du’s elder sister, so Zhao Chuchu would not get angry with them.
“I don’t know how much it would cost if Miss Lin could treat my face?” Second Miss Du looked at Chunxiang’s face and trusted Zhao Chuchu almost wholly.
However, she was still worried because Zhao Chuchu looked too young.
“Well, we can talk about it after I cure your face.” Zhao Chuchu was not worried about the money. The Du clan was not small. If Zhao Chuchu cured the face of Second Miss Du, the Du clan would give her a fair amount of money.
“If I fail to cure your face, I won’t take any money from you.”
“How long will it take?”
“About half a month, but the fading of the acne scars would be relatively slow, which may take about a month.”
“As long as you can cure Second Miss Du’s face, it won’t matter if the acne scars fade slowly. We are not in a hurry.”
Donglan hurriedly said that.
Zhao Chuchu asked Second Miss Du to extend her hand.
Second Miss Du did so.
After Zhao Chuchu checked Second Miss Du’s pulse, she found that Second Miss Du was not poisoned. She then asked Second Miss Du about her usual eating habits, which shocked Zhao Chuchu a little.
“In the future, you should change your eating habits. If you continue to eat like that, your face will be completely ruined. Even if your face gets better, the scars won’t completely fade!”
Second Miss Du turned pale with fear. She asked, “Miss Lin, is it really that serious?”
Zhao Chuchu said, “No. As long as you follow my instructions, your face will be as smooth as ever. You should feel lucky to meet me so early. If you keep eating like that for another two years, it will be hopeless to save your face.”
Zhao Chuchu then handed the previously prepared pills to Second Miss Du and said, “Take one pill in the morning, noon and evening, and then go to sleep before midnight. If conditions permit, get up and run slowly in your house every morning. Well, how big is your house?”
After Second Miss Du described how big her house was, Zhao Chuchu told Second Miss Du how many laps to run in the morning.
Zhao Chuchu then put on a serious face and said, “Keep this a habit so that your face will be better soon. Don’t eat the tonics you were eating unless you don’t want your face to get better!”
Second Miss Du held the bottle of pills and asked Zhao Chuchu, “Will the pimples on my face disappear in half a month?”
“Do as I say. Even if they don’t completely disappear, most of them will go. However, the most important thing is that you should stay away from your elder sister during this period.”
Zhao Chuchu said the last sentence in a voice only the two could hear.
Second Miss Du looked shocked.
Zhao Chuchu smiled instead.
Second Miss Du took a deep breath.
Zhao Chuchu helped put on makeup again, which covered the acne scars on her face.
Second Miss Du had never seen such a magic trick before. She got curious. “Miss Lin, why have I never seen the powder you used for Chunxiang?”
“I made it myself. It’s different from the powder in the shops outside. Yuan Hui also never sees this before.”
“Is this kind of powder for sell?”
“Of course.”
“Really? I want some.”
“You can’t use it for the time being. I’ll sell it to you when the pimples on your face have all gone. Otherwise, I’m afraid if you can’t wash it completely off, the pimples on your face will become worse.”
Second Miss Du subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch her face, but Zhao Chuchu hit her hands.
“Don’t always touch your face from now on. Even if you haven’t touched anything, your hands are dirty for your face with so many pimples. Do you understand?” Zhao Chuchu explained.
Second Miss Du blushed and said, “Oh, I don’t know this.”
“Now you know. Be careful from now on.”
“Okay.”
Second Miss Du finally smiled.
Not far away, Miss Du, who had been staring at Zhao Chuchu, had a bad feeling.
She thought for a moment and walked over.
As soon as Zhao Chuchu had put away her things, Miss Du reached the pavilion.
Miss Du first glanced at Second Miss Du and then greeted Zhao Chuchu. “Miss Lin, why are you hanging out with my sister?”
