It was already dark when Sanniu and Yuntao returned home.

Sanniu: "Mom, today is a day worth being happy about. Not only is my sister-in-law getting a baby, but our porcelain vase is also finished. The finished product is so stunning. I just can't let it go."

Yun Tao also said happily: "Yes, Sanniu, your mother actually likes it too. If it is a large porcelain vase, we can take it back and put it at home as a decoration, but it is too small, what a pity."

"Next time I go there, I'll ask Er Gouzi to make a big one and put it on the table."

Sanniu: "That's a good idea, mother. I want to have some porcelain vase ornaments in my room, too."

Yun Tao: "Okay, there are rooms for all three of you brothers, don't worry. Your mother won't be partial to one brother over another, so don't worry about that."

A month has passed in the county magistrate's mansion.

Third sister, I didn't expect that you have become so beautiful after only a month of not seeing each other. What did you use? How come your face is so fair and healthy?

Lihua looked at the Second Lady who was speaking in front of her, feeling very proud in her heart, but she tried not to show it on her face as she said, "Second sister, I am just using it as usual. Maybe the Master loves me more recently and comes to my place more often. I am in a happier mood, so I look better recently and look a lot fairer."

"Second sister, if you want to have a better complexion, I will teach you a good way. That is to stay at home for 24 hours a day and not see the sun. Your skin will definitely be fair and your complexion will be much better."

Lihua smiled after saying these words. When the Second Madam heard what Lihua said, she knew that it was not true and she was trying to discredit her. She was so angry that she left in anger.

Lihua looked at the figure going away, and said with a spit: "What's so great about it? Now it's just that it's out of favor. You still want to ask me for the formula, you wish, even if I know it, I won't tell you."

"The master can only belong to me, and even the eldest lady cannot compete with me."

At night, when Lihua was about to go to bed in her room, she saw the county magistrate walk into her room.

Magistrate Wu: "Lihua, what time is it now? Are you going to sleep?"

Lihua said coquettishly, "Master, you don't come to see me, what else can I do if I don't sleep?"

Magistrate Wu: "Be good, you made your second sister angry during the day, what happened? You sisters must get along well, then I will feel at ease."

Lihua said in her heart: "Be at ease, what are you at ease for? You are not going to die. What are you at ease for? I have a son, what do I have to be afraid of? I am not even afraid of you dying."

On the surface, Lihua said with a sad face, "Second sister asked me why I looked so pale recently, and said that I looked much better. I said that I seldom go out every day, and I don't know how I offended Second sister, Master. I really didn't say anything, and I didn't do anything wrong. If you want to blame someone, then blame me."

Magistrate Wu felt very distressed when he saw Lihua's charming appearance. "How could I blame you? I just asked a question casually. Look at you, you are narrow-minded again, aren't you?"

Lihua leaned in Magistrate Wu's arms and said, "Don't I care about you? Don't I love you?"

Magistrate Wu looked at Lihua and said, "But, to be honest, you really do look much fairer now than before. If you don't believe me, look in the mirror, or go out tomorrow and show yourself in front of your wife whom you haven't seen for a long time. Your skin feels so tender now, as smooth as a peeled egg, and it even reflects light under the light. It makes me feel itchy."

"Lihua, what have you been using recently? This product is really good. The effect is really good. You can give some gifts to those ladies you are on good terms with when you go out with them. Relationships still need to be maintained."

Lihua lowered her head and remained silent. Who wants to tell me how to become beautiful? If everyone is so white, then what is the point of me being white?

Lihua suddenly came up with an idea.

"Master, I have to thank you for this product. It was given to me by your eldest sister Yuntao. I was embarrassed to accept it before, but she insisted on giving it to me, so I accepted it with reluctance."

"You know what? I've only used it for a month, and now my complexion looks much better than before. It's all thanks to you. I was thinking, with such a great product, should we invest in it and get involved?"

"This way, you will have a safe place to spend your money. And she must have bought it at a high price, so the profit will be very high."

When County Magistrate Wu heard this, he didn't know what to say.

Lihua continued, "Master, people die for money and birds die for food. We should plan for ourselves."

Magistrate Wu: "But it's such a lucrative business, why would they want us to get involved? You want to have a piece of the pie. Don't they know what's going on? Besides, such expensive things are not very popular in our county. At least they have to go to the provincial capital, the lowest standard is to go to the provincial capital. Have you ever thought about what the advantage is for them to choose us?"

"Isn't this simple? Aren't you her elder brother? Isn't she your adopted sister? Besides, you have another identity, that is, you are the county magistrate, the county magistrate. After all, you are the local parent official, and I don't know what your official position is. I don't believe that Yun Tao will not buy into your identity as a county magistrate."

"Besides, when they were transporting goods to the prefectural city, something went wrong, and it was you who helped them deal with it. Even now, they are transporting goods with some yamen runners. I don't believe that she would be unwilling if you brought it up. If she is unwilling, then withdraw the yamen runners. If anything goes wrong in the future, you can just ignore it or not pay attention to it."

"Master, do you think my method is good?"

After saying this, Lihua looked at her master lovingly.

After hearing these words, Magistrate Wu still felt a little uncomfortable. "Aren't you asking me to use my power to oppress others? I don't like to do this. I like people to do things willingly, just like you did back then."

Lihua: "Master, these are two different things. Look at you. You have been the county magistrate for many years. I have only followed you, and it seems that you have never moved. You just don't have money. Look at what money we have in our house. Now, we don't need money to do anything. You know those dignitaries. They don't need money to bribe, master."

Lihua said with a look of disappointment.

Magistrate Wu looked at Lihua, feeling very hesitant. Although what Lihua said was true, he really couldn't say it out loud.

Magistrate Wu: "Let me think about this matter carefully."
