"Mom...I remember. I will do as you say."

Dong's words were very heart-wrenching to hear, and Shu Niang immediately understood what it means to be good medicine that tastes bitter, but that which is true is offensive to the ears.

She felt pain in her heart, but she knew clearly that even if it hurt, she had to do as she was told. Because every word and sentence her mother said was derived from her own hard struggle over the years.

Shu Niang silently regretted in her heart.

I regret that I had even said with a hint of luck that I wanted to pass on the "Everlasting Secret" to my father.

That must have hurt your mother's heart, right?

She raised her head to look at Mr. Dong and said in a loud voice: "Mother, I'm sorry."

"Silly boy, what else can I say to apologize to my mother?" Mrs. Dong knew that Shu Niang had truly and thoroughly understood. She felt relieved and finally felt relieved with a smile on her face.

When taking a medicinal bath, I was worried that the other person would not be able to persist. The mother and daughter were in the same room just to encourage each other.

But when they actually started taking the medicinal bath, they both found themselves in pain all over their bodies, and their skin seemed to be cracked. There were hundreds of insects and ants crawling in the wounds...

The feeling was too painful. If they hadn't been able to give up, the consequences would have been even more miserable. The thought of having to suffer this kind of pain over and over again was too disturbing. Both of them probably wanted to give up right away.

Fortunately, the two of them remembered the painful, numb and itchy feeling that Zhao Guoer had reminded them, no matter how uncomfortable it was, they should calm down and practice the "Evergreen Jue" as soon as possible to resist it.

The two of them didn't dare to think too much about anything else, and they couldn't care about anything else. Once they started to enter the training state, most of the uncomfortable feeling disappeared immediately, and the rest just needed a little patience.

After practicing for a long time, Dong and Shuniang woke up and found that the originally light brown medicinal soup in the bathtub had turned dark.

Before they could be surprised, the two of them discovered that their raised arms were covered with thick dirt. When they looked at each other, it was not just their hands, but their faces as well, as if they were covered with a thick layer of mud.

Dong: "..."

Shu Niang: "..."

Fortunately, hot water had been prepared for a long time. With the help of the maid, the two of them changed the water three times before cleaning and putting on new clothes.

Then, both of them found that the other's skin was much whiter and more delicate, and looked fragile. Especially Dong's was more obvious, and he seemed to be much younger.

Not only that, they also found that they were different. There was a contradictory feeling of being lighter, but also feeling that their whole body was full of strength.

"My Lady, I feel that most of my illnesses have been cured."

Surprised, Mrs. Dong said to Shuniang: "This medicinal bath is said to be painful, but in fact it will be a little uncomfortable at the beginning. Then I started practicing, and the uncomfortable feeling gradually disappeared. It is not painful at all.

It’s much better than I thought.”

"Yes, mother, I originally thought that the most serious thing would be to suffer three times. I would just grit my teeth and get through it. But I didn't expect that it was not the case at all. The suffering period would be short, and I would get over it before gritting my teeth.

Already."

The lady also laughed, having completely forgotten the initial discomfort of the medicinal bath and exhaled a big breath: "When it hurt before, I was worried that my grandmother would not be able to bear it if she had to endure it for a month. Now it seems that I

That worry is unnecessary."

"I don't know what it will be like when I go out for a bath tomorrow? Will the more I go out, I will look a few years younger? This is not possible. I will have to cover it up like you in the future."

Knowing that she was getting younger from the words of Shu Niang, Aunt Gao and her confidant, Mrs. Dong looked at the mirror over and over again, unable to bear to move her eyes away.

Her eyes were full of smiles and her face was full of smiles: "I didn't expect Guoer to be wrong sometimes. She also said that her appearance would not change after taking a medicinal bath. I will show her tomorrow and scare her."

"Mother, I think Sister Guo'er is right. How old are you? It originally looked like you were older than you. You should have looked younger than you do now."

Without this "Everlasting Secret", Shuniang would naturally not dare to tell Mr. Dong her true feelings.

She would just hide the pain in her heart silently.

But now, she is no longer afraid that telling the truth will hurt her mother's heart again.

While she was happy, she also silently sighed in her heart for her biological father.

Dad, does he know that he has completely lost his mother's heart?

If he knew, I don't know if he would care?

In other words, does he really know what he has lost?

For a moment, Shu Niang wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. She felt that her father was hateful and pathetic. The evil he had done himself did not deserve her sympathy and pity for him.

It was as if something had been let go, and the lady felt relieved.

Thinking of the experience of her godmother Tian Fuliang, she gritted her teeth and said to Ms. Dong with determination: "Mother, you are not old yet. Don't you want to think more about yourself after you live here?"

“There are too many things that worry me now, and I can’t afford to think about unnecessary things.”

Hearing the hidden meaning of Shu Niang's words, Mr. Dong didn't expect that Shu Niang would change so much in such a short period of time?

She raised her eyebrows, stretched out her hand to help Shu Niang tuck her hanging hair behind her ears, and said with a pessimistic look: "Wait a minute, when we get to the capital, I think your grandfather will also make a decision. You don't have to do that. It’s not your time to worry about it. Otherwise, if your mind is too complicated, you won’t be able to run the exercises as quickly as you can during practice, and you’ll really suffer while soaking in that medicinal bath.”

"Um."

Shu Niang nodded in an educated manner: "Don't worry. I suddenly thought about it, and then it was not worth it for you. I just felt that my godmother was like that. My sister said that she wanted her godmother to recruit a son-in-law and have a younger brother to make her father angry. It seems pretty good to me. Otherwise, you can’t be the only one to bear this anger, right?”

As she spoke, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Mrs. Dong's face, and asked cautiously: "Mother, is this idea of ​​mine a bit rebellious?"

Is it treacherous?

If it is true as the Taoist priest said, Shu Niang is destined to be extremely precious in the future. Then, what she thinks...

Mrs. Dong shook her head gently: "You can't be wrong about what you think. Everyone has a title in their hearts. You also saw my mother in the previous days. You can't buy a good and stable life by swallowing your anger. If it weren't for your grandfather Competing with several uncles makes them somewhat afraid. The three of us are now afraid that our bones will melt. How can we wait for such a big opportunity as "The Secret of Evergreen"? However, no matter what we do, we cannot let ourselves be left alone for a while. You are so happy that you do whatever you think of without any regard for the consequences. You must plan carefully, remember?"

"I remember."

Seeing Mr. Dong's face gradually becoming serious, Shuniang nodded quickly: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid."
