Chapter 106 - 108 Cold Fragrance Pills



In both her lifetimes, she had never been pretty. It was a shame to think about her youthful beauty as a child. Everyone said she would grow up to be beautiful, but in the end, her looks fell short.

This seemed to verify her belief that a child who was attractive would become ugly when they grew up.

“Here, this is for you,” Chen Zhong took out an old piece of paper. It seemed ancient, as if it had been preserved for some years now.

She took a look and was surprised to find a medical prescription. The peculiar part was the ingredients – frost collected on the day of first frost, snow from the Winter Solstice, rainwater from Rainwater day, and snow from the day of Major Snowfall.

This reminded her of an ingredient in Dream of the Red Mansion, namely the Cold Fragrance Pills consumed by Xue Baochai. The ingredients seemed rather similar and yet the requirements for this prescription were more demanding.

But what if there was no snow in winter, no rain on Rainwater day, no snow on Major Snowfall day, or no frost on the day of first frost?

She frowned slightly.

No matter the purpose of this prescription, it seemed impossible to fulfill.

They could predict many things, but they couldn’t predict the weather.

“Don’t worry,” Chen Zhong knew what Tang Yuxin was thinking, “I have all these ingredients. I’ve stored them for five years.”

“Oh…” Tang Yuxin simply responded with an ‘oh’.

Whether it be frost, rain, or snow, he had gathered them all over a span of five years.

“Grandpa, are you sure they are still good after five years? They didn’t go bad, did they?”

“What nonsense are you talking?” Chen Zhong glared at Tang Yuxin. “I buried them underground. How could they go bad? Have you ever seen alcohol go bad? It only gets better with time.”

But that was alcohol, not water.

Tang Yuxin definitely wouldn’t drink water that had been stored for five years. Either mold would have grown in it, or some other organism.

A woman can be unattractive or poor, but she absolutely cannot be unhygienic. That’s her bottom line. She would never compromise on this, even if it meant drinking water stored for five years.

Chen Zhong tapped Tang Yuxin’s head, considering her lack of appreciation. However, upon seeing Tang Yuxin’s rough, coal-black face, his heart ached. Maybe it was because the contrast was too stark—there was no hurt without comparison.

Who would’ve imagined that such a soft, cute, and popular girl in the village would one day turn into this shriveled, black-faced girl?

This stark contrast was almost unbearable, except for Tang Yuxin who had already accepted the harsh reality of becoming less attractive with age.

Chen Zhong gently touched Tang Yuxin’s hair. Probably the only redeeming parts about her were her hair and eyes, which were crystal clear, deep and tranquil, as light as fog. But even her disposition now seemed cold, not at all like a child.

“According to this prescription, go find the corresponding herbs. I have stored the precious medicinal ingredients for five years and they are all for you. The ingredients could make almost ten years’ worth of pills. Have you ever read Dream of the Red Mansion?”

Tang Yuxin nodded. She had read it several times, watched it on TV in her previous life and read the book in this life.

“Heh…” Chen Zhong smiled again, “This medicine is similar to the Cold Fragrance Pills mentioned in the book. It’s a secret recipe of our Chen Family. Girls start taking it before they turn ten. After consuming it for ten years, it can turn your dark complexion into a fair one. Moreover, it makes your bones smell sweet. After your death, your bones will still hold that sweetness.”

This kind of body scent originated from the bones. Regardless of weather changes or passing years, it would always remain within the bones.
