Tang Yucheng’s sister-in-law helped her onto the bed before carrying the infant in her arms. “Your daughter is so fair-skinned. She’s going to be gorgeous when she grows up.”
Tang Yucheng scooped Mu Wansheng some rice and asked, “How’s Auntie’s health?”
“It’s the same. Well, she’s been suffering from the same illness for years. She can’t be treated. We can only let her condition drag on. It’s pretty torturous for her, but there’s nothing we can do about it. Brother, have you named her yet?”
“Yes, her name is Mianmian.”
“Sounds great. Did Sis-in-law come up with that name?”
“Of course.”
“I thought so too. Brother, where does Sis-in-law’s family live?” the sister-in-law asked curiously.
“Your sis-in-law…”
Mu Wansheng said, “I don’t have a family.”
“Sis-in-law, tell us, how did you meet Brother? He refuses to tell us. What do you like about Brother?”
“We met by chance… Your brother is a very nice man. He doesn’t mind that I’m blind. Life is safe with him too,” she said softly.
“That’s true. Both Brother and my husband are very reliable. Their parents passed away a long time ago, and no one sent them for matchmaking sessions. Sis-in-law, you may have lost your vision but you still have ears and hands. Some people may be blind, but they can still see with their heart. Meanwhile, some may be able to see with their eyes, but they’re as good as blind.”
Mu Wansheng could tell that she was a genuine person.
She smiled and said, “You have a point, Sis-in-law. I may be blind, but I can still work and carry out chores.”
Everyone gathered together for a meal, after which Tang Kangcheng and his wife left.
Mu Wansheng and Tang Yucheng began the next phase of life as the parents of Tang Mianmian.
Mu Wansheng would usually stay home to look after Tang Mianmian while Tang Yucheng goes out to work with the other male villagers. He opted for jobs nearby so that it would be easier for him to look after them.
Although he wasn’t making big bucks, it was enough for them to make ends meet.
Tang Yucheng had also been secretly finding out more about viable treatment options for the removal of scars.
He wanted to let Mu Wansheng have the courage to go out without having to hide her face.
He then heard from a villager that there was a certain type of algae in the lake that could remove scars. However, the algae was not easily obtained.
During his free time, he would dive into the river to look for the algae.
After searching for a long time, his efforts finally paid off and he found the algae. He then let Mu Wansheng try it, only to discover that it really worked.
However, she felt a stinging pain the moment she applied it onto her face, as if she was being slit by a knife.
After several applications, Mu Wansheng began to develop rashes on her face and her flesh started to fester as well. Tang Yucheng hurriedly brought her to see a doctor. Her wounds only began to heal after being put on medication for a period of time.
Hence, their attempt to alter her appearance fizzled out.
Mu Wansheng had forgotten who she was after living in the countryside for a long time.
She had even forgotten her own name.
No one called her Mu Wansheng anymore.
