Ye Shuying felt that, as a fellow farmer, Mrs. Li had gone through hardships to reach a sweeter life; how could her skin be so white?
If one said that Mrs. Li's family was now wealthy and she no longer worked outside, then it was understandable that her skin was a little whiter, but she often went to the estate to inspect things. The rural sun was harsh, and even now in winter, the sun could darken someone's skin.
Ye Shuying usually wrapped her head with cloth and wore a straw hat every day, yet she was the kind of person who tanned immediately upon being exposed to the sun, and her face had even developed some sun spots.
In the past two years, she had grown a little fearful of aging too soon and worried that her husband, now that he had money, would despise her, so she was willing to spend money to buy rouge for skincare.
One night, during an intimate moment with her husband, he mentioned turning off the lights, and she shyly agreed.
