Chapter 27: Chapter 26: Heat Rash
Assuming she was dreaming, Xu Niannian closed her eyes, planning to sleep.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she returned to that same dream.
This time, Xu Niannian was shocked.
She had just closed her eyes and hadn't fallen asleep yet, so how was it possible to immediately dream, let alone return to the previous dream?
Thinking of some novels she had read out of boredom in her previous life, Xu Niannian couldn't help but wonder, could it be that this was not a dream, but a space?
Having experienced something as unbelievable as transmigration, Xu Niannian quickly calmed down after her initial surprise at the emergence of a space.
To verify if it was real, Xu Niannian silently willed herself back, and then she returned to her own room.
After countless cycles, she proved this was indeed a space.
Xu Niannian had previously fallen into a stream, and her clothes were wet, so it was her body that entered the space, not just her consciousness.
Fearing she would wet the bed, she quickly got up and changed her clothes.
After changing, Xu Niannian lay on the bed, feeling somewhat uneasy.
Anyone who suddenly gained a space would feel uneasy.
Glancing over at the sleeping Xu Duoyu, Xu Niannian closed her eyes, thought of the space, and was immediately inside it.
This time, Xu Niannian examined the items in the space very carefully.
A stream, a spring, and land.
That was all there was.
Approaching the spring, she looked at the milky liquid in the stone basin and silently wondered, could this substance have bone cleansing and marrow washing capabilities like in the novels?
As if drawn by some attraction, Xu Niannian couldn't resist lowering her head, opening her mouth, and burying it into the white milky liquid of the spring, drinking it to the full in one breath.
There was only so much white milky liquid in the spring, and she forcefully drank half a basin full.
But just as she lifted her head, her body immediately tightened up, and she experienced the torturous pain of bones twisting and muscles contorting, so intense that the veins on Xu Niannian's face bulged visibly.
"Ah!"
Xu Niannian let out a cry of pain, rolling to the ground in agony.
The pain was probably worse than childbirth, as if every vein, muscle, and bone in her body was being remade.
It was so painful that Xu Niannian had trouble breathing, her breath as threadlike, feeling as if she might die in the next second.
After a wave of intense pain, Xu Niannian lay on the ground and rested for nearly an hour before she staggeringly got up.
As soon as she stood up, she felt something sticky all over her.
Looking at the back of her hand, it was covered in dark mud, and Xu Niannian's eyes rolled back, wondering if this was the legendary Bone Cleansing and Marrow Washing.
However, Xu Niannian was perplexed, why had she drunk so much?
It was as if there was an attraction inside it.
In fact, at the beginning, she didn't plan to drink that much.
She had only intended to try a little, but as soon as she took a sip, she couldn't help but drink her fill in one go.
Although she found it strange, Xu Niannian didn't have time to ponder. What was most important now was to wash off the mud on her body as soon as possible.
Fortunately, there was a stream nearby, and Xu Niannian couldn't wait to jump in and clean off all the mud.
After washing, Xu Niannian immediately felt relaxed all over.
The feeling of weakness in her body also vanished, and before she could reflect on this, Xu Niannian suddenly saw her own reflection in the stream.
Staring at the stunning beauty with bright eyes and white teeth in the water, Xu Niannian covered her face in disbelief.
What's going on?
Is this glowing white person her?
Xu Niannian was startled.
She had thought that drinking that stuff would cause some changes, but she never expected the changes to be so great.
When her original body had yellowish skin and was already stunningly beautiful, now her skin glowed white, and her lips were rosy pink, so beautiful it was almost indecent.
The change in her skin condition seemed to have completely transformed Xu Niannian.
The original Xu Niannian, despite having delicate features, was only considered a beauty in their local area because her skin wasn't in the best condition.
Now with her skin snow-white and as smooth as cream, Xu Niannian felt that to describe the woman in the stream as "nation-toppling beauty" would be an understatement.
Without time to rejoice, Xu Niannian covered her face and exclaimed, "Oh my god."
With such a drastic change, how was she going to explain it to others?
Would people think of her as a monster?
After leaving the space, Xu Niannian quickly found some long clothes and pants to wear, and hurriedly sewed a mask during the night.
After trying on the mask in front of the mirror, Xu Niannian shamefully discovered that even like this, she was still shockingly beautiful.
The next day, as soon as Xu Duoyu woke up, he saw his sister completely wrapped in a piece of coarse blue cloth, leaving only her eyes exposed.
"Sister, what happened to you?" Xu Duoyu rubbed his eyes in confusion, not understanding why Xu Niannian had wrapped her head like that.
"Sister has got prickly heat," Xu Niannian mumbled.
Having wrapped herself up like a zongzi, Xu Niannian then received concerned attention from everyone in the family.
First thing in the morning, Yang Cuihua saw her daughter wrapped up like a zongzi and anxiously pulled Xu Niannian aside, "Oh my Baby Nian, what's happened to you?"
Xu Dawei also looked at Xu Niannian with a worried face.
Usually his daughter cared greatly about her appearance, wishing the whole world knew what she looked like, so it was shocking to see her suddenly wrapping up her face; something must have happened.
Even Xu Zhiqiang and Xu Zhicheng looked at Xu Niannian with concern.
Feeling her family's care, Xu Niannian helplessly said, "I've got prickly heat."
