Everyone focused their gaze again, carefully examining Su Qingyue’s face, and they all agreed.

Qian Zhang’s wife sneered, “She’s just a village girl after all, how white can she get? She’s just not dark anymore, only yellowish.”

Xiao Yuchuan thought of his wife’s skin, which was so fair and delicate under her clothes but hadn’t yet regained its whiteness on exposed parts. He was about to say something, but he felt that it was too private and didn’t want to say it in public, “Anyway, my wife is prettier than you!”

“Everyone with eyes knows that Su Qingyue is the ugliest. Just admit it, Chuan,”

Qian Zhang’s wife insisted on stepping on Su Qingyue, “Isn’t that right, guys?”

Among the young wives, Qian Zhang’s wife had pockmarks, acne, and freckles on her face, making her extremely ugly. Su Qingyue used to be dirty and sloppy all day long, making everyone feel that she was the ugliest. But now…

Su Qingyue was dressed in clean clothes, her skin was no longer dark, and although her face had some acne, she still looked more elegant than Qian Zhang’s wife.

But no one responded, for fear of Qian Zhang’s wife’s persistence.

Zhang Shun’s wife, who had just bought some goods from outside, touched the few newly grown pimples on her face, “Xiao Family’s wife, can the Five-step Snake powder really cure facial acne?”

Qingyue nodded, “Yes. With the acne on your face, buy a piece of Five-step Snake, dry and grind it into powder. Take a thumb-sized amount every day, and it will be better in a few days.”

“It’s too expensive at 150 cents per jin…” Zhang Shun’s wife hesitated, and Qian Zhang’s wife said, “Don’t believe her. If she really could do it, those pimples on her face would have been cured long ago, not dragging on until now.”

“Exactly…” The guys also felt it made sense.

Most of the villagers were poor, and even if the Five-step Snake powder really worked, they wouldn’t spend money on such expensive stuff.

Zhou Fuquan and his wife Wang Cuihua hurriedly came over.

“Chuan, I heard about Granny Sun coming to collect the debts…” Zhou Fuquan took a silver bag from his pocket and stuffed it into Xiao Yuchuan, who was sitting in the courtyard, “I’ve got one and a half taels of silver here, which my wife and I have saved up over the past few years. It’s all our savings. You take it first.

Xiao Yuchuan held the heavy money bag, his eyes were full of gratitude, “Thank you…” He didn’t want to borrow money, but he was really short of funds and couldn’t refuse. In fact, he was thinking about asking Fuquan for a loan, but Fuquan had already taken the initiative, saving him from even asking.

Qian Zhang’s wife mockingly said, “Zhou Fuquan, your family doesn’t have much money either. Lending out one and a half taels at once, aren’t you afraid they won’t pay it back? Look at the Xiao Family’s situation. Lending money to Chuan at this time is definitely throwing it away.”

Wang Cuihua angrily said, “Even if it’s lost, it’s our business, not yours!”

“Fine, I won’t bother with good intentions then. It’s like a dog biting its host! I get struck by lightning for my kindness!” Qian Zhang’s wife cursed and walked away.

“The Xiao family has sold all their belongings, including their food. They probably sold no more than a tael or so just now, which is still far from enough. They don’t even know what to eat for the next meal, and you’re still lending money. You really are a fool!” Qian Youfa pointed out the truth.

Another villager said, “Even if you lend them one and a half taels, the Xiao

Family can’t make up the money. They can only use their house as collateral. Even if the sun rises in the west and they make up the money, the three men of the Xiao family are all down.. How can one woman, Su Qingyue, support three men? Are you and your wife going to help support them too?”
