Chapter 3 — I Rely On Lying Still And Ignoring It, The Back Trach Fighting System Goes Crazy

This was probably the biggest bonus she had ever seen in her life. The work efficiency of the little dentist is unusually high. In less than half a day, Thanh Chi Vien's skin changed. The weeds were pulled out, not a single stem remained, and the room was also smoked with wormwood, emitting a cool, grassy scent. I was commanding the ladies to use lime water to sweep the wall when Khuong Du brought her close maid. She changed into a lotus pink silk dress, her figure was graceful, her steps graceful, and in her hand she was carrying an exquisite food box.

“Sister.” She gently called me, her eyes full of concern swept over me. "I heard that you were here, and I felt really guilty. Mother was also strange, how could she leave you in such a simple place? I'll tell mother right away when I get home and ask her to change you to a better place."

【Coming, coming! Classic lines of white lotus flowers! Host, quickly! Make fun of her! Ask her if she wants you to move out quickly to avoid being an eyesore!】 The system started to get excited again. I stepped down from the ladder, received the towel Tieu Dao gave me to wipe my hands, then smiled at her: "No need, I think this place is very good." The expression on Khuong Du's face immediately stiffened. I pointed to the empty land at the foot of the east wall: "This place is quiet, the land is also spacious, it can easily be developed into a small vegetable garden. Before in the countryside, I really liked growing some vegetables. Being self-sufficient, very good."

“Grow... vegetables?” The corner of Khuong Du's mouth twitched, obviously unable to understand my thoughts. The Marquis of the House actually grows vegetables in her yard? If it was spread out, wouldn't it make people laugh and lose their teeth?

"That's right." I nodded, as if I didn't see her strange expression. "Wait until spring, plant a few beds of green vegetables, build a melon trellis, and in the summer you'll have a place to cool off."

I opened the food box she brought, inside were a few exquisite snacks. I picked up a piece of cinnamon flower cake, took a bite, the sweetness was just right, not at all greasy.

“Thank you for my sister's breakfast, it tastes very delicious.” I sincerely praise you.

Khuong Du looked at me, his eyes like he was looking at a monster. Perhaps she originally intended to come here to brag, take a look at my deteriorating appearance, and then pretend to comfort me with a few words to show her honesty and generosity. But I completely did not follow her script. All the words he had prepared were stuck in his throat.

“Sister...if you like it, that's fine.” She smiled wryly, leading the maid and almost ran away.

Looking at her back, the system in my head let out a melancholy sigh: 【Host, do you know? This action of yours is called the highest level of 'using magic to defeat magic' in the backroom fighting world - leaving the white lotus with no place to put flowers.】 I didn't say anything, just silently planned my small vegetable garden. Everyone in this Marquis Palace seems to be wearing a mask and acting. I don't know whether they are tired or not, but just looking at them makes me feel tired. I just want to calm down and live my own little life. As long as no one comes to bother me, that is the greatest blessing for me. At night, I lay in my simple but clean and tidy bed, setting myself a small goal: first I have to save enough 10,000 VND. amount of silver. Waiting to save enough money, I will leave this bustling place, buy a small farm, grow crops, raise chickens, and live the peaceful and stable life I always wish for. As for that damn system, just let it play with itself. Thanh Chi Vien, under my care, gradually regained vitality. A few newly planted clusters of precious moonshine in the corner of the wall have sprouted new buds, and the vegetable beds are also sporadically covered in blue. I also set up a swing in the yard, and in my free time, I sit on it and swing and read books. Life passes peacefully but is also very full. However, this murky puddle called Marquis Palace was destined not to leave me in peace forever. That day was Lady Hau's birthday. In the palace, there was a big party for guests, lanterns were hung everywhere, it was extremely bustling. As the "newly accepted" bride, of course I was also "invited" to the lobby. As soon as I entered the banquet hall, countless eyes immediately turned towards me, some curious, some pitying, but most of all, they were contemptuous, waiting to see a good show.
