After chatting with Cui Huihui for a while and wrapping up a lot of delicious food for her, she went home.
Kang Xiaoqiao could finally take a comfortable bath and rest.
When she woke up, the sun was about to set. Kang Xiaoqiao made some simple dishes and took out the medicinal powder that she bought from Doctor Hu.
Although the conditions here were simple and the things she wanted were not very complete, it was more important than nothing to save her face.
Kang Xiaoqiao studied biological engineering in her previous life. Not only did she get a doctorate in China, but she also received a doctorate from a famous university abroad. It could be said that she was an excellent student with two doctorates.
She had the right to be proud. However, she knew that no matter how powerful she was, if she did not have her father's protection, it would be extremely difficult for her to create a world. It would be even more impossible for her to live so recklessly.
Eh, what was the point of thinking about all this? It was all in the past. Kang Xiaoqiao wanted to start a new life. No matter how successful she was in her previous life, she would have to start from scratch in this life.
In her previous life, she used her own research to develop the top-notch skin-care godly device in the country. Many people were eager to get the agency rights. There were even many people who wanted to get the formula so that they could become rich.
However, Kang Xiaoqiao had ruthlessly grasped everything in her hands and obtained one patent after another. If one wanted to obtain the rights to the agency, they would have to go through the approval of this great aunt, and the approval criteria of this great aunt was very strict.
Some people wanted to take the shortcut, so they naturally came up with many moves. Kang Xiaoqiao disdained them.
But now, with her hands empty and without even the most basic equipment, it was really not easy for Kang Xiaoqiao to make a good skincare product.
There were no lights in the warehouse and bathroom. It was already dark, so Kang Xiaoqiao could only borrow Lu Yichen's room to make it.
For so many days, Kang Xiaoqiao had never entered his room. Her hand was on the door handle of his room, and she could not help but feel a little flustered.
The kiss from that day reappeared in front of her eyes. Then, half of Kang Xiaoqiao's body went numb. She really did not know what spell Lu Yichen had cast on her, or was that kiss too affectionate?
It made her fall deeply into it?
Impossible. How calm was this sister?
She shook her head and cleared out the scene. After that, she secretly cheered herself on. She had to quicken her pace of earning money and stand on her own feet quickly. Only then would she have the confidence to control her own life.
After pushing open the door, there was a bed across from her. It was clean and the quilt was neatly folded.
There was a clothes hanger on the left side of the door. Beside the clothes hanger was a table. There were a few books on the table. They were all military-related, and there were also some newspapers.
The room was not big, but it was neat and orderly. Behind the table was a small window, and one could see the sunset.
At this moment, the sunset was very beautiful. Half of the sky was red, and it was very magnificent. However, Kang Xiaoqiao felt lonely.
It was a completely foreign world, a strange person, and an unfamiliar environment. Everything depended on her own loneliness, but it also aroused her pride.
There was a time when she had nothing. She had no relatives, no friends to help her, and no good environment for her to survive. She had to rely on herself to fight for everything.
Her father did not appear in her life during those years. Perhaps, at that time, he was still young?
Thinking about how her father was also a pitiful person, just because of a woman's wishful thinking, his fate was completely changed. He could not be controlled by her, so he did not live a happy life.
A beautiful face could give her a lot of convenience, and naturally, it would also bring a lot of trouble. For example, her father, and she could never do so. That was a lesson learned from the past. After sorting out her thoughts, Kang Xiaoqiao took out all of her tools and medicinal powder.
In order to be able to make the things she wanted, she had not been idle for the past few days. The tools now could not be any simpler. She hoped that she could succeed.
She could only pray that way because she had never made it in such a simple environment.
Before coming to Lu Yichen's room, Kang Xiaoqiao had already made the most basic extraction of some of the medicinal herbs that she needed.
What she needed to do now was to make a more complicated extraction. This was more time-consuming. There were still many things that needed to be done to make a practical skin care cream. There was no place to buy it here, so she could only make it bit by bit.
Kang Xiaoqiao was a very persistent person towards fragrance, so the extraction of this essential oil took a lot of effort. Fortunately, she went out for a trip and gained a lot. There were plants and flowers that she needed on the mountain behind the family courtyard, so it was more convenient.
The remaining auxiliary ingredients were too easy compared to the essential oil.
Only the cream was more difficult. For example, the facial cleanser, the base moisturizer, and so on were all relatively simple.
Ten minutes passed, an hour passed, and three hours passed.
Kang Xiaoqiao shook her stiff neck slightly and slowly stretched her waist. That was all for today. The preliminary procedures had been completed, and the next step could only be continued after precipitation.
Not only were there no handy tools here, but there were also a lot of tonics that were not available. At the moment, she could only make the simplest one, but no matter what, it was definitely much better than the snow cream she was using now.
Moisturizing was the most important thing if she wanted to whiten her skin. Only with a solid foundation could she build a skyscraper.
Kang Xiaoqiao stood up slowly, then boiled some water and took a bath.
Before going to bed, she took out the powder that she had ground from Doctor Hu, cracked an egg white, and made a simple face mask.
The next day, she got up and looked in the mirror. The effect was indeed much better than the previous few days. Kang Xiaoqiao was very happy, and after making some snacks, she went out.
According to the agreement she made with San Kui yesterday, they would meet up at a big rock near the family courtyard. Sure enough, she saw that this little guy was already there from a distance. His brother, Er Kui, was also with him.
His brother was still very shy. When he saw Kang Xiaoqiao, his face turned red. However, San Kui's eyes were shining. When he saw Kang Xiaoqiao, he shouted, "Sister Kang, Sister Kang, here it is. I have brought the things you wanted."
Then, he looked at Kang Xiaoqiao's backpack. Kang Xiaoqiao pursed her lips and smiled. She walked over to take the kettle and opened it. Yes, she was quite satisfied. It was a full kettle. It looked like it weighed at least three to four kilograms.
Therefore, she happily gave the snacks to them and also returned the bucket she borrowed yesterday to them. She also gave them a new kettle. After the two of them took it, they ran away. Kang Xiaoqiao put the kettle into her bag and went into the mountain.
When she came back, she found Cui Huihui waiting for her at the door again.
After seeing her, she said with shining eyes, "Sister Kang, where did you go? Eh, why did you pick so many flowers?"
"Isn't this tree bark? And this grass..."
"Sister Kang, what's the use of picking these things?"
