...
The busy farming season had passed, and the rice had dried, so An Jing and Xiao Changyi could finally catch their breath.
That evening, as soon as Xiao Changyi had finished his bath, he entered the inner chamber to see An Jing lying on the bed, not only with her eyes closed but also with her face covered in cucumber slices.
Xiao Changyi was slightly taken aback before he sat down beside the bed and then leaned over, beginning to eat the cucumber slices off An Jing's face, one by one.
When An Jing opened her eyes, she saw her husband eating the cucumber slices from her face, making her both laugh and cry, "What are you doing?"
While continuing to eat the cucumber slices from her face, Xiao Changyi softly answered, "Eating cucumber."
An Jing laughed even harder, "I know you're eating cucumber, but these aren't for eating, they're for facial care. Cucumbers are good for beauty and skincare."
