Chapter 53 He Finally Drinks Osmanthus Tea
Tian Chunlian's heart was filled with gratitude towards Lu Yuan.
She was also happy for Xu Qiuyue and thought it was great that Xu Qiuyue could marry such a good man.
Xu Qiuyue and Tian Chunlian chatted for a long time, and finally, Xu Qiuyue personally sent Tian Chunlian away.
In this life, she saw that Tian Chunlian finally had everything she had longed for in her previous life, and Xu Qiuyue thought it was pretty good.
Xu Qiuyue wants to change the fate of her best friend from her previous life.
It's not just Tian Chunlian.
There are others.
To start over again just for revenge would be a bit too boring.
And now, she has finally accumulated some strength.
Xu Qiuyue thought of her cousin who married far away.
In fact, this cousin was also very nice to Xu Qiuyue when she was a child.
Unfortunately, by the time Xu Qiuyue was able to help her, she had already been beaten to death by her husband.
My cousin's family is just like Xu Qiuyue's, both parents are extremely patriarchal. Unfortunately, there are three boys in their family.
When my cousin got married, her parents asked for a sky-high dowry.
It doesn't matter the man's age, appearance or character at all.
The man my cousin married had a bad temper and did nothing all day long. He just liked to gamble.
Although the family is relatively well-off, the man not only likes gambling but also drinking, and he likes to beat his wife when he is drunk.
My cousin's first child was a daughter, so there was an extra reason to beat her.
Xu Qiuyue secretly used her innate Qi to cut off the man's meridians. Ordinary doctors could not see it at all and just thought it was paralysis caused by a stroke.
In this way, the other person cannot move his limbs and can only lie in bed every day.
I can't hit anyone, and I can't talk either.
My cousin has no son.
After her husband died, she would be driven away, and when she returned to her parents' home, she would be sold to another man.
Fortunately, my cousin’s husband comes from a well-off family.
Moreover, Xu Qiuyue's method would only make him lie in bed for three to five years.
After three to five years, as the true qi dissipates little by little, the disease will gradually get better.
If at that time, her cousin's husband understood her cousin's sincerity and reformed, Xu Qiuyue would not have made things difficult for him.
If the other party is a stubborn person, then Xu Qiuyue can't be blamed for being cruel and ruthless.
Xu Qiuyue thought that as long as she worked hard to learn the knowledge in medical books, she would master a skill.
I won’t be afraid even if I have a falling out with the Lu family in the future.
When the time comes, I can change into men's clothes, find a place, open a drugstore, and live a stable life.
Although Lingquan water can detoxify most of the poisons in the world and nourish the body, it cannot restore qi and blood. You also cannot completely stop eating grains and only drink water. Doing so in the long run is still bad for your body.
You still have to eat normally.
Xu Qiuyue planted a large number of medicinal herbs in her small space. The growth rate of these herbs in the space would be faster than that in the outside world.
There is only a small piece of land, which Xu Qiuyue uses to grow vegetables and condiments.
The further you advance in your practice, the more powerful medicine you will need to improve your true Qi.
Nowadays, ordinary medicinal herbs are of little help to Xu Qiuyue.
Xu Qiuyue went to the black market specifically and bought a sword as thin as a cicada's wing and a box of silver needles.
The silver needle can be taken out at any time without arousing suspicion.
The same goes for the long sword. Since it is very thin, it can be explained as hiding it on the body.
Lu Yuan has already given Xu Qiuyue one thousand taels of gold.
Xu Qiuyue exchanged the gold for some gold leaves, some small silver coins and copper coins, and put them all in the space.
Although a lot of money has been spent.
But there is still a lot of silver and money left.
The Xu family came to the Lu Mansion to look for Xu Qiuyue several times, but were driven away by the doorman every time.
Lu Yuan issued a strict order not to allow the Xu family to come, which made Lu's father and mother very unhappy.
After all, the Xu family is Xu Qiuyue’s maternal family.
This is a bit too embarrassing.
Rich families don’t do things this way; they want to save face.
But the doorman is Lu Yuan's man.
Besides, Lu Yuan has done a lot of immoral things, so this is not the worst.
Xu Qiuyue was very grateful to Lu Yuan in her heart, and Lu Yuan was not polite either. He asked Xu Qiuyue for a bowl of the osmanthus tea she had been longing for.
He finally drank osmanthus tea.
When Lu Yuan drank, he was reluctant to drink too fast.
Savor each bite slowly.
He immediately told Xu Qiuyue that as long as she could have one more drink, he would condescend to be Xu Qiuyue's lackey and deal with Xu's father and mother.
Xu Qiuyue refused.
Xu Qiuyue knew very well that Xu Chunhua’s current situation was not very good.
Princess Nanyang is Xuan Jiuqing's biological sister and is quite favored. In her previous life, she despised Xu Qiuyue's identity and made things difficult for Xu Qiuyue.
In this life, Xu Qiuyue is not yet a princess and has a humble status. Xu Qiuyue believes that she will definitely make things difficult for Xu Chunhua.
In the eyes of the royal family.
Civilians are not human beings, they are just ants.
The two cannot be compared.
However, Xu Chunhua was brought to the capital by the prince's men.
In Princess Nanyang's eyes, this was what the prince deliberately used to humiliate Xuan Jiuqing.
Xuan Jiuqing moved into the Lu Mansion and did not bring Xu Chunhua with him. It is conceivable how much Xuan Jiuqing disliked Xu Chunhua deep in his heart.
A concubine is a slave.
The master can beat the child if he wants to, or scold him if he wants to.
Life and death are not in our control.
This was also the reason why Xu Qiuyue would rather break up with Xuan Jiuqing than become a concubine in her previous life.
Xuan Jiuqing is a person who cares a lot about his reputation and works hard to build his good reputation, but that doesn't mean he is a good person.
No matter how much Xuan Jiuqing dislikes Xu Chunhua, he will never do anything to Xu Chunhua.
At this time, Xuan Jiuqing's sister, Princess Nanyang, would take action.
Princess Nanyang was extremely worried about her future because her aunt, who had taken care of her since she was a child, married the wrong man and froze to death in her room in winter.
That princess is the current emperor's sister, but they are not his biological sister.
This is also the reason why her husband's family dared to torture the princess. Even the servants in the mansion dared to bully the princess.
I heard that when he died, his body was in a very miserable state.
Although the emperor ordered the execution of the prince consort who bullied the princess.
However, this incident left a deep psychological shadow on Princess Nanyang.
From that time on, she began to plan how to help Xuan Jiuqing obtain the throne. She only trusted her brother, who was born to the same mother.
Princess Nanyang was a character, but she was extremely cruel and ruthless.
In the past, Xu Qiuyue often wondered why they were siblings but had such different personalities.
Later, Xu Qiuyue understood.
In fact, Xuan Jiuqing and Xuan Yuzhu have the same personality.
It’s just that Xuan Yuzhu doesn’t pretend. She just wants to be an arrogant and domineering Princess Nanyang.
And Xuan Jiuqing is just good at disguise.
This Princess Nanyang roamed among the boudoirs of the powerful ladies in the capital, and consciously tried to win over the daughters of the powerful new rich.
As a woman, and a princess at that, most of the rich girls are willing to be friends with her.
At this time, she would mention her brother in front of those daughters from wealthy families.
