Chapter 81 Life experience
The teahouse is doing very good business after its opening.
Mother Xu also sighed in her heart that all the bad friends that Father Xu had made over the years finally had some effect.
Although the first day was just a deposit, no money was paid.
But Xu's mother felt that the money would not be withheld forever.
Moreover, the teahouse business is so good, Xu's mother believes that the business will be even better in the future.
She also went to see Li Wenting's shop.
Although the shop is not small, it is very remote and is not as well located as the tea shop, and it is far away from the Xu family.
I guess Li Wenting didn't save enough money to buy a nice house.
Mother Xu has been very busy these days and has no time to think about Xu Qiuyue.
Maybe it was because the teahouse was too busy.
On the contrary, Xu's mother's health improved a lot.
The teahouse was doing good business, so they hired two servants to help out.
The shopkeeper's wife's repeated calls made Xu's mother very happy.
She thought, if only Xu Chunhua were still alive.
Xu Chunhua had always wanted to do business in Taohua Town.
If she had been braver and dared to buy a house in Taohua Town, perhaps Xu Chunhua would not have caught up with her in the capital, and Xuan Jiuqing would not have come to Taohua Town again, and Xu Chunhua might have been able to live longer.
When Xu's mother thought of Xu Chunhua, she felt extremely regretful and felt very upset.
Xu's mother could only pray silently in her heart every day that Xu Chunhua was still alive.
········
Lu Mansion.
The servants are packing their luggage and preparing to go to the capital.
The scientific expedition is about to begin.
Xu Qiuyue also planned to accompany Lu Yuan to Beijing at this time.
Xu Qiuyue knew very well about Xu's father's character.
Father Xu devoted himself to studying for the first half of his life, but he couldn't even pass the examination to become a scholar.
He praised himself as a scholar and considered himself noble.
But deep down, he is extremely inferior.
Now that Xu's father has started a business and bought a teahouse, he would invite all of his former friends to come over for a meal and a drink, and then start bragging about himself.
Father Xu was also an extremely generous man. If he only used the little money he had for food and drink every day, it would be enough to last him a lifetime.
But Xu's relatives knew that Xu's father had so much money.
He must be here to take advantage of the situation.
Xu Qiuyue knew very well that Xu's father had not spent all of the 3,000 taels of betrothal gift and still had a lot of it saved.
If I don’t do business, I really don’t know when I will be able to spend all the money.
It costs a lot of money to open a teahouse.
This Taohua Town is under the management of Lu's father, which is why the officials there are so upright.
Now Mr. Lu has been transferred and a new county magistrate has come.
Maybe they will come to take advantage of you by then.
The little belongings that Xu's father had could easily be consumed.
However, Xu Qiuyue thought about it carefully and decided to go find Xu's mother before leaving to find out about her life experience.
Her ability to deceive people's minds has now reached its peak.
In the middle of the night, Xu Qiuyue came to the courtyard of Xu Mansion.
Mother Xu slept alone in Xu Chunhua's room.
This was a strong request from Xu's mother. She would not allow Xu Chunhua's room to be occupied by Li Wenting's daughter.
So Li Wenting moved into Xu's mother's room.
Father Xu basically sleeps with Li Wenting nowadays.
He was already bored of doing business during the day and basically staying with Xu's mother.
So now I have an even more blatant reason not to join Xu's mother.
Xu's mother worked all day. Although she hated Li Wenting and her daughter and was worried about Xu Chunhua, she still slept soundly at night.
Xu Qiuyue pointed her index finger at Xu's mother's brow, and a stream of true energy flowed from Xu Qiuyue's fingertips into Xu's mother's brain.
"Is Xu Qiuyue your daughter?" "No! This ungrateful woman is not my daughter at all. I don't have such a daughter..."
When Xu's mother talked about Xu Qiuyue, she suddenly became excited.
Xu Qiuyue used her mind-confusing technique once again and interrupted Xu's mother's complaints.
"Have you guessed Xu Qiuyue's background?"
"Xu Qiuyue, this ungrateful bastard..."
Mother Xu's tone was somewhat proud, but when she said this, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Xu Qiuyue's face tensed, and before Xu's mother woke up, she immediately pressed her mother's acupoints, causing her to fall into a complete sleep.
Xu's mother fell under a very powerful mind-controlling spell, and the person who cast the spell had a higher level of cultivation than Xu Qiuyue.
So Xu Qiuyue only needed to ask about the key points.
The curse will backfire on Xu's mother.
No wonder Xu's mother never told Xu's father the truth.
Father Xu has always felt that both daughters are his own flesh and blood.
No, to be precise, Father Xu doesn’t care about either of his daughters.
If Xu's mother could give birth to a son, Xu's father would care about this son.
But unfortunately not.
However, if Xu's father knew the truth, he would definitely not be willing to raise a daughter of an outsider.
It was as if Xu's father had poisoned her in her previous life.
Xu Qiuyue took out a silver needle and gently pricked Xu's mother's fingertips.
A drop of blood fell into the clear water in the teacup.
Xu Qiuyue also pricked her fingertips.
Under the dim candlelight, Xu Qiuyue clearly saw the two drops of blood miraculously merging together.
In a moment, the cup in Xu Qiuyue's hand almost broke.
Xu Qiuyue blew out the candle.
She was stunned.
Xu Qiuyue sat there for a long time.
How could mothers in the world not plan something for their children?
Xu Qiuyue stretched out her hand and injected a stream of true energy into Xu's mother's body to eliminate her illness.
Xu's mother was extremely sad and angry, her emotions fluctuated greatly, and it caused great damage to her body.
Although it seems unlikely now, the problem had already been there for a long time, and it is holding on by itself.
Xu Qiuyue gave Xu's mother a cup of spiritual spring water to regulate her body.
Finally, Xu Qiuyue went to Xu's father's room again.
Father Xu slept deeply, but Li Wenting slept very lightly.
Li Wenting woke up as soon as Xu Qiuyue arrived.
"Shh!"
Xu Qiuyue signaled Li Wenting not to make any sound.
Xu Qiuyue pressed the acupoint that could cause Xu's father to fall asleep.
Then he lit the lamp.
"I will be leaving for the capital tomorrow, and I may never come back. I have always had questions in my mind that I want to find out. So today, I want to know the answer. Please help me get a bowl of clean water!"
Li Wenting put on her coat.
She said nothing, but went to the kitchen with the lantern.
Soon, Li Wenting brought over a bowl of water.
Li Wenting originally wanted to wait outside the door, although she was curious.
But I also understand that some secrets are better left unknown.
"Keep it to yourself! There are already many secrets between you and me that cannot be revealed to the public. I don't have to hide it from you. Just don't make it public. Just pretend you know nothing."
"Then I'll keep it. If you need any help from me, just tell me."
Xu Qiuyue pricked her father's fingertips, and then pricked her own fingertips.
