Ball Ball Cultivation
Chapter 215 Seeking Justice
Within ten years, he had achieved some success and was selected as a royal guard. Later, General Xue died on the battlefield. In gratitude to his mentor, Duke Ying rushed to the battlefield to fight the barbarians for many years. After making many outstanding achievements, he was awarded the title of Duke...
As a royal guard, he protected the emperor who was still a prince. He was seriously injured and temporarily blinded by a kind-hearted woman. They fell in love with each other and prayed to heaven and earth and promised to spend their lives together in the presence of the woman's father and brother. Although the Duke of Ying recovered from his injuries, his eyes were still not restored, so he had to return to Beijing for treatment. He happened to find out that his wife was pregnant, so he left a jade pendant as a token of love and returned to Beijing alone to seek treatment.
When he returned to his wife's residence after regaining his sight, it was empty. While he was looking for her, a pregnant woman came with a jade pendant, accompanied by her old father. The pregnant woman, Mrs. Tian, explained the details of their relationship, and with the jade pendant as evidence, they got a marriage certificate and held a wedding banquet to entertain the guests.
Eighteen years later, a young man who looked 80% like the British Duke came here to look for his father...The following is consistent with what Qiuqiu and the others knew. Anyway, the vicious woman Tian usurped the marriage of her own cousin.
He concealed the fact that he was pregnant with a bastard and pretended to be the son of Duke Ying for eighteen years. He almost killed the real Duke Zhang Yongen, poisoned Duke Ying, and executed all the members of the Tian family involved in the case and the adulterer Luo Zhuo. Now Zhang Yongen is the new Duke.
His biological mother, Tian, was a distant cousin of the former wife of the Duke, Tian. The courtyard where he lived after fleeing was naturally the Tian family's, so Tian knew that it was quite easy for the Duke and his "wife" to get along with each other.
In reality, the Tian family not only drove away the real wife of the Duke, but also confiscated the jade pendant and impersonated her. In this way, they had been using someone else's name for eighteen years. Fortunately, the emperor was wise and brave, and not only found out the truth of the year, but also found out the real cause of the Duke's death, and gave justice to the hero.
The British public's business ended here. The four people returned home after completing the purchase. Qiuqiu planted various seeds given by his neighbors in the space, some of which were one-year or two-year seeds, and they all matured.
The seeds of crops were saved and then planted again. The best ones were selected, and one acre of land was used to plant each crop. The good varieties were constantly optimized. Some medicinal herbs and fruit trees grew fast, and they took up very little space anyway. There were also small puppets provided by Qing Xu to take care of these, and they would collect seeds as soon as they were ripe.
With the sound of firecrackers, the New Year of the secular world has arrived. The Xu family has no relatives here, and there is no custom of New Year's greetings. Instead, the family chats and reads at home as usual, eating delicious snacks, which is quite pleasant. They see people coming and going to pay New Year's greetings outside.
In the past, small families who ate coarse grains had no shortage of meat and vegetables. They would first pay New Year's greetings to their elders in the morning, then visit relatives within their own clan to pay New Year's greetings, and would not visit families with other surnames until after noon.
From noon to afternoon, Qiuqiu dealt with more than 30 waves of children who came to pay New Year's greetings. She gave each child a handful of snacks and two cents of New Year's money. She saw other neighbors doing the same thing, but she didn't expect that her action would attract all the children around. Just two auspicious words and a New Year's greeting could get candy, melon seeds, peanuts and two cents, which was a blessing from heaven.
This blessing-giving activity didn't end until after dark, when the shop closed. During this time, Qiuqiu's spiritual sense overheard the gossipy old lady Wang talking to others: "Mrs. Xu is such a jerk about living. She actually gave snacks and lucky money to children she had no contact with. She spent at least five taels of silver in just one afternoon. If she didn't have two sons, she would definitely be divorced and sent home..."
It turns out that although the neighbors also give children New Year's money, a few cents, and some even give one or two taels of silver, but those are just gifts between two families, and basically both sides are equal. No one gives unilaterally like Qiuqiu. One tael of silver can be enough for the basic expenses of a family of four for a month, but they gave away half a year's living expenses in just one afternoon. It's a real spendthrift!
Qiuqiu: After the Lantern Festival, our family will leave. We have more coins than we can spend, so I want to spread them out for fun! Money is money, so be it.
In the few days after the Spring Festival, there were often guests who had been entertained at the banquet, or they were just visiting for free. In the past, only the women from the surrounding area came, but recently some male hosts of decent status often came to visit, and they kept trying to figure out Qingheng's situation and wanted to know whether his family would leave. Seeing that Qiuqiu, who was recuperating, had recovered, Qingheng's answer was rather vague, and he would definitely leave.
Family matters were even more vague. As the supreme elder of the Qinglong clan, he was considered the ceiling of combat power in the entire cultivation world. When he talked to some mortals in the mortal world, even if it was for his wife's recovery, he would unconsciously adopt an arrogant and contemptuous attitude.
Besides, even though he was wearing a rough linen coat, he couldn't hide his noble air. He had wanted to make friends with them before but had no way to do so. Now that they had eaten together, they were considered acquaintances. They all came to visit humbly, disturbing the happy time of the family of four. Qingheng had a sour look on his face the whole time.
On Qiuqiu's side were still the familiar elder sisters and aunts, plus the weak Bai Shanshan who always wanted to get close to Qingheng. Even Qiuqiu, who wanted to experience the world, felt annoyed. Finally, it was Qingwu who suggested that they announce to the public that the mother was going back to her parents' home to visit relatives, but in fact she was going to visit the capital and take a secular carriage.
The next morning, the Xu family closed their doors and departed the courtyard in a magnificent carriage. When acquaintances asked about their whereabouts, they replied that they were visiting their Yue family for the New Year. Seeing the tall gift boxes in the carriage, Qiuqiu received even more envious and jealous looks. She felt wronged, after all, because they were filled with snacks for the two children. The clothes she had prepared at the beginning had been stored in her storage ring.
This small carriage was made by Qing Xu. Even the horse pulling the carriage is a puppet. This is a low-level magical tool that can move forward comfortably when equipped with spiritual stones. Qiuqiu also followed Qing Xu to learn how to make it.
In the past, she only made forging materials when refining weapons, which was just the preparation work before refining. She also learned some knowledge of refining weapons in the family. Because she was a girl, she had no interest in it, and the family did not have any strict requirements in this regard. Besides, the materials for refining weapons were pitifully few, and there was no material for her to practice.
After arriving in the world of cultivation, there was no inheritance of refining equipment. Although he had the convenience of space, he was forced by life to learn how to make pills and draw talismans. Because he obtained his own magic weapon and skills, he needed to repay the cause and effect, and he also studied the formation diligently. Naturally, the subject of refining equipment was marginalized.
Now that she has the opportunity to study, she naturally won't let it go.
Qing Xu contracted the Yin and Yang polar fires, and the weapon refining inheritance he received was very advanced. Puppetry itself is a relatively difficult branch of weapon refining. However, puppet making is like a skill engraved in Qing Xu's bones. The material restrictions are extremely low, and he only needs to experiment once or twice to refine the weapon he wants.
