Xu Yi washed up and came out, feeling refreshed as he lay down on the bed, only to find that his eyelids felt like they weighed a thousand pounds, and he couldn't wait to fall asleep immediately. However, there was still one very important thing, and the scene that had happened in the hospital today still lingered in his mind.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Xu Yi silently recited his mantra in his mind. The true energy inside his dantian began to move slowly under the drive of his qigong, passing through the coccyx, middle courtyard, and then through the shenzhong acupoint. When the true energy passed through the zǐgōng acupoint, Xu Yi clearly felt that the small cluster of yin cold energy at the zǐgōng acupoint, about the size of a fingernail, had reacted.
It seems that there is some fear of the powerful true energy in the lower abdomen, and some unwillingness. The cold and gloomy true energy wandered around the Zong Palace point, but after a while, it gradually subsided again.
Xu Yixin let out a sigh of relief and immersed himself in his practice.
The next morning, Xu woke up slowly, sniffed his nose, and seemed to smell a strong meaty aroma. He remembered the Qihai Zhoutian from last night and immediately started using his inner vision technique. The true Qi in his Dantian was slowly rotating, and the cold Yin Qi in the Zong Palace acupoint was quietly dormant. Two completely different types of Qi, with a sense of separation like well water not invading river water.
"Knock, knock, knock", the sound of knocking on the door started.
"Son, get up! After dinner, we'll go shopping."
Xu Yi quickly got out of bed, put on his clothes and shouted loudly, "Mom, I'm up!"
"Son, hurry up, I've arranged for your aunt to come with us today. Last time you came home for just one day and left, your aunt hasn't even met you yet."
Yuan Fangfei's voice gradually faded away.
Although Yuan Fangfei's voice was a bit nagging, however, in Xu Yi's ears it sounded so happy, his mother's nagging he had never heard before.
"Son, come and have breakfast, your father has gone out early."
Yuan Fangfei put on the apron around her neck, "Right, your sister said that tomorrow your brother-in-law will be back from abroad, at that time we'll have a meal together as a family."
"Mom, what does sister's husband do?" Xu nodded slightly, no wonder she only saw her sister that day and didn't see her brother-in-law, it turned out he had gone abroad.
"Your brother-in-law is a department manager at the National Investment Corporation, often flying back and forth domestically and internationally. He's been married to your sister for two years now, but they still don't have any kids..."
Mentioning her daughter Xu Lin and son-in-law, Yuan Fangfei started to get a headache again.
After breakfast, the mother and son quickly left the house.
"Son, take a few days off and then go to a driving school to learn how to drive. In this capital city, not knowing how to drive is quite inconvenient when going out. The distance from your grandfather's house to our house is not close."
Yuan Fangfei muttered to herself, started the car, and the black Audi sped out of the neighborhood.
"Mom, it's all arranged, and after learning to drive, going out will be much more convenient." Xu nodded slightly, remembering what her father said last night, "Mom, is Dad going to leave Beijing?"
"It's hard to say for now, it should be almost there." Yuan Fangfei turned the steering wheel and looked ahead, "However, your grandfather also agreed that your father should go out and exercise a bit. Without work experience in a local place, it will be a great obstacle to his future progress."
"Mom, Dad has gone to the grassroots level for training, are you going with him?"
Xu Yi had no objection to his father going to the grassroots for training, but he himself was about to head south to Jiangnan, which meant that his mother would be left alone at home. Xu Yi knew in his heart that the project in Binjiang Community, Qi Xi County, must be secured, as it was the first step towards becoming a top-notch noble.
"I won't leave, as a woman I'm not interested in being an official, your grandfather's health isn't great and someone needs to take care of him, when your sister has children I'll also help with childcare, anyway, you all growing up happily is my greatest achievement."
Yuan Fangfei sighed and slightly furrowed her brow, "Son, don't tell me you're also leaving the capital."
"Mom, this time I went back to my hometown and met a friend. I'm planning to learn from him how to do business. After I learn how to drive, I'll take care of some things in Beijing and then go back to Jiangnan again."
Xu smiled and said, "My friends all say that our Xu family in the capital is a prominent and respected clan, but compared to other families, we seem too shabby. I haven't seen my grandfather for 20 years, and when he finally meets me, he only gives me 50,000 yuan, which isn't even enough to cover the cost of a single banquet for those spoiled rich kids."
"Son, this can't be blamed on your grandfather. He is a man of integrity and has high expectations for family members..." Yuan Fangfei let out a soft sigh, "In this way, our family's life is a bit more frugal compared to other families, but the benefits are also obvious. Otherwise, your father wouldn't have been promoted to deputy minister level in just three years, having worked in departments such as Labor, Finance, and National Development and Reform."
"In two more years, it will be time for a new term. At that time, who in the entire capital doesn't want to go down and get a bit of gold, come back and get promoted one grade, or directly take root at the grassroots level."
"Among so many people, how many can actually get to the grassroots level and grasp power? Now, however, there are several places that have extended an invitation to your father."
Xu smiled and said, "Mom, so from now on, don't worry about the household expenses, I'll take care of it."
Yuan Fangfei was taken aback, a hint of a smile on her face. "Right, right, from now on, matters of household expenses will be left to you, son. So, have you thought about how to make money? Which industry do you want to go into?"
"Mom, this is a trade secret."
"Hehe, but don't worry, I absolutely won't do anything illegal."
"Oh no, still discussing business secrets with your mom."
Yuan Fangfei was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and lightly stepped on the brake. "It's just ahead, in that shopping mall. There are several stores there with really nice clothes."
As soon as she finished speaking, suddenly Sen pointed with her hand, "Look, your aunt has arrived, let's get off the bus quickly."
Xu raised his head and looked over, only to see a middle-aged woman standing in front of a specialty store, dressed quite elegantly, with a beautiful pink small bag hanging from her wrist, looking very pretty.
"Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry, we're late because of a traffic jam on the road."
Yuan Fangfei walked up to the middle-aged beautiful woman, pushed Xu Yi's arm, "Son, this is your aunt, working in the Beijing Municipal Construction Committee, quickly call her Aunt."
"Aunt, hello."
Xu Yi slightly bowed to the middle-aged beautiful woman, smiling and saying, "Looking at Auntie's energetic appearance, it seems like you've had a lot of good fortune lately, probably made a lot of money."
"Xu Yi, you look very handsome, completely inheriting the best qualities of your mother and father." The middle-aged beautiful woman smiled charmingly, her beauty was suddenly revealed, and her flowers trembled. "They all said that you became a monk to study Taoism, could it be that you just saw from my facial features that I recently have good fortune with wealth?"
Yuan Fangfei frowned, although the other party was her sister-in-law, but she mentioned that her son had gone out to learn Taoism, which made her heart also somewhat unhappy. She stretched out her hand and grabbed Xu Yi's hand, pushing him into the store, "Son, I saw a suit in this store last time, it suits you quite well."
"Fang Fei, don't be in a hurry, I've also invited a few others."
Xu Yi knew what his mother was thinking, and he let out a sigh. In a low voice, he said, "Mom, don't be like this. Aunt will not be happy, besides, Aunt is speaking the truth. What's wrong with me becoming a monk? Today they can mock me, look down on me, but in the future, they'll have to kneel before my son and beg for their lives!"
Yuan Fangfei let out a silent sigh in her heart.
Xidan's shopping mall sells a lot of clothes, with high and low-end clothing available. Xu Yi is holding big and small bags of clothes in his hands, looking at his mother swiping her card with a sense of grandeur, feeling happy and content in his heart. He knows that his mother wants to show off in front of his aunt and others, thinking that she has been living a relatively frugal life lately.
Aunt Zhao Xiaoqian invited several middle-aged women who were not from ordinary families. One was the wife of a deputy minister of the Ministry of Commerce, one was the wife of a certain standing committee member of the Beijing Municipal Committee, and another was the wife of a deputy minister of the Ministry of Public Security.
"Alright, Xiaoqian, let's go over there and sit down for a cup of tea and take a break."
The wife of the Deputy Minister of Public Security has spoken, it can be seen that she is quite influential in Zhao Xiaoqian's circle, and others naturally follow suit.
Just then, when the lady was speaking, Xu Yi stared at her for a couple of seconds, slightly furrowing his brow. Yuan Fangfei pulled on Xu Yi's hand, this kind of staring at people is very impolite behavior, and don't even mention being discovered by others, or else he would be taken as a little pervert.
"Mom, there is a hint of dark cloud on Fang's forehead and the momentum is very urgent. It should be within these two days that a bloody disaster will occur..."
Xu said in a low voice.
No matter how low his voice was, after all on the main street, the sound was too small to be drowned out by the noise. It just so happened that the deputy minister's wife walked up to Yuan Fangfei at this time, and it was unclear whether she had heard or not.
Xu Yi only saw her frowning slightly.
A group of people, apart from selling the field, saw a coffee shop with very exquisite decorations not far away, and naturally walked towards the coffee shop.
The waiter brought coffee, but Xu Yiwanted a glass of pure water.
Then the ladies started talking about family matters, discussing who in their circle had married a daughter-in-law and who had married off a granddaughter. Xu listened very seriously, unintentionally comparing the facial features of several women, only to discover that her mother's face was quite ordinary among them.
Of course, compared to the wife of that deputy minister of public security, it's much better. That woman will definitely have a bloody disaster within two days.
"Mom, how are you here? Ah, Auntie is also here, and so is Aunt Li?"
A surprised voice rang out, and when Xu Yi looked up, he saw several girls walking over hand in hand, laughing, one of whom looked quite similar to his aunt.
"Yuting, I'm accompanying your aunt to buy clothes for your cousin."
Zhao Xiaoqian smiled and beckoned to the girl, "Come over and meet your cousin Xu Yi, he's one year older than you. When you were young, you used to play together, Xu Yi, this is your cousin Yuan Yuting."
The last sentence was said by Zhao Xiaoqian to Xu Yi.
"Ah, you're my cousin, my cousin who's a Taoist priest?"
Yuan Yuting's eyes widened, a look of surprise on her pretty face. The beautiful girl beside her thought for a moment, then stared with wide eyes, "Yuting, is he really your godbrother?"
Yuan Fangfei's face suddenly sank.
