The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1132 - 1101
Chapter 1132: Chapter 1101
Grandma Ma cooked while pondering.
Should she teach Xu Weiwei the secret technique?
Once taught, Xu Weiwei would become her successor, and would be embroiled in complex disputes.
Not to mention the enemies Xu Weiwei had in the Mainland (China), if those oldies in Thailand got wind of it, they would likely bring disaster upon her.
What should she do?
At dinner, Xu Weiwei kept serving Grandma Ma, saying, "Grandma Ma, eat some more, stay healthy."
Oh, Grandma Ma sighed.
Her body had already been severely damaged, and it was a miracle she had lived this long; she didn’t ask for much more.
"Grandma Ma, if you don’t teach me those secret techniques, you’re trying to protect me, wanting me to live like an ordinary girl, to marry and have children," Xu Weiwei spoke. "But my father was persecuted, and the enemy’s family is powerful. Even if I don’t seek revenge, they will find out about my existence sooner or later. There’s an old saying in Huaxia Country, ’If the roots are not removed, the weeds will grow back with the spring breeze.’ By then, they will kill me too. As for my mother, as you know, she’s a woman who lives for love and has no ability to protect herself. Even though I’m young and have some little tricks, I can’t fend off the retaliation from those people. Grandma, for the safety of my mother and me, please teach me those secret techniques."
Grandma Ma lifted her head and looked at Xu Weiwei, her eyes filled with affection.
Yes, they couldn’t fend off the revenge from their enemies at all.
"Alright," Grandma Ma sighed, "I hope you don’t regret it. Once you learn this secret technique, you can’t have children for the rest of your life, because even if you do have them, they will be disabled."
"Hmm," Xu Weiwei, young and not yet considering children, was only thinking about revenge, her curiosity piqued. "Grandma Ma, I won’t regret it."
Grandma Ma nodded and said, "If that’s the case, please have your mother come over. Only if both of you agree will I teach you. After all, your mother saved me and took me in. To accept you as my disciple and teach you the secret technique, I need her consent."
Xu Weiwei heard this and didn’t think much of it, nodding, "Okay, I’ll talk to my mom when I get back."
Mom Xu Canyun wasn’t decisive, but Xu Weiwei had ways to persuade her.
After the meal, Xu Weiwei hurried back home.
Seventh Uncle came over with a watermelon, puzzled they asked, "Oh, why did Weiwei leave?"
"Hehe, nothing’s wrong, she went back home because of some family matters. She’ll visit again when she’s free," Grandma Ma said. "By the way, I have a lot of food at home that I can’t finish, take some with you."
"Then I won’t be polite," Seventh Uncle laughed, and happily carried a big box of roast goose back home.
Xu Weiwei returned home to find her mother Xu Canyun chanting scriptures, praying for her deceased husband.
"Mom, Grandma Ma agreed to teach me the secret techniques," Xu Weiwei said. "But she mentioned that she wants you to visit. She will only teach me after you give your consent in person."
Xu Canyun heard this, torn between joy and concern.
She had assumed that Grandma Ma wouldn’t agree, so she hadn’t had much hope. But now that Grandma Ma had agreed, she felt a bit panicked inside, knowing well that those techniques were harmful.
A careless move could lead to eternal regret.
Should she let her daughter let go of her vengeance and lead a peaceful life, or seek revenge?
Xu Canyun was somewhat hesitant and indecisive.
Xu Weiwei saw her mother’s hesitation and said, "Mommy, if I were just a singer, a normal girl, what if our enemies found us? We wouldn’t have the ability to protect ourselves. Grandma Ma has many skills, and if I were to learn just a little, I could protect both myself and you, Mommy. When the time is right, I could even take revenge. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds? Mommy, don’t hesitate anymore."
Upon hearing this, Xu Canyun was filled with uncertainty, but then she recalled what her husband had written about the vast power of the Huo Family and that they needed to be strong enough before seeking vengeance.
Without learning some secret techniques, they might never have a chance in this lifetime.
"Okay, I agree," Xu Canyun said, "but Weiwei, after you’ve learned those secret techniques, you must not use them on ordinary people, only on our enemies, or else it would be against the heaven’s will."
Xu Weiwei knew her mother’s concerns and nodded, "Mommy, I’ve got it. I won’t use them on ordinary people."
Xu Weiwei’s intention was never to harm ordinary people anyway.
"Alright then, I’ll go with you to Grandma Ma’s place tomorrow," Xu Canyun said. Although she was a gentle woman, when it came to her husband’s affairs, she could not stay calm.
He was the man she loved in her heart and soul; she couldn’t let him rest with closed eyes.
Seeing that her mother agreed, Xu Weiwei was very happy; she could finally learn many secret techniques.
Right, there was no time to go to the company now, so Xu Weiwei asked her agent for a leave.
Although the agent was not pleased, Xu Weiwei was in her prime, and the agent couldn’t afford to offend her, so she had to let Xu Weiwei have her way.
Early the next day, Xu Weiwei followed her mother back to the countryside.
Grandma Ma was not as unkempt as usual but dressed in a gray robe with her hair neatly combed, sitting on a meditation cushion.
"Canyun, I want to ask you, are you okay with Weiwei learning Gu Arts?" Grandma Ma asked calmly. If Xu Canyun agreed, then she would teach Xu Weiwei.
Xu Canyun remembered the time when a thief broke into their home to steal, and Grandma Ma stepped in, safeguarding their finances.
Grandma Ma’s frail body seemed like it could be knocked over by a gust of wind, yet she managed to make those two thieves flee in terror.
This was when Xu Canyun realized that Grandma Ma was no ordinary person.
If she was that powerful, then it was fine for her daughter to learn from her.
"Grandma Ma, I agree for Weiwei to learn. After all, the two of us lack the ability to defend ourselves," Xu Canyun said, "I hope that by learning the secret techniques, we can protect ourselves, and if possible, seek our revenge."
"Very well," Grandma Ma nodded, "then let’s begin now. Weiwei, come here."
Xu Weiwei approached and knelt beside Grandma Ma, kowtowing to her.
"Thank you, Master," Xu Weiwei said excitedly, finally able to learn the wondrous secret techniques.
She would study hard to become her own master and perhaps even master others. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Grandma Ma nodded, removed a wooden bracelet from her wrist, and said, "Weiwei, this is something from our Sect. My master gave it to me back in the day, and now that you have become my disciple, you will inherit my legacy. This bracelet is for you; it will help you in your cultivation and make things easier."
Xu Weiwei reached out her hand, accepted the gift from her master with excitement, and said, "Thank you, Master!"
Xu Weiwei examined the bracelet carefully. It was simple and thick, made of unknown materials, but the patterns on it looked very mysterious and peculiar.
She carefully wore it on her wrist.
"Extend your right hand," Grandma Ma said, taking out a sharp little knife.
