He Tiantian treated everyone around her with a grateful heart. However, reaching middle age, she discovered she had been living inside a full-bodied lie.
Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Grandma Ma cooked while pondering.
Should we teach Xu Weiwei the secret technique or not?
Once she teaches, Xu Weiwei will become her successor, and she will be drawn into all sorts of chaotic disputes.
Putting aside Xu Weiwei's enemies in mainland China, if those old fogies in Thailand found out, it would likely bring her utter destruction.
What should we do?
During the meal, Xu Weiwei kept putting food on Granny Ma's plate, saying, "Granny Ma, eat more, it's good for your health."
"Alas," sighed Granny Ma.
Her body has already suffered severe damage; it's a miracle she's still alive. We shouldn't ask for too much.
"Grandma Ma, you don't teach me those secret techniques because you want to protect me, to let me get married and have children like an ordinary girl," Xu Weiwei said. "But my father is being persecuted, and the enemy family is very powerful. Even if I don't seek revenge, they will find out about me sooner or later. There's an old Chinese saying, 'If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze.' They'll kill me then. My mother, as you know, is a woman who lives in love and has no ability to protect herself. Even if I'm young and have some tricks up my sleeve, I can't withstand their revenge. Grandma, for the safety of my mother and me, please teach me those secret techniques."
Grandma Ma raised her head and looked at Xu Weiwei with loving eyes.
Yes, the mother and daughter were no match for their enemy's revenge.
"Alright," Granny Ma sighed. "I hope you won't regret learning this secret technique, because you'll never be able to have children, and even if you do, they'll be disabled."
"Mmm." Xu Weiwei was young and hadn't thought about the child at all; she was only thinking about revenge and her stimulating curiosity. "Grandma Ma, I won't regret it."
Granny Ma nodded and said, "If that's the case, please ask your mother to come over. I will only teach you if both of you agree. After all, your mother saved me and took me in. I need her consent to take you as my apprentice and teach you secret techniques."
Xu Weiwei listened without taking it seriously and nodded, saying, "Yes, I'll tell my mom when I get back."
Xu Canyun, the mother, lacks her own opinions, but Xu Weiwei has a way of persuading her.
After finishing her meal, Xu Weiwei hurriedly went back home.
Uncle Qi came over to deliver watermelons and asked, puzzled, "Oh dear, why did Weiwei leave?"
"Hehe, it's nothing. I had to go back home because of something. I'll come again when I have time," Grandma Ma said. "By the way, I still have a lot of food at home that I can't finish. You can take some back with you."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony," Uncle Qi said with a smile, carrying a large box of roast goose, and happily went home.
When Xu Weiwei returned home, Xu Canyun was chanting sutras to pray for her deceased husband.
“Mom, Granny Ma has agreed to teach me those secret techniques,” Xu Weiwei said. “However, she said you have to come over too, and she will only teach me if you agree in person.”
Xu Canyun was both happy and worried after hearing this.
She hadn't held out much hope because she thought Granny Ma wouldn't agree, but now that Granny Ma had, she felt a little panicked, since those were all harmful things.
One wrong move and it could lead to eternal regret.
Should you let your daughter let go of her hatred and live a peaceful life, or seek revenge?
Xu Canyun hesitated for a moment.
Xu Weiwei noticed her mother's hesitation and said, "Mommy, if I'm just a singer, an ordinary girl, what if our enemies find us? We won't be able to protect ourselves. Granny Ma has many skills. I only need to learn a little to protect myself and you. When the time is right, I can take revenge. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds? Mommy, don't hesitate."
Xu Canyun was shocked and uncertain after hearing this. Finally, she thought about what her husband had said in the letter about the Huo family's power, which gave her and her daughter enough strength to take revenge.
If they didn't learn some secret techniques, they might never have had that opportunity in their lives.
“Okay, I agree,” Xu Canyun said. “But Weiwei, once you’ve learned those secret techniques, you can’t use them on ordinary people. You can only use them on our enemies, otherwise it would be against the natural order.”
Knowing her mother's worries, Xu Weiwei nodded and said, "Mommy, I've remembered. I won't harm ordinary people."
Xu Weiwei's original intention was not to target ordinary people.
“Alright, I’ll go with you to Granny Ma’s place tomorrow,” Xu Canyun said. Although she was a quiet woman, she couldn’t remain calm when it came to her husband’s affairs.
That was the man she loved to the core; she couldn't let him die with regrets.
Xu Weiwei was overjoyed to see that her mother had agreed; she was finally able to learn many secret techniques.
By the way, since she didn't have time to go to the company right now, Xu Weiwei asked her agent for leave.
Although her agent was very unhappy, Xu Weiwei was currently very popular, and her agent couldn't afford to offend her, so she could only let Xu Weiwei have her way.
The next morning, Xu Weiwei went back to the countryside with her mother.
Unlike her usual disheveled appearance, Granny Ma had changed into a gray robe and her hair was neatly combed as she sat on a prayer mat.
"Canyun, I want to ask you, do you agree to Weiwei learning Gu magic?" Granny Ma asked calmly. If Xu Canyun also agreed, she would teach Xu Weiwei.
Xu Canyun recalled how a thief broke into her house and stole things, and it was Granny Ma who intervened and saved the family's belongings.
Granny Ma's frail body was so thin that a gust of wind could almost blow her over, yet she still managed to make the two thieves flee in panic.
This is also why Xu Canyun realized that Granny Ma was not an ordinary person.
Since it's so amazing, let my daughter learn it.
"Grandma Ma, I agree that Weiwei should learn it. After all, my daughter and I are not capable of protecting ourselves," Xu Canyun said. "I hope that by learning the secret technique, we can protect ourselves, and if we have the opportunity, we can take revenge."
“Alright.” Granny Ma nodded. “Let’s begin now. Weiwei, come here.”
Xu Weiwei stepped forward, knelt beside Granny Ma, and kowtowed to her.
"Thank you, Master," Xu Weiwei said excitedly, finally able to learn the amazing secret technique.
She needs to study hard, become her own master, and perhaps even master others.
Granny Ma nodded, took off a wooden bracelet from her wrist, and said, "Weiwei, this is something from our sect. It was given to me by my master back then. Now that you have become my disciple, you will inherit my mantle. This bracelet is for you. It will help you achieve twice the results with half the effort in your cultivation."
Xu Weiwei reached out and accepted her master's reward, saying excitedly, "Thank you, Master!"
Xu Weiwei examined the bracelet closely. It was simple and heavy, and she couldn't guess what material it was made of. However, the pattern on it looked very mysterious and strange.
She carefully put it on her wrist.
“Extend your right hand,” Granny Ma said, taking out a sharp little knife.
