The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before Tang Youyou said goodbye and left for the Li Mansion.

At this time, Li was pacing in the room with tears in her eyes.

Suihe followed and walked around. “Oh… Madam, this is a good thing, why are you still crying?”

"Let's go to the ancestral hall. The ancestors of the Li family have appeared in spirit!"

Tang Youyou heard this as soon as she came in, and her eyebrows raised slightly: "Sister Tang, is Brother Li graduated from high school?"

Li held her hands and said, "There's news from Bosong that he's passed the imperial examination. Woo woo woo..."

"Sister, this is a good thing. Why are you still crying? Have you forgotten that you are a twin?"

She pulled the man to sit down and handed him a handkerchief.

"After so many years, I have finally reaped the rewards of my hard work. Youyou, you don't know that Bosong is very stubborn. If he had focused on the imperial examination, he would have passed long ago!"

"Sister, have you ever heard a word?"

"What?"

“There is no wasted journey in life, every step counts!

"Big brother has been a legal advisor for so many years, he's quite knowledgeable about politics. If he were to discuss state affairs, it wouldn't just be empty talk. This might even help him with his imperial examinations!"

Li sighed, "I hope it's as you say! Youyou, I'm a little nervous now, afraid he won't pass the exam!"

Tang Youyou chuckled: "Sister, don't worry about it. People say that Gongshi is half the emperor's disciple. With big brother's talent, you just wait for good news!"

Li burst into laughter and said coquettishly, "You know how to comfort people!"

Tang Youyou suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, big brother won. Then, are you going to the capital? What about Changyinju?"

Li covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "You don't know, not all officials will stay in the capital. Dongchen is currently facing internal and external troubles. Perhaps he will be sent to other places to start as a county magistrate!"

"Then sister will just wait for the news. Big brother has a lot of ambitions, and now he has a place to display them. This is great news!

Sister, I'll be the host today. Let's call Yue Niang and go to the newly opened Zui Xiang Lou for a drink. How about that?

"Oh...it's a rare treat from you, I'll definitely let you see the dangers of the world!"

"Haha...it's okay, I'm not short of money!"

The few of them didn't leave until it was getting dark.

Xue'er suddenly felt a little lost. "Mom, you finally have a friend with similar interests, but now they may have to move somewhere else. Sigh..."

"Silly child, all good things in life are permanent. Whether they are friends or family, they will all leave you one day, so let nature take its course!"

Xue'er was a little confused, "Mom, you are really open-minded!"

Tang Youyou knew that this child was thoughtful and delicate, "Xue'er, everyone has a past, and you are no exception. We must live in the present. Even though you are a divorced woman, so what?

You are only seventeen years old now, and you still have plenty of time. Don't get stuck in a dead end, and make friends without hesitation!"

Xue'er suddenly burst into tears, "Mom, can I really do this? But... I'm afraid they will look down on me!"

Tang Youyou sighed, "You silly child, everyone's family is in a mess, it's just that everyone keeps their doors closed.

If someone uses this matter to humiliate you, you should not have a close relationship with such a person!"

Seeing Xue'er still looking confused, she continued to persuade her earnestly, "Daughter, do you think people will laugh at me? I'm a widow!"

Xue'er whispered, "They don't dare to discuss it in public, they only discuss it in private."

"That's right. Even though I'm a lady now, I can't avoid being talked about by others. If you care about what others say, you will never be happy. Life is short, you have to learn to grow up!"

Xue'er's tears slowly slid down her cheeks. "Mom, I understand now. You're right. I can't stand being around people who laugh at me! I want to live for myself!"

Tang You You smiled with relief and wiped her tears. "That's right, the child is teachable. Come with me to your rich uncle tomorrow to pick out some ready-made clothes. You must have a complete outfit when you go out!"

"Thank you, mother!"

But he didn't know that something happened in Yueyoufang the next day.

There were people three layers inside and three layers outside the door.

"You're calling your boss out. Do you really think we're being taken advantage of? This is shoddy goods passed off as good ones. The evidence is irrefutable. Let's see how you can deny it."

"What's going on?" Tang Youyou patted a woman's shoulder and asked.

"Hey... I heard that Yueyoufang was selling inferior products as good ones. My backpack fell apart after only two days of use!"

Tang Youyou narrowed her eyes slightly, with a hint of smile on her lips.

He patted the woman again and said, "Big sister, please make way. I am the owner of Yueyoufang!"

The sound was so loud that the people in front made way.

"Ah...isn't this the person who was on the stage last time?"

"She didn't hide? She even dared to show up?"

"Seeing her upright posture, not afraid at all, I'm afraid there's something hidden!"

"Tsk... what's the secret? She's the lady from Qingshui County!"

"Ah, are you planning to suppress it with power?"

The four people in the front naturally heard all the discussions of the people, felt a little panic in their hearts, and looked at each other.

Someone raised his head and said, "So what if it's the lady? Could it be that she's selling dog meat under the guise of mutton?"

Tang Youyou waved to the waiter: "Bring over a stool and bring some tea. I'm so thirsty!"

He completely ignored the whispers of the crowd and actually drank tea in public.

When Yue Niang came and saw her like this, she felt a little relieved.

"Yue Niang, please pick out some ready-made clothes for this girl. I'll pay her later."

Yue Niang naturally understood what she meant and took Xue'er away.

"Why are you leaving? Stop! We need an explanation for this."
