Chapter 42: Discussion (1)
Mu Qingxin practiced Qingfeng Step hard all night. The space in the room was still sufficient for her to practice Qingfeng Step.
While Mu Qingxin was determined to protect her family, Mu Zhaohui and everyone else were holding a meeting in the study. They were eating the fruit that Mu Qingxin had just given to everyone and patiently waiting for Mu Qidong's arrival.
"Dongdong"
"Come in"
Mu Qidong pushed the door open and walked in. Mu Zhaohui gestured for him to sit down. Borisa beside him hurriedly asked, "Dongdong, does your sister like the room that grandma decorated? And the gifts, the clothes and hats?"
Mu Qidong had a faint smile on his face. He glanced at his great-grandfather and grandfather. They all had the same expectation in their eyes. He smiled and said, "Xinxin likes the room that grandma decorated for her very much. She also likes the gifts you gave her, especially the watch that great-grandfather gave her."
Hearing this, joy showed on their faces. Mu Zhaohui also smiled happily with a proud look on his face. Look, Xinxin likes the watch given by Emperor Gaozu the most, haha.
"Also, my sister said that she loves everyone very much." Mu Qidong said this with a smile in his eyes.
The others were stunned for a moment, then when they realized what was happening, their eyes turned slightly red and they all had satisfied smiles on their faces.
When the child still in the mother's womb was told that it was a girl, everyone in the family was filled with anticipation and love. The Mu family had only one direct descendant, Mu Fengnian, and the first three were all boys. The younger generation of the Ou family was also all boys. Finally, there was a girl, and both families were extremely excited.
But that incident caused the two little princesses to leave the mother's body before their full term and fail to develop perfectly. Later, they were diagnosed with double F constitution, no special abilities, and were useless. None of these were as great as the blow of knowing that baby Xinxin was mentally incompetent.
They watched helplessly as the child they had been waiting for became mentally retarded, unable to take care of himself, and even unable to recognize people. They were distressed, angry, and sad.
Now, the baby they had been waiting for has recovered and is now healthy. She can even call people and cook for them. She also said that she loves them and they love her too, very much.
After a while, everyone regained their composure. Mu Zhaohui sat up straight and looked at them. "Have you noticed anything unusual in your body?"
When everyone heard this, their faces turned serious. Of course they noticed it.
Mu Qixi stopped laughing and said seriously, "Grandfather, are you talking about my sister's fruit or the ancient rice we eat?" Yes, the fruit was produced by Mu Qingxin's space, and it was normal for it to contain spiritual energy, but the rice made by Mu Qingxin is now made of interstellar ingredients, and there is actually energy flow. This is a great shock.
"My sister said at the time that her space is different from others. It can be entered and planted. I think these fruits grow in my sister's space because of the space, so there is a flow of energy." Mu Qidong analyzed calmly.
"My mental strength has recovered, and all the hidden injuries I had before have healed." Ou Xuemei said. Everyone looked at her in shock after hearing this, and Mu Fengnian was even more surprised.
"I kept eating the fruits Xinxin gave me and the meals Xinxin cooked, so I could recover."
"Mei, is that true?" Mu Fengnian looked at his wife expectantly, and when he saw his wife nod, he hugged her excitedly. Although people in the interstellar space are long-lived, once the body is damaged, the body cannot be forged by cultivation, the function will quickly decline, and various diseases will follow.
Mu Fengnian has been looking for medicinal herbs that can repair his wife's body over the years. He doesn't want his wife to die before him. He can't live without his wife.
While the others were surprised, they also began to worry. There were too many people in the interstellar space with damaged mental strength and declining physical functions, and Xinxin was able to restore a person to their original state in such a short time. If this news were to spread, it would probably attract the attention of people all over the interstellar space.
"Granddaughter-in-law" Mu Zhaohui called Ou Xuemei.
Ou Xuemei stepped out of her husband's arms and said solemnly, "Grandpa, I know how serious this is, but I won't tell anyone else."
Mu Zhaohui nodded and then said, "But Xinxin likes to cook. I think this is an ability given to her by heaven. It may also be to make up for the suffering she has endured over the years."
When others heard this, they also thought it was very likely.
"Fortunately, Xinxin's ability is not a secret. Everyone knows it, and the higher-ups also know it, so we don't have to worry so much now." Mu Taoxu said.
"As long as my sister's fruits are not discovered by others, as for the ancient rice, we can make her cooking method public. As for whether outsiders can make it, it is not our concern," Mu Qinan also analyzed.
"Yes, if they can do it, then it will be our contribution to the interstellar people, allowing more people to recover their health and improve their abilities." Mu Qixi said with a smile.
"What if I can't make it? But I still want this ability? You've all eaten the ancient rice Xinxin made. Not to mention the energy contained in it, just its taste alone is enough to make people want it."
Mu Zhaohui's words made everyone fall into silence, and no one could think of a good solution for a while.
"With our Mu family and Ou family, plus the Zong family, can't we protect Xinxin?" Ou Xuemei said with red eyes.
Mu Zhaohui looked at his granddaughter-in-law with a feeling of pity in his heart, but he still told her the truth, "Granddaughter-in-law, you must know that this is an era where the strong are respected. Although our three families have a prominent position in the capital star, that is only the capital star, only in the alliance. Don't forget, there is also the empire, and there are species besides us humans..."
"I won't let my daughter come to any harm!" Mu Fengnian said firmly, his eyes full of sharpness.
Mu Taoxu said in a deep voice, "There are so many pharmaceutical companies in the interstellar space nowadays, why is the Ji family the only one that dominates? Moreover, their medicines are spread all over the interstellar space, and no one dares to consume them."
Everyone was confused as to why the Ji family was mentioned, so Mu Qinan continued, "That's because the potions developed by the Zong family have the highest energy purity, and their secret formula is unique. No other pharmaceutical company can match them. One reason is that they don't have advanced equipment, and the other is that they don't have superb technology. That's why the Ji family is so dominant in the interstellar world."
"Yes, that's the reason." Mu Taoxu said excitedly, looking at everyone, "Now, apart from that person, there are only four major families in the capital star: the Ou family, the Mu family, the Zong family, and the Ji family. Over the years, our Mu family has become weak, and the old man of the Ou family has also retired. Our two families have entered the military and political fields, and our strength is far less than before.
The Zong family has been prosperous for a long time because of its inventions, and the Ji family is even more so because of its stable position in medicine. The only one who can oppose the Ji family is the Zong family. Why do these two families have been prosperous for so long?
