Chapter 90 Live Your Own Life
"You must be tired from socializing. When I saw Qiao Mo's expression, I thought she had brought back a load of several kilograms." Wu Daming said with a smile. He had been in more contact with them during this period, so naturally he spoke more casually.
"It's past her nap time, and the clock has started working." Kang Mingyuan smiled helplessly.
"It seems that your daily routine is quite regular. Do you also want to take a nap?" Wu Daming wondered if he had disturbed them.
"We don't take naps in winter." Han Yimo shook his head. They only took naps in summer. It was too troublesome in winter as they had to take off their clothes before going to bed. Even if they felt tired, they would just sit on a chair and take a nap.
"Let's start studying."
Time passed quickly, and it was already the eighth day of the New Year. The educated youth who had gone back home to celebrate the New Year came back one after another. The first to come back was Chen Ran, but she looked very haggard. It had been just over a month since they last met, and she seemed to have aged several years.
Qiao Mo inferred that something big might have happened in her family, but she didn't say anything, and she was too embarrassed to ask. She just gave her a bowl of noodles, advised her to have a good rest, and went back to the house.
In the afternoon, Wang Jiaxing and Wu Yishu also came back. Apart from coming back empty-handed, there wasn't much change in them. Next came Chu Maoshen and Liu Ruoling. They were both carrying large and small bags, but Chu Maoshen's face was so dark that ink could drip from it. Although Liu Ruoling had uncontrollable excitement in her eyes, she tried her best to suppress it.
The last one to come back was Tang Xinmei. Because her journey was the longest, everyone thought it was okay for her to come back last. Only Qiao Mo saw despair in her eyes.
"Sister Xinmei, come out and eat something." Because it was already late and everyone had already eaten dinner, Qiao Mo also cooked her a bowl of noodles with a poached egg.
"Qiao Mo, thank you." Tang Xinmei opened the door, took the noodles, and thanked her with a forced smile.
"It's okay. You must have been tired from the car ride. Have a rest after breakfast. Don't think too much about some things. You have to walk your own path." Qiao Mo smiled at her.
"I see, thank you." After hearing her words and seeing the smile on her face, Tang Xinmei felt enlightened.
Qiao Mo, an orphan, could live so freely, so why couldn't she? Since they had given up on her and their family, why should she compromise herself for the sake of "family"? From now on, she would just pretend to be an orphan herself.
Thinking that she would have to go to work again the next day, Qiao Mo used her supernatural power to temper her body again that night. Perhaps because she had already gone through many tempering processes, a lot of impurities in her body had been expelled.
This time, the tempering was not as painful, and the dirt discharged was not as much. There was only a thin layer of gray substance with a faint smell. She entered the wooden bracelet space and washed it twice and it was clean. However, her physical condition had improved. Not only was her body lighter, but her strength had also increased a lot.
This was a good sign, indicating that there were not many impurities in her body. She would no longer need to temper her body specifically in the future, and only needed to temper her body during the upgrade.
At this moment, she felt that she had reached the peak state both mentally and physically, and she quickly sat cross-legged on the bed to practice "The Secret of Herbs and Trees". Sure enough, she quickly entered that ethereal state.
It was four hours later when she woke up from her meditation. She was full of energy and did not need to rest at all. She slipped into the space.
She came to the back of the house. Although the small orchard only had a few trees, the transplanted orange trees, jujube trees, pear trees and chestnut trees were all in bloom and would soon bear fruit. The kiwi cuttings had already grown vines and climbed up the trellis, and the trees planted from seeds had also grown a lot taller.
