Chapter 65 Perfect Cooperation
"Taohua, I have to remind you. Even if we have such a space, we can't live a life without worries about food and clothing. We can only support ourselves with the help of the things in the space." Tong Huaqiong said.
Gu Taohua poured a basin of cold water on her head and asked, "Why?"
Gu Taohua thought, wouldn't it be a waste of God's gift if I didn't lie down?
Tong Huaqiong glared at the fat girl and began to educate her in a threatening manner.
"After the cave of the girl who saved the fox fairy in our village was robbed, her tribe members stopped farming and worked, and only thought about taking things out of the cave every day. Eventually, because one family took more things and the other took less, they became estranged, and they started with quarrels and fought until they were bloody, and finally they fought in the cave. The gods couldn't stand it and sealed the cave, and none of the tribe members came out."
After listening to Tong Huaqiong's story, Gu Taohua nodded thoughtfully, meaning that she had to continue working hard to get rich.
This is not impossible. After all, it is easier to get rich through hard work with resources than through hard work without resources.
"Mom, I know what you mean." Gu Taohua responded politely.
She said that her mother could make such delicious pastries, and it seemed to be all thanks to the space.
"Grandma, I'll take out the things you need." Maner said to Tong Huaqiong.
Man'er did not listen to Tong Huaqiong's teaching Gu Taohua. She sat at the table and ate snacks leisurely. After finishing her snacks, she followed the previous procedure of entering the cave and took the things out.
As for what to take, she listened to Tong Huaqiong.
Tong Huaqiong had the same idea, so she ordered some things and asked Maner to take them out in batches.
Maner's entry into the space this time made Tong Huaqiong make a new discovery, that is, Maner and Gu Taohua can actually enter the space without staying with her.
This would be easy then. From now on, she would focus on purchasing new supplies, Gu Taohua would come in to restock, and Maner would take out the needed supplies.
What a perfect supply chain!
"Man'er, take this out."
Tong Huaqiong pointed to the newly purchased Band-Aids, disinfectant and anti-inflammatory medicine.
In this day and age, even tetanus and a minor cold can be fatal, so there is no harm in having these medicines on hand.
"I got it, grandma." Maner nodded and put the Band-Aids, disinfectant and anti-inflammatory drugs into her pocket and held it in her hand.
In this way, Man'er moved a lot of things out under Tong Huaqiong's command. Every time she finished moving, Gu Taohua would replenish the goods according to Tong Huaqiong's instructions.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren work together perfectly.
......
Tong Huaqiong opened her eyes in the dim light of day, and a big fat face with a smile appeared in front of her, which scared her so much that she sat up.
"Mom, are you scared? It's me, your daughter Taohua." Gu Taohua said while sitting beside Tong Huaqiong's bed.
The sun rose from the west, and Gu Taohua got up so early.
"Mom, I thought I was dreaming last night, but when I woke up I saw it was real." Gu Taohua couldn't suppress her excitement.
Gu Taohua woke up when the rooster crowed three times. She didn't know whether everything she experienced in the space was a dream, so she got dressed, got up and went to Tong Huaqiong's room.
Seeing the supplies that Maner took out of Tong Huaqiong's room, he felt relieved.
It turns out everything is true!
Gu Taohua excitedly sat on Tong Huaqiong's bed waiting for Tong Huaqiong to wake up.
Seeing Tong Huaqiong open her eyes, Gu Taohua kept talking.
"Mom, the things Maner took are all in your room."
"Mom, you're finally awake."
Tong Huaqiong turned over, pushed Gu Taohua away and said, "Let me take a breath."
Gu Taohua took her arms away from Tong Huaqiong and sat down beside her bed.
"Taohua, remember, you can't tell anyone about the space. Think about the girl who was burned to death by the fox fairy who gave her all the wealth in the cave. If you tell anyone about it before they do anything, I will lock you up like a lunatic."
Tong Huaqiong sat up straight, half giving an admonition and half threatening.
Gu Taohua nodded frantically.
You must not say it.
She couldn't even hold back on telling others about the fifty-seven taels of silver she earned from selling cakes yesterday, let alone a treasure space like that.
There was the precedent of the girl who was burned to death. She wouldn't tell anyone unless a knife was put to her head.
"Mom, not only will I not tell anyone, I will also be nicer to Maner." Gu Taohua said.
She already understood why Maner had replaced Yaozu and became the first among the Gu family's grandchildren. It was entirely because Maner was in control of the family's daily necessities.
Tong Huaqiong was quite satisfied with Gu Taohua's change of mind.
I felt relieved looking at the pile of supplies beside the bed. From now on, I don’t have to worry about the inconsistent taste of Peach Blossom desserts.
As the mother and daughter were talking, Chen Sufen knocked on the door and walked in with water for washing her face.
"Sister-in-law, let me do it." Gu Taohua took the face-washing water from Chen Sufen with a respectful look on her face.
Before, Gu Taohua used to order Chen Sufen around, but these days, she stopped ordering her around after being told off by Tong Huaqiong, but there wasn't much respect for her. Ever since she saw Man'er's power, she began to respect Chen Sufen from the bottom of her heart.
"The peach blossoms are up so early."
Chen Sufen was flattered by Gu Taohua's respect.
It is said that the sister-in-law is a precious guest in the family. No matter in the past or now, Chen Sufen has always been very pampering to Gu Taohua.
Tong Huaqiong was helped by Chen Sufen and Gu Taohua to put on her clothes and wash her face. She couldn't help but ask, "Where's Yue'e?"
Normally, when she woke up in the morning, Liu Yue'e would be the first to bring her water for washing her face. Today, she felt a little uncomfortable not seeing Liu Yue'e flattering her.
"My second brother's wife is taking care of Miss Lu." Chen Sufen said.
Tong Huaqiong sneered in her heart. That's what she said. I thought Liu Yue'e got up early and went to the kitchen to cook for herself, but it turned out that she went to curry favor with the Lu family.
Tong Huaqiong dressed neatly and walked out of the upper room, where she saw Liu Yue'e surrounding Lu Zhaozhao with a flattering smile on her face.
"Mom, you're up? I thought you were sleeping a little longer." Liu Yue'e saw Tong Huaqiong quickly coming to her.
Tong Huaqiong looked Liu Yue'e up and down and found that the clothes she was wearing were delicate and luxurious, and the material was something the Gu family could not afford.
It must have been obtained by currying favor with Lu Zhaozhao.
"Mom, look at the clothes I'm wearing. They were given to me by Miss Lu. I said I didn't want them, but she gave them to me anyway."
Liu Yue'e touched the material on her body and smiled happily.
If only her mother-in-law had come out a little later, maybe Lu Zhaozhao would have taken off the hairpin on her head and given it to her.
"Don't I know you? Even if Miss Lu gave you clothes, would you accept them with peace of mind?" Tong Huaqiong sneered.
Liu Yue'e smiled awkwardly.
"Aunt Tong, I took the initiative to give it to Sister Yue'e." Lu Zhaozhao said.
Tong Huaqiong stared at Liu Yue'e and warned her, "Forget it this time, but don't do it again."
For Lu Zhaozhao, giving a piece of clothing was nothing, but for Liu Yue'e, a piece of clothing was worth her currying favor with him.
"I still have a few clothes. If you don't mind, Sister Yue'e, I'll give them to you." Lu Zhaozhao, this pure white jasmine flower, couldn't understand Tong Huaqiong's expression at all and continued to give clothes to Liu Yue'e.
Liu Yue'e understood her mother-in-law very well. When she saw Tong Huaqiong's murderous look, she waved her hands at Lu Zhaozhao with regret and said, "This one is enough."
"Zhao Zhao, go and see how your brother is doing." Tong Huaqiong sent Lu Zhaozhao away.
After Lu Zhaozhao entered the room, Tong Huaqiong began to show her power to Liu Yue'e.
"You are such a shallow-minded person, you are fawning on me now."
"Are you made of iron or copper? How can you be so thick? If I hadn't come out, would you still want more things from others? You'd better put away your thoughts of taking advantage of others. It's embarrassing enough."
Liu Yue'e was so scared that she shook her head repeatedly and dared not think about the hairpin on Lu Zhaozhao's head.
Tong Huaqiong scolded Liu Yue'e not only because of her fawning behavior this morning, but also because she wanted to avenge Lu Zhaozhao in her previous life.
Thinking about how Lu Zhaozhao was very warm towards Liu Yue'e in her previous life, treating her like a sister-in-law, giving her jewelry and clothes, which whetted Liu Yue'e's appetite, who was already a little greedy.
Lu Zhaozhao and Gu Jingzhe have been married for many years but have no children. Liu Yue'e even thought of adopting Yaozu to Gu Jingzhe as Lu Zhaozhao's son so that he could inherit the Lu family's property.
Lu Zhaozhao refused and offended Liu Yue'e.
Later, after Gu Jingzhe married the princess, Liu Yue'e turned to curry favor with the princess, and together with the princess, they trampled on Lu Zhaozhao and called her a chicken that couldn't lay eggs.
Of course, Liu Yue'e didn't end up well for following behind the princess.
The princess decided to let Gu Dashu divorce Liu Yue'e and marry her to a concubine's daughter of a wealthy family. After being divorced, Liu Yue'e lived a more miserable life than Lu Zhaozhao. Lu Zhaozhao at least had money, but Liu Yue'e had no money and no background, so she could only become a nun in the temple and wait for death.
Liu Yue'e looks smart, but in fact she is a fool who is easily fooled by small favors. She needs to be constantly warned, otherwise she will easily go astray.
