Chapter 6

Mrs. Lu said these things that made Li Xin's face flushed with embarrassment, somewhat shyly said "Mother, I'm still young."

"As a mother, how could I expect you to deal with these concubines, bastards and maids in the future. But nowadays, which man does not have concubines and intercourse with them. Not to mention others, just look at your father who has always publicly respected and loved me on the outside, yet he still has three concubines." Lu did not want her daughter to go through the same experiences as herself in the future. But men have always had three wives and four concubines. If the daughter is not mentally prepared early on, she will suffer losses in the future. Like herself back then, giving her heart away, only to get heart-wrenching pain in return. If she had not learned to let go afterwards, she didn't know how she could have endured those days.

Li Xin saw the grief on Lu's face and quickly went to sit in front of Lu, grabbing her hand tightly, "Mother, I'll listen to you. I still have you and brother."

"It's because I have you that I can endure better. Therefore Xin'er, when you get married in the future, the most important thing is to have a child. This is the foundation for gaining a foothold in your husband's family and also your reliance." Looking at her daughter's innocent face, Lu thought of the same experiences that awaited her daughter in the future. Her heart was filled with all kinds of discomfort. If possible, she really hoped her daughter could stay by her side for the rest of her life.

"Mother, you're right, I'll listen to you," Li Xin held Lu's hand tighter.

Lu sorted out her emotions. Based on the personalities of several aunts in the rear courtyard of Li House, as well as how the principal wife should treat the aunts and manage the concubines and bastards. Lu told Li Xin many things, taking advantage of this opportunity. Lu truly cares wholeheartedly for Li Xin as a loving mother, only wishing that Li Xin will have a smooth and fulfilling life with children in the future.

While Lu was speaking rationally, what Li Xia faced when she returned to Mei Yard was having her ears twisted.

Li Xia returned to Mei Yard with the box, guessing how much silver was inside. If it wasn't inappropriate to open it outside, Li Xia really wanted to open it now and take a look. After entering Mei Yard, Li Xia quickened her pace walking inside. Before she could open the box, her ears were already grabbed by someone first "Young aunt is hurting me, painful, ouch...young aunt...it hurts so much..." Li Xia cried painfully while covering her ears.

"It should hurt, tell me what business does a young lady like you have getting involved in this matter? What if something unexpected happened, how will I live?" Aunt Mei kept twisting Li Xia's ears, scolding her loudly. Her eyes began to well up with tears as she continued scolding.

Entering her inner bedroom, Li Xia changed out of her clothes and shoes. Qiu Shui brought in tea and snacks, seeing Li Xia lying down to rest, she put down the tea and snacks before exiting and closing the door to let Li Xia rest properly. It had truly been a nerve wrecking day.

Hearing the door close, Li Xia opened her eyes looking at her own hands. Li Xia's palms conjured a rapidly spinning tornado. Then a second, a third tornado appeared. Struggling at the fourth tornado, Li Xia stopped exerting her powers, letting the four tornadoes in her palms spin for an hour before retracting her abilities. She was born with these wind elemental abilities in the apocalyptic previous life, and the tornado was her signature technique. Relying on this, she became one of the top ten masters in the apocalyptic world.

That's right, Li Xia had memories from her past life. The Li Xia in her past life was born a supernatural ability user.

She entered training immediately after birth until age 10 when she entered the battlefield. Her subsequent life consisted of battling zombies and mutant creatures. Struggling each day just to survive. Her abilities also leveled up quickly as she grew stronger, taking on increasingly difficult missions until she finally died in combat.

Death could be considered a form of salvation for people in the apocalypse. But Li Xia didn't expect that after her death she would arrive in this place. Although having people order her around restricting her freedom and making her kneel at times, with rules everywhere, but the food here was delicious, plentiful and she didn't have to fight. This one point made Li Xia extremely satisfied. Hence she harbored an aversion towards her accompanying wind elemental abilities from her past life, not wanting to train it, because training it reminded her of the apocalypse which she detested a lot. If not for the human traffickers today, Li Xia would've almost forgotten about her wind abilities completely.

However, it was also the incident today that made Li Xia understand this era was not entirely safe either. She still needed to cultivate her abilities to protect herself and her loved ones.

With this thought in mind, Li Xia felt her abilities level up, sensing it had increased to level two. At age 11 in her previous life, Li Xia's abilities had already reached level five, showing how negligent she had become in this life.

But from today onwards, Li Xia was determined not to be negligent again, spending two hours daily cultivating and training, becoming even stronger. Only then could she protect Aunt Mei, Li Xin, Li Hui and Lu Madam properly.

Li Xia trained until dusk, when Qiu Shui knocked on the door announcing "Young miss, dinner has been served."
