Urban Cultivation: Starting with Winning Back My Wife and Daughter

"Xiaoyu, I heard you resigned from Antai Hospital, is that true?"

Upon hearing his mother's voice, Wang Xingyu suddenly felt an urge to cry.

"Mom, how did you know?"

"You forgot? Qiangzi works as a caregiver at Antai Hospital. He told us about it yesterday when he came back. He also said you were beaten up by gangsters. Xiaoyu, what exactly happened?"

Qiangzi's real name is Xu Yiqiang. He is Wang Xingyu's neighbor and elementary school classmate.

Because of poor academic performance, he entered the workforce at a young age.

He was able to work as a caregiver at Antai Hospital because Wang Xingyu introduced him to the job.

"Mom, I resigned voluntarily, I wasn't fired. The main reason is that Antai Hospital was too corrupt, I just couldn't stand it anymore. Now I've opened a clinic and am working on my own. As for the rumors about the underworld, those are just rumors, there's nothing to it."

"The news of your vice president being arrested for harvesting organs from living donors has spread like wildfire. I can't believe a doctor who's supposed to save lives would do such a thing; it's utterly heinous. Just resign. You can't learn anything good from associating with someone like that. But will you even make money running a clinic?"

"Don't worry, it's much better than what I had at Antai Hospital."

"That's good. Xiaoyu, are you still in touch with Yuxi? She has to work and take care of the child all by herself, and she doesn't have any parents around. It's really not easy for her. You are Xiaoxin'er's father, so you must take on the responsibility of being a father."

"These past few days, I've been picking up and dropping off Xiaoxin'er every day, and we eat together in the afternoon. Mom, Dad called me a jerk, saying I'm not fit to be a husband and father. I was furious and we had a huge fight. Looking back now, I think he was right. It's all my fault. I had such a wonderful wife like Yuxi and such a lovely daughter like Xiaoxin'er, but I didn't cherish them. I was incredibly stupid. Now I'm trying to win Yuxi back and remarry her."

"Really? That's great, you little rascal, you've finally come to your senses."

Hearing Wang Xingyu's words, Su Nianxue was overjoyed.

"Mom, please apologize to Dad for me. I'm too ashamed to go back alone. Once my relationship with Yuxi has progressed, I'll bring them home to visit you, and then I'll apologize to Dad in person."

"What do you mean by 'bearing thorns to apologize'? There's no such thing as a father and son holding a grudge overnight. As long as you can remarry Yuxi, your father and I will be happy."

"Mom, I'll transfer some money to your bank account in a bit. You and Dad can buy a big apartment in the county town. You've worked hard your whole lives, it's time for you to enjoy life."

"Forget it. Housing prices are ridiculously high these days. It's not easy for you to make money running a clinic all by yourself, so you should keep it for yourself."

Su Nianxue was a tenured teacher, and Wang Changtai was a clinic doctor. The two of them lived frugally their whole lives and saved 1.8 million yuan, which they used to buy a house for Wang Xingyu.

Wang Xingyu hadn't thought much of it before, because many people were in the same situation.

But after absorbing the ideas of Taoist Qingye, Wang Xingyu deeply felt the love that the old couple had for him.

She's frugal in her daily life, but when it comes to her son's big event, she'll give her all.

Aside from parents, who else in this world could do that?

"Mom, I cured a big boss's illness the day before yesterday, and he gave me tens of millions in treatment fees. A house worth a few million is nothing."

"Really? You're not kidding me, are you?"

"Really. I'll transfer ten million to you so you can buy the big apartment first, so we don't have to squeeze into that small place when we go back. It's too inconvenient. As for the rest of the money, you and Dad can keep it for yourselves."

Wang Xingyu knew that if he gave his mother ten million yuan directly without explaining the source of the money, she would definitely call him back to ask for clarification. It was better to tell her in advance and make things clear to her.

"Ten million? You...you...are you really my son? I feel like I'm dreaming."

"I promise you'll have sweet dreams from now on. By the way, Mom, shouldn't the Longjing tea garden outside our county town have started harvesting tea by now?"

"It started a week ago."

"Then please do me a favor and buy 100 catties of fresh tea leaves and send them to me. The leaves must be fresh and moist; I need them very much."

Wang Xingyu wanted to use his magic to stir-fry tea, and the first essential element was to use freshly picked tea leaves and use spiritual energy to drive out the moisture inside.

In other words, the moisture in the leaves is replaced with spiritual energy, which then infuses the water when it is steeped.

After drinking it, it will enhance one's energy and spirit, and strengthen the functions of the five internal organs.

"Okay, I'll go buy it now. Qiangzi is leaving this afternoon, I'll have him bring it to you."

"Okay, thank you, Mom."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xingyu logged into his mobile banking app and transferred ten million yuan to his mother.

......

Yucai Community, Qingshui County

Su Nianxue sat on the sofa, looking at the text message sent by Xia Guo Commercial Bank on her phone, somewhat bewildered.

A full ten million!

She and Wang Changtai worked hard their whole lives but couldn't earn even one-fifth of it.

And now this huge sum of money is just lying quietly in his bank account.

However, Su Nianxue felt no joy at all.

Although Wang Xingyu had explained where the money came from, she was still a little worried.

Earning tens of millions by treating an illness? Where in the world is there such a good thing?

Putting everything else aside, just take Wang Changtai as an example. He ran a clinic his whole life, and he only earned five or six thousand a month.

"Click"

The sound of a key turning in the lock came from outside.

Wang Changtai walked into the living room and asked, "Why did you call me back?"

It has to be said that Wang Xingyu's handsome looks are entirely due to his parents' genes.

Both Wang Changtai and Su Nianxue are exceptionally good-looking.

Even though they are over fifty years old, you can still see the charm they had in their youth in them.

Su Nianxue pointed to her phone and said, "I just called my son."

Wang Changtai's face immediately darkened. He said, "This bastard has become obsessed with an internet celebrity. What kind of call did you make to him?"

Wang Xingyu was the top scorer in the college entrance examination during his student years. After graduating from university, he went to work at the prestigious Antai Hospital. Whenever anyone saw Wang Changtai and Su Nianxue, they would praise them endlessly, making the elderly couple very proud.

Now things have gotten really bad. Not only did he become obsessed with an internet celebrity, but he also abandoned his wife and daughter, causing Wang Changtai to have a complete mental breakdown and give Wang Xingyu a severe beating.

The father and son have not been in contact for more than four months, let alone met.

Su Nianxue said, "Xiaoyu has already realized his mistake and asked me to apologize to you on his behalf. He also said he wants to pursue Yuxi again and try to remarry her."

Wang Changtai laughed and said, "Teacher Su, are you treating me like a fool? Your son has been incredibly arrogant since he was a child. Even if he knows he's wrong, he never admits it. And you're asking him to apologize to me? Are you kidding me?"

"Bang"

Su Nianxue slammed her hand on the table and scolded, "Wang Changtai, can you please stop judging people by your old perspective? Xiaoyu may be arrogant, but can't he change?"

Wang Changtai saw that Su Nianxue didn't seem to be lying, but he was still somewhat skeptical and asked suspiciously, "Are you really not lying to me?"

Su Nianxue said, "Of course. Xiaoyu said that once her relationship with Yuxi has progressed, the three of them will come back to see us and apologize to you."

Wang Changtai sat down on the sofa, sighed, and said, "If that's the case, it means he's not completely stupid yet."

"Is he stupid?"

Su Nianxue picked up her phone and said, "Open your eyes and take a good look. What kind of fool could earn so much money?"
