70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 263: Huo Qingze Got Screwed Over

"Why is the house so expensive when there’s nothing inside?" Xu Hai was frustrated.

"Dad, it’s in the center of the provincial capital. Others can’t even buy it if they want to." Xu Mumu rolled her eyes. This house will definitely appreciate in value in the future, it won’t be a loss.

"So, do we have to buy all the furniture ourselves?" Xu Hai felt depressed, looking up at his daughter.

"Of course, in a few days, you and I will go and set up everything there. I still have some money; we can buy some furniture." Xu Mumu, seeing her parents’ distress, decided to take on the task of buying furniture.

As expected, after hearing Xu Mumu’s words, Xu Hai immediately brightened up.

Xu Mumu raised an eyebrow. It seems her parents still have some money; they didn’t make too much of a fuss. She could trick them into helping again next time.

Everyone in the Old Xu Family knew about the house purchase. Xu Xue was shocked as she looked in the direction of the main house. How do they have that much money? Did they sell the treasure they brought back from the cave?

It shouldn’t be. Selling those things now wouldn’t fetch much money. She was certain that Xu Mumu might have been reborn, just like her. With Xu Mumu around, the folks in the main house wouldn’t do anything too foolish.

So how did Xu Mumu and her family make money? Even with Xu Minghui’s salary and the job sale, they couldn’t gather four thousand yuan, right?

Meanwhile, over the past year, she had been secretly selling various snacks in the black market and only managed to save just over a thousand yuan.

After her brother was born, his health was always poor. He had frequent doctor’s visits, and the expensive milk powder incurred significant expenses. She didn’t even have a thousand yuan left in her hands now.

Now that Xu Mumu and her family had bought a house, Xu Xue was quite envious, even a little jealous. How could the people in the main house afford it?

Taking a deep breath, Xu Xue changed her little brother’s coat. His clothes got dirty while drinking milk powder earlier.

Xu Xue pursed her lips. She also wanted to buy a house, but unfortunately, she didn’t have enough money.

Unaware of Xu Xue’s thoughts, the next day, Xu Mumu and her friends received their first batch of university admission notices.

All of them were accepted, making Xu Mumu extremely happy. She chose the Physics Department, Yin Yang chose Economics and Management, both suitable for them. What surprised Xu Mumu was that Huo Qingze chose the Chemistry Department.

Not to mention, this department seems quite mismatched with his future wealthy identity.

"Why did Huo Qingze choose the Chemistry Department?" Xu Mumu curiously asked Yin Yang.

"He originally wanted to choose my major, but his dad stopped him. His stepmother directly changed his choice, though didn’t want to overdo it, so they picked Chemistry for him." Yin Yang explained what he knew to Xu Mumu.

"His stepmom, huh, poor Huo." Xu Mumu chuckled, recalling what kind of person Huo Qingze’s stepmother was. There were quite a few descriptions of her in the book. After Xu Xue and Huo Qingze got married, they constantly fought with this stepmother.

"Who cares about them? He knows how to handle those people. Do you really think he’s easy to bully? You’ll see, it won’t be long before he gets back what he deserves from them." Yin Yang, who had lived in the same yard with Huo Qingze, understood the situation quite well.

"That’s true." Xu Mumu nodded with a smile.

"You seem to know a lot about Huo Qingze, don’t you?" Yin Yang looked at Xu Mumu. He felt that his partner knew many things, especially about the reinstatement of the college entrance exam, which had quite an impact on him.

"Maybe. Why, do you want to know about him? I can tell you secretly." Xu Mumu winked, pretending not to understand the meaning behind Yin Yang’s words.

"Sure, then tell me about Huo Qingze’s family." Yin Yang laughed.

Xu Mumu wrote a few words in Yin Yang’s palm, "Did I say it right?"

"Yes, Mumu is amazing. You even know this. I bet Huo Qingze never told anyone." Yin Yang replied with a smile.

Not even Xu Xue knew about Huo Qingze’s family situation. In her past life, she only knew Huo Qingze from TV, apart from being the future richest man, she knew nothing else about him.

As for Xu Mumu, she knew these things from books, though they weren’t detailed.

However, Huo Qingze’s dad really had a high status and fought with Huo Qingze for a long time before being brought down.

"Hmph, I am indeed awesome. Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone. But I know a secret about Huo Qingze’s stepmother that he’s surely interested in." Xu Mumu said with a smile.

Though she hadn’t interacted much with Huo Qingze, she had a good impression of him. Since he wanted to fight his stepmother, she’d like to lend a hand.

"What’s the secret?" Yin Yang asked curiously, wanting to know how much she really knew.

"His brother is actually the child of a man surnamed Yan. Tell him this so he can investigate on his own." Xu Mumu said with a mischievous smile, ignoring Yin Yang’s probing gaze. Yin Yang had doubted her several times, but she had a thick skin by now.

"Alright, I’ll mention it to him when I go back later." Yin Yang considered how Xu Mumu seemed to know so much, speaking confidently about things even Huo Qingze and his father likely didn’t know.

"How much do you know about me?" Yin Yang asked out of curiosity. His partner was too mysterious, as if she might disappear if he didn’t keep a close grip.

"About you? I don’t know." Xu Mumu shook her head. The book mostly revolved around Xu Xue and Huo Qingze, with the rest being a bunch of bizarre characters. After Xu Xue and Huo Qingze defeated them, they lived a happy life. Other supporting roles were not described much.

Someone like Yin Yang, who left early and wasn’t centered around the main characters, naturally wasn’t elaborated on either.

"You know so much about Huo Qingze, but not about me?" Yin Yang’s heart was sour, looking pitifully at Xu Mumu.

"There, there, I didn’t know you before, but I understand you now. I can learn more about you later." Xu Mumu coaxed her young boyfriend.

"Hmph, that’s more like it." Sufficiently consoled, Yin Yang didn’t continue to cause a fuss.

After walking around outside with Yin Yang, Xu Mumu headed home.

Meanwhile, at Yin Yang’s end, Huo Qingze was packing at the small courtyard in the educated youth spot, preparing to go to the Imperial City early. Since his stepmother had wronged him, he naturally planned to return the favor.

"When are you leaving?" Yin Yang asked curiously, looking at Huo Qingze.
