Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

“Miss Shao, would you be willing to become this young master’s maid?”

Lu Changsheng looked at Shao Yuyao before him and asked with a smile.

Although whether he asked didn’t really make a difference, the woman before him had no right to refuse anyway.

But it could be hypocrisy, or perhaps a flexible moral bottom line, so he still posed the question.

After all, he, Lu, never coerced anyone against their will.

Shao Yuyao appeared slightly taken aback.

Then, looking at Lu Changsheng, she squeezed out a bit of a smile and said, “I am willing to serve as the young master’s maid.”

“Good, Manager Feng, I’m quite satisfied with her.”

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng didn’t say much more and nodded towards Feng Jiuniang.

In his view, with her figure and the presence of a Spiritual Root, a hundred and fifty Spirit Stones was not expensive at all, quite a bargain indeed.

Just bearing him a few children with Spiritual Roots would mean he had struck gold!

Immediately afterwards, Feng Jiuniang waved her hand, signalling the girl in the red dress to take Shao Yuyao out.

To complete the subsequent transaction with Lu Changsheng.

After Lu Changsheng had paid the remaining Spirit Stones, he was also given a Spiritual Contract.

It was Shao Yuyao’s deed of servitude.

But this Spiritual Contract was much more authoritative, able to decide Shao Yuyao’s life and death.

And for the next three years, should any issues arise with Shao Yuyao or she brought about any karmic troubles, Lu Changsheng could bring this Spiritual Contract to White Jade Tower and have them handle it.

“Young Master Han, please take care. If you need anything in the future, feel free to visit us often~”

Feng Jiuniang warmly saw Lu Changsheng and Shao Yuyao off the premises of White Jade Tower.

As a manager at the White Jade Tower, she could tell from Lu Changsheng’s clothing, appearance, and demeanor that he was a highly potential major client.

Otherwise, for such a small transaction, she wouldn’t have been so courteous.

“Okay.”

So, Lu Changsheng, taking Shao Yuyao with him, first returned to the Spiritual Talisman Shop.

It was high noon, and Zhang Shan’s wife, along with their child, came to the Spiritual Talisman Shop delivering food in a lunch box.

Seeing a beautiful woman with a meek appearance following behind Lu Changsheng, Zhang Shan couldn’t help but show a hint of envy.

Upon reaching the third floor, Lu Miaoge saw Shao Yuyao and simply asked if this was the maid Lu Changsheng had purchased from White Jade Tower.

Lu Changsheng nodded and briefly explained Shao Yuyao’s situation.

Lu Miaoge didn’t say much upon hearing this.

She was even more aware than Lu Changsheng of the cruelty faced by the lower ranks within the Cultivation World.

Every day, countless tales unfolded of bones buried in the wilderness, families destroyed and scattered.

If one were to sympathize with every such case, it would be overwhelming.

In her eyes, it was fortunate for this woman to become Lu Changsheng’s maid.

After all, in Qingzhu Mountain, although Lu Changsheng’s reputation was not very good due to taking wives and concubines and having too many children,

he still had a very good reputation in dealing with his wives, concubines, and children.

Night fell.

Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge got off work and headed back to the Lu Family’s large courtyard in the Eastern District.

As for Shao Yuyao, the new maid, she followed half a step behind Lu Changsheng with her eyes demurely lowered.

Li Shi and Wang Wu exchanged glances upon witnessing this scene.

They could both see a touch of sorrow in each other’s eyes.

Although they aspired to dedicate themselves to Lu Changsheng, they understood.

A man like Lu Changsheng was never short of women.

The few in the Lu Family’s courtyard didn’t make any remark about Lu Changsheng bringing home a woman.

After all, it was just the purchase of a maid.

Only the second daughter saw this and let out a louder snort than usual, her face showing even more disdain.

Lu Changsheng smiled wryly, returned to his small courtyard and directly instructed Shao Yuyao.

“Go and prepare a bath for me.”

Since he had bought her to be a maid, naturally she was to be put to work.

Though he had a moral bottom line, he did not have an obsession with moral cleanliness.

He didn’t go so far as to preach equality and treat a purchased servant with the same regard as anyone else.

A maid should naturally look and act as one.

As if realizing something, Shao Yuyao’s eyes trembled, and she quietly acknowledged with a “Yes”.

Then, carrying a bath bucket and bringing hot water, her cheeks flushed as she began to undress Lu Changsheng.

She also pursed her lips, undressing herself, and together with the “swooshing” sound of the water, entered the bath with Lu Changsheng, her delicate, soft hands washing over his body.

As a cultivator clad in a Magical Robe, Lu Changsheng’s body never really accrued any dirt, making bathing somewhat unnecessary.

But taking a bath was a form of relaxation and indulgence.

With the means, one should enjoy such pleasures. Otherwise, wasn’t life just a relentless pursuit of immortality?

After she had scrubbed Lu Changsheng’s body thoroughly, the blush on Shao Yuyao’s cheeks deepened, and with shy arms loosely embracing Lu Changsheng’s neck, she spoke in a embarrassed tone, “Young master…”

Despite the stiffness in her movements and voice, it was clear that White Jade Tower had trained her well; she was very accommodating.

Right then, Lu Changsheng could no longer suppress himself.

After all, it had been nearly a month since he last indulged in the pleasures of the flesh.

Suddenly, inside the bathtub, the water surged tumultuously, splashing everywhere, with vigorous agitation.

The next day.

“Indeed, it’s said that ‘solitude yields no life, and singularity brings no growth’; the harmony of yin and yang is essential.”

Lu Changsheng emerged from his room feeling refreshed and invigorated.

It’s truly better to have someone by your pillow.

Without cuddling the tender warmth of a beauty, even sleep seemed to lack something.

He didn’t take Shao Yuyao with him to the Spiritual Talisman Shop.

As he stepped out of the courtyard, he ran into Lu Miaocheng.

“Changsheng!”

Lu Miaocheng, seeing Lu Changsheng, hurriedly approached him.

His somewhat haggard face showed a hint of awkwardness as he smiled and said, “Changsheng, do you have any spare Spirit Stones on you, could you lend me twenty?”

“Uh…”

Lu Changsheng had thought that the other was looking for him to perhaps discuss books or tea again.

He hadn’t expected a request for Spirit Stones.

And to start with asking for as many as twenty Spirit Stones.

Though he was often lavish with money, twenty Spirit Stones was not a small sum.
