Establish A Long-Lived Family From The Son-In-Law

Chapter 87: Beauty is like a wolf, capable of breaking one's will!

"What strange hobbies could I possibly have?" Lu Changsheng's eyes were clear, and he spoke calmly.

Seeing Lu Changsheng's calm expression, Lu Miaohuan suspiciously glanced at him before looking away without saying anything.

After all, it's just looking. Isn't that why she dressed up like this?

Although she usually faced such gazes with an attitude of "What are you looking at? I'll gouge your eyes out," or directly scolded them, at this moment, she didn't feel any disgust or aversion towards Lu Changsheng's gaze. Instead, she felt a sense of joy.

She felt that she was charming, and indeed, she was the most beautiful.

And so, the two of them walked side by side for a while.

"Alright, I'm home now. Goodbye, Second Miss," Lu Changsheng waved towards Lu Miaohuan when they reached a crossroad.

He didn't have much to talk about with this Second Miss, so naturally, he would go home and take a bath once he arrived.

Seeing Lu Changsheng walk away after only a short distance, without even offering to accompany her or asking if she wanted to visit or have a cup of tea, Lu Miaohuan pouted and said, "Goodbye."

She left like a proud and aloof peacock, her high heels making a "clack clack clack" sound.

Night fell.

The Baiyu Tower sent people to deliver the four maids that Lu Changsheng had purchased.

Because Lu Changsheng was too lazy to wait, he chose these four maids from the available stock.

However, the maid with spiritual roots, Xiao Yueru, had to wait for the Baiyu Tower's notification and would be delivered within a month.

The neighbor, Gao He, saw that Lu Changsheng had bought more maids and couldn't help but feel speechless.

He didn't often come to Lu Changsheng's house, but instead invited Lu Changsheng to his house for tea because he felt that it wasn't appropriate to visit frequently with so many women in Lu Changsheng's courtyard.

Seeing Lu Changsheng buy more maids, he couldn't help but think that he should also be careful.

After all, he also had a daughter at home.

Although his daughter was still young, Lu Changsheng's appearance, demeanor, and temperament were simply irresistible. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a bit worried.

Lu Changsheng naturally had no idea about Gao He's thoughts.

After adding four more maids, he noticed another problem.

The courtyard was becoming too small.

At this rate, if he added a few more people, the courtyard would be too small and they would have to squeeze in.

"Sigh, it's about time to slow down," Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly.

Although buying maids wouldn't be criticized by the Lu family, Lu Jia, and Lu Miaoyun, it was indeed a bit too fast to have ten children in just over half a year in the Nine Dragon District.

Moreover, raising this group of maids in the Nine Dragon District was also a considerable expense.

He couldn't mistreat these maids who were carrying his children.

They ate and drank spiritual rice and food on a daily basis.

They also had to obtain long-term identity cards in the Nine Dragon District.

These scattered living expenses added up, and once the number increased, it was not a small amount.

If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't be able to afford it.

Lu Changsheng didn't think too much about it and let the newly arrived maids serve him for bathing.

The next afternoon, Lu Miaoge came to the Lingfu Shop.

It was because of Lu Miaohuan's matter that she came to thank Lu Changsheng.

The Nine Dragon District was neither big nor small, and both the Lu family and the Zheng family had some influence in the district. It was normal for such matters to reach the ears of both families.

Lu Changsheng naturally regarded it as a trivial matter.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

In Lu Changsheng's daily life, apart from refining the Black Dragon Magic Bead, there were no other changes.

After half a month of refining, he had refined about one-fifth of the Black Dragon Magic Bead.

One of the four maids he had purchased had also successfully become pregnant under his favor.

On this day, a servant came to the Lingfu Shop to inform Lu Changsheng. It was a message from the Second Elder, asking if Lu Changsheng wanted to accompany him back to Qingzhu Mountain in ten days.

"Please tell the Second Elder that I will go back with him when the time comes," Lu Changsheng immediately replied.

He hadn't been back for about four months. Now that the Second Elder was going back, it was only natural for him to go home as well.

Six days later, it was the day for the Lingfu Shop to receive goods and inspect them.

Lu Changsheng had already informed Gao He in advance.

With Gao He's help, they completed the inspection of all the goods in two days.

"Brother Gao, I trouble you with this trip," Lu Changsheng took out twenty spirit stones.

This was the agreed-upon payment.

"Brother Lu, what are you talking about? I should be the one thanking you," Gao He also didn't hold back and happily accepted the spirit stones.

As a middle-grade symbol master, earning ten spirit stones a day was quite a good side income.

After accepting the spirit stones, Gao He pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Lu, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."

"Oh? Brother Gao, just say it. What's there to hesitate about?"

Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow and casually said, "As for me, I work as a talisman master in the Lingfu Shop. I often drink and chat with the talisman masters and shopkeepers of several other Lingfu Shops, so I have a general understanding of the situation of the talisman shops in this market and the quality of their products."

"With the reputation of your Lu family's shop, it seems a bit unreasonable for the goods to have defects."

"Especially for someone like you, who cancels cooperation with several shops every few months. In the end, it seems like you've cooperated with every talisman master in the market."

Gao He spoke up and said so.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng immediately understood the meaning behind Gao He's words.

He was indicating that there might be some problems with the supply of goods in the shop.

After working in the shop for so long, how could he not understand the reasoning behind it?

The entire process of purchasing, procurement, and cooperation in the Lingfu Shop was handled by the shopkeeper, Zhang Shan.

He couldn't believe that there was no trickery or personal gain involved in it.

He himself had casually established a partnership with a supplier, so it was obviously not difficult for Zhang Shan to do the same.

But Zhang Shan had also been working in the Lingfu Shop for more than ten years, and his performance in the past six months had been decent. He was able to get things done and handle matters well.

So it was understandable if he took a little personal gain.

As long as it wasn't excessive, Lu Changsheng would turn a blind eye to it.

After all, where there is water, there are fish.

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Gao. I understand the reasoning behind it," Lu Changsheng said with a smile.

"It seems like I've said too much. Well, indeed, there isn't much of a problem," Gao He said, realizing that his worries were unnecessary.

He had been in contact with Lu Changsheng for a long time, and their relationship was good. He was worried that Lu Changsheng, being young, might be kept in the dark, so he spoke up to remind him.

"Brother Gao, by telling me this, it shows that you consider me, Lu Changsheng, as a friend," Lu Changsheng waved his hand, knowing that Gao He's reminder was well-intentioned.

He also knew Gao He's character, otherwise he wouldn't have invited him to help.

Then the two of them laughed and left, heading to the Yushan Pavilion to have a meal.

When the owner of the Yushan Pavilion, Yu Maocheng, saw the two of them, he gave them a discount and even served a plate of appetizers.

Three days later.

"Second Elder, Sister Miaoge."

Lu Changsheng was bathing in the backyard when he heard the maid Baihe say that the Second Elder and Miss Miaoge had come to visit. He immediately went to the living room.

"Hehe, I originally wanted someone to inform you and have you come directly to the main courtyard. We will set off for Qingzhu Mountain early tomorrow morning."

"But I thought that you have been living on your own for so long without coming to see us, so I came to take a look. I hope we didn't disturb you," the Second Elder, dressed in a green robe, tall and carrying a tray of tea, said with a smile.

Miss Lu Miaoge was dressed in a white gown, sitting elegantly on the side.

"How could it be? Second Elder, you came, and Changsheng hasn't had a chance to welcome you yet," Lu Changsheng politely said.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng chatted with the Second Elder for a while, and then took the Second Elder and Lu Miaoge to tour this courtyard.

During the process, the Second Elder couldn't help but shake his head when he saw so many beautiful women in Lu Changsheng's courtyard.

He thought to himself that Lu Changsheng's reputation as a ladies' man was indeed well-deserved.

How long has he been in Jiulongfang City?

In just half a year, he has taken in so many high-quality concubines.

When he saw that some of the concubines were pregnant, he couldn't help but furrow his brows and take a closer look.

As a result, he found that almost all the women in the courtyard were pregnant.

The Second Elder couldn't help but count.

One, two, three... eleven!

After counting the number of pregnant women, the Second Elder was instantly dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that not only did Lu Changsheng take in so many concubines, but they were all pregnant as well.

Is this young man so energetic?

Doesn't he usually cultivate, draw talismans, or work? Does he do other things?

The Second Elder couldn't help but look at Lu Changsheng and asked, "Changsheng, are these all your newly taken concubines? Carrying your children?"

Even though he knew he was asking a redundant question, these women were definitely Lu Changsheng's concubines, carrying Lu Changsheng's children, but he couldn't help but confirm it again.

Mainly because this matter was really outrageous.

For cultivators, matters between men and women would deplete their vital essence and affect their cultivation speed.

Even if they cultivate together with their Dao companions, they are very restrained in this aspect, only occasionally indulging, and it is impossible to do it day and night, excessively indulging.

But Lu Changsheng, in just half a year, directly impregnated eleven women, obviously going overboard.

Lu Miaoge pursed her lips and remained silent.

But in her beautiful eyes, a hint of disappointment couldn't help but show.

In her opinion, if Lu Changsheng was willing to focus on cultivation and specialize in talismans, there would still be hope for him to become a Foundation Building cultivator after becoming a second-tier talisman master.

She had discussed this matter with Lu Changsheng before.

But seeing Lu Changsheng bringing Guan Xin to Jiulongfang City and now having so many concubines, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

She knew that Lu Changsheng hadn't really taken her words to heart.

"Yes, Second Elder, these are all the concubines that Changsheng has newly taken in, carrying my children," Lu Changsheng said, feeling slightly embarrassed.

He also knew that in this world, as a cultivator, it was a bit excessive to have eleven children in just half a year.

Although he didn't feel anything or find it embarrassing most of the time.

But being asked by the Second Elder at this moment still made him feel a bit embarrassed.

After all, the latter is also considered his elder.

Especially since Lu Miaoge is also present.

"Ah."

When the second elder heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

At this moment, he had a deep understanding of Lu Changsheng's reputation on Qingzhu Mountain for marrying wives and having children.

He coughed lightly twice, then said to Lu Changsheng, "Changsheng, beauty is like a wolf and tiger, it can weaken one's will. Occasionally enjoying it and relaxing is natural."

"But don't indulge too much in this aspect, you should still focus your time and energy on cultivation and talisman dao."

The second elder spoke with great seriousness.

This matter is somewhat outrageous, but not too excessive.

After all, it's not appropriate for him to interfere too much in other people's private lives and say too much.

Thinking about it, he decided to inform the fourth elder when he returned, and let the fourth elder advise Lu Changsheng.

Otherwise, in his opinion, if Lu Changsheng continues to indulge without restraint, he will really ruin himself.

If he ruins himself, it will also be a great loss for their Lu family.

"The second elder is right, Changsheng will heed your teachings."

Lu Changsheng responded respectfully.

After all, the other party is considered an elder, so he naturally listens obediently when such matters are mentioned.

As for what to do in the end, it's up to him.

However, Lu Changsheng himself plans to be a bit more restrained and save some money in the coming period of time.

He had previously wanted to buy some robes for his wives and concubines, and some beauty-preserving pills.

But every time he had money, he would spend it, causing him to be unable to save any money.

This time, he didn't have much money to buy slightly more valuable gifts.

"Hmm."

Seeing this, the second elder didn't continue to say much.

Saying too much would only make people resentful.

After that, Lu Changsheng informed Xiaoqing and followed the second elder and Lu Miaoge to the Eastern District of the Lu family's mansion.

They were preparing to return to Qingzhu Mountain together early tomorrow morning.

Arriving at the Eastern District mansion, they were still arranged to stay in the small courtyard they lived in last time.

"Knock knock knock!"

Lu Changsheng was cultivating in the room when he heard a knocking sound at the door.

He got up and opened the door.

"Cheng Ge?"

It was Lu Miaocheng outside the door.

"Changsheng, this is the spirit stones I borrowed from you before."

When Lu Miaocheng saw Lu Changsheng, he directly took out twenty spirit stones and said.

Lu Changsheng was a little surprised.

He didn't expect Lu Miaocheng to come and return the money on his own initiative.

To be honest, he had already considered those twenty spirit stones as gone.

This behavior of the other party really caught him off guard.

"Cheng Ge, you're too polite. It's troublesome for you to come all the way here."

Lu Changsheng smiled and accepted the spirit stones.

He could tell that Lu Miaocheng's mental state had improved a lot now.

It's probably because he hasn't been reading and tasting tea for a while.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to save up the spirit stones.

"It's not troublesome at all, it's been owed for so long."

Lu Miaocheng patted Lu Changsheng's shoulder and said warmly, "Changsheng, Chunmanlou will have a new batch of tea next month. I'll treat you, let's go together."

Lu Changsheng's mouth twitched slightly.

He thought that Cheng Ge had quit, but it seems that he was overthinking.

He couldn't help but wave his hand and said with righteousness, "Cheng Ge, I never go to such places."

"Changsheng, let me tell you, many of these new teas are unopened."

Lu Miaocheng continued.

"No, no, I still won't go."

Lu Changsheng firmly said.

With so many wives, concubines, and maidservants at home, why would he need to go to such places?

It's a waste of money and energy!

With money, he can buy a few maidservants for himself and buy gifts for his wives and children. Isn't that great?

"Alright."

Seeing this, Lu Miaocheng felt that it was tasteless to continue persuading, so he stopped.

Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Miaocheng's back and thought to himself, could it be that Cheng Ge enjoys himself when he wants to, then takes a break and lives a healthy life for a while, and repeats this cycle?

Otherwise, how could he be so weak before, and now he looks normal even though he hasn't quit?

Early the next morning, the second elder led Lu Changsheng and several other members of the Lu family out of the East Gate of Jiulongfang Market.

Then he took out a palm-sized earth-yellow flying boat.

With the activation of mana, the flying boat immediately flew out of his palm and turned into a small boat about a zhang long, with formation patterns drawn both inside and outside the boat.

"Get on."

Lu Changsheng and the others boarded the boat.

The second elder spoke up.

Lu Changsheng boarded the flying boat and found a seat to sit down.

The flying boat had a total of seven seats, and underneath each seat, there were grooves embedded with spirit stones.

He knew that this kind of flying boat could be powered by inserting spirit stones instead of relying on the cultivator's mana. Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve long-distance flight and the consumption would be too great.

"Let's go!"

After everyone sat down, the second elder also boarded the flying boat. He formed hand seals, causing a faint water curtain barrier to rise around the edge of the flying boat. It flew into the air, turning into a streak of light.

"This speed is even faster than the Iron Feather Eagle. If we squeeze a bit, we can fit ten or so people."

Lu Changsheng looked at the speed of the flying boat and thought to himself.

He felt that this thing was really good.

If he had one, it would be much more convenient to bring his wives and concubines back and forth to the Nine Dragon Market in the future.

But the price of such a flying boat would cost at least a thousand spirit stones.

Moreover, the flying boat was relatively conspicuous, and if one had no strength, it would be easy to be targeted on the road.

A day and a half later.

The flying boat landed in front of Qingzhu Mountain.

Everyone disembarked from the flying boat and entered Qingzhu Mountain. Lu Changsheng bid farewell with a cupped fist and headed straight home.

"Husband~"

"Husband is back!"

"Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!"

As soon as Lu Changsheng entered the courtyard, his wives and several little children in the courtyard saw him and joyfully shouted, rushing towards him and hugging him.

This scene made Lu Changsheng smile, filled with warmth. He immediately put down the two children who ran over and took turns hugging all the children.

At the same time, he also hugged a few wives.

Although he had many concubines in the Nine Dragon Market, he lacked the feeling of warmth when facing his wives and children.

He had been getting along with his wives and children here for so many years, and there were many emotions involved.

In no time, Lu Miaoyun, Qu Zhenzhen, and the other women also hugged their children and came to see Lu Changsheng, their eyes filled with tenderness and love.

Lu Changsheng saw the little ones in their arms, who seemed to have grown a bit and were very cute.

Then he looked at the children of Shui'er and Jiuer.

Both children had hair that followed their mother's.

One was red, the other was blue.

But their eyes and pupils were black.

Seeing his two somewhat unconventional children, Lu Changsheng also found them quite cute.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng played with the children and chatted with his wives, listening to them talk about things and sharing some of his own.

At the same time.

In another manor within Qingzhu Valley.

"Second brother, you're saying that Changsheng is in the Nine Dragon Market, and after moving out, he's obsessed with women. Not only did he take in a bunch of concubines, but they're all pregnant? There are more than ten of them?"

The fourth elder heard the second elder's words and was quite surprised, finding it hard to believe.

She was different from the second elder.

Having been in contact with Lu Changsheng for so long, she knew that he liked having children. But she didn't imagine that he would be so obsessed with women.

He was usually very diligent and serious in his cultivation and talisman-making.

But now, hearing the second elder's words, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Because in her opinion, this behavior was indeed a bit excessive.

Back then, when the Lu family was looking for a son-in-law, it took twenty years to require fifty children.

As a result, Lu Changsheng had impregnated eleven women in just over half a year.

If it continued like this, would he still need to cultivate or practice talismans?

"Am I someone who likes to joke around?"

The second elder saw that the fourth elder didn't believe him and immediately said, "At that time, Miaoge was also there and saw it. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Miaoge."

"I can't say much about this matter, but as an elder, you should get closer to Changsheng and talk to him. Also, keep an eye on Miaoyun."

"Otherwise, if this continues, I'm really afraid that he will waste his time on women."

The second elder sighed and said.

What he cared about was not Lu Changsheng taking in concubines.

After all, it was normal for men to be lustful.

It was just that Lu Changsheng's behavior, in his opinion, was a bit too much.

Beauty was like a wolf and tiger, it could erode a person's will!

And Lu Changsheng was young and his will was not firm enough. In this aspect, he might not be able to control himself.

If this continued, a talented talisman cultivator like him might fall.

"Alright, I'll go and see tomorrow, ask Changsheng what's going on."

The fourth elder's face also showed a hint of seriousness as she nodded.

She had a good impression of Lu Changsheng as her grandson-in-law.

She still didn't believe that Lu Changsheng would be completely obsessed with women and neglect his cultivation and talisman-making.

She planned to go and see tomorrow, ask about the situation, and check Lu Changsheng's talisman skills. Then she would know the truth.
