Lu Changsheng witnessed this scene and couldn’t help being speechless.
How is the Second Miss behaving like a child?
The First Miss, although appearing otherworldly, actually has a high EQ and handles interpersonal relationships very well.
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help shaking his head.
He also felt there was no need to take the Second Miss so seriously, and when it was time to apologize, he might as well just do it.
It would be like humoring a little girl, best to just humour her and be done with it.
“Son-in-law, it seems the Second Miss has taken a fancy to you,”
said the maid Xiaoqing giggling as she watched the two of them bicker.
“Nonsense,”
Lu Changsheng flicked Xiaoqing’s pale forehead with his finger.
“It’s true,”
the little maid said, pouting her lips while covering her forehead that had been flicked, knowing her master’s temper.
Lu Changsheng chuckled, feeling that the Second Miss’s behavior was indeed like that of a child trying to catch someone’s attention in a certain way.
He didn’t pay it much mind.
After all, if the Second Miss really took an interest in him, wanting to marry him, he would find it hard to accommodate, not having the energy to pamper her.
Having settled Xiaoqing in the courtyard, Lu Changsheng suddenly thought of a problem.
If the number of his wives, concubines, and maids increased, he might need to consider renting a house in the Marketplace.
After all, this small courtyard only had about a hundred square meters, which was indeed quite small.
And if there were many wives and maids, it would be inconvenient to live together in such a large courtyard.
But for now, with just three people, Lu Changsheng wasn’t in a hurry.
He planned to rent a house in Nine Dragons Market once there were a few more people.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
Lu Changsheng spent his days cultivating, making talismans, and going to work.
Sometimes he’d go shopping with the little maid and maid, and would occasionally invite the First Miss to eat out—life was quite leisurely and comfortable.
One day, Lu Miaocheng came to find Lu Changsheng again.
Lu Changsheng thought he was coming to repay the money.
But unexpectedly, the man was here to ask for a loan again.
There’s a saying, “Borrowing and returning makes for further borrowing not hard, but don’t lend to the desperately poor.”
For someone like Lu Miaocheng, who hadn’t repaid the first loan and was likely borrowing money to indulge in pleasures again, Lu Changsheng naturally would not lend any more.
He stated straightforwardly that he had no money.
Not only did he claim to be out of money, but he also directly pleaded poverty, asking Lu Miaocheng when he would return the Spirit Stones.
Under Lu Changsheng’s acting, Lu Miaocheng could only leave disappointed.
After all, to ordinary people, Lu Changsheng’s income would indeed not amount to much if he had to support so many wives and children.
“He came to borrow money from you? Better to keep your distance from that sort of person. But you two do seem to have something in common, no wonder he came to you for a loan,”
Lu Miaohuan, just returning from work, passed by and saw Lu Miaocheng leaving. Guessing what had happened, she sneered.
“How are we of the same ilk?”
“I, at the very least, have five wives, six concubines, two favored consorts, and three maids. Do I need to go to such places?”
Lu Changsheng, seeing Lu Miaohuan’s expression, snorted in disdain and walked away.
Lu Miaohuan, hearing Lu Changsheng’s words and watching his retreating figure, didn’t know why, but felt her anger rising incessantly, very annoyed.
That night,
After!
Shao Yuyao and Xiaoqing leaned languidly in Lu Changsheng’s embrace.
“My lord, I think I might be pregnant,”
Shao Yuyao said in a soft voice.
“Pregnant?”
Lu Changsheng’s spirits lifted upon hearing this.
There’s a saying that a lone Yin does not produce life, nor does a lone Yang endure, and these days he had been harmonizing Yin and Yang with Shao Yuyao nightly.
Now after such a long time, her being pregnant was natural.
Instantly, he pressed his head to Shao Yuyao’s belly.
He could faintly feel a weak life force gestating.
“Good, good, good!”
Lu Changsheng repeatedly cheered, his face full of delight, and asked, “When did you realize it?”
Shao Yuyao was also a cultivator, with a Qi Refinement level of the Second Level, so it was natural for her to be aware of her own pregnancy.
“It was just a couple of days ago, but at that time I wasn’t sure yet. I only confirmed it today,”
Shao Yuyao said gently.
She knew that her lord particularly adored children.
“Good, from now on take good care of yourself and pay attention to your health.”
“If you need anything for eating or drinking, just let me know,”
Lu Changsheng said.
Now that she was carrying a child, becoming the mother of his child, her status in his heart would naturally rise.
Xiaoqing, seeing this, her watery eyes filled with coquettishness, looked at Lu Changsheng and said in a tender voice, “My lord, I want to bear your child too!”
“Good, good, good, bear one!”
Lu Changsheng drew Xiaoqing close and agreed.
In two months’ time, Lu Miaoyun’s child was due; for Xiaoqing to be pregnant now would be about the right time.
He then rolled over and set about striving for the Great Dao of Immortality!
The next day.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge went to work. Thinking of Shao Yuyao’s pregnancy, he now only had Xiaoqing left by his side.
Previously, he had been concerned about Lu Miaoyun’s pregnancy, which is why he hadn’t allowed Xiaoqing to get pregnant.
Now, without such concerns, he reckoned that under daily Yin and Yang harmonization, it shouldn’t take long for Xiaoqing to conceive as well.
“Should we, perhaps, buy some more maids from White Jade Tower?”
“Now that Yuyao is pregnant, she needs someone to take care of her. If Xiaoqing gets pregnant, she’ll need someone too,”
Lu Changsheng mused inwardly.
He hadn’t really thought that the maids he bought must possess a Spiritual Root.
Indeed, his intent was to practice eugenics, but it was also to do so as much as practicable under the circumstances.
Currently, he clearly did not have the conditions for that.
“However, the first order of business is to earn some Spirit Stones,”
Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly.
The Spirit Stones he had previously earned, spent on magic artifacts, talisman brushes, talisman paper, and spirit ink, together with the expenses incurred in recent times, had almost depleted his reserves.
