Chapter 14 The ancestral jade pendant

Murong was beaten to death, and Mister Yang, who was in her mind omnipotent, was actually very poor.

After all, Yang Lu's 40 yuan manuscript fee has not been covered, and he has already spent a full 4 yuan. There may be many places to spend money in the future, and I don't know what to wait for the next paper invitation. At that time, he was really reluctant to spend any more money to open a separate room for Murong.

As the saying goes, money is a hero's guts. Even Yang Lu, when he has no money, will be inexplicably less confident in his speech.

Fortunately, Seacliff Pavilion is worthy of being a 5-Star level hotel in the culture world. The room with more than two yuan Spirit Stone Coin is even a suite, which avoids a male and a female together alone. of embarrassment.

As for the accommodation conditions of the guest rooms, Yang Lu, a financial elite who is used to staying in 5-Star level hotels, can't fault it.

Although the guest room adopts the traditional oriental interior design as a whole, it perfectly integrates the convenience of a modern bedroom. The classical style reveals a modern sense, and it is elegant but not livable. The bedding is also made of real silk. Woven, full of soft and comfortable fleece padding, and the sanitation is spotless.

What's even more surprising is that the lighting inside the suite turned out to be the legendary Spiritual Qi lamp!

This Spiritual Qi lamp has no wire and lampshade at all, but is suspended in midair like a light ball. The giant Great Immortal formation was created out of thin air. Looking at the entire Seacliff City, only the Seacliff Pavilion has such a luxurious interior configuration.

Spiritual Qi is the most precious thing in the entire cultivation world.

Making the convenience of Spiritual Qi accessible to mortals, this Seacliff Pavilion room is truly worthy of its hefty price tag.

As soon as Yang Lu entered the house, he studied Spiritual Qi light for half an hour, clicking one's tongue in wonder while studying, and seeing that the newspaper-selling girl Murong has some unfathomable mystery, just treat it as senior Some quirk of the expert.

Although Yang Lu wanted to show off his gentlemanly demeanor and let Murong sleep on the big bed in the back room of the suite, the girl who sold the newspaper did not agree, and insisted that he would sleep on the floor of the outhouse until Yang Lu deliberately placed it. When she appeared to be angry, she reluctantly agreed to sleep on the sofa in the outhouse. But seeing how she was sitting on the sofa with only half of her buttocks, for fear of soiling the sofa, it was obvious that such luxurious accommodation had a huge impact on the heart of the newspaper girl!

Looking at Murong's dirty hair, Yang Lu could see that the newspaper girl probably hadn't taken a shower for a long time.

After rummaging, he finally found two ancient-style robes resembling bathrobes in the guest room.

After forcing the bathrobe into Murong's arms, he instructed Murong to take a good bath first. The newspaper girl originally planned to refuse, but in the end, Yang Lu said, "If you are not good. Taking a shower, it looks uncomfortable to me." I was convinced.

After changing into a bathrobe and waiting in the living room for more than ten minutes, the sound of water in the bathroom gradually stopped, and then Yang Lu saw the newspaper seller timidly walk out.

At this time, the girl also took off her blue cloth shirt and changed into the high-end bathrobe from Seacliff Pavilion.

Although her face still looks immature, it may be the reason why she has been running around all year round. After bathing, her already flattering face became even more handsome. Although her skin was slightly darker, her pretty nose, plump lips, and big black eyes looked very cute. Even Yang Lu has an amazing feeling of seeing the flowers of the middle school class.

The unscrupulous capitalists in this cultivation world are also the masters who help eat people without spitting up their bones. They even let such a beautiful and lovely girl run out to sell newspapers on a snowy day. Is this still a human thing? ?

Seeing that Mister Yang was staring at her, the newspaper saleswoman thought there was something wrong with her clothes, so her face became hot, she turned her body shyly, and then quickly ran to the back room and said : "Mister Yang, I'll help you clean up the house!"

Seeing Murong hugging the dirty clothes he had changed, and swiftly running to the bathroom to wash his hands and feet, Yang Lu couldn't help but secretly sighed. It is said that modern girls are exposed to a lot of things and eat well, so they mature prematurely. But compared to Murong, a child from a poor family, the modern girls in Earth are just precocious, they are just giant babies who have been forced to ripen.

I don't know how Murong, a fatherless little girl, has survived all these years.

Thinking of this, Yang Lu couldn't help but ask: "Murong, you said you didn't have parents since you were young, who gave you the name?"

cultivation world is the same as the ancient Earth Similarly, naming is a privilege that only the middle class can enjoy.

It is said that when New China was just liberated, in order to check the background of the farmers, the investigation team went directly to the ancestral halls of the farmers to check the ancestral tablets. All ancestors with names were at least from middle peasants. Those whose ancestors do not have names, or whose ancestors are named "Wang Chacha" and "Liu Quanquan" are from poor peasant backgrounds.

Compared with the previous situation of a large number of false reports, this investigation method is accurate Incredibly high.

The principle of this is very simple.

In ancient China, no matter how poor the peasants were, they would worship ancestral tablets, but the tablets must have names, so if their ancestors were too poor and had no money to find scholar names, they could only use symbols such as circles and crosses. Write it on the tablet instead.

The situation in the cultivation world is very similar. Most of the homeless people Yang Lu saw in the shelter were people with no names but nicknames.

A strange man with a name and a surname like him who also went to live in a homeless shelter surprised the shelter staff for a long time, thinking that he was here to find fault on purpose.

Yang Lu just realized that Murong, a newspaper saleswoman, has her own name, which is very abnormal in itself.

Suddenly being asked this question, Murong's hands suddenly froze while washing the clothes. But she already trusts Yang Lu very much now, but after hesitating for a moment, she ran into the clothes she had changed and groped, and then took out a stone that looked like jade but not jade from her closest clothes.

As a private equity fund manager, what Yang Lu does most often is to deal with rich people, and naturally he also understands some basic common sense of jade stone antiques. He can judge the moment he sees this piece of jade, it is absolutely Not a good jade!

It's like a poor-quality jade stone picked up from the beach, and it's worthless at all.

Murong cautiously held the jade stone and came to Yang Lu, pointed to the jade stone and said, "This is my name!"

Yang Lu took a closer look and found this jade The surface of the stone is crookedly engraved with two big characters - Murong.

Although Yang Lu doesn't know much about the calligraphy of this cultivation world, he can also see that the jade stone lettering is indeed a bit stretched. Children's naughty doodles!

If you don't know in advance that the word is "Murong", I'm afraid the ordinary person won't recognize it at all.

Seeing Yang Lu's astonished expression, Murong said with some regret: "I took this jade stone with me when I was born, but I have never met my parents, so I just take care of myself. It's called Murong..."

Hearing this, Yang Lu had already determined that Murong was just an ordinary poor girl.

No big family would use such inferior jade stone, write such crotch-pulling calligraphy, and then use it as a family heirloom for their descendants, which is totally unreasonable.

Thinking of this, Yang Lu also sighed slightly:

After the protagonist of the Earth web article traveled through, not only did he take cheat with him, but he also picked up the stray Princess in minutes and arrived at his place. On the other hand, it has become a second venture based on his own abilities.

It seems that he is really just an ordinary luck!

However, this discovery made Yang Lu feel more pity for the newspaper girl.

Seeing Yang Lu's eyes scrutinizing herself all the time, Murong's face couldn't help but feel a little hot, and she didn't know how to talk to him, so she stammered: "Mister Yang, I haven't finished washing your clothes for you. , I'll go to work first!"

After saying that, he ran away and hid back to the bathroom.
