#407 - Chapter 406 Rules and Ways
“Hehe…”
Books, or no books, it doesn't matter!
At least, not for now!
When you lose something, you always gain something!
This is the life motto that defines his destiny!
The more he's told not to do something, the more he wants to do it!
My dad can touch my mom because they're husband and wife.
You're my wife too, so I should be able to as well.
Zhao Ling'er felt like she'd been tricked, especially when she saw the smile on Chu Tianran's face.
Forget it, forget it, I've already been touched once. If I really become his wife in the future, he might even try out everything in 'The Plum in the Golden Vase'…
Casually blowing away the dust, Chu Tianran felt a little regretful.
He was actually very curious about what they looked like…
“Give me your hand, I…”
“No, I want to do it myself. If you control my hand, I won't feel anything.”
“No way!”
“Then I'm not talking to you anymore, unless you get the book back!”
Zhao Ling'er: “……”
She really was tricked, wasn't she!
She silently turned around, not saying a word.
Chu Tianran hugged her from behind, searching for the clasp of her clothing, and then…
Ah, as expected, it's the same as last time…
It feels even better than last time.
“Can I touch them while I sleep?”
“If you say another word, I'm going to hit you. Sleep!”
What's there to ask!
Did I say a word when you started getting handsy!
Even if you touch them while you sleep, what can I say!
Hearing this, Chu Tianran was a little scared, but Zhao Ling'er didn't push him away, right…
Then he'll just continue…
That night, Chu Tianran studied them very, very seriously.
This thing, Little Bing doesn't have.
And Zhao Ling'er's talent was indeed very good.
The next morning, Zhao Ling'er opened her eyes.
Her chest was exposed, and there was a head pressing against it, drooling on her chest.
She almost collapsed and directly pried Chu Tianran's head away!
Unbelievable!
So dirty, full of drool!
She immediately cast a Body Immobilization spell, which alleviated it somewhat!
Who drools in their sleep!
Chu Tianran got up blankly.
“It's morning…”
Zhao Ling'er put on her clothes, looking at him with a disgusted expression.
“If you drool again next time, don't hug me to sleep, it's so dirty!”
“I can't control that…”
“I'm hungry, Ling'er. Let's go eat that stew, and after we eat, I'll take you to make money.”
“You're still thinking about making money?”
She thought Chu Tianran was joking, but she didn't expect that Chu Tianran was indeed thinking about it?
“Of course, I'm definitely thinking about it. After all, you spent a lot of money yesterday. How can a guy let a girl spend money!”
He put on his clothes, got up, and immediately perked up!
Then he leaned over.
“Ling'er, hug…”
Zhao Ling'er sighed helplessly.
Like this, how does he look like someone who can make money…
He's like a child, likes to touch people's chests while sleeping, and even drools. He's not even tall.
She turned around, went out, and went downstairs.
“Esteemed guest, will you be staying again today?”
“No, we're not.”
Zhao Ling'er replied casually, but suddenly paused, and couldn't help but look at the waiter.
She only saw that the waiter was listless, pale, with dark circles under his eyes…
She pulled Chu Tianran away.
“Esteemed guests, take care, come again when you have time!”
A weak voice came.
Luckily, she didn't let Chu Tianran see this, otherwise Chu Tianran would be ruined!
If a young person sees this, what will become of them when they grow up?
They went out, had a bowl of stew, and Chu Tianran looked satisfied!
“I feel uncomfortable all over if I don't eat this for a day!”
“Let's go, let's go make money!”
“Where are we going to make money?”
“Hehe, haven't you heard that the town's county government is being renovated? Isn't this a good opportunity to make money?”
“When did you hear that?”
“Oh, I heard passersby talking about it when I passed by. They've been renovating for a while now. You probably didn't notice it. Let's go, I'll take you there.”
The county government is being renovated?
Can you make money in that place?
Moreover, the county government, whether for ordinary people or cultivators…
…is a place with a strong sense of foreboding.
In such a place, celestial cultivators don't dare to mess with ordinary soldiers, even if they have no cultivation!
But they might be able to call someone to kill you. If you dare to mess around, you'll die the next day!
Zhao Ling'er immediately said she wouldn't go, but Chu Tianran smiled and comforted her.
“Don't worry, you're definitely more familiar with the mountain village, but I'm definitely more familiar with this kind of place.”
Asking for directions along the way, they left the town and arrived at the county seat.
Sure enough, there were many laborers and cultivators here, renovating the county government mansion. Jiangzhou was a relatively wealthy territory of the former Great Zhou Dynasty, so the county government's renovation was naturally even more magnificent.
Zhao Ling'er had a sixth-realm cultivation, which was already very high, but at a glance, there were at least dozens of people whose cultivation she couldn't see through!
Such people were working as coolies, helping to move stones…
While she was stunned, Chu Tianran had already arrived in front of the soldiers.
“I want to see your local official and write a calligraphy piece for you. It just so happens that the county government is being renovated, so I just need to borrow a pen and ink to write a poem.”
Zhao Ling'er's expression changed, and she hurriedly stepped forward to pull him away, but the soldiers immediately looked over in confusion.
“You can write calligraphy?”
“Of all the calligraphy and paintings in the world, those who surpass me are but a handful.”
“Heh, you're young but your tone is not small. In that case, come in with us, but if you don't write well, don't blame us for not giving you a chance if the magistrate beats you.”
“Of course.”
Zhao Ling'er looked bewildered.
Ah?
He just went in like that?
Seeing this, Chu Tianran smiled and explained: “County governments or local government offices usually have a system when they're renovated, which is to invite literati and poets to write calligraphy. Sometimes, high-ranking officials and nobles will also come to send calligraphy, which adds to the prestige. This is a common practice of local government offices in the Great Qian Dynasty. Although I'm young, as long as I boast, they'll definitely want to see what I can do, and they won't hold it against me. If I write well, there will be a considerable fee for the writing, which is an unspoken rule.”
“Forget it, I'll take you inside and you'll know. I've written calligraphy for the residences of many high-ranking officials in the capital. You'll understand later.”
