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

The facade of Jade Meal Pavilion appeared quite ordinary, decorated with simple and modest elegance, not as impressive as the Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop.

But the business inside was booming, not even mealtime yet, and it was already more than half full.

After finding a place to sit down, Lu Miaoge ordered two dishes and two servings of Spirit Rice from the server.

Seeing this, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but smile, “Sister Miaoge, there’s no need to be frugal on my account, I’ve managed to save some Spirit Stones over the years.”

His living conditions had improved over the past six months.

As a result, he had saved quite a few Spirit Stones.

Before heading out, he counted them, a total of three hundred and six.

He left thirty Spirit Stones at home for family expenses, and brought the rest with him.

So treating Lu Miaoge to a meal didn’t mean he had to pinch pennies.

“Two dishes are enough for us to eat, more would be a waste,”

Lu Miaoge said with a light smile.

Over the last six months, they had become quite familiar with each other while studying Talisman Making under the Fourth Elder.

That light smile of hers was no longer distant as it was initially, just a polite smile, appearing much more natural.

“Alright,”

Lu Changsheng replied, not saying much else.

It wasn’t long before the server brought a basin-sized water lily to their table.

The water lily bud opened on its own, revealing two dishes and two bowls of crystal-clear Spirit Rice inside, steaming hot and emanating a fragrant aroma.

“This ‘Carp Soup’ is their signature dish, made with ‘Red Blood Carp’ from the ‘Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain’. I order it every time I come here, you should try it,”

Lu Miaoge pointed out, referring to a dish that was a feast for the senses.

“Red Blood Carp from the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain? Is this restaurant owned by the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain?”

Lu Changsheng asked in surprise upon hearing this.

The Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain was also a major cultivation family under the jurisdiction of the Qingyun Sect.

With three Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators in their family, they were one level above the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain.

The Red Blood Carp was a specialty of Bi Lake Mountain.

It was somewhat similar to the Green Jade Bamboo Wine and Emerald Spirit Rice of Qingzhu Mountain.

“The owner of this restaurant married a woman from the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain, which is why they can consistently get a batch of Red Blood Carp from the Yu Family every month,”

Lu Miaoge explained softly.

“I see,”

Lu Changsheng nodded, not asking further, and sampled the Carp Soup.

Immediately, he felt a rich yet not greasy delicious taste spread from his mouth to his stomach, then to his abdomen, and finally to his brain, leaving a long-lasting aftertaste.

“Delicious!”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

He thought he had become accustomed to exotic delicacies at the Lu Family, but this Carp Soup was indeed exceptional.

“So the chef here is also a Spirit Cooking Master?”

Lu Changsheng inquired.

While the Red Blood Carp was a type of spirit fish, such flavor couldn’t be achieved without a Spirit Cooking Master.

“Correct, the chef here is the owner of the restaurant, and he is a Spirit Cooking Master.

“The prices here are more affordable compared to other places, so the business is always good,”

Lu Miaoge said in a soft voice.

She then pointed to the other dish, “This ‘Earth Mole Meat’ also tastes excellent and counts as one of their specialties.”

Lu Changsheng tried a piece of the meat, finding it crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, juicy, smooth, and invigorating, and he couldn’t help but reach for another piece.

Nodding in approval, he said, “Tasty.”

At that moment, he noticed Lu Miaoge wasn’t eating but was simply watching him enjoy his meal.

He promptly said, “Sister Miaoge, why aren’t you eating? Let’s eat together.”

“Okay,”

Lu Miaoge nodded gently, and only then did she pick up her chopsticks and begin to eat the Earth Mole Meat.

Her manner of eating was very elegant, yet she ate quite swiftly.

Lu Changsheng had only had a few bites when she had already eaten seven or eight.

By the time Lu Changsheng had eaten less than half of his bowl of rice, Lu Miaoge was finished.

“Uh…”

Lu Changsheng was somewhat astonished at this sight.

Hard to believe that Lu Miaoge, a woman as ethereal as a fairy, could eat at such a pace.

“I normally eat quite fast…”

Lu Miaoge, feeling somewhat impolite and embarrassed, blushed on her flawlessly exquisite face.

“It’s fine, it’s fine, it’s just that I’m a slow eater,”

Lu Changsheng chuckled, feeling that the young lady before him suddenly seemed even more charming and much more approachable.

Indeed, there are not so many pristinely untouchable fairy maidens in the world,

it’s just that the great difference between two people makes one seem unattainable, creating such a perception, an illusion.

When the relationship becomes intimate and you spend time together, things turn out to be quite normal.

He immediately gestured for the server to add two more dishes and some more rice.

“No need, I’m full,”

Lu Miaoge said upon seeing this, taking out a handkerchief to gently wipe her mouth.

“Alright,”

Lu Changsheng replied, not insisting, and then finished the rest of the food and went to pay the bill.

Two dishes and two servings of Spirit Rice came to a total of four Spirit Stones.

No wonder Lu Miaoge only ordered two dishes, because indeed the price was somewhat expensive.

When he first joined the Lu Family, he earned only two Spirit Stones a month.

Now he’d spent four Spirit Stones on a single meal.

However, Lu Changsheng wasn’t too heartbroken about it.

He felt the price was fairly reasonable.

The Carp Soup and Earth Mole Meat were both Spirit Food, and even the rice was Spirit Rice, which would be nourishing to the body after eating.

He could still feel the Spiritual Energy flowing slowly through his Dantian and meridians.

And besides, the process of savoring delicious food was deeply satisfying, very pleasant.

Just then, having seen how adorable Lu Miaoge ate, he thought that in the future, when there was no pressing matter, he might often invite Lu Miaoge out to eat, to build a closer relationship.

But now, thinking it over, he decided against it.

His current financial situation simply didn’t allow for it.

Maybe after he had sold all his Talismans and turned them into Spirit Stones, it would have been more feasible.

“Sister Miaoge, is there a place in the Nine Dragons Market where Loose Cultivators set up stalls for trading?”
