Siheyuan: The wife was intercepted after returning from the battlefield

Yamashita Ayako smiled charmingly and said, "Okay, I understand, Master."

After a simple meal, Shenmu Lixiang couldn't wait to take Lin Ping to Shenmu Naizi's room.

At this time, the little girl was lying on the bed helplessly. Seeing Shenmu Lixiang and the master of the family coming in, she struggled to get up and said, "Hello, master of the family."

Shenmu Lixiang supported her sister and told her the whole story, "Naizi, are you willing to become your husband's divine concubine?"

Although Shenmu Naizi was young, she and her sister had gone through so many hardships, how could she be a child who knew nothing? She knew that this was a ray of hope her sister had begged for her, so she knelt on the ground and saluted, saying, "Naizi greets my husband."

Seeing such a young child calling her husband "husband", Lin Ping waved his hand and said, "You can call me brother, it will make us feel closer."

Shen Mu Naizi nodded obediently and said, "Okay, brother."

Lin Ping looked at Shenmu Lixiang and said, "You know that the contract requires dual cultivation as a bridge, but Naizi is too young, so first take a longevity pill to increase her lifespan by 100 years, and then we will complete the contract when she comes of age."

Shenmu Lixiang nodded and said, "Okay, we will all listen to our husband."

Lin Ping told the story of his time in China again, and the Shenmu sisters also learned that Lin Ping had many women over there. However, the women of Sakura Country have always worshipped strong men, not to mention Lin Ping, who was comparable to a god. Therefore, the two women had no resistance in their hearts, and they thought it was normal for such a strong man to have more women. Besides, all the nobles and rich people here have many wives and concubines.

Linping took out a longevity pill and asked Shenmu Naizi to take it. Soon Shenmu Naizi recovered his health, and his blood and qi were as rosy as other healthy children.

When Yamashita Ayako saw Shenmu Naizi again, she was shocked. She knew that Shenmu Naizi had leukemia, but is the lively and lovely Naizi still the child who was about to die of illness?

So he asked in shock, "Lixiang, is your sister's illness cured?"

Upon hearing this, Shenmu Lixiang turned her eyes away from her sister who was playing in the yard, looked at Yamashita Ayako and said, "Sister Ayako, my sister's illness is cured, but you must keep this a secret, otherwise if it gets out, my husband will not be able to rest in peace."

Yamashita Ayako was stunned when she heard this. She was not an idiot. Of course she knew what it meant to be able to cure leukemia. Once the dignitaries knew about this, they would definitely treat Lin Ping as a guest of honor. At that time, it would be impossible for Lin Ping to live a quiet life. After a while, she came to her senses and said, "Okay, I understand."

But her eyes were looking towards the room where Lin Ping was, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Shen Mu Naizi smiled and said, "Why, have you discovered the good of your husband?"

Yamashita Ayako looked at Shenmu Rika's teasing eyes, her pretty face blushed and she said, "Rika, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm just curious why the master of the family has such good medical skills and why he hides them. Isn't this a better way to make friends with dignitaries?"

Shenmu Lixiang knew that her husband was a god, so why would he care about the false reputation of mortals? So she smiled and said, "Sister Ayako, I can't tell you the real reason. It's up to you to find out. Of course, if Sister Ayako could marry my husband, she would know the truth. Now I can only say that my husband is not short of money, and he likes a quiet life."

Yamashita Ayako heard this and thought to herself, what does Shenmu Lixiang mean? Is she saying that my master is not an ordinary person? But even if the master is not an ordinary person, she will not flatter him. After all, if she wants to marry a rich man, she will not become a housekeeper. So she smiled and said, "Since the master wants to live a peaceful life, then I, the housekeeper, will keep my mouth shut."

Looking at Yamashita Ayako's departing back, Kamiki Rika secretly thought that Sister Ayako had good character and might be able to become the final candidate for the Divine Consort, but it still depended on her husband's intentions.

As for the thirty-six divine servants that her husband mentioned, she had already made a decision. Since they were divine servants, she could not let her husband down and she had to select the most beautiful women to be the servants. This would not only help her husband improve his cultivation, but also protect the safety of his wife and children.

However, selecting thirty-six top beauties is not an easy task, and it takes time to complete.

After dinner in the evening, Shenmu Lixiang and Lin Ping finished their double cultivation. Shenmu Lixiang lay in Lin Ping's arms and asked, "Husband, there are no requirements for the character of the divine servants, right?"

Lin Ping nodded and said, "Although I still have all my memories after becoming a divine servant, I am the master in my heart, which is no different from a puppet. So my character is not important. Why are you asking these questions?"

Shenmu Lixiang smiled and said, "My husband, this is what I thought. I plan to select all 36 divine servants to be women. This way, they can help my husband practice and protect the safety of the inner house more conveniently. It is simply killing two birds with one stone. Since there is no requirement for character, I will spend money to get 36 top-quality divine servants."

Lin Ping was stunned when he heard this. He had never thought that a divine servant could do this. However, if he thought about it carefully, he would definitely feel uncomfortable using a grown man to protect his wife and daughter. He thought that the women of Sakura Country were sensible and would think about their husbands wholeheartedly as long as they got married. So he smiled and said, "Okay, do whatever you want."

However, Shenmu Lixiang wanted to use money to recruit thirty-six divine servants, which would be a huge expense. He did not intend to sell the gold here, after all, the price of gold would rise in the future. So he said to Shenmu Lixiang: "I will give you some tea leaves, you can sell them, and use the money to recruit divine servants."

The next morning.

Shenmu Lixiang came to Yamashita Ayako's room with a rosy complexion and said, "Sister Ayako, do you have time? I want to ask you something."

Yamashita Ayako smiled and said, "Rika, tell me what it is and I'll see if I can help you."

Shenmu Lixiang smiled but didn't say anything. Instead, she took a bag of tea leaves and came to the teapot to start making tea.

Although Yamashita Ayako didn't understand why Shenmu Rika didn't say anything but went to make tea, she still waited quietly for what happened. But when the aroma of tea wafted out, Yamashita Ayako became nervous. She had worked as a housekeeper in a wealthy man's house and had seen all kinds of good tea, but this tea was not ordinary. Not only did it have an elegant fragrance, but it also made people feel relaxed and happy at the first smell.

Seeing Yamashita Ayako in a daze, Kamiki Rika smiled and said, "Sister Ayako, try this tea first, and then we can talk about things." Then she handed Ayako a cup of tea.

Yamashita Ayako took the tea and put it to her nose and smelled it. Immediately, all the fatigue in her body disappeared. When the tea leaves tasted slightly bitter but sweet, a warm current flowed through her body. She couldn't help but moan in comfort.

After being shocked, her pretty face turned red, and she felt ashamed for the sound she just made, but she still suppressed her shame and asked, "Lixiang, what kind of tea is this?"

Kamiki Rika smiled and said, "Sister Ayako, please give me an evaluation."

Yamashita Ayako was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and she didn't know how to describe this tea. Finally, she could only sigh: "I have never seen such a magical tea. If nothing else, its effect of relieving fatigue is priceless. If I have to give an explanation, I can only say that this tea is not like something from this world."

Shenmu Lixiang smiled and said, "It's true that it's not something from the human world, but first tell me how much this tea can be sold for?"

Yamashita Ayako was puzzled and asked, "Lixiang, whoever gets this kind of tea would treasure it well, how could they possibly sell it?"

Shenmu Lixiang had naturally seen the vast sea of ​​tea in the Kingdom of God, so she smiled and said, "These tea leaves are priceless treasures in the eyes of ordinary people, but they are nothing in the eyes of my husband. You should first tell me how much this tea is worth."

Yamashita Ayako naturally heard something from Shenmu Lixiang. This tea is not an ordinary thing? Is the owner of the family not an ordinary person? Now Yamashita Ayako's mind is a mess.

Seeing that Yamashita Ayako was in a daze, Shenmu Rika pushed her and said, "Sister Ayako, what are you thinking about? You haven't answered my question yet."

Yamashita Ayako came back to her senses and asked blankly: "Rika, what did you say?"

Shenmu Lixiang was annoyed when she heard this: "I mean, what is the value of this tea if we sell it?"

Yamashita Ayako asked in return: "Rika, is the master of the family in need of money?"

Shenmu Lixiang thought about what she wanted to do and nodded, "It's just that we are short of money."

Yamashita Ayako thought about it and said, "If that's the case, we can go to the auction house. With the miraculous effects of the tea, we will definitely be able to sell it for a good price."

Upon hearing this, Shenmu Rika nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the Kyoto Auction House." Then she told Yamashita Ayako about the real benefits of tea.

Noon, Kyoto Auction House.

Ayako Yamashita had worked as a housekeeper and naturally knew the auction house procedures. After negotiating with the staff for a few words, a middle-aged man came to talk to Ayako Yamashita.

When he learned that Yamashita Ayako was going to auction tea leaves, he looked at Yamashita Ayako and the veiled Kamiki Rika with a strange look in his eyes and said, "Auction of tea leaves? Are you two ladies kidding me?"

Yamashita Ayako knew this would happen, so she explained in a low voice: "Our tea can prolong life if you drink it regularly. If Mr. Mitsui doesn't believe it, you can try it yourself."

Mitsui looked at Yamashita Ayako's confident eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, since you said so, I will give you a chance. If it is really as you said, there will be an auction this afternoon."

The three of them came to an elegant room. Mitsui stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation. Yamashita Ayako took out the tea and started the performance without hesitation.

After tasting the tea, Mitsui was shocked and said, "Even if this tea can extend life, its refreshing effect alone is very valuable. If it can really extend life, the price will definitely increase dramatically."

Yamashita Ayako smiled and said, "Whether it can prolong your life, Mr. Mitsui can feel it, right?"

Mitsui smiled awkwardly when he heard this. He said this just to see if he could buy it privately and give it to the elders of the family. Seeing that his little trick was exposed, he said, "Okay, then add this tea to the auction this afternoon."

Yamashita Ayako smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mitsui."

Mitsui smiled and said, "Then the two ladies go to the VIP room to rest first. I will ask someone to call the two ladies when the auction starts."

Watching the two girls leave, Mitsui called a waiter and said, "Go check the origins of those two girls."

The waiter nodded and turned away.

The auction officially began in the afternoon. Yamashita Ayako and Kamiki Rika sat in their seats waiting for the auction to begin.

It didn't take long before the auction of some antique medicinal herbs and other precious items was completed. The last item was brought up. Everyone saw that it was a small box and they were curious about what was inside.
