C1984 Plum and Bamboo Horse

"Kang Cheng, you, you've grown taller!"

Seeing Kang Cheng enter, Lu Manhan suddenly stood up with a face full of ecstasy. He quickly walked up to him and wanted to hug him, but he awkwardly retracted his hand.

He suddenly realized that they were no longer little Child, they were already young girls, and there was a difference between males and females.

"Big Sister Manhan, you've gotten taller and prettier too!"

Kang Cheng scratched his head in embarrassment as his face slightly flushed. The depths of his eyes were filled with surprise, adoration and deep emotions.

Big Sister, who lived next door to him, had actually become so beautiful. The delicate feelings of love he felt were rippling in the young man's heart.

"Kang Cheng, take a seat!"

Father Lu Family picked up the metal pincers and opened the furnace, causing the fine silver charcoal inside to immediately turn bright red and emit scorching hot vitality.

This' silver charcoal 'was petrified from the burial of ancient silver fir trees. It emitted a scorching energy that was able to resist the onslaught of the cold origin energy and the laws of this place. One had to burn it for an instant or else the house would immediately turn into a pile of ice.

Of course, the price was also extremely expensive. Half of Lu Family's income, was spent on this.

"Child, eat!"

Lu Family, Mom also brought in some ginger tea and refreshments.

"Thank you, uncles and aunts!"

After chatting for a while, the distance between them had gradually narrowed.

Kang Cheng was most curious about what the outside world was like, constantly asking questions, showing the unique curiosity of a teenager.

Lu Manhan slowly narrated. He spoke of the magnificent capital, the bustling life, and the innumerable friar. This made Kang Cheng envious.

The more he listened, the more excited he became. He clenched his fists and said, "Tonight I want to talk to my father about this. I want to leave Giant Stone City for the Capital. I want to go to a bigger world and have a look."

Only, Lu Manhan did not say that she already had a Cultivation Level of the Foundation Building.

Because she knew Kang Cheng had always wanted to cultivate.

Only, they didn't have the chance to enter any Sect, nor did they have the chance to enter the Imperial Academy.

Because the Empire didn't have any academies!

The old systems of the empire were not replaced by those of the heirs.

Home world, not country world.

The imperial power was weak. The six divisions of the imperial court and the official positions they had set up were equivalent to representative offices. They had no power to enforce the law in the territory of the dukes.

The school that targeted The civilian population did not even exist.

The lower level citizens' paths to advancement were almost completely blocked.

Not everyone was so lucky to be able to find a job in a Marquis' Mansion and get close to friar like him. In addition, this duke had a good temper and was benevolent. He didn't pay any attention to his own cultivation and just let him go as he pleased.

Only the rise of Sage Sage State Advisor Si Qing gave her a sliver of hope.

Because he was also friar, who was outside the river.

Many of the river outside friar is in the wind, Wu steel will promote a series of favorable to the river outside friar's New Deal. Moreover, some have been introduced.

"You just came back, I'll treat you to a meal! Let's go to the Pine Crane Restaurant! "

When the sky gradually turned dark, Kang Cheng suddenly stood up and smiled as he invited them.

"Pine Crane Restaurant? So expensive! This Child, your dad earned a few small coins from hunting, it's not easy, so don't waste it! "

Father Lu Family immediately stopped them, and chattered on: "I am cooking, cooking a chicken, and also have Snow Lotus Cuisine. A while ago, your father also brought a deer leg over, and I made some cured meat, steamed it, and then cooked another good dish.

"This, this..."

Kang Cheng's face turned red when he heard this, and he became flustered, as he was stuck in a dilemma.

Deep down, he wanted to treat Lu Manhan to a meal. There were many who wanted to ask her and many who wanted to tell her.

Moreover, the money he used was earned by him working hard outside, and it wasn't given to him by his father.

However, he was indeed a loyal, filial, and righteous Child. He knew that in order to maintain his family's life, his father would often suffer hardships.

Should he eat at home?

"Old man, are you confused?" Haven't you seen enough of that orange face of yours in Kangcheng? With what do you have to eat! "Let's go out and eat!"

Mother Lu suddenly pinched her wife and scolded her.

"Oh, oh, oh, right. It's been a few years since you and your sister met. Lu Family old man also immediately understood and laughed.

Mother Lu called Daughter into the inner room and took out a small bag containing a few pieces of low-ranked crystal. "My daughter, please don't let Kang Cheng spend money on you. He has been helping us out a lot all these years." This money, take it, it should be enough for a meal!

"Mom, I have money!"

Lu Manhan quickly tried to shirk him.

"The capital's living expenses are huge. Moreover, we are the household registration of the rogue cultivators outside the river. The pay is different for the same work, so your salary is low. Do you think you can save up money?"

his mother asked, worried.

The Royal Family was the most expensive place, followed by the dukes. Below them were the civil officials and military generals, The civilian population!

But all the natives were higher than friar!

In the household register, all the rogue cultivators and those within five generations of the First Generation River expressed that even though they were engaged in the same job as friar, the reward they got for the same work was usually only one-third of the latter, or even less!

"At least in the capital, now that we have registered as an outsider, we can already get equal pay for equal work!"

Lu Manhan was half happy, half mocking as he said:

"Besides, the duke I serve is also someone who sees the wind and acts according to the wind." In order to curry favor with State Advisor, before the holidays, my salary from the previous few years was also raised by several times and I made it all. Right now, I have tens of thousands of low rank crystal on me! "

"So much money!"

Mother Lu immediately fell into ecstasy and shock. Then, she grabbed Daughter's Sleeve and asked in confusion, "But, why do you think that the Lord Marquis, in order to please State Advisor, gave you a reward?"

"Hey!" Because of that Sir State Advisor, he is a rogue cultivator outside the river, rumored to be from Black Sun Star Domain! "

Lu Manhan said with a complacent smile, "And we are also from the Black Sun Star Domain. If the Marquis saw State Advisor, wouldn't State Advisor be happy to see such a good arrangement? After all, this Marquis has taken care of his' fellow countryman '! "

"Ah!" Was there really such an incredible genius in our Black Sun Star Domain? Unexpectedly... that took over State Advisor's position!

Mother Lu was immediately shocked.

"I just gave some of the meat to this leopard cat, but she didn't eat it. "What a picky eater, I can't even bear to eat it myself, I'm going to pour it all in wine!"2

When Lu Manhan turned to leave, he heard his father grumbling.

"He's human. He probably wants to eat the good dishes of the Songtao Pavilion!"

Lu Manhan picked up the big white leopard cat, walked towards the door, and laughed as he said, "Look at it, it looks smooth and oily. It's obvious that it came from a rich family. To him, the legs of a deer are too unpalatable! "

"T-this is the invitation for your honorable lord to come back!"

Behind him, his father let out a helpless sigh.
