Text Chapter 266: Mother’s Dignity

After explaining it to her, Miao Yi took out a jade certificate and gave it to her, "Take the name card to the Chamber of Commerce and invite Luo Ping to come."

"Yes!" Lin Pingping took the name card and left quickly.

The Chamber of Commerce where Luo Ping worked was at the foot of the mountain. After a while, he followed Lin Pingping and exchanged greetings.

After learning of Miao Yi's intention, Luo Ping was a little amused and thought that Miao Yi had a big business to take care of him, and he asked him to come to the door for such a small matter.

"I just want to try it out to see if it works." Miao Yi's words made Luo Ping lose his temper.

Since you are here, just do it. It's a small matter and it's easy to do.

Miao Yi just needs to explain the limit of the withdrawal for Lin Pingping and leave the receipt. Lin Pingping also needs to put the seal on the receipt to prevent someone from impersonating her to withdraw things in the future.

If Miao Yi doesn't want Lin Pingping to withdraw things from the Chamber of Commerce again, he can say it at any point in the Chamber of Commerce, and the message will be fed back, and Lin Pingping's withdrawal from the Chamber of Commerce will be stopped in time.

Although the amount given is not much, Miao Yi will not let Lin Pingping take out all the annual remuneration at once. What if you take the remuneration but do nothing? It is better to withdraw it month by month, at least there is a limit.

After the matter was settled, Lin Pingping went to the Chamber of Commerce with Luo Ping again. When she came back, Lin Pingping brought back two Lingjiu for communication.

There is a circle of colored feathers on the neck of the Lingjiu that are different from other parts of the body, commonly known as Lingyu, which is also the most magical part of the Lingjiu. As long as you pull out a Lingyu feather from its neck and take it away, no matter where you are, it can sense the general direction and find you. So it has become the best tool for communication.

The price of the Lingjiu is also determined by the number of Lingyu feathers on its neck. If the Lingyu feathers on the neck are all pulled out. It will lose its value and no one will buy or sell it.

Miao Yi and Lin Pingping each pulled out a Lingyu feather from the necks of the two Lingjiu. Lin Pingping left one Lingjiu here to facilitate the communication with Miao Yi, and Miao Yi also took one away to facilitate contact with the capital.

After everything was done, Miao Yi and the others left Yudu Peak and prepared to go back.

Lin Pingping, who was extremely grateful, sent Miao Yi out of the capital. She stopped and looked for a long time, until Miao Yi and the others completely disappeared from her sight, then she wiped her red eyes, turned around and rode back on the dragon horse.

I couldn't wait to return to my "new home", the cheapest residence in Yudu Peak, a small house in a small courtyard.

There is a bedroom, study, living room and kitchen in the small house, and there is a small pavilion in the small courtyard outside. There is a rockery on the side, a small pond with some ornamental fish, a big tree for shade, a small flower garden with fragrance, and a diversion of the living spring on the mountain passing through the yard, making it convenient to get water.

Although the place is small. But it has everything, it looks very delicate and quiet, and there are people who are responsible for cleaning on call, so it is no problem to live alone. This is originally for people to live alone, and it can't accommodate too many people.

Although the environment is not as beautiful as the mountain where I lived before. There are also a group of servants to serve, but it is much better than the inns outside Yudu Peak, and the cave she lived in before is even better. The most important thing is that it is safe to live here, and those people from all walks of life dare not come to Yudu Peak to cause trouble.

After walking around inside and outside, Lin Pingping sat in the pavilion and looked around the quiet and elegant courtyard.

This is where she lives for a long time. In order for her to work with peace of mind, the adults have reserved this place for a long time. In the future, it will be her home. She no longer has to run around for a living, and she no longer has to let her daughter look down on her.

Touching the jade tabletop, she suddenly shed big tears and covered her mouth and sobbed.

She felt that it was not easy for her. She was born in a famous and wealthy family. She used to be rich and well-dressed, but what kind of life has she lived in the past few decades.

She had been living in a dark cave with no water source. She had to run far to get to the bathroom. She lived a life worse than ordinary people. She had to live in fear every day. There were also some rogues among the casual cultivators who suddenly broke into the cave to harass her. She could not defend herself from anyone in a cave without a door. She could only fight hard or live in fear all day.

Thinking of the time when she had to find work to make a living, she gradually became thick-skinned due to various humiliations. Finally, she forgot her origin and gave up her dignity. She could also open her clothes to show her white chest...

When she thought of her origin and the shameless things she had done, she felt ashamed of her ancestors. When she thought of the way her in-laws looked at her when she could not even take out a dowry when her daughter got married, she would never forget it.

Now she no longer had to live that kind of life. Lin Pingping was overjoyed and finally cried loudly on the jade table. She cried with joy.

Alarmed by her crying, the eagle caged under the eaves made a "gurgle" sound, waking her up.

After wiping away her tears, she remembered that the adults gave her such a good environment not for her to cry here, but for her to do things conveniently. If she could not complete the tasks assigned by the adults well, she would soon lose everything.

Lin Pingping took a deep breath. She could not lose everything she had fought for with great difficulty. She must not let the adults down. As long as she did a good job, the adults said that they would completely resolve her status as a casual cultivator.

Thinking of the wish beads Miao Yi gave her before he left, she carefully took them out, emitting a soft halo on her fingertips, very beautiful. She hadn't used the wish beads for many years, and almost forgot the taste of using them. She thought she would never have the chance to use them before she died, and this one belonged to her. As long as she did a good job, she would have one every year in the future.

She carefully put the wish bead close to her body again, and took out another 100 gold crystals, which were naturally left by Miao Yi before he left.

Miao Yi knew that it would be difficult to do things without any spare money on hand, so he left some funds for her first, and she would go to the Chamber of Commerce to collect them every month in the future. He considered everything that should be considered for her, and asked her to go directly to Luo Ping of the Fairyland Chamber of Commerce for help if she encountered any trouble. He had already made arrangements with Luo Ping.

She kept fifty of them for herself, wrapped the remaining fifty in a handkerchief and put them away, and got up and left the courtyard.

When she crossed a stone bridge again, turned into a small street, and came to the small hotel run by her daughter and son-in-law, her daughter and son-in-law who were cleaning the store saw her coming and frowned.

The son-in-law shook his head and sighed, "I was right, wasn't I? I told you that I didn't bring guests here for nothing. Honghong, I asked you to prepare the money in advance, wasn't it?"

The daughter bit her lip, quickly went behind the counter, grabbed a small bag, walked out and threw it on a table, without even looking at Lin Pingping, turned her head and said, "Take it away."

Lin Pingping didn't take the money on the table, stood there upright and said, "You two come here, I have something to say."

The couple looked at each other and found that her tone of voice was different today. The righteousness of the name was still there. The two finally frowned and walked over. The son-in-law tried to ask, "Do you think it's too little?"

Lin Pingping solemnly warned the two, "I know it's not easy for you to run this hotel. Business has not been very good. It's just a last resort. You can only make a living, but don't you also need to find out where the problem lies? You also saw what happened last time. The dishes you made were really not very tasty, and the customers were very dissatisfied. I suggest that you stop the business for a while. It's not too late to learn the skills first and then open the store. "

The daughter immediately replied: "You are easy to say. Once the store is closed, what will we eat and drink? We have to spend time every day to provide our own wishes. It's not like you can be idle all day and wander around. How can you have time to learn the skills? You have to come to us to get some when you have nothing to do. We dare not close it, and we can't afford it!"

Lin Pingping took out the handkerchief, put it on the table and opened it. The fifty gold crystals revealed were very eye-catching. The couple stared at them in a daze.

"This money should be enough to support you to close the store for a while. You can take care of yourself."

Lin Pingping didn't say much. After speaking, she turned and left. She no longer had to lower her head and go out as if she had done something wrong as before, but held her head high.

After all these years, since her daughter got married, she finally took out her mother's dignity for the first time to lecture the two juniors. As she walked on the road, tears welled up in her eyes.

The couple in the store looked at the money left on the table and looked at each other. Fifty gold crystals were equivalent to 500,000 white crystals, which was not a small amount for ordinary people. It was enough for them to live for a long time without doing anything...

After more than 20 riders arrived at the territory of Zhenyi Palace, Miao Yi parted ways with Tian Qingfeng and others. Tian Qingfeng and others were going back to Lanyumen to report, and Miao Yi also asked them to bring a message to Tong Renmei.

After the two sides separated, Miao Yi led Luo Shuangfei to travel for several days, and finally returned to Donglai Cave after being exhausted all the way.

The gatekeeper in the cave saw him from a distance and naturally would not stop him. When Miao Yi led Luo Shuangfei to break in directly, he saluted and called him "Sir".

Miao Yi just nodded, came to the side door of the house behind the main hall, jumped off the dragon horse, and led Luo Shuangfei directly in.

Xue'er, who heard the noise and came out to see, shouted in surprise: "My lord is back, my lord is back."

Qian'er soon ran out, and the two of them chattered around Miao Yi, so happy.

Luo Shuangfei, who followed behind, looked at the two women left and right, and said: "Are these two your personal maids?"

Miao Yi, who walked into the main hall and sat down, nodded and introduced: "This is Qian'er, this is Xue'er, and this is Luo Shuangfei, who will be the one in the cave from now on."

Qian'er and Xue'er greeted each other, but Luo Shuangfei snorted coldly: "Is this what a personal maid looks like? It's too unfair to the audience and it's an insult to your status. My lord, I advise you to change the person, and I will find you two more beautiful ones later."

What's going on? Qian'er and Xue'er were stunned for a moment. They didn't know how much effect Luo Shuangfei's words could have in front of Miao Yi, but since he could say such words in front of Miao Yi, they must have a special relationship. In short, the two of them felt like they were struck by lightning. The joy of seeing their master return disappeared in an instant. They panicked and looked at Miao Yi nervously.
