Chapter 17 Nonsense
There were more than ten people who followed Chunxiang to deliver the things. They were all carrying trays, wooden boxes or jewelry boxes, all of which were filled with valuable things.
Lu Yao's eyes lingered on these things, and only looked away after confirming that these people had not tampered with them.
Seeing that she looked like she had never seen the world, Chunxiang was even more perfunctory and indifferent: "The things have been delivered, we can go back and report."
After saying this, he was about to take everyone away.
"Wait!" Lu Yao called out to everyone.
Chunxiang's eyes flashed with impatience: "What else?"
"Of course we need to check and confirm," Lu Yao looked at Chunxiang like she was an idiot. "You don't think that just putting it down will be enough? What are you thinking?"
Chunxiang was stabbed in the face and was furious, but she didn't dare to refute. She could only curl her lips and said, "Then please count them."
She just didn't believe these people could see anything.
Unfortunately, she is destined to be disappointed.
Chen Yanrong looked around carefully and asked casually, "Have they all been delivered?"
Chunxiang was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied, "Of course."
"Are you sure?" Chen Yanrong pulled out a set of four treasures from inside. "Then let's check them one by one and confirm their signatures. If there's anything missing, we'll go find the head of the family."
Upon hearing this, Chunxiang knelt down immediately: "Master Yan, it's so late, the master and the mistress have already gone to bed, it's better not to disturb them."
Shen Yanrong's expression instantly turned cold: "Then let me ask you, is this all there is?"
"No, no..." Chunxiang had no choice but to reply, "Butler Chen is still in the warehouse taking inventory and sorting things out."
Chen Yanrong withdrew his gaze, ignored her, and did not ask anyone to stand up.
He walked to the four treasures of the study and began to grind ink, while Lu Yao counted these things one by one. She spoke about each item after she finished counting it, and Shen Yanrong wrote it down. The two of them cooperated tacitly and quickly finished counting everything.
Excluding the shops and farms, they only accounted for a small part of the dowry, and it was obvious that a lot of it was embezzled.
Chen Yanrong asked Chunxiang and others to sign and confirm one by one before letting them leave. However, they had to take what they needed to take with them.
Even though Chunxiang was jealous and unwilling, she had no choice but to agree.
After everyone left, Shen Yanrong said, "Those people are just as you expected."
"The Shen family's basic operation," Lu Yao shrugged. Thinking of the contents of the book, she smiled unkindly. "After tonight, everything will no longer belong to the Shen family."
"By then, I won't be able to take my mother's dowry with me." Shen Yanrong was full of regret and loss, but as soon as he thought that those people in the Shen family would soon have nothing, his mood instantly improved.
Lu Yao curled her lips: "Who said I can't take it away?"
Shen Yanrong's eyes lit up: "Sister Yao, do you have a solution?"
“…”
Lu Yao was somewhat helpless. "You really don't doubt it at all?"
She feels a lot of pressure to trust her so much.
Chen Yanrong chuckled foolishly: "Who told you to be my wife?"
Of course, he didn't trust her blindly, but he knew his wife's character and she wouldn't say anything without any purpose.
Lu Yao covered her eyes, she simply couldn't bear to watch.
"Sister Yao, tell me your idea quickly." Shen Yanrong urged.
If we really have to go into exile together, we must have money on us, otherwise the journey will be long and difficult, and our wives and children will definitely suffer a lot.
Especially the children, they are still so young. If anything happens to them, he will never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
"The immortal knew we had been exiled due to an unforeseen disaster, and he also predicted that we would face some difficulties in the future, so he gave me a magic weapon," Lu Yao whispered mysteriously, leaning close to his ear. "He said that I could put anything I wanted into the magic weapon, and I could take it out whenever I needed it."
Shen Yanrong was shocked. There is such a Pokémon?
Then he felt proud of it. His sister Yao was so amazing!
Although I don’t know what this magic weapon is, it was given by an immortal, so it must be extremely powerful.
He looked at his wife, waiting for her to show herself.
Seeing this, Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh and picked up a jade ruyi in front of her: "Look carefully."
As soon as she thought about it, the jade ruyi in her hand disappeared instantly.
Chen Yanrong rubbed his eyes to make sure they were clear. Then he was stunned and confused, and in a trance, he said in disbelief: "Sister Yao, where is Yu Ruyi?"
He actually stuttered a little.
Lu Yao chuckled and took his hand, turning it palm up, as if ready to receive something. The next moment, the Jade Ruyi reappeared before their eyes and, under Lu Yao's control, landed directly in Shen Yanrong's hand. "Did you see clearly?"
"Was this taken out from the magic weapon?" Shen Yanrong was amazed.
Lu Yao didn't keep the secret any longer. "I heard from the immortals that this magic weapon can hold a lot of things. What's more, no matter how long it takes for these things to be put in, they will remain the same when you take them out. For example, if you put a bowl of hot noodles in it, it will still be hot when you take it out ten days or half a month later. There will be no change at all."
"Is this so powerful?" Shen Yanrong had never heard of it before. "Then, is this magical weapon stored in a safe place? What if it's lost or stolen?"
"Don't worry," Lu Yao took out a cup of milk tea from the space, inserted a straw and handed it to the man, "This is the milk tea I bought in that world."
The space was activated before the apocalypse broke out. At that time, because of her parents and the fact that she often read novels, she made a lot of guesses. In order to be on the safe side and to be prepared for any eventuality, she prepared a lot of things, and she also bought milk tea at that time.
As it turned out, when the end of the world came, various industries were paralyzed and social order was disordered. Even an inconspicuous cup of milk tea was a luxury at that time.
She took another cup, put a straw in it and took a sip, then sighed. She hadn't had milk tea for many years and she really missed it.
Chen Yanrong quickly accepted the fact that the other party had gone to another world for a long time while unconscious. Now hearing her say this, he did not have any doubts at all. He followed her example and took a sip. It was very strange, a taste he had never tasted before, but it was delicious.
"Delicious, right?" Lu Yao took another sip and then explained, "Although I am using this magical tool, it is not in this space we are in. Only I can use the magic spells engraved by the immortals to open a specific channel and put the things inside."
After hearing what she said, Shen Yanrong felt relieved. Then he thought of something and continued to ask worriedly, "What if they know the magic?"
Only then did Lu Yao realize that this man had the ability to get to the bottom of things, but she knew that he asked so carefully not because he was concerned about the treasure, but because he was worried about her situation.
"The immortal naturally considered this issue. He personally crafted this magical instrument for me. It connects directly to where the immortal resides. No one in the world can open it except me," she said, putting the jade ruyi back into the space. "So, you don't have to worry at all."
After she finished speaking, she thought of something and added, "It's not accurate to call this treasure a magical weapon. From what the immortals said, it's of a very high grade, reaching the level of a fairy weapon. Therefore, not everyone can discover and open it."
Of course, this was all just nonsense.
The existence of space is against the will of heaven. Even if the man in front of her is trustworthy, she still hopes that he will not know too much. Sometimes, secrets are only safe if they are kept in the stomach.
It's not that they are worried that he will do something bad to them, but that they are afraid that the other person's safety will be threatened.
However, in this era, people are very awed by legends about demons, monsters, and gods, so probably few people dare to cause trouble for "immortals".
"Then, does it have any impact on your body?" Shen Yanrong asked again.
When he learned that there was no impact, he finally felt relieved.
