Chapter 61 Poor Clam



Xiao Shanjian was very perceptive, "What do you want to do?"

"Xiaoshan, we haven't had a good chat these few days since you came to my house. How about I treat you to a meal?"

Xiao Shanjian felt that she was like a fox, and he was like a chick, being targeted by the fox, and felt like he had nowhere to escape.

The four, five, six, and three nephews all gathered around. When they heard about the delicious food, their mouths watered: "Aunt, take us with you?"

"No, only Xiaoshan is invited today."

"Only Xiaoshan can do this. My nephews can't do it. They can't even finish their own homework. How can I count on them?"

[You can't just sit back and eat after picking him up. You have to work.]

The three nephews were separated at once, and doing homework by themselves was a living hell. No matter how good my aunt was, she couldn't do this job.

"Let's go."

Zhao Letong didn't wait for Xiao Shanjian to resist. He hugged his shoulders like a good brother and took him away.

The nephews looked at him with sympathy and said, "Xiaoshan, you're on your own."

Zhao Letong did not treat him badly and went straight to Baiweiju. Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Ye Heqi for a long time and wondered how the cold poison in his body was doing.

When the shopkeeper saw her coming, he smiled until his face was wrinkled like old tree bark, and said, "Miss Zhao is here. Please come upstairs to the private room. It's reserved for you. You don't have time to come."

The river fish that was just delivered to the building is very big, but it is a rare thing. Miss Zhao came at the right time, so I asked the kitchen to stew it for you to taste."

"Oh, what river fish?"

The seafood is too far away and will die when it is transported here. It is usually river fish, shrimp, crab, and some are from the lake. Most of the seafood is dried goods.

The shopkeeper pretended to be mysterious and said, "Miss Zhao, you can come and see it in person. I guarantee you will find it rare."

"That's great, let's go and take a look."

Xiao Shanjian had no right to make the decision, so she had already been dragged to the kitchen.

In a huge stone pool lay a river clam the size of a tabletop, emitting bursts of spiritual energy. Zhao Letong chuckled, "Oh, what a coincidence."

The river clam seemed to be frightened and started to slide around, trying to escape. Unfortunately, the space was so small that it couldn't get out. It huddled in the corner, trembling like a bullied girl.

The shopkeeper was very surprised. It was just a river clam, but he could actually feel that it was afraid.

"Miss Zhao, let's eat it today. Whether stir-fried or stewed, it's delicious. Add some vermicelli and make a vermicelli pot, which is also good. It's so big that you can make more than ten dishes with it."

Zhao Letong chuckled, "Just eat it."

[No, please don't eat me, please save me, I will repay you.]

The clam used his spiritual sense to communicate with Zhao Letong, who waved his hand and said, "Boss, go ahead and do your work. I'll play for a while."

"Okay, Miss, just tell me if you have anything to say."

They dared not neglect the distinguished guests of their host. Even the Zhao family members were given preferential treatment. There were always empty seats for them in the private rooms that others could not book.

Xiao Shanjian watched her sit cross-legged, frowning. He asked someone to bring a cushion and pulled her up. "Put on the cushion. Girls should be elegant, reserved, and pay attention to their image."

"You're really nosy."

She still sat down. Where was the cushion on the ground that was comfortable? If she didn't talk and just did her job, she would be a thoughtful and considerate person.

Such a good kid, but he has a mouth that speaks in an unpleasant way.

This river clam is the one in the Princess's Mansion that almost killed Xiao Shanqing. Zhao Letong remembered its scent, but he didn't expect it to be caught so quickly. Retribution comes quickly.

"Why did you want to harm Xiao Shanqing? You are a spiritual being. Cultivation is not easy. You cannot be contaminated by the sin of killing. Otherwise, a spiritual being will turn into a demon. Any cultivator would capture you and stew you in soup. You did things you shouldn't have done, and that's why you are in this situation."

The clam hesitated and could only speak the truth. "Who cares about her? I came here for you. Don't you know your own constitution? I took over your body and could transform into a human form without any hard training. Who knew something like that would fall out? I'm so pissed off."

Zhao Letong: “…”

[Oh, you want to take over my body? Look at your ability. Even if you come to take it, you can't take it away. How can I be taken over by you? What are you dreaming of?]

【Woo woo, I was wrong, I won’t dare to do it again. 】

You dared to have evil thoughts about Zhao Letong, and this is your retribution. You were caught and eaten.

[Seeing that your cultivation is not easy, I will forgive you this time. However, I can spare you the death penalty, but I cannot forgive you the living crime. If you sign a master-servant agreement with me and become my servant, leaving your life and death to me, I can spare your life.]

The river clam was not happy. It thought it was so undignified to be a servant. Although it was just a river clam, it was also a rare spiritual creature that was rarely seen in a thousand years. It had lived for hundreds of years. It instinctively resisted being a slave to a little kid.

Zhao Letong didn't force him. "You have a criminal record. You even tried to take over my body. If you try to take over someone else's body, and I let you go today, I'll be affected by your karma. If you commit a crime, I'll also be jointly responsible. I have to control you, right?"

The clam also understood, "Okay, I promise you."

In order to survive, the river clam had no choice but to give up a drop of blood and become Zhao Letong's slave.

Xiao Shanjian seemed to see a drop of golden light falling on Zhao Letong. She smiled happily and ordered the servants, "Send it to the Princess's Mansion and have them raise it in the pond. Tell them I ordered it. Don't kill it, or you won't be able to pay the compensation."

The waiter asked, "You don't want to eat anymore?"

"Keep it and eat it when something good happens to celebrate. Don't eat it today."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

The river clam stretched out. It had lived in the pond of the Princess's Mansion for more than ten years and had gotten used to it. It would be great if it could return there.

After solving the problem of the river clams, Zhao Letong ordered the dishes that the child liked, which were sweet and sour. Ginseng chicken soup was a must. She drank it every day, and her spiritual energy increased rapidly.

"Eat more. Studying is very demanding on your brain. You need to eat some more."

Picking up some food for Xiao Shanjian, Xiao Shanjian's face became serious as he asked, "What exactly do you want to do? Tell me straight away, or I won't be able to eat."

"Help me with my homework."

"No, you can't be lazy when studying. If I help you, I'll be harming you."

"But I know all of them. The teacher insisted that I write them, and I can't disobey the teacher. If I make him angry, will my father forgive me? It's really annoying."

Zhao Letong doesn't want to waste her time on boring things. It's just writing. She can learn it with some practice.

It would take at least half an hour to write fifty characters a day, and she didn't want to sit there and waste so much time.

Isn’t it nice to meditate and sleep?

"That won't work either."

Zhao Letong's eyes narrowed dangerously, "Xiaoshan, have you ever heard the saying, 'If you don't accept a toast, you'll have to drink a forfeit.' If soft tactics don't work, you'll have to try hard tactics. Don't forget, your life and death are in my hands!"

Xiao Shanjian refused to agree, "Whether it's a fine or a hard punishment, I'm not afraid. I'm doing this for your own good."
