48: Special spiritual weapon

Inside the fitting room.

Yang Shishi, as a seamstress, for the first time awkwardly measured Jiang Chen's size.

Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still startled by Jiang Chen's size.

Jiang Chen sat on a chair in the fitting room, while Yang Shishi sat sideways on Jiang Chen's lap.

Although Yang Shishi was sweating profusely, her face was full of satisfaction.

"So... it's such a wonderful feeling, completely different from what I usually do by myself..."

Yang Shishi said languidly.

"Of course it's different, I haven't even used much force yet."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, and when Yang Shishi heard him, her pupils suddenly constricted.

That level just now wasn't even considered using force?

Thinking of Jiang Chen's profound iron-like physique, Yang Shishi couldn't help but clench her sore and numb thighs.

Then, during their casual chat,

Yang Shishi also confided her fate to Jiang Chen.

She was also a woman of miserable life. On the night of her marriage, her husband, a minor officer in the Black Yamen, was conscripted to hunt down demons.

The result, naturally, was that he went and never returned.

Instead, the demons came knocking, slaughtering his entire Family.

Yang Shishi was lucky and was rescued by the Black Yamen experts who arrived.

Finally, she received a pension and opened a tailor shop in Dongfeng Town.

She had always maintained her purity.

It wasn't until the day she met Jiang Chen that she felt her heart stir.

She involuntarily made those gestures towards Jiang Chen, and when she returned, she was filled with shame, yet her heart was full of anticipation, hoping that one day Jiang Chen would walk through the doors of Huayi Workshop.

However, for several days, there was no news of Jiang Chen.

The remaining clothes were also handed over to Cheng Yurou through the inn's waiter.

She had thought Jiang Chen had no interest in her, a woman past her prime, but she hadn't expected him to appear at the most critical moment today.

"After all, I took advantage of Young Master. I am a woman past her prime, and I have this identity..."

"Nonsense, Sister Shishi, you're not old at all. What if you're married? A free life shouldn't be bound, it should be unleashed."

Jiang Chen embraced Yang Shishi, and his powerful hand playfully squeezed her.

Yang Shishi's delicate brows furrowed slightly.

Feeling Jiang Chen's seemingly domineering but actually caring embrace, Yang Shishi actively leaned into him.

Then, with a captivating gaze, she glanced at Jiang Chen.

"There's no bathroom in the shop, I'll wash you."

No bathroom?

Then how would she wash him?

Oh... by holding him.

Although Yang Shishi had zero practical experience, her theoretical experience was quite rich.

She learned by imitating, and soon cleaned Jiang Chen thoroughly.

It was already afternoon, and there were many people coming and going on the street.

Although Yang Shishi was extremely reluctant, she still dressed neatly.

She pulled open the curtain of the fitting room.

Warm sunlight shone through the window onto Yang Shishi's delicate face.

"Your shop's location is quite good, you can even see the sunset."

Jiang Chen had changed into a set of clothes Yang Shishi had made for him.

The shop didn't sell men's clothing.

Although Jiang Chen had said he wanted to order five sets last time, Yang Shishi made him seven sets and finally sent over five.

"Yes... many people envy my shop. Over the years, countless people, both inside and out, have wanted to drive me, a lonely widow, away."

"By the way, behind the four major cloth shops is the Wu Family, one of the three major Families..."

When she mentioned this, Yang Shishi couldn't help but feel a tightening in her heart.

After all, the Wu Family's influence was vast, and they might even have significant power within the government.

"Don't worry, Sister Shishi."

"You don't need to worry about the Wu Family."

"As for your shop, if you don't want to keep it going, you can sell it and live with me. Even if you don't work, I can support you."

Jiang Chen said.

Yang Shishi was slightly stunned, and her eyes immediately became moist and red.

Although her heart was blooming with joy, she still shook her head.

"I've had this shop for seven years, it's like my child. I plan to keep it going. Anyway, from now on, you'll be looking out for me."

"I won't live at your place. I know your mischievous ways, Young Master. If there are too many women at home, it's easy for them to become jealous. Sister will wait for you at the shop."

"No matter how many women you have in the future, don't forget that Sister is here."

Yang Shishi fastened Jiang Chen's belt buckle and straightened his collar.

"Hmm... truly handsome."

Looking at Jiang Chen's spirited and very upright posture.

Since Yang Shishi had her own choice, Jiang Chen naturally supported her.

Yang Shishi's shop was not far from the government office.

Coupled with Yang Shishi's identity, naturally, no one would come to cause trouble on normal days.

Even this Young Master of the Wu Family only had the idea of taking a risk because of the recent turbulent times.

"By the way, I'll teach you a Mind-Cultivation Technique. If you can comprehend it, you'll be able to Cultivate later."

In the Great Lan Dynasty, Cultivate itself required Aptitude.

Because many Cultivation Techniques had high Aptitude requirements for Cultivators, many people were unable to get started.

But Jiang Chen estimated that the Great Vehicle Emperor Yin Art didn't care much about Aptitude.

Even if one's Aptitude was poor, Dual Cultivation a few more times, and comprehending the essence a few more times.

They would quickly master it.

"Really?"

"I... I'm already twenty-seven, can I still Cultivate?"

Yang Shishi was astonished, and there was anticipation in her eyes.

"You'll know if you try."

Subsequently, Jiang Chen orally taught Yang Shishi the first level of the Mind-Cultivation Technique.

Yang Shishi learned very quickly.

Her Aptitude was even second only to Cheng Yurou.

After Cultivating, she gained a certain degree of self-preservation ability.

At least, she wouldn't be at a loss when facing certain situations.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen also bought some clothes from Yang Shishi's shop and left her ten taels of gold for her daily expenses.

This time, Yang Shishi did not refuse.

It wasn't for the money that she gave herself to Jiang Chen.

Over the years, many people in Dongfeng Town had tried to impress her with money, but none had been able to sway her.

"Next time you come, I'll wear a few different outfits for you to see..."

Yang Shishi whispered in Jiang Chen's ear.

After all, as a seamstress, the noblewomen in town would often come to order some special clothes.

These words made Jiang Chen's heart itch with anticipation.

When he returned to Purple Bamboo Manor.

He immediately pulled Cheng Yurou to check on her Cultivation progress.

Then, in the bathing room, he also sparred with the Xia Sisters.

He found that all three had made good progress.

Perhaps it was due to the Spirit Gathering Array.

"Hiss... Xiao Chen, did he take some kind of medicine... he's so powerful today."

Cheng Yurou collapsed on the bed to rest for a while, then got up to cook for Jiang Chen.

"Hmm... after Cultivating, my body has indeed become better, and I recover faster."

In the bathing room.

Jiang Chen told the exhausted Xia Si柠 and Xia Sixuan to consolidate their studies.

He, on the other hand, soaked in the bathtub for a while longer.

At the same time, he summoned the martial arts scroll in his mind.

"martial arts scroll: Current choice of three"

"One: Thunderclap Blade (Fourth-grade Spiritual Artifact)"

"Two: Sky-Shattering Twin Hammers (Fourth-grade Spiritual Artifact)"

"Three: Soul Devouring Ring (Special Spiritual Artifact, unknown grade)"
