Chapter 4: How to accumulate merit?

The villa community was very large. Because of its low floor area ratio, Lu Yunyao only saw an old man practicing a Tai Chi sword as she walked.

After leaving the villa community, there was a bus stop not far from the gate.

Lu Yunyao boarded the bus and went to the city center.

At six o’clock in the morning, there were still too few people.

Lu Yunyao’s stomach growled.

She went to McDonald’s for a meal.

In the past, the original owner of the body was too poor to eat this kind of foreign fast food, so she could satisfy her old wish while she was not fasting now.

Lu Yunyao chose the cheapest set meal with a hamburger.

The lettuce was washed quite clean, but it tasted a bit strange when paired with fried chicken nuggets and rich white salad dressing.

Lu Yunyao wasn’t used to eating this, but she didn’t waste anything strange so she still ate the burger clean.

When Lu Yunyao was eating the breakfast set, she noticed a beggar outside McDonald’s.

Lu Yunyao finished eating in a few moments and ran to the beggar outside.

The old lady looked very pitiful. Her clothes were torn and smelly. Her fingernails were all black. She must have been in her seventies, but she was wandering around begging.

She was eating steamed buns when she saw Lu Yunyao coming over. She quickly opened the paper box in front of her. What was written on it was: I am a deaf-mute, my husband is in the hospital, and I am asking kind people for help with a few pennies.

Tears welled up in the corners of the old lady’s eyes.

The old lady pointed her payment code in front of Lu Yunyao.

Lu Yunyao used her skills and started divination. The life of the old lady in front of her appeared in her mind.

This beggar started begging very early. At that time, when electronic payment was not popular, she relied on begging to buy a house for her son in the capital before the house prices soared. Later, she bought two houses. It can be said that she was old, but her life was off than most people in the capital.

When the old lady was young, she came here by herself. As she got older, her son was worried and would drive his mother over here. Then wait until night to take the person back.

Such good days continued until the emergence of electronic payment. Young people didn’t like to carry cash, and beggars could only use electronic payment codes to beg.

When electronic payment and beggars were stuck together people felt weird.

The beggars were able to afford a mobile phone and have a bank card to accept money from others. Once this idea came to mind, many people were reluctant to donate.

The emergence of electronic payment has greatly reduced the income of beggars. When the old lady ate with her family, she often scolded others because of this and that.

Lu Yunyao said: “You are not deaf-mute. Your husband is playing mahjong right now and is not sick. You have three houses, and your son also drives a BMW 5 series. Why are you begging here?”

The old lady immediately knew that she had encountered a problem, and this young lady knew her situation! Some people have chased her away over the years. She has experience, so she said directly: “Little girl, if you don’t want to give me money, just leave quickly.”

There was a person next to her who was about to give money, but when she heard the old lady talking, she became cautious and put away her mobile phone.

Lu Yunyao received some merit and looked in the direction of the person. She was a young girl who had turned around and left.

Should she guard the old lady so that she cannot beg? How much merit can she get?

Lu Yunyao decided to give it a try, so a scene like this appeared in the city center——

There was a little girl with pink hair standing next to an old lady. When the old lady wanted to beg, Lu Yunyao said: “She is a liar. She can talk. She bought three houses for her son and daughter-in-law in the capital by begging. One of which is near the school district in Haiding.”

At first, the old lady thought about fixing this Lu Yunyao, but she retorted: “Have you seen that house?”

In the end, Lu Yunyao nodded seriously: “It’s in Xingfuwan Community in Haiding District. I also know the house number. Do you want me to continue?”

The old lady later gave up. She said kind words to the little girl: “I’m old, and I can’t do anything else. What’s wrong with me begging?”

Lu Yunyao simply said: “Some people encounter difficulties. If there are too many people pretending to beg, it will be a harm to those who ask for help.”

The little girl with pink hair refused to take any advice. The old lady even pretended to leave, but the little girl still followed her silently.

Lu Yunyao had the skills and knew that the old lady still wanted to beg.

In the end, the old lady was tired and decided to give up today’s begging and prepare to go home. Lu Yunyao looked at her back and frowned slightly.

Lu Yunyao estimated that she had spent two hours with the old lady today. She had indeed gained merit, but this merit was almost equivalent to the effect of a hundred yuan donation.

Should she take the route of making money and donating money?

Lu Yunyao began to think about it. She wanted to work after the college entrance examination. She heard that moving bricks was very profitable, and she could even earn 10,000 a month. She had not cultivated immortality before and her physical strength was not good. Now that she has become a mortal, could she earn money by moving bricks? Twenty or thirty thousand? On average, that’s seven hundred a day, which was more meritorious than stopping an old lady from begging.

Lu Yunyao quickly shook off this thought and saw a trembling old lady about to cross the road.

Lu Yunyao helped the old lady cross the road, and she gained some merit.

Lu Yunyao waited on the roadside for a while and saw another person in need of help.

The sanitation worker had been busy for a long time in the hot summer, and now that it was daylight, she felt so dizzy that she was about to suffer from heat stroke.

Lu Yunyao quickly went over to support the sanitation worker, fanned her, washed her face with cold water, and gave the sanitation worker a bottle of mineral water. The sanitation worker looked at Lu Yunyao gratefully.

After wandering around for half an hour, an old man scavenging came over.

Lu Yunyao saw glass particles in the trash can with a sharp tip. She helped the old man pick up the trash to avoid scratching his hand and gained merit.

After struggling like this for two hours, Lu Yunyao also received a call from home asking when she would be back.

“I’ll eat out at noon.” After Lu Yunyao said briefly, she continued to do good deeds and helped a thin little girl pick up things.

The little girl dropped her fruit on the floor and gave an apple to Lu Yunyao: “Thank you!”

The golden light of merit soared from her body and entered in between Lu Yunyao’s eyebrows.

Tang Mingmei hung up the phone and said to Lu Mengke and Lu Junyi: “She won’t come back until tonight. Let’s eat first.”

Lu Junyi wished that Lu Yunyao would stay outside and not come back, while Lu Mengke felt that her plan to get close to Lu Yunyao again had failed.

Do the real and false daughters have to be in opposition? Can’t they get along well with each other?

Lu Mengke sighed deeply.

Throughout the whole day, Lu Yunyao did good deeds in the city center.

Carrying luggage, holding ladders, and translating for foreigners. She saw the difficulties of some people and helped some people.

Lu Yunyao also discovered one thing. The efficiency of the helping hand was too low. Isn’t there a way to quickly get people in trouble to come to her? Instead of visiting people one by one to help?

She was sitting at the station waiting for the bus. The sunset today was bright, reflecting all the things in the world with a dazzling glow.

Lu Yunyao sat on the bench at the station. The wind blew through her hair slightly, as she fell into deep thought.

This scene captured Leng Jiashu’s lens.

Today was also a day for Leng Jiashu to live broadcast. He was a wealthy young man. His family fund alone was enough for him to eat. His latest hobby was live broadcasting.

Because he always travels in luxury cars, fans coaxed him to take the bus, so it was rare for Leng Jiashu to take the bus to go home.

Leng Jiashu groaned.

Fans left messages:

[Young Master Leng, what’s wrong?]

[What did you see?]

Leng Jiashu said: “I saw the second young lady of the Lu family at yesterday’s dinner.”

[Wow, I have an impression of the real daughter among the real and fake daughters! I still remember that young lady’s eyes were fierce.]

[The real daughter lives in a rural area, right? So she travels by bus? Didn’t the Lu family treat her well enough? Shouldn’t she ride in the same car as Little Master Leng when she came and went?]

[Poor real daughter.]

[Don’t rush to sympathize, maybe she is trying to look miserable. I have a hunch that this is a battle of wits between the real and the fake!]

Leng Jiashu didn’t look at the barrage. He looked at Lu Yunyao. Lu Yunyao’s mottled pink hair was still very recognizable. She was sitting on the bench at the bus stop, looking at…

Leng Jiashu followed Lu Yunyao’s gaze and saw that she was looking at a dog.
