"Brother, why did you come to sleep in this yard? Weren't you with Yao'er last night?"

Wen Yaoer was more confused than angry about the adults' quiet escape. She suspected that she was sleepwalking and didn't know what was going on.

She put the little fox down, crawled all the way from the edge of the quilt into Chu Wuzhi's arms, climbed over the mountain of her mother, and lay on the man's chest.

Chu Wuji hurriedly tried to find a solution: "I was sweating from the heat, and I was afraid of the smell of sweat, so I got up and took a shower. Then, as soon as I got out of the shower, I felt cold, so I found the nearest yard to hide and sleep."

He felt the guilty and nervous feeling of an adult doing something bad behind a child's back, worried about being discovered.

In the second half of last night, because I was so exhausted, I chose to secretly go to the bathhouse to take a shower, so as not to have to explain to Yaoer when I woke up.

During this period, the one who had the most fun was Empress Tianhu. After Empress Wen and Princess Jing'an were satisfied to the point of losing their minds, Empress Tianhu took over.

If the conditioning effects could be stored in advance, I wouldn’t have to worry about it in the next few months.

Their consciousness had probably been asleep for two hours, but their bodies had only rested for about half an hour...

"I see. No wonder Mother and the others even changed their clothes. They were sleeping so soundly."

Wen Yaoer didn't worry about it anymore. This broad-mindedness saved Chu Wuzhi a lot of energy, and he no longer had to worry about making excuses.

In addition, the Sky Fox Goddess possessed the little girl's body again, and the animal ears that grew on her head attracted the girl's attention, and she quickly forgot about the strangeness of last night.

About half an hour later, Queen Wen and Princess Jing'an woke up one after another.

Their bodies felt limp as mud, their bones numb, as if they were falling apart. They wondered if they were really that weak. They remembered not being this exhausted when they were still conscious...

"Queen, Princess, are you awake? I'll take Yao'er out for a walk and make you something to eat later." Chu Wuji said in a gentle voice.

The two lively and beautiful young women only then noticed the existence of the little girl. They immediately put on a stern face, not daring to show any charming expression or demeanor. They found that they were still hugging Chu Wuzhi's arms, and his strong arms were sunken in their arms. They hurriedly let go, pretending nothing had happened, and secretly observed Wen Yaoer's reaction.

As a result, the little princess was busy playing with her animal ears and asked:

"Brother, can the Sky Fox Queen chat with me? Yao'er wants a big tail!"

Chu Wuji carried Yao'er out of bed and said, "The Sky Fox Queen is still asleep. I'll ask her for you when she's more energetic."

The Sky Fox Queen could indeed create one for Wen Yaoer immediately, but this would scare the two beautiful women, knowing that she could know the situation outside, and they would be restrained in the future.

Princess Jing'an suppressed her physical fatigue and stood up to help Chu Wuji tidy up his clothes. She was considerate and virtuous, and the look she cast at Chu Wuji with her beautiful eyes was so gentle that tears could drip from them.

"What do you want to eat?" Chu Wuji was not used to being served like this.

"Pigeon soup, it's a good tonic in winter." Queen Wen was the first to order, and she was particularly particular about this dish.

"I'll do the same, so that you don't have to work extra hard." Princess Jing'an said softly. She hadn't even washed or put in her makeup yet, but the rosy complexion on her cheeks was already more beautiful than rouge, making her look charming and beautiful.

"Okay." Chu Wuzhi nodded and left the room.

Including the portion for the Fox Goddess, that makes three bowls of pigeon soup. It sounds like a lot, but it's actually about the same amount of work as preparing one bowl of pigeon soup.

Princess Jing'an watched the young man carry Yao'er out of the yard, then returned to bed to continue resting.

Only two beautiful women, Empress Wen and Princess Jing'an, were left in the boudoir. They looked at each other in the quiet atmosphere, their mood a little indescribably subtle.

There was definitely some shyness afterwards, but it wasn't embarrassment or regret. I was more of a lament about how things could have developed to this point...

The relationship between the two of them had always been very close, how could they become so close one day!

Princess Jing'an found something to break the silence: "I'm just saying, Queen, how come you look so much better these days? It's like a dead tree blooming again in spring..."

Queen Wen was not happy with the term "dead wood" and said sarcastically with a smile: "Princess, your fat almost flew off~"

The two of them teased each other with some embarrassing remarks like "You were provoked by him" and "You became a watering can for watering the flowers". In the end, they both burst out laughing, covered their faces and sighed that they were like childish children.

"Can we try to practice the bedroom skills that Madam Bai taught us? Otherwise, we won't be able to withstand this child's body..."

"It seems like it could be used. Next time, let Wu Ji practice the 'Yang' chapter."

Some time passed again,

The situation encountered by the Jing'an Prince's Mansion in the funeral spread among the circles of dignitaries. Few people talked about it, but most people were envious.

Some people recognized Chu Wuji's identity based on his appearance, and remembered his duel with Yun Qingying, as well as his deeds of "persuading" Baihushanjun to return to the mountains. They guessed that he must have returned after completing his studies at the immortal family, and helped Princess Jing'an and her daughter deal with the troubles of their relatives.

In the past, if someone had a magician or fortune teller in a family, people would line up and block the door to visit him, hoping to get some so-called opportunity.

What if that expert takes a fancy to my extraordinary talent?

You never know! If that “what if” happens, it could be a life-changing event.

However, Chu Wuji's actions that night were too ruthless, and no one dared to disturb him rashly, so the Jing'an Palace was blessed with peace and quiet.

On the contrary, those wealthy families were trying various means to send invitations, hoping to visit the palace and meet the "immortal".

This made the palace's servants so proud when they went out to purchase things that they held their heads high and chests puffed out, wishing they could hang their identity tokens on their foreheads.

Chu Wuji basically stayed in the palace, and from time to time he accompanied the queen and princess to practice the art of sex.

When he got the "Yang" chapter, he felt emotional. This was the "health-preserving" technique that Ning Xianzhi had given him to repay his kindness. He was so moved that he thought he would be able to use it!

It’s a pity that although Empress Wen has opened up her spiritual veins and can breathe in spiritual energy and complete a small circulation on her own, Empress Tianhu still hasn’t figured out a breathing technique that’s useful to her at the moment.

But overall, Goddess Tianhu has not suffered any damage, is in good spirits, and can accept it.

One day, Wen Yaoer, who had gone to the old house to walk the cat, came back in a hurry.

She rubbed her eyes as she ran, suspecting that her eyesight was blurry.

Chu Wuji picked her up and asked, "Yao'er, didn't you just go out with Sister Que? Did you forget to bring the cat?"

"No, brother, I just saw Aunt Bai! And there was a sister wearing a green skirt!"

In Wen Yaoer's understanding, Aunt Bai Bai Sujin should have died of illness. Now she suddenly saw a living person again, and she couldn't help but be shocked.

What a daytime ghost!

But after all, she was Chu Wuzhi's dearest mother, and Wen Yaoer knew that she couldn't say such impolite words as "hell".

Chu Wuji was stunned and murmured, "Mother and Aunt Qingshe are here already?"

Chapter 169 Punishing Aunt

This news was undoubtedly a surprise and exciting for Chu Wuji.

He really thought that his mother Bai Sujin and Aunt Green Snake would not show up until every household put up new couplets and the streets were filled with the sound of firecrackers.

I don’t know if it was because of the “scolding” from the Goddess of Heavenly Fox at that time that made them rush over here.

Wen Yaoer saw that Chu Wuji hadn't spoken for a long time, and asked worriedly:

"Brother, what's going on? Aunt Bai missed you so much that she came back during the Chinese New Year... to see you?

Some families have been replacing their couplets and talismans recently. Will this affect Aunt Bai?

Chu Wuji couldn't help laughing and opened his mouth to explain, but he didn't know how to say it.

When he just returned to the capital, Princess Jing'an and others looked at his white hair and thought he was too sad. They didn't dare to ask about Bai Sujin and assumed that she was dead.

You can't say that she became an emperor, took the elixir of immortality, and lived a second life, right?

Chu Wuji explained with an embarrassed look:

"Aunt Bai...she once took an immortal fruit in her early years. It didn't work at the time, but later on, as she accumulated virtue and did good deeds, the effect returned. She extended her lifespan for a while, and her illness was cured. My brother only found out about this when he was out last time."

Wen Yaoer blinked her eyes, indicating that she didn't understand. She asked in confusion, "Does this mean that Aunt Bai turned into a ghost, or came back to life?"

"It can be considered as coming back to life, which means he is still alive." Chu Wuzhi gave a conclusion.

The little princess understood now, nodded in realization, patted her chest as if she had just been frightened, and said:

"Brother, stop talking nonsense. When Yaoer entered the old house just now, she thought she saw a ghost! She was so scared that I told Sister Que to run away!"

Si Que had seen Bai Sujin before, and she was probably shocked as well. She sent the little princess back to the palace and went back to confirm whether it was haunted.

Chu Wuji was already ashamed, but he heard this well-behaved little girl excitedly say:

"That's great! Then brother won't have to worry about Aunt Bai anymore!"

"Won't Yao'er feel like she's been worried for nothing and that her feelings have been betrayed?"

The girl shook her head, and her pigtails swayed like rattles. She considered her words for a moment before speaking:

"No, the one who was most worried and upset at the time was my brother. Even if Aunt Bai's life or death seemed like a misunderstanding, a false alarm, my brother's feelings at the time were all recorded in his hair!"

After Wen Yaoer finished speaking, she leaned in to observe Chu Wuji's hair, parted the ends of her hair, looked carefully at the roots, and saw that the black stubble had grown a lot longer. Then she smiled with relief, and two dimples suddenly appeared on her soft face, making her look cute and sweet.

No wonder this little girl is so popular among dignitaries, she is indeed well-behaved and likable.

Chu Wuji pinched her little face and said, "Brother is going to the old house first. I'll take you to buy some candied haws later."

"Yao'er also wants to chat with Aunt Bai~" The girl suddenly hugged the tall man's neck tightly, as if she was acting coquettishly.

In fact, she just wanted to stick to Chu Wuzhi, but she still had to say something nice.

"I'll take you to see Aunt Bai later. Let's go find Mother first. She has two fox ears on her head, bigger than Yao'er's!"

"Then I'll go find my mother and see if Lady Sky Fox can come to Yao'er."

Wen Yaoer became interested and ran to find Princess Jing'an.

During this period, the Sky Fox Queen tried to show up and speak, but she interacted with them in the form of a nine-tailed fox, while maintaining her personality of "often sleeping and unaware of the outside world" so as not to cause any concerns from the princess and others.

This way, Goddess Fox will have less melons to eat, which is not good!

Chu Wuji saw Yaoer running into the inner hall, then moved to the old house.

*

In the old house,

Bai Sujin and Aunt Qingshe walked around the rooms and the pharmacy in the front hall, and several cats looked at them curiously.

The cats in the palace were quite shy, but the scent of the white snake and the green snake was like the arrival of gods in their eyes, so they did not hide in fear.

"Wu Ji probably hasn't lived here recently. The bedding doesn't look like he sleeps here often, but he must have come back from time to time." Bai Sujin said softly.

Every corner of the old house is clean and tidy, showing that someone takes care of it regularly. Even the medicine cabinet is fully stocked.

Houses are very dependent on popularity. No matter whether it is an ordinary citizen's country cottage or a carefully built mansion of a wealthy family, if no one lives in it for a period of time, it will immediately become dilapidated.

Bai Sujin hadn't been back for such a long time, but the old house was exactly the same as she remembered, which surprised her a little.

Aunt Qing Snake wondered, "Who was that little girl just now? She seemed to be here to walk the cat. Why did she call you 'Auntie'?"

Bai Sujin shook her head. She didn't know the little girl. She was very pretty and cute. Judging from her clothes, she came from a wealthy family and would not be easily forgotten.

"I really don't know her. If she called me aunt, why did she turn around and run away?"

Auntie Qing Snake speculated: "It might be the little girl you met when Ning Xianzhi used your sister's body to deceive people. She knew you were dead, so she might have thought she saw a ghost!"

Chu Wuzhi walked up from behind them and appeared at the right time. When he heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but smile.

"Auntie is so analytical?"

Bai Sujin and Aunt Green Snake turned around at the same time. Bai Sujin was still feeling the emotion of the official reunion, but the girl in the green dress had already stepped forward quickly and hugged Chu Wuji, even more eager and anxious than Bai Sujin, his mother!

"Sigh..." Bai Sujin sighed inexplicably tired when she thought of the Green Snake and her son.

Aunt Qingshe wanted to hug the younger one like an elder, but when they were both standing, Chu Wuji was much taller and stronger, so Qingshe couldn't create the atmosphere she wanted. She frowned and said angrily:

"You little brat, squat down a little. Do you really want me to stand on tiptoe to hug you like a young girl?"

Chu Wuzhi looked at the pouting expression of the heroic girl and reluctantly bent down to cooperate. Aunt Green Snake then hugged his shoulders and put her face on his shoulders.

If you only look at the upper body, it does have a warm and beautiful atmosphere of a family reunion?

"Wu Ji, my sister knows about us. I've been scolded already. You'd better take care of yourself! If you get beaten, your aunt will help you apply medicine later!" Aunt Qingshe whispered in his ear.

"..."

I was wondering why you were so eager to bring the baby up here? It turns out you were the first to give me a heads-up.

The girl in green dress let go after hugging for a while and quickly stepped aside to give her seat to her sister and Chu Wuzhi.

Chu Wuji met the eyes of the woman in the white dress. Perhaps it was because of their unexpected meeting last time, but this formal reunion did not make him feel excited.

He took off the white jade pendant from his waist, slowly walked to Bai Sujin, and put it back on her fair and graceful neck.

Chu Wuji scratched his head and said frankly: "Mom, aunt, you came back so suddenly, I can't think of what to say..."

Bai Sujin rolled her eyes in annoyance. It was indeed the son she was familiar with.
