Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

The woman reached out and stroked his handsome face, sighing with a hint of regret: "I shouldn't have left you alone. It's only been a short time since we last met, and you already have two more mothers!"

This seems to be more than...

Chu Wuji's face was a little stiff. He didn't dare to imagine what Bai Sujin's expression would be when Ning Xianzhi, Empress Tianhu, and the two mature ladies from the palace appeared one after another.

He forced himself to remain calm and said, "It's not just a matter of 'not seeing you for a while'. Every day I waited was arduous, especially when I was anxiously looking for medicine and medical treatment for you, mother."

Bai Sujin thought it made sense, and knowing she had spoken out of turn, she looked apologetic, cupped her son's face in her hands, then half-hugged and half-snuggled him against his chest, saying with great seriousness:

"It's my fault, and your aunt's fault too. She acted recklessly both times she came into contact with you, and even led you to do bad things. I'll beat her up in front of you later!"

"?" The green snake looked incredulous.

Chapter 170: White Snake's Voice

Aunt Green Snake feels a little aggrieved, but her grievance is often expressed in the mood of "I'm angry!"

Not to mention that she had already settled the score once for her affair with the younger generation when they were in seclusion, the whole thing was also caused by her sister White Snake, right?

The green snake raised its eyebrows, and immediately strode forward, pried open Bai Sujin's slender hands, took the young man out, and hugged him again.

It feels like stealing a man.

The girl in the green dress with a high ponytail snorted and flipped through the account book with confidence:

"Why are you starting with me? If you really want to settle a score, shouldn't you put my sister first? Who caused Wuji's hair to become messy? And he's been running around and worrying and anxious for almost a year. There's no end to the trouble!"

Bai Sujin was not angry. She looked at her sister's protective look and found it funny. She pretended to be puzzled and asked:

"When I picked up Wuji by the stream and planned to raise him, which girl chased me, glared at me and argued, and advised me to abandon the child and let him fend for himself?"

Aunt Green Snake's expression froze and her momentum suddenly dropped, especially when she talked about this matter in front of Chu Wuji, she really couldn't save face.

But how can I explain this kind of thing? Even if I go back to that time, Qingshe will still persuade her sister to throw the child away, not to meddle in other people's business, and not to be too kind.

Unless she could predict the future and know that the baby would grow up to be the Chu Wuzhi of today, and the Chu Wuzhi who was stubbornly thinking about his mother, the green snake back then would still be suspicious and look at every human in front of her with hostility.

The girl in green skirt secretly glanced at Chu Wuji to confirm his reaction. Seeing that he did not look sad, she felt secretly relieved.

She continued to talk to her sister, White Snake, "The past is the past, and the present is the present. Sister, don't change the subject. We're talking about your own business now! Changing the subject means you're feeling guilty and can't respond directly!"

"Just like you now, Xiaoqing?" Bai Sujin said with a faint smile.

"I..." Aunt Qingshe was speechless, then turned her face away and refused to respond.

Chu Wuji never thought that their meeting again, no, the formal meeting would be like this, his mother Bai Sujin would start arguing with his aunt.

This noise added a touch of liveliness to the old house which had been quiet for many days.

Chu Wuji bent down, picked up Aunt Green Snake with one hand, then walked to Bai Sujin, picked her up as well, and turned to walk towards the inner room.

As he walked through the back door of the pharmacy, he warned, "Be careful not to hit your head."

Aunt Green Snake had only met Chu Wuji twice before. When they met for the second time, he already had the ability to slay a dragon, so he was not very impressed by the changes in Chu Wuji's body.

But Bai Sujin could feel the huge change, which she truly felt after being actually held in his arms.

Before she gave up that body of merit, Chu Wuji was already very strong. With the help of physical training during this period, his body had also developed, and his height, muscles and bones had grown a lot.

It's just that his height and muscles are relatively well-proportioned. When you look at him from a distance, you will feel that Chu Wuzhi has a well-proportioned body. He is tall but not thin, with just the right amount of flesh on his frame. His handsome and cold face suppresses the roughness brought by his muscles.

But when the woman gets close to him, she will inexplicably feel the masculine oppression, as if she is being pressed down by his shadow.

The inner room of the old house,

Chu Wuji walked in quickly, holding his mother and aunt. Returning to the room where mother and son had slept together for many years, he first paused in front of the tea table, hesitated for a moment, and then chose to lie down on the bed.

"We're just a family chatting, so let's not make it as formal as a business meeting. Let's just lie down and talk," he set the tone.

The White Snake and the Green Snake had no objections. The form of chatting was not something the demon clan cared about.

If the Green Snake had not been afraid that her sister would take the opportunity to make fun of her again, she would have wanted to transform into a snake and talk to Chu Wuzhi about his "weakness", and by the way, check the stock level in his granary to see if the fox had stolen her "fat water".

"Wu Ji, what do you want to talk about?" Bai Sujin asked, stroking his hair.

"Of course it's the White Snake Temple, what else could it be?" Chu Wuzhi answered without thinking.

"Xiaoqing had intimate contact with you twice, but she didn't mention it to you?"

"Yes, my aunt said that when we first met. She beat me half to death and helped me soak in the hot springs. She told me that during our casual chat."

"zzzzzz" Aunt Green Snake closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

（|3[▓▓]

Chu Wuji remembered that Aunt Green Snake had made up a story, but she basically just changed the names of the people and omitted the words "White Snake Temple".

Not only that, during the time he was recuperating in the palace, he also heard about the past of the White Snake Temple from Senior Jiujiu.

Sometimes when Senior Jiujiu wanted to have some snacks, he would come over on a cloud and ask him to make some fried rice noodles or some stir-fried vegetables without any hesitation, and he would also tell him about the White Snake Temple.

I also learned about the current situation and retribution of that place, which can be described as "God has his own way"!

But even if Senior Jiujiu and Ning Xianzhi had visited the place in person, it was still not as real as the personal experience of the person involved.

Perhaps the county annals and the oral accounts of the people there have inadvertently embellished their own experiences? We still have to listen to what the White Snake Goddess said back then.

"Okay, since it's been a while since we last chatted, let's talk in detail..."

As Bai Sujin was speaking, she suddenly realized that her son's shoulders were quite broad. She found a comfortable place to rest her head on them, and looked at her sister on the other side with her calm and gentle eyes. She pinched her beautiful nose with one hand, and touched her son's face with the other hand.

These are her two most important family members.

When Bai Sujin talked about the past, she did not mention any indignation. She talked about the joy she felt when she first helped people before the establishment of the White Snake Temple, and the satisfaction she felt when she quelled the drought and flood disasters and saved the people.

Later, in order to express their gratitude, the people built a temple for her and praised her merits. Then she entered the White Snake Temple, and finally the riot occurred.

Compared to Qing Snake's excitement when she was narrating, Bai Sujin was calmer when she recalled it, and the victim who had experienced it personally narrated it all in the calm tone of an observer.

After listening to it, Chu Wuji nodded. It was basically the same as what he had pieced together, but the details were more detailed.

Especially towards that ruffian who caused the trouble, if he had been at the scene, his behavior would not be much different from that of Aunt Green Snake.

Chu Wuji was curious and puzzled, so he asked, "Mom, even a clay figure would have a temper, but it seems like you're not angry at all."

Auntie Qingshe nodded repeatedly, highly agreeing with what she said: "Sister, her personality is like that of an immortal or a god!"

Bai Sujin smiled softly and said:

"I still get angry and sad. At least when I first found you, Wuji, I was also devastated. Otherwise, why would I deliberately come up with such a plan when I left you? It's all because of the shadow in my heart.

It’s just that you have smoothed out many of my negative emotions. Watching you grow up has been the happiest time for me.”

"How happy was I?" Chu Wuzhi recalled and didn't think there was anything special about it.

Bai Sujin felt a little embarrassed, but thinking of her debt to her son, she said frankly:

"When you started to become handsome and tall, Wuji, I was worried that your heart would be attracted by girls of the same age and you would no longer want to travel with me.

But during those years, you would still stay by my side, and towards other girls, you would always look at me with disgust and disdain, saying, "Get away! Don't get in the way of me and Mom." When Mom saw that, she felt especially safe!

Chu Wuji laughed heartily, and suddenly realized that even his mother was full of contradictions, not as calm as he had imagined.

Bai Sujin continued:

"For the past several hundred years, I spent my time cultivating in the White Snake Temple. Later, when I left my hometown and traveled far away, you, Wuji, helped my mother to dispel the haze in her heart."

"I've been thinking about this for many days and nights. In fact, it's not because you, Wuji, need your mother that I've been with you until you grow up, but because your mother needs you!"

"This is also what Mother said when she argued with Xiaoqing in the early years!"

Chu Wuji was truly surprised. It was the first time he heard his mother's inner voice. He looked at his aunt at a loss and asked:

"Auntie, is that so?"

Aunt Green Snake recalled for a moment and said with certainty:

"Don't believe it. When my sister and I argued, she said, 'I can raise him if I want, Xiaoqing, don't worry about it.' It pissed me off so much I still remember it clearly! If I were a human woman, I'd have been so angry that my periods would have been disrupted."

"..." Bai Sujin's expression of emotion gradually disappeared, and she looked at her sister with indifference.

"......" Chu Wuji also had an expressionless face, but he was not angry.

He never doubted Bai Sujin's love for him. His expressionless face at this moment was due to his speechlessness and worry about his aunt.

Aunt Green Snake is indeed a straightforward person and doesn't know how to be tactful. No wonder she slapped me with her tail at that time.

She was probably really looking forward to being punished. They had just chatted for so long and had shifted away from the topic of the pharmacy. Now her aunt wanted Bai Sujin to bring up old matters again!

Chapter 171 I really don’t want to practice anymore, you are unhappy again

Chu Wuji was afraid that his aunt would be beaten. If his aunt was angry, she might provoke Ning Xianzhi, Tianhu Niangniang and others, leading to a bad situation.

He quickly helped Aunt Green Snake to cover up and attract Bai Sujin's attention:

"Ahem, mother, what are your plans for the White Snake Temple from now on? You can't be rebuilding it, right?"

Rebuilding the White Snake Temple... Bai Sujin had never thought of this option after she ran away. It sounded ridiculous just by sounding it. She had finally gotten rid of the influence of the incense and merits and reshaped her demon body. How could she possibly go back to her old ways?

Bai Sujin pondered for a moment and then asked, "Of course, I'm going to seek reconciliation from the Buddhist temple there and that Tianlong monk. Wuji doesn't think I'm planning to 'let go of the past and forgive the past,' do I?"

To be honest, when I saw your calm state of mind just now, I really felt that you had a bit of "holy" quality, and I didn't sense any hostility or murderous intent at all.

Chu Wuji didn't change the subject. He said seriously and firmly, "I'm going to help too!"

Bai Sujin raised her head, looking at her son with gentle and graceful eyes, but she found that the green snake's hand was approaching Chu Wuji's vitality, so she slapped her sister's hand away in annoyance, and then she put back her gentle and graceful expression and continued to look at Chu Wuji.

"I didn't say you couldn't come along, so why are you so excited? If I didn't allow you to go, you wouldn't agree to all the skills you worked so hard to acquire, right?"

"Of course not. It's not easy to practice! How can you not let me show it and help you and my aunt?" Chu Wuji smiled with relief.

He remembered that over the years, Bai Sujin had helped him block those demons and monsters and prevented him from coming into contact with those magical things. He thought his mother would stop him from getting involved in these things.

I didn't expect him to be so reasonable. He agreed right away without even entering into the negotiation stage!

"When will we set out to find a job?" he asked.

"It'll have to be after the New Year at least, so you can spend the New Year peacefully, right?" Bai Sujin held down her sister's restless hand.

"It's all fine, as long as you don't make such a fuss now, and just quietly take Aunt Green Snake away after the New Year! I know the location of the White Snake Temple now, and I can run there by myself!"

Of course Bai Sujin would not do that. Everything had been revealed, and Chu Wuji still recognized his friends from the immortal family, so it would be difficult for him to abandon him again.

She let out a long sigh, and the turbid air that had been suppressed in her heart was released from her soft and thin lips, which were as soft as jade. The worries in her heart before officially meeting her son were relieved a lot, and her mood was definitely not as calm and indifferent as she appeared on the surface.

"We've pretty much finished talking about Mom. If there's anything else you don't understand, you can always ask Xiaoqing and me later. Now it's Wuji's turn!"

"What's my turn?" Chu Wuji blinked and didn't understand at first.

"It's your turn to complain~"

Bai Sujin finished speaking softly, and in the blink of an eye she transformed into a graceful and round white snake, with scales like milky jade pieces. She slid behind Chu Wuji and then changed back into human form, letting him lean on her plump bosom.

Just now she was resting her head on her son's shoulder, but now that Chu Wuji said so, she let her son rest his head on her arms. Her embrace, filled with the warmth of maternal love, seemed ready to fully embrace her son's grievances and longings.

"No matter what concerns my mother had for leaving secretly, it has caused Wuji a lot of worry and anxiety. It's only natural for her to feel resentful!"

Aunt Green Snake looked at her sister White Snake's behavior and attitude, and complained in her heart:

One moment she lies on Chu Wuzhi like a delicate young woman in the misty rain of Jiangnan, and the next moment she treats him like a child and comforts him. No wonder Chu Wuzhi's mind is full of her.

However, as a fellow snake spirit, Green Snake could understand that this was a natural action of her sister's and it was not deliberate at all.

Snakes are used to lying down and relaxing when they are quiet. Just now, the white snake was focused on telling the story of the past, so she simply lay down in Chu Wuji's arms. Now it was her turn to be the audience, so she had to let Chu Wuji see her serious attitude, so naturally she couldn't lie down lazily anymore.

Green Snake wanted to complain, but thought it would be better to remain silent. After all, it was the time for the younger generation to complain. If she was not in a good mood, it would only sow the seeds of conflict for future interactions.

No more jokes when you're talking!

"..."

Chu Wuji smiled slightly, and in silence, he raised his hand and played with his mother's black hair, not knowing how to express his grievances.

If there really was that kind of emotion accumulated in his heart, he would indeed be able to say a lot of resentful and annoying words, but the key point was... Chu Wuzhi felt that he was in a good mood recently and really did not have any negative emotions.

Looking back at the confusion he felt some time ago, all the surging emotions were indeed strong and accumulated in his chest. However, by a strange combination of circumstances, first Ning Xianzhi pretended to be "Bai Sujin", and then his aunt's behavior, both of which resolved his confusion to varying degrees.

If you force yourself to complain even though you clearly don't feel any bitterness in your heart, your emotions won't be genuine enough, as if you're trying to deceive your mother into caring about you.

He laughed and said frankly:
