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

"Mom, I have no complaints now. I'm very happy to see you and my aunt! I can't bring myself to feel sad all of a sudden..."

Bai Sujin was puzzled, her two beautiful eyebrows furrowed. She had not expected her son to respond in this way. Her expression became more serious, and she said in a warm and sincere voice:

"How can you not have complaints? Don't be ashamed. Bitterness in your heart doesn't stop you from being a man. Girls outside would say you're weak, but in your mother's arms, you don't have to force yourself. You can vent every little bit of your distress!"

Chu Wuji also sat up, hugged his mother seriously, and said with certainty:

"I'm really not dissatisfied! If I had to say it, I've poured out all my bitterness, but there were all sorts of accidents that happened before, and I took it out on others...

But even if it's wrong, I don't have any complaints at the moment. If I still force myself to say that I'm wronged, it would be a bit of a complaint without any reason."

Aunt Qingshe smiled faintly. Chu Wuzhi was a really honest child. If he pretended to be pitiful and put on an expression as if something sad was pouring out of his heart, even if he made an excessive request, his sister would probably agree hesitantly.

But he never plays tricks on his own people and never plays this trick.

Green Snake noticed that her sister still didn't understand what it meant to "take the blame on others", so she whispered a reminder:

"It's that female immortal and the fox spirit. They're up to no good and have corrupted Wu Ji, but they did help him break his depression before."

Green Snake's words implicitly removed herself from the picture. She was the second person to "take over" the body of merit, and she took the initiative to transfer the merit and fortune to Chu Wuji.

Bai Sujin immediately understood. No wonder Chu Wuji had two more mothers. A trace of worry emerged in her heart, and she tried to ask:

"Wuji, if mother says she wants to take you away, will you go?"

"Uh..." Chu Wuji hesitated and found it difficult to answer immediately.

When Bai Sujin saw her son's reaction, her graceful face was filled with surprise, her expression froze for a few breaths, and her heart skipped a beat.

The woman's bare hands in her sleeves subconsciously clenched, and her translucent snow-white skin looked slightly pale.

More than a year ago, the answer to this question did not need to be worried about, and even asking seemed redundant. Chu Wuji's strong attachment to her forced Bai Sujin to rack her brains and come up with such a "faked death" plan.

Otherwise, while she was trying to rebuild her demon body, her son would be too sad to find out that she had "died".

Now Chu Wuji should be starting to learn to look at the scenery elsewhere as she had originally expected, gradually moving away from Bai Sujin, finding his own life, and no longer focusing on her, his mother.

This scene was not an unexpected incident, and it could even be said to be completely in line with Bai Sujin's previous vision. However, when things really developed as expected, something felt a little wrong.

Can't seem to be happy...?

Chapter 172: Aunt: Sister, Wu Ji and I will avoid you when we are doing things.

Chu Wuji began to narrate what happened after his body of merit came back to life. In fact, Aunt Green Snake had already explained the general process clearly, and she just added some personal feelings of Chu Wuji and more details.

After all, Aunt Green Snake left at some point, so it was difficult for her to know everything in detail.

Although Chu Wuji was frank, he didn't dare to tell anyone about what happened between him and the Fox Goddess in the house.

Although Bai Sujin and Aunt Green Snake could more or less see through the secret between him and the Sky Fox Queen, they could do nothing about it.

"As for cultivating the Tao and cultivating immortality, even though I haven't made any progress at all, Master Ning is... giving me his wholehearted guidance. However, tempering my physical body is of the greatest help to me right now."

"This should be considered a shortcut, right? But there's no other way. If I practice honestly, I guess I'll have to avoid any little demons and ghosts I see now!"

Chu Wuji was so exhausted from talking that he ended his story by extending the thread of his experience to the Western Regions. It was not convenient to mention what happened in the palace.

Bai Sujin listened carefully most of the time, but there were times when her mind wandered off, and she was helplessly pondering the changes in her son.

Chu Wuji was definitely still close to his mother, a closeness without selfishness or barriers, and it was not much different from the past. However, that slight change made Bai Sujin uncomfortable, but she couldn't bring it up.

The other two women had only known Chu Wu Ji for a short time, and they kept calling him his mother. Although it was a bit presumptuous, they did share Chu Wu Ji's sadness.

Helped him get over his great sadness and led him in practicing.

Bai Sujin had a hard time refuting their abruptness...

"Mom, you are distracted. What are you thinking about?" Chu Wuzhi suddenly asked.

"Sister, this is not good. You are too careless!"

Aunt Green Snake next to her was quite serious, because she was not aware of some of the experiences, and she was also afraid that Chu Wuzhi was stupid. What if he described in detail how he and his aunt were entangled, wouldn't that cause her to be scolded?

Fortunately, this brat was smart enough to omit what should be omitted.

Bai Sujin came back to her senses and saw that her sister Qingshe had quietly wrapped her thighs around Chu Wuzhi again. She flicked her forehead in annoyance.

"I only got distracted after listening to Wu Ji's words. I was distracted because I felt that it was not easy for him during this period!"

Chu Wuji naturally didn't take it to heart. When he was speaking just now, he would look at Bai Sujin from time to time. Every once in a while, he would meet the eyes of his white snake mother, knowing that she would listen, sigh, and then continue to listen carefully.

Seeing that Bai Sujin had no intention of expressing her feelings, he did not insist on asking. Instead, he curiously poked his mother's beautiful body, pinched her slender hands and feet, and confirmed the authenticity.

"Mom, this demonic body you've reshaped doesn't seem much different from your previous body of merit... Has your cultivation level decreased?"

Bai Sujin stretched out her arms, letting him continue to observe her, and explained with a faint smile:

"My cultivation hasn't changed much, it's just that I'm missing the blessing of incense and merit. It's like when you go fishing and forget to bring bait, it doesn't affect your chance to catch some weird things."

This metaphor is inappropriate and a bit strange, but Chu Wuji understood it and roughly understood Bai Sujin's current situation. Anyway, it means that the impact is not significant.

Aunt Green Snake didn't quite understand her sister White Snake's metaphor. She was afraid Chu Wuji didn't understand, so she helped explain:

“The local people of the White Snake Temple are now suffering and have started praying again, pretending to be pitiful and asking for sympathy. The incense connection we once had will carry the local voices over and disturb my sister’s mood.

The merits of the incense can't be thrown away, and I can't ignore them even if I want to. If I don't reshape my demon body, sooner or later my sister will become irritable and irritable, and she might even develop a demon in her heart!"

"No wonder mother often sighed and frowned for no apparent reason for a while." Chu Wuzhi thanked his aunt for the explanation.

My aunt's attitude towards outsiders and relatives is indeed very different. Now that we are familiar with each other, she will explain even the smallest problem in detail without any hesitation.

Thinking back to the aunt I met when I first arrived at the waterfall cave...she felt so strange!

Chu Wuji asked curiously again: "What is the inner demon? Is it the anger that has been suppressed for a long time?"

"A bit like that. In short, their temperament suddenly changes, and they may even go crazy. When their inner demon is weak, it's just the occasional evil thought that flashes through their mind. When their inner demon is strong, they may come out and do evil."

"So scary! Does my aunt have a demon?"

"What kind of inner demons could I have? If I get mad at someone, I'll just beat them up. I'll feel better after the beating." Aunt Green Snake was very open-minded and calm.

She would never hold a grudge overnight. If she really wanted to hold a grudge overnight, wouldn't she have to calculate the interest? She was angry for an extra night!

For hundreds of years, the Green Snake's longest-lasting worry was probably the incident at the White Snake Temple and the strained relationship between herself and her sister, the White Snake.

Chu Wuji inexplicably envied his aunt's character. He looked out the window with a smile, and suddenly found that the winter day was gradually setting, faintly turning into the orange color of the sunset.

Time flies so fast, I feel like we haven’t talked enough and there is always something to say.

"Mom, aunt, you will be in the capital during this period, right? Living in the old house?" he confirmed.

We can't just chat, we have to ask about daily life.

"Yes, I'll stay with you until the New Year. Judging from the state of this room, I think you haven't stayed here overnight recently, right?"

"Well, I've been staying in the palace recently. It's the Jing'an Palace that I met because of the little white tiger. The Sky Fox Queen is also there. I'm afraid you two will quarrel, so I'll take you there to meet her in a couple of days. You came all the way here, so you should rest for a few days first..."

Chu Wuji smiled awkwardly.

The Fox Goddess had scolded him harshly before, and there was a fear that sparks would fly when they met. However, this was an obstacle that could not be avoided. Since they were both in the capital, the big monsters could dodge past him in the blink of an eye, so they would meet sooner or later.

He secretly observed the reactions of his mother and aunt. Aunt Green Snake snorted coldly, while his mother Bai Sujin lowered her eyes and nodded, indicating that she understood.

Chu Wuji continued, "Then I'll go to the market to buy some vegetables and make dinner for you later!"

Seeing her son's initiative and eagerness, Bai Sujin finally felt that she had left the quiet retreat and returned to her family.

She smiled lightly and said, "Sure, Xiaoqing and I will go with you to see what changes have taken place in the market of Lihuo Capital."

Aunt Green Snake wanted to be lazy, so she said tentatively, "I want to transform back into a snake and hide on Wuji's arm. It can be considered as shopping together. It must be tiring to fly all the way here!"

This is mainly to seek the opinion of sister White Snake.

Bai Sujin nodded in agreement. At this point, she no longer emphasized the rules. She simply reminded him, "Then I'll change too. But Xiaoqing, don't go anywhere else!"

Two rays of light, one white and one blue, flew into Chu Wuji's sleeves and then transformed into two beauties among snakes, winding around his arms, cold and smooth.

Chu Wuji felt a little strange, but he quickly adapted.

There were two snakes embroidered on the sleeves of the black warrior robe, and now there were two snakes wrapped inside the sleeves as well.

He bent his arms, twisted his sleeves toward himself, and looked at the two beautiful snakes inside, smiling at each other.

However, in their snake form, they couldn't make many expressions, and it was difficult for them to smile. The White Snake and the Green Snake could only stick their heads out and use their moist, slender tongues to tease his face to express their closeness.

"Then let's go out. Tell me what dishes you want to eat, but don't be too loud, it might scare passers-by."

After shopping, I start to make a fire and cook.

But now it is much easier to make a fire and heat it up. Bai Sujin just needs to cast a spell. She felt a little ashamed when casting the spell, as she was indeed recalling the "suffering" she had suffered in the past years.

When the dinner was over and Chu Wuji cleaned up the dishes, it was already night.

"Mother, Auntie, I'm going back to the palace first. I have to at least tell them you're back. They're the ones who take good care of me. I can't let them wait for nothing. I'll come back tomorrow morning."

Aunt Green Snake still had some opinions, but she chose to remain silent for the time being and not express them.

Bai Sujin maintained her usual reasonableness and nodded, saying, "Okay, the little girl who called me 'Aunt Bai' this morning can also be brought over to meet me."

After Chu Wuzhi left the old house, the house became quiet. There was no wind or snow tonight, and there was no sound at all unless people spoke. It was very quiet.

Bai Sujin has been with her sister for a long time and will not deliberately find topics to talk about in order to appear lively.

The two of them lay down on the bed one after another.

Auntie Qing Snake only then vented out what was in her heart: "Why is it like we've split up? We came here but we didn't even spend the night together, tsk!"

She really wanted to sneak away to find Chu Wuji, but she was worried that she would run into the nine-tailed fox and have a quarrel. If the first formal reunion became tense, it would also make things difficult for Chu Wuji.

Bai Sujin was stunned when she heard the description of "separation of the family", and found that it was quite appropriate.

We live nearby, but we have to spend the night separately. Isn't that like separating the family?

"Is Wuji used to being beaten by you, Xiaoqing, or is he really so adaptable that he's not afraid of our demon bodies at all?"

The girl in the green dress put her clothes at the end of the bed, and a green bellyband covered her snow-white and soft skin. She said:

"I'm not saying this, Wuji has been through so much. He's seen ghosts, immortals, demons going through tribulations, and even killed a big fat dragon. How could he still be afraid of our snake bodies?"

"Too......"

Bai Sujin had to admit that she was worrying too much, which was why she had gone through so much trouble and ended up in this situation today.

If I had tried to be honest with him at that time, perhaps the female fairy from the Shenxiao Sect and the ancient sky fox that was inexplicably stranded in the human world would not have had the chance to take advantage of the situation.

But Bai Sujin was so worried and entangled before because she loved this child so much. She was afraid that Chu Wuji would be scared away as soon as he saw her true form, which would be too hurtful.

The experience of a similar thing at the White Snake Temple was enough. After more than ten years of traveling and sightseeing, I finally recovered my composure. I really don’t dare to try it again.

At this point, what should have passed has passed, and what should have happened has happened. Bai Sujin can only put it aside for the time being. At least her son is still very close to her.

And those two women...after all, they had done Chu Wuji a favor and had made great contributions, so it was hard to blame them.

"Sister, when Wu Ji and I were being intimate, should you go to the inn to avoid it, or should we go to the inn?" Qing Snake suddenly realized that this question was very important and serious.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Go to sleep and rest!"

"Why such a big reaction? I was just afraid you'd be angry. If you don't like watching, I must bring Wu Ji to hide from you..."

"You still said that!"

Chapter 173: Strive for a peaceful year!

On the way back to the palace, Chu Wuji ran into Pavilion Master Fan's carriage.

As the year draws to a close, Pavilion Master Fan has less work to do and has more time to visit guests and drink tea at various places - even though she is quite free on weekdays.

Chu Wuzhi and her didn't have much to talk about. Even though they had dinner together at the Holy Queen's house last time, they had very little interaction with each other, and just exchanged a few normal greetings.

Probably...

"Hey, isn't this Pavilion Master Fan? Have you eaten?"

"Not yet. Master Chu, are you going to cook for me some crispy goose? My daughter is not here, and it's a good night and an auspicious time!"

To those who didn't know, this conversation sounded strange, like a scene from the Jing'an Palace, where they were discussing some unspeakable secrets with their daughter without telling her mother. It was unkind and ungentlemanly!

But when it comes to Pavilion Master Fan and her daughter, they basically eat all the food by themselves and don't give the girl any meat.

Under normal circumstances, Chu Wu Ji would definitely refuse. If a dish is cooked frequently, it will become a bit boring and the fun of cooking will be lost. But his mother and aunt are back, and they have never tasted it, so he can cook a meal and make a portion for Pavilion Master Fan as well.
