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

"I'm just curious and amazed." Chu Wuji replied seriously.

The Fox Goddess hadn't realized what he was focusing on yet. She blinked in confusion, with a charming half-smile on her lips.

Chu Wuji explained: "The temperament, this body is still Princess Jing'an's, but when the Sky Fox Lady appeared, that unique feeling immediately changed."

"Of course!" Goddess Sky Fox thought he was marveling at something.

Just when Chu Wuji and Princess Jing'an were recuperating, Goddess Tianhu quietly took over the body, but she was not too abrupt. She took advantage of the time when Princess Jing'an's consciousness began to become confused, her emotions were bewildered, and even her eyes were blurred by Chu Wuji, and then she started "training" for her.

It is estimated that Princess Jing'an will have some vague memories when she wakes up, but she will think that she was too forgetful.

The Fox Goddess had had enough fun, so she no longer dragged Chu Wuji around. Instead, she snuggled in Chu Wuji's arms like a delicate and weak little girl, resting on her head.

"I have to say, the human race has so many names. After mother, there's also mother concubine and queen mother. There are quite a lot of variations~" As she spoke, she winked at Chu Wuji to hint.

Chu Wuji had gradually gotten rid of his wooden attributes. After thinking for a few breaths, he understood what the Heavenly Fox Queen meant. She wanted him to call her "Mother" a few times, which he would find fresh and interesting.

He was very cooperative: "Do you want me to call you 'Sky Fox Princess' or 'Mother Princess'?"

The Sky Fox Goddess was very satisfied with his understanding. She smiled with her fox eyes, patted his head as a reward, and said:

"The latter title will do. The title of Princess is unworthy of me. Besides, my young master isn't a king. Which prince's consort do you want me to be?"

"After a while, I considered myself a bandit mountain king. Does that count as a king?"

The Fox Goddess laughed dumbly and said obediently:

"If my young master says so, then I should indeed accept a 'Princess'. I'll take the title first anyway, and make your mothers jealous. But for now, I'll call you 'Mother' first. I can change the title when I get tired of it!"

Since other mothers were mentioned, Chu Wuji also wanted to ask tentatively if it was possible to ease the relationship. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to do anything since he was caught between the mothers.

He began by saying sweetly, "My beautiful mother, how can you... not quarrel with my white snake mother?"

Chu Wuji didn't even dare to hope that their relationship would get better, as long as they didn't start quarreling or fighting every time they met.

The Fox Goddess pinched the young man's chin, an innocent look on her pretty face, and said, "I don't want to argue with her. I don't have the mood to waste my energy on her."

Chu Wuji didn't dare to refute, but he clearly remembered that when he was watching the thunder tribulation at Tinglei Ridge last time, Bai Sujin was scolded by the Sky Fox Queen as soon as she appeared, and she was stunned by the scolding.

"Then why were you so angry before?"

"I missed the name~"

"Mother concubine..."

After hearing Chu Wuji's words, Empress Tianhu finally explained, "It's not that I have a problem with her. I'm angry with her because of you. That's the only reason. Have you forgotten?"

"I remember, I dare not forget..." Chu Wuji smiled apologetically.

"My young master always kept me in mind, and I was very happy. But when he rushed into the golden lightning tribulation like he was risking his life, I was very angry!"

Goddess Tianhu did not continue speaking, because she did not hide what she was thinking. This was the only reason why she scolded Bai Sujin. She had already explained it to Chu Wuji once before, and saying it again would only be repeating what she had said before.

At that time, I said everything I needed to say and scold, and it was clear and logical without any exaggeration. That's why she didn't bother to pay attention to it afterwards!

"wrong......"

"Mother, what's wrong? What have you thought of?" Chu Wuji became nervous.

"Apart from the golden lightning tribulation, it was me who taught you how to open your heart. Don't hold doubts in your heart. It's so tiring!"

This should be referring to the night when she accompanied Chu Wuji back to the capital, and she racked her brains to teach him to boldly ask Bai Sujin about the White Snake Temple.

Don’t always have the mentality of “respecting other people’s concerns, otherwise the relationship will become distant if you ask too many questions.”

Chu Wuji's bad habit was "attributed" to the fact that Bai Sujin was always worried about exposing her identity as a snake demon, but she couldn't make up excuses, so she was always vague and avoided talking about it. As a result, Chu Wuji didn't dare to ask about Bai Sujin's affairs in the days that followed, and gradually got used to suppressing his curiosity.

Bai Sujin definitely didn't do it on purpose, but this only means... the demon race does tend to cause problems in human children.

"It was indeed hard for my mother at that time!" The young man felt funny and embarrassed when he recalled the incident.

"That's good to know! Did you meet with her yesterday and personally inquire about the White Snake Temple?"

"I asked! I asked very naturally! I didn't even hesitate, and I didn't worry about what she would think!" Chu Wuji was inexplicably proud.

Seeing his foolish pride in this matter, the Fox Goddess couldn't help wanting to hit him, and scolded him with a smile:

"Next time I'll really give you a good beating in front of Bai Sujin. I'll give you a lot of bad habits!"

Chu Wuji was ashamed. He had only wanted to mediate the conflict, to get Lady Fox to stop being so hostile towards Bai Sujin. But if Lady Fox did what she did, the conflict would escalate and intensify!

He didn't dare to linger on this question, and immediately asked about his doubts about cultivation and told him his thoughts before going to bed.

The Fox Goddess snorted softly, knowing that he was feigning deafness and trying to change the subject, she still answered:

"Eating red dates won't work, but killing while plundering the essence of Qi and blood will work."

It is not realistic to replenish qi and blood by eating red dates. Even if the red dates are grown in the immortal medicine garden, the effect is still limited.

It is necessary to refine a very high-grade elixir to be effective, but nowadays alchemists basically cannot refine elixirs for qi and blood, and most of them refine elixirs for spiritual energy.

What kind of cultivator could suffer from anemia or excessive menstrual bleeding? Physical injuries can be healed with a little practice of Qigong.

However, while killing monsters and plundering their essence, this method was a beautiful concept, but in reality it was very difficult. Big monsters were hard to kill, and even harder to find. The little essence of small monsters was not enough for Chu Wuji to fill his teeth.

But if you are lucky enough to encounter a big monster with a thick health bar, you can indeed try this method.

"Looks like I really have to go to the Lihuo Mountains and try to become the 'King of the Mountain'!"

Chu Wuji was lost in thought when the Fox Goddess held his face in her hands and pulled it in front of her, with their faces very close to each other.

"Young Master, that White Snake is so serious, she's become a worshipped deity. Pretend to be angry and ask her to heal you, and see how she reacts!"

When the Sky Fox Queen said this, her eyes twinkled and she became very interested!

When Chu Wuji saw her expression, he knew that something was wrong. The Sky Fox Queen was really playing with this matter, but wasn't this just playing with fire?

Although Bai Sujin knew about the affair between him and his aunt, she has not yet expressed her attitude or explanation, and has not said whether he can continue to act recklessly in the future.

......According to Aunt Green Snake's personality, even if Bai Sujin objected, she would definitely still secretly be intimate with Chu Wuji.

We have just reunited and the tender time is not over yet. If we make such a big deal out of it, it will be difficult to resolve!

Chu Wuji swallowed his saliva and chose to play dead:

"Mother, I fell asleep, my energy and blood are depleted, I feel so weak..."

Chapter 176 Shopping in December

Another day passed,

After getting up in the morning, Princess Jing'an felt that she had made progress. Her memories before she fell asleep were so clear that she didn't have that confused contrast of "why I am so much more tired than before I went to bed" when she got up in the morning. It was just that Chu Wuji made her mind go blank several times, and it took her a while to come back to her senses.

She had an indescribable sense of...accomplishment, as if she had witnessed her own progress, and could even adapt to the inexhaustible energy of Chu Wuzhi.

"Wu Ji, what are your recent plans after Madam Bai comes back?" Princess Jing'an asked in a gentle voice.

"Take her and my aunt around the capital. When she's almost there, bring her to the palace. She's feeling a bit... like she's been resurrected from the dead. She wants to visit all the places again and get used to them."

Chu Wuji tried hard to find an excuse. After all, in the eyes of Princess Jing'an and Yao'er, it was a bit strange and unfamiliar that Madam Bai never came to the palace to reminisce and meet.

Princess Jing'an had no experience of resurrection, so she could only try her best to show her understanding and nodded.

"Okay, if there's anything you need help with, Wuji, just tell me. If you need help repairing the old house or cleaning the house, that's fine!"

The two didn't chat for too long. Princess Jing'an still had to clean up her mess, so Chu Wuji went to restrain the little princess and play with her, otherwise she would rush over to find her mother later.

Chu Wuji remembered that he wanted to tinker with a big goose, so he took his mother and aunt out for a walk under the pretext of purchasing something.

After washing up, Chu Wuji took Xiao Yaoer back to the old house. While chatting with the girl on the way, he found an excuse:

"Yao'er, Aunt Bai probably doesn't remember you. She's come back from the dead this time and lost some of her memory."

Princess Yao'er was very sensible. She held the man's hand and before she had time to think about the doubts in her heart, she comforted Chu Wuji:

"Brother, it's okay. Aunt Bai's safe return is already a blessing from God! I remember when she was alive, bah, the last time she came to the palace, she seemed to say that she had a hidden illness inherited from her ancestors and was prone to memory loss. At least she didn't forget brother!"

"That's right..."

This girl was so well-behaved and sensible that Chu Wuji felt embarrassed and could only rub her fine hair.

"Brother, why don't you let Yaoer go to see Aunt Bai with fox ears? It would be so cute. Maybe Aunt Bai would mistake Yaoer for a fellow demon~"

This won’t do. If mother and aunt have some opinions about Goddess of the Sky Fox, they might vent their anger on you, little girl!

Chu Wuji said with a serious face, as someone who has experienced it:

"The demons don't trust each other. Don't mention the Sky Fox Goddess for now, okay?"

"Got it~"

*

In the old house,

Bai Sujin and Aunt Qingshe had been waiting for him to come. When they sensed Chu Wuji's approaching breath, the two sisters stood up to greet him.

Chu Wuji saw the two of them as soon as he entered the door, and a smile was on his face.

Wen Yaoer looked around curiously. She recognized the pretty woman in the white dress. It was none other than her aunt Bai Sujin. She was elegant, quiet, and gentle, just like the last time they met.

The girl in the green skirt should be the aunt my brother mentioned. She leaned aside with her arms crossed. She looked heroic yet charming, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes. Her manners were graceful and she had a boldness that girls don't have. She waved her sleeves in the wind, acting like a free and easy female knight.

The little girl naturally likes to be close to beautiful things. She shook Chu Wuzhi's hand and whispered to her brother to take her to get to know Aunt Bai and her aunt again.

Chu Wuji was worried that Yao'er would be restrained and nervous, but it seemed that he was worrying too much. He smiled and said:

"Mother, you may have forgotten that this is Wen Yaoer, the daughter of the Jing'an Palace, whom you knew before, ahem..."

Bai Sujin knew that the palace was the one that looked after her son, and that it was a favor to her son, so she tried to make amends:

"Actually, I have some impression of her. She seems to be a girl who likes cats very much, right?"

The little princess was surprised. She ran over and took Bai Sujin's hand, saying excitedly:

"Yes, yes, Aunt Bai, you really still remember me. My brother said you had forgotten everything!"

Aunt Green Snake secretly complained: Little girl came here to walk the cat yesterday, and I know you like cats.

Chu Wuji told them about his plans for today, and they happily agreed. There was nothing wrong with going shopping at the market.

Bai Sujin and Aunt Qingshe had nothing urgent to deal with at the moment. The only thing they had to do was to go back after the New Year to settle old accounts.

Just when they met and talked yesterday, Bai Sujin felt like someone was trying to snatch her son away, which made her a little depressed.

If the time is right, I really need to talk to the other two women.

I have just returned to the capital to meet Chu Wuji, so don’t think about so many troubles for now!

The four of them immediately went out shopping together to see what was going on in the morning market in Beijing.

After the twelfth lunar month, the weather gets colder, but the daytime becomes more lively.

The heat from the coming and going of people melted the snow on the road, and shouts were heard everywhere.

This is the time to stock up on New Year's goods. Families who want to buy chickens, ducks, and geese will take advantage of this period to buy them in advance and keep them in their own cages, waiting to slaughter them for the New Year. Otherwise, if you really wait until New Year's Eve to buy them, the prices will be much higher. This is the shopping time for the wealthy, and ordinary people can't bear to part with the meat.

Chu Wuji specifically chose to visit a few shops of his acquaintances, but they were all busy entertaining customers. Even the owner and waiter of the Baxian Restaurant were sweating profusely.

Although they didn't notice Chu Wuji, Chu Wuji still felt good when he saw that they were safe and sound!

Aunt Qing Snake didn't know these people and was curious why Wu Ji was shopping but not buying anything. It seemed like he wanted to say hello but didn't come forward.

Bai Sujin remembered these people. During the years he lived in the capital, Chu Wuzhi relied on his fishing skills to exchange a lot of good things from these shops.

Those seemingly ordinary daily necessities were replaced with the best quality ones after Chu Wuzhi's tinkering, and he served delicious food to her every day.

"Wu Ji, have you learned all the recipes of the Eight Immortals Restaurant?"

"It's about the same, but I didn't spend the time to learn some of the more ordinary ones. I looked down on them! Even if I learned how to make the finished dishes, I would be embarrassed to serve them to my mother~" Chu Wuji boasted a little and laughed.

"Yes, my brother's cooking skills are so good that only a god would come to the palace to eat and drink!" Wen Yaoer actively participated in the conversation, and she wanted to respond to whatever Chu Wuji said.

The little princess was talking about the Drunken and Dancing Taoist priest. At that time, the Drunken and Dancing Taoist priest had been drinking with "Princess Jing'an", so the little princess was deeply impressed.

But when Bai Sujin heard it, she subconsciously judged it to be Ning Xianzhi.

She couldn't help but frown, feeling inexplicably upset, and sighed: "Ah..."

Chu Wu Ji used to do his best to bring all kinds of delicious food to her, but now there are other women sharing Chu Wu Ji's meticulous care with her.

If Chu Wuji had found a girl of the same age, a young woman of similar age, Bai Sujin would not have thought there was anything wrong with it. She thought that her son would grow up and there would always be a day when he would seek a partner. But how come two women appeared and competed to be his mother?

Bai Sujin's good mood when she went shopping suddenly dissipated a lot.
