"Hehe, Master's wife, I see you two playing mahjong together every day, but your skill level is just so-so!"

Counting the spirit stones in her hand, Chen Haohao smiled smugly and said, "Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, my mahjong skills are... Excuse me, if I were to declare this place Chen Haohao Square, I wonder if my fellow masters' wives would have any objections?"

"Hey, if you're going to play cards, just play cards. Why do you have to be so gossipy?"

Seeing that she had been dealt another bad hand, Chi Lian couldn't help but vent her anger on Chen Haohao.

If this were any other day, perhaps other mistresses would have spoken up for Chen.

But right now...

Sorry, this girl is just too annoying.

Not only did no girl speak up for her, but Bao Si even chided her with her own words, saying, "Chi Lian, you don't understand. She's just a child. That's how she is. She finally managed to get such a small advantage from us, how could she not be smug?"

"Alright, Chi Lian and Bao Si."

Seeing that her younger sister and Chi Lian were both looking at Hao Hao with hostility, Da Ji, after a long-awaited moment of self-touching, tried to comfort them with a wry smile: "Hao Hao is still a child, why are you getting angry with a child!"

"I knew that Master Daji was the best to me!"

Unexpectedly, even her teacher's wife was willing to speak up for her at this time, and Chen Haohao was immediately moved to tears.

But the next second, Daji changed the subject and asked with a friendly expression, "Well, your master Ruyi just taught you a fist technique called Shark King Fang yesterday, how is your practice going?"

"I……"

He shrank back guiltily, his eyes involuntarily avoiding Daji's gaze.

At this moment, Chen Haohao desperately wanted a big pocket.

Why did you have to provoke the teachers' wives for no reason?

"What, you didn't practice?"

Seeing Chen Haohao stammering and unable to explain herself, Daji's smile became even more amiable.

"Um, Master Daji, why should a swordsman like me practice fist techniques?"

"Oh?"

Looking behind Chen Haohao, Daji couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

At the same time, a very cold "Oh?" came from behind Chen Haohao.

"hiss--"

Upon hearing the "Oh?" from behind her, Chen Haohao couldn't help but gasp several times.

It's a close call that Baifangfeng almost produced a greenhouse effect.

"Ruyi, Master's wife, why are you here?"

With a fawning rub of her hands, Chen Haohao then smiled and placed her hand on Ruyi's shoulder.

"Mistress Ruyi, you said that carrying such a heavy weight on your chest often makes your shoulders sore, right? How about I give you a good shoulder massage?"

"Heh, you're a sword cultivator who practices swordsmanship, so how come you've also learned your father's massage techniques?"

With a blank expression, Ruyi raised the corners of her mouth and then used the words Chen Haohao had just said to Daji to ask her a question.

"Th-that, Madam Ruyi, I-I am..."

I thought for a long time, but I still couldn't come up with a suitable reason.

So, Chen Haohao had a sudden inspiration and knelt down in front of Ruyi: "Master Ruyi, Haohao knows she was wrong. Haohao shouldn't have been so playful."

"You're quite clever, aren't you?"

Looking at the girl who was sincerely apologizing and was practically about to hug his leg, if it were an ordinary person, perhaps this matter would have been let go.

Unfortunately, Ruyi (a symbol of good fortune) is not something that ordinary people can easily obtain.

In Ruyi's mind, "spare the rod and spoil the child" is her educational philosophy.

As the saying goes, a doting mother spoils her child. If she's spoiled now, who knows how arrogant this girl will become in the future.

"Alright, alright, your master's wife is asking you. Do you really think that as a sword cultivator, one doesn't need to understand or learn other spells, or fist techniques, or sword techniques?"

"I was just joking with Master Daji on the spot~"

That's irrelevant!

Pulling out a ruler from who-knows-where, Ruyi slapped it across her calloused little hand, which was covered in calluses from years of sword practice.

"Master, Master's wife~" Chen Haohao pouted in pain and quickly blinked her big eyes, trying to awaken the maternal instinct sealed in Ruyi's heart.

Honestly, this trick might actually work on girls like Yuanbao and Baihua.

Unfortunately, standing in front of Hao Hao at this moment was none other than Ru Yi, the strictest mother in the Chen family!

"Being cute won't work!"

With a 'smack', Chen Haohao's palm was struck again.

"Master's wife, I was wrong, I was wrong! I shouldn't have neglected other aspects of my training just because I've made a little progress in swordsmanship! Please forgive me, Master's wife."

"That's more like it."

Seeing that Hao Hao truly realized his mistake, Ruyi finally put away her ruler this time.

Seeing this, Chen Haohao naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just when she thought that Master Ruyi was going to let her go, Ruyi suddenly picked her up and pointed to the martial arts arena in the backyard, saying:

"Now that you have realized your mistake, go practice your boxing. Your master's wife will check on your progress in three hours."

"I……"

To be honest, Hao Hao was actually quite unwilling.

But since her master's wife had already said so much, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and walk towards the training ground.

Meanwhile, Ruyi plopped down on the mahjong chair, which was still warm from her body:

"Come on, let me have a go with you guys. By the way, who's going to be the dealer now?"

I took my family to a hot spring, so I need to take a day off.

I'm taking my family to a hot spring in the mountains today, so I need to ask for leave now~~~

I'm taking my family to a hot spring in the mountains today, so I need to ask for leave now~~~

374. Shall I introduce you to my brother?

"Tsk tsk tsk, youth is truly wonderful."

In the courtyard of Baifang Peak, looking at Chen Yuze who was always sticking to the girls, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but sigh in a very weathered tone.

To be honest, before meeting Chen Yuze and his family, Lu Xiaofeng didn't think there was anything wrong with being single.

Just think about it, isn't being single so carefree?

No one will specifically look after you, and as a single person, you won't have too many responsibilities on your shoulders.

You will have more personal space and more time to improve yourself.

You should know that being single has another name: being able to do whatever you want!

However, after meeting Chen Yuze and his family, Lu Xiaofeng's deep-rooted beliefs gradually began to waver.

After all, everyone is afraid of loneliness.

In this lifetime, if you can meet someone who loves you, cherishes you, and protects you, wouldn't that be a blessing?

Most importantly, after having a partner, I no longer have to be bombarded with PDA from Chen Yuze's family every day.

Damn it, do you even realize how much damage your blissful, lovey-dovey relationship is causing to an older single guy?

Lu Xiaofeng even felt that it was a miracle she hadn't developed depression as a result.

"Auntie, why are you sighing and complaining so early in the morning?"

Hearing Lu Xiaofeng's sigh, Yuanbao, who had somehow styled his pigtails into buns, curiously approached her.

"It's nothing, just remarking how wonderful it is to be young."

With a seemingly nonchalant wave of her hand, Lu Xiaofeng immediately sat down on the stone chair and poured herself a cup of tea.

Yuanbao's expression also changed.

It started to get weird.

"aunt."

After pouring himself a cup of tea, Yuanbao held the cup and asked curiously, "May I ask how old you are?"

"More than one hundred and thirty."

Looking at her face reflected in the teacup, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly.

Yuanbao fell silent in response.

It wasn't until quite a while later that the girl finished her tea in one gulp, and then, looking puzzled, she began to complain:

"No, you're only 130 years old, what are you sighing about!"

"Hmm?" Amused, Lu Xiaofeng took a sip of her tea. "Alright, Yuanbao, don't try to comfort me. I know my own age best."

"No, you have absolutely no idea!" Yuanbao slapped away Lu Xiaofeng's hand, which was about to pour more tea, and continued to ask with a look of disbelief:

"You're 130 years old, and you're just sitting here sighing and complaining. What are we supposed to do?"

"Huh?" As if sensing something was amiss, Lu Xiaofeng cautiously asked, "I haven't asked yet, Yuanbao, how old are you this year?"

"It will be 300 in seven years."

"..."

Lu Xiaofeng twitched her eyelids. To be honest, she really hadn't expected Yuanbao to be three hundred years old.

After all, she didn't look much older than Qianya.
