I work as a veterinarian in the mountains, and at the beginning of the game, I find Daji (a legendar

"That's right, this must be the red thread that the Old Man of the Moon secretly tied."

"Should we now set off for Qingqiu?"

"Brother, no! We mustn't rush this! I suspect that my little sister is just shy, which is why she hasn't told us about this. If we go now, it might backfire."

"So what should we do?"

“Simple, just pretend you don’t know.” With a smirk, Luo Baiwan revealed a profound smile: “Once my little sister and our esteemed brother-in-law are happily married, she will naturally come home. It won’t be too late for us to congratulate her then.”

“You’re right. Besides, my brother-in-law is incredibly powerful and influential. It’s definitely better for my sister to stay with him than with us.”

So, after a long discussion, Wang Fugui and Luo Baiwan finally came up with a solution that they both thought was appropriate.

"Someone, pass on my order. From this day forward, everyone in Lion Camel Ridge must start shipping your Third Master and my master brother-in-law! Anyone who dares not to ship them will have their ashes scattered to the winds."

Having said that, Wang Fugui handed the scroll depicting Chen Yuze's portrait to his most trusted and beloved subordinate:

"Old Niu, the publicity work for this couple is all yours. Also, find someone to remake a portrait of our master brother-in-law, and try to make sure everyone in Lion Camel Ridge has one. Just in case some fool offends my master brother-in-law."

"Alright, Old Niu will get on it right away!"

The beast, known as Old Ox, patted Wang Fugui on the chest, clearly showing an attitude of "Don't worry about what I do."

So, that very night, inside the old ox's cave...

"Pass it down, tell the brothers—the First and Second Bosses are going to be uncles! Also, this is a portrait of our son-in-law. Have someone make a copy and pass it on! Within three days, I, Old Niu, will randomly select demons to check. If you can't recognize our son-in-law, then you can forget about staying in Lion Camel Ridge!"

099. The old tradition of foxes repaying kindness

As Bai Hua gradually emerged from his state of enlightenment, the sky gradually darkened.

In the courtyard, Daji, Ruyi, Chilian, and Yuanbao were sitting at the mahjong table, engaged in an extremely fierce battle for the title of Mahjong Master under the setting sun.

As for Bao Si, because her cultivation level was too low, she was currently cultivating in the open space to the side with an extremely resentful and sour face.

Hearing the occasional sounds of "pong" and "eat" coming from her ears, Bao Si felt wronged, extremely wronged!

But Bao Si really couldn't do anything to those women.

Helpless, she could only console herself with this thought—

Fortune changes every thirty years, so don't underestimate a little fox's poverty!

When I reach my transformation stage, I'm going to win all of your brass' undergarments at the mahjong table!

Of course, Bai Hua had no idea what Bao Si was thinking.

她看

What they found was just a young girl diligently practicing her cultivation.

Unfortunately, compared to the diligent young girl, mahjong was clearly more attractive to Shiraho.

So, after saying a few words of encouragement to Bao Si, Bai Hua went to the mahjong table without hesitation.

Enraged, Bao Si immediately added a new name to her "kill list".

On the other side, Chen Yuze, seeing that it was getting late, had already started preparing dinner.

The setting sun's rays streamed through the window into the kitchen, where steam was rising from the iron pot cooking rice.

The grilled fish, pan-fried to a golden brown, lay quietly on the porcelain plate, the oil covering it displaying an enticing pale yellow hue.

The braised pork ribs, fresh out of the oven, looked even more tempting after being garnished with some chopped scallions.

Even the cabbage, chili peppers, and pork belly simmering slowly in the pot without water were emitting their unique aroma.

Meanwhile, Chen Yuze, wearing an apron, was skillfully deveining the shrimp in his hands, preparing to make a classic garlic vermicelli shrimp dish for the girls.

Although, like today during the day, it's nice to occasionally take the girls out to a restaurant.

But Chen Yuze always felt that home-cooked meals were still the best.

It wasn't that he was particularly confident in his cooking skills, but rather that no matter how delicious the food outside was, it lacked the human touch and warmth that home-cooked meals had.

"What a pity. I should have brought that set of Shan Hai kitchen utensils with me next time I go on a long trip."

Looking at the plate of prawns in his hand, Chen Yuze couldn't help but make a casual remark.

After all, those are kitchen utensils from the mountains and seas that can bring out the full potential of the ingredients.

It's a bit of a shame that we couldn't cook the shrimp in the mountains, even though we finally got to enjoy it.

Fortunately, Chen Yuze is not the type of person who gets stuck on trivial matters.

It was regrettable, but he only mentioned it casually.

Compared to the time he spent alone in a small cabin three years ago, Chen Yuze was already very satisfied to have so many people to eat with now.

What's more, he was dining with a group of stunningly beautiful women.

……

"Dinner's ready!"

With Chen Yuze's shout, the girls rushed into the house in one go.

Only Bai Hua, who had only recently mastered the rules of mahjong, remained, still pondering why he couldn't win a single hand.

However, Bai Hua soon had no time to think about these things.

Because the food smelled so delicious.

Even Bai Hua, an empress accustomed to delicacies, couldn't help but develop a strong curiosity about Chen Yuze's culinary skills.

Inside the room, Chen Yuze had already set out the tableware for the girls.

In addition, he took out several jars of his own brewed peach blossom wine, intending to share a few cups with the girls.

"Chen Yuze, what kind of novel wine is this?"

Seeing the wine turn from transparent to peach pink after being poured into the bowl, Ruyi blinked curiously.

"This wine is called 'Peach Blossom Gifts My Love,' and it is made from peach blossoms and white peach pulp. The wine has both floral and fruity aromas, and it also has the effects of detoxifying, beautifying the skin, and improving physical condition."

As he said this, Chen Yuze poured a bowl of "Peach Blossoms Gift Me Affection" for each of them.

As for why it's a bowl instead of a cup...

Who made this wine have the effect of 'detoxifying and beautifying'? Based on Chen Yuze's understanding of his girls, they would ask for refills sooner or later, so he might as well just pour it into their bowls from the beginning.

Anyway, everyone in this room is family, so it doesn't matter if we eat and drink a little rough.

Moreover, if you are good-looking enough, then rudeness is no longer called rudeness, but rather called generosity!

"Is this wine really that magical?"

Although he had just drunk the Linglong Bingxin Tea that had given him an epiphany that afternoon, Bai Hua still seemed somewhat skeptical as he looked at the peach-pink wine in his bowl.

Where is even a trace of the aura of the Queen of Qingqiu in her current state? She's just a country girl who's recently come to the city from the countryside!

"Whether I'm just trying to fool you or not, you'll know once you take a sip."

As he said this, Chen Yuze smiled and placed a large shrimp on Bai Hua's plate.

But Chen Yuze obviously didn't expect that his small action would immediately attract the attention of all the girls.

"Brother-in-law!!!"

Bao Si's gaze kept shifting between Bai Hua and Chen Yuze, making her look exactly like a gossipy aunt: "Brother-in-law, when did your relationship with your cousin Bai Hua become so good? If you're going to serve food, shouldn't you serve us first?"

"This……"

Chen Yuze and Bai Hua were both taken aback.

Only now did they realize that, in everyone's eyes, their relationship should be considered relatively 'innocent'.

Seeing the two people speechless, the other girls also began to have all sorts of suspicions.

Chi Lian even muttered a curse under her breath at that moment:

"It's so spicy and numbing, my husband hasn't even served me any food yet."

For a time, the Ice Terrace Pavilion was filled with...

An awkward atmosphere.

Despite Bai Hua's high cultivation level, she still feels pressured being watched so closely by so many rivals.

After quite some time had passed, Daji, who had already finished a bowl of wine and two large shrimp by herself, asked with a puzzled look:

"Isn't it reasonable for my cousin Bai Hua to decide to reciprocate after being saved by my benefactor?"

Wiping the grease from her lips, Daji inexplicably revealed a proud expression: "Just like I was back then!"

"..."

Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? She's the Empress of Qingqiu, you know!

Immediately, the girls present rolled their eyes at Daji.

Only Bai Hua secretly gave Daji a thumbs up.

Daji, you really are a genius!

“That’s right! Just like Daji said!” Bai Hua picked up her wine bowl and then led Chen Yuze in a toasting gesture:

"To repay your kindness, I have already secretly fallen for you! After all, repaying kindness with my body is an old tradition of our Fox Clan, isn't that reasonable?"

100. Bai Hua's Wish

"To repay your kindness, I have long since secretly fallen in love with you, sir!"

With his head held high and chest out, Bai Hua spoke these words with great force and conviction!

However, apart from Daji, the girls only had one thought in their minds—damn it, yet another love rival!

"Cousin, you didn't accidentally connect the wrong wire, did you?"

Seeing Bai Hua giving Chen Yuze flirtatious glances, Bao Si immediately became anxious: "Why are you giving up your position as the Queen of Qingqiu and making such a fool of yourself? Look at my brother-in-law, apart from being handsome and having a lot of treasures, he's just a good-looking but lazy bum! Besides, he already has quite a few girls around him, why are you condescending to join in?"

"You do not understand."

With a slight smile, Bai Hua shook her finger at Bao Si: "How can the word 'love' be explained by the things you've mentioned? Also, the young master is not only your brother-in-law, but also your cousin's brother-in-law. You must remember that."

"Cousin, Bao Si is still young, she doesn't understand love."

Holding Bai Hua's arm, Daji chatted and laughed as she pulled her to a seat next to her: "There are some things she'll never understand unless she gives birth to a litter of little foxes for her benefactor first."
