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

In Bao Si's mind, her brother-in-law was a powerful and influential deity.

"I advise you to lower your expectations a bit, Bao Si."

Seeing what Bao Si was probably excited about, Ruyi gave her a heads-up, saying with a mix of amusement and exasperation: "Chen Yuze lives in Changqing Mountain to live in seclusion, not for a vacation."

“Even if it’s the worst, it’s still where my brother-in-law lives, right?” Bao Si thought Ruyi was just exaggerating and said dismissively, “Do you think my brother-in-law and you can live in a tiny wooden hut with only one bedroom?”

"..."

Hearing Bao Si's words, Chen Yuze, standing on the flying boat, felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

But then again, he really should consider expanding the cabin.

Now, besides Chen Yuze himself, there are five other girls in his family: Daji, Ruyi, Chilian, Yuanbao, and Baosi.

When justice awakens, there will be six.

Furthermore, once Bai Hua cultivates a suitable successor to the empress, she will also have to move in, making a total of seven girls.

Even if everyone reverts to their original forms when they sleep at night, Chen Yuze's small, shabby bed still can't fit so many people.

However, if you want to use that house expansion card, the safe zone will be gone.

This is the reason why Chen Yuze has been hesitant to expand the cabin.

After all, this safe zone had indeed saved Chen Yuze's life once.

"Senior Brother Yuze, we've arrived!"

Just as Chen Yuze was struggling with his decision, the flying boat paused slightly. Then, a sweet voice rang in his ear.

Looking up, there were indeed the two sisters, Yuanyuan and Huanhuan.

Since it was the two of them who brought Chen Yuze's family to Qingqiu in the first place, Bai Hua thoughtfully asked them to send Chen Yuze's family back this time.

Incidentally, the flying boat that Chen Yuze is standing on is actually quite rare. Even in Qingqiu, only a select few of high status can afford to ride it.

Putting aside whether this thing is comfortable to ride in, its flight speed alone is amazing enough.

Chen Yuze's journey to Qingqiu took seven days and seven nights. But this time, it only took him less than two and a half days to return.

"Junior Sister Yuanyuan, Junior Sister Huanhuan, thank you for bringing us back."

Having arrived at their destination, Chen Yuze didn't linger any longer. After thanking the two sisters, he left the flying boat with his family.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to politely exchange a few words: "You two must be tired from your journey. Would you like to have a cup of tea before you go?"

"certainly--"

When Chen Yuze tried to persuade them to stay, the two sisters were overjoyed. Regardless of whether it was just polite talk, they immediately decided to disembark from the flying boat with Chen Yuze.

Unfortunately, before Yuanyuan and Huanhuan could even take a step out, five icy gazes, cold enough to send chills down their spines, were already fixed on them.

Looking at the almost tangible black aura behind Daji and the others, Yuanyuan and Huanhuan finally gave up their plan to stay and have tea, feeling utterly helpless.

“Senior Brother Yuze, as your guards on this trip, we must return immediately to report back after safely escorting you to your destination. We sisters appreciate your kindness, Senior Brother Yuze.”

Chen Yuze didn't say much about it.

After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, he led the group of girls back to the long-missed cabin.

Thanks to the self-regulating function of the Mountain and Sea artifacts, even though Chen Yuze was not at home during this period, the cabin still maintained a certain level of tidiness overall.

"Phew~~ I'm finally back~"

Standing in the yard, feeling the sense of returning home, Chen Yuze moved his beloved rocking chair out of the storeroom without saying a word and lay down in the yard.

Seeing this, the other girls followed Chen Yuze without saying a word, and brought out...

They got their own rocking chairs.

In just a short while, the yard was filled with rocking chairs.

Only Bao Si stood blankly in the courtyard, staring at the scene before her, lost in deep silence.

In other words, this is far from the home she imagined.

Of course, if she could live with her brother-in-law, the house would be small, and Bao Si could tolerate it.

But when she entered the storeroom and found no extra rocking chairs, Bao Si completely lost her temper.

"Waaaaah—"

Sobbing, Bao Si leaned her upper body on Chen Yuze's lap and cried out, "Brother-in-law, I want a rocking chair too!"

"..."

To be honest, Chen Yuze really didn't want to get up from the rocking chair.

But seeing Bao Si's pitiful little face, his stoic nature ultimately gave way to his soft heart.

However, Chen Yuze was not in a hurry to make a new rocking chair.

After giving his rocking chair to Bao Si, Chen Yuze went to the side of Ruyi and Chi Lian, who had the strongest cultivation:

"Ruyi, Chilian. Are there any noteworthy forces around Changqing Mountain?"

"The area around Changqing Mountain is full of insignificant small forces. Either of us could easily wipe them out."

Ruyi shook her head, puzzled, and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing, I was just asking casually."

Having received the answer he wanted from Ruyi, Chen Yuze immediately began to re-examine his little wooden house.

To be honest, if it were just Chen Yuze, a rough old man, living alone, the house being a bit dilapidated wouldn't matter; he could manage to live there anyway.

The problem is that Chen Yuze is now living with the girls, and it would be unreasonable for him to live so casually and make do.

Even though the girls never mentioned it, Chen Yuze, as a grown man, couldn't just sit idly by just because the girls didn't bring it up, could he?

As the saying goes, people strive to rise higher, while water flows downhill.

Don't let Chen Yuze's seemingly indifferent demeanor fool you; once the girls choose to be with him, he will never allow them to suffer even the slightest injustice.

Since there are no other forces around Changqing Mountain that can threaten me, I might as well expand this house today.

"System, can I use that house expansion card now?"

104. New home (3.5K)

[Reporting to the host, according to our system's detection, the house expansion card is currently functioning normally.]

"Alright, let's start the expansion right away."

Hearing the system's reply, Chen Yuze didn't think too much about it and immediately issued the order to expand the facility.

Don't let his seemingly lazy and unambitious demeanor fool you; he's not the type to be coy or timid at all.

Now that I've decided to expand the cabin, I won't hesitate and drag things out with you anymore.

[One House Expansion Card consumed. Expansion work will soon be carried out within the safe zone. Would you like to entrust the entire house planning to this system?]

“Okay.” Since he knew nothing about house design and planning, Chen Yuze entrusted the system with complete peace of mind.

Moreover, Chen Yuze is someone who doesn't care much about the process, or rather, doesn't care much about the sense of participation.

Compared to the troublesome projects that require doing everything personally, Chen Yuze definitely prefers the one-stop, all-inclusive service provided by the system.

[Expansion work is about to begin. To avoid any unnecessary accidents, please evacuate to areas outside the safe zone.]

……

After Chen Yuze called out all the girls in the yard, the system automatically started the expansion of the cabin.

However, unlike the demolition and reconstruction method that Chen Yuze had imagined, the system's expansion method seemed more fantastical.

For example, right now, after a flash of light, Chen Yuze's log cabin was broken down into basic 'materials' such as wood, stone, mortar, and terracotta tiles, which were then neatly arranged and stacked on the open ground.

Even after the original cabin was completely dismantled, the quantity and variety of 'materials' continued to increase.

For Chen Yuze, this was just a slightly novel experience, and there wasn't much of a problem.

But in the eyes of the girls, this was an incredible supernatural power.

In particular, his ability to create things out of thin air left the girls present speechless with astonishment.

"Sir, who exactly are you?"

Looking incredulously at the building materials that kept appearing in the courtyard, Chi Lian felt her head buzzing.

Despite the incredible abilities of cultivators, they are still incapable of creating things out of thin air.

Apart from Chi Lian, the other girls didn't look much better either.

Ruyi couldn't help but pinch Chilian's thigh hard, blinking as she asked, "Chilian, am I dreaming?"

As a result, Chi Lian was in so much pain that tears streamed down her face: "Damn it, you old hag! Even if I'm dreaming, why are you pinching me like that!"

"Alright, everyone, calm down. Don't make a fuss over nothing."

I watched the girls' reactions with a mix of amusement and exasperation.

Chen Yuze then made an excuse to smooth things over: "This is a kind of supernatural power passed down in my family, called alchemy. Moreover, it's not about creating things out of thin air; it's about an equivalent exchange. Don't be fooled by how all those building materials suddenly appeared; they were actually obtained by exchanging some unused treasures from my storage space."

"Equivalent exchange?"

Seeing how logically Chen Yuze spoke, the girls, who were initially quite surprised, believed him to a large extent.

After all, creating something out of thin air is indeed a bit of an exaggeration. Although they had never heard of this so-called alchemy either, it at least sounded more plausible than creating something out of thin air.

After hearing Chen Yuze's explanation, Bao Si asked excitedly, "Brother-in-law, could you use alchemy to transfer the excess fat from my stomach to my breasts or buttocks? That would be a fair exchange, wouldn't it?"

"What are you thinking about?" Chen Yuze was amused by Bao Si's words.

However, maintaining a serious and rigorous attitude, he went on to explain: "The use of alchemy is also subject to certain limitations. For example, it cannot be used with living things as a medium, which is one of the conditions for its use."

"That's it?" Bao Si was extremely disappointed.

Although her figure is already quite good, girls tend to be a bit picky.

For example, although Bao Si's waist was not as slender as Ru Yi's, it was far from being considered obese.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that slightly chubby girls are actually more attractive to the opposite sex in some ways.

The problem is, Bao Si doesn't think so!

Especially after comparing herself to Ruyi, she felt even more unbalanced.
