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

"Old Sparrow, since you can transform into your current form, why did you present yourself as an old man when you were in Changqing Mountain?"

"Sigh, it's all because of her."

With a long sigh, Elder Sparrow shook his head with a sigh: "After she left, I vowed never to marry again in this life. But after the news of my return to single life spread, many women in the clan tried to throw themselves at me. Helpless, I had no choice but to appear in the guise of an old man."

"..."

Although Master Que was recounting the past with a nostalgic expression, for some reason, Chen Yuze had an urge to punch him.

"Ahem, I think I've said a bit too much."

Perhaps noticing the indifference in Chen Yuze's eyes, after coughing twice, Elder Que immediately got down to business at Wanhua Valley.

"Senior, please come with me. I will take you to my ex-wife's study."

……

We walked along a path lined with flowers, bypassing the bustling market in the Valley of a Hundred Flowers.

After about half an incense stick's time, Master Que and Chen Yuze stopped outside a two-story study.

Whenever a gentle breeze carrying the rich fragrance of flowers blows by, the wind chimes hanging outside the study will make a crisp sound.

After gesturing for Chen Yuze to be quiet, Old Master Que straightened his back and walked step by step toward the wooden door of the study.

"Knock Knock-"

"Gugu, are you there?"

As Old Sparrow gently knocked on the door, the tightly closed wooden door was quickly pushed open.

Before Chen Yuze appeared a beautiful woman with her long brown hair piled high and a slender figure.

If Chen Yuze were to choose a fruit to describe her, it would probably be a juicy, plump peach.

However, the beautiful woman did not look well, and she was holding a broom in her hand.

After recognizing who had entered through the door, she raised the broom without a word and swung it at Old Sparrow:

"Didn't I tell you not to come here unless it's absolutely necessary?"

"Wait, listen to me!"

As if he had already anticipated the beautiful woman's moves, the old sparrow's dodging movements looked exceptionally skillful.

He's a master of backboarding!

"Gugu, I'm not here to beg you to get back together with me!"

Grabbing the broom from the beautiful woman's hand, Old Sparrow quickly shifted his position and pointed at Chen Yuze, saying, "It was this senior who came up with the story, so I brought him here."

"You want to write a storybook?"

She glanced at Old Sparrow, then at Chen Yuze. The beautiful woman called Gugu, though no longer making any moves, didn't hold back her words:

"Although I don't know when you met such a person, let me make this clear: if I don't like this story, even if the King of Heaven himself came, I wouldn't help you."

"Sister, why don't you take a look first? If there's anything you don't like, I can make some minor modifications to accommodate your suggestions."

Seeing that the beautiful woman and the old man had finally calmed down, Chen Yuze quickly handed over the draft he had prepared in advance.

"You're much more sensible than that filthy thing, and you're also more pleasing to the eye."

While praising Chen Yuze, he also took the opportunity to mock Que Lao.

After receiving the draft of the storybook, Gugu leaned against the door frame outside the bookstore and began to read.

"The Empress's gigolo?"

As soon as I saw the book title, GuGu was immediately intrigued.

Chen Yuze smiled knowingly at this and leaned against a tree outside the bookstore.

Chen Yuze is very confident about his book, "The Soft Rice Man of the Empress's Family".

After all, this was a storybook that made the girls in their family willingly put down their mahjong and read it attentively.

Moreover, Chen Yuze's mastery of the genre of landscape and sea writing is no joke.

Sure enough, after reading about ten chapters, GuGu looked at Chen Yuze with a shocked expression.

"Sir... no, master, may I ask what other storybooks you have written before?"

"This is the first storybook I've ever written," Chen Yuze said with a slight smile.

"first!?"

The shock in her pupils deepened, but GuGu quickly forced herself to calm down:

"Master, are you really sure you want me to help you distribute your books?" Taking a deep breath, GuGu asked again and again to confirm:

"There's no doubt that this storybook has enough potential. But if it were published by a larger bookstore, the impact would definitely be greater. I really don't understand why it has to be me?"

"This one……"

The gaze passed over Gu Gu's shoulder and landed on the old sparrow behind her.

Chen Yuze thought about it and finally decided to do Old Master Que a favor:

"Because Elder Que is the person I trust most in Changqing Mountain, he recommended me."

"If you're going to publish your book here, then I'll publish mine here."

"he!?"

With a complex expression, she turned to look at Elder Sparrow, though she only uttered the word "he." But within that utterance lay a multitude of emotions.

At the same time, Elder Que also cast a very grateful glance at Chen Yuze.

At this moment, Chen Yuze was the only true god in the world in Old Master Que's heart!

However, although Old Sparrow still had a lot to say to Gugu, the timing was clearly not quite right.

"Ahem, Gugu, let's talk about our business later. We must not neglect this senior."

"You're right..."

After nodding slightly and gathering her thoughts, Gugu stepped aside from the doorway and gestured for Chen Yuze to enter.

"Master, let's discuss the details of publishing the book inside."

"Row."

Seeing that things were finally making progress, Chen Yuze naturally stopped dawdling.

Moreover, before entering the house, he specifically waved to Old Sparrow, who was standing there in place:

"What are you all standing there for? Didn't you see that Sister Gu Gu invited us inside to talk in detail?"

136. It hurts, it hurts so much!

After finalizing the details of the publication and the profit sharing with Gugu, Chen Yuze left Baihua Valley and devoted the rest of his time to Elder Que.

After all, the other person looked like they had a lot to say, so Chen Yuze naturally felt embarrassed to stay any longer.

When he returned to the courtyard, the time was exactly at the transition between the end of the day and the late afternoon.

Thanks to Ruyi's usual help in the kitchen, she learned a lot of cooking techniques from Chen Yuze. So, even when Chen Yuze was away, the girls in the family never went hungry.

"Young master, how are the negotiations for publishing the storybook going?"

As soon as Chen Yuze landed, Bai Hua, who was waiting in the courtyard, went to greet him.

"You have far too little faith in me."

Amused, Chen Yuze tidied the hair at Bai Hua's temples and then took out the book sales contract that he had signed with Gu Gu in the bookstore.

"I'm just worried that Old Sparrow's ex-wife will be annoyed by him, and that it will affect the young master."

With her delicate body leaning slightly forward, Bai Hua's eyes filled with spring water as she nestled into Chen Yuze's arms, thoroughly enjoying herself.

Looking at her lovestruck expression, there was not a trace of the majesty of the Queen of Qingqiu.

If the ministers of Qingqiu were to see Bai Hua in this state, they would probably be utterly astonished.

Chen Yuze didn't seem too opposed to it.

After spending a lot of time with the girls, he had almost gotten used to these occasional intimate contacts. In fact, he had become increasingly adept at taking advantage of them.

For example, right now, Chen Yuze is about to reach his wicked hand towards Bai Hua's full and perky buttocks.

Unfortunately, before he could even make a move, Moxi started making sarcastic remarks from the sidelines:

"Ha, what Empress of Qingqiu? I think she's more like a courtesan!"

"Huh?" Faced with Moxi's mockery, Bai Hua no longer cared about being affectionate with Chen Yuze, but turned around and started bickering with Moxi:

"If you're envious that I have someone as outstanding as you, just say so. Why are you being so sarcastic?"

"I envy you? Do you envy your willingness to pay for things or your freebies? You don't really think Young Master Chen would like a shameless woman like you, do you?"

"Whether the young master likes me or not is up to you. You don't think you know the young master's preferences just because you've only been here a short time, do you?"

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!!!"

Seeing that the two girls were about to start fighting, Chen Yuze quickly stopped them.

Fortunately, Chen Yuze still has a considerable amount of say in this family.

Although they were still annoyed with each other, since Chen Yuze had spoken, Bai Hua and Mo Xi naturally couldn't continue making trouble.

"Speaking of which, why aren't you all cultivating at this hour? What are you all doing standing here?"

Looking at the girls cultivating around him, Chen Yuze scratched his head in confusion.

"What else can we do?" Rolling her eyes wide, Ruyi immediately shoved a pen into Chen Yuze's mouth.

"You haven't forgotten that today's storybook hasn't been updated yet, have you?"

"I……"

Speechless for a moment, Chen Yuze looked at the pen in his hand with a helpless expression.

“If you had put even a little bit of the same effort you put into reading these stories into your cultivation, I wouldn’t have to worry about you all this time.”

"Storybooks are storybooks, and cultivation is cultivation. How can you confuse the two?" Ruyi said nonchalantly, hands on her hips, clearly not taking Chen Yuze's words to heart.

However, Chen Yuze has plenty of ways to deal with a seasoned veteran like Ruyi.
