Morning Star
Chapter 452: Sons resemble their mothers, gold bricks build walls
The three of them came to the sofa with curiosity and sat down, looking at the three people in front of them.
After a while, Chu Chengyu finally couldn't help it and pointed at Mo Xinglan and Bai Yue'er, then looked at Chu Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, are these two... your friends?"
It should be more than just friends.
Chujiu found a white porcelain bottle, opened the cap, and was about to pour out the elixir inside. After hearing Chu Chengyu's words, he paused, looked at him, and then looked at Bai Yue'er and Mo Xinglan.
She noticed that the two men had gentle expressions on their faces and a slight smile on their lips, as if they were waiting to see what she was going to say.
The corners of her mouth twitched. They were indeed mother and son, their expressions were so similar.
Looking at Chu Chengyu: "He, they are not my friends, they are..."
Before he finished speaking, Mo Xinglan stood up, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, came in front of Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing, stood upright, clasped his fists and nodded with unprecedented sincerity: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, my name is Mo Xinglan, Xinglan of Xinglan Mission, and I am married to Jiuer."
After saying that, he looked at Bai Yue'er who was on the other side of Chujiu and said, "This is my mother, Bai Yue'er."
"?!"
After hearing this, not only Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing were shocked and unbelievable, even Chu Jiu and Bai Yue'er were unable to react.
Who would have thought he would say it so bluntly?
Chu Shi had not explained the relationship between Mo Xinglan and Chu Jiu to Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing before, and Bai Yue'er also appeared suddenly, so Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing didn't know about it.
They guessed that Bai Yue'er and Mo Xinglan were mother and son, and they also thought that Mo Xinglan and Chujiu were at most a couple who liked each other, but they didn't expect that they actually got married.
This child looks to be only about seventeen or eighteen years old. Even if he looks younger, he should not be old enough to get married, right?
As a parent, Bai Yue'er more or less understood Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing, and was not surprised. She just watched silently, wanting to see what her son would do.
Mo Xinglan took note of the facial expressions of the two elders, clenched his fists, and comforted himself in his heart that it was normal for such a situation to occur.
He took a deep breath, took out a red palm-sized box, stepped forward and presented the box with both hands: "This is the betrothal gift I should have given you, but I never had the chance, so I'll make it up to you now."
Bai Yue'er was stunned when she saw this, and a feeling of relief quietly rose in her heart.
The storage box made of Prajna wood is a spiritual treasure. It has a much larger space than a storage ring, and anything placed inside can be preserved permanently.
However, only people with cultivation can access and put things in such storage treasures, and the two relatives and the little kid in front of him are obviously ordinary people without any cultivation. How will Lan'er solve this problem?
"..."
Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing looked at the box handed to them, then looked at each other, and saw hesitation in each other's eyes.
Finally, Chu Chengyu took the box.
The box looked like it was made of wood, with phoenix carvings on it, and it had some weight to it.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the palm-sized box in his hand, wondering what could be in such a small box. The brat wanted to marry his daughter just for such a small box. Was he still asleep?
Chu Shi thought differently after seeing them. After all, he had seen how powerful Mo Xinglan was, and he thought that what Mo Xinglan gave must be extraordinary.
Not only did he stare at the box, but he also wanted to see what the secret of the box was.
Chujiu's thoughts were the same as Chushi's. The box that Mo Xinglan took out was definitely not simple. Moreover, there was a trace of spiritual energy lingering around the box.
Chu Chengyu only took a look at the box, let out a long sigh, and planned to put the box aside. He didn't seem to have any intention of looking at what was inside.
Bai Yue'er was not surprised to see this, and even felt that this was how it should be. She pursed her lips tightly, but her eyebrows were curved.
Lan'er must be doubting his life at this moment.
Chujiu was very nervous, annoyed that Mo Xinglan only gave them the things without telling them to open them and read these words.
Mo Xinglan wasn't in a good condition. He had never been so nervous before. He was so nervous that his heart was about to jump out of his chest. It was already his limit that he could still speak clearly.
At this time, Chujiu opened his mouth and was about to ask Chu Chengyu to open the box and take a look, when he saw Bai Yue'er floating to Mo Xinglan's side, sitting cross-legged in the air at the same height as Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing.
Her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and her beautiful lips were curved. Although she was in the form of a spirit, her face was still eye-catching. However, it did not make people have any other thoughts. Just from her smile, one could feel that she was very friendly, and people did not feel the slightest bit of disgust.
She opened her lips slightly, and her voice was as clear as a spring, which made people feel comfortable and relaxed. "I'm sorry that due to many reasons, I can only meet you two in the form of this residual soul. As my son introduced me, my name is Bai Yue'er, and you can call me Xiao Yue."
"My son and I are here for the first time, and we know very little about the local customs. But as a parent, I understand how you feel. I was so anxious and thoughtless just now, and I'm sorry for causing trouble to you."
After she said this, she paused and looked at Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing sincerely.
Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing looked at each other. Although they had many questions after seeing Bai Yueer's current state, she also explained many reasons. So they didn't rush to ask, and they would definitely find out slowly in the future.
Then Yang Wanqing smiled and said, "Well, it's okay, it's not a big deal. It's just that the child was so surprised by this."
Seeing the two elders' reactions, Chujiu silently gave Bai Yue'er a thumbs up from behind.
Being a mother is different. She is so gentle and harmless, as if she can talk to anyone. Who would have thought that she was once a ruthless demon king?
Chushi, who was unaware of the situation, knew his elder sister better and could see the admiring look in Chujiu's eyes at a glance.
But I have to say this auntie is really amazing. With just a few words, my parents calmed down and put down their guard.
After hearing what Yang Wanqing said, Bai Yue'er looked up at Mo Xinglan, who was standing there stupidly and hadn't come back to his senses yet: "Lan'er."
Mo Xinglan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he came back to his senses and looked at Bai Yue'er, then looked at Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing, nodded, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Xinglan was not thoughtful just now, I hope you can forgive me."
"Oh, it's okay." When Yang Wanqing looked at Mo Xinglan again, her face was no longer solemn as before, but smiling.
After saying that, she remembered that she had not introduced herself yet, so she introduced herself to Bai Yue'er.
Bai Yue'er greeted the two of them with a smile.
Chu Chengyu nodded, then looked at Mo Xinglan and sized him up and down: "Well, he is a handsome man."
Yang Wanqing also looked at Mo Xinglan: "Yes, he is also very good-looking."
Then she looked at Bai Yue'er who was smiling: "She looks a lot like Xiaoyue."
Mo Xinglan was stunned for a moment, and two uncomfortable blushes quietly appeared on his pale face: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, thank you for the compliment."
"They say that sons resemble their mothers, and walls are built with gold bricks, haha..." Chu Chengyu laughed and smiled.
After hearing this, Yang Wanqing's gentle face immediately turned cold, and one hand quietly pinched Chu Chengyu's waist.
"Haha... Hey hey..." Chu Chengyu's smiling face was distorted by pain. After calming down, he felt that he had said it casually and it was a bit inappropriate.
Although this statement is just meant to express that it is good to have a son who looks like his mother, the following sentence can easily lead people to think in the wrong way.
Bai Yueer understood what the two were thinking, so she continued with Chu Chengyu's words with a relaxed smile: "Don't say it, don't say it, this is what happened."
She really had a gold brick at home. Fortunately, it was a big one.
After she said that, Chu Chengyu and Yang Wanqing felt much better.
At this time, Bai Yueer looked at Chujiu, and then looked at the two faces: "Before, I was wondering how Xiaoguaiguai could be so cute. It turns out that his parents are very good-looking."
When Chujiu heard that she was mentioned, she quickly perked up and pretended to hold her face with a shy look on her face: "Oh, my beautiful mother, you made me feel embarrassed."
Bai Yue'er's eyes and eyebrows were curved, and she laughed out loud.
Yang Wanqing, Chu Chengyu and Chu Shisan all looked disgusted.
"what--"
Yang Wanqing rubbed her shoulders and glared at Chujiu with disdain: "Why do you become more and more funny every time you go out?"
However, from the way Bai Yue'er and Chu Jiu addressed each other as Yang Wanqing and Chu Chengyu, it can be seen that these two people like each other very much.
Chujiu smiled at her and said, "I was embarrassed to begin with."
"Hey, shut up now. No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak." Yang Wanqing said quickly.
Chujiu snorted proudly.
Bai Yue'er looked at the mother and daughter interacting and smiled softly with her hands covering her lips.
No wonder Xiaoguaiguai is so lively, it turns out he has a lively family.
She stopped laughing and looked at Chu Shi again: "Come to think of it, Xiao Shi looks more like his mother, and he is so handsome, he will definitely be a genius in the future."
Chushi, who had been standing aside and trying to be invisible, shuddered when he heard the sudden mention of the name. Thinking of what Bai Yueer had said, he subconsciously raised his hand and touched the back of his head, laughing happily: "Thank you for the compliment, auntie."
Yang Wanqing saw the smug look on his face and rolled her eyes at him, "Look at what I can do."
Chushi quickly put away his smile, and said with grievance: "It's not easy to be praised once, I have to be more capable."
Chu Chengyu refused to acknowledge what he said: "So I don't praise you enough, right?"
Chushi pouted: "Are you praising me? You are using me as a foil."
