Chapter 180 More Regrets

Ah Fu was born into a poor peasant family and was sold to the palace by his family when he was young. He was originally supposed to be castrated and become a eunuch.

But because he was ignorant and offended someone, he was sent to the side of the least favored Fourth Prince Xiao Yu. Before he could be castrated, he was expelled from the palace along with the Fourth Prince. Fortunately, he escaped the disaster by accident.

So although Ah Fu had never personally experienced the process of castration, he was very clear about it.

So, Miss Xu castrated Brother Cat herself?

He couldn't help but imagine the whole scene in his mind, including Xu Chuchu pointing the tool at Brother Cat...ah, it hurts just thinking about it!

Why would a girl do this? It's too outrageous, isn't it?

"No, Ah Fu, stop fantasizing." Xu Chuchu knew Ah Fu had misunderstood as soon as she saw his expression, and quickly explained, "It's not the castration you think it is. It's... well, anyway, it wasn't done by me. Uh, I paid a doctor to do it."

If Xu Chuchu had regretted using forbidden techniques to give Daju intelligence, and received a beating from his master in return,

She regretted even more that she took Big Orange to the pet hospital for sterilization surgery when it was young.

First he was sterilized, and then he gained intelligence and transformed into a human... The consequence was that after Daju turned into a human, he hugged her and cried for a long time, blaming her for castrating him and preventing him from being a real man.

Although many cat owners will sterilize their cats when they are young, but... other people's cats cannot become humans, cannot speak, and cannot complain!

He would not use the words "You have castrated me, and you still care about me" to shut her up when she didn't allow him to eat canned food as his staple food, didn't allow him to play games all night, etc.

Whenever the two quarreled, Daju would bring up old grudges, and Xu Chuchu would have to give in.

Okay, okay, she owes him in this life.

Daju pouted: "Does it make any difference? It wasn't you who did it, but it was your idea. You're annoying."

"Okay, I'm sorry." Xu Chuchu shook his hand and coaxed him softly.

After receiving the apology, Daju regained his high spirits and shook his non-existent tail: "Forget it, since you treated me to fish, I forgive you!"

The master and the pet smiled at each other, leaving Ah Fu disheveled in the wind.

The dishes were served quickly. When Daju saw the two delicious fish, he was so happy that he almost meowed and started to eat them.

He didn't like heavy food and only liked the original flavor of fresh fish. He didn't touch Xu Chuchu and Afu's dishes, and each side ate their own food.

Hearing that the grilled fish here tastes good, Xu Chuchu tried a few more bites, but soon put down his chopsticks, and Ah Fu didn't eat much either.

The fish was very fresh and well-seasoned, but it was a silver carp with the most bones and the meat was not very tender, so neither of them was very interested.

To be honest, ever since Xu Chuchu got together with that guy, she hasn't eaten the cheapest silver carp for a long time, even though she doesn't eat the best delicacies every day.

But Daju ate it with great relish.

He also eats silver carp, but he can spit out the bones. He eats the fish meat in big mouthfuls, and then spits out the small bones one by one like a machine gun. The bones are also very clean, without any fish meat on them.

He finished the whole line in just a few strokes.

Ah Fu was secretly amazed when he saw this, but Xu Chuchu felt a little sad because she had never seen Ah Fu spit out a fish bone like this.

Back in the modern era, when had Daju ever eaten silver carp? Those expensive deep-sea fish weren't enough to fill his stomach. If they were even slightly stale, he'd just throw them in the trash.

Now he is so happy to eat two ordinary silver carp, which shows that he has not had a good life in the past few years since he came to the Xia Dynasty.

"Why don't you eat fish?" Daju saw that neither of them had touched their chopsticks, so he enthusiastically recommended the braised fish, "Try it more, it's really delicious! Me and...we always order one every time we pass by here in Beijing!"

"Okay." Xu Chuchu cooperated and picked up a few more pieces with chopsticks.

As it approached noon, more and more customers came to the tavern, and their voices gradually became lowered to avoid attracting attention.

The sounds of gossip and chatter from the caravan at the next table could also be heard.

"Hey, have you heard? The two freaks in the capital are causing trouble again!"

"What's wrong?"

"One is that Young Master Xiao, the one who, hey, has that kind of illness... A few days ago, they hung a red cloth with a "囍" character on the gate of his mansion. It seems like they're planning a wedding!"

"What's the big deal? Didn't I hear he recovered from his illness a while ago? Why can't they get married now that he's recovered?"

"Oh, it's not good. It's getting worse recently. Tell me, which girl would dare to marry him? I'm afraid he must have been bought."

…

Xu Chuchu didn't react at all after hearing these words, and Daju was concentrating on eating the fish. Only Ah Fu was angry and wanted to argue, but was stopped by Xu Chuchu's eyes.

After scolding Xiao Yu, the group started scolding another weirdo, Chen Zhaozhi.

"It's said that a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes. But the son of Chen Zhaozhi, the vixen, looks like a fox. Look, he got into trouble and was exiled, right?"

"I've heard about this. It seems to be saying that he raped a decent woman? If he raped her, he should just marry her. Doesn't our emperor particularly favor him? Is this worthy of exile?"

"Hush, don't mention the emperor," the man hissed. "Rape a woman isn't a serious crime, but do you know whose girl it was? I heard she was from a high-ranking official's family. The official teamed up with his colleagues to sue her, and they framed her with a bunch of nonsense. They even lost the Grand Master, and that's why she was exiled."

"Ah? Do you know which girl it is?"

"How could we, at our level, know about this? We've covered it up so tightly. We might even have to hide it and get married later."

"Ah... Fortunately, I already have a wife."

"You are so beautiful that even a high-ranking official's daughter would never marry you!"

"I don't even want to marry me..."

The next words were even more unpleasant to hear. Xu Chuchu didn't want to listen anymore. Seeing that everyone had finished eating, she asked, "Have you finished eating? Let's go?"

Daju nodded obediently. Ah Fu glanced at the people at the next table angrily and stood up as well.

Xu Chuchu went to pay the bill and found that the food was even cheaper than she had imagined.

The three of them left quietly without attracting anyone's attention.

They returned to the carriage and continued on their journey. Xu Chuchu asked Ah Fu, "Is Chen Zhaozhi really the child of a fox spirit?"
