Looking at the delicious food on the table in front of him, Shen Xing picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Shen picked up some food for him and said, "Eat slowly. There are so many dishes and no one is trying to snatch them from you."
At home, Shen Xing really had a few good days. He had everything he needed, and Shen took care of him meticulously, as if she wanted to make up for all the shortcomings of the past years.
Shen Xing also enjoyed it very much, but soon, his joy turned into sorrow.
Because Shen began to care about his personal problems.
"Xiaoxing, although you are cultivating immortality now, you still need to get married eventually. I won't rush you, but you are already in your twenties. Men from ordinary families can already have children at your age. I don't know if I can have a grandchild in my lifetime..."
Shen Xing's scalp went numb when he heard this. "Mom, I... I definitely want to get married, but I haven't met the girl I like yet. You are still so young, you will definitely live a long life, how could you not have a grandchild? Even if you can't have mine, there is still--"
As soon as his eyes passed over Shen Yizhi, she glared at him fiercely. He immediately changed his words: "Don't we still have the little carp?"
Shen glared at him, "When little carp grows up and has children, I will be too old to hold a grandson. I know quite a few old sisters, and they all have unmarried girls of marriageable age. How about I help you find a match? I am not a pedantic old stubborn person who chooses a daughter-in-law according to my own wishes. It mainly depends on whether you like her or not..."
Shen Xing felt that he couldn't stay any longer. "Mom, I received a message from my senior brother. He probably wants to talk to me about something. I won't be back for dinner today."
After saying that, he slipped away immediately.
Shen Yizhi was afraid that Shen would turn the blame on him, so he followed her out, "Mom, I'm going to look after Little Star!"
When Shen was about to call her back, she had already disappeared. She couldn't help but laugh and scold, "These two people are both troublesome."
Su Chaiyu held her shoulders and soothed her gently, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Sooner or later, they will meet their respective marriage partners."
"You make it sound easy." Shen glared at him and sighed, "Actually, I'm not worried about Xiaoxing. The main thing is Zhizhi. She's a girl, and she's not young anymore. She'll be eighteen next year, a grown-up girl. If she doesn't talk about her in-laws, what's going to happen in the future?"
But after Shen Yizhi caught up with Shen Xing, the brother and sister looked at each other, and both felt a sense of relief as if they had escaped from the shadow of their mother.
"Xiao Xingxing, did Mr. Gu really contact you?" Shen Yizhi asked. She was looking forward to seeing him again.
Shen Xing shook his head, "I'm just trying to comfort our mother."
Shen Yizhi thought so too, he suppressed his disappointment and smiled: "Come on, I'll take you for a walk, Bianliang City has undergone a lot of changes in these years."
Coincidentally, when the two of them walked around the restaurant they had visited back then, Gu Xueting was reminiscing with his old friends in a private room.
Mei Yang also followed Gu Xueting over. When Pei Fei and Zhou Da saw the two of them come in, they exchanged ambiguous glances.
"Xingzhou, could this be your sister-in-law?" Pei Fei came over with a glass of wine and wanted to put his arm around Gu Xueting's shoulders, but he found that he was half a head taller than him. He couldn't get his arm around him at all, so he could only hold his arm.
Mei Yang was about to reveal a shy smile and accept the title of "brother-in-law" when she heard Gu Xueting say indifferently: "No, she is my master's daughter, Xiao Lizhu."
Pei Fei knew his temper. Since he said that, it meant that he really had no romantic relationship with this Miss Xiao. His expression immediately became much more serious. He stretched out his hand to Mei Yang, making a gesture of invitation, and motioned her to take a seat at the table.
Gu Xueting still chose a seat by the window. When he walked over, he happened to see Shen Yizhi and Shen Xing walking on the street outside.
People who practice Taoism have keen senses. Shen Xing immediately noticed Gu Xueting's gaze. When he looked over, he found it was him. He immediately smiled and waved at him.
Gu Xueting nodded to him and sent him a message: "My friends and I are having a party here, Junior Brother Shen, come along too."
Shen Xing asked: "Can I bring my sister with me?"
Gu Xueting glanced at Shen Yizhi and said, "Okay."
"Great, I'll be there right away." Shen Xing pulled Shen Yizhi and ran towards the restaurant.
Gu Xueting informed the specific location, and Shen Xing and Shen Yizi arrived shortly afterwards.
"Shen Xing, you all know him. Junior Brother Shen and I have supported each other over the years, and Junior Brother Shen has helped me a lot." Gu Xueting introduced Shen Xing in this way, which was much more solemn and warm than when he introduced Mei Yang just now.
Shen Xing touched the back of his head and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Brother Gu, what are you talking about? You should be the one taking care of me. If you hadn't often given me spirit stones, I wouldn't have cultivated so fast..."
As soon as he talked about cultivation, Pei Fei and the other two immediately surrounded him and asked him about various topics related to cultivation with great interest.
Shen Xing was not shy about answering every question, satisfying their doubts and curiosity one by one.
The three of them were chatting very lively, and Gu Xueting sat aside with a cold posture, occasionally saying a word.
Mei Yang came over and joined the small chatting group, trying to isolate Shen Yizhizi.
However, Shen Yizhi didn't care at all. She sat down next to Gu Xueting and started the conversation from the perspective of food: "The steamed sea bass here is very delicious. Mr. Gu might as well try it."
If she wasn't afraid of offending the handsome man, she would have just put a piece of boneless fish into his bowl.
Gu Xueting responded in a low voice, but did not move his chopsticks. Mei Yang turned around and said, "Miss Shen, we have all been fasting. We basically don't eat anything on weekdays. If we have to eat, we drink spiritual food without impurities. Otherwise, it is easy for impurities to accumulate in the body and affect cultivation."
This statement has a bit of a dimensionality-lowering attack meaning, it's just short of saying that we are all cultivators and we simply don't look down on those ordinary foods full of impurities, so don't waste your time on them.
When she said this, she not only offended Shen Yizhizi, but also Pei Fei and Zhou Da.
Both of them were unhappy. Why, you are so noble, and the food we mortals eat defiles you? No wonder Gu Xueting treated her coldly. With such an unrestrained and arrogant character, if she was not the daughter of the leader of Yuxiao Sect, she would have been put in a sack outside.
Pei Fei sneered: "Oh, I'm so sorry, we didn't consider that Miss Xiao is a fairy who only eats spiritual food. We are really not good enough in entertaining her."
First blood!
Mei Yang was impatient. If it weren't for the fact that you are Gu Xueting's friends, who would be willing to deal with you? It's just a fake person created by the Samsara Realm, and you dare to mock her in a sarcastic way?
