"Chu Mo, let me introduce you. This is Aunt Li, and this is Uncle Fu."
Shu Xiaoya pointed to the two of them and introduced them to him.
"Hello, you two!" Chu Mo greeted them with a smile.
"Hello, Young Master Chu!"
The middle-aged woman looked reserved and bowed slightly to him as she spoke.
"Aunt Li, just call me Chu Mo. I'm from the countryside too, and the word 'young master' sounds really awkward to me."
"You're Miss Shu's friend, how can you address me like that? How about I call you Mr. Chu?"
Aunt Li's smile was noticeably more relaxed, but she resolutely refused to call him by his name.
Chu Mo didn't insist any further; Mr. Chu was more comfortable listening to him than Young Master Chu.
"Young Master Chu truly possesses extraordinary bearing; no wonder he is Miss's friend."
Uncle Fu was all smiles and enthusiasm, but he also left Chu Mo feeling quite helpless.
They just managed to win over one Young Master Chu, and now another Young Master Chu is showing up here?
It's fine when people your own age call you that, but it's more pleasant to hear people older than you addressing you like that.
He still finds it very difficult to adapt.
"Chu Mo, just bear with it. Uncle Fu has been calling me 'Miss' for over twenty years, and I've never succeeded in getting him to change his address."
Seeing his embarrassed expression, Shu Xiaoya couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle, her eyebrows curving like crescent moons.
"Haha, there's a difference between master and servant."
Uncle Fu put away his pipe, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes as he looked at Chu Mo.
There was a mysterious aura about this young man that he couldn't quite grasp.
He had only ever experienced this feeling with his master.
But is that even possible?
After pondering for only a moment, he smiled wryly and immediately rejected the idea.
If one had truly reached that level, it would be impossible to be so young.
Otherwise, he would truly be an unparalleled prodigy!
Uncle Fu didn't think much of it and looked at Chu Mo with a kind expression.
"Young Master Chu, make yourself at home here. Don't be shy. You are the only guest Miss has brought home in the past three years."
"Uncle Fu, Chu Mo lives in Villa No. 8, it's not what you think."
Shu Xiaoya couldn't help but explain in a low voice.
"Miss, I didn't mean anything by it. Have you misunderstood something?"
Uncle Fu looked at her teasingly, his eyes filled with affection and kindness.
"Oh, no, there's no misunderstanding. Chu Mo, come in and eat."
The girl glanced shyly at Chu Mo, then hurriedly walked towards the living room with a flushed face.
"Oh my, in the blink of an eye, Miss has grown into a young lady. Time really flies!"
Uncle Fu laughed heartily, sighed, and followed along eagerly.
During the meal, Chu Mo really wanted to ask Uncle Fu about the aura emanating from him.
That energy wasn't particularly strong; it was roughly equivalent to the lower stage of Qi Refining.
It's even slightly inferior.
But he was the most skilled person he had ever seen. Even a beginner in internal martial arts would not last a single move against Uncle Fu.
But he didn't want to ask, so he gave up.
Uncle Fu, on the other hand, looked on with a greedy expression when he saw the medicinal wine that Fu had brought.
Upon seeing this, Shu Xiaoya couldn't help but smile and said coquettishly:
"Uncle Fu, if you feel the urge to drink, just drink, as long as you don't get drunk."
"Haha, Miss understands me best."
Uncle Fu laughed loudly, hurriedly took a bottle, and thanked Chu Mo at the same time.
As soon as the bottle cap was unscrewed, a rich medicinal aroma instantly filled the entire hall.
The wine is fragrant and has a sweet and refreshing taste.
Even Shu Xiaoya, who doesn't drink, couldn't help but take a few more curious glances.
As for Uncle Fu, he had already started pouring wine without even waiting.
He first offered Chu Mo a glass, and then raised his glass to him in greeting.
After taking a sip of wine, Uncle Fu's expression changed drastically.
First came surprise, then shock, and finally, an uncontrollable shout of ecstasy.
"This is truly... an exceptionally fine wine!"
This wine not only has a mellow taste and a long aftertaste, but more importantly, he sensed a trace of spiritual energy in it.
Although it was very faint, it was enough to shock and bewilder him. If he drank this wine regularly, it would definitely deepen his cultivation.
Imagine, where one would normally have to work hard to improve their cultivation even slightly.
But it became simply a matter of drinking alcohol, and it was countless times faster than cultivation.
This is absolutely amazing stuff!
At this moment, his eyes were already burning with passion, and he drank alone, disregarding his image.
Seeing Uncle Fu like this, Shu Xiaoya couldn't help but look at Chu Mo with curiosity.
"Is this wine really that good?"
Chu Mo blinked and smiled:
"You can try it too. It's very beneficial to your health. It can not only improve your physical condition and beautify your skin, but also slow down aging."
Upon hearing that it could slow down aging, Shu Xiaoya's eyes lit up slightly.
Although she was beautiful enough, time is a cruel butcher's knife for all women.
If it really has this effect...
So she picked up her glass, poured herself a drink, and tasted it; then her eyes lit up.
soon.
The three of them drank the medicinal liquor, which consisted of a pound of strong liquor.
Most of it ended up in Uncle Fu's stomach. Shu Xiaoya, who had never drunk baijiu before, actually drank two cups, about two liang (100ml).
Even Aunt Li couldn't resist taking a sip out of curiosity.
"Chu Mo, this wine feels so good."
At this moment, Shu Xiaoya was drunk and her cheeks were as red as apples, making her look charming and cute.
She was already a little drunk.
Uncle Fu stared at the other bottle of wine for a long time, but in the end, he refrained from opening it.
Then, as if remembering something, his eyes lit up as he turned to look at Chu Mo and grinned sheepishly:
"Young Master Chu, where did you buy this medicinal wine? It's truly an exceptional wine!"
"Oh, I brewed this myself. It will be available in stores soon."
