She was sitting cross-legged under an osmanthus tree, with Wei Ying and his new wife Xu Fangnian sitting opposite her. Diagonally opposite her was Cheng Chumo, who was drinking with Hu Silang. To her left was Huang Sanlang, who had finally recovered, and to her right was Hu Shiyi Niang, who was smiling and pouring wine for her.
"Madam Xu, please try this 'Iced Green Wine.' It was brewed by me using the stamens of snow lotus from the Tianshan Mountains, combined with snowmelt water and fifteen kinds of flower petals. It is not intoxicating at all, and a woman will feel fragrant all over after drinking it. It is a fine wine!"
Hu Shiyi Niang was all smiles and graceful manners. She had lost much of the seductive charm that came with foxes, and instead possessed a more human composure—it seemed that her cultivation had made further progress.
Xu Milu lowered her head and took a sip of the wine in her glass. She felt a chill run down her spine and into her internal organs.
She couldn't help but praise:
"Eleventh Sister, your craftsmanship is superb! I see your mind is clear and bright; you must have made some progress in your cultivation!"
Hu Shiyi Niang laughed, a hint of smugness in her expression:
“I recently cultivated a second tail. Since ancient times, demons have had one tail, and one tail is one life. Now I have two lives. Doesn’t that mean I have made some progress in my cultivation?”
Huang Sanlang, standing to the side, couldn't help but bite the handkerchief in his hand. His otherwise handsome appearance inexplicably looked somewhat effeminate, and he immediately whined:
"If I had known that ascending to immortality was so easy, I would have been willing to find a mortal husband and share half of my demon core with him!"
Hu Silang, standing to the side, kicked him without any hesitation:
"Everyone says your Huang family is annoying, and now it seems it really is. You're here to properly celebrate the wedding of Young Master Wei and Madam Xu, so why are you bringing up the Lu family?"
Xu Fangnian was puzzled when she heard this, so Wei Ying whispered the whole story to her. A look of inquiry immediately rose in her eyes, and she secretly looked at Hu Shiyi Niang.
So this is what a fox spirit is?
She is indeed as beautiful as a flower!
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Wei Ying smiled and joked:
"Speaking of which, something funny happened to the Lu family a few days ago! It is said that the youngest daughter of the Lu family suddenly developed hysteria. All she wanted to do was eat raw blood chicken and duck, or mutter frightening words. A couple of days ago, someone went to the main house of the Lu family for a banquet and suddenly saw the youngest daughter of the Lu family squatting on the roof beam with a mouse the size of a cat in her mouth!"
Everyone became interested upon hearing this, and even Xu Milu sat up straight, gesturing for him to continue.
After all, it's just old friends getting together to gossip, which doesn't count as talking badly about others.
