Chapter 37
Baichuan's father and mother went out to walk the dog after breakfast early in the morning. Maybe it's because they pay attention to physical exercise and have a regular life that they look so young?
Baichuanmu, who slept with the two cubs until they woke up naturally, said: ...It’s all Xiao Gojo Satoru’s fault!
Kogojo Satoru:...?
But the two old ones did not forget the two young ones. The food was ready and they just needed to be heated up before eating.
So now Baichuanmu and the two cubs are eating together.
Xiao Xia Youjie picked up a soup dumpling with crab roe and dipped it in grapefruit vinegar with a few drops of chili oil. In fact, it was delicious without any seasoning, but it made the taste richer and more delicious. It was a little spicy for Xiao Xia Youjie, but the fragrant soy milk perfectly alleviated the spiciness.
The freshly ground soy milk in the morning is different from the ready-made ones sold in supermarkets. It tastes more mellow and has a cozy warmth. The temperature in the mountain villages has not risen yet in the morning, so drinking a cup of warm soy milk is just right to warm your stomach.
It should have been a comfortable and wonderful breakfast, but under the resentful look of Gojo Satoru, Xiao Xia Youjie felt that the food was not enjoyable.
EMMMM...Xiao Xia Youjie, under tremendous pressure, finished half a basket of dumplings, but still couldn't help but speak.
"Wu, what's wrong with you?" After asking, Xiao Xia Youjie felt that he was asking a question even though he knew the answer.
"What do you say?" Xiao Gojo Satoru asked back with gritted teeth.
As to why, the answer is obvious.
They were eating soup dumplings with crab roe and drinking sweet soy milk, while Xiao Gojo Satoru was drinking white porridge. Not only did he have dark circles under his eyes, but his nose and face were also bruised, making him look pitiful and aggrieved.
But Maomao Wu still had a fierce look on his face, scooping the porridge vigorously one spoonful at a time. It seemed that he was not eating, but fighting with the porridge.
The super fierce cat Wu was fighting with Bai Zhou while glaring at the innocent fox Jie.
Xiaoxia Youjie: =v=?
Although he didn't know what happened, Xiao Xia Youjie chose to squint his eyes, so that he could block most of Xiao Gojo Satoru's sight. He could eat the dumplings with peace of mind.
Xiao Xia Youjie carefully bit a small hole in the steamed bun, slowly drank the delicious and slightly hot soup, and then put the whole steamed bun into his mouth, with his cheeks bulging like a hamster storing food in his mouth.
Xiao Xia Youjie slowly savored the food, still a little worried about his best friend. He thought to himself, Wu, he wouldn't run out in the middle of the night to fight with the cursed spirits again, right?
Wait, you just care about it in your heart?!
But Xiao Xia Youjie slept soundly last night and really didn't notice what happened.
He consumed so much mana during the day and had so many sparring matches. Even though he was a child with a lot of energy, he had his limits. After eating and drinking, he slept soundly at night. He had no idea that Gojo Satoru had a stomachache and had to get up several times in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. He was also beaten up by the bodyguard he had assigned to his mother.
In fact, Xiao Xia Youjie still had a little impression. In his sleep, he seemed to vaguely hear... Wu calling his name... as if asking for help?
No, it's impossible... How could someone with Wu's personality cry for help!
Originally, there was a chance for Konishi Aburame who could "save" Gojo Satoru, but because he trusted his best friend too much, and the warning spirit he placed near his home to observe the surrounding situation did not issue a warning, Konishi Aburame felt that there was no danger.
"So noisy..." Xiao Xia Youjie muttered and scratched his stomach. Then he rolled up the quilt, covered his head and ears, so that the sound would not be clear, and he fell asleep again.
Xiao Xia Youjie's head was covered with a quilt, but his belly was not protected and was exposed. Although it was summer now, it had just begun, but the temperature was relatively low at night. If it wasn't for the bullying... Ah, no, it was Baichuan Mu who came back to train Xiao Gojo Satoru and covered him with a quilt. I'm afraid that more cubs would have diarrhea.
However, although Geto Natsuyu and Gojo Satoru have known each other for a short time, they are still reliable friends to each other. After eating and drinking, Geto Natsuyu put down his chopsticks... wait, he remembered to care about his best friend after eating and drinking, this... Geto, are you sure you are really a reliable best friend?
Forget it, some care is better than no care.
Xiao Xia Youjie said to Xiao Gojo Satoru, "Satoru, aren't you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach? You should eat something light to nourish your stomach. Your health is more important. After you recover, can't you eat something delicious?"
"Do you think I'm glaring at you just because of this?!" Xiao Gojo Satoru yelled, then took a breath of cold air. His wound was affected, not because of the pain, but mainly because of anger. He said unhappily, "Why am I the only one who has to drink tasteless porridge! What's even more hateful is that you guys are eating such delicious food in front of me!"
"Xiao Jie, listen," Bai Chuanmu also finished his meal, put down his chopsticks, touched Xiao Xia Youjie's head with one hand, pointed at Xiao Gojo Satoru with the other hand and said, "Do you hear a hint of sob in Xiao Wu's voice!"
Xiao Xia Youjie didn't actually hear it, but he believed that his mother wouldn't lie to him, so he suddenly realized, "Wu, you're crying because you can't eat the dumplings?"
Kogojo Satoru:...?
Maomao Wu was furious. Can this runaway be able to leave home peacefully? !
"Huh? Jie, what are you talking about?" Xiao Gojo Satoru stood on the chair, "Am I that kind of person?"
The voice trailed off in the second half of the sentence.
Because Xiao Xia Youjie asked Baichuanmu: "Mom, it should be okay to give Wu a steamed dumpling, right? The kind that is not spicy."
"Sure~" Baichuanmu said with a smile, "One shouldn't matter."
Little Gojo Satoru, who is fearless, "backed down" because of a crab roe soup dumpling. There was no way, because Xiao Xia Youjie looked so delicious while eating and he had been craving for it for too long, not to mention that Baichuanmu also put three spoonfuls of sugar in his porridge.
"...What were you doing this morning?" Xiao Gojo Satoru ate the steamed bun in a few bites, his tongue burned by the soup, "Hot, hiss...Give me two more spoonfuls of sugar."
Bai Chuanmu scooped him two more large spoonfuls of sugar, and half of the sugar in the sugar jar was consumed directly.
Now little Gojo Satoru finally stopped eating in a vicious manner and even smiled while eating. The sweet cat Gojo Satoru is so easy to coax.
Baichuanmu looked at Xiao Gojo Satoru eating so happily and couldn't help but suggest: "Do you want to add some honey?"
"Honey?" Xiao Xia Youjie was stunned. After thinking about it, he felt that the combination of white porridge, white sugar and honey was... weird.
"Honey!?" But Gojo Satoru's eyes lit up, and he quickly pushed the bowl forward, "Okay! Add it!"
Bai Chuanmu gave him a spoonful of honey and put it in: "By the way, there is strawberry jam at home, do you want some?"
"Okay, have a spoonful too!" Xiao Gojo Satoru nodded.
"Where's the chocolate sauce?"
"Arrange it for me!"
"Sweet cream?"
"Of course!"
“I also discovered ketchup.”
"Give me some of this, too."
“My dad grows grapes.”
"Come on too... Hey! I don't want to eat that, are you doing this on purpose?!"
When Gojo Satoru heard the word "grape", he got a little mad. He snorted at Baichuanmu and muttered, "I won't bother with the weak." He returned to the dining table with his own luxurious white porridge with extra ingredients, and then he met Xiaoxia Youjie's gaze.
Xiao Xia Youjie was out of character. Instead of squinting his eyes, he opened his eyes wide, filled with shock and confusion. The question marks on his head seemed to have materialized...
Oh, it has indeed been concretized. Among the curse spirits that Xiao Xia Youjie has subdued, there is one that looks like a question mark, and its name is also called Little Question Mark. It can also float. Now he released the Little Question Mark Curse Spirit and let it float above his head.
If he didn't do this, Xiao Xia Youjie felt that he couldn't express his confusion.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Gojo Satoru also wanted to ask a question. He tilted his head in confusion, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then looked at his deluxe white porridge and reluctantly scooped up a spoonful, "Jie, do you want to eat it too? I can give you a taste."
Xiao Xia Youjie looked at the spoonful of dark food in front of him, shrank his head, and thought to himself, is Wu using me to test the poison?
He quickly waved his hands and refused: "No, no, no! Really not! You eat! I'm full!"
"Aren't you a sweet lover like me?" Gojo Satoru was puzzled. He put a spoonful into his mouth, nodded, and exclaimed, "It's really delicious! It tastes better than plain porridge with sugar added."
Bai Chuanmu said confidently: "Of course! I am a zero-star chef!"
Xiao Gojo Satoru also tried to persuade him: "Jay, are you sure you don't want to have some?"
Xiao Xia Youjie shook his head vigorously: "No, I thought about it carefully, I might not be a sweet person, really."
"Eh?" X2
It's rare for Baichuanmu and Xiao Gojo Satoru to be so in sync with each other.
Xiao Xia Youjie was silent for a while, then explained: "I... don't have any particular favorites, right? I'm fine with anything. I'm not picky about food."
Bai Chuanmu played a grape scare card: "These are the grapes your grandfather planted."
Xiao Xia Youjie decisively changed his words and said, "Now I am picky about food."
"Hahaha——" Baichuanmu laughed. When she was a child, she was also tortured by the grapes planted by Baichuan's father. Now the situation has changed and it is finally her child's turn. "Xiaojie and Xiaowu, you two are so afraid of grapes... Will there be a day when a grape curse spirit is born from your fear?"
Xiao Xia Youjie scratched his cheek: "This... isn't that necessary?"
"I'm afraid because I don't have any!" Xiao Gojo Satoru emphasized, "And curse masters won't breed curse spirits. Only ordinary people like you who can't control curse power will breed curse spirits!"
Xiao Xia Youjie frowned slightly: "Wu, don't say that..."
Xiao Gojo Satoru snorted and said, "What I said is the truth! And this is common sense for a sorcerer. Didn't your mother tell you that?"
"Hmm..." Xiao Xia Youjie pursed his lips. His mother had told him this a little bit, but... he still felt a little unhappy when he heard it.
Baichuanmu rubbed Xiaoxia Youjie's head: "Don't worry, mom will always be happy with Xiaojie by her side, and will not breed curse spirits. Curse spirits can only be born from negative emotions. Well...but I can't be 100% sure that I won't have negative emotions, but if Xiaojie gives mom a hug at that time, any unhappiness and any negative emotions will disappear, right?"
"So my hug is so powerful?"
"Of course!"
"Then when mom is unhappy, I will definitely hug her."
"Oh my, our little Jie is so well-behaved and cute~"
“Hehe~”
Little Gojo Satoru slowly uttered two words: "Mama's boy."
Xiao Xia Youjie responded without hesitation: "Mother Goddess."
When Gojo Satoru heard this familiar name, his lips twitched. No matter how many times he heard this nickname, he would feel uncomfortable... But Xiao Xia Youjie accepted his nickname calmly.
But Gojo Satoru was a little envious. In front of his mother, he was just the Son of God. Getting along with his mother was more like getting along with a retainer. He used to think it was nothing and had long been accustomed to it. But when he saw the mother and son of ordinary families, he gradually realized that "Son of God" was also a kind of bondage.
"Well, Satoru, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Xia Youjie asked. He noticed that Xiao Gojo Satoru was in a daze for a long time, "You don't want to eat... It's better not to eat..."
Xiao Gojo Satoru came back to his senses: "Why not eat it?! This looks and smells delicious!"
"Forehead……"
"Jie, you're not coveting my breakfast, are you? How about I give you half?"
"No need! I really, really, really am not a sweet person!" Xiao Xia Youjie wanted to raise his hand and swear.
"That's a shame, you'll miss out on a lot of delicious food," Gojo Satoru shook his head regretfully, then quickly ate his deluxe porridge. Just as he was about to comment on it, his eyes fell on the small question mark curse spirit on top of Xiaoxia Yujie's head, "Why do you have so many weird curse spirits? Are the curse spirits you subdue... all of them like this?"
Xiao Xia Youjie collected the small question mark curse spirit and said helplessly: "Most of my curse spirits suitable for fighting were consumed in yesterday's battle. Now the only ones that can fight are the deer spirit and Xiao Hei... and a few insect curse spirits, but they are not too strong."
The deer spirit was the second-level curse spirit that he subdued yesterday. Xiao Xia Youjie looked at Xiao Hei who was standing next to Bai Chuanmu and said, "Mom, are you sure you don't want to replace Xiao Hei with the deer spirit? Xiao Hei is only a third-level curse spirit. If Mom encounters a strong enemy, Xiao Hei may not be able to protect Mom well."
Baichuanmu rejected Xiaoxia Youjie's request to replace her bodyguard yesterday.
He had consumed most of his combat-capable cursed spirits in the battle with the second-level cursed spirits, and now was the time when he was in need of help. Baichuanmu even wanted Xiaoxia Youjie to transfer Xiaohei back, and she could just keep the cats and dogs.
But obviously Xiao Xia Youjie would not agree.
Bai Chuanmu warned, "Xiao Jie, didn't mom tell me that with the help of the deer spirit, you can catch more and stronger curse spirits. It won't be too late to help mom change bodyguards at that time. Xiao Jie, you must remember that the premise of wanting to protect others is to protect yourself. If Xiao Jie gets hurt, mom will be very sad, so Xiao Jie must protect yourself, understand?"
"Well, I understand." Xiao Xia Youjie temporarily gave up the idea of replacing Baichuanmu's bodyguard. "When I have subdued enough powerful cursed spirits, I will let mom choose the one she likes."
Baichuanmu: ...As long as you don't let in a cursed spirit like the giant cockroach, everything will be fine.
Xiao Gojo Satoru glared at Xiao Hei beside him. He really wanted to get rid of this cursed spirit. If he hadn't had a stomachache yesterday and his brain was too exhausted to use unlimited power, how could he be bullied by a mere third-level cursed spirit? He didn't even show any fear when facing a second-level cursed spirit!
"Hey, Jie, what happened to your cursed spirit last night?!" Gojo Satoru wanted to ask Jie about this just now, but was distracted by breakfast and forgot about it for a while. Now that Xiaoxia Yujie mentioned the matter of changing bodyguards, he remembered it. Gojo Satoru pointed at Xiaohei and said, "Is it your mother's bodyguard?"
"Yeah," Xiao Xia Youjie looked at Xiao Gojo Satoru who was showing signs of getting angry and was confused, "Isn't it obvious?"
"So—" Xiao Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth and said, "Your cursed spirit suddenly attacked me. Was it your mother's doing?!"
Xiao Xia Youjie was shocked: "Huh?"
Baichuanmu was also shocked: "You just realized it!?"
Xiao Wu Tiao was so angry: "...How dare you be so shocked?! (pointing at Bai Chuanmu)"
The cat and Wu are furious!
