Chapter 60: Late Night Visit
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Deacon Tang brought the two beauties and a group of residents who owed rent to the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s logistics department.
Just as they were about to leave Green Willow Alley, Mo Lifang, who was in his arms, said,
“Husband, I suddenly remembered that I still have a bag of spirit stones at home that I forgot to take. Can you wait for me here for a while and let me go back to take the spirit stones?”
“Come back soon.”
Deacon Tang waved his hand and asked her to hurry up. After saying that, he kept kissing the low-level female Cultivator in his arms.
He was very interested in this female Cultivator now. If he didn’t kiss her, he would feel uncomfortable all over.
Mo Lifang glanced at Deacon Tang’s anxious expression and felt even more disgusted. However, in order to survive, she could only endure the humiliation.
She did not look at this disgusting scene anymore. She turned around and walked home, rushing back to see her son.
“Fang’er, wait a minute.” Deacon Tang suddenly shouted at her.
When Mo Lifang heard this, she stopped and revealed a sweet smile. “Husband, what’s the matter?”
“It’s nothing. I just want to ask, are Alchemist Chen’s three wives and concubines really as beautiful as you said?”
“Very beautiful. At least in terms of looks, I’m not even 10% of them. No, I’m not even 5%.”
In order to arouse Deacon Tang’s interest in Chen An’s wife and concubine, Mo Lifang did not hesitate to degrade her appearance.
Deacon Tang still did not believe her. “Fang’er, you’re already beautiful enough.
How can there be someone so beautiful that makes you feel inferior?”
Mo Lifang smiled and said, “Husband, have you heard of the famous belle of Green Willow Alley?”
“That female Cultivator is called Wen Zhiyun, right? I’ve long heard of her and seen her once. She’s beautiful, but unfortunately, she’s an old leftover woman and remains unmarried. I’m not interested at all.”
“Husband, you might not believe it, but this flower from back then has already become Alchemist Chen’s concubine.”
“What?!”
Deacon Tang’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The reason why Wen Zhiyun was called the belle of Green Willow Alley was because no one could woo her.
Whether it was a Foundation Establishment expert or a second-grade Alchemist, they had all been rejected by her.
But now, this belle had become the concubine of a first-grade Alchemist? What kind of joke was this!
“Fang’er, is this true?”
Deacon Tang was so excited that his face turned red. He only liked good wives.
Now that Wen Zhiyun had become someone’s wife, it had completely piqued his interest.
Mo Lifang smiled faintly and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask them.”
When Deacon Tang heard this, he immediately looked at the residents of Green Willow Alley and asked, “Tell me, is what Fang’er said true?”
“Deacon Tang, this is true.”
“It’s indeed true. The reason why Wen Zhiyun became Alchemist Chen’s concubine is said to be because she saw that Alchemist Chen was handsome.”
“I wonder how many blessings Master Chen had cultivated in his past life. It’s fine if he can take Fellow Cultivator Wen as his concubine, but the other wife and concubine in the family are not inferior to Fellow Cultivator Wen. I’m so envious.”
Among the 20 residents who owed rent, many of them had been jealous of Chen An for a long time.
Now that they had the chance to see Chen An suffer, they were trying their best to fan the flames. They could not wait for Deacon Tang to mess with Chen An’s family.
Humans were such a devilish existence. They could not bear to see others doing well and liked to build their happiness on the pain of others, especially the pain of happy people.
Seeing that everyone said so, Deacon Tang could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart and could not help but sigh.
“This Alchemist Chen is really lucky!”
“He’s just a small first-grade Alchemist, but he can actually have three beautiful wives who can cause the downfall of a city!”
“But it doesn’t matter. The three of them will be mine soon!
Deacon Tang’s eyes were filled with excitement.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Mo Lifang felt a burst of joy in her heart. Then, she said to Deacon Tang,
“Husband, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go home to get the spirit stones. I’ll be back soon.”
“Go on, go on.”
Deacon Tang waved his hand and asked her to hurry up so that she wouldn’t waste more time.
Mo Lifang walked very quickly and returned home not long after.
As soon as she entered the house, her three-year-old son ran over crying and pounced on her legs. He hugged one of her legs tightly and raised his head to sob.
“Mother, where were you just now?”
“I thought you didn’t want Da Bao anymore.”
“Wuwuwu…”
“I didn’t abandon Da Bao. 1 just went out to buy candy for Da Bao.”
As Mo Lifang spoke, she took out a candy she had bought on the way back and placed it in front of her son with a smile.
When his son saw that there was candy, he immediately stopped crying.
“Come, Da Bao, eat candy.”
Mo Lifang broke off a small piece of candy and brought it to her son’s mouth.
Her son was very sensible. He pushed the candy back and said with a sobbing tone,
“Mother, eat first.”
“Da Bao is so obedient. Let’s eat together.”
Mo Lifang broke off another small piece of candy and ate it at the same time as her son.
After that, she said gently to her son,
“Da Bao, I have something to do later and will leave for a period of time. I might only come back once in a long time. I’ll bring you to stay at the house of the uncles and aunties you know first, okay?”
“Da Bao don’t want Mother to leave!
“Da Bao, if you don’t listen to me, I won’t want you anymore!”
“Mother, don’t abandon Da Bao. Da Bao will listen!”
“Da Bao is so obedient.”
After comforting her son, Mo Lifang brought him to visit her neighbors from door to door to see if anyone was willing to take in her son.
However, after a round of visits, no one was willing to take her in.
In this environment, the residents of Green Willow Alley were all in danger. Many people could not even take care of themselves, so how could they have the time to adopt a child?
Some of the more ruthless male Cultivators even wanted to chase away their wives and concubines so that they could feed themselves.
She brought her son to visit again. Seeing that no one was willing to take her in, Mo Lifang gave up.
She looked at her young son beside her and struggled for a moment. In the end, she steeled her heart and said,
“Da Bao, I’ll bring you to the river to catch fish and play, okay?”
“Okay, Da Bao wants to catch a lot of fish for Mom to eat!”
“Da Bao is so obedient. Let’s go to the river.

On the other side, in the house.
As soon as Chen An returned from outside, he immediately went into the kitchen and personally cooked a sumptuous breakfast.
He made seven to eight dishes, and they were all favorites of his wife, concubine, and daughter.
Seeing that it was about time, Chen An went to the room and woke up his three wives and daughters. He asked them to quickly wash up and come out for breakfast.
This was to prevent breakfast from being cold and unpalatable after being left for too long.
Soon.
The family of five sat together and ate breakfast.
“Oh, husband, this fried dough stick is so fragrant and crispy. How did it explode? Husband, can you teach Ying’er later?”
“This soy milk is so delicious. It’s so sweet.”
“Yue’er, you usually like to drink soy milk. Aren’t you going to drink more?”
Song Huaying teased Gu Xinyue with a smile.
Gu Xinyue blushed when she heard that. She chose to lower her head and kept quiet.
Wen Zhiyun, who was at the side, carried Little Yuejian and gently fed her porridge.
“Come, Little Yuejian, open your mouth. Mother Wen will feed you porridge.”
Chen Yuejian was very obedient and ate every spoonful.
Seeing that his wife, concubine, and daughter were eating happily, Chen An felt blissful
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was present, he hesitated for a moment before saying to his three wives,
“Um… I have something to tell you.”
“Husband, what’s the matter?”
Song Huaying asked as she ate the fried dough sticks.
Wen Zhiyun and Gu Xinyue didn’t say anything, but they looked at Chen An.
Chen An stroked his chin and said in embarrassment,
“Actually, it’s nothing much. I’m just thinking that when I become a second-grade Alchemist, I’ll take in another concubine.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire dining table instantly fell silent.
But soon, Song Huaying happily supported him.
“Alright, alright. Ying’er is looking forward to Husband bringing an elder sister back!”
Song Huaying was only a mortal girl, so she couldn’t withstand much love. She only needed a drop from Chen An’an.
To her, the more concubines Chen An took, the better. Because this way, she could have more sisters.
Meanwhile, Gu Xinyue, who was beside her, was silently eating porridge. She neither supported nor objected to Chen An taking in a concubine.
As for Wen Zhiyun, who was sitting opposite him, she was very unhappy and had a lot of opinions about Chen An.
She put down the spoon in her hand and glared at Chen An. “Chen An, what do you mean? Isn’t it enough to have three at home? You want to take in another one?!”
“Cough cough!”
Chen An also felt a little guilty, but he still thickened his skin and analyzed reasonably.
“Yun’er, you’ve seen the growth of my cultivation these days.”
“At this rate of breakthrough, do you think the three of you can withstand my love for you in a year and a half after I become a Foundation Establishment expert?”
“Yun’er, think about it again. Did your husband’s love for you last night and this morning make you feel a little unbearable?”
Hearing Chen An’s words, Wen Zhiyun fell silent.
Because she realized that it was really as Chen An had said. She and her two sisters could not withstand all of Chen An’s love.
This was the case now, and it would be even more so in the future.
Seeing that she was wavering, Chen An hurriedly increased his efforts to persuade her and explain all kinds of reasons to her.
Upon seeing this, Song Huaying also persuaded him to raise her status in her husband’s heart as much as possible.
In the end, Wen Zhiyun was convinced.
She pursed her thin lips and compromised with Chen An.
“Sure, but I’ll tell you in advance. When the time comes, you have to bring her to the three of us to see and get our approval.”
“No problem.” Chen An agreed readily.
However, he only agreed verbally. If he really met someone he liked, he would not care about his wife and concubines’ opinions.
After breakfast, Chen An accompanied his daughter for a while and soon went to the alchemy room to start refining pills.
He wanted to refine more during the day and sell them at the Treasure Hall at night so that he would not waste time traveling back and forth.
In an instant, the sky turned dark.
Chen An put all the pills he had refined into the medicine box and prepared to go out to the Treasure Hall to sell them.
“Husband, it’s so dark now. Why don’t we go tomorrow morning?”
Song Huaying stood in front of the alchemy room and advised with a worried expression.
Gu Xinyue also advised, “Husband, listen to Ying’er.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon. I’ll bring a gift for each of you.”
Chen An said with a smile and kissed his three wives and concubines on the face.
Wen Zhiyun still felt worried. She frowned slightly and said to him,
“Why don’t I go with you?”
“No need. I ll be back soon. Go back to the house.”
Chen An left after saying that.
However, after taking two steps, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard and a familiar woman’s voice.
Knock, knock, knock!
“Alchemist Chen, it’s me. Fellow Cultivator Mo, can you come out and open the door?”
It was Mo Lifang’s voice.
Chen An was not in a hurry to open the door. Instead, he spread out his divine consciousness and sensed his surroundings. He realized that there was someone standing beside Mo Lifang.
It was none other than Deacon Tang from the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s Enforcement Hall..
