Chapter 344: Chapter 311: Where’s Your Mom?

Lightning-struck wood?

No wonder it knocked her out in one hit.

Jiang Xiao held the Peach Wood Sword and stroked it repeatedly, never imagining that this decorative piece was actually an enchanted true-damage artifact.

So next time I fight, do I not need to use my fists?

And this thing can be used to stab or chop; if I run into a pervert, I’ll just take the part struck by lightning and give ’em a good poke~

Should I say it or not, Fei Yu and the others feel there’s something slightly off about the smile on Jiang Xiao’s face right now...

Days without danger are just so boring...

In the blink of an eye, the fourth day arrived.

Jiang Xiao was puzzled.

"How strange, where’s my mom? Didn’t the note say she’d be back in a couple of days? Could she be dead out there?"

What kind of joke is that?

But you know what, don’t even say it.

Some other people’s moms did indeed come back.

Take for example, the mom of Asan Guo’s Xue Ding’e, who returned on the third day’s afternoon.

He had fully learned from the death experience of his predecessor Lasi Buzhan Shou.

As the proverb goes, learn from the past to guide the future.

So even though he knew the four women in front of him were of unparalleled beauty, he had no improper thoughts.

In daily interactions, he was extremely respectful, even repeating rules in his head just to tie his shoelaces, for fear of accidentally breaching any of them.

He worked from dawn till dusk in town, and promptly turned in his wages.

Yes, that’s right, you heard correctly, just plain work.

Not only Xue Ding’e, but almost all the nations without gold notes had taken the path of working—[a guaranteed way to earn].

As they say, work cures a thousand woes.

And it was extremely effective!

Xue Ding’e could earn about forty dollars a day, then give fifteen to Fei Yu, ten to Fei Mi, and five each to Zhenzhen and Aiai.

That way, he still had about ten dollars left for himself each day...

I’m raking it in!

Although Xue Ding’e didn’t have much money in hand now, he firmly believed that every little bit counts, and small amounts add up—saving up for next time he entered Kaidan.

To be honest, if he was lucky, he might even do some small business.

Getting rich wouldn’t be too hard!

After all, Xue Ding’e was quite confident in his Asan cuisine, planning to open a small stall to sell Asan-style porridge, to promote Asan cuisine in the Kaidan world.

In the end, he, with a handful of money, could have the female ghosts grinding for him!

"Hahaha, made another forty-seven today, I’m really getting rich!"

Xue Ding’e came home before dinner time.

Hmm?

He was startled as soon as he entered, who’s this?

Sitting in the center of the sofa was a woman, who exuded natural authority without anger, and indeed, was very beautiful—perhaps even more so than Fei Yu by a fraction.

Facing her, with their heads bowed and appearing utterly docile, were the four women of Fei Yu.

This...

It didn’t take long for viewers in Asan Guo’s live stream to comment.

[Master Extinction, she has the aura of the actress Zhou Huimei’s version of Master Extinction.]

[She’s beautiful, but she’s intimidating. Attractive in one respect, fearsome in another, no conflict.]

"Mom?"

Even though the woman hadn’t spoken, Xue Ding’e subconsciously blurted out the word "mom."

For some reason, this woman gave him the impression she was his mother, indistinguishable from the perfect mother he’d imagined in his mind.

The woman smiled and gestured for Xue Ding’e to come over.

"Have you not been obediently listening to your little mothers these past two days?"

Xue Ding’e nodded frantically, indicating not only had he been obedient, but he’d also gone out to work to contribute to the family income!

"You’ve been so good? But you should be careful, you’re still young and may not be aware of the city’s deceitful ways. Many heartless bosses like to deduct and exploit labor wages nowadays. You don’t need to go out these next couple of days. Stay home and keep your mom company."

The woman, holding the hand of the boy as he skipped and hopped along, spoke with deep affection and even tenderly stroked the back of his head.

"Did those two girls, Fei Yu, bully you? If they did, just tell Mom, and I’ll teach them a lesson for you!"

His eyes slightly red and his nose tingling, was this what it felt like to bask in favoritism?

Indeed, there is no one in the world like Mom!

"No, no, the little moms from Fei Yu were quite nice to me."

"That’s good. Here, I bought some snacks, toys, and clothes for you and Zhenzhen Aiai on this trip. Go ahead and try them on."

"Mm, okay, thank you, Mom!"

Concealing the tears he was about to shed out of emotion, he and Zhenzhen Aiai took the clothes and went back to their room to try them on.

"Wow, my dear son looks so sharp in his new clothes!"

It wasn’t just new clothes, the woman also bought a lot of meat and eggs and personally cooked an extremely delicious dinner.

Honestly, the boy ate while crying.

What kind of living hell had he endured for the past three days?

The food was so oily that not even dogs would eat it, and though the oil smelled rich, it was accompanied by an inescapable sour stench.

Now that he had this normal and delicious meal, he couldn’t hold back the tears any longer.

"Baby, why are you crying? Don’t you like the food Mom made?"

The boy, so overwhelmed that he could only sob and shake his head, indicated that the food was very tasty, unable even to utter a complete sentence.

Damn it!

No way!

"Did this kid just win an easy round?"

"Not only him, but the other Chosen Ones’ moms also came back, saying and cooking the same things, and all those Chosen Ones were moved to tears without exception."

"What about Jiang Xiao’s mom? I wanted to see their mother and son clash."

I’m not cursing, seriously.

But Jiang Xiao’s mom was indeed gone...

At least from the afternoon of the third day until the morning of the fourth day, she had not appeared around Jiang Xiao.

...

"Get up! What’s this mess? Didn’t the note I left say you should pay attention to personal hygiene? Look at this room!"

The boy, still groggy with sleep, was abruptly whipped out of bed by his mother’s stern kicks.

"What are you waiting for? Get up and eat! After breakfast, you better clean this place up!"

The boy was baffled.

Wait a minute.

Wasn’t Mom not like this last night?

Was he still dreaming?

"Slap!"

His mother’s slap jolted him awake.

"Get up now! After eating breakfast, start cleaning!"

Indeed, his room was a mess; he hadn’t tidied it up for days. Maybe his mother had a point to be upset, the boy consoled himself.

But little did he know that this was just the beginning of a nightmare.

"Done eating? Why didn’t you finish? I work hard to earn money for this family, and you’re wasting food? Am I supposed to be okay with that? Finish it! And when you’re done, wash your own dishes! Do you still think you’re a child? At your age, do I still need to wash dishes for you?"

The boy was silent.

Truly, he should handle his own responsibilities; his mother was teaching him right.

"Your clothes, why are they so dirty! I just bought them yesterday, and you wear them like this? Take them off! Put your old clothes back on!"

He meekly asked if he should go out and do some odd jobs to help with the family expenses?

"Do what jobs? You’re just a kid, what jobs can you do? That’s for adults to handle, what do you understand? What if someone tricks you?"

The boy was puzzled.

So, you get to say both the good and the bad?

When you say I’m not a child but an adult, and then say that working has nothing to do with a child like me?

So what species do I belong to?

"Schrödinger’s age group?"
