[Sorry, Mazu, it’s my fault for not being filial. I’ve been studying abroad for the past two years, where there are no Mazu Temples to worship. I’ve returned this year, hoping to make my mark domestically. 180CM, 18CM, and a yearly salary around 1.8M. - From a top biological science student returned from the Ivy League, wishing to Mazu in their heart.]
[Wish Fulfilled: Forever a Youth (A youth who hasn’t achieved their ideal physique, who even before dying still desires to return to their adolescent period, hoping to grow like a young person. Residence at Building 1309, Lane 12, Left Street, Lin Group Holding Company residential area, phone: ....)]
"A nice 180, 18, 180. I’ll go back and tell Lin Ying tonight to give you a break. I remember there’s a technology on the other side for forced growth. By tomorrow latest, we’ll take the Paw Patrol ferry to sneak over for surgery."
Yet another wish originally made to Mazu subtly shifts to Ansheng, and this time the wisher seems to be someone familiar?
Seeing the Ivy League top student making a wish, Ansheng couldn’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed.
You’re a biology student talking about these things; do you really think it’s appropriate?
Can you not tell if you can continue to develop?
In the first courtyard of the Celestial Empress Palace’s main lobby, there was a crowd of about a hundred people. As they entered and burned incense, some wished to Mazu in their hearts, while others chatted with Mazu, shocking even the fox.
The little fox arriving in the lobby.
It’s like a tortoise falling into the temple’s pond, becoming a genuine wishing tortoise.
Wishes float above the lobby, and with the little fox’s arrival, they orderly lined up on its wish list, occasionally marked with ways to fulfill them.
It’s somewhat like a hell joke.
A beauty-loving bucktoothed girl.
The normal course of treatment should be braces, slowly correcting the developmental deformed teeth, and then removing the braces.
However, the wish fulfillment details inside and out remind you to pull out the girl’s buckteeth.
True, the buckteeth are gone, and the girl’s parents seeing this will certainly take her to get dental implants, fundamentally addressing the root of the girl’s inferiority complex.
But making the little fox pull out her teeth carries a hell joke kind of humor.
And then there’s the girl with masculine features who desperately wishes to be a muscular guy. You can’t directly invite her to a club, right?
Better not see her regularly involved in anti-vice operations.
"Though you all grew up with Mazu watching, you can’t let yourself run wild in wishing!"
"If you keep doing this, I’m genuinely afraid you’ll be unhappy once your wish comes true." Ansheng looked at the constantly refreshing wish list, with a peculiar expression.
The subcontracted business received at the Celestial Empress Palace all came with addresses and contact information.
Requests for romance numbered over twenty, enough for the little fox to play puzzle games on their phone all night.
The worshippers were notably free while wishing, chatting with Mazu.
Resulting in the little fox’s wish list containing very capricious ways of fulfillment.
Ansheng even saw an assassination wish, hoping their romantic rival would be hit by a car and thrown into the air.
"Bleat, bleat..."
Ansheng withdrew his gaze, with curiosity in the fox’s big eyes, looking at Yu Xueqing and Mo Yiqing, curious about their wishes.
One was clever and adroit, another unruly and defiant.
Mo Yiqing held incense but did not kneel like the others, instead raised it high, faced the direction of the Mazu Temple, and bowed three times with her eyes closed.
[Mazu bless.... This time, it was purely to escape the plague god and I came hurriedly, completely forgetting to bring any beauty products for Mazu offerings. I’ll make it up next visit, hoping Mazu can bless me with eating without gaining weight; breakups every few weeks are quite painful otherwise.]
[By the way, Mazu, don’t believe in ice point hair removal. I was hesitant, but after seeing my friend’s straight hair swell into lumps, I freaked out, worried about scars that won’t heal. Breakups every few weeks are better than eternal heartbreak! —Not fond of men, nor women, just obsessed with myself, Mo Yiqing vented her minor disappointment to Mazu.]
[Wish Fulfilled: Fall in Love with Yourself (In Xi Shi’s eyes surpassingly beautiful than herself, the girl maintains a splendid S-shaped figure, exerting significant energy on this, occasionally wishing for the fox to serve tea, do laundry, and cook.)]
Ansheng: "........"
Sis, your wish is a bit off. Could you change it to beating your suitor?"
I’m proficient in fighting, and soon I’ll go up the mountain to bring over the King Cobra, Ah Bai, and the strange fish; we’ll properly entertain that suitor.
Evidently, although Mo Yiqing constantly vented about her sticky suitor earlier, she didn’t actually concern herself with them. Avoiding them is just feeling that person’s too disgusting, a clean break it is.
Mo Yiqing’s wishes to the little fox over two days almost all focused on body image anxieties.
It’s not general narcissism but a genuine liking for the reflection of herself in the mirror.
"Rich sisters have all kinds of wishes, basically none the fox can solve....." Seeing Mo Yiqing’s wish to Mazu, Ansheng internally mocked Mo Yiqing’s intense mental exhaustion.
She obviously possesses a perfect figure and refined face that is hard for the average person to achieve, yet she remains anxious, even breaking up with her mirrored self over a hundred or two grams of weight gain.
Mo Yiqing should have significant mental pressure, right?
Hope she doesn’t end up with problems, confronting this generous Yu Xueqing, Ansheng timidly finds a good impression of Mo Yiqing; she genuinely doesn’t treat the fox as an outsider.
Ansheng looked back at Yu Xueqing, pulling out the wish list in his mind.
[Hmm... Should I tell Dad I’m at the Mazu Temple? Feels like if I tell them, Dad and Mom will play cat and mouse again. - Yu Xueqing contemplating harmony within the family with a thoughtful look.]
[Wish Fulfilled: Donate Five Thousand to Mazu.]
Yu Xueqing wasn’t making a wish; she was pondering a family matter.
Yu Zhenghong worships everything, even regular roadside gods, but merely as a form of politeness, without deep sincerity.
Yet, for Mazu, each time Yu Zhenghong will pull five thousand out of his slush fund to donate.
Yu Zhenghong’s ancestors were fishermen. Alone in the boundless ocean, faced with waves and gales threatening to capsize the boat at any moment, steady resolve and some faith in the heart were indeed crucial to persevering.
Without Mazu in earlier times, the Yu ancestors might not have held on.
To Yu Zhenghong, Mazu is a true lifesaver.
Without Mazu, the Yu ancestors might long have stopped fishing, ending up wandering in the market, graffitiing Yu Zhenghong’s elders on the walls...
"Dad, I’m at the Mazu Temple."
"Got it, Dad will transfer you five thousand, write our family name and donate to Mazu."
"No, no, no... Giving money’s too tacky; go buy a set of high-end cosmetics like SK2 or something from the mall downtown, offer them to Mazu, let Mazu adorn sunscreen beautifully during the scorching summer."
Over the phone, Yu Zhenghong thought and told Yu Xueqing.
