In the familiar kitchen, at the familiar dining table.
Li Hong was having a home-cooked dinner with her two children. What made Du Yu feel even more familiar was that the sitting positions of the three of them had not changed.
"Come on, Xiao Yu." Li Hong picked up another braised pork rib for Du Yu, "Eat more."
"That's enough, Teacher Li. I can't eat anymore." Du Yu picked up the bowl and took the food, saying hurriedly.
There were already a lot of bones on his table, and he had been eating this meal for a while.
Li Hong smiled and said, "Didn't you say you were still 1 centimeter away? If you eat more, you will grow taller. You are only 20, there is still hope."
"That's right." Li Mengnan also picked up a piece of ribs, "Grow taller quickly, or I will catch up with you."
The girl picked up the tempting braised spareribs, took a small bite, and her lips were stained with golden fat.
It looks delicious indeed.
Li Hong turned her head and looked at her daughter, saying, "You should eat less. How can you get married when you are so tall?"
"Eh?" Li Mengnan blinked. "Mom, I'm only 20 years old! I'm just a junior at the beginning of the school year. Why would I marry someone?"
"Have you been to school?" Li Hong looked at her daughter with a smile, "Haven't you been working for a long time?"
Li Mengnan: “.”
Du Yu hurriedly said: "Teacher Li, don't worry, although we don't study in the Monster Academy every day like other students.
But we had Master Yang Qingqing to train us, so we didn’t miss out on learning anything we needed to.
With the Youth Master teaching us, we won’t go astray.”
"I know Ms. Yang. I heard that she is now your director." Li Hong looked at Du Yu with gratitude, "Xiao Yu, the teacher is very grateful to you for helping Nan Nan find such a master."
"Oh my, Mom!" Li Mengnan said unwillingly, "You kept thanking Du Yu for this meal. It's really too formal."
Li Hong sighed in her heart, no matter how many words of thanks she said, it would not be enough.
Ever since the two children embarked on the journey to subdue monsters, Li Hong no longer had the ability to help them.
Before Du Yu left home, Li Hong talked to Du Yu alone and asked him to help look after her reckless daughter.
Who would have thought that in the past two years, Du Yu's development has been amazing.
Achievements, reputation, honor, and strength.
The best of its time.
These are just the tip of the iceberg that he presents to the public.
Such a talented young man always remembered the kindness of the Li family, and even more so remembered her instructions when he left home.
Li Hong was dumbfounded by Du Yu's care for his daughter, and even felt a little at a loss.
Li Hong was aware that her daughter, as a disciple of Paper Crane, was very talented. After all, this was recognized by society.
But Da Xia has so many Paper Crane disciples, and there are even more children of aristocratic families. They have resources, connections, and everything.
And Li Mengnan is just a girl from an ordinary family.
Why is it that my daughter's strength is always so far ahead of everyone else, her grades are always among the best, and she can even take first place in Ancient Desert City
Counting according to that transcript, which one of those Paper Crane disciples was not from the Demon-Controlling Family
Why should my daughter become a disciple of the famous Qing teacher
Why can he enter the 29th Bureau of Daxia Bookstore
The daughter also possesses a number of powerful magical instruments, and even a world of her own.
Two words: Du Yu.
Li Hong didn't know how Du Yu had made it to where he was today, but she knew very well how her daughter had gotten to where she was today.
"I'm full!" Li Mengnan licked his lips. "How about you, Du Yu?"
Since Teacher Li Hong had finished her meal early, Du Yu nodded and said, "I'm full too. You guys go in and I'll clean up."
Li Hong was about to refuse, but Li Mengnan smiled and said, "Just let him do it. In our family, it has always been Du Yu who cleans the table and washes the dishes."
Li Hong was helpless and looked at her daughter with a smile.
This is true. Du Yu was taken in by a kind-hearted class teacher. He had no way to repay him, so he could only do what he could.
Du Yu picked up the plate and said, "Mengnan, take the teacher to Taoyuan for a walk. I will have packed it up by the time you come back."
On the way here in the car, Li Mengnan said that his mother liked Fengtao Forest very much.
"Good idea!" Li Mengnan's eyes lit up and he casually pulled out a tin staff.
“Ding~”
The handles of the sticks lightly touched the ground, and the two of them immediately disappeared into the kitchen.
"You kid." Li Hong looked at her reckless daughter, "You are still so impatient. We didn't even change our shoes."
"Hehe." Li Mengnan smiled and summoned Feng Wuwu casually.
Although Li Hong is an ordinary person, living in this world, she is not surprised by the demon pets.
But Feng Wuwu is really too big.
Although the knitted face appears to be smiling, it always gives people a weird feeling.
Li Mengnan put the cloak on his mother without saying anything and said, "Feng Wuwu, be gentle."
"Huh~" The long tail swayed gently, responding to its owner.
For ordinary people, mountain roads are not easy to walk on.
"Oh," Li Hong sighed. At this point, she really couldn't control her daughter anymore.
"Why are you sighing?" Li Mengnan took her mother's arm and said, "Let's go and see the peach tree."
In this paradise that belongs exclusively to her daughter, Li Hong asked, "How are you and Xiao Yu getting along?"
"It's pretty good." Li Mengnan said casually.
Looking at the maple tree branches leaning down, the girl smiled and patted the leaves to say hello.
"Nannan, don't play dumb with me."
Li Mengnan blushed slightly and whispered, "That's it."
It seemed that the mother and daughter had talked about him many times at a time and place unknown to Du Yu.
Li Hong said softly: "Xiao Yu is a very kind child."
Li Mengnan muttered quietly: "Now I agree with my father again."
Li Hong laughed and scolded, "What are you mumbling about? If you have something to say, speak up."
Li Mengnan shrank his neck in fear, as if he remembered the time when he was playing tricks in class and was ruthlessly scolded by his mother.
Li Hong: "Go ahead and say it. I asked you to say it but you won't say it?"
Wow! It’s just so delicious!
In one sentence, it takes you back to high school classroom.
Li Mengnan hugged her mother's arm and whispered, "Mom, we are all demon masters. We can't take care of our demon pets and practice every day."
As he spoke, Li Mengnan seemed unusually melancholy.
The girl took a deep breath and said, "I'm better now. I spend more time practicing. But Du Yu has to do one mission after another. Once he leaves this battlefield, he will enter the next one.
The third sister is such a brave and strong girl, but she is still enduring it.
If I say it out loud, what if, well, the days ahead are still very, very long, very, very long."
Third sister
Li Hong knew who her daughter was talking about, Lin Shiwei.
Miss Lin is also a disciple of Master Qing and a colleague of my daughter in the 29th Bureau. She is also a descendant of the famous demon-controlling family in Songguta City, the Lin family.
But Li Hong was somewhat confused by what her daughter said.
What does "the third sister is still enduring" mean
Since you have seen it all, why don’t you have any sense of crisis
Although her daughter is carefree and heartless, Li Hong doesn't think her daughter would be so stupid as to not react.
After all, the premise for my daughter to say this is that she has already seen the clues.
Or maybe
As she thought about it, Li Hong was stunned.
Have you and Miss Lin communicated privately about such sensitive matters
You guys here
"Mom." Li Mengnan, who was usually crazy, looked serious for a rare time, "We are not ordinary people, our world is different.
During this assessment, I met an old lady. "
Li Hong calmed down and listened to her daughter's words.
Li Mengnan: "Senior Feng, one of the Seven Saints of Daxia, is over 130 years old, but he looks like a man in his 30s.
The old lady I met this time was also one of the Seven Saints of Daxia, and was often referred to as the Emperor of Heaven and Empress of Earth. However, she looked to be 80 or 90 years old.
Can you imagine how old she is?"
Li Hong shook her head silently.
Li Mengnan also shook his head and sighed, "I don't know either, but this old woman must have lived for a very long time, and even witnessed the rise and fall of Daxia.
The major events that happened hundreds of years ago as described in history books may have been personally experienced by this senior. "
Listening to these fairy-tale-like words, Li Hong couldn't help but feel secretly sad.
Even the demon tamers would be secretly shocked when hearing about this kind of thing, let alone ordinary people.
Li Mengnan: "We are demon tamers, mother, you can't look at us with worldly eyes.
It's good to just stay with him like this."
"You've grown up, Nannan." Li Hong looked at the peach forest ahead, "There are many things you say that mom doesn't understand, but I know that the mission you are carrying out is very dangerous, and your father and I are also getting older.
I think we can rest assured that Xiaoyu will always protect you."
"Mom will live a long time!" Li Mengnan said hurriedly, "Last time she scolded me for a whole class, I didn't even drink a glass of water, and now I'm in good health!"
Li Hong laughed and scolded, "Go."
"Hehe~" Li Mengnan smiled and came to the edge of the Ten-Li Feng Peach Forest. "He is taking good care of me now. He has always been taking care of me."
The girl who was always reckless now had bright and lively eyes.
She murmured softly, "I have been controlling monsters for two years. Senior Brother Fu once told me that my experience in the past two years is equivalent to that of other monster controllers in their entire lives.
Mom, I have seen a lot and felt a lot.
I know what I want and I know how to do it.”
The girl added secretly in her heart: At least, I know how to do this.
"Hey," Li Hong sighed heavily and walked slowly into the Fengtao Forest, "Okay."
Pink and white peach petals fluttered and fell, landing on the heads of the mother and daughter, turning into bits of energy and dissipating in the wind.
The beautiful peach blossom rain made Li Mengnan's eyes blurry.
But Li Hong, who has always loved this strange and magical plant, had no intention of appreciating it.
After enduring for a long time, Li Hong finally said, "You just said that Miss Lin has been enduring..."
"Oh, Mom!" Li Mengnan said unwillingly, "Don't worry about my affairs."
"Okay, okay, whatever."
"It's a deal!" Li Mengnan stretched out his white palm and spread it flat in the air.
A person's way of taming monsters is their philosophy of existence. The stronger the monster tamer, the more deeply rooted their philosophy is.
And with his skills in taming monsters, how could he leave so easily
The girl caught a falling peach petal, and as her fingers closed, she grasped the petal in her palm.
Humph, you can’t run away.
