As soon as the two walked in, they immediately attracted the attention of Li's father and mother. Mother Li stood up to greet them enthusiastically.
Li Yi seemed to be infected by this atmosphere, and said in a good mood: "Mom and Dad, I'm back."
"You're back so late, the food is almost cold." Li's mother gave a nonchalant lecture, then turned to look at Dong Yunshu beside her, and her face instantly filled with a smile.
"Yunshu, just do it inside. Don't be polite and treat this as your own home. No, this is your home."
Li's mother pulled Dong Yunshu to sit down, but she ignored her son Li Yi. Her attitude was so different that it was really sad.
Dong Yunshu nodded and thanked him: "Thank you, Auntie."
Li Yi smiled helplessly and found a bench to sit down.
To the Li family, Li Yi was their own son, but Dong Yunshu was different. If they didn't marry such a good girl as soon as possible, they would lose a lot. She was so beautiful, with the appearance of a graceful lady from a noble family. At first glance, she was a virtuous woman.
Everyone sat down, Li Yi and Dong Yunshu sat on one side, and Li's father and mother sat on the other. Although there were not many people, the atmosphere was very good.
"Let's eat. Eat more vegetables and less rice."
The first dish Li Yi set his sights on was the pork with preserved vegetables. A round bowl about the size of a palm was filled with pork. The aroma was tangy, the sauce was shiny red, the soup was thick and delicious, and the pork tasted fat but not greasy, soft and mellow.
What surprised Li Yi was that the braised pork skin was fried, and the surface was crispy. It made a crunchy sound when bitten, adding to the flavor.
Li's mother beside her had already started to make indirect comments, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Yunshu, you are from Qi, are you interested in developing in Zhou? Although Zhou is not as developed as Qi, it is not much worse, and the cost of living is not as high as there."
Dong Yunshu answered without hesitation: "I have a family business in Qi and I am afraid I can't leave it, but I can come to see Brother Li often, if he doesn't mind."
Although she basically didn't care about worldly affairs, she knew that coming to Zhou was impossible. As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain. The Tianjian Sect would not give up Qi's position and come to Zhou, and Shangqing Palace would probably not be willing to do so. Moreover, even if the Tianjian Sect and Shangqing Palace agreed, Zhou and Qi would not agree.
Dong Yunshu once had a similar idea and told many elders in the sect.
At that time, the high-ranking officials in Qi region were frightened and shocked. The prime minister of Qi visited Tianque Mountain seven times a week, and many elders in the sect also tried to dissuade them.
The Sword Immortal was Qi's pillar of support. Without the Sword Immortal, Qi would have to compete with Yan and Zhao for the third-to-last spot in Shenzhou. As the recovery of the world intensified, Qi could no longer do without the Sword Immortal.
The sword fairy herself would not give up Qi easily, after all, there was a cause and effect between them. Moreover, there was no conflict between Li Yi and Qi, and it was not said that the former could not get the latter. With her speed, she could travel back and forth between the two places.
Hearing this answer, Li's mother felt even more worried. It sounded like this girl's family should have some property.
It might be difficult for these two people from different social classes to be together. But this is a matter for young people, and the two old guys over fifty can't intervene or provide much help.
She continued with a smile, "How could I dislike it? Come whenever you want in the future."
After saying that, Li's mother turned around and glared at her son who was eating the food with big mouthfuls, and said, "You just focused on eating by yourself and didn't even pick up some food for Yunshu."
Li Yi swallowed a big mouthful of meat, and then obediently picked up a piece of braised pork for Dong Yunshu.
"This is delicious, eat more."
"Yeah." Dong Yunshu smiled slightly, a very shallow smile, but for some reason very dazzling. At this moment, she took into account that Li Yi's parents were ordinary people, and her aura was completely restrained, so her appearance naturally became very conspicuous.
Both Li's father and mother were stunned by what they saw. This girl must have an extraordinary family background.
"How long do you plan to stay this time? Are you leaving tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?" After two glasses of wine, Father Li's face turned slightly red, and he became talkative instead of being a taciturn person.
"I plan to stay here for the New Year." Dong Yunshu answered truthfully. When he was in the world of immortal cultivation, he would accompany Li Changsheng as long as he was not busy with cultivation or other things, especially on special days like the Spring Festival.
Because Brother Li said that New Year’s Eve is spent with family, and since they are a Taoist couple, they are naturally no worse than family members.
Father and Mother Li were stunned for a moment. Seeing their puzzled expressions, Dong Yunshu tilted his head slightly and asked, "Is it not possible?"
"It's not impossible. We welcome you to stay. It's just that..." Father Li said hesitantly, "Do your parents agree? It's the Spring Festival after all."
"I have no family."
Dong Yunshu still answered truthfully, but his unhesitating tone and his expression that rarely showed emotion made people feel distressed.
At least in the eyes of the two elders, Dong Yunshu looked pitiful for a moment.
Mother Li was more sentimental, with tears in her eyes. She said, "My child, treat this place as your home from now on. Li Yi! If you dare to let Yun Shu down in the future, I will definitely kick you out of the house."
"Um?"
Zaishen, who was eating, looked up in bewilderment. How come he got shot again while lying down?
Li Yi turned his head and glanced at Dong Yunshu. At this moment, the other party's eyes evaded for the second time, which was an extremely abnormal phenomenon. Xue Ye has always been a very pure person, straightforward and never hides his thoughts.
But today, for some reason, he became much more cunning and had some little thoughts, but his state of mind seemed to be fine.
What exactly happened?
After tea and dinner, after cleaning up the table, it was 10 o'clock in the evening and time to go to bed.
Since this was the New Year's Eve dinner, it was late outside and there was no place to stay. Father and Mother Li had to stay at home, and Li Yi and Dong Yunshu had to share a room.
