During the meal, Baker kept serving food to his two children. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's too much! Uncle! I can't finish it!"

At the dinner table, Neil yelled at him.

"Neil, Uncle Baker, even me...... I've never had a big appetite. As she spoke, Xia Li glanced at Neil, who was sitting next to her.

"You two need nutrition the most, eat as much as you can. Baker didn't stop picking up the vegetables, and continued to pour various foods into the bowls of the two.

"It's full, it's going to fall off!" Neil continued to scream.

Neil couldn't stand it anymore, he stared at Baker, and when he brought the food over again, he immediately snatched the chopsticks that the other party was holding in his hand with one hand, threw them aside, and covered them with his hands to prevent the other party from snatching it back.

"If you are so enthusiastic, I won't eat this meal!"

"Ah......" Xia Li was a little surprised, she didn't expect Neil to use this trick to say something similar to a threat.

"What a great statement!"

Ami floated leisurely beside him.

Watching Neil's movements, Baker had a little loss on his face, and even a little wry smile.

"Neil, Charlie, I just want you to grow a little taller. When I came in, I saw that you weren't the same two little beans you used to be, but ......"

Baker raised his arm and gestured to a certain height in mid-air.

"If it's Neil, at your age, you can at least reach a height of 1.78 meters, but your head is only 1.65 meters. You've had a worrying past few years...... I don't see you as I do when the letters come and go, and I don't see you mention such things. ”

"Isn't this the time to worry about this? Besides, you have to talk about height when you eat?" Neil doesn't like people to mention his height, and in the past few years, the people around him have basically known that they care about height things, and they don't talk about it, and over time, everyone treats this matter as if they don't know, ignoring the past.

Neil himself, pretending not to know, ignores it when it didn't happen.

"Yes, too...... Being a dragon slayer knight is very hard......"

With a look of regret on his face, Baker said slowly, "At that time, I was the one who knew best that you had the talent for light magic, and I didn't want to force you to make a choice, so I felt that you would be allowed to go the way you wanted. If I had known that the two of you were working so hard, at least through the previous relationship, it would have been easier to send you to the temple as a knight. Women are not allowed to join the Sifang Temple, however, the Temple Branch can, Xia Li, it will be easier for you to go to the Temple Branch, not as hard as it is now. ”

"No matter how hard it is, we choose it ourselves! Don't think about it so much!"

"But I think the people in the temple are the same as we are. ”

Neil Charlie expressed her thoughts.

"You can say these things because you still grow up. ”

Baker had a complicated expression on his face, but there was an indescribable relief.

Although he felt a kind of loneliness in his heart and did not see their growth process with his own eyes, he still felt very proud of the result.

“…… Anyway, don't you want to put food on us again!"

"Neil, I finally deviated from the topic, how can I say this again......" Xia Li looked a little helpless.

Looking at Baker's complicated expression, suddenly, a picture quickly flashed in his mind, which was some words that the head shaman of the Xuanwu Temple, Kozmo, had said when he was leaving.

It was so fast that Neil couldn't remember what it was.

“……”

"What's going on?

Xia Li was a little worried when she saw Neil stop with a strange look on his face.

Baker also stared at Neil's face, a little confused.

"What's uncomfortable?" Baker thought Neil's face was good, not at all unhealthy.

“…… Ahh Anyway, uncle, we'll come back to see you often in the future, and whenever you need us, we'll rush back immediately, except when we run into the dragon. ”

"I see, Neil started to notice because we had been away from home for so long. ”

Baker remembered their experience in the past few years, although it was the path they chose, he didn't want the two children to be in danger, facing the dragon directly.

Baker sighed softly in his heart, these words could not be spoken, and now he could only watch their efforts.

Thinking of this, Baker's expression smiled again, and the atmosphere changed from the depression just now.

Eating should be a happy one, so Baker quickly changed the subject: "You brought so many things with you when you came back, I originally planned to go to the shopping street to buy some things for daily needs, but now it seems that I don't need them anymore." Neil, I'm glad to have Charlie by your side, so I'm a little less worried. ”

"What, all of a sudden. ”

"Neil, he's pretty stupid sometimes. Xia Li suddenly laughed.

"What do you mean by being stupid, Xia Li, what do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? You forgot, the inn we went to half a year ago, that day you happened to keep the money bag, when you were paying, you didn't even look at it, so you took out the gold coins and gave them out as silver coins, fortunately I was around to call you in time, otherwise you would have lost a lot." ”

"Why do you remember that so clearly? I've forgotten, or rather, you made it up because I forgot it?"

"No, there are many more things like that. It's like on the way here, while you're shopping, you're staring at a bowl that looks like you've used it for a long time. When I turned around, the bowl shattered, the boy was really careless, in many ways. ”

"That's not my fault, that's Ami. ”

"Oops, how about Ami, Ami was just about to take a nap when he was disturbed by Neil. ”

"Excalibur doesn't need to sleep at all, you're obviously pretending to be asleep!"

"Neil, you're not Excalibur, how do you know Excalibur doesn't need to rest. ”

"Hey, Ami!"

Although they said meaningless words, Baker was very happy to see it, and the last bit of worry about Neil was quietly put down.

Then, Charlie began to tell Baker about some of the recent events.

"Uncle Baker, although we are here to see you, we have other tasks on our business, I hope you can help, I will say it here in advance, we will stay here for a few days. In a few days, the next place to go is the White Tiger Temple, go and apply for a relief payment......"

Xia Li told all about going to the mountain town of Jiainrut to fight the dragon, witnessing Teacher Swider and his relatives recognize each other, living in that mountain city at the request of Teacher Swide, and then about the relief money. Of course, there are also things that have not been hidden about the Sword of Thunder in the middle.

"How can you encounter so many things, even the Sword of Thunder?"

"The matter of the Sword of Thunder is still not very clear, but I heard Mr. Swider say that the sword was found more than ten years ago, and the current owner of the Sword of Thunder made a contract with it more than ten years ago, and this matter is still a secret. The people of the Carranslan Empire didn't even know that apart from the old king and Mr. Swided, there seemed to be a few people who participated in this event at that time. That's probably what it looks like!"

Neil, who seemed to hear about it for the first time, called out to Charlie.

"Why didn't I know about this?"

"Because you can easily slip your tongue, Mr. Swider told me one, and at that time, the owner of the Sword of Thunder was too young, so he sealed off the matter. However, what is said to have happened to him, I think it is very complicated, those nobles and families. ”

“…… It's too much, obviously I'm his real disciple......"

……

After lunch, Baker flipped the sign outside the door and didn't plan to open the store in the afternoon.

Back at the house, Baker sees Charlie and Neil washing dishes in the kitchen and walks over.

"Have the dishes been washed? I'll clean up the upstairs room later, I'll live here for a few days, I'll be wronged for the time being, Xia Li, you can sleep in that room, Neil, you and I will sleep on the sofa in the hall, I'll get the sofa together, one for each person, how about it?"

“…… Sure enough, I still have to sleep on the sofa, there are only two rooms on the second floor that can sleep, why do you and I have to sleep on the sofa, isn't there still one?"

Suddenly, a bowl fell to the ground and shattered.

The bowl was held by Charlie just now, and when she heard Neil's words, she let go of her hand.

"Charlie?!"

Baker yelled at her.

"Charlie !!"

Neil also called her name.

"Now, Neil, you didn't mean to say that, did you?"

"How, how?"

Neil looked nervous, looking a little timid, as if he had said the wrong thing.

"What's your tone just now? Are you questioning? The two rooms on the second floor? You went to the second floor when I was helping Uncle Baker tidy up that pile of stuff just now, right?"

"And, it's not like you don't know that in the past few years, Uncle Baker and ......"

"That's enough, Charlie, don't say any more. ”

Baker stopped her from continuing and picked up the pieces on the ground.

"I know there's a nice inn, so go there these days. It sounds a bit cruel, but I think you finally have the courage to face it all when you finally come back here. ”

"No...... I ......"

"If I had it, I'd have kicked that guy out. Neil lowered his head and turned away.

"Neil, shut up!!"

Charlie roared at Neil, and her voice was full of anger.

"Uncle's words are not wrong, we are really going to stay in a hotel if we continue, Xia Li. ”

"Alas......" Baker sighed softly, which sounded like nothing, and turned sideways, and walked out silently.

There were two people left in the kitchen, and after a moment of silence, the anger in Xia Li's heart disappeared, and she realized that she was too impulsive to hold back, and she lost her mind for a while because she was too excited, so she sorted out her emotions.

“…… What, suddenly saying such serious words, it's not like the usual Neil at all. ”

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to comfort anyone. ”

Neil grabbed her hands suddenly, "Come here! you suggested that we come back, and I accepted your idea." Now, whatever means you use, you have to do what I want. Don't tell me you're not mentally prepared yet, like you just said, well, I'll admit I did it on purpose. Even if I force you over, I will never let you stay in this cramped kitchen. ”
