Having found a demon, I've decided to raise her.

"Hmm... but I think so."

Chen Ming smiled, then took the landlady's hand and led her to the stall.

There are many stalls selling Kongming lanterns.

Is it okay to release sky lanterns in the county town? Won't one of them fall and cause an accident?

But seeing that everyone is putting them out, it should be fine, right? Police officers often come to check on the square by the river, and if they don't say anything, then it's probably nothing.

"One costs five yuan, three cost ten yuan."

Amazing mathematical logic.

Of course, Chen Ming knew this was a promotional tactic.

I bought three.

Chen Ming handed one of them to the landlady. She puffed out her cheeks, seemingly a little dissatisfied, but didn't say anything, just looked at the Kongming lantern in her hand.

Lucifer also has one, which is light red.

All three are red, which is considered auspicious.

Chen Ming looked at the instructions and then gradually constructed the framework. It wasn't actually that difficult; it was just about setting it up and then putting... pine resin underneath as fuel. Once it burned brightly, it could fly.

Lucifer was the first to create it; it was much simpler than any array construction.

Chen Ming also succeeded later.

The landlady broke one, so Chen Ming bought her a new one. Seeing her somewhat dejected look, he smiled and said—

"It's okay, keep going. If you mess it up, just buy more. If it keeps messing up, I'll just buy the whole stall."

The stall owner was very excited.

The landlady said irritably—

"I'm not that stupid. See, it's done!"

Before releasing the bird, Chen Ming said—

"You can write your wishes on Kongming lanterns, wishing lanterns. What do you want to write on them?"

Lucifer smiled and said—

"nothing."

I'm not telling you.

The landlady also wanted to keep it a secret.

He smiled and said—

"That's true, it won't work if you say it out loud."

He wrote on the Kongming lantern that he hoped everyone could be happy, not just the girls, but also their parents.

The landlady muttered to herself, pen in hand—

"You must keep your promise. I can do it once I'm an adult..."

Lucifer, however, had already set free, and it seemed she hadn't picked up a pen either. Because for her, she was already so happy, she didn't need anything more.

She looked at him and gave him a gentle smile.

Chapter 208 The daughter-in-law wants to impress her mother-in-law

Afu is always busy, especially after arriving at her husband's family home. As soon as she enters the door, she follows her mother and sister to the kitchen to help.

Watching Afu's efficient movements, the mother realized that Afu was a girl who often helped with chores around the house, and couldn't help but marvel at her son's good fortune.

Where did he find so many beautiful, virtuous, and sensible girls?

Most girls are lucky if they have even one of these qualities. My mom has thought about things like the TV dramas where she might have a mother-in-law/daughter-in-law war...

"Mom, should this be sliced?"

"Mom, be careful of the hot oil."

"Mom, are you tired? Leave it to me."

……

She calls her "Mom" all the time, and she's efficient and capable—she's the perfect wife. A-Fu's first impression of her mother is already very positive.

She's a very traditional and sensible girl.

That's definitely more of a classic approach.

She was quick and efficient, and gradually she and Xiaoxiao took over all the work.

Chen Xiao looked at his mother and said—

"Mom, you've been busy for a long time. Go outside and take a break."

It's actually a bit of a hindrance.

Of course, Chen Xiao didn't say this aloud, as it would be too outrageous.

And if I told her, my mother would probably "retaliate."

The mother glanced at her daughter, her lips twitching slightly. Just as her daughter-in-law wanted to impress her, she also wanted to impress her daughter-in-law.

That's why she specifically wanted to cook for herself today.

However, I have indeed become a bit rusty. I can still cook home-style dishes, but it takes a lot of time to cook too many delicious dishes at once.

She pursed her lips, looked at her two virtuous future daughters-in-law, and said helplessly—

"Okay, I'll go outside and rest for a bit."

Although his tone was somewhat dissatisfied, he was actually very happy. He was relieved that his son had met such a good person and could rest assured about his future.

I went outside...

Cerberus is now in her normal white-haired, red-eyed girl form, with her tail and ears retracted. She looks at Dong Yi with some unease, glancing around nervously.

Tilting his head, he asked—

"what are you doing?"

"Hmm... I'm looking for a broom."

"Why are you looking for a broom?"

"Let's do some cleaning."

Dong Yi scratched his head, his brown eyes scanning the surroundings. The house had three bedrooms and a living room, about 100 square meters, and was quite ordinary.

Coffee table, sofa, television.

There's also a computer in the living room, used for work, but actually mostly used by Chen Ming's dad for playing chess.

Dongyi wanted to make a good impression. Although she had already confirmed her relationship with Chen Ming, she couldn't act like a terrible daughter-in-law who couldn't do anything.

Although he is indeed a complete slacker at home, he still needs to have some emotional intelligence.

It's not difficult for them to volunteer to wash the dishes after dinner, but doing so makes people think that the child is very polite and sensible.

why not?

Even superficial efforts are necessary.

Only a stupid dog wouldn't understand anything. As soon as it arrived, it sat down, excitedly picked up the food on the table, and started eating.

Miss Angel was actually here too, sitting on the sofa next to Cerberus, staring blankly at the scene.

The mother looked at the two girls in the living room (Angel invisible), both of whom were charming and cute. Although they were not the virtuous type, they were still innocent and adorable.

I don't have many other thoughts on my mind.

She's a good girl no matter where you put her; she makes people feel good just by looking at her.

She walked up behind Cerberus and looked at his long, white hair.

Although it's white, it has a very natural feel. I heard that this is the hair and eye color of her and Lucifer's hometown, and it does look very beautiful.

I have a feeling that I want to touch it.

Then she reached out and touched it.

"Hmm? Mom."

Cerberus, of course, noticed his mother approaching. He turned his head, looked at her with his red eyes, blinked, and then comfortably narrowed his eyes slightly.

"hey-hey……"

That happy smile was so infectious that it made Mom feel happy too.

"Just like a little puppy..."

The mother couldn't help but think that this feeling of closeness was just like the dog they used to have back in their hometown.

When Dongyi saw his mother coming over, he quickly sat up straight, his brown eyes looking somewhat restrained, unsure of where to look.

Mom smiled and said—

"Don't be so nervous, just make yourself at home... no, this is your home, do whatever you want. Hmm... would you like some tea? I'll make you some."

"I'll do it."

Dongyi went to make tea, warming the teacups several times with water, and then brewing the tea step by step.

Her mother looked at her with some surprise.

Such complicated steps...

She originally just planned to make some tea for everyone, but Dongyi's attitude... it seems like he's heading in the direction of tea tasting.

Mom glanced at the cheap tea leaves on the table...

It seems unnecessary to go to such lengths, doesn't it?

But she didn't say anything, just smiled and watched her daughter-in-law's performance. At times like this, it was best to let her daughter-in-law show her what she was capable of; she wouldn't be so tactless as to interrupt.

This incident might become fodder for teasing Dongyi in the future, a thought that some cunning mothers kept in mind.
