People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's alright... Reading is just something I do when I have time and a book is around. I read it casually. I don't have any particular purpose or other thoughts. In the past, I didn't have much else to do. I would just wander around and read books."

"So, honey, have we enriched your life, or have we made it much more monotonous?"

"How to say?"

"Look, when we're not here, you said you usually just hang out and read, right? But now that we're here, you haven't had time to pursue many of your hobbies. So what do you mean by that?"

Bai Yu nodded and said, "I haven't thought about that question, but it's not exactly uneventful. It's impossible to stick to many hobbies forever. As time goes by, many things will gradually be put on hold until they become just occasional pastimes."

Shinobu thought for a moment and said, "That's not wrong... However, I probably wouldn't do that when it comes to kendo."

"Not necessarily. You may always love kendo and hold it in high regard, but... Houki, you may have your own family in the future, and things like cooking, your children's education, and other things may gradually take over your life."

"People have different identities at different times. You are still a student now, and even after three or four years, you may still be a college student. Your life is nothing more than studying and entertainment. These two things will occupy almost 100% of your life."

"However, after you lose your student status, your life or work will bring you new circles, new knowledge, new directions for contact, and even things that you were not interested in before or had never heard of will suddenly become an indispensable part of your life."

Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This also answers Lucy and the others' question earlier. There's nothing mundane about it. It's just that I'm not all alone now, so there are things I should do and have to do in my current position. It's just that I'm happy to do these things and have enough enthusiasm for them."

Everyone nodded, while Yoshikawa Yuki and the other girls clapped in a daze. As expected of their husband, he spoke with great depth. More importantly, they were subtly flirted with again. What more could they ask for now than just an extra identity? But Bai Yu expressed his willingness. In a sense, such sweet words were very touching.

Fujiwara no Mokou glanced at Shiraha and said softly, "Mr. Shiraha, you are indeed very special."

"I'm just an ordinary store manager. Everyone is special except for themselves."

"Manager Baiyu, you're no ordinary person... But, Manager Baiyu, when will you come again?"

"Hmm? Ms. Fujiwara, is there something you need?"

Fujiwara no Mokou nodded and said, "I guess so. Keine seems to really want to talk to you. Besides, you'll probably be going to Eientei too, so you can pass by where we are."

"When Murasaki took me to Eientei before, I felt that the person who lived in that bamboo forest must be very aloof, but not necessarily someone who likes quiet. Now it seems that Ms. Fujiwara was right."

Fujiwara no Mokou paused for a moment and said, "Me? I prefer things to be quieter."

"It's not that I like quiet, it's just that I don't feel there's a reason to talk... Besides, Ms. Fujiwara isn't as aloof as she seems, otherwise you wouldn't have asked this question at the last banquet."

"It's better to keep things quiet."

Yukari Yakumo said with a smile, "Oh my, Yuuka thought the same thing back then, didn't she?"

Kazami Yuuka glanced at Yakumo Yukari indifferently, but she still had to admit that Yakumo Yukari was right. Fujiwara no Mokou didn't dislike chatting or being in a lively atmosphere; rather, she was somewhat afraid of crowds and of making friends who interested her.

It's a peculiar feeling of loneliness... In other words, she simply hasn't met the right person, hasn't encountered the right environment...

Chapter Twenty-Three: Kirisu Mafuyu's Mission, Fujiwara no Mokou's Answer (Please Subscribe~)

That night was strangely quiet. It seemed like everyone who was supposed to come was waiting for the summer vacation to truly end before they arrived. Reimu and the others kept talking about summer vacation, and Erina and the others were all unusually energetic, showing no signs of fatigue.

Eirin Yagokoro said with some concern, "Princess, aren't you sleepy? It's already past midnight. You can rest for a few more hours."

"Yonglin-neechan, don't worry about me. I'm not sleepy at all. I feel very energetic. Reisen-neechan, you can even make mochi? That requires a lot of strength!"

"Hey...it's alright! Although I'm not very capable, I'm not exactly weak either! Little princess, if you want some, just let me know and I'll prepare it for you!"

"Okay! It must be delicious... Hmm? Yonglin-neechan, what's wrong?"

Yagokoro Eirin coughed lightly and said, "Little princess, are you planning to come back with us during the day to meet people and get familiar with the environment, or would you like to wander around here? Either way is fine, since it's all your own home."

After thinking for a moment, Kaguya tilted her head and said, "Then... can Fujiwara-neechan come?"

Fujiwara no Mokou paused for a moment, about to speak, when she heard Houraisan Kaguya casually say, "Of course! After all, Mokou is an old acquaintance, and she likes you a lot, so she'll definitely come. She might even bring Keine-sensei."

"Teacher Keine? She seems to be a very nice older sister, right, Fujiwara-neechan?"

Fujiwara no Mokou glanced at Houraisan Kaguya, who simply smiled and said nothing more. Fujiwara no Mokou breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Kaguya, whose face was full of expectation and whose eyes were pure and innocent.

"Yes, she's a very nice person, she'll be happy to meet you."

"Hmm! Yonglin-neechan, when are we going back?"

"Let's go back after breakfast, because we still need to tidy up and arrange some things for you, little princess, so we should eat early, my husband..."

Bai Yu sighed and said, "Yonglin, although thinking things through is always one of your strengths, just like Kaguya said, looking too far ahead makes it hard to see what's in front of you."

"Wha...what do you mean? Husband...did I say something wrong?"

"You mean, could we prepare some breakfast for you in advance?"

"Um..."

"Yonglin, can you check who isn't upstairs right now?"

Eirin Yagokoro paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "I didn't realize it. I almost forgot that all the sisters in the family are here except for Hisako and the others. But, don't you feel uncomfortable eating breakfast so early?"

Yoshikawa Yuki said with a smile, "Nagarin-nee, you don't need to worry. It's not that we don't need to worry about our family, but we're also frequent visitors who stay up late. It's uncomfortable to eat breakfast after staying up late because we're tired and sleepy, but nobody does that."

Tsunade poked Yoshikawa Yuki's head and said irritably, "Now I know why your aunt is so strict with you. Do you think staying up late is a good habit? Especially for girls, it can easily cause menstrual irregularities, okay?"

"Tsunade-nee...it's not like she stays up all night every day..."

"You still dare to say that?"

"I'm not talking about it anymore! I'm not talking about it anymore! Hmm? Aoi, what are you guys researching over there?"

Aoi Hinami waved but didn't speak. Yuki Yoshikawa leaned closer, glanced at it, and said with a strange look, "This is... Aoi, what are you planning to do?"

"It's quite simple, but I don't know the specifics. Asuna, what do you think?"

"I think... if we had plenty of time, it would be fine, but we don't have that much time..."

"That's right, what else can we do? And shouldn't this fall on Kirisu-sensei's shoulders?"

"How do you know it?"

Nanami Fukami whispered, "I overheard it when I passed by the principal's office earlier. It seems that no teacher has a solution. But you know Kirisu-sensei's personality. He won't give up on his students. Even if they switch to humanities or sciences, he won't completely give up."

"Yes, so..."

"I don't know. I can't really eavesdrop, but the other teachers couldn't do anything about it, so they called Kirisu-sensei over. They probably want to put Kirisu-sensei in charge. I just don't know what Kirisu-sensei will do."

Yoshikawa Yuki said irritably, "But what does this have to do with us? Kirisu-sensei doesn't even teach our class, which is why I asked Aoi, what are you planning to do? You're not really planning to do something, are you?"

Aoi Hinami said irritably, "Give me a break. One Kirisu-sensei definitely can't teach everyone, so someone needs to help. We can't count on the school teachers, so we can only rely on the students, and good students at that. Think about it, Katagiri only has so many good students."

“They’re all family, and we’re in the same grade as them, so Xiao Hong and Hai Meng definitely won’t be looking for us. That leaves us and Sister Hong Xu, but it’s unlikely that Sister Hong Xu will be looking for us. The most likely candidate is us.”

"That makes a lot of sense! But you're just guessing, right..."

Aoi Hinami sighed and said, "We weren't going to talk about this, but just before midnight, Kirisu-sensei sent an email to Asuna's email address. She said she would reply tomorrow, but we were both there, so we replied directly. As they were chatting, Kirisu-sensei said that he would go to her office to see her after the start of the semester."

"Who's going to look for her? Asuna, perhaps?"

"Yes, it's Asuna, but Asuna is in our class and she's the class president. We can just ask her. That's why we thought of this."

Yoshikawa Yuki scratched her head and said, "That's very possible... So, Asuna, if that's really the case, what do you plan to do?"

After thinking for a moment, Aoi Hinami said, "If that's really the case, we might have helped in the past, but now the wedding date is very close, and we still have to study and have a lot of things to do, so we really need to think about it. We can help, but we don't have much time right now."

"That's right, uh... Sister Lucy, what's with those expressions...?"

"Stop talking nonsense. What are you muttering about for so long? Just say what's wrong. If you can't solve it, the family can."

"Um...it has nothing to do with us, at least not for now."

"Oh? Tell me."

Chapter Twenty-Four: Kirisu Mafuyu, the Invited Sisters (Please Subscribe~)

Because of Lucifer's insistence, Aoi and the others had no choice but to explain the situation, but after they did, it seemed to cause a lot of other problems.

Asuna sighed and said, "Let me explain. Lucy, you should know that we are among the best students in Katagiri, but there are also many students in Katagiri who don't do well in school."

"Five of them are very famous; they are quintuplets, they are..."

"Five babies?!"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Kaguya Houraisan clicked her tongue and said, "Amazing, truly amazing. Their mother is really something else. Five babies, indeed! Eirin would be laughing in her sleep if she had one, but five babies? I can't even imagine..."

Lucifer and the others nodded. They were joking; none of them had any. Whether it was Yuuko Ichihara, Remilia, or even Zdrada and Marina, they were all incredibly excited to find out they had a daughter. Five quintuplets—they'd probably faint from excitement.

After all, either their family members are not ordinary people, or because Yonglin and the others are there, they have no worries about any difficult childbirth or miscarriage.

Asuna and the other girls blushed. Although they were married, they were still innocent girls. Even though they had talked about these things before, they still felt shy.

Kazami Yuuka said softly, "Don't interrupt, let Asuna finish. Asuna, please continue."

"Oh...and then, those quintuplets are quite famous, not only because they're pretty and have great figures, but also because they had bad grades. They weren't originally from Katagiri; they were students at Shuchiin Academy, but because their grades were so bad and the academic pressure was too much, they transferred to Katagiri."

Coco clicked her tongue and said, "How bad must one be to become famous for being a bad student? But she must be very beautiful. Her looks must be just as stunning as her academic performance."

Nanami Fukami said with a smile, "Katagiri's school beauty, Benio-nee, Kokoro, Ume, the rest of us, and then the five of them."

Asuna sighed and said, "Although they are bad students, they are not bad students. They are trying hard to study, but their grades just won't improve. They might be good for a while, but then they will slip again."

Gurefia tilted her head and said, "This is probably because they don't know how to learn, or they have a short memory span..."

"I do not know."

"So, what does this have to do with you?"

Aoi Hinami said with some helplessness, "Teachers usually don't give up on their students, and Katagiri is no exception. But even after arranging several tutors for them, it didn't work. I heard from Fukami that... (hundreds of words omitted here) and that's how it is."

Everyone nodded in understanding. Yagokoro Eirin nodded and said, "That's right, it's indeed possible. A teacher can't possibly be responsible for five students in all subjects at the same time, especially five different areas where each has its own strengths... um... would you consider them strengths?"

"There will always be subjects you excel in, so... Pander, what's wrong with you?"

Pandemonica said softly, "If I remember correctly, a teacher moved into the apartment where Xiaoqiong used to live a few months ago, right? It was Katagiri, and if I remember correctly, her name was..."

"Teacher Kirisu?!"

"If I remember correctly, it was her... I even said I was tutoring her in world history... So, that Kirisu-sensei..."

Asuna nodded and said, "That's right, it's the World History teacher... What a coincidence, but it doesn't matter anymore. Sora isn't Katagiri's anymore, and she doesn't live there anymore, so it doesn't really matter."

Zdelada casually tossed the clam shells aside, wiped his hands, and said, "The question is, do you not want to help, or do you not have time to help?"

Nanami Sumina sighed and said, "Actually, Yotsuba is my friend. She's very active in the sports club, and we would definitely help her if we could, but... we don't have that much time..."

After exchanging glances, Zidada and the others casually said, "Have you forgotten that you guys came to the shop to study before?"

"Hmm? Sister Longdan, what you mean is..."

Yuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "Since you're good kids, and not bad at studying, and are really good friends, if you don't want to help, then invite them to the shop. You can learn from each other when you're bored during the day, and if the learning atmosphere is good, you can even help out Sora."

“That’s right. Besides Sora and Sonoko, everyone in the family is a top student and an elite. They can ask me if they don’t understand something. I already told Sora that I would like to invite that Kirisu-sensei to the restaurant for dinner if I have the chance. If I really came to you for this matter, it would be great if you could all come.”

Asuna nodded and said, "In that case... alright then, if you really need our help, we'll do it this way. Kirisu-sensei usually seems very serious, and if we don't let her see it for herself, she'll probably worry about the learning atmosphere."

Chifuyu Orimura nodded and said, "Yes, as a fellow teacher, I really respect Mafuyu Kirisu. She's a responsible and good teacher. If there's a chance, I'd like to get to know her."

"It's true, Chifuyu-nee and Kirisu-sensei are very similar in many ways."

Yuno Gasai nodded and said, "Our homeroom teacher is somewhat similar to Chifuyu-nee, but only in appearance. In reality, she's a very unique teacher."

"Um... it seems like Orimura-sensei is also..."

Chifuyu Orimura glanced indifferently at Tateru Kakeru, who immediately turned his head away. He was joking; even if he went back to school late, he still had to go home. Chifuyu Orimura was genuinely going to smash his head with her handy student guidebook...

Bai Yu paused for a moment before saying, "Four Leaves?"

"Yes, honey, do you know Yotsuba?"

"No, that's not it... but... adding a word to a number... quintuplets... I don't know why, but it reminded me of someone."

"Who?"

"A few months ago, a guest named Nakano Ichika came and said she would bring her sisters if she had the time and opportunity. Something... what's wrong?"

"It's those five!"

"Huh?!" xn
