"Grandma, Grandma, I came to your shop to make something." Anna pushed the door and shouted loudly to her mother-in-law in the room.

"Oh, isn't this little Anna? Go over there and get whatever you want. Just put the money on my table." The mother-in-law looked up at Anna. After giving her instructions, she continued with her sewing work.

"Okay, mother-in-law, Shanks, come on, let's go." Anna pulled Shanks to the place where sales and production were carried out.

The store is filled with all kinds of bead jewelry. There are also all kinds of threads. This is obviously a jewelry making place.

"What is Anna doing here?" Shanks looked around in confusion.

"Hehe, didn't I say that I can't give you those two boxes of wine? So I'm going to give you something else." Anna skillfully picked up a variety of beads and looked at Shanks from top to bottom.

"Oh, really? I'm looking forward to it." Shanks also began to look at the beads carefully.

Anna looked at Shanks and suddenly remembered the time in Shanks' dream when Shanks split the entire wave in half with one knife. Suddenly, she had an idea.

Anna took out a few red and red and blue beads and strung two together, and then took out two skulls, because they were the symbols of pirates. But she was in trouble when choosing the last one, because the bead in the middle was the most important.

Anna walked around the store twice but didn't see the beads she liked. So she wanted to ask her mother-in-law if she had any special beads.

"Grandma, Grandma, I have no place to find the bead in the middle. Can you see if there are any other beads?" Anna asked her grandma who was sewing.

"Little Anna, take a look at the beads in the middle. These are what they brought back from fishing." The mother-in-law took out a box from under the counter. The box was filled with all kinds of colorful jewels or crystals.

"Wow, mother-in-law, you actually have such a collection. Why didn't you tell me before?" Anna asked her mother-in-law coquettishly while looking at the box full of jewelry.

"You always made it for fun before and never brought it with you. How could I let you use such a precious thing?" The mother-in-law looked at Anna lovingly.

"Hey, why did grandma let me use it today?"

"Didn't you come here with a young man today? It's obvious that you were going to give it to someone else. Naturally, your mother-in-law would be willing to do so." The mother-in-law glanced at Shanks in the room.

"Mother-in-law, Shanks and I are not in that kind of relationship." Anna knew her mother-in-law had misunderstood and quickly clarified.

"Oh, I understand, I understand. Young people are just shy." The mother-in-law looked like someone who had experienced it.

"Oh, grandma." Anna really didn't know how to explain this to her grandma. If she told her directly that Shanks was a pirate, her grandma would be scared.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Pick one quickly."

Anna was a little dazzled by the dazzling array of gems. Suddenly, Shanks poked his head out from behind her.

"What are you picking?" Shanks' voice almost scared Anna so much that she dropped the gem in her hand to the ground.

"You almost scared me to death, Shanks." Anna patted her heart and put the gem in her hand away safely.

"I'm choosing the main beads for your bracelet, but I don't know which one to choose. However, these two are my favorites." Anna picked up the other two tear-shaped crystals next to her.

These two crystals are both red and blue, and are about the length of a finger joint. They are very suitable to be the main bead in the middle.

Shanks looked at it and suddenly took the other one "Since it's so hard to choose, I'll take this one and use that one."

"Hey, Shanks, what are you going to do with the other one?" Anna ran to the inner room with Shanks, holding the other crystal in her hand.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Shanks, who was working on something but looked very serious, so she decided not to disturb him. Anna had no choice but to finish the bracelet in her hand first.

Well, string all the beads on both sides with thread, and put the red and blue crystal in the middle. Look carefully at the crystals, there is a little yellow between the red and blue. Put two skulls and small beads at the end of the outermost to prevent the knot from slipping off.

Anna stretched and finally finished weaving the bracelet. She looked up and saw that Shanks had not finished yet.

So he went over to it, but Shanks didn't let him look at it and just put it away.

Anna thought to herself, if I’m not allowed to watch it, then I won’t watch it.

"We can go now. I have prepared your gift."

"Okay, let's go." Shanks also stood up and was about to walk out.

"Grandma, goodbye then. I've kept the money for you." Anna said goodbye to her grandma and left the shop.

When the two of them were walking back to the pub, Shanks suddenly slapped his head and said, "Oh, I forgot. Baker asked me to buy cigarettes for him, but he was really busy."

"Really? Indeed, Beckman is preparing for a trip, so do you need me to accompany you?" Yes, that did remind me of how busy Beckman was before the two of them went out.

"It's okay, it's okay. You don't even know which brand Beckman smokes? I can go by myself." Shanks said and ran away.

Anna looked in the direction of Shanks. "Is the tobacco shop there? Yes, but there may be something that he is not convenient to tell me."

Anna shrugged and went back to the tavern. After saying hello to everyone, she went upstairs to deal with the bracelet.

Take out your own homemade essential oil, which is made from the flowers of the wine fruit tree unique to this island. After all, the rope exposed to the wind and sun on the sea will easily break if it is not treated.

And Anna felt that Shanks would like the faint but non-smoky smell of alcohol from the flowers of the wine fruit tree.

Soak the bracelet overnight, and process it again tomorrow morning, so it's ready to give to Shanks before they separate.

After Anna properly put away the container of essential oil that the bracelet was soaked in, she went downstairs again. After looking around, she found that Shanks still hadn't come back, so she ignored him.

"Beckman, the two boxes of wine are already in the warehouse in the back kitchen. Don't forget to take them with you."

Beckman looked down at the little girl and said, "Don't worry, Anna, we won't forget. After all, there will always be someone who remembers things like wine."

Marco came over at this time and said, "Yeah, how could a pirate forget something like wine?"

What Anna was thinking about at this moment was Shanks, because no one could forget him, and he had always wanted to take away the remaining two boxes of wine.
