Dragon and Dessert House

Finding griffin feathers across domains, and then changing the feathers into pens consumed a lot of Fife's magic power.

Putting down the box, Fafna sat on a chair to rest.I only planned to take a nap for a while, but I didn't expect that when it was dawn, there was a "dong dong" sound outside the door.

I haven't slept this soundly in a long time.

Faffna muttered to himself, and opened the door, never expecting that Hill was standing in front of the door stiffly.To Fife's surprise, Hill was holding a basket of brightly colored tomatoes.

"Good morning, Hill."

Fife knelt down and touched Hill's head, Hill raised the small basket in his hand, his eyes were full of joy that was about to move.

These baby tomatoes are a backyard vegetable and the sweetest ones are freshly picked in the morning.

Looking at those sparkling eyes, Fife had no way to refuse Hill's invitation, so he ate two small tomatoes. "Well, it's delicious."

After being praised, Hill rarely showed a sweet smile.

"Did you go to help Jianuo with farm work early in the morning?" Fafna picked up Hill and walked downstairs, Hill nodded obediently, and when Fafna put him down, he ran to the kitchen with the small tomato basket in his arms.

"Good morning, master."

Jano brought out a large plate of freshly made sandwiches, followed by Hill, who raised a large plate of vegetable salad with cherry tomatoes over his head and placed it on the bar.After finishing his work, Hill ran to sit on the high stool next to Fife, and waited for Jano to put the sandwich on the plate in front of him.

I feel that I have adapted to life here very quickly.

Fife observed Jianuo's expression carefully, and he was not bored. He seemed to be used to having an extra small oil bottle at home, and instead used it with ease, asking Hill to help with the morning picking work.

In a few days, Hill will be able to fully integrate into life here.

Fafna began to think about deeper matters.

As soon as his thoughts drifted away, someone pulled his sleeve. Fifena turned his head to look, and saw Hill raised his pink face in doubt, wondering why Fifena didn't eat.

"Sill, come to my room after dinner."

Fife touched Hill's head, Hill's radiant eyes were full of brilliance, and he nodded.

Jianuo looked at the two silently, feeling dissatisfied with being ignored.In the next second, he threw this thought to the back of his head and poured hot milk into the cup.

After breakfast, Hill followed Fafna to the room.

Fafnah prepared a pen and paper and asked Hill to sit at the table.The pen is a charcoal pencil for drawing, the quill pen that was just made, and Fafna intends to give it to Hill as a gift after he becomes proficient in writing.

Hill held the charcoal pencil full of doubts, and stared blankly at Fafna.

Fafnir said, "Try to write something, Hill."

Hill understood Fafna's words, but did not act for a long time.

"Hill?" Vaguely felt that Hill's appearance was a bit strange, Fav lowered his head to look at Hill's side face, and soon found that he was a little at a loss and panicked, "Hill, can it be that you...can't write? "

Hill shrank slightly, and the charcoal pen fell on the paper, drawing a word-like symbol crookedly.

Faffna looked at the "word" for a while before realizing that Hill might be writing his own name.It's just that my memory is too vague, and I can only draw a rough shape, so this kind of symbol with unknown meaning appears.

... I was too negligent.

Faffna felt that because of the quill, he became a little floating, and he couldn't think from Hill's perspective.If this matter of not being able to write is exposed, Hill will inevitably be hit... After all, Hill is a child with strong self-esteem.

However, it was too late to repent. Before Hill let go of the charcoal pencil, Fafnah wrapped his palm around his little hand, and led him to write Hill's name on the paper stroke by stroke, "Look , did you do it?"

Hill looked at his name on the paper, his eyes widened.

At this moment, Hill was both surprised and moved.For him, the words in front of him seemed to be a kind of magic - Fafnir gave the name "Hill" real life.

Did not want to leave Fafnir.

The little Hill prayed secretly, and the hand holding the charcoal pencil unconsciously tightened.

"Do you want me to teach you how to write?" Favna found that Hill in his arms was no longer flustered just now, but more determined. Although he had doubts in his heart, he still accepted it silently.As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Hill became more energetic, held Fafnir's hand instead, and nodded excitedly.

Great.

Seeing that Hill became more energetic, Fafena was slightly relieved.

Hill lay prone on the table, shaking his legs, and followed Fafner's hand to learn to write his name stroke by stroke.Fafnir taught Hill how to write his name, but he was worried that Hill could understand it.

Fortunately, Hill is smart, even if he doesn't understand the meaning of the combination of characters, he can still write the words out like a gourd.

Remembering his name by memorizing patterns, Hill has taken a small step on the road to learning characters.

"Let me teach you some more words that you can use in daily life." While thinking, Fife wrote down with charcoal pencils that needed to be taught to Hill, such as "thank you", "hello", "I'm hungry" and other daily expressions. word.

From morning to afternoon, the teaching went smoothly, but Hill could only rely on memorizing shapes to write, and he could memorize not many words.

"Well, it's almost ready." Favna looked at the results of Hill's practice and was very satisfied.

Teaching needs to be gradual, teaching Hill all at once will bring a burden to Hill.Fifena secretly assigned the listed words to the next lecture.

Hearing that the course might be over, Hill tugged at Fafnir's sleeve with anxiety.

Fafnir looked up, "Hill?"

Hill tugged again, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Are you tired? Or do you want to go out to play?" Children are playful by nature, and Fafena thinks that Hill is no exception, but he never asks for it.

Hill shook his head continuously, still staring at Fafnir with burning eyes.

Fife was in trouble at once.

Hill was a little anxious, and climbed onto Fafena from the stool, which really surprised him, "Hill, why did you suddenly..."

Hill hugged Fafna tightly, trying to convey something.

Fife had a faint premonition in his heart, so he gently hugged Hill into his arms.The gentle movement also relieved Hill's tension, and he gradually relaxed.

"Sill, do you want to write my name?"

Hill's eyes lit up, he nodded happily, and rubbed Fafna coquettishly.

After clearing the clouds and seeing the sun, Fife's heart was warm, and he carefully carried Hill back to the stool, holding his little hand and preparing to write his name.

Ke Kano's call interrupted Fafna's movements.

"Master, I have a commission."

Fafnah had to let go of Hill's hand and said, "I'm sorry, Hill. I still have work, so I'll leave it to you next time."

Hill's expectations suddenly fell to the bottom.

【goodbye】

Hill used a charcoal pencil to write the correct word crookedly, and held it up to his face.

Somewhere soft in Fife's heart seemed to be poked in by Hill, turning on a switch, and his heart itched.Fife rubbed Hill's little head, went downstairs to answer the phone, and left the house for the first time feeling a little bit reluctant.

When Hill went downstairs holding the paper, Fafner had already left, and he was standing alone in the living room listlessly.

"How long are you going to stand?"

Jianuo didn't know when to appear from the back door, Hill was bewildered by the yelling, and looked back at Jianuo embarrassingly. "If you have time to be in a daze, come to the kitchen to help." Jia Nuo walked to the kitchen with a basket. Hearing this, Hill immediately followed actively.

No complaints, not too bad.Jianuo carried the stool for Hill, rolled up his sleeves and got ready to start working.

As soon as the basket was opened, what appeared was not the familiar vegetables in the backyard, but a piece of fresh and flexible rib meat.For the past two days, the dinners that Jianuo prepared were bread or baked rice, served with thick creamy mushroom soup, borscht and vegetable salad.

The diet was nutritious, and Hill loved it.

But like now, suddenly taking out such luxurious and rich ingredients still made Hill suffocate.

"Don't stand still, wash your hands and smash them." Jianuo put a small handful of lemongrass and a large piece of ginger in front of Hill, and handed him a small wooden roller.After washing his hands, Hill took the wooden roller and rolled the lemon tea stick, looking at Jianuo curiously.

Jianuo placed a large piece of ribs on the backing board, and the long kitchen knife cut across the ribs without stopping at the sharp edge.Afterwards, Jianuo pressed the kitchen knife to the incision of the ribs and cut the ribs in half.

The stove has been lit, and three tablespoons of honey are put into the pot, plus the broth, soy sauce, and sugar that were boiled and stored yesterday.Hill handed the pounded ginger and lemon tea to Jianuo at the right time, and put them into the pot together.

Gradually bring the pot to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and get a slightly thick sauce, then strain out the ginger and lemongrass.

Put two large pieces of rib meat on the baking tray, pour the cooked sauce over it, spread it evenly with a spoon, and sprinkle with pepper and salt.When ready, the meat is sent to the oven.

While Jianuo was grilling the ribs, Hill began to skillfully cut various fruits and vegetables into appropriate sizes with a small knife, and put them into large bowls.

The making of vegetable salad was learned by Xier Jianuo after doing it once.The knife was given by Jianuo. It is small and not easy to hurt your hands. With Jianuo himself as the supervisor, Hill can use it with confidence.

The ribs need to be taken out of the oven and re-poured with the sauce in the middle of the roasting. It took about an hour, and the ribs gradually separated from the flesh and then came out of the oven.

The warm aroma immediately filled the kitchen after roasting, and the strong smell of the sauce did not overwhelm the aroma of the barbecue itself, creating a strong aroma full of temptation.Jianuo cut off a piece of rib meat, and the piece of meat was easily separated from the bone, revealing the fat cut surface.

After trying a bite, the meat is fat but not greasy, with a lingering fragrance in the mouth, and the taste is just right.

Jianuo smiled in satisfaction, while Hill watched, his saliva almost dripping onto the table.

"I can only try one bite." Seeing the child obsessed but not daring to go forward, Jia Nuo was secretly happy.Cut off a small piece and brought it to Hill's mouth.Hill did not hesitate to eat the piece of barbecued meat, his tender face was almost flushed by the surprise of his taste buds.

"Finish the final steps."

Jianuo took out the prunes powder from the jar and evenly sprinkled it on the ribs.

Hill took the dishes and set them on the bar table, while Jianuo was busy dividing and arranging the dishes in the kitchen.After a while of busy work, a lot of time passed in a blink of an eye.

"smell good."

The door was pushed open, and Fife, who had gone out, returned in an elegant black trench coat.Hill heard the reputation and looked over, put down the plate in his hand in the next second, turned around and ran upstairs.

Fafnah, who was ignored, stood there, stunned for a moment.
