Succubus' Manor

It was time for meals in a small village with few people in the way. Ferlando's soldiers lit up a fire and poured beans and wheat bran into clay pots to cook together.

"How long will it take?" The soldier squatted next to the clay pot, his eyes staring with hunger.

Another soldier casually put hay in his mouth and chewed on the grass roots. This thing can't satisfy his hunger, but there is always something to chew on in his mouth, which can always give himself a little comfort.

The soldiers with grass in their mouths looked into the distance. They took down a village. The original people in the village fled to death, but it didn't make their life better. The food was the food stored by the people in the village, and there wasn't much in the first place. Well, there are so many of them, the general asked them to eat less, but they are all middle-aged men, and they can't eat for two days if they save on food.

"It's better in Flanders." The soldier swallowed. "At home, you can always find something to eat."

The person next to him said: "The general will figure out a way."

A group of people guarded the pots, all swallowing saliva non-stop.

The cooked beans can also be eaten as a meal, which can barely fill the stomach.

"I want to go home..." the soldier said dejectedly, "I've been here for so long, I want to go back."

"Don't talk about that." Another person quickly shouted, "Do you want to be punished?"

The soldier kept his mouth shut.

They all want to go back, but dare not say so.

This is not their home, and they don't know the language of the Kentis. After the collapse of the Holy House, no one sent them food and weapons.

In the past, the weapon could be replaced if it was damaged, but now that the weapon is broken, you can only continue to move forward with the broken weapon.

The soldiers are all Flanders' civilians, who originally lived at the bottom of Flanders. They want to change their appearance through this war, give their families a better life, or make military exploits, so that they can also be like the elders in the future. Live a life of luxury.

They didn't understand why there was a war, they only knew that fighting should be good for Flando.

Not far away, the general stood on a small slope. He pursed his lips and looked up at the sky. The soldier beside him said, "General, the food here is almost finished."

The general frowned, with a sad expression: "Look at the nearby villages."

Xiaobing: "General, with so many of us, even if we conquer another village, it won't be better than it is now. Why don't we choose one..."

The little soldier continued: "Winter will soon be here. We need food and warm clothes. If the soldiers are frozen, we will not be able to fulfill the king's order."

Their Wang Mingming is almost 50 years old, but he is still as competitive as a young man.

Never thought of a way to make the people rich. Flando has been poor for so many years. The previous kings, like this one, believed that war would make the country stronger and richer.

However, the reality is that more and more people are getting poorer.

The general gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go fight a town."

This time they chose a smaller town. The soldiers were hungry, and the people in front shouted at them: "Shoot this down! You will be full!"

Before the snow fell, they finally had some security. The town was bigger than the village, and there was more food. The big households in the town stocked up a lot of food, and the soldiers ate a few solid meals.

But the town is still not enough for them to consume.

After all, the merchants stopped coming, and when the stored food was exhausted, there would be no more.

They took another small town.

News of successive victories also reached the ears of King Flando.

"Your Majesty, this is good news!" The courtiers were also very happy!

Their army is invincible, doesn't this prove that their choice is correct?

The king is also happy - he has been fighting all his life, and now he is too old to lead soldiers, but he still has great enthusiasm for fighting. After his army went out, he did not disappoint him. He has such a strong team. Lando's prosperity is just around the corner!

"Kentis is in a mess now, it's our chance!" the minister excitedly said.

They have long coveted the land of Kentis!No matter how rich Dorsey and Kasha are, their land is still small. Although Flando is big, more than half of the land is uninhabitable.

Unlike Kentis, although it is not as fertile and rich in minerals as Doshi and Kaza, its land is not only large, it is also livable, and the weather is distinct throughout the year. Outside of the region, there is no other place that is bad. There is also a river that runs through the entire country, with plains and valleys. Every king of Ferlando is eager to try Kentis.

If the current king can realize the wish of every previous king, then his name will be engraved in history forever.

"I heard that the Holy House fell, and now the nobles from all over the place are besieging those clergy and believers. Many people have died, and the chaos is beyond control." Frando's minister was flushed, and his gums were exposed when he smiled. .

"Your Majesty! This is our chance!"

"This is the best opportunity, we must not let it go!"

The king of Ferlando also greatly increased his confidence, and he also felt that this matter was his chance to make his name last forever.

He even felt that he might be able to reunite the four countries like Emperor Austin.

"Let them attack the holy city of Kentis!" The king excitedly said, "Our soldiers can fight ten! They are stronger and more powerful than the cowards of Kentis. Why do the Kentis occupy such a good land?"

The ministers were dumbfounded again at this time: "Your Majesty, attack the holy city?"

"There are at least [-] soldiers in the holy city, and we only have [-]."

The king laughed loudly: "There will be another conscription in the country! There will be another levying for food, and the whole country will attack Kentis. I don't believe that we, Frando, can't defeat Kentis!"

The ministers persuaded him several times, but the king still bit him to death and did not let go.

The king was getting old, so it was not right to say that he was stupid, but he felt the call of the god of death, so he must do a big thing before the god of death came.

For this, everyone or something else has to make concessions.

Moreover, the king also sincerely believed that his 3 men could fight more than 10 men, and they were all Ferlando's fighters, brave and invincible fighters who feared no death.

After the general received the letter from the capital, he was completely dumbfounded.

The letter he sent did not sell badly because he was afraid of being punished by the king. He was outside, but his family members were still in the capital.

So he dared not report worries, only good news.

He went down the mountain because he couldn't let the soldiers have nothing to do, and it must not be said that he was shot down the mountain.

He was able to win the villages and small towns because he was smart and good at fighting, and his soldiers were brave and strong. It must not be said that the villages and small towns had only civilians and no soldiers.

So after receiving the letter, he was completely speechless.

beat?He was not confident, and the group of people who drove them down the mountain left a shadow in his heart.

Do not hit?Procrastinating?He didn't lead the army for a long time, but his father was also a general. He knew that the longer the delay, the more timid the soldiers would be in a foreign country, and they would not dare to continue fighting.

He did not dare to bring his soldiers back home.

The general was so worried that a lot of his hair turned gray overnight.

Still the little soldier said: "My lord, don't worry, those people on the mountain should not belong to the royal family."

The general was taken aback: "Why do you say that?"

Xiao Bing: "If they are members of the royal family, why didn't they kill us all?"

The general thought for a while, and asked in a daze, "Isn't it because we run fast?"

It was also the first time he knew that they could escape so fast, which could probably be regarded as an advantage?

Xiao Bing said patiently: "They didn't kill any of us from the beginning to the end, and some of those who were cut were not repaired. Isn't it that they don't want to kill us? Why don't they want to kill us?"

The general was angry: "I am the general and you are the general? What do you have to say that you can't finish at once? Why don't you ask me?"

Xiaobing: "..."

He could only continue to say: "We only killed less than 100 people. According to the situation at the time, how could we only die so little? Their purpose was to force us down the mountain."

"So I think they hope that we can create trouble for Kentis. Even if we go to attack the holy city now, they will never stop us, and maybe they will send people to find us and cooperate with us."

The general was confused by what was said, and his mind was muddled, but he still understood the general meaning of the little soldier, curled his lips and said: "Then what benefits can they get? With so many soldiers, it is impossible to get Kentis." Do you fight by yourself? If we cooperate with them, we will definitely..."

The little soldier interrupted him: "My lord! They have no backup!"

The general was shocked.

Xiao Bing continued: "No matter what they want to do, at least they don't have the same heart with the royal family. They want to use us, and we can use them in turn."

"Behind us is the whole of Flando, and Kentis is falling apart. My lord, I think we can fight."

The general didn't speak, he seemed to be deep in thought, but his mind was already empty.

He felt that he could understand every word Xiaobing said, but the combination made him confused.

Little soldier: "My lord! The people of Kentis are fighting among themselves! And behind us is Flando! His Majesty the King is recruiting soldiers and food. As long as we attack the Holy City, His Majesty will definitely give us more soldiers and food."

The general asked in a daze, "What if we don't fight?"

Xiaobing smiled bitterly: "My lord, can we go back?"

The general shuddered.

He can't go back, he will definitely be executed if he goes back, his wife can remarry, but the child will definitely become a slave.

He can only obey the king's orders.

Even if he knew it, this order might lead him to his thoughts.

----

Chi Yan also just learned that Flando's soldiers had conquered several cities and forced the local civilians to become slaves—slaves dedicated to fighting, that is, cannon fodder. When the two sides fought, they would drive the civilians to rush over first. Without weapons or physical strength, they would grab those in front of them and beg their fellow Kentis "enemies" to save them.

They don't talk about morality, and they don't think about how to rule after the battle. They just rob people and food, and deter the nearby nobles and lords by the way.

So they really haven't lost a single battle for such a long time.

Sometimes "ruthless" is also a sharp weapon.

Some cities even opened their doors and surrendered, giving them food and clothing, as well as wine and beauties.

Even if they haven't hit the holy city, the holy city is starting to panic.

No one wants to be surrounded by a hungry wolf.

The queen did not give an order, and the guards in the city gradually disappeared, and the merchants raised the price of food again—there was no shortage of food, and the autumn harvest was enough to feed the whole city, and the harvest would last until next year. But the merchants would rather the grain become old grain than sell it at a low price.

Slaves did get cheaper.

The slave owners sold their slaves because they were afraid that if the slaves died, they would not be able to get back their capital.

"Your Majesty!" The maid hurriedly walked in the corridor of the palace, and the servants in the corridor gave way one after another to let the maid pass.

The queen was standing at the window, looking at the direction of Flando's soldiers from the highest point of the castle. Her eyes were full of hatred, and she wished to go back to the past and arrest all the people in the Holy Court and let them suffer torture to death. .

Hanging heads are really cheap for them!

The maid strode up to the queen, then she recovered her breath and said to the queen: "The people below have sent a message that the number of Flanders has increased again."

The queen said angrily: "That group of people... the group of people from the Holy Court! They actually brought in the Flanders! They want to destroy Kentis!"

The holy courtyard seeks skin from the tiger, but she is the one who bears the consequences.

Why doesn't she hate it?

The maid lowered her head: "The lords outside want to borrow troops from you."

The lord's soldiers will not be too many, if something big happens, he can only borrow troops from the royal family.

But the queen was silent for a while, and finally just said: "Let them figure out their own way."

She didn't dare to lend her soldiers. Sitting in her current seat, she knew the importance of military power better than anyone else. Once her soldiers were borrowed, would they still be her soldiers?

Without military power, she is just a woman trapped in the palace. She doesn't want to be like that ancestor who was imprisoned in a corner of the palace and spend the rest of her life in the dark.

Maid: "But those Flanders..."

The queen scolded angrily: "Can't you understand what I said?!"

The maid hissed, and retreated after saluting.

The queen stood still for a while, but she could not think of anything to do, so she had to go to Uncle Benson.

"Uncle, the Flanders are right next to us, which makes me fearful every day and wakes up with nightmares every night. I worry that everything that our ancestors bestowed on us will be ruthlessly plundered by the Flanders, and I can only watch this Everything, Uncle Benson, I can't describe my panic in words, although I am a queen, I am only a daughter who lost her father, a widow who lost her husband, I have several children..." The queen cried to Benson, Her hair was disheveled and her eyes were red from crying.

Benson didn't know his niece well. He went to his territory when the queen was just born, and he couldn't return to the holy city for decades.

He looked at his niece and felt that women are so weak, they are like weak flowers, a little wind and frost can make them wilt, a woman, why should she sit on the throne?

Just because she bleeds royal blood.

If only because of this, then he is more qualified than her.

He is also a member of the royal family, or her elder.

Benson had a loving face, and the old god said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, you are the master of Kentis. As long as you have a word, I believe that countless people will come to the holy city to protect you."

The queen grabbed Benson's hand: "Uncle, they are all unreliable, none of them... don't listen to me! Only you are my true relatives, and I only trust you!"

Benson sighed: "But what can I do? I'm already old, a useless old man."

The queen shook her head: "No! Uncle, if you can help me, I promise to share the kingship with you, and I am willing to give up the throne to you!"

Benson looked surprised: "Give up the throne?"

The queen said firmly: "I can't let Kentis perish in my hands. I don't want to face the reprimand of my ancestors after death. If you want, I can recognize the identity of my daughter. She will be the heir to the throne. Then let her marry your son, my cousin."

Benson didn't quite believe it. He said with a smile, "Your Highness, I'm old and don't have such big ambitions."

The queen confessed eagerly: "I know you don't believe it, uncle, I'm not afraid to tell you that if I had soldiers in my hand, I would definitely not say these things to you, but I don't actually have soldiers in my hand!"

Benson froze.

The queen continued: "I do have [-] soldiers, but these [-] soldiers are just for public speaking, otherwise how could the surrounding nobles listen to me and make me a king?"

"Actually, I only have one or two to less than [-] soldiers, and a few thousand are slaves."

The queen covered her face and began to cry: "Uncle doesn't believe me, and I don't know how to win him. Uncle, I am willing to announce my daughter's identity right now and make an engagement between her and my cousin."

Benson's heart moved, he finally stretched out his hand, patted the Queen's shoulder, and said in an elder tone: "I know it's not easy for you, I will write to Paulie."

So the next day the queen announced the identity of her heir, her second daughter.

This daughter has not appeared in front of people for a long time.

In order to celebrate the appearance of the heir, the nobles began to give gifts again.

The queen asked her trusted businessman to resend these gifts, and then hoarded a large amount of food. The food didn't have to be very good, and old food was fine, as long as it didn't make people eat badly.

Then she quickly announced her daughter's engagement to Paulie Joels.

Received another gift.

When Chi Yan knew about it, he sighed to Kleist: "I still underestimate her."

The queen was unstable. She would never lend out her own soldiers. She used the throne and royal power, and even herself and her daughter as bargaining chips. She bowed her head to Benson, and she lowered her head too much.

She understands the truth that the more you draw, the lower your posture.

Only the final winner can stand and laugh.

She can withstand all blows and insults until she is victorious.

Kleist said with a smile: "If she didn't have this trick, she wouldn't be able to sit in the current seat."

She's a creature of pure power, and she lives for power.

Chi Yan: "I don't know when the Flanders will attack."

It would be best if they came earlier than Benson's army. It would be best if Benson's army attacked while on the road, and Chi Yan would be able to force the queen to abdicate, and then imprison Benson outside the city. Set an ambush and never return Benson's army.

But this is the best prediction, whether the reality will go according to his prediction is another matter.

But what he needs to do now is to crazily brush up the favorability of commoners.

"Is the relief center ready?" Chi Yan asked the servant.

Ryan is now in charge of the slums and the bakery, so Chi Yan raised another servant.

This manservant has been with Chi Yan for a long time. In the past, Kadi was there, and later Ryan was there. He would still say a few words to him, but it was not reused. Now that Chi Yan finally saw him and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, he stepped forward excitedly: "My lord, everything is ready."

Chi Yan smiled at him: "Don't be too nervous, do it well."

The male servant tried his best to express his loyalty: "Even if I die for my lord, I am willing! I will never disappoint my lord's expectations of me!"

Chi Yan waved his hand: "Go ahead, keep an eye on it, don't turn good things into bad things."

The valet retreated respectfully.

Kleist said after the valet left: "He's not as honest as Ryan."

Chi Yan nodded: "It's not good to have too many honest people."

Honest man, whether here or in modern times, is a derogatory neutral term. When hearing the word honest man, people will think of several labels—stupid, stubborn, inflexible, and clumsy.

Ryan's ability is not very good, he is very loyal, so Chi Yan is willing to let him do some jobs with a high fault tolerance rate, but once a certain job has a low fault tolerance rate, Chi Yan will never let him do it.

Kleist: "Would you like to take a break?"

Chi Yan exhaled a long breath, stretched out his hand to Kleist, and said coquettishly, "You carry me back."

Kleist stood up, walked up to Chi Yan, and hugged Chi Yan.

Chi Yan: "..."

Although the princess hugging him is not very acceptable, but this posture of holding a milk baby is not as good as the princess hugging!

Should he be thankful that Kleist didn't carry him back?

Chi Yan laughed in Kleist's arms.

Kleist didn't understand, so: "What are you laughing at?"

Chi Yan raised his head and kissed Kleist's chin: "I'm not laughing at anything, I just find it a little weird."

When he first arrived here, he just wanted to live a better life, and hoped that people would not defecate in the open, because it was dirty and smelly, and hoped that there would be no lice in the territory, and that fewer people would die in the territory.

Before he knew it, he had come to the present.

All the changes are in places he can't notice.

The old butler was left in Stettin by him, Cady was also left in Stettin by him, Dahe went to Otley, Triss was in Sakerd, Albert and Carl are now leading the army in Stettin .

Bendynicke and Mrs. Campbell remained at Stettin, too, and many more, more whose names he remembered and whose names he did not remember.

They were all moving away from him.

Only Kleist is always by his side.

Chi Yan leaned against Kleist's chest contentedly.

He knew that once he sat in that seat, he didn't even have to sit in that seat. Even now, his former friends and people who were close to him would stay away from him.

Kleist is his lover, but also his friend, and Kleist plays all the roles that are close to him.

He loves Kleist, and this love is mixed with too many things, which makes him more and more inseparable from him.

If Kleist disappeared from his life, he didn't know what to do with the years to come.

----

The relief center is located on the edge of the city, where the poorest people are the most. The relief center only provides food. Although it is not much, no matter how full it is, it can keep people alive and not starve to death.

If women and children are homeless, they can still go up to the second floor to huddle and sleep together, but they are not allowed to stay inside during the day, they can only come after dark.

The manservant in charge of the relief center was called Harvey. He came to the relief center full of ambition and made up his mind to make achievements and let the adults see his ability.

Before Cady was there, he couldn't get ahead. Later, Cady left, but Ryan stood on top of him again.

To Cady, he was convinced, but to Ryan—he felt that Ryan was just lucky and had no ability.

And when it comes to loyalty to the lord, he doesn't feel that he is inferior to Ryan.

When Harvey came to the relief center, all the people who worked here were selected from Wright. These people were poor people who had suffered a lot, and they especially cherished the days when they had a stable job. When Harvey arrived, he found that both the ground and the The tables and chairs were neat and clean, spotless, which made him a little satisfied.

Before the shelter officially opened, he spoke with all the staff individually.

"We are here to help them, but you know, our strength is limited." Harvey said to the soft-hearted, "At first they may just want something to eat and a place to sleep, but after a long time they will Take it all for granted and ask to eat more and live better."

"There will be lazy people who want to be like women and live in at night."

Harvey asked the person in front of him: "Do you think he should be allowed in? Do you think they should be fed?"

The other party subconsciously said: "We are a relief agency, we should let the poor..."

Harvey shook his head: "You are also a poor person, but you haven't been waiting for someone to give you alms. You can come here to work because you worked hard enough to let Wright see your efforts."

"If you don't work hard and let Wright keep supporting you, how long do you think Wright will support you?" Harvey continued, "We can't let them take all this for granted."

"Households exist because adults are kind, not because they are pitiful."

Harvey: "There are so many poor and poor people in this world, can you save them? I sympathize with them and pity them, but they must not take advantage of my kindness."

Under Harvey's "persuading and persuasive temptation", all the staff of the almshouse set a firm goal - to let all the people who received the relief understand that the almshouse exists because of the lord of Stettin, not because of these people themselves.

And just like that, the almshouse opened.

At first, no one dared to go in, and people didn't believe that there was a place that could provide free food.

They are afraid that they will be captured and become slaves if they go in. The less people go in, the less people dare to go in.

"Sira!" The girls walked in the wind and snow, shouting the names of the girls in front of them.

The girl named Silla was wearing thin clothes, her lips were purple from the cold, she walked forward regardless, and turned a deaf ear to the cries of her friends.

The companions continued to shout: "Sira! Come back with us!"

Sira turned her head and yelled at them, "No! I can't go to your house!"

The partners looked at her resentfully, trying to comfort her: "My parents said, you can go to my house."

"My mother also agrees that you come to my house."

"Sira, come with us, you will freeze to death."

Sira wiped her nose: "I won't go, you go back."

The partner said helplessly: "Your parents are dead, you..."

Sira screamed, "Go away! Go away!"

The partners looked at each other and lost their temper.

"Sira, you're going to be stubborn!"

"We're going home! Come to us if you figure it out!"

……

Silas just walked forward sullenly.

She didn't want to go to her partner's house, not because she didn't want to live with others, but because her parents were already dead. If she became someone else's daughter, who would know that her parents had come to this world?

Before last year, their family had been living well. Her parents had only one daughter, and they held her in their hands since childhood.

What other girls don't have, she has.

In order to make toys for her that she couldn't buy, Dad even secretly learned carpentry, just to make toys for her.

She likes beautiful skirts, so her mother took apart her own skirts to make skirts for her.

How could she be someone else's child?

After her parents died, her aunt and her family moved into her home. Her cousins ​​robbed her toys, and her cousins ​​robbed her toys. Her room was gone, and she could only live in piles of debris. In her attic, the tip of her nose was always smelling of dust, until a cousin opened the door of her attic in the middle of the night...

Sira still doesn't know how all that happened, she only remembers that when she regained consciousness, her cousin had no breath.

She seemed to kick him in the crotch first while struggling, and then he curled up in pain, unable to move.

Then she was afraid that he would continue to hurt her after he could move, so she found a knife that her father gave her in a panic.

It was a beautiful knife, as long as the palm of her hand, with a pink jewel in the scabbard.

The knife was very beautiful, so she begged her father to buy it for her, and because she only had time to hide it, it was the only thing that was not taken from her.

This knife is not so much a "knife" as it is an ornament.

But because it is short, it is not easy to bend, and because it is small, it is suitable for her to use force.

Because my dad used to polish it, it's sharp enough.

In a daze, she stabbed her cousin in the back.

She was terrified, she didn't dare to stop, she was afraid that her cousin would beat her, and she was afraid that his cousin would call other people.

So she stabbed and stabbed.

Until my cousin fell to the ground and couldn't get up again.

Then...she ran away, she escaped, and went to find her partner.

But she didn't dare to say what she had done, and she didn't want to go to her friends' homes, so she let them leave like just now.

Silas walked in the cold wind, there were no people on the street, and homeless people who died of hunger and cold could be seen in some corners.

She was cold and hungry, and she dragged her two skinny legs forward, and she didn't know where she was going, maybe she would see her parents soon.

Just when Sira was about to give up and was about to find a place to meet her parents, she suddenly smelled the smell of food.

The scent penetrated into her nose, occupying all her senses, and she burst out with the desire to survive and strength again!Smell the smell and move forward.

Finally, she found the place where the fragrance emanated.

In front of her was a single-family house, the walls of which had been torn apart so that people could see the open gate from the outside. Although the gate was open, there was a heavy curtain.

It should be warm inside...

Cloth curtains can block the cold wind outside.

Sira stood outside the door. She wanted to go in, but she dared not.

She has always been a well-behaved little girl, and she always obeys her parents.

She didn't want to hurt her cousin either, she was just afraid.

Just when Sira was about to collapse from the cold, the heavy curtain was suddenly lifted.

A woman in a heavy cotton coat came out rubbing her hands, and she saw the little girl standing at the bottom of the steps at a glance.

The girl was wearing a slightly thick pajamas, a ragged sackcloth, and only a pair of small boots with holes in her feet. Her ears and nose were all red from the cold, her lips were black, and she was always in the air. Trembling, her legs seemed to be unable to support the weight of her body.

The woman ran down quickly and picked up the girl who could only stand but could not walk.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." The woman pressed her head into her chest, warming the child's face, and continued to comfort her, "Go in and drink some hot soup, you will soon regain your vitality baby. "

Sila grabbed the woman's clothes tightly, her eyes were tightly closed, and tears and snot flowed down together.

Even if this woman wants to take her to hell, she will go with her.

As long as there is this moment of warmth.

The woman carried her into the relief center, and then checked the girl's body and limbs. After confirming that there was no major problem due to the freezing, but a little cold and stiff, she called for warm water to wipe the girl's body.

She firmly remembered what Master Harvey said, people with frostbite can only wipe their bodies with snow, and cannot directly use hot water, but those who are not frostbitten, but relatively cold, can use warm water.

After all the limbs were wiped off, Sila also recovered a little strength. She sat timidly on the wooden bench, her feet were still in the warm hands of the woman. She was a little embarrassed and wanted to take them back.

The woman said sternly, "You can't take it back until your feet are warm."

Sira only dared to look at her own feet at first, and then dared to look here.

It was full of long tables and benches, and there was a beautiful fireplace in the middle, bigger than hers, and more beautiful and warm.

While she was looking around curiously, a thin-looking man came over with a bowl of hot soup.

In the hot soup, there are not only kato biscuits that have been cut into small pieces and softened, but also frozen tofu, which is full of soup, and even they themselves like it very much.

The man put the soup bowl on the table in front of Sira, and said: "You, you have more, eat and drink, soup, soup."

He seemed to feel inferior to his stuttering, and his voice became smaller and smaller: "Warm, warm, fast."

Sira noticed the man's nervousness.

The strange thing is that the other party was nervous, but she wasn't afraid anymore. She smiled at the man and said, "Thank you uncle!"

The man also smiled happily: "You, you eat!"

The woman also put down Sira's feet, and wrapped Sira's feet with a thick cloth. Sira's shoes could not be worn anymore, because they were full of snow and water, and they were wet and cold.

"Don't eat it too hot." The woman tested the temperature with the back of her hand, then smiled at the man who stuttered, "You're thoughtful."

The man touched the back of his head and smiled proudly.

Because today was the first day the relief center opened, and no one came, so Shiraz got the best treatment. She not only wiped her body with hot water, but also wrapped her feet, and drank a bowl of hot water with salt and ginger. Soup.

Although Silla felt that the taste of this bowl of hot soup was a bit strange—she had never eaten ginger, but it was not bad. Drunk.

The woman went to Harvey after learning that Sira was homeless.

Harvey decided to keep her after determining that Silla was incapable of working, homeless, and a child.

From then on, Silas slept with the woman and had to work every day.

Or work, in fact, doing odd jobs casually, don't make people think that the relief center will accommodate people for nothing.
