Chapter 140: A Soldier's Vacation (1/2 for the Scarlet Elite Hall Master)
Adams walked the streets of Gadar in a brand new winter coat issued by the army. Before he www.biquge.info go home, he has to bring something for his family, and at the same time, he has to prepare the ingredients for the evening.
In the sky, the fierce wind gradually subsided, and only the goose-feather snow was drifting, and some children began to appear playing in the streets of Gadar town.
Adams' heart was warm, and he would soon be able to meet his wife, Salor, and his little Adams.
But before you go home, you still have to be ready to do what you need to do.
He came to the business district, where the shops were still open. As the Winter Veil Festival approaches, stores are starting to launch a series of discount activities.
Adams came to the door of a barbecue restaurant, and outside the door of this restaurant, there was a piece of advertising paper that said that the roast pork leg was reduced in price, 50 copper coins for three. Thinking about the children at home, he walked in.
When he came out again, three steaming paper packets wrapped in paper appeared in his hands.
Adams sniffed the aroma of roasted pork legs in the paper bag, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he held the paper bag in his arms, and continued walking.
He remembers that there was an engineering repair shop run by a dwarf in the commercial area, which sold some small remote-controlled toys made by engineering.
It's time for little Adams to have his first decent toy.
Thinking of his child, Little Adams, Adams' face showed soft lines, and he smiled and walked towards the engineering shop.
Soon, he came to the engineering shop with a sign "Gadar Engineering and Repair".
He stepped forward and held the roast pork leg in his arms with one hand, and pushed the door open with the other.
The bells on the door jingled, the heat came from the floor, and the sound of gnomes could be heard from inside the shop.
"Welcome!"
A sound of moving metal sounded inside the engineering shop, and soon the little gnome with pink hair, a pair of small engineering eyes, and greasy overalls walked out.
"Hey sir, do you have anything you need?"
"Oh, I remember you guys had that blue RC car here." Adams gestured with one hand, "It's so big." ”
"Oh, is that what you're talking about?" The dwarf pressed a remote control in his hand, and a small blue bench-sized remote control car ran out and stood in front of him.
"Oh, how much does this cost?" Adams asked, pointing at it.
"Sir, this thing isn't cheap." The gnome looked at him and said, "It costs 2.5 gold coins." ”
"So expensive?!" Adams asked, surprised.
"Sir, engineering is a great science. It's not like magic, you just have to meditate and you'll have it. Each of the engineering supplies is a perfect work carefully crafted by scientists. The gnome used the remote control to direct the blue car to circle around the ground, "It performs perfectly, and there are almost no mechanical failures." ”
"No, no, no, it's too expensive." Adams shook his head, "I just want a cheaper one to buy a toy for my son." It doesn't need to be that expensive. ”
"That's... All right. The dwarf turned and walked to the inside of the house, "Sir, please wait a moment, I'll find it for you." I've made other ones before... Toy. ”
With a clang, the gnome walked out with a few toys in his arms.
One by one, he laid them on the ground.
"I still have these things here, fighting robots, remote-controlled racing cars, remote-controlled snowmen." The gnome pointed to the toys on the ground, "They're not expensive, but sometimes they have mechanical problems... It's just that you can't move, but it's not dangerous, it's suitable for children to play, and the price is acceptable to you. A 50 copper coin. ”
Adams scrutinized the toys on the floor, which were covered in a layer of dust.
"I want that RC car, you wipe me clean."
"Yes, no problem, sir." The dwarf rubbed the remote-controlled racing car on the ground, "You bought my product here, if something goes wrong in the future, you can come to me for repair at any time." As long as I'm still here, it doesn't matter, I don't charge extra. ”
The gnome wiped the toy race car clean, then found a gift bag and put the remote control and toys in it, and handed it to Adams.
Adams took out the money and gave it to him.
"All right, sir. I wish you a happy Winter Veil in advance. ”
At the dwarf's greeting, Adams walked out of the engineering shop, and now he was going home to see his wife and son.
Adams' home is in a residential area directly across from the business district and needs to be crossed through the town's square.
As he passed the town square, Adams bought three more pieces of brown bread, some butter, and fruit for the evening's reception.
The town squares are full of refugees still begging.
Adams had no choice but to get out of here before they could surround him. His own ability can't guarantee the food and clothing of his family, how can he have the heart to take care of them? I can only say sorry to them.
Once you enter the residential area, the environment here is much better. It's orderly, not as cluttered as the square.
The residential areas of Gadar are mostly inhabited by the families of Crusader soldiers, as well as municipal workers from the town of Gadar, as well as citizens who have regular jobs, and there are garrisons patrolling 24 hours a day.
Adams walked along the road to his home, where many home-based women were sweeping the snow from their homes, and some women saw Adams asking him about their husbands or relatives.
Adams smiled and replied to them, most of the neighbors on the street he knew. Many of their husbands and relatives still share a wing and a regiment with them.
When they learned that their husbands and relatives would also return soon, the excited women simply dropped the tools in their hands and went back to clean up themselves, just to give their husbands and relatives a good image.
Finally, Adams returned to his doorway.
In front of his house, the snow on the ground has been piled up on both sides of the road, and a child is busy making a snowman on the snow, and his body is already covered with a layer of snow slag.
"Orr!" Adams couldn't help but shout at the little boy.
The little boy turned his head to look at the person who called his name, and he saw his father, and he rushed into the house excitedly throwing the snow from his hand, shouting.
"Mom! Daddy is back! Mom! Daddy is back! ”
Soon, a woman wearing an apron ran out and slipped into Adams' arms.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Sweetheart. You see I've got something in my hand. Adams said with a grin at his wife. And, the kids were watching us from behind. ”
Adams' child, Orr, stood on the front steps of his house, giving his father a thumbs up. "Daddy! You're amazing! Mom is such a powerful woman, and only you can subdue her! ”
Adams looked at his son with a smile, then hung the toy in his hand on his arm and gave his son a military salute.
Orr also learned to return a military salute.
"What's wrong with Mom?"
Salor replied to the child, then broke away from Adams's arms, took the food from his arms, and walked towards the house.
"Come in, it's cold outside." Salol beckoned to the father and son.
"You go back first, and Orr and I will play outside for a while." Adams spoke to his wife, and he waved at Orr.
"Come on! Orr! Adams beckoned to his son and said mysteriously, "Daddy brought you a good friend this time!" ”
"What a good friend!" Orr rushed over and hugged Adams' thighs and looked up at him.
Adams crouched down, opened the gift bag on his arm, and pulled out a remote-controlled race car.
"Look!" Adams gave it to his son as if he were offering a treasure.
"Wow! It's just pretty cool! Father! Surprised and excited, Orr said, "Raul has one of these toy cars, and every time he plays with him in front of me." I asked him to borrow it, but he was reluctant! Now I have that too! Daddy, I love you to death! ”
Orr got into his father's arms, kissed him, then placed the toy car on the ground, activated the remote control, and began to play with the remote control.
"Be careful, son." Adams said as he looked at his son, who was playing with his toys. "I'll go in and help your mother, don't go far. Remember to come back for dinner later, you know? ”
"Got it, Dad. I'm going to find Raul! See who of us is racing fast! Orr shouted excitedly and rushed to the house next door, "Haha, my remote control car is called Peter Pan!" Raul! My Peter Pan is here to challenge your bumblebee! ”
Adams smiled as his son disappeared into the courtyard of the house next door, and then pushed open the door of his house and entered the living room.
The fireplace in the room was blazing, and the room was unusually warm, like spring.
Adams stripped off his winter coat and armor and walked to his wife in the kitchen in a lined cotton coat.
Inside the kitchen, Salor is sorting through the items Adams has purchased. Adams hugged his wife's waist from behind and rested his head around her neck.
"Honey, prepare something more. In the evening Pierce, Wilmot, and Hubbard, they would come to our house for dinner in the evening, and their families. ”
"Okay, you've got to get the money." Sallo turned around in his arms and looked directly at him, "These are the only things. I can't make a delicious meal without money. ”
"Don't worry, I have the money, I'll give it to you later." Adams put his nose to his wife's nose and said affectionately, "Now, while there's no one at home, let's do something we love to do." ”
Salor's face was red, she tilted her head to look outside and said, "Orr is still outside, wait for the evening, right?" ”
"No, no, no, I'm coming back this time, I can only stay for today, and I'm going to leave tomorrow morning. Orr has already gone to play next door, and he won't be able to come back for a while. And the night is night. Now? Adams laughed, then hugged his wife sideways, "I can't wait!" ”
Adams rushed to the bedroom eagerly with his wife in his arms, "I think Orr should have a brother or sister!" ”
The bedroom door slammed shut.
Today is a beautiful day for the soldiers of the 5th Army.
