Chapter 83 Charcoal in the Snow
The mood is good when there are many grains.
In other words, his diligence also made his mood very comfortable.
These days, he is very diligent in his daily assignments. And every time he did every job with a smile and enthusiasm, which also helped him quickly mingle in Pelican Town. It didn't take long for almost everyone in the town to know that Song of the Mermaid had a new member, a cheerful and outgoing bard.
"Hey, I said don't look unhappy like that. We're all members of the same guild, but wouldn't it be uncomfortable for you to look at me like a stranger? β
With a hammer in his hand and a few nails in his other, he looked at the guild members in front of him with a smile.
Brad was a little embarrassed, he laughed and touched the back of his head, while turning his head to look at Coco and Cream next to him. The big man thought about it and said, "Yes...... Oh, yes! Coco, Cream, everyone is a member of the same guild, and Brother Gu Duo has been working in our guild these days, and the work is done very well! You say yes, right? Buffy. β
Babyy, who was sitting on Brad's shoulder, didn't seem to expect to be named by his partner, and was obviously stunned. Then, the flower fairy tilted its head and spread its hands as if it didn't understand at all.
"Big bread! Which side the hell are you from?! β
Coco looked stubborn, as long as he didn't face Arrow, this necromancer's eyebrows were always so fierce. She stomped her foot angrily, and pointed the wrench she was holding at the grainβ
"This singing toad is so rude to the elder brother, so you are still on his side?!"
Brad's face looked full of grievances, he scratched the back of his head, and the wooden stick he was carrying on his shoulder now didn't know whether to put it down or continue to carry it.
Cream sat on the pile of wood on the side, snorted a sneer, and said, "In these years, there are still people who think they are powerful and can do whatever they want?" Hey, bard, maybe you think you're strong, so you think you have the power to dictate to the president, right? But I'm going to tell you, the last guy who thought he was strong enough to beat a hundred presidents is now three feet tall. β
"I don't know if your grave grass is tall or not, but I know I didn't ask your guild to help you chat here! Hurry up and get to work! β
Mayor Round Cheese appeared behind Cream at some point, roaring loudly. The cream was so frightened that he immediately rolled off the pile of wood and fell to the ground clutching his buttocks.
The mayor put one hand on his fat waist, and pointed to a row of large houses under renovation with the other, and said, "Autumn is halfway over, and winter will come soon." Now you have to reinforce your house as soon as possible so that you can withstand the cold winds and snow of winter. So...... We didn't pay for you to sit here and chat and connect with the guild! β
Shouted at by the mayor, Cream quickly picked up the saw that he had just thrown on the ground, and began to sawing wood vigorously. Coco also waved his wand, and the undead soldier and skeleton dog carried the cut wood and quickly handed it to Brad, who was waiting there. Brad threw the wood onto the roof, and the grain that took it immediately picked up a hammer and struck it with a clang.
"Don't worry! Don't worry, Mayor Mare! When did our guild work cause trouble for Pelican Town? Rest assured! This gold coin from Pelican Town is definitely worth the price! β
Round Cheese snorted, "I hope so." Feed! Everybody! The Mermaid Song is here to help, but it doesn't completely replace the work at hand! Get busy, don't be lazy! β
With a roar of round cheese, a large group of townspeople gathered here took action and began their busy work.
The guild members of Merfolk Song surpass ordinary townsfolk in terms of physical strength and accuracy, and their work speed is naturally much faster. While others were still busy working on the roof, they had already finished decorating the roof of Mayor Round Cheese in one morning, reinforcing the walls, repainting them, and tidying up the flowers and plants in the courtyard by the way.
Leaving for the second house, Gu Liduo waved the hammer in his hand and said with a smile: "Look, aren't we working together very quickly?" Coco, Cream, what are you two going to do to stop treating me like this? β
Coco snorted: "I'm not upset with you, I'm not upset with your attitude towards the president's brother." As long as you treat the president respectfully in the future, I won't think much of you, after all, we are all members of the Mermaid's Song. β
Gu Li laughed a lot and said, "Alas, this is really wronged." All right! To express my apologies to the President, let our magicians be wary, ......"
He looked left and right, and it just so happened that the next shop to be decorated was a dim sum shop. He walked into the shop and said a few words to the owner, gave the money, and soon brought out five cream cakes and came to the crowd.
"It's been a busy morning, come, try this? Our little princess needs this kind of thing the most, so I should make amends to the president, okay? β
Coco's eyes stared straight at the beautifully decorated cake in front of her, and her eyes began to glow! After hesitating for a moment, she snorted, and the undead soldier next to her stepped forward to grab the cake, picked up a spoon and scooped a small piece and handed it to Coco.
"Don't think I'll forgive you like that, I'll just try it first! You can't say anything so heavy to the president's brother again, you know? Ahh β
When you take a bite of cake, the sweet taste spreads from your mouth to your whole body!
Although Arrow's three meals a day were delicious, the guild had always made foods that were very easy to fill and made with as cheap ingredients as possible, and a cake like this, which required a lot of wasted eggs, milk, and flour, and even took a lot of time to decorate, had never been made. What's more, now this situation of adding food,
Seeing that the cocoa had started to eat, the grains smiled and handed the cake in their hands to Brad and Parfay. The pair apparently didn't expect two copies to be delivered to them, and Brad paused slightly, holding two cakes in both hands, sticking out his tongue and licking one of them, and immediately handed the other to Parfait on his shoulder.
"Oh, big brother with many grains, the two of us can't eat so much, and Parfay only needs a little bit."
That being said, Brad's own eyebrows fluttered when he saw that Parfay was now happily eating the cream.
Gu Liduo smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken...... The two of them are registered as a profession in the Mermaid's Song, so they count as an artificial one, right? β
Brad nodded honestly: "Yes, the two of us are one person." The president told us. But this is normal, Parfay and I can't be separated from anyone, she can help me watch around, and I can protect her. β
"Even if neither of you could do without the other, I would count two as two, not one so economically. So, please~~~"
I have to say that the sound of many grains is really gentle. Maybe it's because he sings a lot, and his tone seems to be born with a certain rhythm.
While Brad and Parfay were eating the cake, Gu Liduo also handed a cake to the cream over there.
Looking at this cake, Cream sneered and reached out to take it. But just as his fingers were about to touch the cake, Gu Liduo suddenly retracted his hand, causing Cream to scratch the air.
Grains: "Cream, your prejudice against me...... It's really not small, isn't it? β
Since he had caught a void, the sneer on the corner of Cream's mouth continued to be maintained, and he simply retracted his hand: "What, now that you are starting a small group?" Want to exclude me? β
"Oops, no, no, you're thinking too much. How could I possibly ostracize someone in the guild because they didn't think well of me? Isn't this a mermaid song that is not good for us? β
Gu Liduo handed over the cake again, and at the same time bowed slightly, showing his respect-
"I'm just a little curious, curious why this thief, who seems to have joined the guild only before me, is the one who reacts the most to my remarks about our guild leader."
Coco looked up, and the little face that was full of cream was a little unhappy.
"Haha, I'm not saying little sister, your reaction is not intense. I'm just saying that after I've confessed my mistake to you, only this Mr. Cream still hasn't looked at me with a good face. So, I'm curious to know what happened to make you so single-mindedly loyal to President Arrow? β
The sneer on the corner of Cream's mouth never put away, and he only glanced slightly at the cake that was handed over. But then he saw Coco over there, Brad and Parfay were both looking at themselves while eating, and after thinking about it, he finally reached out and took the cake and took a small bite.
"Loyal? I can't say. It's just that the president saved me when I was most helpless and hesitant. Everyone in the world is easy to put icing on the cake, but it is the most difficult to send charcoal in the snow. Bard, if someone gives you charcoal in the most painful, hesitant, and helpless time of your life, won't you remember it for the rest of your life and be grateful for it for the rest of your life? β
When he said this, Gu Liduo's eyes, which were originally full of smiles, were frozen for a moment.
His smile narrowed slightly, and his gaze jumped into the distance...... It seems to recall some unknown memory.
This kind of distraction only lasted for a moment, and soon he smiled again, nodded and said, "I see, send charcoal in the snow...... Truth be told, I've been in this situation before. So, I'm so grateful for the smile she showed me at that time. When I was most miserable, helpless, and even desperate that I thought that there was no hope in life and that there was only one way out, death was the only way out, she helped me at that time and gave me the courage to get through it. So...... I can understand your thoughts. β
