Walking out of the tavern, it was already dark. The wind was blowing, but Lorraine's heart was on fire.

Outside the tavern, there were many people waiting to eat and drink, and they all cheered when they saw Lorraine come out with a lot of food. They all felt that they could eat and take it with them, and they were happy.

Only his father was left in the Lorraine family. When he saw the bread and bacon in the child's hand, the old father burst into tears.

"Father, I think I might have a chance." Lorraine couldn't hold back the joy in her heart, and said to her father in a low voice, eager to let her family share it.

The old father nodded again and again, took Lorraine's hand and said, "Go back to the hotel first, your mother and younger siblings can't stand the cold wind outside, but they are still hungry." ”

Father and son hurried back to a nearby cheap hotel with their hard-won food. The whole family lived in the basement, which was pitch black, and walking in was like entering a hole in the ground.

Lorraine's younger siblings were already hungry and speechless, and only when they heard Lorraine's shouts did they open their eyes slightly and smell the faint fragrance of the bread.

Lorraine's parents prevented their children from eating right away, and first asked the innkeeper for some hot water, so that the dough would be soaked until soft and swallowed slowly. The family ate silently in the dark, with a few satisfied laughs and tearful cries from time to time.

Waiting for her younger siblings to eat and sleep, Lorraine had time to tell her what she had experienced tonight. His parents were honest and poor, and they didn't understand very well, but they both lamented that their children had made good luck and at least brought food to the family.

"I don't know who organized this free meal, but I think he must have something in mind. I think I did well today and should be appreciated. Whatever you ask me to do, I'm willing to do it. ”

The Lorraine family had no choice, they had seen countless people starving to death, freezing to death, and destitute. Every day people in the hotel are driven out into the street because they can't afford to pay a few copper coins. Tonight is the last night for their family, and tomorrow ......

"Maybe I should have waited at the door of the inn, or even at the door of the tavern. If they want to look for me, they can't miss it. Lorraine left the tavern and only cared about delivering food to her family, and didn't think much else.

Thinking that his future and even the lives of his whole family might be lost, Lorraine immediately couldn't sit still. He left the basement, rushed out of the hotel, and stumbled to the tavern in the darkness.

It was late at night, and there was a large crowd of people gathered outside the tavern. All sorts of people from all walks of life heard the news that there was a local tyrant from the south in the tavern. They didn't care if they were invited or not, they all crowded over, but they couldn't get in.

Lorraine was so short that she couldn't even see the tavern door behind the crowd. All his predictions come from speculation, and he will inevitably suffer from gains and losses at this moment, and his mood is impetuous.

After thinking about it, Lorraine decided to go around to the back door of the tavern and find a way to meet the two who had tested him—the back door was indeed deserted, with only a torch illuminating it.

On the trash can at the back door of the tavern was a halfling girl squatting on a chicken leg, and there were seven or eight unlucky people who had fainted on the ground. When she saw Lorraine, she sneered: "Boy, you are too thin, don't come to me." I'm going to beat you to death. ”

Ah......, Lorraine hadn't seen this halfling. But he did not intend to give up, but pleaded, "Hello, ma'am. My name is Lorraine, Eve. Lorraine. I came out of the tavern and must go in now. ”

Hearing the name, the halfling girl raised her head slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Eve?" It's a girl's name. ”

"Yes, I'm a girl." Lorraine stroked her short hair and simple clothes, and said nervously: "It's more convenient, otherwise it's easy to get into trouble." But I can work like a boy. ”

"Oh, then I can't let you in." The halfling girl mercilessly refused, "You wait for tomorrow." Maybe someone will come looking for you. ”

"Why?" Lorraine asked, "Did I do something wrong?" ”

"I promised a stupid woman named Inisha that some fool boy wouldn't touch too many young girls lest he steal food outside. Even though you're not pretty, I can't let you in. ”

What kind of broken reason is this?

Lorraine shouted urgently: "No....., don't do this. I have a family to support and I need a job. Otherwise my family will starve to death and freeze to death.

It's certainly not for nothing that you've invited so many people to dinner tonight. You're picking people, right? I'm sure I can. Please, let me do whatever I want. ”

After eating a chicken leg, the halfling girl spits out the chicken bone. She still refused to give in, and hummed and said: "It's the most dangerous thing like you's 'do anything', even I'm afraid." You'd better wait for news, not tonight. ”

It's all on this, how can Lorraine wait? She was still about to plead, but suddenly she saw a gray hidden servant emerge from the light of the torches at the back door, looking left and right.

The halfling girl was startled at the sight of the hidden servant, jumped up and ran into the distance, and shouted: "Oops, that stupid boy is getting more and more angry, he is actually angry." I can't stand the teasing! ”

Within three seconds, the back door of the tavern was kicked and exploded. A tall young man stood out from the flying debris, yelling at the fleeing halfling girl: "Kelly, I let you guard the back door, who allows you to take care of my private affairs?" Do you want to die! ”

The halfling girl had long since run away, leaving only a series of laughs.

The young man glared again, and Lorraine, who was cowering, shuddered at his gaze. The latter hurriedly said, "Sir, I want to go in." I'm looking for a job. ”

"What's your name?"

"Eve. Lorraine. I'm ......, I'm a girl. Lorraine remembered the conversation she had just heard, and suddenly realized something. She straightened her short hair, pulled the corners of her clothes, and tried to make herself look good.

"Come to the tavern tomorrow." The young man was about to turn around after speaking, "It's too chaotic at the moment, I don't have time to care about you." ”

Lorraine shouted, "Sir, can you talk now?" I still have family, I have mom and dad and younger siblings, but we don't have money for food and lodging. Tomorrow we will be evicted from the hotel where we are staying. ”

The young man turned his head again, touched a coin casually, and said bluntly: "Don't talk so much nonsense, I said tomorrow will be tomorrow." ”

Lorraine stretched out his hands to catch the coin, and when he spread it out on his palm, he saw that it was a yellow gold coin. When she looked up again, the young man was gone, and he walked away freely.

Oh my God, gold coins, they're gold coins as soon as you make a shot!

Spacious, generous, bold!

This kind of man wants it!

The girl, Lorraine, was overjoyed and cried out in ecstasy, "Thank you, sir." Thank you so much. I will definitely come tomorrow, I will definitely come. You can do whatever you want me to do. I promise, I can do anything for you. ”
