Chapter Eighty-Four: The Sisters' Backgrounds
Lin Xiaole looked at Liliana in front of her.
A whole bowl of winter melon pork rib soup, plus a few slices of fresh vegetables, and a small half of bread, Gollum was poured into the stomach by the little girl.
Perhaps it was because she ate too quickly and in a hurry, but it had just come out of the pot, and the hot soup made Liliana's cheeks flush.
Of course, it may also be because of shyness.
"Another bowl, shall we?"
Lin Xiao said with a smile, the one he was holding in his hand, he just looked at the cute appearance, and he hadn't moved much until now.
"No, no, I'm full."
Liliana whispered, placing the bowl in her hand down in a restrained manner.
"However, if there are so many, I can't eat it alone, so let's eat with me, is that okay?"
Lin Xiao said, and took the bowl from Lori's undetermined little hand.
"Well, then......"
Liliana nodded reluctantly.
……
The two heartily shared a whole pot of pork rib soup and vegetables.
Of course, the bread that Liliana brought was not wasted in the slightest.
Until the bottom of the dry pot is completely drained, the little guy who sticks out his head and looks in doesn't know how many "another bowls" he has eaten.
She really can't help it, this soup is so fragrant.
I don't know what kind of ingredients are used to boil it, and there are many incredible spices.
A winter melon pork rib soup, which is just a light meal in modern times, is simply a delicacy in the world that is unique in the sky and unique in the earth.
Forgive her, in her limited memory, the best thing this poor little girl has ever eaten is nothing more than the welcome meal she had when she joined the Eighth Branch.
"Have you eaten enough? If that's not enough, I can cook another pot. ”
Liliana in front of her was staring at the last bowl of pork rib soup in her hand in a daze, as if she was thinking about something.
Lin Xiao asked softly, breaking the little girl's contemplation.
She hurriedly came back to her senses.
"No, that's enough, it's just ......"
With a slight hesitation, Liliana whispered.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this bowl of soup? Lin Xiao continued to ask.
"No, the soup is delicious, I ...... Just wanted to say, can you lend me this bowl if you can? ”
Liliana said embarrassedly, she thought it was a bit presumptuous.
But after tasting such a delicious thing and calming down, little Lori couldn't help but think of her "gentle" sister.
My sister has never eaten anything so delicious!
Even at the orientation party of the eighth court, she gave most of her share to Liliana.
She always takes care of herself so much that while Liliana is grateful, she always wants to do something for her sister.
Lin Xiao immediately understood.
Are you worried about Eglace?
At their age and stage, innocent feelings are really the most beautiful thing in the world.
Lin Xiao had no reason to refuse Lily's kindness.
He took out a box with a lid from the [package] and helped Liliana pack the only remaining bowl of soup.
"When I go back, heat it up a little and it tastes better."
Little Lori had a happy smile on her face, but she nodded vigorously.
My sister will like it, right?
But then she thought that she was obviously here to express her gratitude, but in the end, she ended up eating and drinking for nothing, and she took it for nothing?
The flush on Liliana's face deepened.
"I'm sorry, sir, I couldn't remember your name, and, thank you so much for your help, ...... this afternoon"
As she spoke, her little body bent down and saluted respectfully to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao patted her little head, this shy little guy has a completely different personality from Eglace, maybe because he is too well protected.
"You're welcome, my name is Lin Xiao, if you can, can you chat with me? No one has spoken to me yet. ”
He said with a smile.
The little girl looked up at him, her big watery eyes were confused, she didn't understand what the so-called chat was for, but she nodded anyway.
"Okay, Mr. Lin Xiao, though, I'm not very good at chatting......"
Liliana said uncertainly.
Throughout the year, she rarely spoke to anyone other than her sister.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but rub her beautiful silver hair again, and said mischievously:
"Don't call sir, call brother!"
He didn't want to be called a student by his knight lady in the future.
"Huh?" A hint of embarrassment flashed between Liliana's eyebrows, and after a while, she hesitated and whispered twice, "Brother, brother." ”
Lin Xiao was satisfied.
The two of them cleaned up the scattered bags and the messy floor, and sat down against the fire.
At this time, it was night, the silver moon was in the sky, and the stars were bright and extinguished.
This seems to be the closest Vitellian can get to the starry sky, and the spotless night sky is extraordinarily bright with the brilliance of the stars.
"Liliana, were you and your sister born in Agarela?"
Retracting her gaze, Lin Xiao glanced at the little girl who was sitting next to her with her knees crossed, looking a little cramped, and asked.
"No, it's not." Liliana shook her head, "We were abandoned here by our parents four years ago. ”
"Abandonment?"
Lin Xiao's tone was a little higher, and a trace of puzzlement flashed in his eyes.
No matter from which point of view, they are cute and beautiful to almost perfection, such two daughters, who would be willing to abandon them?
This question seems to be about Liliana's sore spot, and the little girl, who was already a little uneasy, looked even more shrunken, and her two calves involuntarily retracted it.
"There is a dark power in our bodies, and Mom and Dad seem to be great people, they can't bear to send us to church, so they can only hide us here."
"That's what my sister said, and although I didn't understand what it meant, my sister asked me to understand them, saying that they didn't do anything wrong, they just had no choice!"
With a hint of confusion on her face, she carefully explained.
When talking about the power of darkness, she raised her head and secretly observed Lin Xiao, and saw that his expression did not appear unusual, so Xiao Lori relieved herself.
After all, even in Agarela, there are not a few people who will feel afraid and ostracized by them.
Lin Xiao sighed silently and nodded.
This is not difficult to understand, think about it, even in the modern society that shouts "justice and democracy" every day, there are not a few people who are discriminated against because of their differences, let alone under a feudal system like Vitlien.
He didn't want to blame anyone, maybe Liliana and Eglace's parents had fought for it, but they just failed.
"So, have you been living alone in Agarela all these years?"
Lin Xiao asked again.
"Hmm!" Liliana nodded, "Originally, there was still Granny Yolanda, but she also passed away two years ago, so only my sister and I were left. ”
There was a hint of gloom on her face, but it didn't last long, and she quickly adjusted.
"Actually, there's nothing to worry about, my sister has always taken good care of me, although I'm always stupid and can't help with anything, but my sister is too powerful, she took me to pass the assessment of the eighth branch of the temple at the age of nine, and she is the youngest among them!"
"She said that as long as we can pass the final test, we will be eligible to enter the Dark Temple, and at that time, we will be able to earn a lot of money and live a good life."
The little girl said proudly, with some longing in her eyes, obviously looking forward to the good days ahead.
"The final test of the eighth branch this year is also coming soon, with my sister's strength, it must be no problem!"
"Even when it's the final test, I must also participate, and I hope that I won't cause her too much trouble at that time."
Liliana looked a little sad.
She knows her identity as an oil bottle, and she has been annoyed about it for a long time.
"Does it have to be two sisters for the final test?"
Lin Xiao asked suddenly.
