Chapter 22 The Great Filial Daughter
Jiang Qin and Mi'er stood in front of a 24-hour convenience store, the infrared probe of the automatic door was already dizzy, and Mi'er jumped at the door for a while before it barely opened slowly.
There was only one clerk staring sleepily at his phone, and he didn't look at the two of them.
"Is there still hot water?" Jiang Qin asked softly, he was afraid that if his voice was loud, this sleepy clerk would die suddenly.
"Yes, use it yourself." The clerk replied weakly.
Mi'er ran to the crisper early and piled up stacks of self-heating rice and instant noodles.
Jiang Qin opened the lid of the kettle, stretched out his palm and slowly felt that the water was already warm. I looked at the microwave oven on the side, and it seemed to be broken.
It seems that Mi'er can't eat hot things today, because of Ashia's relationship, Jiang Qin unconsciously took on the role of a parent, but felt a little distressed.
Then he turned his gaze to the induction cooker on the side.
This thing should have been brought by the clerk, so you can borrow it.
Jiang Qin moved the induction cooker to the small table in the store, put a brand new iron pot on the shelf, and put all the dishes in the instant noodles and self-heating rice brought by Mi'er into the pot, along with all the seasonings. It makes up a simple small hot pot.
Because of the smorgasbord of seasonings, the taste may not be great, but the portion is large enough to at least fill the honey.
"What a young father." The clerk looked at the happy scene on their side and complained.
Mi'er said she hadn't eaten for five days, and she gobbled it up.
Jiang Qin watched from the side and sighed: What a good girl, but it's a pity that she is from the church.
"Thank you." Mi'er puffed out her cheeks and thanked her earnestly again, "I will definitely repay it." ”
This little girl had obviously forgotten who had caused her so badly, and her eyes were full of gratitude.
When she was full, Mi'er began to cry, and she began to mutter: "This is how Ashya used to cook for me, and everything was boiled together to make a strange-tasting chowder. We live on a farm in Ireland and don't have to think about anything. ”
The corners of Jiang Qin's mouth twitched, and he asked with some astonishment, "You were actually raised by Ashia?" ”
"Hmm." Mi'er nodded.
"What a little conscience! So why did you still join the church? And to hunt her down. Jiang Qin patted her on the head and asked.
"She's a werewolf, I'm a human, and the presiding judge said that humans can't stay with werewolves. The Knights of Judgment are on a mission to hunt werewolves and bloods. Mi'er's eyes glowed with a divine golden-black light, and she said in a nonetheless voice, as if repeating a predetermined hint.
Jiang Qin lifted her long golden hair, and saw a black mark on her neck, like the style of the Black Court Church.
"Who took you away from Asia?"
"A very fat man, everybody calls him...... Butcher. There is also a man, whom everyone calls ...... Savior! ”
For a moment, his anger enveloped this convenience store, and the clerk looked at Jiang Qin with a spirit, and then shrank back in his position and didn't dare to move.
As a night worker, he knew that some strange people could not be messed with, and his previous brother had evaporated in such a quiet night because of too many words.
Jiang Qin almost crushed the iron pot, and he nodded silently.
Very well, this is not a coincidence, the butcher, Euan, and the Black Church!
Jiang Qin vaguely felt that a conspiracy was brewing against himself and Ashia, and Mi'er was one of the more critical chess pieces in the battle.
"Come home with me, Mi'er."
"Absolutely not!" Mi'er blushed at the thought of Ahia, and she said, "A human, a werewolf, and a knight of the Judgment, such a strange combination. And Asia doesn't like me anymore, I betrayed her. ”
Jiang Qin didn't force it, touched Mi'er's head, settled the account and left.
——————————
When Jiang Qin returned home, he smelled a fragrance.
There was a gurgling bubbling sound in the kitchen, the aroma was strong, something should be cooking. The kitchen door was ajar, and the long-haired figure was busy inside.
On the stove, there was a chubby crockpot, which Ashia insisted on buying.
Her mind, which has not yet adapted to modern life, seems to be stuck in the days of hundreds of years ago when people used crockpots to store and cook food.
But after all, it's not a fried egg with all five flavors, it's upgraded to a chowder with five flavors!
"Lao Qin, why didn't you come back in the morning and try my chowder."
Ahia looked sleepy, and her dazed appearance made Jiang Qin have to worry about the taste in the crockpot, but as long as she didn't use sugar as salt, it was fine.
"Is it so abundant in the morning?" Jiang Qin looked at the tall chubby crockpot filled with all kinds of food, and there was a Wang Ba's head in the most eye-catching position.
"This is the charm of chowder, as long as you keep adding water, you can eat it forever!"
Asia handed Jiang Qin a pair of chopsticks, sat next to him, and naturally leaned over to relieve the fatigue of supporting her upper body with her waist.
Jiang Qin took a bite casually, it was not delicious, but it was better than what he cooked for Mi'er. It's just that the taste is a little weird, and it's very familiar, and I always feel like I've eaten it before.
"Okay, much better than I thought." Jiang Qin looked at Ashya and asked, "Why don't you eat it?" ”
"Because I think it's unpalatable." Asia rightly said, "Would you like some plum jam?" ”
"No, I don't." Jiang Qin squinted his eyes, picked up a piece of meat like a snake, and mechanically stuffed it into his mouth.
"Try a piece of bread, be sure to be brown." Asia handed over a black piece of something, hard and dry.
Jiang Qin brushed the blue jam on the bread, and the sweet and sour smell made this piece of black bread look a little more delicious, but it was only a little bit.
"Don't you hate bread?" Jiang Qin asked, he could still remember the first time Asia ate bread, and he was very resistant.
"Bread is not a good thing, but jam cleanses it of its sins, and a friend of mine told me, but unfortunately I can't remember who he is." Asia nibbled on the black bread, not like she was tasting it, but as a habit that had been built up over the years.
"It's okay, I can eat it." Jiang Qin took a bite and put it down, he said slowly, "I met Mi'er today." ”
"Ah, that little girl is okay." Asia asked lukewarmly, seemingly not paying much attention.
"It's okay, I almost starved to death, so I bought her something."
"Well, it's okay not to die."
Jiang Qin hesitated for a moment, and then said softly, "She told me about you. ”
"That little conscience is embarrassed to say that I raised her, but she ran into the church to hunt me down by herself." Achia frowned, Jiang Qin rarely saw the melancholy on her face.
"Have you seen her neck?"
"What's wrong?"
"She seems to have been planted with a curse." Jiang Qin pressed Achia's almost violent body in time, hugged it tightly, and said softly, "A curse mark loyal to the Black Court." ”
It is obviously an intriguing thing that a knight of judgment belonging to the White Court has been planted with the curse of belonging to the Redeemer of the Black Court.
"Why didn't the people of Baiting protect her! This is not the same as what was said at the beginning! Asia said with a slight tremble, her great anger was hidden under this silence, like a volcano about to erupt, but it was suppressed, and then said in a low voice, "They broke the contract, but there is nothing I can do, I am too weak." ”
"Don't worry, you're here to repay me, don't pay attention to these things." Jiang Qin stroked her long white smooth hair and said lovingly, "I'll solve it, since she is your daughter." ”
