The courtyard was unusually quiet, and the gurgling sound of the kettle in front of Jihuan was the only sound in the huge space.
Jihuan is boiling water.
Black Egg was tied behind him with a scarf, and he was looking forward from behind him with his head up at the moment, like a little spirit behind him. Little paw clutched his uncle's clothes tightly, and Heidan glanced back from time to time, as if nervous.
Ah Jin was sitting outside the door, in the center of the wooden floor. He stared straight at the black egg that was temporarily tied to Ji Huan's back with a small swaddle. He seemed to be very interested in how the scarf was tied.
Jihuan has a teapot on his left and a feeding bottle on his right.
Ajin didn't want Jihuan to answer his question right away, he slowly walked back to the room and handed over the milk powder bottle prepared in advance to Jihuan, Ajin even took out a pack of diapers.
When he saw the milk powder, Heidan became very happy and made a "tweet, tweet" sound in his mouth, and Jihuan hurried over to boil the water.
The tools for boiling water are in the compartment of the room, very familiar, it is the set that A Jin usually brings out to make tea together for the two of them. There are more than one set of tea sets on the shelf for displaying tea sets. There are all kinds of materials and styles. All of them are very beautiful and look very expensive. However, there is basically only one set that A Jin usually brings out. Apart from the tea set, there is no large kettle for home use. After asking Ah Jin for his opinion, Ji Huan simply boiled water in the kettle he usually boils tea.
Three spoonfuls of milk powder have been scooped into the milk bottle, but it cannot be used immediately after the water is boiled. Part of the water is set aside to dry. Jihuan uses the remaining part of the water to make a pot of tea for Ah Jin, and the rest are all left by him. Pour it into a copper basin, add most of the cold water, and he bathes the black egg.
Hei Dan habitually touched his neck, and after realizing that it was empty, he called out twice.
"The swimming ring is gone, this time I will support you with my hands." While explaining, Ji Huan stretched out a palm and gently supported Heidan's neck.
The palm of a young man is not generous, but for Heidan, that hand is extremely reliable and can hold up his whole world.
Bai Huan stared straight at Ji Huan, and looking at it from this angle, Heidan's eyes were full of uncles, and no one else could be seen.
Ji Huan rubbed his back belly, butt, and finally rubbed his belly.
The belly is a very sensitive part of the black egg. When it was touched here, the black egg shuddered, and then laughed "hhhhhhh".
Long-lost, black-egg laughter.
Ji Huan's tense mood suddenly softened, scratching Heidan's chin, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
He carefully cleaned Heidan's dirty little body and wiped it with a towel. After finishing all this, Heidan took the initiative to stretch out a small paw and let his uncle sniff.
"Very good, the black egg is very fragrant." Ji Huan said his evaluation seriously, and then the black egg laughed again.
Wrapping the black egg on his lower body with a dry towel, Jihuan flattened the black egg and the towel on the table next to him, took out a diaper, and began to put a diaper on the black egg.
Heidan cooperated very well and separated the two little feet, and the diaper was put on smoothly.
At this time, the water for the black egg to soak in the milk was almost cold. Jihuan poured a bottle of milk for the black egg. The claw held the big bottle, and the black egg squinted contentedly.
Although the golden bracelet is gone, the green frog is gone, and the scary person is staring at him, but the uncle is there, the bottle is there, and the diaper is on. At this point, the black egg finally settles down.
Holding the bottle and taking a few sips of neinei, Heidan's eyes closed. After so long, he could finally sleep.
"He's... asleep?" A Jin's voice suddenly came from behind him. He had long been accustomed to this approach. Ji Huan turned around with a blank face, and replied with an "um".
As soon as he turned around, the little monster sleeping soundly with the bottle in his arms appeared in front of A Jin.
A Jin observed the work of the black eggs, Ji Huan boiled another pot of water, and after mixing it, he took it to the next room where the grandfather slept, and Jihuan used the pot of water to wipe the grandpa clean.
In the end it was himself.
"Can I sleep?" Pointing to the room where Grandpa was resting, Ji Huan asked A Jin.
"Let's go." Looking up and down at the young man in front of him, Ah Jin smiled.
Before long, there was a steady breathing sound from the compartment.
If it was a human, probably only one breath could be heard, but if it was A Jin, it would be three.
It's very smooth, a sound you can only make when you're sleeping.
Deep sleep is what monsters do when they feel "very safe".
Ah Jin did not go to the opposite side to find out.
Sitting on the ground, he poured the tea in the pot into a copper basin, and dipped a handkerchief into some cold water, and he slowly unbuttoned his shirt...
Wringing out the veil, he wiped his body little by little.
The aroma of the tea covered the rancid smell, but there was still a stench on the clothes that was taken off that leaked out from the crack of the door. It was not strong, but it was enough for the hungry monsters outside the door to smell it.
almost! almost!
The monsters outside the wall let out ecstatic howls.
Fastening the buttons, Ah Jin squinted.
—
Grandpa woke up!
For Ji Huan, this is simply great news.
But the grandfather who woke up passed out again soon after he woke up - fainted from hunger.
"Human food is not suitable for monsters to eat. The nutrients needed to maintain the monster's body function in those foods are too low, and not all foods contain the nutrients that monsters need. If you want a monster to rely on human food to eat. If you feel sick, you can only eat certain foods, and the amount should be at least ten times larger." Ah Jin just glanced at the result of his diagnosis, but after saying this, his eyes stopped on Heidan again. After a while: "As for why this little monster can live on human food, I..."
Jihuan looked at him nervously.
"Probably his level is too low, sorry, I don't have any research on low-level monsters." Ajin rolled his eyes away, and dropped the sentence in a lukewarm manner.
Heidan also seemed to feel that he was disliked by others, his big eyes were flattened, and he looked at his uncle pitifully.
The uncle looked a little happy.
"In this case, can black eggs eat human food all the time?" If they can live on human food, can black eggs stay here? It's okay for Grandpa to eat a lot, he makes more money, and if Grandpa eats more and is full, can they still stay here...
However, A Jin once again denied his naive idea:
"That Karas is already an adult, so he may be able to maintain his physical strength by eating a lot, but this little monster is different, he will not grow up if he keeps eating milk powder, he will probably always be like this, you can hold it like this for a lifetime. Are you following him?"
Jihuan was stunned.
"Let me think about it." Abandoning these words, Jihuan went to prepare breakfast for the black egg, tied the black egg that had eaten breakfast in his arms, Jihuan decided to go out to find breakfast for grandpa.
Ajin gave him a list of foods "rich in nutrients required by karas", and Jihuan only knew two things on it: potatoes and beef.
After obtaining A Jin's permission, Jihuan went down the mountain to the town.
When I was on the mountain, it was good to say that the house on the mountain was originally quiet.
But when we got to the bottom of the mountain...
The deserted town is eerily quiet.
Bade Town has never been so quiet. There was no one on the street, and there was no sound. Ji Huan was stunned and walked into the vegetable shop where he used to buy vegetables. It has been several days since the town's population migration. Most of the vegetables in the vegetable shop were taken away, and most of the rest were rotten. There were only a few potatoes left, which was only enough for Jihuan to eat alone, not to mention the meat.
After searching in the town for a long time, Jihuan found a large basket of potatoes and beef.
Ji Huan made a big pot of roast beef with potatoes, most of which were brought to Grandpa's bedside, and left a plate. After hesitating for a while, Ji Huan brought it to A Jin.
There was one potato left, Jihuan steamed it and flattened it, and poured milk over it for lunch with black eggs.
Black eggs are delicious.
Grandpa also tasted delicious.
After three meals of ten times the amount of Yu Jihuan's food, Grandpa finally looked better, but only a little better, he was only able to open his eyes for a long time instead of being in a coma. If he wanted to sit up or move freely , the strength is not enough.
However, the wound on Grandpa's body finally began to heal. Before that, the wound on his body did not heal at all. Jihuan cleaned him several times, but it was still bleeding.
However, just when Grandpa's situation began to improve, Jihuan discovered that he had swept away all the potatoes and beef in the town: the fresh meat had long been gone, and the frozen meat in the supermarket had now been emptied by him. Wanting to continue to maintain grandpa's physical strength and let grandpa continue to improve, this means that he must go to other places to buy new food.
Jihuan decides to try his luck in the next town.
He didn't tell Grandpa, but when he told Ajin about it, Ajin gave him a card, and Jihuan didn't refuse - he really had no money.
Black Egg is excited.
This time, due to the long distance, Jihuan specially found a motorcycle to ride. Heidan, who was riding a motorcycle for the first time, was very excited, although he could only be held in the backpack on his chest by his uncle. It was very firm, but that didn't stop him from staring desperately out with his big, straight eyes.
Seeing him so excited, Jihuan felt a little guilty: Thinking about it now, the black egg has grown so big, and the place where he lives every day is one-third of the family's land. Good but afraid of meeting people, in this way, black eggs have never been brought out to play.
Thinking of this, Ji Huan felt a little uncomfortable. After successfully arriving in the town next door, he didn't buy home immediately, but deliberately walked around with the black eggs.
