…
When Wendy walked into the hospital with a box of dinner, she saw Nana's father, Tigu Pine, talking to a man and a woman. Then the two of them bent over and bent their knees, as if they wanted to kneel down, but were stopped by Baron Tigu. After a stalemate, the two had to bow a few times before turning back in three steps and leaving.
When they disappeared at the gate, Wendy walked over curiously and asked, "Who are they?"
"Who else could be, that kid's parents." Tigu shrugged, "They were worried that the child would be left alone in the medical facility, and asked if they could take her home. But it was His Majesty's request to let her stay here. After he made up his mind, he immediately changed his words, and thanked His Majesty for his care." When he said the second half of the sentence, his tone was a little regretful, but also proud.
Wendy couldn't help laughing out loud, "Do you think anyone can break into the lord's castle for the sake of your daughter?"
She knew that what the other party was regretting was probably in the Baron's eyes. Even if it was His Majesty's request, he should not hand over his daughter easily. When Nana woke up, Tigu went directly to Roland's castle without even preparing a letter of visit. Thanks to the fourth prince's generosity and kindness, and no intention to persecute witches at all, this story has become a good talk. Otherwise, if it is replaced by the mansion of Duke Ryan or the great nobles of the Western Region, Tigu may have to suffer a lot.
Even though this happened before Wendy arrived in Border Town, she had already heard Nightingale tell it many times, and she naturally understood why Tigu's pride came from.
"Compared to A-Xia's parents, they are much better." Thinking of this, Wendy sighed softly.
It was also the daughter who was awakened as a witch. The only thing A-Xia's family thought of was the salary of the golden dragon. Not only did they eagerly send their daughter to the door, but they also ordered her to respond to His Majesty and the Witch Union, completely treating A-Xia as a sale. goods. If it weren't for the fact that Jinlong directly handed it over to them, it is estimated that this family would not allow A-Xia to go home and live.
It is precisely because of this completely different attitude that after A-Xia and the sisters became acquainted, they gradually got used to the free life of living in the witch's building, and the number of times they went back became less and less.
As a witch, she is lucky.
But as a girl, her parents turned her back on her.
"That's true," Tigu nodded. "One of them worked in the furnace area, and the other was a handyman for the construction team. They didn't know the news until after a busy day, and they ran over without eating. At least from the look on their faces. I can feel it, they still care about that kid very much."
"It seems that I don't have a vaginal discharge from this box of dinner," Wendy smiled, "Can you take me to see Sharon?"
"Come with me, of course," Tigu said, stroking his beard.
…
Although the expanded medical hospital has set up patient living quarters in accordance with His Majesty's request, few people need to actually stay in the hospital for treatment. Nana and Lily took care of almost all the illnesses in Neverwinter City, and most of the patients only needed to wait in the hall for a while before they were cured and left.
The main reason for Sharon to stay in the hospital overnight is to prevent accidents from happening. After all, the influence of the church has not been completely eliminated. It is unknown whether immigrants from all over Greycastle have accepted the idea that "witches and ordinary people can live in harmony". But looking at it now, at least Sharon no longer has to worry about being murdered by his family or homeless.
Coming to the door of a ward in the residential area, Tigu pushed open the door and beckoned to his daughter who was lying on the bedside, "It's time to eat, I'll talk to my friends later."
"Aren't we going to eat together?" Nana asked in surprise, then she saw Wendy, "Sister Wendy, you are here too."
"Well," Wendy smiled and patted the lunch box, "I brought her dinner."
"I see," the little girl suddenly realized, "then let's talk first, I'll come back later." After she said goodbye to Sharon, she followed her father out of the room.
Wendy walked to the bed, put the lunch box on the counter, turned to meet the "patient" who was looking at her with a curious face, "How does it feel to be a witch?"
The girl has very dazzling short hair, the color is like a rose that has just grown buds, which is quite rare in Graycastle. Her facial features have not yet grown, and she looks a little green, but with the awakening of magic power, the witch's appearance will gradually improve. Wendy could already imagine what she would look like in adulthood.
"I feel like there's something in my body... Miss Nana said, that's magic." Sharon pursed his lips, "Are you a witch too? Does it hurt the first time?"
"Yes, you can call me Wendy," although it sounded ambiguous, but she knew what the other person was referring to, "As for the second point, the answer is not necessarily... but that doesn't matter, as long as you learn how to use it It, magic is a part of your body, no different from hands and feet." Wendy opened the tin box and put the steaming food on the bedside table.
Sharon swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and his stomach made a series of rumbling sounds at the same time.
Her face suddenly turned red.
"Are you hungry?" Wendy smiled and brought the fresh soup made from bird's snout mushrooms to the other side.
There are a few green onions floating on the light yellow soup surface, and the circles of oil flowers are shining under the light of the stove. Compared with the bland vegetable soup, the meaty taste and the delicious soup that can almost be smelled are particularly attractive. .
According to the practice of His Majesty holding a banquet when he met a new witch, she also learned the skill of using food to stabilize people's hearts.
Sharon nodded vigorously.
"Drink the soup to warm up the stomach first, and then eat other things." Wendy said softly.
Seeing the little girl devoured it, even she felt a little hungry.
"Where's your partner? Have you gone back?"
"I don't know... it should be," Sharon said as he ate.
"She didn't come to see you?" Wendy asked in surprise.
"No..." The girl shook her head. "After all, like those who bullied her, I came from the South. She probably didn't fully believe me, did she?"
"Wait," Wendy couldn't help being stunned, "Are you from the South?"
"Yeah," she put a piece of bird's beak mushroom into her mouth, "Fenghua Town, a small town close to Eagle City... It's just that it's uninhabitable now."
"I always thought you and she were both people who moved from the east," Wendy said in surprise, "that's why you helped her."
"Isn't it okay if it's not from the same place?" Sharon blinked and replied earnestly, "The disputes between the nobles obviously have nothing to do with her, those guys are just looking for trouble. It has nothing to do with where she was born. , Wrong is wrong, if I hadn't stood up at the time, no one would have been able to correct this mistake."
Wendy was stunned for a while, and it took a while before she came back to her senses.
Perhaps your worries are overdone, Your Majesty, she thought, this child does not need my comfort.
The look in her eyes made it clear that she was sure of her choice.
