"Come, drink tea." Granny Tiejia motioned for Angel to drink tea.
Angel took a sip, the bitter taste echoed in his mouth. This was the first time he drank this kind of tea in Tiejiabao. Generally speaking, mother-in-law Tiejia prefers rose tea.
This kind of tea is somewhat like the morning dew after rain cultivated by Jon's mentor, but this kind is more bitter, and it is obviously ordinary tea.
"This is the wizard of Lab 13, who planted tea in his own tea garden. Since he left the barbaric cave, the tea garden has been handed over to my mother-in-law to take care of." Granny Tiejia smelled the fragrance of the tea, her eyes were full of Missing the expression of the past: "I was not used to drinking this kind of bitter tea before, but recently, for some reason, I like the taste more and more. Maybe it's because people are getting old and the taste is changing."
Granny Tiejia talked a lot about the tea garden, but Angel didn't interrupt. Accompanied by music and tea, her body and mind became much calmer.
According to the description of the iron-clad mother-in-law, Angel has a basic outline of the wizard in Laboratory 13, and it sounds like a person who loves tea.
After a while, Granny Tiejia finally finished talking about the tea garden.
She meditated for a while, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to Angel: "It just so happens that the wizard in Laboratory 13 has something to do with you."
Anger had doubts on his face.
Granny Tiejia smiled, the wrinkles on her face huddled together: "He, he is the earliest student accepted by Sanders, called Su Mishi. Some time ago, there was news that this kid has stepped on the road of true knowledge. , maybe, he will be back soon."
"As soon as that kid comes back, he must come to the tea garden first. He is a tea addict."
It turned out to be Su Mishi... Anger's eyes flashed with surprise. According to the relationship, this Su Mishi was indeed related to him to some extent. However, he has heard the other party's name, but the other party may not know him.
"Thank you mother-in-law." Angel sipped his tea and said with a smile.
Granny Tiejia mentioned Su Mishi unintentionally, but Angel felt that she was also mentioning something to him. In particular, Granny Tiejia also deliberately said that Su Mishi loves tea, which is simply reminding him to prepare some tea when he sees Su Mishi.
Granny Tiejia smelled the fragrance of the tea, and the tea mist covered her expression: "Thank me for what? These things are known to the outside world. I'm not talking about you."
Whether or not Granny Tiejia is making a point, it doesn't really matter. Regarding the return of this senior brother Su Mishi who had never met, Angel actually didn't care about the other party's opinion of him, but if he could maintain a good relationship with his teacher, he was willing to spend some effort to maintain it.
"At least I don't know." Angel shrugged.
Granny Tiejia sighed, "Hey, you alchemists, you just like to study and don't care about the outside world."
"Listen to mother-in-law, are you still familiar with alchemists?"
As soon as Angel's question fell, he heard the sound of "jigujigu" outside the window, as well as the regular and strange sounds of "ding, ding, ding".
Angel turned his head and looked at the closed window, only to see Toby, who had woken up at some point, flapping his wings and stopping by the Chlorophytum outside the window, tapping the glass window with his sharp beak.
"You guy." Angel burst into laughter and walked to the window.
Because he was concerned about the situation on Toby's side, he didn't notice that the iron-clad mother-in-law behind him paused for a moment.
When Angel turned around, Granny Tiejia was already sipping tea, and it looked the same as before: "Mother-in-law, can I put it in?"
"Of course, Toby, this little fellow, mother-in-law loves her dearly." Mother-in-law Tiejia put down the delicate porcelain teacup and said to Angel with a smile.
Angel opened the window, and Toby flew in immediately, not treating himself as a stranger, circling the room for a while, landed on the edge of the music box, and smiled and rolled his eyes.
"I don't know why, Toby likes to listen to music. When I came out, he was still sleeping, and now he is in good spirits. I guess he heard the music you are playing here." Angel smiled and sat back at the table. Explain to mother-in-law Tiejia.
"It turns out that little Toby likes music, then you can come often in the future, and mother-in-law can prepare some musical instruments or sheet music for you."
Angel shook his head and laughed: "Although Toby likes music, this guy is insane, and what he sings is no different from noise."
Toby yelled at Angel a few times in dissatisfaction, but the hall-level music playing in the music box quickly attracted its attention again.
"By the way, mother-in-law seems to be familiar with alchemists?" Angel remembered the question he asked not long ago.
Granny Tiejia buried her head and poured tea, her eyes flashed with emotion, she filled the tea and pushed the cup in front of Toby. Then he replied to Angel: "I'm not familiar with it."
Angel was stunned for a moment. He actually asked this question to say that the iron-clad mother-in-law has been in the source of flow for so many years. There should be many alchemists in Xeno Labs over the years, right
But he didn't expect that mother-in-law Tiejia gave him an unexpected answer.
Angel nodded and did not continue to discuss this topic. He could hear that Granny Tiejia didn't want to talk about this topic.
He sat in the tin room for a while, then got up to leave. Although he was relatively free in the past two days, he still had some things to do, such as sending the "Dream Twins" to Greya, and then he also prepared to refine the illusion for Jing Ji.
The "mermaid shell soup" that Greya gave him last time, and through the inspiration brought to him by that delicious food, he had a little insight into the illusion on Jing Ji's side. Before leaving the savage cave, I want to complete the task of handing Jing Ji to him.
Angel stood up, but Toby looked reluctant to part with the music box and turned back three steps.
Granny Tiejia laughed: "If little Toby likes it, take it. I haven't studied music, so I drink tea with music, just to have fun."
Toby's eyes lit up, but Angel slapped it on the head suddenly, and then quickly refused: "Mother-in-law doesn't need it, I can buy it at Twilight Deep Well, and I can also make it myself. Toby is just greedy. , you must not pet it, otherwise you will be arrogant, it will harm it."
Granny Tiejia thought about it, and she was right. This is not a valuable thing. As an alchemist of Angel, there is no problem whether it is refining or buying it.
Therefore, Granny Tiejia did not insist any longer.
Before leaving, Angel suddenly stood at the door and paused, then turned back to the iron-clad mother-in-law, and took out an exquisite wooden box from the bracelet.
This wooden box is made of ordinary cedar wood carvings, not even magic materials, just ordinary wood carvings.
The "bat pattern" and "cloud pattern" carved on the outside of the box are both things that are very different from the civilization of the wizarding world. The combination of these two patterns means that the sky is full of blessings.
This wooden box was carved by Jon before his hands and feet atrophied.
"There are some tea leaves from my hometown. My mother-in-law likes to drink tea. You might as well try it." Angel pushed the box to the iron-clad mother-in-law.
Granny Tiejia did not refuse either. Although she is not as addicted to tea as Su Mishi, she is also a good tea person, which is evident from her willingness to help Su Mishi take care of the tea garden.
"Hey, it's still a kind of magic plant that I haven't seen before!" Granny Tiejia opened the box, smelled the strange dry tea with a faint energy, and asked, "What kind of tea is this?"
"Morning dew after rain."
…
The reason why he sent the morning dew after the rain to Granny Tiejia was because he still had a lot of stock, and secondly, it was to repay Granny Tiejia for telling him about Su Mishi's hobby. Although as Granny Tiejia said, everyone knew about Su Mishi's hobbies, but Angel never thought to inquire about Su Mishi's information. If Granny Tiejia didn't tell him, he might not know it in the future.
In the end, he also wanted to see how someone like Granny Tiejia who had studied tea would give her opinion on the morning dew after the rain. If the evaluation is good, he can take this tea as a gift to Su Mi Shi.
Back at Xeno Labs, Angel took Toby and left the source of flow after washing up.
He didn't go to the Magic Island for the first time, but turned on the special effect of the bracelet - boundless silence, weakened the sense of existence, and walked towards the underground trading market.
Angel was still a little concerned about the pirated music box. Since Granny Tiejia said that this music box was very popular recently in the deep twilight, David should know about it, so he was going to go over and ask about the situation. In addition, Nausicaa and Sairum are not in the Savage Cave now, and only David can be called a good friend among their peers. Angel also plans to gather with David in the past.
Along the way, Angel often heard someone mention his name, either because of his deeds in purifying the garden, or because of his talent in alchemy. It can be said that even though Angel has been back for two months, his reputation is not yet there. The complete subsidence is still chanted among the apprentices.
But what these people didn't know was that when they were talking about Angel's name, Angel himself passed by them generously, and no one noticed his existence.
When Angel came to the Prome alchemy shop, he found a bunch of people standing at the door.
There are very few people who come to Prome's alchemy shop on weekdays, but suddenly there are so many people, Angel estimates that the alchemy works of Prome master are on the shelves.
But what he didn't expect was that his guess was wrong. Today is not the work of Master Prome, but...
"Mr. David, do you have any more?" A fat man with a fat head and ears took the disposable space soft bag and checked it with his mental power tentacles, and his face immediately showed a bitter gourd-like expression.
David, who was wearing goggles, raised his face: "No, no, I'm researching new standard weapons recently, and I don't have much time to refine this kind of gadget."
"Mr. David..." Someone begged: "Our alchemy team is counting on your cargo this time. I can't explain it with these three knives..."
"That's your business, I can only refine so much, love it or not."
Although David had a stern face, it was not difficult to see his smug look in his bare eyes.
David waved his hand: "It's all gone, you guys hurry up, I'm going to close the store early today. Even if you stay here, you won't have any stock."
Seeing that David had made up his mind, many people who took the goods dispersed in a burst of mourning.
After everyone left, David showed a complacent look, hummed a little tune, and prepared to go back to the store to close the door and go to the Butterfly Bar to have a good meal.
At this moment, David suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ear.
Although it was a clear and elegant voice, David could hear a hint of joking.
"Mr. David, have your skills improved a lot recently?"
